The desolate mountain had disappeared, and what replaced it was an endless abyss. The darkness was boundless.

The expressions of Liu Feng and the other Flying Sword Sect disciples greatly changed. Indeed, it was as Qi Tianyu had said, this place was covered in an illusory magic array.

His fellow disciples from before had fallen into the abyss, and he was afraid that they would have been smashed into pieces long ago. Thinking of this, everyone could not help but shiver.

"Hu!" Qi Tianyu slowly opened his eyes as beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.

Although he knew how to break it, with his current mastery of the formation, it was still a bit difficult.

"Brother Qi! Haha, Brother Qi is indeed a heaven warping genius, his talent in array formations is truly amazing! "

Liu Feng smiled as he walked over, he could not hide the surprise in his eyes.

Although the young man in front of him had average cultivation, his talent in the Dao of formations was truly terrifying. Even in a place like Capital City, it was still incomparably dazzling.

"Brother Liu, you praise me too much. You should believe me now, right?" Qi Tianyu said lightly.

"I believe you!" It's really amazing, those fierce beasts just now were so real, even their blood and corpses were so real. "

Liu Feng was amazed.

"Those ferocious beasts were created by an illusory magic array. As long as you protect your own heart, you can do it." There's no need to fight, those beasts can't even hurt us. "

Qi Tianyu glanced at the Flying Sword Sect disciples and laughed.

Those Flying Sword Sect disciples immediately had awkward expressions, and felt their faces burning.

Earlier, they were still ridiculing Qi Tianyu for his nonsense, and were coldly spectating from the side as he was killed by the Profound-rank Vicious Beast.

But in the blink of an eye, Qi Tianyu had used reality to give them a resounding slap on the face, telling them that this truth might not even be true.

That aggressive Profound-rank Vicious Beast was nothing but an illusion formation. As long as he protected his heart and ignored it, he was nothing more than a paper tiger.

Especially Lin Qing, this genius of Flying Sword Sect, she relied on her talent and strength to slash four waves of fierce beasts consecutively.

Even a vicious beast with the first level of Profound-rank had been killed by her.

However, in the end, these berserk beasts were all just a facade. Her so called proud battle achievement, at this moment, was actually a mockery.

On the other hand, Qi Tianyu had not even moved a finger, so the fierce beast at the second level of Profound-rank was like paper in front of him.

"How is this possible? How could a kid from a small country see through such a real illusion array? Why! "

"Could it be that it's really as Senior Brother Liu said, that he's really a Fourth Grade Array Master?!"

Lin Qing clenched her fist tightly, her fingers had gone white, she felt a burning sensation on her face, and the gaze she used to stare at Qi Tianyu was filled with hatred and unwillingness.

The sect disciples who were used to being high and mighty viewed the martial practitioners of the various countries below as trash.

Now that he suddenly saw the trash in her eyes suddenly becoming a Formation Master whose status was even higher than hers, Lin Qing's heart felt extremely unbalanced, and was momentarily unable to accept it.

Qi Tianyu naturally felt Lin Qing's intense hostility, but he did not mind and continued to explain: "In the depths of the Illusory Formation, if one fights with the illusions and fierce beasts, one's body will become trapped even deeper, and will be unable to extricate oneself. At that time, the beasts that materialize will become stronger and stronger, and there will even be beasts at the Earth-rank level. Just the aura alone is enough to intimidate us! "

"Earth-rank, Heaven-rank!" Even a direct disciple like Liu Feng couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air.

If a vicious beast of that level appeared, then even he would be like an ant, scared out of his wits.

"Since these berserk beasts do not harm us, even if we are intimidated by its aura, what use is it?"

However, there were still people who raised questions.

That's right, even if it was just illusions of Earth-rank, or even if it was some Heaven-rank of vicious beasts, just their imposing manner alone was enough to intimidate them, so what if it couldn't hurt them?

"I don't know if Brother Liu noticed, but as soon as these beasts appeared, they jumped behind us and attacked us from behind." And the one behind us is this bottomless abyss. If you ask, which one of you is able to do it, facing the imposing aura of a Earth-rank existence, and not retreating? Once I take a step back, I will fall into this bottomless abyss. The result wouldn't need me to say anymore, right? "

Qi Tianyu said lightly.

"Hiss!"

After hearing Qi Tianyu's explanation and looking back at the bottomless abyss that was just inches away from them, everyone couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air.

If he fell into this bottomless abyss, the result would be obvious. He would be smashed into smithereens.

Unless one reached Heaven-rank, then they could fly in the sky or fly in the earth.

"How do we cross this bottomless abyss?" Or could it be that the primordial Demon Clan's treasure is hidden in this abyss? "

Liu Feng's gaze looked at the boundless abyss as his brows deeply furrowed.

"We can't cross this deep abyss, and we can't go down either. Are we going to have a round of fun?"

"Only Heaven-rank Expert can allow one to fly into the sky and escape into the ground. Could it be that the ancient Demon Clan's treasure can only be explored after reaching the Heaven-rank realm?"

Everyone could not help but reveal a look of disappointment. The illusion array at the first checkpoint had indeed been removed, but now they were faced with such a hopeless problem.

Qi Tianyu also frowned, but he quickly relaxed and pointed to the huge outline at the edge of the abyss: "Maybe we can go over there and take a look."

"Eh? "Let's go!"

Liu Feng's eyes lit up.

When the crowd approached, they discovered that it was a vast and massive altar that stood at the edge of a bottomless abyss. It was filled with the marks of time, and it gave off an ancient and desolate aura.

Around the altar, there were four lifelike black armored statues. The Battle Lance in their hands pointed towards the sky.

