Yue Qian's expression was uncertain. He watched as Yang Zhen buried a lot of those dark things at the edge of the entrance. Thinking of the Saint-level array plate that Yang Zhen had set up in the valley, that terrifying array of heaven and earth was so complex that even powerful figures like Yue Qian and Jade Pool Holy Lord could not understand it, Yue Qian had a bad feeling.
Seeing the interested expressions of the Jade Pool Holy Lord and the others, Yue Qian couldn't make a scene. He snorted coldly and sat down, staring at Yang Zhen with a gloomy expression and a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
No one noticed this hint of murderous intent; everyone's attention was focused on Yang Zhen.
Elder Jian looked at Lin Haotian with a playful expression, but his mind was on Yang Zhen. As Yang Zhen got closer and closer to the core of Mount Sumeru, Elder Jian became more and more satisfied with Yang Zhen.
Others may not know, but Elder Jian had a pretty good idea of what was going on. The large and small pits that suddenly appeared on Mount Sumeru, along with the sticks, were probably things that bastard Yang Zhen had concocted.
As for the numerous, complex, and dangerous large and small pits and sticks that Yang Zhen mentioned when he was climbing the mountain, they were probably created by Yang Zhen to confuse the situation.
Otherwise, if even someone with Lin Haotian's talent and skill couldn't get through, how could Yang Zhen possibly reach the summit in an environment a hundred times more dangerous than before?
It must have been this kid's doing. Oh my, the more Elder Jian looked at Yang Zhen, the more satisfied he became. This kid was not only insidious, but also incredibly despicable.
Lin Haotian could kill such a person with a single sword strike, but if Yang Zhen were to have any chance to retaliate, Lin Haotian would be the most miserable person in the world.
Elder Jian finally realized that Yang Zhen, this reckless young man, was the nemesis of Lin Haotian, a near-perfect person who was a template in every aspect.
It's so tight!
Thinking of this, Elder Jian sighed and muttered to himself, "What a pity. If I had met Yang Zhen earlier, his cultivation might not have been inferior to Lin Haotian's. Now, Lin Haotian could kill Kid Yang with ease. No matter how much Kid Yang schemes against Lin Haotian, he's probably in grave danger today. What a pity, what a pity..."
Hearing the Elder Jian's mutterings, the Third Holy Maiden looked at Yang Zhen with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty in their eyes.
When the Third Holy Maiden first met Yang Zhen, they had a feeling that Yang Zhen was definitely not a simple person. Now, as they have come this far, Yang Zhen's performance has indeed far exceeded their expectations. The Third Holy Maiden once predicted that Yang Zhen might be able to restrain Lin Haotian, and now it has all come true. It remains to be seen whether Yang Zhen can escape Lin Haotian's angry and humiliating killing.
Perhaps Yang Zhen really can use his surroundings to escape?
Thinking of this, even the Third Holy Maiden couldn't help but feel a surge of passion deep inside, her gaze fixed intently on Yang Zhen.
Inside the Heaven-Observing Mirror, Yang Zhen was helping Lin Haotian analyze the restrictions on the core entrance of Mount Sumeru with a look of curiosity. His expression of surprise, doubt, and confusion was vividly displayed. He was so devoted to Lin Haotian felt like he was being treated with utmost respect.
Everyone was staring at Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, wondering what he was up to now.
However, the expressions of the people around Yang Zhen and those under the Heaven-Observing Mirror were different.
Those under the Heaven-Observing Mirror knew that Yang Zhen had already dug a pit for Lin Haotian to fall into, but they didn't know what Yang Zhen was waiting for. That intense curiosity almost drove everyone crazy.
At this moment, Yang Zhen suddenly exclaimed, "I see!"
What?
Upon hearing Yang Zhen's words, both those inside and outside the Heaven-Observing Mirror Heaven-Observing Mirror greatly surprised.
This guy actually figured it out?
What did you see?
Yue Gan sneered and said, "Seeking fame and fortune, putting on airs."
Seeing Yang Zhen like this, Yue Qian was less worried. Could such an almost absurd person possibly trick a genius like Lin Haotian, who was exceptionally intelligent and quick-witted?
