Chapter 825 Entering the Soul Sealing Array 1
Ren Tianning had already activated the "Heavenly Demon Eye," watching as the soul power of these evil ghost cultivators was forcibly absorbed. Their solid figures instantly faded, while Cao Yi, after confirming that all the soul power had been absorbed by the array plate, quickly made a hand seal, drawing upon the soul power of the ghost cultivators to begin reversing the array plate.

Cao Yi stood at the front, with Yun Xi and Master Wu Wang on either side of him, protecting him while also preparing for any unforeseen circumstances. Ren Tianning stood next to Xun Kun, constantly monitoring the progress of the array plate's reversal.

Yun Yi, Yun Chen, and Han Lian surrounded the metal sphere that held open the energy shield. This was a magic weapon to ensure that everyone's soul power would not be forcibly absorbed, and no mistakes could be made.

Han Baifeng and Hu Yingjun were responsible for perimeter security. It would be disastrous if any evil cultivators entered and discovered that they were destroying the place where the evil god nurtured his soul.

Half an incense stick later, just as Cao Yi's spiritual energy in his dantian was running low, he finally heard a faint "click" sound, indicating that the embedded array plate had been damaged.

Yunxi also heard the sound and knew that cracks had appeared in the embedded array plate. She looked at Cao Yi, who seemed to be struggling, and said:

"You replenish your spiritual energy first, and leave the rest to me."

After saying that, he flashed and took Cao Yi's place, waving his sleeve to send the other person to his side.

Then, Yunxi used the same hand seals as Cao Yi to continue guiding the chaotic soul power embedded in the array plate, and continued to reverse the array.

However, she injected lightning spiritual power, which is inherently restraining ghost cultivators. This made the already unconscious soul power even more agitated, forced to surge in the opposite direction by the lightning spiritual power, making the array plate unable to withstand this violent force.

"Crack!" sounds rang out one after another, clearly indicating that the array plate, which was specifically designed to absorb soul power, could no longer hold on.

Ren Tianning's eyes darkened, and she immediately shouted:

"retreat!"

Everyone immediately scurried away from where they were.

The moment everyone vanished, the desolate ground began to tremble violently. Then, with a deafening roar, the ground where they had been standing was violently ripped apart, sending sand and gravel flying everywhere. The sand and gravel crashed against the barrier and then slammed back onto the ground, while strands of soul power dissipated as the array plate shattered.

Some souls have lost consciousness and are just floating aimlessly in the air. Other souls have lost their human form and are just blindly rushing around, seemingly searching for a way to leave this place.

Xun Kun had already taken out the Soul-Gathering Mirror and begun collecting the drifting souls. Ren Tianning's eyes remained unchanged, his deep gaze piercing through the layers of shadows, looking at a specific spot as he said:
"Although the embedded formation has been destroyed, the cracks in the 'Soul Sealing Formation' have widened. It's estimated that the sealed evil god's soul has been alerted. Should we proceed according to plan?"

Fox Handsome, standing to the side, twitched his ears and said:
“Someone is coming this way. They’re probably evil cultivators. We must have made a big commotion and alerted them.”

Cao Yi had just replenished his spiritual energy, and he calmly spoke:

"If the array plate is destroyed, the array master who set up the array should be able to sense it and send someone to check it out, which is normal."

Yunxi looked at Cao Yi and said:

"Are you ready?"

Cao Yi nodded and said:

"I'm ready, I can last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

"Alright, let's finish this quickly." Yunxi said, then looked at the remaining people and said:

"Let's go in."

Ren Tianning frowned and said:
"I'll lead the way, you guys stick close to me, the real tough battle is about to begin."

After saying that, he turned into a beam of light and rushed into the gap of the Soul Sealing Array. Master Wuwang chanted a Buddhist prayer and waved his sleeve, leading Yun Chen, Yun Yi, Han Lian, Han Baifeng and Hu Yingjun to follow closely behind and rush into the gap.

Yunxi finished up the last bit, watching Cao Yi throw out hundreds of array plates to set up a chain array, and then without hesitation, she pulled Cao Yi into the crevice.

The instant she passed through the crack, Yunxi immediately transmitted her voice:

"Cao Yi, now's the time!"

Cao Yi had already been holding an eighth-grade array plate in his hand, and it was in an activated state. After receiving the prompt, he immediately threw the array plate out. The array plate instantly enlarged and accurately embedded itself into the crack of the Soul Sealing Array, sealing the crack once again.

After completing these tasks, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. The interconnected array they had set up was the first step in holding back the evil cultivator, while the array plate that sealed the crack was the second step. Both were to prevent the evil cultivator from recklessly and forcibly breaking through the "Soul Sealing Array."

The power of the self-destruction of the eighth-grade array plate can not only injure evil cultivators, but also damage the sealed soul of the evil god. This will make the evil cultivators more cautious and prevent them from using excessively extreme methods to kill them, thus giving them enough time to act.

According to Cao Yi's speculation, the evil cultivators must have tried to break the "Soul Sealing Array" to release the evil god's soul, but they probably failed, so they came up with this compromise.

It can both nourish the soul and ensure that it will not be discovered by these righteous cultivators. Once the evil god's soul awakens on its own, the evil god will definitely be able to escape on its own.

The idea was good, the process went smoothly, and it didn't disturb the righteous cultivators on the battlefield. Unfortunately, it was ruined by Yunxi and her group who unexpectedly broke in.

Most importantly, Yunxi's interception prevented the "Gate of Time and Space" from falling completely into the hands of the evil cultivators. They only obtained the "Gate," which could barely teleport some ghost cultivators into the ancient battlefield. They couldn't do much more, otherwise the high-level evil cultivators of the "Ruins of Nothingness" would have already rushed into the spirit world.

It can only be said that the judgment of the True Venerable Mingyou was accurate; Yunxi is indeed a nemesis of evil cultivators.

As they disappeared, the place returned to its deathly silence, with only the dust in the air indicating that something had happened. A group of high-level evil cultivators who had been ordered to come had already entered the barrier, but they were trapped the moment they entered and were each put into different formations.

Some evil cultivators fell into illusions, some entered killing formations, and some rushed into trapping formations. They sensed something was wrong and immediately began to break the formations. Unfortunately, after they had exhausted all their strength to break the formations that trapped them, they fell into a second formation.

Most of these hundreds of array plates were crafted by Cao Yi, with some made by Yun Xi as practice. When setting up the array traps, the two of them tacitly placed the lower-grade array plates on the outer perimeter, and the closer to the crack in the Soul Sealing Array, the higher the grade of the array plate.

Because the lower-level formations are easy to break, evil cultivators will not easily choose to unleash their ultimate moves, especially when they have not figured out what exactly happened in the forbidden area.

When they get close to the core of the incident, they will be trapped by a high-level array. Whether they are killed by the array or temporarily trapped, the news from the forbidden area cannot be sent out. This will buy them more time to act. As long as they do not alert the Mahayana evil cultivators, Yunxi and the others are confident that they can escape unscathed.

At this moment, the group that rushed into the Soul Sealing Formation was plunged into darkness, surrounded by deathly silence. Apart from their companions, they could not sense any other presence.

Yunxi opened her palm, and a wisp of Xuanlei Purple Flame slowly floated in the air, illuminating the space around her and Cao Yi.

But all around was darkness, nothing at all, not even Ren Tianning and Master Wuwang.
