Cultivation : I'm an Ancient Giant Bear

Chapter 202: The Silent Showdown


"The Human Race is really impressive!"

Wang Wu couldn't help but marvel. The closer he observed, the more detailed and clear the spiritual energy fluctuations he perceived, and the more shocking it became!

This wasn't a single kind of array, but a large, complex formation he had never seen before.

With his current stealth level, he definitely couldn't get through it.

"The red lines of spiritual energy should represent the sky blockade. Unless I can fly up to a hundred thousand meters, there's no way to cross it."

"The dark green lines represent the underground blockage. If I dare to dig my way through, I'll definitely get caught and pay the price!"

"The water-blue lines signify the blockade of water areas. Rivers, streams, and even underground rivers are all monitored here."

"The purple, ink-like objects are most likely a sword array."

"The golden lines with flowing light resemble lightning."

"Furthermore, there are many free-floating traps deployed in front of the array. Whether I'm invisible or not, any contact will surely activate them."

"Also, I think there must be an Old Tree Spirit like Elder Song here. If I dare to use the Hundred-Change Ruyi Demon Leaf, I will be discovered."

"Damn, even the Maginot Line wasn't this excessive!"

Wang Wu couldn't help but complain, but he was also stirred by a strong desire to win.

This was indeed a special war. As long as he could break out of this encirclement, he could fiercely smack Lu Wuchen's old face!

He might even help the Great Snow Mountain Battlefield hold out a little longer.

"This is clearly a line of blockade deployed by professional Human Race array geniuses. It's almost perfect, almost leaving no blind spot. I can't get through this."

After half an hour of observation, Wang Wu reached a detailed conclusion. However, instead of feeling disheartened, he felt more confident. He withdrew and moved southward.

He was in no hurry. Instead, he carefully and patiently searched for an opportunity.

During the day, he remained hidden, and at night, he observed closely, moving southward a hundred or two hundred miles.

After four or five days passed this way, he had moved nearly seven hundred miles south.

He then verified his hypothesis, as he discovered another complex, multi-functional large formation blockade line.

This overlapped a hundred miles with the first large formation blockade line, clearly to prevent any loopholes.

Besides, in this hundred-mile-long overlapping area of the formations, there was a team of five Human Race cultivators stationed and patrolling, coordinating with them were five lifebound spirit beasts.

It was quite ridiculous.

However, Wang Wu saw through their bravado to the weakness within.

Yes, based on his long period of close observation, the loophole was in the overlap area.

He didn't know how the Human Race's array experts arranged and adjusted the overlap area.

But Wang Wu, utilizing his Level 12 Spirit Essence, could indeed observe every slight change in spiritual energy.

He didn't need to understand any principles or show off any skills. He just observed directly.

"Having two formations overlap is indeed a good solution to avoid loopholes as much as possible. However, such overlap will also cause some spiritual energy changes, leading to a certain degree of distortion in the spiritual energy field. And that's my opportunity!"

"Of course, it's also possible that this is a trap, so continued observation is needed."

Wang Wu was really not in a hurry. He instead calmed down and lay low across from the formation overlap area.

During the day, he cultivated his Ice and Fire Dual Spirit Roots, and at night, he observed closely, memorizing every kind of spiritual energy change.

Although the combination of formation spiritual energy changes was extremely complex and extremely advanced and mysterious, eventually, Wang Wu could still grasp its essence and use sufficient time to memorize it bit by bit.

Three months, five months, twelve months!

Indeed, hard work pays off. When Wang Wu cultivated his Ice and Fire Dual Spirit Roots to a progress of 14/50, it was also at the end of the fifteenth spring that he completely memorized the spiritual energy changes in the overlapping area of the two large formations.

Of course, this didn't mean he understood the core of the formations, nor did it mean he could infer by analogy to deploy formations himself.

He simply used the most foolish method to remember all related changes and found the loophole through which he could pass.

It was a small-scale spiritual energy ripple caused by the overlap of formations. When this spiritual energy ripple occurred, the detection perception of the adjacent two formations would be reduced to the lowest.

So theoretically, as long as Wang Wu could ensure he landed precisely within this spiritual energy ripple each time, or if he could produce a small spiritual energy ripple, he could successfully pass through the formation overlap area and get out of this terrifying encirclement!

Thus,

to calculate the occurrence pattern of the spiritual energy ripples and to simulate the ripples, he continued to wait for another three months.

Until he had all the spiritual energy ripple variations clearly in mind.

Then on a usual night, after Wang Wu once again approached the overlap area, he didn't stop this time but continued to approach.

When a spiritual energy ripple seemed to occur disorderly, Wang Wu, under the spiritual energy light membrane, instantly cut in!

The spiritual energy light membrane was destroyed in an instant, but it also created a brief interference effect, lasting not even 0.1 seconds.

But that was enough for Wang Wu to reach the first spiritual energy ripple.

