Chapter 710 Ancient Crystal Stone

Yun Yan said, "Alright, then I'll make your stealing of wine public!"

"..." Ming Zhi Tian said, "Aren't you afraid of exposing yourself too?"

Yun Yan shrugged, looking unconcerned, "What does it matter? At least I'll have a companion on the road to the underworld, I'm content."

Ming Zhi Tian's forehead creased, "I'm truly impressed with you, so you had this planned all along, you scoundrel."

Yun Yan rolled his eyes at him, "Hey Ming Zhi Tian, you drank just as much wine, making it sound like I was the only one."

Ming Zhi Tian said irritably, "Alright, you win, I'll go!"

Yun Yan laughed heartily, slinging an arm around him, "That's what a good brother does. Come on, let me treat you to the best."

Six Realms, Eight Desolations...

Stone Ink Celestial Domain—

Ming Zhi Tian and Yun Yan changed into the attire of God Catchers, cloaked in black, and moved through the celestial domain in the dead of night.

Ming Zhi Tian asked, "Why the disguise as God Catchers?"

Yun Yan's lips curved slightly, "Are you an idiot? Better safe than sorry. If we're caught stealing, we can pin it on the God Catchers and wash our hands of it completely! They won't know what hit them. After all, the God Catchers are always active everywhere, so it's perfectly normal if they were the ones who did it."

Ming Zhi Tian nodded in understanding, "You're so clever."

Yun Yan said, "It's you who's dumb, okay?"

Ming Zhi Tian shrugged, "Yes, yes, yes..."

According to the intelligence Yun Yan obtained, they bypassed heavy guards by masking their auras and arrived at a tall tower. Entering the magical array tower, Yun Yan and Ming Zhi Tian attached talismans beforehand to blend into the array and reached the top floor.

They saw a massive pink boulder emitting a purple glow, suspended above a pool of spiritual energy. It was a very large crystal.

"It's an ancient crystal!" Yun Yan's eyes widened.

Ming Zhi Tian asked, "What is an ancient crystal?"

Yun Yan explained, "Ancient crystals are crystals that existed in ancient times. The energy contained within them is a thousand times that of ordinary crystals!"

"Such immense energy?" Ming Zhi Tian was stunned, "A... a thousand times?"

Yun Yan said, "That's right. Wait, someone's coming, hide." kuAiδugg

The two clung to the corners of the stone beams, stretching out their bodies, perfectly positioned so they couldn't be seen from below.

A patrol squad arrived. They patrolled the area every five minutes, indicating an extremely strict guard.

After a while, they detected no anomalies and left.

Yun Yan and Ming Zhi Tian leaped down. Looking at the massive ancient crystal, Yun Yan was about to touch it.

Ming Zhi Tian stopped him, "Don't touch it!"

Yun Yan froze. Ming Zhi Tian had already observed with his Emperor of Immortals' Eye, "It's reinforced with a high-level array. Once it senses something from the outside, it will trigger a powerful array fluctuation, creating an alarm."

Yun Yan broke out in a cold sweat, "Thank goodness you warned me. How did you see that?"

Ming Zhi Tian paused slightly and casually lied, "I studied arrays before, so I can tell."

Yun Yan nodded. Ming Zhi Tian, however, shook his head. Based on the memories provided by the Emperor of Immortals' Eye, he might have been able to crack low-level arrays with it, but this was an array above the high-level ones.

Yun Yan then took out a box-like mechanical contraption. Ming Zhi Tian looked confused, "What is this?"

Yun Yan smiled slightly, "This is a semi-finished divine artifact specifically for breaking high-level arrays. My master gave it to me as an adult gift. It's a pity you didn't become his disciple."

Ming Zhi Tian watched him operate quietly. Yun Yan attached it to the array and pressed the button, "I heard this is the joint masterpiece of the legendary God of Mechanisms, Elder Chang Jiang, and the Great Array Master, Ou Yue Qi. I wonder how effective it will be. If it fails, we'll have to be ready to escape at any moment."
