The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 3008 Second-Order Divine Array
The old dog realized he had lost his composure as soon as he agreed.

Originally, this matter required the three of them to discuss it before making a decision.

But now, because he was so eager to prolong his life, he was impatient and agreed to the other party's request.

"Fellow Daoist who kills immortals..."

Old Dog tried to say something, but Zheng Tuo interrupted him.

"It's alright. Since we've already promised, we'll help them out."

Zheng Tuo didn't say anything.

He wasn't familiar with the old dog, and their relationship wasn't very good.

At this moment, he understood the old dog's feelings.

When one's lifespan is nearing its end, one encounters something that can prolong life, and may even have the opportunity to break through one's own limitations and reach the second level of the Breaker Realm.

Faced with such temptation, the old dog ultimately couldn't resist.

The Breakers are ultimately just more powerful beings; they also have human emotions and desires.

Old Dog nodded in agreement with what Zheng Tuo said.

He turned his head and looked at Yao Ruxian.

“Ruxian, let’s each hold one person down, thereby relieving the pressure on the White Elephant and allowing it to kill them one by one.”

Old Dog may be anxious, but he's not entirely stupid.

He and Yao Ruxian are keeping the two old antiques occupied, so there won't be much danger for them. On the contrary, Bai Xiang's duel with the last one will definitely be fraught with danger.

"Ah."

Yao Ruxian nodded in agreement.

In Yao Ruxian's heart, Lao Gou was her own grandfather, a relative who taught her Taoist arts, protected her, and raised her.

Her purpose in coming here was twofold: first, to hone her skills and familiarize herself with the current level of a Breaker; and second, to help Old Dog find something to prolong his life.

Now that she has this opportunity, she will do her best to help.

Swipe!

Old Dog and Demon Immortal transformed into two figures and joined the battle.

They each found an old antique to fight against.

Instantly.

The pressure on the white elephant has decreased dramatically.

His own strength is already formidable, and now in a one-on-one situation, he should be able to suppress his opponent and has the means to kill him.

"Fellow Daoists, you must not cooperate with the White Elephant, or you will only bring trouble upon yourselves."

The white-haired old man shouted at the old dog and the demon Ruxian, trying to make them stop fighting.

The old dog and the demon immortal remained unmoved and still intervened, blocking two of them and allowing the white-haired old man and the white elephant to fight fiercely.

"Fellow Daoists, do you really believe what the White Elephant said? As the spirit beast guarding the White Lotus, it would never let anyone know about this place. You will both be killed here! Stop! Stop now!"

Despite the white-haired old man's shouts, the old dog and the demon immortal remained unmoved and forcefully separated the two old antiques from the battlefield.

Despite these two old fogies going all out, Old Dog and Demon Immortal were no pushovers either.

The two sides clashed and fought, making it difficult to determine a winner.

Simultaneously.

The white elephant, facing the white-haired old man, was filled with murderous intent.

Now, it's just you and me left.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, the white elephant made its move directly, attacking the white-haired old man.

The battle between the two sides began in an instant.

They fought fiercely, their fighting spirit soaring, reaching its peak with every breath.

The White Elephant's combat strength goes without saying; he was already powerful, not to mention the blessing of the divine array.

On the other hand, the white-haired old man knew at this moment that he had to fight desperately, because if he didn't, he would really be buried here.

He unleashed his full power, his body surging with Dao patterns, displaying his incomparably violent strength.

The two powerful figures engaged in a frenzied battle that was so destructive that it seemed they wanted to completely overturn the world.

however.

Outside the divine formation at this moment.

Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, stared at the space in front of him with an inscrutable expression.

In his perception, it was true that the Immortal Slayer Dao was present, but he could not sense the terrifying battle taking place within the divine array at this moment.

Think about it for a moment.

He then landed on the ground.

They set off to measure the divine array in the mountains and forests, searching for a way to break it from the outside.

Although he didn't know what was happening inside the divine array, he understood that the divine array in front of him was no ordinary divine array.

The divine array before us has probably reached the level of a second-tier divine array.

The second-tier divine array corresponds to the second level of the Breaker's Realm.

Such a divine formation must be extremely dangerous inside.

If the three members of the Immortal Slayers enter and find danger inside, they will surely be imprisoned.

and so.

He began to search for ways to break the formation from the outside.

Furthermore.

Second-tier divine arrays are truly rare to encounter, and now that I've come across one, I can study it thoroughly.

Thinking about this...

He continued to measure the divine array here, hoping to break the second-order divine array from the outside.

now.

Inside the divine array.

