"Is it you?" Chu Ming’s figure came into Ye Mei’s view. Although Ye Mei was surprised, her mood quickly recovered. After all, Chu Ming’s combat ability was not weaker than hers. It was normal for him to be able to come here. "Why are you here?" While Chu Ming was asking, the spiritual sense in his mind started to spread frantically. But in an instant, his eyebrows furrowed. The space here was extremely stable, and his spiritual sense could only spread ten meters, very slowly, not as fast as his eyes. Here, his spiritual sense was completely useless. "Like you, I broke into this Fourth Level Array, and then got trapped here!" Ye Mei replied indifferently. During the process of breaking into the array, the Calamity Pearl had lost its spiritual power protection and was no longer effective. The Calamity Pearl is a Celestial Level magical treasure. If fully utilized, breaking this array would be easy. However, the Calamity Pearl had been refined by the Blue Thunder King and was only temporarily lent to Ye Mei. Its power was limited. "Even you can’t break this array?" Chu Ming’s face showed a change of expression. During the arena competition, he was well aware that Ye Mei’s combat power was no less than his. Although he had his trump cards, Ye Mei, with her mysterious identity, must have had some too. Once unleashed, she was definitely not weaker than him. "This array is called the Tai Chi Yin Yang Array, a famous trapping array among the Fourth Level arrays. Unless you are a strong warrior of the Guiyuan Realm Sixth Layer or you find the array’s eye, getting out is as hard as ascending to heaven." Ye Mei said lightly. Hearing Ye Mei’s introduction, Chu Ming pondered. With his combat power, if he were to pour all his Sword Essence Power into Broken Dream, its destructive power could temporarily reach the Guiyuan Realm Sixth Layer. However, once the Sword Essence Power is used, it depletes, and recovering it is a long process. Moreover, the following arrays would also require the use of Sword Essence Power, making it impossible for him to break through them. Seeing Chu Ming remain silent, Ye Mei thought he was worried about his safety and immediately explained: "Don’t worry, this is just a trapping array. After a month, we will naturally be transported out." Chu Ming nodded slightly and, imitating Ye Mei, casually chose a spot on the high platform. He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to comprehend the surrounding Slaughter Sword Intent. At this moment, he was not in a hurry to leave. With five days left, it was not bad to comprehend the sword intent here. Time passed slowly. In this empty and silent space, the atmosphere was very oppressive. Gradually, Ye Mei’s calm mental realm showed a slight ripple. Two days passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, Chu Ming opened his eyes, and two beams of bright light disappeared from his eyes. Thud! Chu Ming slowly stood up. Originally planning to comprehend the Slaughter Sword Intent here for five days, he found himself fully adapted to it in just two days. Staying here any longer was of no benefit to him. Chu Ming’s actions caught Ye Mei’s attention. In fact, over the past two days, Ye Mei had launched several deadly attacks, trying to break the trapping array, but all ended in failure. However, only she knew if she used her full strength. "I know you still have trump cards. If the two of us join forces, we might be able to break the Tai Chi Yin Yang Array!" Chu Ming said calmly. "Alright!" Ye Mei knew that to leave the Tai Chi Yin Yang Array, she had to team up with Chu Ming. Only then would there be a glimmer of hope. "After two days of probing, I found this to be the weak point of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Array. In a moment, if we strike this spot together, there’s a high chance we’ll break the array!" Ye Mei walked to the center of the Tai Chi diagram, pointing at the black and white alternating dot at the center, and spoke slowly. Chu Ming nodded slightly, striding to the left side of the dot, standing shoulder to shoulder with Ye Mei. The two stood ten meters away from the dot. Streams of Sword Momentum began to gather around Chu Ming, turning into a raging Sword Momentum storm. On Ye Mei’s side, continuous crackling sounds were heard, with streams of lightning sparkling between her fingers, filled with destructive explosive power. "I’ll count to three, then we’ll strike together!" Ye Mei said. "Alright!" Chu Ming nodded in agreement. "One." "Two." "Three, attack!" Ye Mei’s gentle voice sounded. As soon as the word "three" was out, Chu Ming moved. A hazy glow burst from his sword, as if shattering a dream. The surrounding space seemed to present a false image of fragmentation, and then, with the tip of his Conjugate Sword as the center, the space’s traces rapidly spread outward. "Broken Dream!" In this move, Chu Ming’s Sword Essence Power frantically circulated, pouring entirely into it. Terrifying Sword Light whistled through the air, stabbing towards the black and white dot. Bang! Crackling! On the other side, Ye Mei also launched her trump card. In the immaculate sky, thunder roared, and a hint of purple emerged. A terrifying female hand reached down from the sky, stroking towards the dot. "Goddess’s Hand!" This purple female hand was incredibly terrifying, cutting through space with black lines slowly spreading and then constantly healing. Boom! Boom! Boom! The Sword Light and the terrifying hand struck the black and white dot simultaneously, sparks flying and purple energy spreading. A terrifying wave of energy turned into a white light ring, sweeping outwards. Crack! Crack! On the entire high platform, cracks began to sound. Then, from the center, tiny black cracks started spreading outward, gradually expanding until they covered the entire high platform. Ye Mei’s move, "Goddess’s Hand," gave her the destructive power of Guiyuan Realm Sixth Layer for a short time. Likewise, Chu Ming’s Broken Dream provided him the same destructive power. Their combined attack exceeded the Tai Chi Yin Yang Array’s tolerable limit. Pop, pop, pop... Everything around them was destroyed, like a burning scroll. The space transformed, and when Chu Ming and Ye Mei came to their senses, they were back on Sword Peak. Exhale! Chu Ming lightly exhaled, feeling the Sword Essence Power in his Dantian nearly depleted. He felt a sense of urgency to advance the "Pure Essence Sword Qi Technique." As long as he could advance it to the Tenth Layer, his situation wouldn’t be so dire. "Let’s part ways here." Chu Ming suggested, looking at Ye Mei standing to the side. "No problem." Ye Mei nodded in agreement. On Sword Peak, traveling together was not suitable. After all, one never knew when one might need to stop and comprehend the Slaughter Sword Intent. Moreover, Chu Ming had noticed that Ye Mei wasn’t a swordsman. Considering her mysterious identity, it wasn’t hard to guess that she had another purpose for coming to Sword Peak. Even if he didn’t suggest parting ways, Ye Mei would likely leave alone in the end.
