The ruins of the Duiwei Altar are located at the bottom of a collapsed valley.

When Lin Feng arrived, the altar was already completely shattered.

Unlike the Kun position altar he destroyed, the Kun position was shattered by him with gunshots and swords, and the fragments were distributed in a regular pattern, radiating outward from the center.

The way to break this position is different.

The bone column burst open from the inside.

The fragments shattered outwards, leaving a dark golden scorch mark at the base of the bone pillar.

Lin Feng squatted down and used the tip of his gun to pick off a piece of bone.

The patterns on the scorch marks were exactly the same as the clan emblem on the chest of the white robes worn by the white owl and white crane.

The Bai family's runes.

Breaking the Formation Talisman.

Consumable magical artifacts that dismantle the array structure from within.

It's not cheap; one sheet costs at least tens of millions, and the effects aren't a panacea.

However, if the formation structure of the altar is known in advance, targeted formation-breaking talismans can be embedded into the formation's core to destroy the entire formation from the inside.

Lin Feng put the bone fragment into his storage ring.

Continue flipping through.

In the southeast corner of the altar ruins, he found a second thing.

A jade communication symbol about the size of a thumb.

It was half broken, but the white family crest on the talisman was still clearly visible.

The communication talisman still contained faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.

Lin Feng infused his mental energy into the message and intercepted the last piece of information.

It was intermittent, but the keywords were very clear.

"...The Dui position has been destroyed and the dragon vein has become loose. Inform the patriarch...prepare the guiding formation."

The voice was clearly Song Jiao's.

Lin Feng also took the communication talisman.

Two pieces of physical evidence.

The white family runes on the broken bones, the instructions recorded in the communication talisman, plus the confession extracted from Song Jiao in the underground cave.

The Bai family colluded with the Eastern Navy Region to deliberately destroy the seal of Zhenlongtai, attempting to trigger a dragon vein riot and use the essence of the earth vein to enhance the family's strength.

This line is enough to give Bai Yong a hard time.

Lin Feng stood up and stuffed all the evidence into the special compartment of his storage ring.

Duan Hongyuan is still holding the fort in the core area.

We need to get back quickly.

He flipped himself onto the earth dragon and flew towards the core area.

It had only flown less than three kilometers.

The communicator rang.

Zhou Yuan's voice was so urgent it was almost broken.

"Lieutenant Lin! Chief of Staff Duan's qi and blood fluctuations are weakening! The array patterns on the stone platform are starting to dim again!"

Lin Feng tightened his grip on the dragon horns.

How did you know?

"Qin Lie's team has a detection-type mind master who says the oppressive aura in the core area is increasing again! It feels the same as before the beast tide!"

Duan Hongyuan said it would take at most two hours.

Only an hour has passed.

Emperor Wu poured his vital energy into the stone platform, consuming far more energy than anticipated.

The dragon vein is reversing its course and swallowing the dragon vein; Duan Hongyuan cannot withstand it for more than two hours.

Lin Feng did not hesitate.

"Earth Dragon, full speed!"

The earth dragon stomped its four claws, its body stretching into a straight line as it plunged into the blood mist.

The speed was pushed to the limit. The blood mist was torn apart by the dragon's body, shattered in two, and then closed up again behind it.

Five kilometers, three minutes.

The stone platform came into view.

Duan Hongyuan was still standing, but his posture had changed.

Previously, he placed one palm on the stone platform, but now he has both palms on it, and both arms are shaking.

The brightness of the golden aura decreased by half.

The rotation speed of the array patterns also slowed down.

The pulse of the dragon's body inside the crack rang out again.

Hey, hey, hey.

Each one is heavier than the last.

"chief of staff."

Duan Hongyuan did not turn around.

"You're back?"

"The outside has been cleared. All three teams have been rescued, and the beast tide has been suppressed."

Duan Hongyuan's breathing became heavier.

"What about the exchange position?"

"It's destroyed. The Bai family did it. Song Jiao used the Bai family's formation-breaking talisman to blow it up from the inside. I found physical evidence."

Duan Hongyuan paused for a moment.

He didn't turn around, but the voice he forced out was a few decibels deeper than before.

"That old bastard Bai Yong, he's got his hands on things way too far."

"Chief of Staff, how much longer can you hold out?"

"Half an hour."

Lin Feng glanced at the array patterns on the stone platform.

The light was still spinning, but at half the speed it had been before he left.

Duan Hongyuan's blood and qi were being poured into it, but the speed at which it was being poured in could not keep up with the speed at which the dragon vein was swallowing it back.

It cannot be filled.

Even a Martial Emperor couldn't withstand the backlash from the entire dragon vein with just one person's vital energy.

Unless there is another way.

Lin Feng's mind raced.

The Kun position is destroyed, and the Dui position is destroyed.

Two of the eight altars are missing, and two corners of the seal are missing.

What if we could fill in the two missing corners?

It's not about repairing the altar.

The altar's structure is too complex; without a formation master present, it cannot be rebuilt in a short time.

But what if we use something else instead?

Lin Feng reached into his storage ring and rummaged through it for a couple of seconds.

I touched something.

An S-class spatial sealing artifact retrieved from the corpse of a white crane. It is a golden cone with array patterns on its surface.

Turn it over again.

There were three high-level array stones in the storage ring taken from Bai Xiao.

The consumables carried by the Bai family members were of high quality.

He also had a copy of an S-level formation blueprint that he obtained in the secret realm.