That's simply impossible!
The Jade Pool Holy Lord glanced at Yue Qian but didn't speak. Instead, he looked at Yang Zhen with great interest. Clearly, judging from the expression in the Jade Pool Holy Lord's eyes, he, like Elder Jian, was increasingly satisfied with Yang Zhen the more he looked at him.
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at Yang Zhen, afraid of missing even a single word.
At this moment, Yang Zhen suddenly took a deep breath, his expression solemn and serious as he pointed to the rocks and land at the core entrance of Mount Sumeru, and said, "Three golden dragons hang from the sea of clouds, five yangs illuminate the sky like jade pendants, this is clearly a Land of Three Yin Lacking Yang."
Upon hearing Yang Zhen's words, everyone around looked at each other in bewilderment. Even Lin Haotian stared at Yang Zhen with surprise, asking in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"
Yang Zhen exclaimed in surprise, "Aren't you a disciple of High Antiquity lineage? You should have known this simple principle long ago, right?"
Lin Haotian's face darkened, and he pointed at Yang Zhen, about to speak in a fit of rage, when Yang Zhen suddenly exclaimed in realization, "Brother Lin, are you testing my basic knowledge of cultivation?"
It's basic knowledge of cultivation again!
Wan Jian's lips twitched, and he looked at Yang Zhen with a flickering gaze. Clearly, he had also noticed something amiss.
Lin Haotian looked coldly at Yang Zhen, seemingly surprised by Yang Zhen's words. He snorted and glanced at Yang Zhen sideways, saying, "Gaining the approval of the Third Holy Maiden is not such a simple matter. You may be the one who can follow the Third Holy Maiden into the core of Sumeru to visualize the Heavenly Star Stele, so naturally I need to test you."
A look of surprise flashed across Yang Zhen's face, and she asked excitedly, "Really? Are you serious?"
"Hurry up and speak!" Lin Haotian snorted coldly, sounding somewhat impatient.
Little did they know that when Yang Zhen mentioned the Land of Three Yin Lacking Yang, the Jade Pool Holy Lord and others in the Jade Pool Holy Hall suddenly stood up.
Apart from Yue Qian, who looked completely bewildered, everyone else stared at Yang Zhen in shock. Elder Jian even exclaimed in surprise, "How does this kid know about the Land of Three Yin Lacking Yang?"
"Impossible! The Land of Three Yin Lacking Yang have only been discovered on Mount Sumeru so far in the entire Western Region, and even the entire Cultivation World. Where did Yang Zhen hear about this?" A look of shock flashed across the Jade Pool Holy Lord's face as she muttered to herself, "Is Yang Zhen really just a Rogue Cultivator?"
The Third Holy Maiden looked surprised, but nodded firmly and said, "Holy Lord, Yang Zhen's identity has been thoroughly investigated. He came from the East Sea, traveled to the North Isle, and then arrived in the Western Region, but..."
"But what?" Yue Qian suddenly asked in a cold voice.
The Third Holy Maiden glanced at Yue Qian, a smile suddenly appearing on their faces, and said, "Reporting to Senior Yue, although Yang Zhen is just a Rogue Cultivator, he is extremely familiar with many powers, and he also Literary Talent Qi Inscriptions on his body. His mastery of formations and even geomancy is quite profound."
Upon hearing the words of the Third Holy Maiden, Yue Qian's face immediately turned ashen. He stood up abruptly and strode outside.
The Jade Pool Holy Lord looked at Yue Qian with surprise and asked, "Brother Yue, where are you going?"
"Let's go to Mount Sumeru!"
A murderous intent flashed across Yue Qian's face. If Yang Zhen continued to cause trouble like this, how could Lin Haotian possibly survive?
Just as the Jade Pool Holy Lord and the others were dumbfounded, Yue Qian was about to leave the Holy Temple, Yang Zhen's Sage of Saunter I learned by chance when I glanced at an ancient secret. In short, to activate this restriction, you must scorch the rocks and land at the entrance with righteous fire."
Burning?
Upon hearing this, Yue Qian stumbled, then suddenly remembered something, and vanished from the spot.
