Chapter 773
"When did this person reach the second checkpoint?!"
"Yeah, the competition just started not long ago. How could he possibly be at the second checkpoint so quickly?"
"Exactly, it's only been half a day since the competition began. To pass the first checkpoint in half a day, what does that even mean? You know, in previous competitions, the fastest record to pass the first checkpoint took twenty days!"
"Who is this person? Which sect does he belong to?"
In an instant, the lesser sect elders, seeing the marker moving on the second level of the Stellar River Map, exclaimed in utter disbelief.
Luo Yuan glanced at them and sneered coldly.
If you're shocked by this, what will you do when you find out this guy not only reached the second checkpoint but even went back and forth at the first checkpoint? You'll probably be so shocked your jaws will drop off.
After a brief moment of astonishment, the venue fell into silence.
Everyone looked up at the Stellar River Map.
The second level of the Sacred Mountain Crypt, like the first, had its array in a semi-activated state.
The labyrinthine architecture blocked the five senses of cultivators, making it difficult to find the true exit.
Additionally, there were randomly distributed nests of demon beasts scattered throughout the second level, with varying levels of strength.
To pass through, one needed to find the correct path while ensuring they didn't encounter a powerful demon beast.
Of course, if you accidentally ran into a powerful beast and it was asleep without noticing you, that was also possible.
Therefore, to escape the second checkpoint, a significant amount of luck was needed.
After all, in the path of cultivation, luck is considered one of the manifestations of strength, a widely accepted concept with no objections.
Under the condition that the array wasn't fully activated, it was already challenging to get through. If the array were entirely activated, not only would various killing arrays and traps be triggered, but all the demon beasts would also be forcibly awakened, entering a berserk state.
At that time, trying to get through would be like reaching for the sky.
Time passed bit by bit.
Zeng Xian remained silent, and no one else dared to speak.
Everyone was waiting for Yi Feng to emerge.
"Damn it!"
Finally, after waiting half a day, Zeng Xian couldn't hold back and swore.
He had thought Yi Feng would come out soon, but to his surprise, Yi Feng had been going around the same area for over ten laps.
Zeng Xian's face darkened.
What the hell? In the first checkpoint, you teleported.
Now at the second checkpoint, when everyone was waiting for you to come out, you've been circling the same spot.
He was so angry his beard bristled, and he finally couldn't take it anymore, shouting, "Can we lower the difficulty for him, or just clear the labyrinth?" ℞ÃNÒBĘS
Nearby, Wang Yiyun and others lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Zeng Xian twitched his lips.
He knew it himself; that was just a thoughtless statement in his moment of frustration.
Once the array of the Sacred Mountain Crypt was activated, all arrays and traps couldn't be controlled or altered, only following the set template.
The reason for this was to prevent the possibility of future sect disasters, where if the entire sect retreated here and was attacked, internal traitors could not be allowed to alter the array and let enemies in.
If that happened, the existence of the Sacred Mountain Crypt would be meaningless.
Under such immutable rules, unless they collectively exerted their powers to shut down the array, anyone entering or leaving had to pass through the challenges of the array.
So.
Apart from waiting for Yi Feng to come out on his own, they had no other options.
As they hoped against hope, Yi Feng finally left that area.
In less than a breath's time.
The marker of the Baiwei Holy Tiger vanished...
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Seeing this, Zeng Xian's eyes widened, and he erupted in rage.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
In his anger, the ground around him exploded.
"This damn beast, he's doing this on purpose. The Baiwei Holy Tiger, it's my mount, MY MOUNT!"
Zeng Xian bellowed.
Below him, everyone stood in silence, not daring to utter a word.
As for those from the lesser sects, they were too frightened to speak.
On one hand, they feared Zeng Xian's rage, and on the other, they were amazed that the person in the second checkpoint was so terrifying that he had even killed the Tianba Sect's Baiwei Holy Tiger.
"Old Ancestor, please calm down, don't get angry."
Luo Yuan hurriedly consoled him, "Look, this person's path is totally random, having no specific purpose, it's probably really just a coincidence."
"Yes, Old Ancestor. Although his route has encountered many of our sect's contract beasts, he has been looping, if he really were doing this on purpose, he wouldn't be circling but would have aimed straight for these contract beasts." Wang Yiyun also consoled.
After rounds of soothing, and with Zeng Xian's good temperament, he finally calmed down somewhat.
But as luck would have it, Yi Feng's next path was straight towards the next guardian beast.
The Rainbow Butcher.
Dead.
Yi Feng then went straight towards the next guardian beast.
The Golden Taurus.
Dead.
Then, he moved towards the next one.
In no time, five of the Tianba Sect's guardian beasts had vanished from the markers.
"This damn, damn, damn, he's absolutely doing this on purpose!"
Zeng Xian pointed at the Stellar River Map and cursed, his boundless anger radiating from him as his voice trembled, "I have to kill him, I absolutely have to kill him."
Zeng Xian almost cried.
To these elders, they had no idea how important these guardian beasts were to the Tianba Sect.
But he, as the old ancestor, knew everything clearly.
These were the fruit of the Tianba Sect's countless years of effort, one of their foundations for countless years!
"Everyone, listen up! Channel your energy to me! I'm going to activate the entire array of the Sacred Mountain Crypt!"
"Once the entire array is activated, let's see how you run, how you keep moving around..."
Saying so, Zeng Xian immediately took action.
At this moment, he was so eager to skin Yi Feng alive and extract his tendons!
