Chapter 138 Flawed Arrays
The Feather Dragons’ territory in the ice array was very clean.
Because it was a place where they lived for a long time, the Feather Dragons used the abundant Water Spiritual Energy in the array to lay a thin layer of ice on the ground, inhibiting the growth of the Spirit Stones and creating an empty space.
However, if the growth of Spirit Stones was inhibited too much, it would make the Spirit Stones grow on the top of the array and would harm their safety even more easily. Hence, the Feather Dragons thought of a new method. They buried the corpses of their kind on both sides of the empty space, directly making them the growth area for the Spirit Stones.
With this arrangement, the space in the ice array was much cleaner. After it was cleaned up, the shape of the entire array could be seen at a glance.
In addition to the intersection of the two arrays, the original area of the ice array was close to the shape of a shuttle. Meanwhile, the secret chamber seemed to have put another more square area inside the original array, incompatible with the entire shape of the array.
However, compared to the fire array, the secret chamber seemed to be in a different location.
“On second thought, the height of where Goulong’s relic was embedded here is also different from that of the relic in the chamber of the fire array. It’s not completely symmetrical.”
Ye Chen fell into deep thought as he looked at the strange shape of the borders of the array.
“Mr. Ye, what’s with the shape of this array?” The leader of the Feather Dragons couldn’t help but ask Ye Chen.
“I’m not so sure either. There are no records of such an array outside. I wonder if there are any related records of relevant arrays in the foreign realm where you used to live?” Ye Chen spread his hands and asked.
Although he didn’t have any concrete evidence, he actually had a guess in his heart. However, he didn’t want to tell the others rashly. Instead, he let the leader of the Feather Dragons speak.
The leader of the Feather Dragons shook its head.
“If even you don’t know, how would I possibly know…? The arrays in the foreign realms have long been understood by you humans. Or it could be said that the arrays you use are all from different foreign realms. If you ask me, I probably don’t know as much as you do.” It answered.
“Is that so?” Ye Chen asked curiously, “Are array formation arts nowadays not developed by humans?”
“Of course not. The arrays in the foreign realms were developed by mutated beasts of various races. There are too few humans who innately have the attributes of Spiritual Energy. If they didn’t use the power of the mutated beasts to obtain the array formation arts in the foreign realms, how would they be able to develop one by themselves?” The leader of the Feather Dragons replied.
“I see.” Ye Chen nodded. “However, I don’t know much about arrays. Is there really no way to put a special spatial structure into an array?” Ye Chen wasn’t lying. His knowledge of arrays only came from the books and information he got from the Wasteland Remembrance and Fan City. The former was ancient and the latter wasn’t comprehensive enough. So, he still had to exchange information with the leader of the Feather Dragons. “How would it be so easy to set up an additional spatial structure in the array?” The leader of the Feather Dragons mocked. “As long as the center of the array isn’t destroyed or taken away, the only structure that can’t be destroyed in the array is its own borders! Anything that can be the center of the array has enough Spiritual Energy. After the array enlarges it, no matter what level of combat power you have, you won’t be able to get out. Otherwise, why would we keep trying to take out the center of the array?”
“What about the space that you expanded with the Art of Goulong? What will happen if it’s destroyed?” Ye Chen asked.

“This is a space created by us using Spiritual Energy. Nothing will happen if it is destroyed. It will just cause the Spiritual Energy to leak out and then the corresponding space will disappear.” The leader of the Feather Dragons replied, “The additional space created is the same as things placed in the array. It can be destroyed. As far as I know, there has never been an exception.”
“If that’s the case, things will be easier.” Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief. “I think I kind of understand what’s going on, but I have one more question.” Upon hearing this, the three Divine Beasts looked at Ye Chen together as if they had seen a ghost.
“Don’t look at me like that. It’s uncomfortable.” Ye Chen shuddered.

“Master, don’t keep us in suspense. Quickly tell us what’s going on in this secret room!” The Immortal Phoenix was impatient and it was the first one to urge him.
“You’re the one who’s anxious. Learn to think about it by yourself quickly.” After Ye Chen ridiculed the Immortal Phoenix, he said seriously, “Let me tell you the question first. Look, this is the ice array among the ice array and fire array. And if we pass through the cave not far behind, we will be able to enter the fire array nearby, right?” “Of course, but what has this got to do with the structure of the borders of this secret chamber?” The leader of the Feather Dragons replied in confusion.
“That’s the key. Why are we able to enter and leave the ice array and the fire array freely when they are clearly two different arrays? Shouldn’t they have borders?” Ye Chen asked.
“I’m guessing that it’s probably because the two attributes of the Spiritual Energy in the ice array and the fire array are opposite.” The leader of the Feather Dragons replied, “The arrays were set up according to the attributes of the Ice Fire Beetle’s Spiritual Pond and there’s an area where the two arrays overlap. When the power of the two arrays is similar, the border in the middle will be removed.”
“I see…” Ye Chen recalled the entrance where the arrays were overlapped. The top and bottom were designed to look like the door at the entrance. It was obviously set to be the door to the arrays.
This was a strange array structure. After entering the array from the entrance of the fifth level of the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm, Ye Chen and the Divine Beasts fell from the top entrance. However, if they opened the door again, they would have to stand on the lower part to return to the ground. This structure more or less appeared to have some spatial distortions.
However, this exposed a problem.
“If it’s really as you said, the intersection of these two arrays should be the part where the borders of the array fail. There are no borders.” Ye Chen said, “But as far as I know, the entrance of the array must be set up on the border of the array. The entrance of this array here happens to be set up at this place that should have failed.”
The leader of the Feather Dragons had a reason for its guess, but it didn’t apply to the abnormality of the ice array and fire array.
“That’s true… But an array with complete strength shouldn’t have such a situation!” The leader of the Feather Dragons was greatly shocked.
“This is a psychological trap. We usually think that these two arrays are intact, but they are actually incomplete.” Ye Chen sighed. “If I’m correct, these two arrays must have been formed with calculation to create an incomplete area where the Spiritual Energy in the center of the array doesn’t cover. Then, the two areas overlapped to form the ice and fire arrays.”
“Well… There’s indeed such a possibility.” The leader of the Feather Dragons was stunned for a moment before reacting. “What about the secret chambers? What about the walls of the secret chambers that can’t be destroyed?”
“Do you even have to ask?” Ye Chen gave it a surprised gaze. “They are the real borders, just not of the ice array and fire array.”
