Inverse Sword Mad God

"Over there!"

Zhao Xue extended her jade hand, pointing forward.

Then, everyone looked ahead and indeed saw Lin Xuan there.

"Could it be that Lin Xuan was the first to come out?"

"Does this mean it was Lin Xuan who saved us?"

Everyone looked surprised, shocked in their hearts. This was too incredible; even so many elders hadn't managed to get out, yet Lin Xuan was the one who walked out of the starry sky.

"How exactly did he do it?"

Regarding this question, Lin Xuan just smiled, then pointed to the ground beneath their feet.

"It's a starry sky pattern!" An elder from the Murong Family exclaimed. Could this pattern be an array?

Soon, a group of Array Masters studied it, but they found it wasn't any array they knew; perhaps it was some kind of more advanced array.

However, the Dark Red Divine Dragon shook its head furiously, even a hint of fear in its eyes.

"It's definitely not an array, just a painting. Damn it, what kind of person possesses such heaven-defying means!"

He was too shocked because even he couldn't achieve such means.

"What? This is a painting! Are you saying we've been inside the painting all along?"

Everyone was overwhelmingly shocked and couldn't believe it.

Upon learning this news, everyone was incredibly astonished.

A single painting, just a single painting, trapped every one of them.

If Lin Xuan hadn't come out, they might have been trapped here forever.

"What kind of person possesses such terrifying means?"

An elder from the King Family was shocked; not even a King probably had such means, right?

The group was incredibly shaken, feeling the place was full of eeriness and mystery.

"By the way, did you get the key for the Star Iron Chain?"

Murong Qingcheng looked toward Lin Xuan.

"I got it." Lin Xuan opened his palm, revealing the blue stone inside.

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, despite encountering some dangerous situations, they finally obtained the Star Key.

With this, even when facing the Heavenly Nether Bird, they would have some confidence.

Now that they had the key, everyone left the Star Pavilion, and what they needed to do next was wait for the Heavenly Nether Bird.

While Lin Xuan had succeeded, things were not optimistic over at Azure Pine Pavilion.

Since last time, those Array Masters had been continually researching and finally found a way, so they quickly took action.

However, the defensive array was even stronger than they had imagined, so over these days, they had only managed to break through a little. To completely break it might take two or three months.

And in half a month, the Heavenly Nether Bird would break the Beidou Seven Stars Formation outside and enter the Azure Pine Hall. So within half a month, they simply couldn't complete it.

At this moment, everyone's faces turned extremely somber.

"No, we don't have enough manpower; if we continue like this, we won't be able to break the array at all."

"How about we go find the people from the Murong Family and Happy Forest? I think only by uniting can we quickly break the array."

Upon hearing this, Duan Tianxing furrowed his brows, then said in a deep voice, "Alright, let's go discuss with them."

Soon, several Martial Artists rushed towards the direction of the Star Pavilion.

This team was led by an Array Master, accompanied by three Seventh Realm Venerables, and they moved swiftly, reaching the vicinity of the Star Pavilion in no time.

But the next moment, they froze.

Because, as they had expected, the other side should be like them, having failed to break the array.

But now it seemed the situation was somewhat unusual.

Because those people were sitting cross-legged on the ground, quietly cultivating, without any anxious expressions on their faces.

This surprised them greatly.

They needed to know, over on their side, they were nearly going crazy with anxiety, but here, there was no such commotion; it was truly bizarre.

"Who's sneaking around, get out here!"

While the Array Master from the War God Palace was observing, an elder from the Murong Family suddenly opened his eyes and let out a cold snort.

"Don't be agitated, it's us."

The Array Master from the War God Palace, along with three Martial Artists, stepped out; he didn't want to be misunderstood and attacked by those people.

"It's you?"

Many present recognized that Array Master, including an elder from the Murong Family, who frowned.

"Weren't you breaking the array of Azure Pine Pavilion? Why are you here?"

"To be honest, that array is too difficult to break, and our men simply can't remove it in a short time."

"So, I thought we could join forces to break that array. This way, it can definitely be removed before the Heavenly Nether Bird arrives."

"Otherwise, we'll all die here."

"I knew you couldn't do it, but what does that have to do with me?" The Array Master from the Murong Family said coldly, "You insisted on splitting up initially, and now you want to combine forces."

"Do you think your War God Palace can control everyone?"

Not only the Murong Family, but even the elders from Happy Forest looked unhappy.

Everyone was from the King Family, so why should they listen to the War God Palace, which decided everything?

"I know you two families are displeased, but now is not the time to act on pride. If we can't break the array, none of us can escape alive."

"You're overthinking it; we don't need you to manage our business."

The elder from the Murong Family coldly refused, and others wore similar cold smiles, as if they didn't care about the looming threat.

"You are all fools! Do you really not understand the danger you're in?"

Seeing that people were unmoved, the Array Master from the War God Palace was furious.

"Hmph, if you won't cooperate, then don't blame us. When the array is broken, don't come begging us!"

With that, he snorted coldly and left with a dark face.

Seeing them leave, the Martial Artists from the Murong Family and Happy Forest laughed coldly; they didn't heed the other's threats.

They had already broken the array here and obtained the Star Key. Who would beg whom in the end was still unknown!

However, the elders looked worried: "Mr. Lin, should we really not cooperate with them?"

Hearing this, Lin Xuan shook his head.

"Better not open Azure Pine Pavilion; otherwise, if the array control room is damaged, it would be troublesome."

"In that case, the Heavenly Nether Bird might enter prematurely, and with such little time, we won't master the Star Demon Beast, leaving us with no way out."

Upon hearing this, the other elders nodded. Indeed, the array was critical and must not be destroyed.

"Since that's the case, we'll stay here and observe the situation."

"However, I hope that this Star Key can truly restrain the Heavenly Nether Bird."

"Rest assured, there's still some time; I'll quickly master this Star Key," Lin Xuan said.
