Chapter 1538: Source of it all (2)
Since he was lost in the array, there really wasn’t anything that Lin Fan could do other than continue forward.
After all, it was at the point where he didn’t know where was backwards.
The wall that had been there had long disappeared at this point and it felt like he was standing in the middle of endless space. It was as if no matter which direction he went in, Lin Fan wouldn’t be able to find a single thing.
So the only option that was left for him was to follow the light that came from the token.
But he knew that this was something that was leading him deeper and deeper into the array.
At this rate, it really wasn’t an option...
"System guidance has been activated."
When Lin Fan didn’t know what to do, the system’s voice suddenly rang out and caught him off guard. But that didn’t stop him from becoming excited about what the system said.
In fact, it could be said that the system’s voice had come at just the right time.
Once the system’s voice rang out, there were the familiar clues that appeared around him.
The prompts from the system were similar to the ones that appeared when Lin Fan had faced the paintings, which did make sense since those paintings had been used to create illusion arrays in the first place.
But there was a difference between the two as well since these were proper arrays that were drawn with a different base. It wasn’t an array that was created based on artistic ability, it was an array that was carved with technique.
So the very foundation of the array was different, which created different flaws in the array.
It was just that in the face of the system, none of that mattered.
The system was able to see through the techniques of this array and find all of the flaws that were there. It really drove home just what level the system was at, especially when compared to the array of the Dao Sect.
The Dao Sect was the pinnacle of this cultivation world in the past and even now could be considered the pinnacle since there were no sects that had reached the same level.
But even so, the system was able to dismantle the techniques of the Dao Sect so easily.
"The system is something given to me by a god and gods are on par with the immortals, so it should be considered something from the upper realm, right?"
However as he thought this, Lin Fan couldn’t help wondering if there were things that were similar to the system in the upper realm.
Was it possible that he could create something like the system one day when he ascended?
It took a moment, but he shook those thoughts out of his mind and focused on the flaws that the system showed him. Those were the spots that he had to focus on to break out of the array that trapped him.
Even though he could see it, it wasn’t as if he would be able to break through that easily since it would require something special to interfere with the power of the array.
After observing the array around him for a bit and the weak points that it possessed, Lin Fan finally came to a decision and pulled out an ink brush. After pulling out this ink brush, there was no hesitation as he started writing words in the air.
These glowing words just floated there for a bit until he suddenly finished writing. Then by pointing forward with the ink brush, he sent the glowing words out towards the pillars around him.
The moment that the glowing words hit the pillars, they started to disappear.
It wasn’t that they were being scattered by the array that was in the pillars, it was that they were exerting their power on the array.
After disappearing, Lin Fan could feel that the space around him was shaking.
However, he knew that it wasn’t the actual space itself that was shaking. Rather, it was the array that was shaking because of the effect that he had on it, which made it feel like the space around him was shaking.
But in the end, it didn’t seem like that was enough.
Even though he had used the golden words to attack the weak spots of the array, it seemed like it had been able to recover.
Lin Fan didn’t panic when he saw this didn’t work since he hadn’t expected it to work in the first place. In the first place, this was nothing more than his way of probing the array to see if it was even possible for him to affect it.
Now that this was confirmed, there really was no need for him to hold back.
This time, Lin Fan didn’t stop as he continued moving his hand holding the pen through the air. As he did so, there were more and more golden words that appeared in the air around him.
This time, there were more than a hundred times more words than what he had created previously.
If it was before, Lin Fan might have struggled to do so since it would have taken too much spiritual energy for him to do such a thing. But after learning how to infuse mana into the ink brush, it was easy for him to do so.
Even if there was an array that was controlling the space around him, it didn’t have an effect on mana.
It prevented spiritual sense from spreading since that was what was known on the cultivation continent. Mana on the other hand was a completely foreign concept to the cultivators.
It was natural that they wouldn’t be able to create an array that would be able to restrain mana.
Once he finished gathering all of these golden words around himself, Lin Fan pointed forward with the ink brush and sent them all out.
This time, there was a much bigger reaction that came from the space around him.
In fact, it almost felt like the entire ground was about to split apart with how strong the shaking around him was. But Lin Fan just calmed himself and waited for the array to split apart.
He knew that this was a sign that the array was breaking down, so he was very calm as he waited for this space to show its true appearance.
It didn’t take long for the mist of the array to finally dissipate and he was able to see the true form of this pavilion.
The main hall of this pavilion wasn’t that big, but it wasn’t that small either.
It was just an average size hall that had several pillars standing in it.
Once he saw this, he realized that he had been walking around in a circle while being guided by the array. In fact, he hadn’t even moved that far away from the door that he had entered from.
This array was so powerful that it was able to warp his senses so much that he couldn’t even see the door if it was in front of him if it didn’t want him to.
As expected of the Dao Sect’s techniques...
Once the array had been cleared, Lin Fan was able to see the other side of the room and he found that there was only one door that was there. However, this was a door that was firmly closed, so it wasn’t as if it was inviting him.
When he came closer, he found that there was an array on this door as well.
It was different from the one that he had encountered previously, this was an array that only had a single function.
"So it’s here to protect this room. If it’s an array that was designed to protect, that must mean that there’s something precious that’s hidden behind this room, right?" Lin Fan used the simplest logic when he saw this array.
That was because he wasn’t worried about cracking it.
Even as he was looking at the array, he could see that the system was working its magic.
The system was currently analyzing the array and showing him all of the flaws with it. Once the system finished analyzing this array, then it wouldn’t be a problem for him to break through it.
As he was staring at the array, Lin Fan had to admit that this array really was on a completely different level.
He already had some knowledge from when he had learned about arrays from the Heavenly Demon. As well, he had also exchanged for some information when he had been trapped by the array earlier.
So the system showing him everything like this really was helping him develop as an array master.
At the same time, Lin Fan was also using the ink brush to write words in the air in front of him. Even though the system hadn’t finished analyzing all of the flaws of the array, he was already preparing the words that he needed to deal with the flaws that it had already identified.
It could be said that Lin Fan wasn’t wasting a single second with the way that he was acting.
Once all of the flaws had been revealed, he took a moment to admire this array.
There really weren’t that many flaws found by the system, it was just enough for him to break it.
Then he released all of the glowing words floating in the air in the direction of the array.
