**Chapter 1544: Did He Really Discover Something?**

Lin Moyu was initially puzzled as to why the guardian beast collapsed on its own before he even made a move. Looking at the Skeletal Hell he had summoned and the still-operating array in the sky, Lin Moyu suddenly understood why this happened.

The four domain lords were also baffled, unable to comprehend the situation. With their vast knowledge, they couldn't make sense of it.

Ye Qingxuan, with a puzzled expression, asked, "Did any of you understand what happened?"

Shui Bing'er shook her head, "I don't understand. It's too strange. Could there be a problem with the simulated spirit array?"

Zhu Tian said in a low voice, "The simulated spirit array wouldn't malfunction. If it did, it wouldn't just happen here."

Wu Da was equally confused, "This is truly bizarre. In all my years, I've never seen anything like this."

Suddenly, a powerful aura surged, making the four domain lords feel a sudden pressure.

Xu Laozu's gaze was fixed on Lin Moyu, his voice deep, "So that's how it is."

The four domain lords knew Xu Laozu must have figured something out. Shui Bing'er couldn't help but ask, "Sir, did you see something?"

Xu Laozu's voice carried a heavy authority, "You don't need to know."

With that, their curiosity was stifled, and they knew better than to ask further. Shui Bing'er closed her mouth, and the four exchanged glances, realizing it was beyond their understanding and strength.

Lin Moyu had figured out the reason. The guardian beast wasn't born out of thin air; it was a product of the array, which gathered a large amount of laws and energy to simulate its existence. In other words, without the support of the array, the guardian beast couldn't exist. When he used the Skeletal Hell, the guardian beast was essentially transported to another world, severing its connection with the array. Without the array's support and its source of power, the guardian beast collapsed without Lin Moyu needing to lift a finger. This revealed a flaw in the array.

As long as another dimension was used to isolate it, any entity simulated by the array, no matter how strong, would collapse on its own.

"This is a significant issue. If not addressed, the array will have substantial limitations."

"The current array is far from perfect and has many problems that need fixing."

"It seems we are being used as test subjects to evaluate the array's combat capabilities."

Lin Moyu not only understood why the guardian beast disappeared but also saw through the intentions of the higher-ups. Using the Four Star Domains Competition to test the array was indeed a clever method. Now, one problem had been identified, and it wasn't a minor one. If this issue wasn't resolved, the array couldn't be used in real combat. There were too many ways to isolate space.

As the Skeletal Hell dissipated, the array seemed to sense the guardian beast's destruction, and a beam of light descended from the sky, illuminating the stone tablet. A token fell from the light, and Lin Moyu caught it.

With the token in hand, he could now leave the arena and advance to the next stage. However, he wasn't in a hurry to move on. He wanted to observe the array and the soul flames further, conducting more experiments to verify his hypotheses.

Lin Moyu stayed put, waiting for the next enemy to appear. Meanwhile, the skeleton generals continued searching for stone tablets. Lin Moyu needed to battle more guardian beasts to further test his theories.

His actions caught the attention of the domain lords. Compared to the sudden death of the guardian beast, they were even more puzzled by Lin Moyu's behavior.

Wu Da asked, "He has the token, so why hasn't he left?"

Ye Qingxuan speculated, "Is he planning to sell his token again like before?"

Shui Bing'er disagreed, "No, it doesn't look like that. It seems he's waiting for something."

The three looked at Zhu Tian, who remained silent, revealing nothing.

Xu Laozu's eyes sparkled with insight, "This kid, could he have really discovered something..."

Meanwhile, Zhuang Bi and his group of five worked together to defeat their enemies. Shui Zilan's little red spirit successfully found three stone tablets. They chose the nearest stone tablet and rushed over as soon as the battle ended.

During the fight, Shui Xing played a crucial role. Like Shui Zilan's shadow, she remained silent and almost invisible. If she didn't speak, even Zhuang Bi and the others might overlook her presence. However, in battle, Shui Xing displayed astonishing healing abilities. Her mastery of the Spring Water Law allowed her to rejuvenate everything, providing powerful healing and defense.

Any minor injuries they sustained were easily healed by Shui Xing, ensuring their combat readiness without needing rest. After the battle, they headed straight for the stone tablet.

Upon reaching the stone tablet, they made some adjustments. Chu Xiong patted Shui Xing's shoulder, "Brother Shui Xing, your healing skills are amazing. If we had someone like you on the battlefield back then, we would have been much safer."

Shui Xing seemed uncomfortable with Chu Xiong's touch, stepping back without saying a word.

Chu Xiong, puzzled, said, "Brother Shui Xing, don't be so shy. Why don't you speak?"

Shui Zilan's clear voice chimed in, "Shui Xing is my junior sister. She doesn't like to talk much."

Chu Xiong's raised hand froze mid-air.

Zhuang Bi couldn't help but laugh, and Qing Fei's face turned red, trying to suppress her laughter.

Shui Xing was always shrouded in a layer of water mist, obscuring her figure and features. She spoke so rarely that her voice, altered by the water mist, made it hard to discern her gender.

Chu Xiong, feeling embarrassed, scratched his head, "Uh... Sister Shui Xing, I'm really sorry. I'm a bit rough around the edges; please don't mind."

Shui Xing remained silent, standing behind Shui Zilan.

After making some adjustments, Zhuang Bi activated the stone tablet. The array activated, and a massive energy descended from the sky, causing their faces to change.

They realized the guardian beast was very strong and could summon other enemies, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

Qing Fei gripped her sword tightly, "Let's stick to our plan. If the guardian beast summons enemies, I'll hold them off while you eliminate them as quickly as possible."

They had discussed various scenarios and were prepared for most situations, minimizing the chances of unexpected events.

A lion-tiger-like guardian beast formed in the air, exuding the aura of a peak minor god, accompanied by a powerful pressure that shook the heavens and earth.

The battle was about to begin.

On the other side, Lin Moyu closely observed the array. He saw the previously calm array suddenly accelerate its operation. The mysterious runes behind the array also began to tremble.

With his soul power fully restored, Lin Moyu's soul eyes opened again, observing the changes in the runes. Understanding these runes required repeated observation. Although the process was challenging, Lin Moyu was undeterred. He had faced many challenges before and always persevered.