Lin Feng took everything out and spread it on the ground.

"Chief of Staff, do you know the locations of the key points in the formation, specifically the Kun and Dui positions?"

Duan Hongyuan's palms were still pressed on the stone platform, and golden blood and energy were flowing into them.

"What are you going to do?"

"Fit the formation."

Duan Hongyuan was stunned for half a second.

"You know formations?"

"No. But I have the blueprints and the materials. Just tell me where to put them."

Duan Hongyuan's lips twitched.

"Are you fucking kidding me? Repairing an array requires at least a fourth-grade array master..."

"Can I be a psychic?"

Duan Hongyuan shut up.

A mentalist's control over runes is, in some ways, even more precise than that of a formation master.

Array masters rely on experience and theory, while mind masters rely on the violent micro-management of mental power.

"Theoretically..."

Duan Hongyuan's voice was hesitant.

"You have no foundation in formations. If the spiritual energy you pour in goes astray, the entire Dragon Suppression Platform will explode."

"Then we won't go the wrong way."

Lin Feng squatted down and spread a copy of the S-level formation blueprint on the ground.

He channeled his spiritual energy into the blueprint, and the array pattern of eight circles on the incomplete blueprint clearly emerged.

The structure of the key points of each altar is largely the same.

At its core is a blood-gathering stone, surrounded by eight blood-guiding lines that connect to the main array of the Dragon Suppression Platform.

He does not need to rebuild the entire altar.

All you need to do is place a substitute at the Kun and Dui positions, and then reconnect the blood-guiding patterns.

The internal structure of the spatial sealing artifact contains spatial array patterns, which are not compatible with the blood-guiding patterns.

However, the outer shell of the ritual implement is made of blood-coagulating crystal, which has the property of guiding qi and blood.

Break the outer shell, remove the fragments of the Blood Clotting Crystal, and rearrange them into the shape of blood-guiding patterns.

He forcibly infused it with his mental energy, forcing the fragments to resonate with the main formation of the Dragon Suppression Platform.

Brute force solution.

It's rough, but it's good enough.

Lin Feng did not discuss it with Duan Hongyuan again.

He shattered the golden outer shell of the spatial sealing artifact with a single palm strike.

Fragments of the Blood Coagulation Crystal were scattered all over the ground, each piece glowing with a pale red light.

The power of the spirit spread out.

With the enhancement of the Eye of Ten Thousand Beasts, the density of mental energy can be controlled with precision down to the millimeter level.

The fragments were lifted into the air by his telekinetic power.

One by one, they were embedded into the Kun position of the formation's core on the ground.

The arrangement should follow the pattern on the drawing.

The first piece got stuck in the center of the formation.

The second piece connects to the first branch of the blood-guiding pattern.

The third piece, the fourth piece...

Lin Feng's forehead began to sweat.

The angle and depth of each fragment must be perfect, otherwise the energy flow to the main formation will be disrupted.

His mental energy was operating with extremely high precision, and all thirty-six fragments were simultaneously held in mid-air, returning to their positions one by one.

Duan Hongyuan sensed the change.

The array patterns on the stone platform lit up briefly.

It was very faint, but it lit up.

"You're really something, aren't you?"

Lin Feng didn't have time to reply.

The last fragment was embedded in the Kun position of the formation.

A surge of mental energy suddenly poured in.

hum!

The blood-guiding patterns in the Kun position lit up again.

Dark red light shone through the gaps between the fragments, flowing along the array patterns on the ground towards the Dragon Suppression Platform.

It's connected.

The pressure from Duan Hongyuan's palms decreased sharply.

"good!"

Lin Feng didn't stop.

He took two of the three high-level array stones and processed them in the same way, quickly arranging the fragments at the array eye position of the Dui position.

This time it's even faster.

Having gained experience with the Kun position, my technique has become much more skillful.

Two minutes later.

The key point of the Dui formation has returned to its original position.

hum!

A second dark red light appeared.

The array patterns on the Dragon Suppression Platform have recovered to 80% of their original speed.

The pulse in the crack slowed down.

Duan Hongyuan removed his hand from the stone platform. His golden aura receded, his face turned ashen, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he remained standing.

"Temporary," Duan Hongyuan said, panting. "These fragments won't last long, at most three to five days. We'll have to find a proper array master to repair them when we get back."

That's enough.

Lin Feng stood up, his knees feeling a little weak.

The mental energy consumption was too great.

After nearly five minutes of continuous high-precision micro-operations, my mind was buzzing.

He took the two pieces of evidence out of his storage ring and handed them to Duan Hongyuan.

"The broken bones from the Duiwei altar bear the Bai family's runes. Song Jiao's communication talisman contains recorded instructions."

Duan Hongyuan took it and scanned it with his mental energy.

His face darkened.

After reading the contents of the communication talisman, Duan Hongyuan put both items into his storage ring.

"Does Bai Yong want to use the essence of the dragon vein to break through to the Martial Emperor realm?"

"I guessed."

"I'm pretty close to right," Duan Hongyuan sighed. "That old bastard's gone mad. He's willing to give up the entire Hundred Thousand Mountains just to break through his own limits."

He turned to look at Lin Feng.

"This evidence, along with the previous Gu family case, Bai Xiuzhe's matter, and Bai He and Bai Xiao's incursion into the restricted area to ambush and kill the contestants, is enough."

"Enough of what?"

Duan Hongyuan managed to squeeze out two words.

"Extermination of the entire clan."
