Chapter 1833 - 1432: Contractor Changsheng, Enslavement!

"Ancient Array of the Revolving Cosmos!"

"Ancient Array of the Revolving Cosmos!"

The voices of Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue rang out simultaneously, in perfect unison.

Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched slightly, "What array? How to solve it?"

As she asked, Gu Changsheng glanced behind them.

Darn it, can’t let those left on the first level of the tower hear their Array-breaking Method!

Exactly! That’s how selfish she was!

"No need to look, they are not in the same formation as us!" Zhou Mu shook his head, responding earnestly.

"What do you mean?" Gu Changsheng widened her eyes, "The entrance to the second level of the Star Innate Tower was clearly the only one!"

Logically speaking, they all came through the same door, they should be in the same place.

"Because the Ancient Array of the Revolving Cosmos is set here, everyone who entered this level of the tower stepped into the array at the same time! Without breaking the formation, we and they will not meet!" Zhou Mu said deeply while looking at the endless shelves in front of him, "Everything here is both illusion and reality, to get out, we must find the array’s eye, otherwise, everything we do will be reset, as if it never happened!"

"Like time reversing?" Gu Changsheng blinked.

"Yes!" Zhou Mu nodded.

"Then how do we break it?" There’s not even a staircase here, obviously, there’s no way to continue climbing the tower from within this array!

"Among the things on these shelves, there will be one that, once taken down, will not restore itself! And that thing is where the array’s eye is located!" Zhou Mu raised his hand, pointing to the shelves in front of him, and spoke deeply.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng felt as if struck by lightning, staring incredulously at her evildoer, "Don’t tell me, this is real? So easy?"

Find the one item that doesn’t disappear upon being removed, and this awe-inspiring array is broken?

So easy?

Not scientific!

"Perhaps, it won’t be that easy!" Zhou Mu’s gaze turned cold as he walked towards the shelves again, this time taking a round fan from the shelves...

And the moment the round fan was removed, a row of sharp arrows fired swiftly towards Zhou Mu’s location from within the shelves, and the shelves moved once again, restoring to their original state...

Gu Changsheng watched as Zhou Mu twisted to avoid the arrows, the fan in his hand falling to the ground, disappearing once more...

"Damn! There are traps here too!" Gu Changsheng was genuinely shocked now.

"Yes, the traps here also reset! Until we find the item that doesn’t disappear, any contact with something with a trap will trigger it repeatedly!" Zhou Mu nodded, pointing to the vast number of shelves ahead, helplessly, "So it takes a lot of time, and one bad move could be endless damnation. The most crucial point is that we don’t know when we’ll be able to find the array-breaking item among these shifting shelves!"

This is the crux of the Ancient Array of the Revolving Cosmos, while danger is secondary, the key is the time consumption!

Sometimes, people go mad stuck within this formation!

"As for hidden weapons, even without inner strength, we should be able to avoid them! It’s just about finding the item..." Gu Changsheng blinked upon hearing this, then spread her hands, "It’s up to you two! After all, we brought plenty of food, we can be stuck here for ten days or so, no problem! So, take your time finding it, no rush!"

Saying this, Gu Changsheng plopped down on the ground and waved to Yuan Bao, "Yuan Bao, unpack, let’s cook here while they search!"

"Isn’t this... not good?" Shi Wujue looked at Gu Changsheng and Yuan Bao, who started rummaging through what seemed like a small mountain of food, with a face full of helplessness.

"Nothing bad about it, those capable should work harder, you two moving around is better than us getting in the way! You go find, we’ll cook, no rush!"

Waving her hand, Gu Changsheng completely ignored Shi Wujue’s protest, "Today we’re having Beggar’s Chicken! Yuan Bao, go fetch water at the pipe by the tower gate to kill the chickens!"

"Got it!" Yuan Bao responded, grabbing two big hens and headed towards the tower gate.

Every level of the Star Innate Tower, by the gate, had a pipe where water flowed conveniently down for Gu Changsheng.

"Still standing around for what? Hurry up and find it!" Gu Changsheng urged, waving at Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue who were standing still, "Quickly, quickly, the sooner you find it, the sooner we get out!"

"You!"

Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue looked at the small woman squatting on the ground busy with setting up a pot, not knowing what to say, exchanged a glance, and resignedly stepped into the countless shelves...

As they entered the maze of bookshelves, the shelves began to move quickly...

Every item taken down triggered another change in the shelves, their movements were incredibly fast, and the speed of the shelves’ shifting and moving increased accordingly, showing no sign of slowing down...

