Chapter 288 Break the Formation! It’s that Simple! (Fifth update)

“You’ve figured out the method to break the formation?”

Demean Cat was taken aback by this, and skeptically looked at Yang Zhen and said “Kid, are you able to, really? Just now this majesty remembered something. It seems like a mathematical algorithm from the previous era, quite complicated. Even some mathematicians with odd abilities may not be able to figure it out. If you can’t figure it out, you better not force your way in. This thing is quite dangerous.”

That Demean Cat managed to say so many unknown things in a row made Yang Zhen stunned as well. Clearly, like the Demean Cat said, the chance of passing through this serpent path is too small.

Everyone else was taken aback by this, especially people like Mo Xueling, then expressions filled with shock, murmuring, “mathematics of the previous era?

Yang Zhen looked at Mo Xueling with doubt, asking, “You’ve heard of it?” “The mathematics of the previous era is indeed quite profound, and few people in the world can learn it. However, once you do learn it and become the legendary mage, you can hear from the heavens. It’s very powerful and it’s said that you can calculate everything in the world!”

Yang Zhen was startled and said, “Calculate everything in the world? Isn’t that the job of an Astrology Master?”

“Astrology Master?” Mo Xueling shook her head and said, “Astrology Master is just a minor branch of the mage.”

With this remark, Yang Zhen sucked in a breath, giving Demean Cat a strange look.

This bastard knew a lot. He even knew about mages, and it was something from the previous era.

Meanwhile, Yang Zhen was quietly wary of Mo Xueling, the foreign woman, in his heart. Most things from the previous era were taboo, known to few. And even if they knew, they were often forbidden secrets. Mo Xueling and the others could mention it like a family treasure, showing how strong and ancient the Ink Pool Peak sect was.

Demean Cat looked at Yang Zhen with an air of gloating, saying, “How about it, Sonny? This is something handed down from the previous era. If you don’t have the corresponding method to enter the formation, there is basically no chance of guessing right. If you can’t get past it, we won’t laugh at you.” “Solve the problem!” Sao Chicken glared at Yang Zhen, his eyes flashing with skepticism. Then, shaking his head, he dragged Yang Zhen over to the side of the math problem.

Yang Zhen picked up Sao Chicken and said, “Stop dragging, does this Sao Saint need to do calculations to break the formation?”

Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Demean Cat looked at Yang Zhen with a puzzled face and asked, “Kid, do you really know the method to break the formation?” “Of course!” Yang Zhen laughed out loud, pulling Hua Youyue and said, “Let’s go, little maiden, I’ll show you the true Spirit Peak!” By now, Yang Zhen had truly understood that only when the serpent path was opened, was Spirit Peak really called Spirit Peak. The reason why people who climbed Spirit Peak in the past gained nothing was all because Ziwei Heavenly Lord hadn’t awakened.

Hua Youyue looked at Yang Zhen curiously and asked, “Have you really figured out the method to break the formation?”

“Absolutely!” Yang Zhen answered without hesitation, pulling Hua Youyue to the entrance of the serpent path, saying, “Wait a minute, little maiden, I need to refine something.”

Everyone looked at Yang Zhen curiously, wondering what on earth Yang Zhen was going to do.

Yang Zhen ignored everyone, took out some things from his storage ring, and using the simplest method, refined them into some crystal mirrors!

While refining, Yang Zhen was cursing in his heart.

Damn it, a man in a hurry can do anything. Except for math problems that hinder the development of human thinking, the profound knowledge of the Azure Planet indeed does not deceive me!

However, if there’s a problem that can be solved without using math, he was determined not to solve it with math.

Yang Zhen really did know the method to break the formation and was sure there would be no omissions. There was no way he would be wrong.

This method came to him in a flash of insight when he had just executed that all-encompassing sword.

Who would have thought that the problem Yang Zhen had calculated for so long without getting a result was accidentally solved by a flash of light. Yang Zhen was secretly relieved. If he had not learned that all-encompassing sword from the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower, he would not have been able to handle even a trace of Ziwei Heavenly Lord’s consciousness, let alone find a solution from that beam of light that penetrated the sky and earth.

After understanding and integrating everything, Yang Zhen realized that this serpent path was not a mathematical algorithm from the previous era, neither was it a geometry problem. Rather, it was a simple light reflection problem. He really didn’t know if the person who made the problem wanted to test the problem solver’s mathematical algorithm, or just wanted to make fun of people. A mind-bender. If you calculated, you lost!

