In midair, before the runes of the new array had fully manifested, other changes had already begun.
At the very outer edge, the Great Void Topsy-Turvy Array, which had blanketed the entire area like a veil of mist, distorting light and shadow and muddling perception, began to see its fluctuations rapidly weaken like a receding tide.
The energy patterns forming the array snapped apart and dissipated inch by inch. Within only a few breaths, this carefully arranged illusion formation silently vanished without leaving a trace.

Since he had decided to set up an array capable of relocation, this illusion formation, mainly used to deceive others, disguise the truth of this place, and delay the enemy's judgment, had greatly diminished strategic value.
Once the array could move over long distances, fixed camouflage no longer meant much.
Of course, the deeper and more crucial reason was the careful allocation of Divine Soul Power.
Although Chen Fei's divine soul had strengthened somewhat due to the newly acquired lotus seeds, he was still far from having strength to spare.
Maintaining every array required a continuous expenditure of mental power. As an array with unique functions, the Great Void Topsy-Turvy Array required no small amount of soul power to sustain.

Dispersing the illusion formation and freeing up precious Divine Soul Power was a necessary
