C200 Three Possibilities!(1)

Holding the Array Origin Bead, Woo Zhengyang's soul energy surged rapidly in all directions. With his soul energy's intensity, even experts at the Shape Gathering Stage would find it hard to match, and he quickly covered No Life Square. However, in the next moment, Woo Zhengyang's face turned pale. The area covered by the essence of death also harmed soul energy. If he hadn't sensed the danger in time, his soul would have been injured.

"Boom..." Just as Woo Zhengyang was about to study the essence of death, a loud noise erupted again from the city gate. This time, the impact was even more tremendous, as if the entire No Life City was about to collapse.

"Get over here..." Loong Zhiwu suddenly exclaimed. Woo Zhengyang, puzzled, glanced over in inquiry and suddenly felt the statue of the No Life Patriarch beneath him move. Looking down, he saw the statue's outer shell slowly cracking and peeling away!

Without hesitation, Woo Zhengyang executed the Dragon Countering Nine Steps from mid-air, rushing toward Loong Zhiwu's direction. By the time Woo Zhengyang and Loong Zhiwu stood together, the statue's shell had completely fallen away, revealing an elder in a gold-threaded silver robe before everyone.

It was the No Life Patriarch! Everyone recognized this figure as the owner of the estate, the No Life Patriarch.

Is the No Life Patriarch really still alive?

Everyone was shocked. This was a powerful figure from ancient times, capable of incredible feats. Woo Zhengyang was even more stunned. He had just been standing on the No Life Patriarch's head for quite some time...

"This seems like big trouble..." Loong Zhiwu glanced at Woo Zhengyang, looking rather frustrated.

"The Patriarch's final game was disrupted by you fools. You're asking for it!" the No Life Patriarch roared, flying straight toward the city gates.

As the No Life Patriarch departed, subtle changes occurred in No Life City, as if a shackle binding everyone had been released. Woo Zhengyang dispersed his Soul Energy and noticed that the city's aura of death had vanished. Other cultivators quickly realized this too and rushed toward the city gates.

"Should we go check it out? It might be the three elders from the Fallen Sun Sect. Maybe it won't be so troublesome," Loong Zhiwu said, curious about the battle over there.

Woo Zhengyang shook his head. "Even if the three elders from the Fallen Sun Sect are here, it's uncertain if they can stand against the No Life Patriarch. This place is too strange. We should focus on finding a way out first."

Loong Zhiwu didn't argue. Woo Zhengyang held the Array Origin Bead, continuing to study No Life City.

Without the hindrance of the mystery of death, Woo Zhengyang quickly found traces of the array's operation in No Life City. However, as the Array Master had mentioned, the level of this array was extremely high. Even with Woo Zhengyang's mastery, he could only glimpse a faint trace.

With no other options, Woo Zhengyang, along with Loong Zhiwu, Blade Man, and Hammer Man, wandered through the city, hoping to uncover some clues. When the four of them reached the small river, they finally noticed something unusual.

The river, once filled with blood and severed limbs, was now completely clean, with no trace of blood anywhere.

"Could it be that what we saw was just an illusion?" Blade Man wondered aloud.

"So many people died; it can't just be an illusion! I saw the body of someone I knew in that river!" Hammer Man shuddered at the memory.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the scheme of the No Life Patriarch. He designed this game, likely to collect the blood and bodies. From what I know, there was an ancient dark art that could bring the dead back to life!" Loong Zhiwu's thoughts aligned with Woo Zhengyang's suspicions. Although he wasn't familiar with the ancient dark art, he felt there was something eerie about the No Life Patriarch's game.

Moreover, the fact that he was inside the statue but used a game to incite people to kill each other was inherently abnormal.

"Given the current situation, it's highly likely that's the case, and it seems his plan has been disrupted, forcing him to act sooner than intended!"

"But if he's the one designing the game, why not just let everyone go on a killing spree? Could it really just be for fun?" Loong Zhiwu couldn't quite wrap his head around it.

"This game was probably designed by him from the start, and he simply implemented it later. He can control the pace of the game but can't directly change the rules. That's why, when the second round of killing wasn't over yet, an unexpected event pushed us straight into the third round, and the pace quickened significantly. Yet, even when I had him cornered, he couldn't kill me. He could only issue new commands, hoping to use others to do his bidding."

Thanks to the information from Bing'er and the others, Woo Zhengyang had a better understanding of the No Life Patriarch than anyone else, leading him to this conclusion.

However, what the real situation is, only the No Life Patriarch knows. Woo Zhengyang and his group didn't dwell on it and continued their exploration.

Woo Zhengyang sensed an unusual fluctuation of energy deep within No Life City. That place was likely the portal out of there.