However, Yang Zhen had always believed that this mysterious question, the idea that all roads lead to Rome, must have solutions that even the creator of this array did not consider – there was more than one way to solve it!

The creator of the problem perhaps meant to test the computational skills of future generations, but now the art of calculation had already been lost on the mainland. Other than Ziwei Heavenly Lord, presumably no one was capable of navigating through the Serpent Path.

However, fortuitously enough, Yang Zhen, in a moment of inspiration, came up with a remarkably simple and clear method to break this formation.

Yang Zhen couldn’t suppress a chuckle as he prepared the mirror. He wondered if the person who set up the Serpent Path would feel infuriated enough to climb out of their grave when they found out their complex problem was solved so easily.

The insolent cat came near with a peculiar look, clawing at the crystal mirror that Yang Zhen had dumped on the ground, and asked, “Kid, this is just an ordinary crystal mirror. What are you planning to do with it? Could it actually break the formation?”

Yang Zhen glanced at the insolent cat and replied, “What do you know about the loneliness of a genius? It’s called intelligence!”

With that, Yang Zhen stood up, flicking on a simple flashlight that he had prepared. He aimed the beam of light at the entrance of the Serpent Path – the light swiftly illuminated the path that Shanyang had just traversed.

At the sight of this shaft of light, everyone gasped in amazement, their eyes filled with suspicion as they stared at Yang Zhen.

Mo Xueling trembled as she watched in astonishment. She murmured to herself, “So, that’s how it is!”

“What’s ‘that’s how it is’?” Shanyang was still thoroughly baffled. He was completely lost about what was happening until Yang Zhen followed the path he had traversed, stopped by the solar wall, re-lit the circular prohibition on the wall with a slap, and then, under the curious gaze of everyone, stuck the recently prepared crystal mirror on the prohibition with a ‘thud’ sound. As Yang Zhen’s hand moved away from the crystal mirror, the beam from the flashlight hit the mirror, refracted abruptly, and shot towards the opposite direction.

“What?”

All the practitioners present let out a gasp of surprise, their faces filled with shock as they looked at Yang Zhen.

Shanyang was petrified. Looking at Aranda, flabbergasted, he muttered, “Can it really be this simple?”

“Yes, a pillar of light has appeared, but how can we know this path is the correct one?” Aranda was not yet prepared to give up.

How is it possible? The Serpent Path that had confounded everyone and which nobody had managed to cross, was broken by such a simple and clear method? Observing that Yang Zhen was about to step onto the next prohibition without so much as a second glance, everyone held their breath, straining their necks to watch Yang Zhen as they swallowed with difficulty.

Shanyang had stopped at this point earlier, using his Heaven Measuring Ruler for a long time, but in the end, he failed to determine the next stepping point and ran back, frightened by the stand-off between Yang Zhen and Ziwei Heavenly Lord.

If Yang Zhen managed to step down without being struck down, wouldn’t the possibility of this method breaking the Serpent Path be close to infinite!

Among the crowd, Hua Youyue silently watched Yang Zhen. Seeing that Yang Zhen did not hesitate as he stepped forward, a faint smile appeared on her face — she promptly followed him.

Hum- !

Yang Zhen stepped on the first square prohibition outlined by the light. The prohibition instantly lit up. The hearts of everyone felt like they had been struck by a heavy blow. Seeing that Yang Zhen was unscathed, they erupted in cheers.

The insolent cat and the Sao Saint exchanged a glance, their faces full of joy. The insolent cat, in its haste, didn’t even have time to adjust Sao Saint’s head position and quickly followed Hua Youyue towards Yang Zhen.

“The kid is awesome!” The insolent cat cried out loudly.

” 666!” Sao Saint flapped its wings, following closely behind the insolent cat. At that instant, everyone looked at Yang Zhen with a mix of shock and awe. Yang Zhen and the others merely followed the line of mirrors and did not make a single mistake.

Everyone, exultant at this miraculous feat, rushed to catch up with Yang Zhen and his group.

However, halfway through their pursuit, Yang Zhen and the others had already left the Serpent Path and the next moment, they disappeared out of thin air. This sudden development shocked everyone. The landscape ahead was clearly visible, yet, how did Yang Zhen and his group manage to disappear into thin air?