"Tsk tsk... That Ta You truly is twisted. With all these things on the bookshelves, constantly changing, who knows when we’ll find the one to break the array. I’m guessing we’ll be dizzy from the moving shelves before we even find it!" While setting up the pot, Gu Changsheng complained to the Holy Envoy Child in the sack about his master!

He’s a total nutcase!

What’s the point of putting so many bookshelves here?

How can people who don’t understand formations get through this?

And Gu Changsheng finally understood why those who entered the Star Innate Tower couldn’t get out for weeks, or even longer, because this is a total trap!

So many bookshelves, constantly moving and changing, trying to find something is like looking for a needle in a haystack, right?

Not only that, but you also have to constantly guard against hidden weapons set off by taking things down. One wrong move and you could end up dead without a burial!

Tsk tsk...

Truly, it threatens your life and torments your will, a twisted grave for the Treasure Pavilion!

"Hey, you two be careful so that our meal isn’t ready and you guys are already dead!" Gu Changsheng fiddled with the charcoal while yelling inside.

"There’s poison on this thing! Antidote!" In the ever-changing bookshelves, Shi Wujue’s voice came through.

Shi Wujue held a jade plate, stained with poison, and his hand was now pitch-black...

The jade plate in the black hand fell to the ground, disappearing without a trace, not the array’s eye.

"Tsk tsk... With me here, Shi Wujue, if you die from poison in this formation, my reputation would be ruined! You two stop, get the bookshelves to stop moving!" Gu Changsheng clapped his hands by the pot, stood up, looked at the two walking out from the book maze, took out two medicine bottles from his pocket, tossed one to each and said, "Take one pill every Shichen, ensures you’re immune to all poisons! Alright, let’s continue cooking, you guys keep breaking the array!"

"Call us when the food is ready!" Zhou Mu shook his head.

"Don’t worry, you won’t starve!" Gu Changsheng waved his hand!

And so, while others were busy breaking the array, Gu Changsheng’s group had quite a reasonable division of labor...

Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue were enslaved, amidst the ever-changing bookshelves, where hidden weapons flew constantly, searching tirelessly for the array-breaking needle, while outside the formation, Gu Changsheng and Yuan Bao guarded the food, and pointed here and there at the ever-changing bookshelves within...

"Tsk tsk... That bookshelf with the round fan has come back again! It came back! Do you think Shi Wujue is an idiot? He has taken that round fan several times!" Gu Changsheng leaned comfortably against a sack of rice, tossing candied fruit into his mouth, chewing while schadenfreudely saying.

"My master is enough to drive someone mad. That bookshelf with the poisonous bees has ambushed him several times! Why can’t he remember? We’ve already looked through the stuff on that bookshelf!" Yuan Bao said with a helpless anger, followed by a sigh.

"Tsk tsk... The evildoer got shot again!"

"Shi Wujue got bitten by snakes again!"

"..."

"..."

Yuan Bao and Gu Changsheng leisurely watched the show, still pointing fingers.

Inside the formation, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue looked drained, speechless...

Enough is enough!

While they painstakingly searched for the needle in the formation, two of the people outside were gloating!

Finally, as the bookshelves moved again, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue both decided to stop, and as the shelves paused, they quickly slipped out of the book labyrinth!

"We’re hungry!"

Looking at the two overly relaxed people, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue’s faces were dark.

"Huh? It’s only been a little while? Hungry already? We’re not hungry yet!" Gu Changsheng swallowed the candied fruit in his mouth, looking disdainfully at the striking workers, "Are you reincarnated starving ghosts? Clearly, you’re just goofing off!"

"A little while? Why not talk about how long you’ve been enjoying your show? You haven’t stopped snacking, of course you’re not hungry! It’s been half a day already and no food yet? You’re enslaving us!" Shi Wujue got angry at Gu Changsheng’s words, his face, which shocked the world, was full of resentment.

Being enslaved was one thing, but having to endure the constant finger-pointing from outside the formation while looking for the needle was infuriating!

Listening to that, it’s maddening!

"Huh? Is that so? Then we’ll start cooking! You guys continue breaking the array! I’ll call you when the food is ready!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng pretended to suddenly realize, urging Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue back into the formation, "This meal, we’re having roast duck! I guarantee the taste will be heavenly, hurry and get busy! You won’t starve!"

Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue felt helpless, wanting to say if they could not let the two without Inner Strength have a break, but the contractor Gu Changsheng gave them no chance...
