However, the light barrier was indeed quite troublesome. Even though everyone tried their best, they could not break through it.

"This light barrier is truly hard to breach. Besides using a higher level of power to crush it, there's only one last resort," Mr. Wuliu said with a touch of seriousness in his voice.

"What method?" Zhong Xiang looked over with interest.

"In the Feng Shui Realm, there's a master-level figure named Chen Xu. He's known for his remarkable abilities in breaking through various defenses, essentially a nemesis to all forms of protection. If we could invite him here, we might have a five or six out of ten chance to crack this shield. Yet, Chen Xu is always elusive, like a Divine Dragon, seen only in parts and never whole, and his true whereabouts are unknown. Bringing him here promptly is unlikely," explained Mr. Wuliu.

Upon hearing Mr. Wuliu's words, Zhang Chen instinctively exchanged a glance with Zhong Xiang, both harboring the same thought: Could it be?

They personally checked Chen Xu and found him to be a mere mortal, so how could he possess the ability to break this protective shield?

"Recently, I subdued a person who is skilled at observing Feng Shui Dragon Veins, yet he's merely a mortal, not the master Mr. Wuliu describes. If only they were the same person, it would solve our current problem," Zhong Xiang sighed, seemingly convinced that the Chen Xu he knew and Mr. Wuliu's description were not the same person.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhong Xiang finished speaking, Mr. Wuliu's eyes lit up, filled with brilliance: "The Chen Xu Feng Shui master I'm talking about is indeed a common mortal, just a flesh-and-blood mortal who has not even practiced Martial Dao. How many Feng Shui warlocks can there be in this world? And with the same name, no less? Please, bring him here."

Zhong Xiang was momentarily taken aback: "Really the same person? Unbelievable. What ability does this Chen Xu have to break this defense? Even we cannot break it, so what can a mere mortal do?"

"I already told you, he's got something special. Just bring him here," insisted Mr. Wuliu.

Zhong Xiang didn't hesitate further and vanished into the darkness, only to reappear shortly after, carrying Chen Xu from the outside.

"Mr. Wuliu, is this the person you mentioned?" Zhong Xiang brought Chen Xu into the scene and set him down.

Seeing Chen Xu, Mr. Wuliu's eyes involuntarily brightened, and he eagerly approached: "Master Chen Xu, it's been quite some years since we last met."

Chen Xu saw Mr. Wuliu and also brightened up: "What are you doing here?"

As he asked this question, Chen Xu realized they were at the Ancient Divine Demon Tomb, and before the other could answer, he already had an epiphany and added:

"Since parting from the great tomb back then, we indeed haven't seen each other."

"Indeed, since parting from the tomb, years have passed since we've met, and it seems today we'll have to work side by side again," Mr. Wuliu nodded.

Chen Xu responded with a wry smile, wishing he'd had the choice not to get embroiled in this mess, previously coming close to losing his life.

Mr. Wuliu glanced at the watchful Zhong Xiang and tentatively asked, "Master, have you been well?"

"It's a long story; escaping one danger only to fall into another — what a series of unfortunate events. Unlike you, who was an unknown scholar back in the day, you're now renowned across the land," Chen Xu replied with a rueful smile.

"Enough reminiscing, handle the main task first; this is no place for catching up," Zhong Xiang interrupted the banter, not pleased with hearing 'escaping one danger only to fall into another,' and looked at Chen Xu: "Chen Xu, Mr. Wuliu claims you have a method to break this barrier. Is it true? I've never heard of you having such skills."

Chen Xu replied with a wry smile: "I can only try. Whether it works or not depends on luck."

"Quickly step up; if you can break this light barrier, there will be a great reward from me," Zhong Xiang's tone was indifferent. Indeed, he was intentional; Mr. Wuliu had previously tried to morally coerce him with the group, and now he finally found an opportunity to vent. Mr. Wuliu and Chen Xu were obviously old acquaintances, and by treating Chen Xu with a commanding tone, Zhong Xiang immediately lowered Mr. Wuliu's status.

You see, Chen Xu is only fit to be under my command, and you, Mr. Wuliu, although an equal, what do you count for?

Sure enough, as soon as Mr. Wuliu saw Zhong Xiang's disdainful tone, he couldn't hold it but moved his lips without saying anything.

Now seeing Chen Xu ascend to the high platform, he looked at the green light barrier ahead, and in the next moment, both hands extended, revealing a convergence of black and white light in each palm, forming two brushes in black and white.

As Chen Xu held the black and white brushes, Zhang Chen was taken aback: "Chen Xu truly does have two brushes!!!"

With Chen Xu holding the brushes, he continuously brushed at the green light barrier in front. As the black and white brushes passed over, the green light barrier began to vibrate fiercely. Countless runes flashed upon it, and chains of order began to circulate.

The barrier emitted a shockwave, attempting to counterattack Chen Xu. However, the brushes in Chen Xu's hands released intertwining rays of light, creating an evolution of Yin and Yang, dividing the space before him so that the counter-shock force emitted by the green light barrier was enveloped by the black and white light.
