His footsteps were extremely fast, and in just a moment, he had already stepped into the thousandth level.
However, the stone steps in front of him seemed endless, and he could not see far ahead.
The surrounding flowering trees also stretched endlessly.
Han Muye walked forward, as if he didn’t care how many steps there were.
He turned his gaze to the surrounding flowers and trees, looking at the stamens with a calm expression.
This journey lasted for six hours.
“Boom!”
After the 100,000th step, Han Muye took a step forward. A roar sounded as his feet landed on a piece of limestone.
The surrounding flowers and trees also disappeared, leaving only an empty hill, a small house made of bluestone, and an old man in a linen robe leaning on a wooden staff in front of the house.
“I’m very curious. If these stone steps continue endlessly, how long are you prepared to walk?”
The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Han Muye, asking softly.
For six hours, Han Muye did not stop.
The old man was very curious about this temperament.
“I’ll go as far as the stone steps are long.”
Han Muye looked at the old man and said loudly, “I’m here to see Senior Thousand Arrays, not to cross an array formation. The length of the stone steps has nothing to do with my purpose here.”
These words stunned the old man for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. “Sword Immortal Yunlan is really extraordinary.
“Only a Sword Dao expert should have such determination.”
Han Muye had come to see him, and the formation was just an obstacle. It was not like he would turn around and leave just because he was trapped in a formation.
Besides, Zhao Pingyu couldn’t possibly keep him trapped for too long with his formation skills.
“From the moment I stepped onto the stone steps, I walked a total of 100,000 steps. Every stone step I saw was different.
“I saw 320,000 flowers on the surrounding trees, and each flower bud had subtle differences.
“In fact, Senior’s formation concealed a mountain that was originally 10,000 feet high, making it appear only 100 feet tall.
“This technique that covers tens of thousands of feet is brilliant.”
This cover-up even fooled Han Muye’s gaze, and he only realized it after experiencing it himself.
For countless years, no one knew that there was a tall mountain outside Dongyuan City.
No one in the entire Wasteland had said anything about this.
It could be seen that Zhao Pingyu had deceived everyone with a grand array.
This level of Array Dao was truly unrivaled.
Han Muye’s words brought a smile to Zhao Pingyu’s face.
He was known as Thousand Arrays Zhao, but the work he was most proud of was the Dongyuan Mountain where he currently resided.
He used a grand formation to conceal and quietly moved mountains and rocks, turning this place into a 10,000-foot-high peak without anyone noticing.
“Sword Immortal Yunlan, good, good.”
Zhao Pingyu’s elderly demeanor disappeared as his gaze fell on Han Muye.
He stared at Han Muye and laughed. “You broke the array formations of Tu Rensi and Luo Yang in the Wasteland. I originally wanted to have a look at your formation skills as a fellow practitioner of formations. Now I see it, they deserved it.”
With a wave of his hand, a stone table made of bluestone appeared, along with several stone stools.
“Please.”
Zhao Pingyu walked to a stone stool and sat down. Then he picked up the spiritual light on the table and took a bite. “What kind of Great City Protection Formation does the Invincible City Lord want to build?”
Han Muye walked to the stone table and sat down, picking up a spiritual fruit without hesitation.
There was a light fragrance in his mouth, and traces of immortal spiritual energy poured in.
The fruit tasted good.
“The formation will block Golden Immortals,” Han Muye said.
Zhao Pingyu stopped biting the fruit in his hand.
“Golden Immortals. Invincible City Lord, do you know what you’re saying?
“Which city in the Wasteland can stop a Golden Immortal?”
He flung his sleeves and shook his head. “You’re forcing me.”
Han Muye’s expression remained unchanged as he looked around. “This place can stop Golden Immortals, right?”
These words made Zhao Pingyu’s expression change.
His expression changed as he stared at Han Muye. “So the Invincible City Lord is also a great array formation cultivator.”
Putting down the half-eaten fruit, he scattered a set of black and white chess pieces on the stone table in front of him.
“If the Invincible City Lord can use array formations to break my array formations, I can consider setting up an array formation that can block Golden Immortals for you.”
It was not that he could not set up an array formation, but he did not want to. He was unwilling.
As the chess pieces flew, they transformed the surrounding space into illusions.
At this moment, Han Muye suddenly raised his hand and placed his finger on a chess piece.
The entire illusory space instantly shattered.
He held the chess piece in his hand and looked up at Zhao Pingyu.
“There’s no formation in the world that can’t be broken.
“Only those who are invincible can be undefeated.”
Invincible and undefeated.
Zhao Pingyu’s expression was solemn.
Han Muye was right. No matter what array he set up, it would be broken in the end.
Just like how Han Muye was holding a chess piece.
No matter how Zhao Pingyu set up the formation, as long as that chess piece was held tightly, there would be a flaw in the formation.
However, Zhao Pingyu could not snatch the chess piece from Han Muye’s hand at all.
All of this came from strength.
Han Muye could firmly grasp the chess piece, and that was strength.
“I was shallow…” Zhao Pingyu shook his head with a complicated expression.
He was an array formation expert who had become a Heaven Immortal. No matter which faction he faced, he was a respected figure.
He knew that people feared him, but they didn’t truly respect him.
He didn’t possess the strength that could earn genuine respect from these powerhouses.
He was just an array formation cultivator.
“Sword Immortal Yunlan, what benefits can you give me if I help you set up an array formation?” Zhao Pingyu’s eyes flickered as he whispered.
“What do you want?” Han Muye looked at him.
Zhao Pingyu took a deep breath, stared at Han Muye, and whispered, “Sword Immortal, please do me a favor.”
“I want to explore a formation left behind by a senior, but its defense is too powerful for me to handle.”
