Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible Chapter 100 – Breaking Through The Array Formation With Brute Force

Chapter 100: Breaking Through The Array Formation With Brute Force

Huo Qiyun subconsciously looked around and frowned slightly, as if he was a little suspicious. “Are you sure?”

“Positive.”

Lin Ran nodded firmly and said, “Gold, silver, and gems are not the best materials for making array formations, but compared to those rare stones, these materials are already very good. Most importantly, you can get them with money.”

As if afraid that Huo Qiyun wouldn't believe him, Lin Ran added, “I saw this in Sword God's letter.”

Actually, Lin Ran came to know that gold and silver could be used to create array formation in the secret room of the Hidden Sword Pavilion.

The Five Elements Seal on the stone door was made of pure gold. The nature of this precious metal was extremely stable. In order for an array formation to survive for as long as possible, the stability of the array formation was quite important.

However, Hidden Sword Pavilion's secret room was one of the greatest secrets of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty. Lin Ran was not sure if Huo Qiyun knew about it, so he could only tell him an insignificant lie.

As expected, when he heard that Lin Ran knew it from the Ten Miles Sword God's letter, Huo Qiyun didn't say anything else. He just raised his hand and gestured for Lin Ran to continue.

Lin Ran rubbed the complicated patterns on the scabbard with his fingertips, looking hesitant. “If I'm not wrong, this should be a spatial array formation. I'm not sure about the exact principle and effect, but it should be related to the situation we're in.”

Huo Qiyun nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation. “Then can you break this array formation and let us out?”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes. “This is an array formation personally left behind by Ten Miles Sword God.”

Huo Qiyun knew that other than being skilled in sword techniques, the Ten Miles Sword God was also unparalleled in creating array formations. Lin Ran's answer was basically a negative answer.

After a short silence, Huo Qiyun immediately became a little irritable. He punched the stone wall and said angrily, “Then what's the use of saying so much? If we can't break the array formation, we can't get out!”

With that, Huo Qiyun suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up. “Why don't we dig it out?”

Lin Ran looked at Huo Qiyun as if he was looking at an idiot. He picked up a rock and handed it over. “Come, try breaking it.”

Without hesitation, Huo Qiyun unsheathed his sword and split the rock into two. “And then?”

Lin Ran frowned and threw the stone at Huo Qiyun. “You can't use a sword!”

“Tsk! Why didn't you say so earlier!”

As Huo Qiyun spoke, he picked up a stone the size of an egg and crushed it into pieces using his internal energy,

Lin Ran handed him another fist-sized stone. “Try this again.”

After Huo Qiyun crushed it again, Lin Ran handed him another stone the size of a human head.

Huo Qiyun took a deep breath. “What exactly do you want?”

Lin Ran didn't reply. Huo Qiyun took it. This stone was too big to hold, so he could only crush it with both hands.

“Did you notice?”

Lin Ran asked without rhyme or reason, his expression mysterious under the flickering flames.

Huo Qiyun was about to shake his head when he suddenly thought of something and said in confusion, “Why is the hardness of these stones different?”

“That's right. Stones in Mount Sword are very strange. The larger the stone, the harder it is.”

Lin Ran nodded and patted the stone wall in front of him. “And what you're going to dig now is the main peak of Mount Sword. Do you know how big it is? Do you know how hard it is? Do you know how long it will take you to dig it out?”

The three “do you know” questions silenced Huo Qiyun.

Lin Ran sighed and turned his attention to the sheath of the Ten Miles Dragon Roar. “Speaking of which, do you know why the Ten Miles Dragon Roar and the sheath are stored separately?”

Huo Qiyun shook his head. “When I was with Grandpa Sword God back then, this sword had a scabbard. It should have been left in the palace as a token when he went into seclusion, right?”

“I think it's the key.”

Lin Ran muttered to himself and suddenly remembered the secret room under the Hidden Sword Pavilion. There was a secret passage leading to Mount Sword that was opened by a necklace passed down from generation to generation in the royal family.

Since that secret passage was left behind by the Ten Mile Sword God, could there be a similar thing on Mount Sword?

Before Lin Ran could think further, Huo Qiyun suddenly asked, “Is the Ten Miles Dragon Roar still vibrating?”

Lin Ran held the hilt of his sword and nodded. Huo Qiyun said, “That means that this array formation is still active… When did you discover this situation?”

“Just now.”

Lin Ran replied casually. After saying that, he felt that something was wrong. It seemed that he had felt the vibration of the Ten Miles Dragon Roar earlier, but at that time, he was busy looking for the remains of the Ten Miles Sword God, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

In that case…

“It was when I first entered Mount Sword.”

Lin Ran corrected his answer and paused for a moment before saying, “The vibration at that time was stronger than now. I thought that the Ten Miles Dragon Roar resonated with the sword intent here, so I didn't pay much attention to it.”

“In that case, there should be at least two array formations here.”

Huo Qiyun thought for a moment and placed his hand on the stone wall that blocked the entrance. He continued, “If there's only one array formation, this stone wall will appear when the only array formation is activated. It's impossible for us to enter…”

Halfway through, Huo Qiyun suddenly closed his eyes. After a moment, he shook his head. “You're right. This is a spatial array formation. We're no longer in our original positions.”

Lin Ran was not surprised. After experiencing a series of phenomenons, he felt that everything could happen here.

Holding the Ten Miles Dragon Roar, Lin Ran said, “There's good news now. The vibration has weakened.”

Huo Qiyun frowned. “What kind of good news is this?”

Lin Ran patted the stone wall beside him. “As long as the array formation is still working, this stone path will keep moving us through the mountain. Let's put it this way. Our position is constantly changing. It's impossible to dig our way out because we don't know where we are.”

Huo Qiyun instantly understood what Lin Ran meant and continued, “So we know that when the array formation stops, we might return to our previous positions. Even if we can't, our position is relatively fixed, so we can dig it out at that time… But didn't you say that this stone is very hard?”

“In the current situation, we can only use force to break through.”

Lin Ran leaned against the stone wall. It was obvious that he had already begun to give up. As he spoke, he threw the Ten Miles Dragon Roar to Huo Qiyun. “Why don't you study the array formation on it? You might be able to control the array formation to send us out.”

Huo Qiyun caught the Ten Miles Dragon Roar and looked at the complicated patterns. He felt dizzy and quickly returned it to Lin Ran. “Let's do it your way. Your way is quite good.”

With that, Huo Qiyun also sat down against the stone wall. Lin Ran extinguished the fire attribute spiritual energy, and the darkness swallowed the two of them again.
