Chapter 763 - 757: Nato Detonates the Red Embroidery Ball

"Zila."

"Zila, zila."

Under the burning of the nine flames, the Peacock Great Ming King’s Five-Colored Divine Light gradually couldn’t hold on.

Three more minutes, after three minutes, the defense of the Five-Colored Divine Light will be destroyed by the fire.

Thereafter, the nine fires will sweep over the Peacock Great Ming King and Nato.

The Peacock Great Ming King should be able to withstand for five minutes, after which he will be burned to ashes.

As for Nato, he is even worse off.

Nato can hold on for at most three minutes before being turned to ashes, perhaps only able to last two minutes.

It’s unclear whether Nato and the Peacock Great Ming King are lucky or unlucky.

If you say they’re unlucky, they are the last to fall into the array.

Mo Ke and Monk Fusheng, who entered the array at the same time, were already obliterated.

If you say they’re lucky, they’ve fallen into a chain array set by nine array spirits.

If they were like Mo Ke and Monk Fusheng, falling into an array by a single array spirit, they could still protect each other.

Seeing the Five-Colored Divine Light couldn’t hold on, the Peacock Great Ming King had no choice but to use his last resort.

The last resort for the Peacock Great Ming King was to contact the Yin Celestial Son for help.

"Yin Celestial Son."

"Yin Celestial Son, Yin Celestial Son." The Peacock Great Ming King called out the name of the Yin Celestial Son three times in his heart and immediately received a response through the Reincarnation Mark in his body.

"Your situation right now is not looking good!" Yin Celestial Son bluntly said.

Yin Celestial Son could sense the surrounding situation through the Reincarnation Mark in the Peacock Great Ming King.

The Peacock Great Ming King said helplessly, "It’s because I’m out of options that I ask for your assistance."

"I ask Yin Celestial Son to help me escape the array."

After the Peacock Great Ming King’s words fell, the Yin Celestial Son fell into a lengthy silence.

After being silent for more than ten seconds, the Yin Celestial Son finally replied, "To be frank, unless I come in person, it’s impossible for me to help you escape from this array."

This giant array set by nine array spirits jointly cannot be broken by anyone less than a Tier One powerhouse.

This is the Returning Ruins, far from the emperor’s reach, even though the Yin Celestial Son is a Tier One powerhouse, he cannot save them.

Unless Wa Huang, the Demon Lord, or the Buddha himself breaks into the Returning Ruins and breaks the array, only then can they be saved.

Without a doubt, Wa Huang, the Demon Lord, and the Buddha will not personally intervene.

To personally break the array would mean breaking the array and killing members of the Void Race at the same time.

Thus, it would involve themselves in the Power of Cause and Effect of the Void and Returning Ruins.

Wa Huang would never entangle herself with such intricate causal forces for their lives.

Hearing Yin Celestial Son’s words, the Peacock Great Ming King’s expression darkened.

It seems today he is doomed.

Despite his heavy heart, the Peacock Great Ming King was still willing to face death calmly.

Since coming to the Void and becoming an undercover agent in Wa Huang’s Palace, the Peacock Great Ming King had anticipated this day.

Before dying, the Peacock Great Ming King said heavily, "Yin Celestial Son, help me convey some words to Lin Yuan and Mengmeng..."

"Wait!"

"No need at all!" As the Peacock Great Ming King was about to utter his last words, he was interrupted by the Yin Celestial Son.

"I only said I don’t have the ability to forcibly rescue you."

"But, I can have them let you go!" The Yin Celestial Son continued.

Back then, when the Void Race was replicating the abilities of Lin Yuan’s subordinates, some tricks were tampered with.

The Yin Celestial Son had left the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark on them.

Even if these members of the Void Race turned into array spirits, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark was still present.

In other words, the Yin Celestial Son could fully utilize the Reincarnation Mark to communicate with these nine array spirits, reveal his identity, and tell them the Peacock Great Ming King is his person, and to let him go.

But now there’s still a challenge.

That is, Nato.

Letting the Peacock Great Ming King and Nato go doesn’t make sense and can’t be explained.

"What about this child?"

"If you cannot handle it yourself, then you must dispose of him!" Yin Celestial Son’s voice rang in the Peacock Great Ming King’s heart.

Upon hearing this, the Peacock Great Ming King quickly said, "Nato can be trusted, he won’t betray me."

"Besides, I can knock him out, I can explain it."

Since the Peacock Great Ming King said so, Yin Celestial Son had nothing more to add.

Just as the Peacock Great Ming King was about to knock out Nato, Nato suddenly brought out the Red Embroidery Ball given by Wa Huang.

"Senior Brother Kong, I’ll detonate the Red Embroidery Ball to blast open a gap in the array."

"When the gap appears, leave immediately!" After Nato finished, he didn’t give the Peacock Great Ming King a chance to object.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

Nato hammered his chest three times, spitting out three mouthfuls of essence blood. The Red Embroidery Ball flashed red, then rapidly expanded.

"Boom!"

With a loud explosion, the Red Embroidery Ball exploded, actually blowing a hole in the Nine Fire Flame Array.

The Peacock Great Ming King didn’t hesitate, pulling the severely injured Nato burning with essence blood out of the array through the gap.

After escaping the Nine Fire Flame Array, the Peacock Great Ming King finally breathed a sigh of relief.

While fleeing toward the edge of Returning Ruins with Nato, the Peacock Great Ming King also helped him heal his wounds.

Once Nato’s injuries were stabilized, the Peacock Great Ming King asked, "Nato, how could you detonate the Palace Master’s treasure?"

Nato’s weak voice carried a pained smile, "The Palace Master once lent the Red Embroidery Ball to Xi Huang, instructing him to detonate it for protection if in mortal danger."

"At that time, when the Palace Master taught Xi Huang the detonation formulas, I secretly learned them."

Nato’s method of detonating the Red Embroidery Ball enabled the two of them to escape danger.

For the Peacock Great Ming King, this was originally good news.

After all, it avoided exposing him.

However, after hearing the story, the Peacock Great Ming King felt a bit worried for Nato.

Nato’s detonation of Wa Huang’s Magic Artifact was unauthorized.

Wa Huang allowed Xi Huang to explode her Magic Artifact in life-threatening situations because they were siblings.

In Wa Huang’s heart, Xi Huang’s life was more precious than the Magic Artifact.

But to Wa Huang, are Nato and the Peacock Great Ming King more valuable than that Red Embroidery Ball?

"Nato, for learning the formulas secretly and detonating the Palace Master’s Magic Artifact without permission, there’s bound to be a punishment!" The Peacock Great Ming King said with a stern expression.

The heavily injured Nato smiled bitterly, "It’s just a punishment, it doesn’t matter, the Palace Master wouldn’t kill me."

"Besides, even if I were killed, it would be worth it."

"If I hadn’t used this method, Senior Brother Kong and I would both be dead. Using this method, the worst outcome is that I die alone."

"Dying one is better than dying two."

The Peacock Great Ming King patted Nato’s head, comforting him, "What nonsense are you talking!"

"Even if the Palace Master punishes, this is something we two should face together."

"You’re just a kid; how can I let you take the fall for me?"
