Chapter 1229 - 1084: Cremation of Resentful Spirits
Duan Gujin pondered for a moment. He knew that many people here today had seen Shi Potian lead them into this place.It's understandable that some Martial Artists regarded Shi Potian as a cheater.
From the current perspective, Shi Potian seemed overly prepared, as if he had known in advance that he would encounter any danger here.
Only Duan Gujin knew Shi Potian's identity as a Tomb Robber, naturally, Shi Potian would have everything necessary for tomb robbing prepared in advance.
"Everyone, step back!"
Shi Potian decided to give it his all, casting a Spell, and using a Spirit Binder to push the stone war cart toward the Green Stone ahead.
Many Martial Artists present had heard about a mystical artifact in the Divine World that specializes in countering Mechanical Traps. However, only a few had been fortunate enough to witness such a Treasure, and today their eyes were opened wide.
The wheels of the stone war cart crushed some Green Stones, and the Green Stones immediately erupted with loud explosions.
Beneath the crushed Green Stones lay a Mechanical Trap which was triggered as the stone war cart rolled over it.
Although the triggered Mechanical Trap activated an Array, the energy unleashed by the Array was entirely absorbed by the stone war cart.
The energy from the Mechanical Trap's explosion vanished into thin air, like a bubble popping.
The crowd watched as the stone war cart advanced step by step, and when they saw colorful smoke emerging from under the Green Stone, they guessed that the stone war cart had destroyed the Mechanical Trap beneath the Green Stone.
Everyone was full of joyful surprise; for them, Shi Potian using the stone war cart to crush the Green Stone meant they no longer had to face the Mechanical Trap beneath it with trepidation.
Some Martial Artists present had a glitter in their eyes and only now realized they knew nothing about this place, whereas Shi Potian understood everything very clearly.
"Shameful! Cheating!"
Those Martial Artists wanted to use a Recording Crystal to document what was happening and inform the elders responsible for this test, accusing Shi Potian of cheating.
However, when they released the Recording Crystal, they found it was severely interfered with and couldn't record anything happening before them at all.
Left with no alternative, they could only file a report with their real names.
Shi Potian had heard of the Hengduan Mountain Water Painting before. He had been here in his previous life; to him, the Mechanical Traps on the Green Stone were not intimidating.
Fifteen minutes later, the stone war cart stopped moving.
At this moment, a giant stone pillar sprung up from the ground in front of a Green Stone.
Shi Potian rushed forward immediately and examined the stone pillar; soon, he found a storage ring inside.
His Divine Sense entered the storage ring, and in the next moment, he found a map inside the storage ring.
He opened the map and carefully compared it with the surrounding terrain.
After a while, he realized roughly where the Hengduan Mountain Water Painting was located.
Thus, he put away the stone war cart and then pressed a switch on the Array on the stone pillar.
As long as he pressed that Array switch, the entire local Array would stop.
"Everyone, the landscape painting is ahead of us, let's charge on!"
Shi Potian shouted loudly and invited others to advance with him.
The other Martial Artists present hesitated for a moment, but eventually, they followed Shi Potian forward.
However, many Martial Artists darted sharp glances, speculating that Shi Potian must have cheated, and the rest of the time would merely be Shi Potian's solo performance.
They were discontented, but if they intended to expose Shi Potian's act, they had to go with him into the place with the landscape painting.
After advancing for some distance, Shi Potian instructed the Martial Artists behind him to ready themselves to face the resentful spirits.
"Everyone, there are five resentful spirits ahead. These five resentful spirits are part of the Array. Only by defeating these five resentful spirits together can we break into the underground passage inside the cave and find the landscape painting!"
Shi Potian said.
The Martial Artists present glanced at one another, silent, unable to discern whether Shi Potian's words were true or false.
They were all thinking rapidly; some even guessed that Shi Potian was finding an excuse to use those resentful spirits to dispose of them.
"Is this guy planning to kill and silence us?"
Among the Martial Artists present, especially those who had intended to report earlier, Shi Potian's words were even more unbelievable.
One Martial Artist immediately said, "Friend, would you mind showing us the map, so we can all take a look at it?"
"Sure!"
Shi Potian understood that this Martial Artist in front of him definitely did not believe his words, so he took out the map right away for that Martial Artist to see.
After a quick scan with his Divine Sense, the Martial Artist quickly memorized the map.
"Show it to the others too!"
Shi Potian said earnestly.
"Alright!"
The Martial Artist immediately passed the map to the others to inspect, and after a while, they returned the map to Shi Potian.
Duan Gujin also looked at the map; he quickly memorized it.
He believed that the map Shi Potian showed them was indeed real, and moreover, it had names of some Arrays and ways to break them written on it.
Many Martial Artists had a flicker in their eyes; they had indeed previously seen Shi Potian obtain a storage ring.
