Chapter 3639: 4.1239 Wasted Effort

Mo Lian's heart stirred, and he leaped into the crack. His Dark Moon Sword sliced at the defensive wall in front of him several times, but it couldn't budge it an inch.

What a powerful defensive wall, Mo Lian thought.

There were truly few defensive walls in this world that could withstand his full-strength attacks.

One person, one dragon, and one green vine spent a long time in the pit, clanging and banging. It was almost dawn, but the array remained completely unmoved.

All three felt a bit deflated, especially the small tree's branch, which drooped limply and played dead on Mo Lian's arm.

Mo Lian couldn't help but find it a little amusing.

This fellow was just a branch from the main body of Little Tree Qiaoqiao, yet it was so sentient.

"Master, the person who set up this array is incredibly powerful," Yan Qi blinked and couldn't help but say. "Earlier, when that guy's physical body was destroyed by your sword, I thought he wasn't that formidable! I didn't expect that while his cultivation wasn't great, his talisman arrays were extremely powerful!"

"You think this array was set up by that guy?"

Mo Lian curled his lips, glancing sideways at Yan Qi.

Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, then immediately exclaimed, "It wasn't?"

"No," Mo Lian shook his head, pointing to the dozens of jade talismans below. "Judging by the quality of these jade talismans, they must have been buried here for at least twenty to thirty years."

"This is a series of powerful arrays left behind by a Heaven-grade Grand Talisman Master," Mo Lian said faintly.

"That guy from Heavenly Fortune merely stumbled upon a bargain, accidentally glimpsing this talisman array."

"He made a few minor modifications to the original array, forming the outer Earth Spirit Grand Array and an inner array with extremely strong defenses."

"So, this array wasn't set up by that guy from Heavenly Fortune at all?" Yan Qi asked, surprised.

Mo Lian nodded with certainty. "If he had such array-setting capabilities, he wouldn't have been so easily killed by me initially."

"Then who left this array behind?"

"This array was likely left to protect the Sacred Vein beneath," Mo Lian sighed. "If Qiao Qiao were here, she should be able to break it."

Relying solely on brute force wasn't impossible, but the time and effort it would take would probably be too long.

He needed to get out as soon as possible. As for these external objects...

Ugh, he could send people back to work on it later.

Having made up his mind, Mo Lian no longer wasted time and directly had Little Seven shatter the outer Earth Spirit Grand Array.

This array disc was suspended above dozens of jade talismans and was already somewhat shattered.

Little Seven's punch basically broke it down effortlessly, directly dismantling the array disc.

Mo Lian then picked up the green vine and leaped onto the crack with Little Seven.

The ground beneath them immediately trembled. Rocks from the mountain wall seemed to respond to some call, rolling down one after another.

Soon, the crack that Little Seven had clawed open was completely blocked.

After the Earth Spirit Grand Array was completely destroyed, the array disc's suction power naturally ceased to exist.

Little Seven transformed into a dragon and ascended to the sky, carrying Mo Lian towards the outside of the deep valley.

Crown Prince Mo stood on the dragon's back, gazing out towards the deep valley, his eyes fixed on the Sacred Vein buried beneath countless boulders. He pursed his lips, silent for a long time.

Meanwhile, at Taiji Palace in Cangzhou

Hurried footsteps caused Duan Yue, who was meditating, to frown slightly and slowly open his eyes.

A young eunuch rushed in, panting, and repeatedly called out, "Your Highness, the Noble Consort has returned!"

"Noble Consort is injured!"
