I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 123:1 Only Know a Thing or Two About Arrays

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

From the King of Hell’s residence, Lu Yuan, Meng Ruyan and Zhuang Yangbing passed through a small door and arrived at a street outside.

This street was different from the previous one. It was very messy.

Not only was there a lot of trash on the street, but the surrounding houses were also dilapidated.

There were still traces of flames on some of the houses, and the air was filled with an indescribable smell of charcoal.

Although the streets they had passed through before this were strange, they looked ordinary compared to this street.

It appeared as though a great battle had just taken place here.

The three of them could see many figures wandering on the street.

Lu Yuan checked the figure closest to them through his system.

[Ghost Warrior – Asura Path]

[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage Level 3]

[Description: A soldier who died on the battlefield. Before he died, he retained a strong fighting spirit and fell into the Asura Path.]

If there was only one Ghost Warrior around, Lu Yuan, Meng Ruyan, or Zhuang Yangbing would not bat an eyelid.

However, there were at least a dozen of them on the street now.

If they were surrounded by these Ghost Warriors, it would be the same as being surrounded by dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Although Lu Yuan was confident that these small fry would not pose a threat to him, the current situation was not the time to reveal his strength.

After all, who knew what would happen next?

“Brother Li, Senior Sister Meng, what do you think?”

Hearing Lu Yuan’s question, Zhuang Yangbing fell silent for a moment before saying, “The Paper Man butler gave us an address on this street. If I’m not wrong, there should be a malicious ghost with a Ghost Pearl at this address.”

He continued, “There are only small fry on this street. Not only will it take time and effort to fight them, but once we alarm too many Ghost Warriors, even if our cultivation is not low, we will still encounter quite a bit of trouble. Why don’t we…”

Zhuang Yangbing looked at Lu Yuan, and the two of them said in tacit understanding, “Wait and see?”

Good heavens, they were indeed as steady as the other!

Hearing that Zhuang Yangbing had the same thoughts as him, Lu Yuan felt like he had found a confidant.

Their so-called wait and see was naturally to wait for the other cultivators who had also received paper slips to scout out the way ahead.

There were more than 20 cultivators who had arrived at the King of Heli’s residence.

Some of these people were still watching outside the official residence, while others had already received notes from the Paper Man butler and came out to look for the Ghost Pearl.

There were about five or six cultivators who had come to this street.

However, these people were clearly not fools. None of them were willing to be the first to stand out.

Even though they did not want to make a move, Lu Yuan had a way to force them to take action.

“Senior Sister Meng, Brother Li, stand beside me first,” Lu Yuan said to the two of them.

The two of them didn’t suspect him and came near him.

However, Meng Ruyan noticed that when Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing approached each other, they did not trust each other as much as they appeared to.

Lu Yuan was holding a sword pellet in his hand, while Zhuang Yangbing was holding an unknown pill.

It was obvious that the two of them did not have absolute trust in each other from the beginning. They had always been on guard against each other.

However, because of the huge external threat, the two of them could still maintain a basic trust. They wouldn’t attack each other now.

However, if there was a huge crisis, these two would obviously betray each other without any hesitation.

Thinking of this, Meng Ruyan subconsciously moved closer to Lu Yuan.

A two-on-one situation was formed. This was undoubtedly a warning to Zhuang Yangbing not to act rashly. Otherwise, he would face the threat of two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Zhuang Yangbing obviously knew this too, so he did not get too close to Lu Yuan and Meng Ruyan. He kept a distance of about one meter between them.

When the two of them came to his side, a geometric compass appeared in Lu Yuan’s hand.

This compass was a low-grade magic instrument that Lu Yuan had found in the treasure vault of the Devil Slayers Division.

Although it was not as useful as his Mountain River Painting, its strength lay in its mundane appearance.

It would not attract too much attention.

Zhuang Yangbing looked at the compass and asked curiously, “Brother Chen, so you’re an array master.”

“Brother Li, please watch carefully,” Lu Yuan said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, the compass in Lu Yuan’s hand began to spin rapidly.

An array instantly enveloped the three of them.

Then, under the gazes of the other cultivators in the distance, Lu Yuan and the other two disappeared into thin air.

This put the other cultivators, who wanted to wait for the others to make the first move, in a dilemma.

The disappearance of these three people was undoubtedly stressing them out.

Who knew when they would suddenly appear?

Considering that they had to escape from the Gates of Hell in seven days, some cultivators could not sit still anymore.

If they couldn’t find the exit within seven days, they would never be able to leave.

As for where the three of them went, the other cultivators couldn’t care less.

Before long, the cultivators who were still lingering around the King of Hell’s residence began to slowly approach the street.

Seeing that the others had started to move, Meng Ruyan asked curiously, “Junior Brother, how could you be so sure that these guys wouldn’t be able to sit still?”

Before Lu Yuan could reply, Zhuang Yangbing spoke.

“Friend, given the current circumstances, no one would dare to let a group of people with unknown backgrounds and whereabouts stay by their side. Staying near us might be even more dangerous than venturing into the street, because they can’t guarantee that we won’t attack them.”

Lu Yuan added, “Brother Li, what you said is exactly what I wanted to say. We cannot let our guard down.”

Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Zhuang Yangbing only smiled and did not say anything.

While they were talking, some of the cultivators in the distance had already encountered trouble.

The Ghost Warriors who were still wandering on the street began to attack the people who entered the street after sensing the blood qi of a living person like sharks smelling blood.

Not long after, the streets were in a mess, and there were scenes of ghost qi and spells interweaving everywhere.

Lu Yuan saw that the Ghost Warriors had begun to disperse due to the appearance of the cultivators. He also knew that they had waited long enough and could make a move now.

“Senior Sister, Brother Li, follow me.”

As he spoke, Lu Yuan walked down the street.

The direction he was heading in was the address on the paper he had exchanged from the Paper Man butler.

As the three of them walked down the street, Zhuang Yangbing was quickly shocked by Lu Yuan’s profound knowledge of arrays.

He originally thought that Lu Yuan’s array was just a simple camouflage array.

He initially believed that although it could block the perception of cultivators, it might not be able to fool these Ghost Warriors who were searching for the auras of living people.

However, Zhuang Yangbing soon realized that he was off the mark.

Lu Yuan’s array was actually able to shield them from even these Ghost Warriors.

At that moment, it was as if the three of them were walking in a zombie crowd.

They were surrounded by zombies, but were completely ignored.

Not long after, the three of them arrived in front of an inn.

This inn was the location written on Lu Yuan’s note.

Zhuang Yangbing sighed after the three of them arrived here so easily with the help of Lu Yuan’s array.

“Brother Chen, you’re really skilled. I’m afraid that even some of the cultivators of the Tianji Sect can’t compare to you in terms of arrays.”

Faced with Zhuang Yangbing’s praise, Lu Yuan smiled and said, “Brother Li, you flatter me. I only know a thing or two about arrays.”

Only a thing or two?

Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Zhuang Yangbing was at a loss for words.

If he claimed to only know a thing or two, then many of the Tianji Sect cultivators were beginners who didn’t even know what arrays were.

Humility was a good thing, but excessive humility made him pretentious!

After all, if an array master wanted to achieve Lu Yuan’s level of proficiency, the former would require meticulous calculation ability and the ability to analyze the surrounding environment in a very short period of time.

This was an extremely huge test for a cultivator’s divine soul and mental strength. Ordinary array masters could not pull off such a feat.

Zhuang Yangbing looked up at the inn in front of him.

The sign read Fortune Inn..
