Chapter 856: Chapter 67: The Ten Directions Big Array, Meeting Old Friends Again_2

Chen Tianwen spoke with confidence, exuding a certain boldness that made one believe him.

Xiao Jie, however, felt a little unsettled inside, "But Brother Tianwen, didn’t you previously say that your divination ability can only partially predict the future?"

"That’s right, but I can combine known intelligence from reality with extrapolation and judgment, and then use my Divination Skill. Calculating what will happen in the future is not that difficult. Come, Xiao Jie, let’s go in for a closer look."

He then started walking downhill directly, and Xiao Jie quickly followed, becoming curious about the inside of this Big Array.

On the way, players were everywhere teaming up to combat monsters, locked in difficult battles with groups of wild creatures.

"There are so many people!" Xiao Jie commented with some amazement.

"The intelligence from the previous three wars has already spread widely. Everyone knows that participating in this type of activity yields experience gains and Equipment drops. Plus, with the NPC military in front, there’s no real danger. As long as morale collapses, it’s possible to viciously attack like a drowned rat and rack up free damage.

In those previous wars, quite a few player teams were granted the loot permissions on Boss-level Bosses, scoring a rich harvest.

This time’s final battle might see players from the entire game flocking here.

These wild Demon Soldiers and New Empire Army are just right for practice to familiarize with enemy abilities, attracting plenty of people here naturally."

The two of them passed through the vast Leveling area and quickly came to the vicinity of the unfinished Big Array.

Beyond this point, things wouldn’t be so easy; the area around the Big Array was filled with guards, these New Empire Army soldiers were all with red names, and approaching them would provoke attacks.

Moreover, hatred links, any attack would summon other units, making it unrealistic to clear the way through with brute force.

Wentian Wuji, however, was well prepared.

He locked onto a New Empire Army long spear soldier and connected several Magic Seals.

Shouting an incantation aloud—"Transform!"

With a poof and a flash of white smoke around him, he transformed into an identical appearance of that long spear soldier.

Xiao Jie was somewhat surprised, "Wow, that’s quite a trick, what Skill is that?"

"Just ’Shifting Form’."

This Shifting Form is rather fitting.

Phantom Spirit Pearl—Transform!

Xiao Jie activated an Equipment Skill, causing the same white mist to flash around him and transform into the appearance of a New Empire Army soldier.

The two looked at each other, exchanging a subtle nod—it seems this teammate is quite reliable.

Then they walked into the Big Array together.

The outer circle of this Big Array was already mostly complete, with many soldiers stationed and some craftsmen conducting the finishing touches.

Inside the construction site, Xiao Jie gained a more direct understanding of this Big Array, which indeed seemed like a maze looping repeatedly, yet forming its own order, winding around until one felt dizzy.

Chen Tianwen observed as he explained to Xiao Jie.

"Hmm, I’m starting to make some sense of it, this isn’t just one Big Array, but a group of multiple formations combined together.

One, two, three... if I’m not mistaken, there should be up to ten Big Arrays.

The arrays are interconnected, quite intriguing and mystifying, interesting, very interesting."

Although his words sounded relaxed, his tone gradually turned heavy.

"Say, you claimed you could predict what’s about to happen in the future? Is that for real?"

Chen Tianwen calmly replied, "It’s not that difficult—having studied the Human Dao Chapter, you should understand—human behavior logic is determined by human nature itself.

Once one deciphers human nature, predicting the actions of others is not hard.

Wang Xie’s goal was never to aid Long Wushang in succeeding; his goal is definitely the pursuit of personal power and truth, with Long Wushang merely serving as a pawn."

"How do you know?"

"Don’t forget, I’ve also learned the Human Dao Chapter, having seen those Foolish Taoist, Mad Taoist, and Evil Taoist. Based on my observations, these avatars have diverse personalities but primarily fall into two types: one type desires to complete the mission assigned by the main body, considering their existence to serve this purpose.

The other type, however, deeply loathes their avatar identity, viewing the main body as the greatest enemy, attempting by various means to find self-awareness and escape the control of the main body."

Xiao Jie nodded slightly; indeed, that was accurate.

The first type is more common, resembling ordinary NPCs, whereas the second type feels more eerie, like an intelligent Awakening.

They often even give themselves a name, like that ’Feng Buqi’ he had met before.

"So you believe Wang Xie is of the latter type?"

"Exactly, Wang Xie definitely hates the main body intensely, wants to acquire self-awareness, and only such avatars would resort to any means to grow stronger, eventually evolving into the Level 58 Chaotic Demon Dao.

With Wang Xie’s understanding, it should be easy to deduce that his main body is surely an Immortal, and to break free from the main body’s control, his only chance is—Cheng Xian."

Thus, matters like contending for world domination bear no significance to him; the sole purpose of assisting Long Wushang was to ensure his own Cheng Xian."

Xiao Jie nodded in agreement; Chen Tianwen’s deduction made sense indeed.

"Then how does he plan to Cheng Xian?"

"That’s not the important question—the thing is Wang Xie isn’t the only one seeking Cheng Xian. Wang Xie’s aim is Cheng Xian, while Divine Calculation Sky Demon’s goal is to pursue Ascension Items—this Ascension Item could either be with Long Wushang or Wang Xie, as Divine Calculation Sky Demon surely deems.

And tackling a World Boss is never easy; since I’ve calculated this, Divine Calculation Sky Demon certainly can too, hence he’ll opt to ally with one and counteract the other. Although Long Wushang and Wang Xie appear cooperative on the surface, they actually manipulate each other.

If Divine Calculation Sky Demon intends to intervene, he would either join with Long Wushang and plot against Wang Xie, or ally with Wang Xie and scheme against Long Wushang.

This is the signature strategy favored by the Pantheon."

As they spoke, the two had arrived at the center of this Big Array, where the vigilance was quite stringent.

The Formation system being set up was also particularly intricate, surrounded by towering stone walls, resembling a newly founded fortress. freёnovelkiss.com

These stone walls aren’t seamlessly linked, they segment, leaving numerous gaps for entry and exit.

On those stone walls, there were many peculiar runes inscribed.

Initially, Xiao Jie paid no attention, dismissing the incomprehensible runes and talismans within the formations. But those stone wall runes caught his eyes—nothing more—it seemed familiar.

Xiao Jie carefully examined the runes on the surrounding walls, vaguely sensing he had seen them somewhere before.

Chen Tianwen similarly was observing the Big Array seriously—surprisingly, he couldn’t discern the purpose of this Array.

Just then, a group of people came out from the city; the pair quickly stood to the side, posing as sentinels.

Heard coldly from the group, "You lot, hasten the transport, these items must be relocated inside without a hitch for this Immortal Ascension Array."

Xiao Jie found the voice familiar, adjusted his perspective to peek behind, and froze—the one issuing commands was an acquaintance.

Feng Buqi (demon): Level 42. Life Value 3200.

It’s him! His level-up is quite rapid, the last meeting when this guy was just Level 28, not to mention his Profession changed too—demon... looks like he joined Wang Xie.

Reflecting on it, Xiao Jie’s mind suddenly sparked; he realized why those stone wall runes looked familiar.

It was precisely the same runes on the Demon Talisman he had picked up in Newbie Village!
