FVN Chapter 594 Grade 3 trash? What about Grade 4? What about Grade 5!
Chapter 594 Grade 3 trash? What about Grade 4? What about Grade 5!
It took no more than five breaths.
Chen Fan took a step forward and stood on the array platform once again.
The barrier of the third-grade illusion array behind him let out a mournful cry of being unable to bear the weight, and then shattered with a crash, turning into countless blue light spots that scattered across the sky.
His expression remained unchanged, as if he had only done a trivial matter, and he turned and walked towards the fourth-grade array platform next to him.
On the judging panel, Ouyang Ye slightly opened his half-closed eyes.
Breaking a third-grade illusion array in five breaths is quite a speed even among fourth-grade array masters.
However, a third-grade formation is only the beginning, and this alone is not enough to move him.
He closed his eyes again and continued to feign sleep.
Chen Fan stepped onto the fourth-rank array platform.
This time, what appeared before them was a blazing killing array.
The formation was engulfed in raging flames, with crimson flames surging in from all directions, the intense heat distorting and warping the air itself.
Within the flames, there were hidden array patterns flowing, each pattern forming the skeleton of a fire dragon. Dozens of fire dragons coiled and roared within the array, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced towards Chen Fan.
Beneath his feet was churning lava, from which giant, fiery hands would occasionally emerge, attempting to drag him into its depths.
A fourth-grade Blazing Flame Killing Array is enough to trap and kill a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
Chen Fan stood in the center of the raging flames, his expression remaining calm.
With the enhancement of the Fixed Word Technique, his divine sense penetrated through layers of flames and accurately captured the core of the formation!
It was a flame array core hidden inside the belly of the largest fire dragon. The array core was made of crimson flame crystal, and its surface was engraved with intricate flame runes. It continuously drew power from the flames within the array to maintain its operation.
The other eight array masters are also struggling to break the array in their respective fourth-grade array platforms.
Some of them used array flags to set up counter-array formations, some used array plates to forcibly interfere with the flow of array power, and some used brute force to forcefully shake the array core. Each of them displayed their unique abilities and were drenched in sweat.
Chen Fan didn't even use the battle flags.
He simply extended a finger, and a grayish-white light shone from the fingertip.
The light was not dazzling, but it had a strange penetrating power.
With a flick of his finger, a gray-white light transformed into an extremely fine thread that pierced through layers of flames, precisely striking the belly of the largest fire dragon and hitting the core rune of the flame array.
The core of the flame array trembled violently, the runes on its surface shattered inch by inch, and the array power poured out like a flood bursting its banks.
Dozens of fire dragons let out a mournful cry at the same time. Their massive bodies froze in the air for a moment before shattering into countless sparks.
Five breaths later.
When Chen Fan stepped out of the fourth-grade array platform, the middle-aged demonic cultivator from the Boundless Sea, who was the fastest among the other eight array masters, had just found the location of the array core and had not yet had time to break it.
Hearing the sound of the array shattering behind him, the demonic cultivator turned around abruptly and saw Chen Fan walking down from the fourth-grade array platform with a blank expression. His pupils shrank, and the array flag in his hand almost flew out of his grasp.
"You..." He opened his mouth several times, but didn't know what to say.
Breaking through a fourth-grade Fiery Killing Array in five breaths—this speed far exceeds the level expected of a eunuch who was eliminated from alchemy training.
An ominous premonition rose in his heart, but he immediately suppressed it!
In his view, it was absolutely impossible; this person could not possibly be a true master of array formations, he must have just gotten lucky.
Chen Fan neither looked at him nor stopped.
He walked straight to the fifth platform.
The barrier floating on the array platform was a deep cyan color, and the runes on the barrier flowed so fast that they were difficult to see with the naked eye. The array power it emitted was more than twice as strong as that of a fourth-grade array platform.
The fifth-grade formation platform. Of the nine candidates present, none have dared to step onto it!
