Chapter 526: Mission Impossible
Chapter 526: Mission Impossible
The battle raged on within the Nine-Nine Yuan Dragon Array, intermittently erupting with various explosions.
As the array's coverage wasn't extensive, Li Qian could clearly hear every sound.
He remained unconcerned.
The clashing sounds of combat were intense, and while they seemed dangerous, they posed no threat to life.
Under the suppression of the Nine-Nine Yuan Dragon Array, no extraordinary beings emerging from the dimensional rift or the team's contracted beasts could surpass the Imperial Peak in combat power.
According to Li Qian's knowledge, the weakest among the seventeen team members had reached the Imperial Peak.
Even if they faced adversity, they could hold their ground, ensuring no life-threatening situations.
The team continued their advance.
Li Qian, part of the group, found himself in a perilous environment, with extraordinary beings frequently darting out.
However, none of these beings were his concern.
After about ten minutes of forward movement, the group finally reached their destination.
As Feng Shijun suddenly came to a halt, the others stopped as well and began to survey their surroundings with caution.
"We're here," Feng Shijun said, holding a compass and focusing intently.
Zhao Zihuan nodded in agreement, "Now that we've located the array's eye, let's get to work without delay."
With that, he vigorously waved his hand.
In response to his gesture, the surrounding beastmasters immediately darted off in different directions.
The next step was crucial—setting up the array's eye, which must proceed without any disruptive factors.
The beastmasters rushed out, forming a perimeter around the area, adhering to the pre-arranged strategy for dealing with potential threats.
Li Qian observed the departing beastmasters without concern. He approached Feng Shijun, curious to see how she would handle the situation.
Just as he drew close, a miniature flag, about the size of a lollipop, appeared before his eyes.
Simultaneously, a familiar voice rang out in his ear, "Li Qian, this isn't the true location of the array's eye. The actual position is at the ten o'clock direction, thirty meters from here."
"Take this flag and plant it to complete the final step of the setup."
Li Qian, startled by the voice in his head, remained motionless.
The voice in his ear was familiar, and he instantly recognized it as Feng Shijun.
Hearing her words, Li Qian didn't react. Instead, he subtly glanced at Zhao Zihuan beside him.
Zhao Zihuan met his gaze and gently nodded.
Understanding their intention, Li Qian acted without hesitation. He took the flag, no larger than a lollipop, and feigned curiosity as he scanned the surroundings.
The direction he surveyed was the very spot Feng Shijun had indicated.
Indeed, from the start of the operation, Li Qian had been puzzled.
With such a covert operation, so crucial and pivotal, why was there no additional security?
Deploying so openly, wasn't he concerned about infiltrators from the cult organization causing disruption?
As it turned out, Zhao Zihuan and his team had already anticipated this possibility.
By employing the strategy of openly marching while secretly crossing the river, they not only ensured a smooth array setup but might also identify a few troublemakers.
Even if there were no troublemakers, the cult organization hadn't infiltrated, and this setup would incur no losses.
After understanding the situation, Li Qian couldn't help but nod slightly in his heart.
Li Qian feigned nonchalance, observing and patrolling the area, soon approaching the spot where Feng Shijun had communicated with him.
As he surveyed the area, Li Qian subconsciously unleashed his Beast Mastery talent, "True Sight Eye."
With the activation of True Sight Eye, Li Qian could clearly perceive the raging energy flow around him.
However, it was precisely because he sensed the energy flow that, combined with Tu Qingyuan's explanation of array principles and his prior knowledge of arrays, Li Qian noticed something amiss.
He subtly slowed his steps, beginning to focus his observation.
But no matter how he looked, he couldn't detect the energy fluctuations that Feng Shijun had mentioned at that location.
According to Tu Qingyuan, the array eye was the energy release point for the entire Nine-Nine Yuan Dragon Array.
The fundamental principle of this array's ability to suppress all extraordinary beings above the Imperial Peak rank within its confines lay in energy extraction.
The extracted energy would accumulate in the array eye, and theoretically, at this moment, the energy currents at the array eye should be extremely violent and turbulent.
However, after carefully observing the spot Feng Shijun had indicated several times, while the energy flow was indeed unstable, it wasn't as "raging" as expected.
This was an unusual phenomenon.
As he focused his observation, two thoughts emerged in Li Qian's mind.
There were only two possible outcomes for this situation: first, his perception was incorrect.
The complexity of the Nine-Nine Yuan Dragon Array exceeded his understanding.
The true array eye was indiscernible from the surface.
S
She was intentionally misleading him, playing a game of espionage.
If Li Qian's speculation was correct, that location was likely not just a simple mistake.
Both scenarios were possible.
Either could be true.
As he pondered, Li Qian made up his mind.
He pretended to be nonchalant, continuing his approach, but secretly, he communicated with Zhao Zihuan.
He couldn't vouch for others, but Zhao Zihuan was undoubtedly reliable.
"Chancellor Zhao, the spot Feng Shijun mentioned might be problematic. I'll go and check it out, keep an eye on me."
After conveying his message to Zhao Zihuan, Li Qian wasted no more time and proceeded directly.
Simultaneously, as Li Qian took action, Zhao Zihuan, having received the communication, was already on high alert.
As for Li Qian's safety, he wasn't overly concerned.
If Li Qian dared to attempt this, he likely had a trump card for survival.
Li Qian's possession of such a trump card was something Zhao Zihuan didn't doubt.
After all, he was Shazhou Beastmaster University's once-in-a-century nurturing genius.
It was only natural for the school to value geniuses and provide them with trump cards.
Li Qian approached slowly, and in his hand, at some point, the flag, about the size of a lollipop, had grown into a regular-sized flag.
Without hesitation, Li Qian took the flag and forcefully thrust it into the spot indicated by Feng Shijun.
