Chapter 972: The Stone Stele
From the Prayer Pavilion to the Illusion Sea is not far; the Illusion Sea is located at the westernmost edge of the Spirit Cultivation Realm, and the position of the Prayer Pavilion is also in the west of the Spirit Cultivation Realm, so they arrived at the Illusion Sea very quickly.
The Delusion Void Array is located undersea within the Illusion Sea. According to what Xia Qingcheng said at the time, to activate the Delusion Void Array, one only needs to rely on the Divine Power contained within the Shengxue Pearl inside Su Yu. Back then, Xia Ji and Ling Yue joined forces to deceive Yun Zidu into the Illusion Sea, using the Divine Power contained within the Beiming Pearl to thrust him into the Delusion Void Array.
Arriving at the Illusion Sea, looking at the calm and waveless waters, indeed makes it hard to imagine that there is another perilous space concealed underneath. The Illusion Sea merely appears calm on the surface; once you truly reach the sea, you will completely lose your bearings and even experience hallucinations, entirely unaware of your location.
As for reaching the undersea portion of the Illusion Sea, it is even harder to withstand the pressure of the undersea hurricanes. Without the Purple Flame Level strength, it is feared that even reaching the undersea is truly arduous.
Back then, after learning that Yun Zidu was trapped in the Delusion Void Array, several of his friends all came to the undersea of the Illusion Sea to see if there was any solution, but they ended up being forced out and returning with serious injuries.
However, with Ning Shiqi there, such an array was not a difficult matter for him, so Han Jing and the others reached the undersea of the Illusion Sea almost unscathed.
The undersea hurricane was extremely fierce, and the surroundings were pitch black, making it difficult to discern directions. The dense ghost spirits were also quite frightening, with ghostly cries and howls everywhere. If not within a barrier, just listening to the sounds could drive one to mental collapse.
Those unfamiliar with the situation here would be utterly confused upon arrival; here, let alone the entrance to the Delusion Void Array, the dense hordes of ghost spirits blocked any sight of even a piece of seaweed, not to mention any fish. Although the Inner Sea may not match the grandeur and turbulence of the outside sea, such undersea filled only with ghost spirits and raging hurricanes is truly terrifying.
In Su Yu’s palm appeared a cluster of gentle light, and the surroundings immediately brightened up; although the light was already very soft, it was still somewhat glaring in the dim undersea.
Ning Shiqi glanced at everyone and directly said, "When passing through the Barrier Tunnel later, there will be some unbearable pressure. Keep the medicine pills I gave you earlier in your mouth now; after we pass through the tunnel, we will immediately land on an island at the bottom, but we may not land together. But don’t worry, we won’t be too far apart. Leave the task of finding people to me and Lianwu; others should try to stay at a safe place and wait.
Then he looked at Su Yu and said, "We should not linger here for long. Let me lead the way; there’s a talisman at the entrance; you just need to inject Divine Power into the talisman, and the space will open."
Su Yu nodded.
Somehow, a Compass appeared in Ning Shiqi’s hand. He quietly looked at it for a while and then headed in one direction. Everyone hurriedly followed him, and after walking for nearly an hour, they finally reached the place where Ning Shiqi mentioned the talisman was. Without Ning Shiqi leading the way, they probably would have really struggled to find this place.
Only an arm-length talisman was imprinted on a stone tablet, dim and unremarkable. No one could have imagined that the entrance to the famous Delusion Void Array was actually inscribed on such a small, black stone tablet resting at the sea bottom.
