Chapter 1062: Chapter 162: The Dark Restraint within Ms. Meng
However, Divine Peak was enveloped by an extremely strong power of the Grand Array.
To enter Divine Peak, everyone had to break this Grand Array first.
Godslayer King stepped forward, his Divine Sword appeared in his hand, and he suddenly swung it. Instantly, a Sword Qi ten thousand feet long like a rainbow crossed through the void and struck the Divine Peak’s Grand Array.
A thunderous, massive sound erupted.
The Grand Array’s light on Divine Peak trembled and numerous Divine Dragon Sword Qis appeared, actually blocking the Sword Qi of the Godslayer King.
Everyone was shocked.
Was the Godslayer King, a Half-Step Dominator, really unable to break the Grand Array that enveloped this Divine Peak?
"What exactly is this Grand Array? It’s so strong!" exclaimed Red-Haired Old Demon.
They could only discern that the Grand Array enveloping Divine Peak was some Desolate Sword Array, but they couldn’t identify exactly which one it was.
Yang Xiaotian had been researching Formations for years and hadn’t stopped his study of them, yet even he couldn’t identify what this Grand Array was. He couldn’t help but ask Master Ding.
"This is the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array!" said Master Ding, "Inherited from the Dao Domain, it must have been arranged by a master from the Dao Domain."
Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array! Arranged by a master from the Dao Domain!
Yang Xiaotian was startled.
Why would a master from the Dao Domain arrange such a Desolate Sword Array on Divine Peak of Tortoise Island?
Could it be that there were other secrets to this Divine Peak?
"Indeed, this Divine Peak holds other secrets, yet they are not something you can unravel now," Master Ding said.
"Can Godslayer King and the others do it?" Yang Xiaotian asked.
"No," Master Ding shook his head, "You need to cultivate your Primordial Dragon Divine Body to the Twenty-One Layers to unlock the secrets of this Divine Peak."
Primordial Dragon Divine Body Twenty-One Layers?
Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but feel helpless.
His Primordial Dragon Divine Body was currently only at the Fourfold.
"Let me try," said Meng Bingxue, seeing that Godslayer King couldn’t break the Grand Array. She then activated her internal power, and suddenly, the power of ice and snow surged from her entire body with a simple wave of her hand, and snowflakes fell all over the sky.
The Divine Peak’s Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array burst with layers of Divine Dragon Sword Qi trying to block the falling snow, but soon, the snow clung to these Divine Dragon Sword Qis and then covered them layer by layer.
Before, whether it was Invincible Zhantian or Burying God Master’s power, once it was touched by Meng Bingxue’s ice and snow, it would immediately freeze and then shatter into pieces.
But now, after the Sword Qi of the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array was covered by the ice and snow, it was still able to flow, which surprised everyone.
All along the way, Meng Bingxue had been invincible, no one could stand in her way, and now, the Sword Qi of the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Sword Array could actually withstand her chilling power?
"Master Ding, aside from breaking this Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array, is there another way to enter the Divine Peak?" Yang Xiaotian asked.
"There is another method, but it requires the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Talisman," Master Ding said, "If you possess the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Talisman, you can also enter."
"However, this item is definitely rare in the Chaos Domain."
"With your current strength, you are unable to condense the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Talisman; you need to at least break through to the Domination Realm."
Again, the Domination Realm!
At this moment, Meng Bingxue intensified her ice and snow power.
As she boosted her strength, the Desolate Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array finally began to slowly stop.
The Sword Qi of the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array began to freeze and then gradually shatter.
"Just as the Sword Qi of the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array began to fracture, suddenly, a surge of Dark Demon Qi erupted from within Meng Bingxue."
Meng Bingxue involuntarily let out a muffled groan, her complexion turning significantly paler.
Everyone was shocked.
"Ms. Meng, how are you?" Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but step forward and ask with concern.
"I’m fine." Meng Bingxue shook her hand and then channeled her power to suppress the formidable Dark Demon Qi, and said to Yang Xiaotian, "In ancient times, someone implanted this Dark Restraint within me."
"Over the years, I’ve always been suppressing the prohibitive power of this Dark Restraint in my body."
"Although I have been suppressing it, I simply can’t eliminate this Dark Restraint’s power.
"To keep this Dark Restraint’s power at bay, my strength has been greatly limited."
If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have allowed the Burying God Master and Invincible Zhantian to escape during the battle at Severing Heaven Peak years ago.
"I just intensified my power to decipher the Sword Array, which is why I was struck back by the Dark Restraint’s power."
Hearing Meng Bingxue’s explanation, Yang Xiaotian felt a heaviness in his heart and involuntarily asked, "Is there any way to remove this Dark Restraint from within you?"
Meng Bingxue shook her head: "Not at the moment. I previously went to the Demon Ancestor Continent to ask the Desolate Demon Ancestor for a solution, but even the Desolate Demon Ancestor couldn’t rid me of this Dark Restraint."
"Perhaps, his master, the Chaos Demon Lord, might have a glimmer of hope."
Even the Chaos Demon Lord only having a glimmer of hope indicated the strength of the Dark Restraint inside Meng Bingxue.
Yang Xiaotian felt a heavy weight in his heart.
"However, you needn’t worry, my lord." Meng Bingxue smiled sweetly, "As long as I don’t exert more strength than I just did, I won’t suffer the backlash of this Dark Restraint."
Is that really the case?
However, Yang Xiaotian faintly felt that the Dark Restraint within Meng Bingxue wasn’t as simple as she described, and she was just saying this to comfort him.
Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but ask Master Ding.
"This Dark Restraint within her was definitely planted by a dark expert from the Dao Domain; who exactly it was, I do not know," Master Ding shook his head and said: "However, she should still refrain from fighting, ordinary combat is fine, but if she battles with those above the dominator level, the backlash from this Dark Restraint will become stronger and stronger."
Yang Xiaotian’s heart clenched: "Then is there any way to help Ms. Meng remove this Dark Restraint?"
"Not at the moment," said Master Ding, "If you can break through to the Domination Realm, you can use the power of your King of Chaos Light Divine Nature to help her."
"Before that, it’s not possible!"
Yang Xiaotian’s mood was gloomy. "What will happen if this Dark Restraint’s backlash within her becomes stronger and stronger?"
"She will die!" Master Ding uttered solemnly.
Death!
Yang Xiaotian was greatly shaken.
At that moment, the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Sword Array finally shattered enough to create a large gap.
Yang Xiaotian and others entered the Divine Peak through the gap.
Despite entering the Divine Peak, Yang Xiaotian couldn’t feel any joy, remaining melancholic.
Seeing this, Meng Bingxue guessed what was on Yang Xiaotian’s mind and said, "My lord, you needn’t worry for me. If it weren’t for you, I would still be in slumber in the Sun Moon Realm, my life is yours."
Yang Xiaotian looked at Meng Bingxue, his tone serious, "Ms. Meng, promise me that you won’t use power beyond the dominator level in the future, can you?"
Meng Bingxue looked at Yang Xiaotian and sweetly smiled, "Alright, I’ll listen to you, my lord."
Yang Xiaotian nodded, then continued with the others deeper into the Divine Peak.
