“Don’t hesitate. Time is limited. If we continue like this, we will definitely be able to break the formation!” Chang Daoping saw everyone’s expressions and was afraid that they would retreat, so he quickly shouted encouragement.

Everyone didn’t dare to be slow. They were all in high spirits as they continued to use their martial skills to bombard the huge ball above their heads.

In the beginning, everyone’s attacks seemed to be completely ineffective, and the huge ball did not react at all. However, after everyone attacked with all their might for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, it finally began to feel strange.

When they attacked the giant sphere again, they didn’t sink into the sea like they did at the beginning. Instead, they clearly felt a trace of rebound force. This feeling was as if the giant sphere was finally full after absorbing all the previous frenzied attacks.

Everyone’s faces were filled with surprise. No matter what the change was, as long as there was a change, it was a good thing. This meant that their efforts were not in vain, and there was hope of entering the ruins!

“Hurry up, everyone, put in more effort. It’s almost done!” Chang Daoping shouted again.

Hearing this, everyone’s spirits were lifted, and they immediately used their full strength to activate their martial techniques even more crazily. At the same time, Chang Daoping also waved his array flags with all his might. No one knew what powerful martial technique he used, but an extremely dazzling beam of light shot out from one end of his array flags and hit the huge sphere. The power was so shocking that it actually caused the entire sphere to show signs of collapsing!

With such a powerful big brother taking the lead, everyone immediately became even more excited and worked even harder. They subconsciously thought that as long as they could destroy this huge sphere, it would be equivalent to breaking the array.

Lin Yi, however, wasn’t as shallow as the others. The signs did look like they were about to break the formation, but it wasn’t what they thought.

This was because if one used their divine sense to sense, they would find that Chang Daoping was not attacking the giant sphere at all. On the contrary, he was actually using the array flags to transfer the huge amount of energy that was accumulated on the sphere to himself. Everyone was just kept in the dark.

This guy really had his own tricks! Lin Yi understood and paid close attention to Chang Daoping’s every move. If the other party did anything that was not beneficial to him, he had to make sure that he could escape with Huang xiaotao in an instant.

At this moment, under the combined attacks of the others, the giant ball suddenly let out a loud bang. Cracks appeared on its surface, and they were increasing at a visible speed. In the end, it could not hold on any longer.

BOOM! The huge sphere suddenly exploded, and the massive energy that originally belonged to everyone instantly poured over their heads again. Everyone was caught off guard and was directly blown away, each of them suffering heavy injuries.

In the chaos, Lin Yi quickly healed himself and Huang xiaotao while keeping an eye on Chang Daoping. However, he realized that this person had no injuries at all.

After Chang Daoping transferred the huge amount of energy to himself, he took advantage of the moment when the giant ball exploded to hit the stone lock that suddenly appeared on the other side.

At this moment, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. Everyone felt the sky and earth spinning, and by the time they reacted, the surrounding environment had already changed dramatically. It was completely different from the scene just now.

There was no dense forest or wasteland. Under their feet was an empty street, and in front of them was a huge city with a deathly aura. On the city gate not far away, the words “Ao duo cultivation city” were carved!

“Listening to brother Chang was indeed the right choice, we’re finally in!” Cao Shishi said excitedly, as if she had forgotten about her injuries. The rest of the people were also pleasantly surprised. If they could enter the ruins, the star Ink milk that they had been dreaming of would be in their hands!

Lin Yi’s lips twitched at the scene-these people had been kept in the dark from the start, and yet they were still jumping around. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Lin Yi understood everything from the scene just now. Chang Daoping didn’t plan on harming them, but he didn’t tell them the truth either. The giant sphere they were attacking wasn’t the formation eye, but the stone lock that appeared.

Everyone had spent so much effort, but they were actually working for Chang Daoping. They were all dog-tired and injured. Only Chang Daoping was full of energy. He didn’t waste any energy and wasn’t injured at all.

The only thing he did just now was to extract everyone’s energy and transfer it to the stone lock’s array eye while they were in chaos. For a Yuanying stage expert like him, this was simply too easy.

From the beginning to the end, everyone was just Chang Daoping’s Coolie, and this Coolie was done in an unclear way. They might have followed Chang Daoping in this time, but if they came by themselves the next time, they wouldn’t even know what the array eye was, let alone come in.

He thought back to the way before. Chang Daoping had only been leading the way quickly and didn’t give everyone time to memorize the route, let alone see the map. Now, he deliberately left a trick up his sleeve to break the formation. He clearly didn’t want everyone to know the way to enter the ruins.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Chang Daoping’s actions were understandable. After all, the star Ink milk was a natural treasure that would be continuously condensed. Even if they collected all of it this year, there would still be more next year and the year after. If everyone knew how to enter the ruins, wouldn’t it mean that Chang Daoping would have a group of competitors for no reason?

Not only was it common in the secular world, but it was also common in the world of cultivation. In front of such a rare treasure like the star Ink milk, any close relationship had to be put aside. Even Dao partners for dual cultivation had to be guarded against.

“Actually, this should be the desolate land we saw earlier. It’s just that it was covered by the moon Shadow array, so we couldn’t see it before.” Chang Daoping explained to everyone.

“I see.” Everyone nodded in understanding, each and every one of them eager to try. They couldn’t hold back their excitement, not even caring about their injuries.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes followed the empty street in front of them and stretched forward. There was almost no end in sight, and it was facing the city gate. It looked like a main road.

On both sides of the road, there were some extremely old shops and pavilions. There were also some broken walls and some words written on the walls, but the exact words could no longer be seen clearly.

Compared to the crowd’s excitement, Lin Yi’s reaction was a lot calmer. He didn’t forget to hold Huang xiaotao’s hand to heal each other’s injuries while observing the scene in front of him. (To be continued.) ”