Zheng Tuo, the Immortal Slayer, strode forward, searching for a way to break the divine array.

He soon discovered that the divine array he was in was not a simple divine array, but a second-order divine array.

The so-called second-order divine array is a divine array set up by a master of array formations who has broken through the second level of the barrier.

In the primordial immortal realm, array masters, apart from earth gods, were almost extinct.

Thinking about it this way, this divine array was very likely left behind by some powerful figure in the past.

It would be best if it wasn't a divine array set up by the White Elephant. If it were, it could unleash the full power of the array, thus demonstrating the combat strength of a second-level Breaker.

With his current strength, he is no match for someone at the second level of the Breakthrough Realm, even with the help of Yao Ruxian and Lao Gou.

With this in mind, he remained patient, measuring the array formation around him, trying to find a way to break it.

Simultaneously.

He saw it too.

The battle between the white elephant and the white-haired old man in the distance was exceptionally brutal.

The white elephant, which had been suppressed by the three old antiques, has now completely turned the tables.

In one-on-one situations, the White Elephant demonstrated astonishing dominance.

The white-haired old man was beaten back step by step, his whole body covered in blood, his white hair disheveled, and his breathing unstable.

The fact that he looked like he could be killed at any moment worried Zheng Tuo.

He didn't know much about the White Elephant, but judging from the fighting power it was displaying, he knew he was no match for it.

If, in the future, the White Elephant denies its promise and instead attacks them, then...

Given his and the old dog demon's strength, it would probably be difficult for them to kill the white elephant.

He had to make preparations in advance for this matter; otherwise, they might really be buried here.

With these thoughts in mind, he continued to measure the area.

Damn it!

The white-haired old man, now suppressed by the white elephant, understood that the situation was hopeless.

The three of them accidentally discovered the white lotus flower and were then trapped there.

Originally, they had the opportunity to kill the White Elephant and seize the White Lotus, but because they each concealed their strength, they were unable to kill the White Elephant immediately, thus missing the best opportunity.

Greed ultimately cost them dearly.

after all.

There is only one white lotus flower, and it can only give one person a second chance at life.

All three of them wanted to be the final winner, and all of them wanted to be reborn.

even.

In their mutual scheming, the three wanted to seize the original Dao patterns on each other's bodies.

Now, because of their own ulterior motives and calculations, the current situation has arisen.

He knew he couldn't defeat the White Elephant. The White Elephant's strength was comparable to his own, and it also had the blessing of the divine array. How could he possibly be a match for it?

Thinking of this, he turned and ran, trying to escape the place.

But this divine array was like a cage, and no matter how he tried to escape, he couldn't get out.

There was no other way, so he could only communicate telepathically with the other two.

"You two, if we don't join forces to break through this encirclement, we'll probably both be buried here today!"

Upon hearing this, both of them, who were originally fighting the old dog demon Confucian immortal, understood the seriousness of the matter.

"Show us what you've got to break through!" one of them shouted.

Seeing this, the white-haired old man didn't hesitate and immediately took out an array plate.

After the array was activated, the three powerful individuals immediately entered the array.

With the combined strength of the three, the formation was activated immediately.

hum!
The divine formation transformed into a majestic lion and appeared at the scene.

Roar!
The lion roared, wreaking havoc on heaven and earth, and began attacking the surrounding divine array, attempting to break through at this moment.

however.

The lion's attack struck the surrounding divine array, yet it failed to break through it.

"Not good, this divine formation is a second-tier divine formation!"

The white-haired old man immediately discovered the key to the problem.

"Second-order divine formation!"

The old dog and the demon were both filled with astonishment!

Second-order divine arrays and first-order divine arrays are completely different concepts.

“I say to my two fellow Daoists, within this second-tier divine formation, if the White Elephant wanted to kill you, he probably would have a way.”

The white-haired old man called out to the old dog and the demon Ruxian, trying to find them to join forces.

If these five powerful individuals could join forces, even with the White Elephant's second-tier divine array, they would still be able to defeat their opponent.

"It's no use!" White Elephant strode over. "We've already made a deal. Today, the three of you must die."

The white elephant, not wanting the white-haired old man to continue, took action directly, and the three formed a lion.

The lion and the white elephant are at war once again.

Seeing this, the old dog and the demon looked at each other.

The second-tier divine array did indeed have an impact on the two of them, because it represented the existence of a second-level barrier breaker.

If Bai Xiang really goes back on his word, the two of them, along with Zheng Tuo, will likely be in great danger.

Seeing their hesitation, the white elephant immediately took out five petals and handed them to the old dog.

