1572 Illusion Array (1/2)
”Your Highness, Qingfeng is too powerful. We must think of something,” said a woman in black as she appeared from behind Saladin.
This woman in black was very beautiful with an attractive face, white skin, a tall nose, and blue eyes like blue gems that glowed with stars.
In addition, this woman in black wasn't very old, at most twenty some years old, with a beautiful figure.
However, she was completely wrapped within this black robe like a witch, as her body released cold energy that was completely opposite from Saladin's light energy.
This woman in black was referred to as the Black Sword, the Great Executioner of the Pope's Pagoda, who controlled the dark side. She was a fierce sword Saladin used to suppress ferocious beasts and didn't usually appear. If Qingfeng hadn't reached the third floor, she wouldn't have showed up.
In the Tiger Continent, the Great Executioner represented death, an existence more horrific than vampires.
Saladin smiled lightly and said, ”The previous Pope disappeared because of Qingfeng, which is why I managed to acquire this position. I know of Qingfeng's power but don't worry. The fourth floor has an illusion array and is controlled by the three-tailed fox.”
The woman in black nodded when she heard Saladin.
They've already noticed Qingfeng's immense power and that he was well versed in talisman scripts. However, they believed that Qingfeng might not understand array knowledge, and that an illusion array could block him.
After Qingfeng killed the puppet beast on the third floor, he led Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake towards the fourth floor.
Not long after, they reached the fourth floor, but when they pushed open the door, Qingfeng's face changed.
The floor was filled with fog, reducing visibility by a lot. Qingfeng couldn't even see Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake before him.
He realized that the fog could also block off sounds, since Qingfeng failed to hear Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake as well.
Qingfeng had encountered things like this before, so he knew that there must be an array creating the white fog.
He channeled the spirit energy inside his brain to keep himself awake. Then, he raised his right foot and began walking forward.
Qingfeng walked very fast, traveling several hundred meters only after a short while. However, Qingfeng noticed that no matter which way he went, he always ended up in the same spot.
This was no ordinary white fog; it contained some Eight Trigrams laws. Unless they found the gate of birth, also known as the gate of life, there was no way of getting out.
As Qingfeng was just preparing to crack this white array, he heard a familiar voice ring out from behind him.
”Qingfeng, I miss you.” A crisp alluring voice sounded from behind Qingfeng.
Qingfeng seemed excited when he heard this voice, as he turned around and saw Ruyan Liu, just as he had imagined.
Ruyan was now wearing a black dress and was very beautiful. Her pretty face blossomed like a rose as her eyelashes fluttered with sentiments. She quietly walked towards Qingfeng with love in her eyes.
”Ruyan, are you okay? Where have you been?” Qingfeng asked Ruyan with excitement in his voice, clearly with unsettled emotions.
Qingfeng came here in search of monarch grade vitality stones to find Ruyan, but who knew that he would see her here. His heart was filled with excitement.
