Chapter 1707 - 310:

After deducing from the Red Line, Li Zhiyuan's understanding of the causal Heavenly Dao deepened.

The mess made by Wei Zhengdao back then is causing repercussions now; the Zhao family's Dragon King's Court, which no longer held spiritual legacy, was making attempts to remedy the situation.

In essence, this was a strategic confrontation of political examinations.

The shadow of Emperor Fengdu said that the Heavenly Dao would not allow him to live to adulthood, yet regardless, the Heavenly Dao still allowed him to live now. Being able to become a blade in the hands of the Heavenly Dao and achieve cooperative harmony must have been boosted by the identity aid from the two Dragon King's Courts.

When Liu Yumei held the initiation ceremony for him, the Zou Jiang lights spontaneously lit up, seemingly meaningless, but was indeed a timely compensatory measure.

Upon reflecting afterwards, Li Zhiyuan thought that while he had been utterly confused, he was also walking on thin ice.

The woman still hadn't spoken; she merely pressed her palms together.

Li Zhiyuan's earlobe twitched, as he heard the dense, subtle friction sounds originating from within the woman's body.

The steel and cement in the surrounding ruins showed slight displacement.

An Array Master employs arrays as a medium, borrowing the powers of heaven and earth; she did the opposite, using herself as a medium to forcibly mobilize power.

This was mainly because her body was strong enough.

She was still not satisfied and wanted to fight again.

She seemingly notified her teammates not to intervene for the time being.

Encountering an outstanding peer is a blessing; sparring and comparison is a form of enjoyment, and more importantly, it reflects one's ladder of progress.

The most critical reason being, her gaze began to probe downward. Although she hadn't yet found any traces, she wouldn't naively believe that this young Array Master, who had arrived before her, hadn't set up an array beneath the ruins.

In reality, what the other party had revealed earlier was but the tip of the iceberg of the array.

At this moment, having her teammates act rashly would easily fall into the opponent's trap, resulting in unnecessary losses. She decided to step on the minefield herself first.

A very rational choice, because when an Array Master faces the crushing force of an array, their reaction and handling would definitely be better than others.

By now it was almost confirmed that the woman was the leader of her team.

Li Zhiyuan also did not issue any action commands to his own team.

Since the opponent wanted a "king to king" confrontation first, he was free to capture the king before catching the thief.

Having experienced a wave in Fengdu, especially after converting the bitter fruit deliberately left by the Great Emperor for his team into an advantage, Li Zhiyuan now had the confidence to compete with any team from On the River.

"Zhi zhi zhi... zhi zhi zhi..."

Initially, it was just a part, but then it turned into a whole; gradually, the debris covering the ruins seemed to be imbued with a certain life force.

The woman's mouth opened, her lips appeared to be cut, creating an unevenness, but soon they healed, then cut again, and healed once more...

She used herself as the array, with the Array Eye located on her body.

In this aspect, she was even harsher on herself than Zhao Yi, after all, Zhao Yi just casually liked to dig heart fountains.

But this woman could endure the pain of her internal organs shifting in an array, and within that, there was even cutting involved.

With a single leaf one knows the autumn, the Zhao family's outer estate being completely replaced like this was truly justified; from this woman alone, it could be seen what kind of a powerful team Jiang Shui had pushed forward this time.

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

Dust surged, assaulting from all directions, and in an instant, enveloped the location where Li Zhiyuan stood.

Tan Wenbin was still upstairs on the second floor, protecting the female corpse.

Outside, Run Sheng and Lin Shuyou had also not advanced forward.

It was partly due to team discipline, and partly because everyone had complete confidence in Brother Xiao Yuan's array skill.

At this moment, Li Zhiyuan's vision was covered by a gray mist, and his other senses were also distorted.

A giant shadow appeared behind Li Zhiyuan.

"Boom!"

An invisible barrier began to twist.

Li Zhiyuan turned around and saw a cement giant.

The giant retreated, then charged again.

"Boom!"

The barrier showed cracks.

The giant retreated again, and the next charge was imminent.

Li Zhiyuan stepped sideways, taking three steps.

"Ka-cha..."

The giant shattered the barrier, charging through, just brushing past Li Zhiyuan, and then disappearing into the gray mist ahead.

After a while, Li Zhiyuan shifted his stance again and stood firm.

The giant reappeared, charging out, and once again brushed past the young man's body.

"Dong dong dong... dong dong dong..."

From within the gray mist, more footsteps came.

Li Zhiyuan began to advance, not in a straight line and sometimes even retracing his steps.

One by one, the cement giants charged out, yet none could strike him; even when multiple giants charged out collectively next, Li Zhiyuan's form still stayed in a safe dead angle.

Until, on the shoulder of one giant sat that woman.

As this giant rushed past the young man's side, the woman dove down, lunging at Li Zhiyuan.

Li Zhiyuan lifted his foot and lightly stomped on the ground.

The previously set array was activated; one foot of the giant was immobilized, its body spun, and its fist hammered towards the falling woman.

"Bang!"

The punch landed solidly.

The woman's body flew backward, falling into the gray mist.

Li Zhiyuan spread his right hand, surrounded by a mist of blood.

The eyes of the giants around him showed a faint red.

They no longer charged at the young man but all surged into the gray mist, starting to trample.

The red figure flickered continuously in the gray mist; her dodging was far less composed than the young man's earlier.

However, Li Zhiyuan did not take the chance to pursue, as the gray mist behind him was changing color, with countless black moths flying out.