In this process, cutting into a spiritual energy ripple wasn't really difficult! Any demon or Human Race cultivator with some strength and under the spiritual energy light membrane could do it.

Because the spiritual energy light membrane itself has the function of briefly interfering with arrays.

But the problem is, one interference might not be too obvious, but two interferences would be a bit suspicious, and three interferences would definitely trigger an alarm.

In other words, you can only pass in one go.

You can only use the Spiritual Energy Light Membrane interference once.

Then, you have to ensure each step just happens to tread into the Spiritual Energy Ripples.

This is a game with a simple logic, but an explosively difficult execution!

Because the arrays are operating every moment, with thousands of changes every second, and only the overlap of two arrays creates Spiritual Energy Ripples.

You must accurately predict where the next moment's Spiritual Energy Ripples will occur?

What changes will happen in the next moment?

This is absolutely not a matter of counteracting each move, because it's simply impossible!

So you have to memorize all changes in advance, master all the patterns.

For the deployers of these two arrays, this might be an unimaginable impossibility.

This has nothing to do with how strong your memory is!

Even if you have a photographic memory, can recite it backward!

Sorry, it won't help.

No matter how amazing your memory is, can you calculate how many bacteria are in a drop of water? What their movement patterns are?

And Wang Wu can precisely do this.

At this moment, the Spiritual Energy Ripples where he was standing only vibrated for a second before disappearing, yet Wang Wu did not hesitate in the slightest, taking a side step to just barely graze the trailing edge of the Spiritual Energy Ripples, cutting into the second Spiritual Energy Ripples neither sooner nor later.

In reality, it was still a tiny bit late, just barely brushed by the array, but Wang Wu at this moment had the highest Passive Concealment Level, providing an extremely high margin for error in a very short amount of time.

In other words, only he can play this game.

And in this second Spiritual Energy Ripples, Wang Wu once again turned instantaneously and stepped precisely into the third move.

He remembered the occurrence, vibration, and dissipation patterns of the Spiritual Energy Ripples clearly.

Every detail needed to be utilized.

But inevitably, each time there was a split-second where the array would directly sweep across.

Even if someone else could clearly note all the patterns of the Spiritual Energy Ripples, they would be eliminated on the first step.

Of course, it's only in the array overlap zone that Wang Wu could find and exploit such a loophole.

If it weren't the array overlap zone, he too would be taken out on the first step.

There would be no exceptions.

Next, Wang Wu moved swiftly through the array overlap zone like a butterfly dancing among the flowers, stepping stably and precisely into sixty-five Spiritual Energy Ripples in less than thirty seconds, and then directly leaping out of the overlap zone.

And in this area little more than ten meters wide, it really felt like passing through hell.

Wang Wu was so tense that cold sweat broke out on his back.

Because any slight mistake would have him discovered instantly, alerting everyone.

The rest of the matter would depend on whether Lu Wuchen would be willing to accept an obedient and cute little Xiong Xiong as a pet.

But now, Wang Wu only wanted to laugh out loud at the sky!

This contest was destined to be silent and unnoticed!

King does not meet king!

Even Lu Wuchen himself would take many years to realize he lost this match long ago.

Only then might he understand that man conquering heaven is but a mirage.

And right now, Wang Wu doesn't dare to celebrate this victory.

He dare not linger but swiftly moves on until he reaches a small Human Race Cultivator camp behind the mountain, undoubtedly for patrolling cultivators to rest.

From afar, he saw a man and a woman drinking tea and chatting there, looking very leisurely.

Wang Wu hesitated for a moment, driven by curiosity about the Human Cultivation Realm and also to gather intelligence for the future, and so he snuck over to eavesdrop on their conversation.

The topics of the man and woman were broad, ranging from alchemy to talisman making, from beast taming to cultivation, from poetry and songs to tea making. As they got excited, the man played the zither, and the woman danced gracefully, her movements exquisite!

After the dance, the woman's eyes were like spring water, tender and affectionate, the man couldn't restrain himself, and it quickly led to a passionate affair.

In the midst of their fervor, another Human Race Cultivator returned to the camp from the array overlap zone, listening to the endless springtime in the tent with a frown, and let out a displeased cold snort.

A moment later, the man emerged from the tent, baring his upper body, wrapping a blanket around his lower body, and holding a snow-white, jade-like fox in his arms.

"Senior Brother Wen, how can you be so reckless! Have you forgotten the rules of Yun Ding City? Cultivators are prohibited from immoral acts with Spirit Beasts!"

"Haha! Junior Brother Song, you're clearly jealous! Quickly say, aren't you jealous? If you're craving, I'm not a stingy person; I'll lend it to you for fun. Let me tell you, this is a Fifth-Grade Ancient Blood Spirit Fox, with skin as smooth as jade, warm and fragrant, beyond description! Beyond description!"

Senior Brother Wen laughed heartily, extremely delighted!

"Enough! Senior Brother Wen, you and I are responsible for deploying the array here, monitoring the seal, a responsibility of great importance; how can we be so derelict!"
