CHAPTER 2257  REDIRECTING AN ARRAY

The spread progression of the fissures was quite vast and if not for the fact that the arrays on the base were protecting it, the place might have collapsed a long time ago.

But now that Lin Mu was here, he could act on it.

'I need to redirect the arrays to open a safe path for them.' Lin Mu thought to himself,f as his mind started to work rapidly.

He already knew what array needed to be changed for it and it was none other than the Dual Yang Repulsing Array.

The other barriers that he had broken didn't need to be handled right now, as they would repair on their own later. Plus, they wouldn't really play much of a role in the defense right now as they weren't good for Death Qi, anyway.

The arrays that were protecting the base against the Death Qi were different from the physical barrier arrays.

'The Yang qi storage is still full but if we are to open a path, the consumption might spike rapidly.' Lin Mu understood after doing the calculations in his mind.

"Xiao Yang, I'll need Yang Qi… as much of it as possible." Lin Mu instructed the serpent.

"Okay~" Xiao Yang had eaten a lot earlier as such would not be lacking at all.

~SHUA~

In the next moment, he breathed out a cloud of Yang Qi that rose above him. "Yes, just like that." Lin Mu said, letting Xiao Yang accumulate the Yang Qi.

While that was being done, Lin Mu got to working on the array. The first thing he needed to do was to change the directions of the Dual Yang Repulsing Array.

'Their power is the highest when they are facing each other, but I only need it to face outwards.' Lin Mu thought to himself. 'I also don't need the Yang Marker array active as there is no use for it at the current moment. Instead, I can redirect the power to the Dual Yang Repulsing Array for additional output.' He quickly planned out.

~SHUA~ Têxt belongs to .

He directly summoned the Rune Shaping Brush and dipped it in the Inkstone shaped Dao Shell, imbuing it with immortal Qi.

~SHA~SHA~SHA~

Lin Mu's hands turned into a blur while the Rune Shaping Brush left shimmering trails of immortal Qi in the air. Runes started to form nonstop as Lin Mu began modifying the array.

Changing the direction of the array sounded simple enough, but for a direction sensitive array like the Dual Yang Repulsing Array, it was not. One had to be careful with it or there was a chance that the immortal Qi channels would end up conflicting and cause damage to the array.

In the worst case, this could even result in the total collapse of the array, which would be the result that Lin Mu wanted to avoid at all costs.

Thankfully he didn't need to worry about it since the Rune Shaping Brush assisted him in it efficiently.

His speed of making runes was impeccably fast, and he didn't even need to think before the runes were already created. He almost felt like his arm was moving faster than his thoughts, but realized that this was just an illusion created by the Rune Shaping Brush.

'It can almost predict what I need to make next… I suppose the more arrays and formations I work on, the better its capabilities would get.' Lin Mu understood more about his Formation Dao Embryo.

Such was the case with almost all Dao Embryos, as the more one used it the better one's control and proficiency with it got. That was also how one was supposed to improve one's understanding of a Dao, as was the situation with Lin Mu right now.

While he could not perceive it, his understanding of the Formation Dao was increasing subtly.

If he could keep this up for a long time, there was high chance for him to progress in it.

Minute after minute passed, as Lin Mu continued to work on the arrays. At the same time, he sensed the position of his companions through Little Shrubby. With their connection, he could tell exactly where they were, and Little Shrubby was also telling him how it was going.

'Looks like Crown Prince and the others are holding well enough. Though they haven't gotten as far as I would have liked,' Lin Mu thought after seeing their progress.

The number of fissures and Death Qi geysers had resulted in the area becoming contaminated with it. As such, they found it increasing harder to progress as they needed to use both defensive and offensive immortal Qi skills to get through it.

Thankfully, they had not been totally stopped, as such the hope was still very strong.

'I need to be precise about it…' Lin Mu calculated the path they were taking and the open spot he had between the Death Qi geysers. 'I'll only have one chance if I am to open a straight path for them that is uninterrupted.' He analyzed and changed the direction of the array accordingly.

Ten minutes passed like this before Lin Mu sensed that the group was nearing the location he needed them to be. ~SHUA~

He drew one last rune before gesturing with the Rune Shaping Brush to add it to the array. "This'll have to do," Lin Mu said before checking the Yang Qi that had been accumulating behind him. "That'll be good enough, Xiao Yang." He saw the white mist that seemingly filled the area now.

If one looked at it from above, they would find the contrasting white and black mist masking the area. The white mist was flowing towards the Yang storage and was overflowing.

~HUALA~

Under Lin Mu's control, the Dual Yang Repulsing Array glowed, and the array started to shift. Its formation circles turned towards a specific location and started to glow brightly.

Instead of two heads facing at each other, they were now parallel and facing the same direction.

~HONGLONG~

After a moment of delay, the Dual yang Repulsing Array fired two bright beams of Qi!
