While Yingu and Old Master Mei were chatting, Liu Zixuan was doing something significant!
He felt that this significant event could be a story to brag about to his beautiful master for a whole year!
Back when he teased his beautiful master and didn't want to descend the mountain, she trapped him within an array with needles. At that time, he had little understanding of arrays and couldn't even break out of such a small array!
However, since descending the mountain, with the advancement of the cultivation technique and obtaining the Array Secret Manual from the first Seven-Star Tomb, he gained a deeper understanding of arrays!
This time, facing countless small arrays within the heavily mechanized trap, Liu Zixuan avoided the attacks of hidden weapons and the torment of water and fire. In a critical moment, he finally figured out the mechanics of this trap!
Under the X-ray Vision, all the mechanisms were visible, and the source of the hidden weapons and the mediators of water and fire were the four pipes protruding from the walls!
After some research, Liu Zixuan realized that without these mediators, the hidden weapons and water and fire inside would not be as powerful!
It's like fighting with a certain wild beast; if you could blind it, it would fall into chaos instantly, giving you a chance to find a way and strike it down!
Now that Liu Zixuan knew the crucial point of the mechanism, he naturally began to take action!
The shock of Yingu and Old Master Mei came from seeing Liu Zixuan already destroying those four iron pipes!
The four iron pipes took a lot of effort from Liu Zixuan, but he finally wrenched them down from where they were on the wall.
He grinned widely: "Now you're just a blind thing, let's see how you still have the guts to mess with me!"
What a damned Hell, today I'll break through it and really don't believe you can take my life!
"I didn't expect you to understand arrays!" At that moment, Old Master Mei's voice suddenly rang out.
Liu Zixuan's lips curled into a smirk; "What? Came out, now that I've blinded your Mechanical Array's eyes?"
Speaking, Liu Zixuan continued to scan the surroundings with his X-ray Vision, but this time he truly saw Old Master Mei's appearance!
He was in an office on his left front side.
Old Master Mei said with a darkened face: "Don't think this will change your fate today! Liu Zixuan, you're doomed to die!"
As Old Master Mei's voice faded, suddenly a series of clattering sounds emerged from the walls around.
It seemed like many things were about to suddenly come out!
Zhou Nian was so frightened he ran from the corner of the wall to Liu Zixuan's side: "Senior, what... what's happening?"
"Don't panic!" Zhou Nian couldn't see inside the walls, but Liu Zixuan could.
The gears inside the walls were spinning rapidly, and all the hidden weapons were tightly wound on the strings!
Seeing this, Liu Zixuan suddenly turned and hugged Zhou Nian!
"Sen…" Zhou Nian just opened his mouth, when suddenly a chill passed by his ear!
Countless flying knives, steel spikes, and some unheard-hidden weapons shot directly at them from all sides of the walls.
There were so many flying knives and steel spikes that you couldn't even count them with your eyes!
It was like a sudden downpour, offering no place to hide!
Holding Zhou Nian, Liu Zixuan quickly spun around the break room, using anything he could to shield from those hidden weapons.
But all the items in the break room were too fragile, and those hidden weapons were specially crafted, fiercely powerful, they couldn't stay at any place for even two seconds before needing to find a new spot!
Thud!
A flying knife pierced directly into Liu Zixuan's back!
Sizzle!
As a steel needle aimed at Zhou Nian's back, Liu Zixuan promptly shifted positions with Zhou Nian, blocking a hit with his arm!
Beyond these two obvious hidden weapons, Liu Zixuan's back and arms were already covered in dozens of hidden weapon stab and scrape wounds!
Zhou Nian was holding onto Liu Zixuan's waist, clearly feeling that Liu Zixuan's back was already soaked with blood!
"Zixuan, your injuries!" This time, Zhou Nian didn't call him senior, but instead called out Zixuan!
Because, at this moment, Liu Zixuan was evidently her guardian, not just a senior more knowledgeable in medical skills!
Tears involuntarily flowed down; she hated her own powerlessness, hated that she couldn't help Liu Zixuan at all and was just a burden to him!
"Don't speak!" Liu Zixuan's expression stern, there was no room for any distraction, he was fully focused, eyes perceived everything and ears listened intently as he needed to concentrate his senses, using perception to feel the hidden weapons behind and X-ray Vision to see those in front!
In such a situation, there was definitely no time for talking!
Zhou Nian, anxious, sheltered within Liu Zixuan's embrace, tears streaming uncontrollably, her mind flashed repeatedly with the thought of pushing away Liu Zixuan, to shield those hidden weapons for him!
But Liu Zixuan's arms were not something she could push away!
Liu Zixuan frowned deeply, despite being able to clearly see the hidden weapons with X-ray Vision, he couldn't tell how many hidden weapons hadn't been fired yet!
However, when he had carefully observed the direction of the hidden weapons around them, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he revealed a smile.
Holding Zhou Nian, he took a running start toward the left-front wall and suddenly leaped, grabbing onto the large light above!
"Phew!" Liu Zixuan silently exhaled: "Thankfully, the direction of the hidden weapons' firing line is only within our height; the ceiling area allows us a little space to catch a breath!"
"Senior… do you… hear a sound?" Zhou Nian tightly clutching Liu Zixuan's clothes corner suddenly asked.
Liu Zixuan listened carefully around them.
Rumble!
A series of loud noises suddenly rang out.
Then, Old Master Mei's voice also came over: "Liu Zixuan, go to Hell!"
Crack!
Crack!
Rumble!
Suddenly, the surface of the surrounding walls began to break; those gears receded backward, and the iron plates, full of steel spikes, closed in on Liu Zixuan and Zhou Nian.
These iron plates covered with steel spikes went from the ceiling to the floor, equivalent to the four walls closing in on Liu Zixuan.
All covered with steel spikes, unreachable, giving no gap to escape!
As the four iron plates spiked completely collided, Liu Zixuan and Zhou Nian would either be impaled by the steel spikes or crushed to death by the iron plates!
A desperate situation!
This was the moment closest to death!
Zhou Nian, clutching Liu Zixuan's clothes corner: "Let me go, while they haven't closed together yet, with your abilities, you could escape, don't worry about me."
"Stop saying nonsense, it's not the end yet!" Liu Zixuan said solemnly.
"Zixuan, thank God for letting me meet you, also for allowing me to experience such a profound moment, apart from my father, there's another man willing to risk his life to save me, that's enough to satisfy me isn't it?"
