“Enough of that, let's just go outside first. Move.” Ouyang Zixin shook her head, feeling that the events of the past few days were strange. She even had a sense that someone was playing with her behind the scenes. After all, those who entered the Millennium Ruins were all prominent figures from the Three Kingdoms. If they found out that after all their hard work to get in, they were actually just accompanying her, well, that would be quite amusing.
“Why are you so slow?” Yun Tianmo frowned as he looked at the returning Ouyang Zixin. He knew her pace well; how could it take so long to run to a few places? He had been worried for quite a while.
Beside them, Yun Tianying chuckled, enjoying the spectacle and teasing, “Sister-in-law, my brother was so worried he almost jumped out of his skin. Hey, is the 'heart' in your name referring to his heart?”
“Huh?” Ouyang Zixin felt something was off. Wait, Sister-in-law? “Ahem, um, don’t call me that!”
Nangong Tuo watched the three talking and wondered what he had missed. Why was Yun Tianying calling Ouyang Zixin Sister-in-law? She was supposed to be the one marrying him in the future. He absolutely could not tolerate someone teasing his future wife and quickly said, “Exactly, don’t call her that. Ouyang Zixin, come over here; I’ll protect you.”
“Alright, stop making trouble and get ready; we need to leave.” Ouyang Zixin shot Nangong Tuo a glare. Him? Protect her? After being taken down for so many days, anyone here could protect themselves better than he could!
——Master, aren’t you going to ask if they noticed anything unusual?
Ask? What for? Don’t you think I have enough troubles already?
Not to mention others; just Yun Tianmo had already sensed some secrets about her. If she recklessly brought up those strange occurrences earlier, wouldn’t she be inviting suspicion? She wasn’t that foolish.
Ouyang Zixin glanced back at the Underground Palace; it would soon disappear. She had originally wanted to explore and treasure hunt here, but too many unexpected things had happened. She couldn’t stay any longer. With a silent sigh in her heart, Ouyang Zixin focused her mind; this was not the time for idle thoughts. She needed to concentrate all her attention on the final Divine Escape Hand Seal. It was the key to getting out.
"You all stand in a circle, with your palms facing each other, and release your Mysterious Energy outward, connecting with one another." Ouyang Zixin instructed everyone to form a small circle while she stood in the center, right above the Divine Escape Hand Seal. "I have already connected the eight hand seals together. When you see me release the Mysterious Energy, you should combine your connected Mysterious Energy onto the nearest Mysterious Energy line."
"A teleportation array?" Yun Tianmo immediately recognized that this method was essentially the simplest form of a teleportation array. However, even the simplest teleportation array could not be completed solely by connecting a few people's Mysterious Energy; it required a substantial amount of materials to set up.
Ouyang Zixin first nodded, then shook her head, denying the idea of it being a teleportation array. She remembered having once stepped onto a teleportation array, which was quite different from what she was describing now. But if it wasn't a teleportation array, she didn't know how to explain what it actually was.
"I can't explain it right now. Do you trust me?" Ouyang Zixin tried to make her gaze appear sincere. Although she felt somewhat guilty, she was absolutely certain that what she said about being able to lead everyone out was true.
"Is there any need to say that? Of course we trust you! As for them... heh heh..." Nangong Tuo, with his foolish and unchanging nature, couldn't be swayed at all. However, he was genuinely supportive of Ouyang Zixin.
"Thank you." Ouyang Zixin turned to look at Nangong Tuo standing behind her. He wasn't a bad person; he just wasn't the one she had in mind.
Nangong Tuo stared at Ouyang Zixin's smiling face, completely dumbfounded. He remembered the first time they met on the street; when he turned around, he saw that bright smile. Although she often treated him coldly afterward, he didn't mind at all. He firmly believed that one day she would smile at him like that again—look, wasn't that moment happening now?
"Alright, get ready and do as I just said." Ouyang Zixin looked at Yun Tianmo facing her and put away her smile. "If I can't hold on, don't intervene."
Ouyang Zixin had already instructed Nameless that if she couldn't sustain the entire process, he would need to take over because only he could replace her.
"Okay."
At this point, asking more questions was pointless. It wasn't about whether or not to intervene; it was about who would step in if she couldn't hold on. Yun Tianmo readily agreed, his lips moving slightly, prompting Ouyang Zixin to curve her mouth into a smile.
"I will too," Ouyang Zixin replied with her lips.
In the Underground Palace, centered around the Divine Escape Hand Seal, eight other hand seals gradually lit up in a circle. Ouyang Zixin extended her arms out to the sides, facing the stone ceiling of the Underground Palace, and slowly closed her eyes. As time passed, her body seemed to resonate with the surrounding hand seals, emitting a silver-gray light.
Swish, swish, swish—
From above the eight outer hand seals, eight beams of light shot forth—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and black—heading towards Ouyang Zixin's Divine Escape Hand Seal. Although her eyes were closed, she could sense everything happening around her. Just as the eight beams were about to reach her, she suddenly opened her eyes. Two silver-gray beams burst forth from her eyes and met the eight beams above her head—
Bang!
The collision was explosive, scattering colorful light that showered over everyone around her, creating a beautiful spectacle.
"Quickly, connect your Mysterious Energy!" Ouyang Zixin's voice rang out, pulling everyone's thoughts back; sometimes Scenery could be misleading.
Following Ouyang Zixin's instructions, they connected their Mysterious Energy to the nearest beam of light. Undoubtedly, they all chose the color closest to their own cultivated Mysterious Energy.
Perhaps this was merely instinct, but it greatly aided Ouyang Zixin since she had not considered this aspect. After all, her Mysterious Energy did not belong to any of the common types found in Yuhai Continent, which is why she overlooked this natural affinity.
"Millennium Ruins, Underground Palace, let us not meet again!" Ouyang Zixin silently thought to herself; ideally, even that woman who called herself "her" would disappear as well...