Qi Tianyu took a glance at the four black armored statues, his brows slightly raised, and warned: "Don't get close yet."

However, his warning was still a step too late. A few people had already rushed up, wanting to climb onto the altar to take a look.

"Clang!"

However, at this moment, the four statues suddenly moved. Raising their spears, they thrust them towards the four cultivators.

The energy fluctuations emitted by the black armored sculpture were extremely strong and had actually just reached the Profound-rank.

It was too sudden. No one expected the four black armored statues to move and possess such terrifying power.

Ah!" Two of the disciples were unable to dodge in time and were instantly pierced by the spear, dying a violent death.

"Quick, retreat!"

Liu Feng and Lin Qing were shocked as they hurriedly rushed forward.

The two of them had the fighting strength of Profound-rank and were the strongest amongst the group.

"Clang!" A black armoured swept across and swept Lin Qing flying on the spot.

Lin Qing had exhausted too much energy just now and the side effects of her secret technique had not yet passed.

Only Liu Feng was able to fight against the black armored statue head on and force the black armored statue to retreat.

Qi Tianyu's eyes flashed, and nodded slightly. This Liu Feng was truly worthy of being a direct disciple of the Flying Sword Sect, he was extremely talented.

Although he was only at the second level of the Profound-rank, the power he could unleash was extremely strong, comparable to a practitioner at the fifth or sixth level of the Profound-rank.

"Brother Liu, hurry up and retreat. These black armored statues won't move."

Qi Tianyu suddenly said.

After Liu Feng heard this, he did not think too much and quickly retreated. The other disciples were also saved.

Sure enough, after Liu Feng retreated a few steps, the four statues returned to their original positions and stood there motionlessly.

"Brother Qi, what's so special about these four statues?"

Liu Feng flashed to Qi Tianyu's side and asked.

Qi Tianyu's gaze wavered slightly, and said indifferently: "This should be a type of puppet, if my expectations are not wrong, this altar, is the way to enter Demon Clan. And if you want to ascend the stage, you must defeat these four puppets. "

"It's actually the legendary puppet!" Liu Feng was shocked. As an outstanding genius of Flying Sword Sect, his knowledge and experience were indeed vast.

Puppets were a type of mechanical technique that granted strength and even intelligence to dead creatures.

The rest of the people were also shocked, sighing about how terrifying the black armored statue was, it was actually comparable to Profound-rank Expert.

"Damn it! Then why didn't you say so earlier, and let me kill two of my junior brothers! "

Lin Qing suddenly screamed and denounced them.

The two disciples' corpses that had been pierced by the black armor earlier were still lying near the altar, fresh blood flowing out.

When the rest of the disciples heard him, they immediately glared at Qi Tianyu and felt that he was doing it on purpose.

"Humph!" Qi Tianyu scoffed. He really, really hated these sect disciples right now.

All of them had their noses pointed towards the sky, believing themselves to be very tall. He had also just noticed that these were the four puppets, so he had given them a reminder.

If it weren't for the primordial Demon Clan's treasure map, he wouldn't even have bothered to pay attention to these sect disciples.

However, those disciples were rushing too fast. Even if he reminded them, it would be too late.

"Enough! Brother Qi has already warned me earlier, if you have to blame them, you can only blame them for being shortsighted. "

Liu Feng glanced at Qi Tianyu, his face darkened as he berated.

"Senior apprentice-brother …" Lin Qing's face flushed red, she still wanted to argue, but was glared at by Liu Feng.

As a direct disciple, Liu Feng had quite a bit of authority within this group of disciples.

"My apologies Brother Qi, but it's all because of my group of junior brothers and sisters that weren't sensible and mistreated Brother Qi."

Then, Liu Feng smiled apologetically at Qi Tianyu.

"No worries!" "Brother Liu, as long as you don't point your spearhead at me, that's enough."

Qi Tianyu looked deeply at Liu Feng, and laughed faintly.

"How could that be? We still need to rely on the Brother Qi s! "

Liu Feng's eyes flashed as he complimented.

"Oh right, Brother Qi, do you have any way to break this puppet? Unless we have to cripple it with brute force? "

Liu Feng asked again.

These four puppets all had power comparable to Profound-rank. Although he could defeat them, the material of these puppets were simply too hard. Even he would need to expend a lot of effort to do so.

This was just the first time it was this difficult. If one truly entered the Demon Clan, then what kind of dangers would it be?

"Brute force breaking is also a method. However, this puppet should have a mechanism core. That is the puppet's weakness. As long as it is hit, it will lose its ability to move."

Qi Tianyu nodded his head lightly. Seeing Liu Feng's happy expression, he continued, "I can't see their weakness either. I need someone to fight with them, so I can use the energy fluctuations from the puppets to determine where their weakness is."

"Very well, leave it to me!"

Liu Feng nodded, and instructed the others not to act rashly, and rushed up by himself.

These four puppets all had power comparable to Profound-rank, so even if his junior brothers and sisters came up, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths.

"Hmph. You better not play any tricks or else I won't let you go."

Lin Qing's face was filled with worry, she then looked coldly at Qi Tianyu, locking onto him with his Qi.

It was clear that she had a deep prejudice against Qi Tianyu, and even suspected that the latter would intentionally harm her Senior Brother Liu.

And if something were to happen to Liu Feng, she would definitely attack Qi Tianyu without restraint.

"Conspiracy? I really don't need it. "

Qi Tianyu laughed in disdain. With his strength, there was no point in doing so.

Furthermore, with Great Emperor Zhu Tian's arrogant nature, he simply disdained scheming.
