Outside White Cloud City, brightly lit as a majestic lion standing upon the earth.
Against the pitch-black sky, a man dressed in black abruptly appeared.
He gazed at White Cloud City's Quasi Fourth Rank City Protection Array Formation, the White Shadow Slanting Cloud Array, and could not help marveling.
"A Quasi Fourth Rank array formation with two Spirit Treasure Prototypes as its array artifacts is quite rare. With such financial resources, not refining a Fourth Rank array formation truly seems rather wasteful."
Yet after giving it some thought, he guessed at one possibility.
The force that had refined White Cloud City's City Protection Array Formation likely had no Fourth Rank Array Formation Master, only Quasi Fourth Rank Array Formation Masters. Left with no alternative, they had resorted to this inferior measure, forcibly using resources fully capable of creating a Fourth Rank array formation to create the White Shadow Slanting Cloud Array, this luxurious Quasi Fourth Rank array formation.
And that was indeed the truth.
The array's former owner, the Nascent Soul Force White Shadow Sect, had indeed encountered such a situation back then.
Then, the man in black vanished into the void.
When he appeared again, he had silently entered White Cloud City without triggering the White Shadow Slanting Cloud Array.
He even entered Ling Pengyun's cave abode directly and appeared before him.
Ling Pengyun himself had noticed nothing, but the mysterious Primordial Beginning Scripture within his Sea of Consciousness stirred and alerted him.
He opened his eyes and only then discovered the black-clad man's presence.
In an instant, every hair on his body stood on end.
His divine sense had already reached seventy percent of the level of a first-layer Nascent Soul cultivator.
Ordinary Golden Core cultivators, Pseudo Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, and even veteran Pseudo Nascent Soul Realm