“Fellow Daoists, please take the white lotus petals first. I, Bai Xiang, keep my word and can swear here that I will never deceive you.”

Seeing that he had the white lotus petals in his hand, the old dog didn't hesitate any longer and attacked the lion.

After pondering for a moment, Yao Ruxian also joined the battle.

only.

Yao Ruxian communicated with Zheng Tuo again.

"Since things have come to this, let's fight for now. Don't expend too much energy; just assist from the side. I'm looking for a way to break the formation. Although it's a second-tier formation, it's not a naturally formed second-tier divine formation. Once I find the core of the formation, I can easily break it."

Zheng Tuo's words put Yao Ruxian at ease.

She turned and threw herself into the battle, appearing fierce but actually assisting White Elephant.

The battle between the six powerful figures begins at this moment.

The massive tremor did not affect Zheng Tuo.

Zheng Tuo continued his leisurely stroll.

Huh?
A thought struck him, and he sensed something interesting.

Every time the White Elephant uses the divine array in battle, it causes changes in the second-tier divine array.

It seems that Bai Xiang only mastered part of the way to use this second-tier divine array. If he had fully mastered it, those three old antiques would have been killed by him long ago.

good thing.

Good thing!
He put his hands behind his back, took a step, and continued to measure the area.

suddenly!

He stopped and looked at the dense forest ahead.

A figure appeared in the dense forest.

It was a little girl, wearing a white dress, barefoot, looking at him with adoration.

There are actually living beings inside this second-tier divine array!
He took a step forward, trying to get closer to the girl in the white dress.

But the little girl turned and disappeared into the dense forest. Seeing this, Zheng Tuo did not rush to follow her.

As Zheng Tuo traveled along, he unknowingly entered a fog.

He didn't panic.

As a formation master, he clearly understood that everything happening around him at this moment was a normal phenomenon.

Wandering through the mist, eyes fixed ahead.

The little girl's shadow remained, but her face was no longer visible; only an outline could be seen.

Zheng Tuo was doing just that.

A figure appeared ahead.

Immediately afterwards, another figure appeared beside that one, and then yet another…

A total of six figures appeared in the mist.

They were of different heights and races, all hidden in the mist.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Tuo immediately became alert!
An unexpected situation arose, and instead of continuing forward, he looked at the six dark figures ahead.

call!
A strong wind blew through the mist, and he could clearly see the appearance of the six figures.

That is?

The six figures were not living beings, but six skeletons.

Among them are four humanoid skeletons and two demon skeletons.

Six skeletons stood there like statues at this moment.

Zheng Tuo was puzzled. He carefully sensed the six skeletons but did not detect any powerful aura from them.

He cautiously approached the six skeletons, and after a brief inspection, he was astonished to discover...

The bones of the six skeletons were exceptionally hard, comparable to innate treasures, clearly indicating that they had been refined using techniques for crafting magical artifacts.

A puppet?

Is someone making puppets here?

He is not only a master of formations, but also a master of puppetry, and even possesses some of the inheritance of the God of Puppetry.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the six skeletons were not puppets, but rather humanoid magical artifacts created using techniques for crafting magical treasures.

Humanoid magical artifacts are essentially similar to puppets, except that puppets possess simple independent thinking abilities, while humanoid magical artifacts do not; they can only be used as tools for combat.

Thinking to myself, I carefully and slowly checked.

This is?

He was shocked to discover this during his examination.

On the bones of the six humanoid magical artifacts, there were Dao patterns at the level of those who had broken through the barriers.

Could it be that...?
He considered a possibility and was immediately horrified.

Could it be that these six humanoid magical artifacts in front of me were all beings at the level of Breakthrough in their previous lives?
Otherwise, how do you explain the Dao patterns on their bones?

Dao patterns are something that only those who break through the barriers possess, not to mention that all six humanoid magic treasures have Dao patterns on their bones.

Turning the corpse of a wallbreaker into a magical artifact—whoever had such a grand ambition was it.

He thought to himself that he should not pursue the root cause any further.

He saw something glowing behind the six humanoid magical artifacts.

Is the key point of the formation here?

A thought struck him, and he immediately bypassed the six humanoid magical artifacts and approached the glowing object.

Just as he passed the six humanoid magical artifacts and was about to continue his journey.

moment!

He instinctively sensed danger.

brush!
He retreated rapidly, looking at the six humanoid magical artifacts.

At this moment.

The six humanoid magical artifacts, which had been quiet, seemed to have been activated. Their eyes glowed red, and they turned their heads with a crackling sound as they looked at him.
