In addition, due to having a short learning period, he wasn't completely confident in dealing with the opponent.
So the best method he could use right now was to wait.
As long as reinforcements arrived, with two Awakeners here, they shouldn't fear any waves the opponent might cause.
The Dark Energy within the statue stirred for a moment, but seeing Ye Yunxiu unresponsive, it stopped on its own without any further movement.
Time passed by, second by second.
After waiting for less than a minute, he suddenly felt a familiar aura coming from beside him.
Turning his head, he saw that Zhang Xiaoman was already standing to his left.
"Star Lord? Why did you come in person!"
Ye Yunxiu exclaimed in surprise; he hadn't expected the Communication Butterfly he released would summon his own boss.
He initially thought that just having any Awakener come would suffice.
Even if it was a member who had just completed the Enlightenment Ceremony, the two of them together could deal with this statue.
But unexpectedly, it was his own boss who came.
Now there's nothing to worry about, with the boss stepping in, he believed that even if the opponent had three heads and six arms, it could only surrender.
"I just happened to be nearby, received the Communication Butterfly you released, and came directly. Did you encounter a troublesome Alien Species?"
Zhang Xiaoman said as he surveyed the surroundings.
Without any movement, his eyes suddenly emitted golden light, having already surveyed the environment thoroughly.
"Seems like we're atop that mountain peak, the issue you mentioned, is it the statue over there?"
Ye Yunxiu nodded:
"That's right, this statue looks very peculiar. In the entire mountaintop palace, it's the only presence with Dark Energy, and after I appeared, its Dark Energy fluctuated. I suspect it might be a Dark Spiritual Artifact."
He quickly explained what he learned on the way to Zhang Xiaoman.
What he referred to as Dark Spiritual Artifact naturally was those items possessing Dark Energy Fluctuation.
For instance, the Mystic Weapon Weapon used by Star Alliance Awakeners is a Dark Spirit Weapon.
Zhang Xiaoman listened to him then pondered for a moment, suddenly shook his head, and said:
"No, this isn't a Dark Spirit Weapon; it should be..."
As he spoke, he walked closer to the statue voluntarily.
Ye Yunxiu instinctively wanted to remind.
But then suddenly realized that before him was the boss of the Star Alliance, his worries were entirely unnecessary, swallowing back the words caught in his throat.
Not far away, the statue sensed Zhang Xiaoman's approach and once again emitted Dark Energy Fluctuation, seeming quite eager.
"He's trying to communicate with me... I understand, seems you've been Sealed for a long time..."
Zhang Xiaoman perceived the emotions conveyed by the statue, thoughts brewing in his mind.
Ye Yunxiu, hearing this, slightly widened his eyes.
"Star Lord, your, your meaning is..."
"That's right, this isn't a statue, but a living being that's been Sealed."
After Zhang Xiaoman spoke, he scrutinized the giant dwarf over five meters tall, adding:
"Well, let's assume he's human for now..."
He lifted off the ground, floating before the statue's head.
Raising his hand, he released several Dark Energy Techniques which penetrated into the statue.
However, after waiting for a while, he realized that the Formulas he just used had no effect; the statue remained as still as ever, with no response.
"Healing, repairing, breaking don't work; perhaps it needs to be smashed open directly?"
Zhang Xiaoman muttered to himself. Then a voice suddenly echoed in his Divine Thought.
"Kid, this is a Heavenly Immortal Level Seal. Given your current Strength, don't even think of breaking it. Though you could smash it open, whether the sealed person survives is up in the air."
Zhang Xiaoman raised an eyebrow and responded:
"Ni Yang, you seem quite knowledgeable about this? Do you know how to break it?"
"Heh heh heh, as the strongest Divine Beast in the Immortal Realm, how could I not break a mere Heavenly Immortal Seal? Let alone when it's a broken Prohibition from a thousand years ago."
"If it were in my prime, I wouldn't even spare a glance at such things; even standing still for them to seal me wouldn't succeed."
Seeing him brag again at every chance, Zhang Xiaoman felt slightly helpless.
Ni Yang's Primordial Spirit was housed in the Sect Leader Jade.
When he wore the Jade and returned to Water Blue Star, he found Ni Yang had followed, and could communicate as usual.
Essentially, Ni Yang had bypassed the Ten Thousand Tribulations Soul Locking Array using another method, leaving the Divine Ancient Star.
Unable to endure Ni Yang's chatter, sometimes he would lift the ban on its Divine Thought, allowing it to occasionally "breathe some fresh air," experiencing this completely different world.
Though the old dragon did tend to be quite verbose.
A few exchanged words soon led to bragging, causing Zhang Xiaoman to shut it down again.
"Enough, Ni Yang, since you have a way to lift the Seal, try it out then. Breaking his Prohibition can help me ask about this mountain."
He started urging.
"Tch, kid, you need me now? I told you to show me more respect usually, but you wouldn't listen. I'm not in the mood for this now; try solving it yourself."
Zhang Xiaoman felt a headache, then communicated through Divine Thought, threatening:
"Ni Yang, do you think I'm easy-going? Can you break it or not? If not, you can forget about reading Journey to the West anymore."
At the mention of Journey to the West, Ni Yang's expression immediately stiffened.
The green little dragon in the Jade adopted an urgent look, saying:
"No, no, no, I've been bored for thousands of years; how can you deprive me of my sole amusement!"
Zhang Xiaoman smirked.
"Then hurry and break this Seal. You said it's not worth a glance, so cracking it shouldn't pose difficulty."
The green little dragon's face changed to an embarrassed look and said:
"Well... didn't I say earlier... that was in my prime; sealed for thousands of years, the scars from the Execution Immortal Sword Formation haven't healed, there's little strength left to break a Seal..."
Zhang Xiaoman heard this and gave a knowing look.
He wasn't expecting help, prepared to think of another way himself.
Ni Yang, though, grew anxious, afraid of losing access to his novels, hastily added:
"Hey kid, don't rush off. I do have another method, but can't say if you can implement it."
"Me?"
Zhang Xiaoman looked confused.
"You mean, for me to break the Seal?"
The green little dragon nodded seriously.
"Correct! Exactly for you to break it."
"This might be a Heavenly Immortal Level Prohibition, but time's passage has loosened it, likely if you don't attempt to break it, it might naturally unlock in a few decades."
"Although I can't use Strength to assist you now, I can tell you the method. You should be able to unlock it following my instructions."
After hearing it, Zhang Xiaoman understood the intention, nodding agreement immediately.
"Kid, you're in luck; my method surpasses Mortal World Cultivation Techniques. Learn this trick, and you'll be able to crack Seals below Golden Immortal Level henceforth."
"Of course, success depends on your own Strength. Don't force it, or retaliation is guaranteed."
The green little dragon said, while drawing complex shapes in the Divine Thought, continuing:
"Kid, remember this—it's called Illusion-breaking Divine Power. Given your current Strength, you can't fully wield it yet, I'll first teach you a weakened version, and whether you can grasp it depends on your Talent."