The difference between a fifth-grade formation and a fourth-grade formation is like the chasm between a Nascent Soul cultivator and a Deity Transformation cultivator. Crossing it opens up a whole new world, while failing to do so could lead to death and the annihilation of one's cultivation.
"He's going to enter the fifth-grade array platform?" the green-robed array master exclaimed, forgetting to control the array flag in his hand and almost being backfired by the fourth-grade array.
The old woman from the desert grassland also broke through the fourth-grade formation and came out. When she saw Chen Fan walking straight towards the fifth-grade formation platform, an incredulous look appeared on her wrinkled face for the first time.
She has lived for over a thousand years and is one of the top array masters in the desert grasslands. She came to Zhao Kingdom for the selection with the aim of winning a spot with her mastery of fourth-grade peak array techniques.
But she never expected that this eunuch, whom everyone looked down upon, would dare to challenge a fifth-grade formation.
The middle-aged demonic cultivator in the Boundless Sea had an unpredictable expression on his face.
He was just mocking Chen Fan for having to choose a third-grade formation, but now that Chen Fan has broken the fourth-grade Blazing Flame Killing Formation in five breaths, he wants to challenge a fifth-grade one!
This mastery of array formations far exceeded his comprehension.
On the judging panel, Ouyang Ye's eyes were wide open.
A hint of surprise flashed in his bright old eyes, and he leaned forward slightly, his gaze towards Chen Fan now showing genuine interest.
Breaking through to the third rank in five breaths, breaking through to the fourth rank in five breaths—this speed is unmatched even by a few formation masters in the Hall of Offerings.
And this person actually dared to challenge a fifth-rank official!
It's important to understand that the difference between a fifth-grade formation and a fourth-grade formation cannot be bridged by luck alone.
Chen Fan stood before the fifth-grade array platform, took a deep breath, and stepped into the barrier.
The scene before them did not suddenly transform into some kind of treacherous natural environment like the previous two formations.
On the contrary, the interior of the fifth-grade formation was unexpectedly spacious!
Here lies an endless gray void, where thousands upon thousands of array patterns float, each one moving like a living snake, intertwining to form an extremely complex three-dimensional array.
At the center of the formation floats a fist-sized, dark golden core. Each time the core vibrates, the entire formation undergoes a subtle change.
Fifth-grade Void Illusion Killing Array.
The power of this formation lies not in elemental attacks such as fire and frost, but in the formation itself!
Upon closer inspection, those wandering array patterns could combine at any time to form illusionary attacks of any shape—it could be thousands of troops, ancient ferocious beasts, or the manifestation of your most feared memories.
The changes in the formation were entirely driven randomly by the dark gold array core, with no fixed pattern to follow.
The only way to break this formation is to find the pattern of the core's movement in the gaps between formation changes, use the formation flags to fix all the wandering formation patterns, and then use divine sense to forcibly erase the core runes on the core.
This requires an extremely powerful spiritual sense and profound mastery of array formations.
If one is not careful, the formation will backfire and one's soul will be injured.
Chen Fan stood in the center of the void, his divine sense extending to its limit under the blessing of the Fixed Word Technique.
The wandering array patterns gradually slowed down in his perception, and he clearly captured the changes in the array formation caused by each pulsation of the array core.
He rapidly deduced the evolutionary patterns of the formation within his sea of consciousness!
Each time the array core vibrates, the array patterns will be reorganized. The reorganized array will differ from the previous one in three ways, and these three differences are the pattern of the array core's vibration.
He slowly raised his ten fingers, and one of the flags floating behind him lit up.
In the brief moment between the pulses of the array core, his ten fingers fell simultaneously, and the nine array flags shot out like nine meteors, precisely inserting themselves into the nine most critical nodes of the array.
The nine array flags simultaneously erupted with dazzling gray-white light, the light intertwining to form a large net that froze all the wandering array patterns within the formation.
