The people in the room were all powerful figures, each one far stronger than him. As soon as Yang Jun entered, he felt an overwhelming pressure that nearly took his breath away.

However, as the descendant of the Array Master Yang Yuan, Yang Jun did not believe he was inferior to anyone. Faced with over a dozen powerful figures, he subconsciously straightened his chest.

"So this is Yang Yuan's descendant?"

"His strength is quite low!"

"I wonder how his research on arrays is coming along?"

Low murmurs of discussion rose among the crowd.

Yang Jun couldn't help but glance toward the source of the voices and saw several Divine Spirits. Each one was a stranger to him.

He wasn't afraid, though. He snorted softly and said, "These must be the seniors? Please do not underestimate me. Mastery of arrays has no necessary connection to strength. While my strength may be lacking, as the descendant of an Array Master, I dare say my accomplishments in arrays are second to none."

A cold snort came from Zhou Xuanmen. Without saying much, this Grand Elder merely cast a faint glance at those who had spoken.

The ones chatting moments ago immediately fell silent.

This Grand Elder Zhou was notorious for his covert methods. If provoked, one could easily face punishment. They were in no hurry to risk offending him.

"Alright, Yang Jun, you need not pay attention to others. For now, I will contact Xiao Mu. You can exchange ideas with him and see how the array of the Five Elements Sect can be broken."

"Understood, Grand Elder Zhou."

Yang Jun clasped his hands respectfully toward Zhou Xuanmen.

Zhou Xuanmen glanced at Xiao Gu.

Understanding his intent, Xiao Gu immediately stepped forward and established communication with Xiao Mu's Divine Image. Bowing in salute, he faced the image.

Meanwhile, Xiao Mu, who had been waiting in the Sealed Land, sensed this and immediately returned his Divine Sense to his Divine Image.

"Greetings, Grand Elder Zhou, greetings to Senior Wu De, greetings to Senior Zun, and greetings to all the elders and fellow Daoists."

Xiao Mu greeted the group, then glanced at Yang Jun, saying, "Brother Yang is here as well."

"Brother Xiao, I have come under the Chief's orders to assist you in breaking the array," Yang Jun explained his purpose, then confidently asked, "Brother Xiao, please describe the array you've encountered."

"Brother Yang, the situation is as follows."

Xiao Mu gave a brief description of the Five Elements Sect's array he had encountered.

Yang Jun didn't even wait for him to finish before smiling and interrupting, "Brother Xiao, I already know. This is the Broken Sky Divine Array."

"The Broken Sky Divine Array?"

Xiao Mu was slightly taken aback. Yang Jun seemed truly remarkable. The inheritance of Yang Yuan, the Array Master, was this formidable? Xiao Mu hadn't even finished his explanation, yet Yang Jun already knew what array the Five Elements Sect was using.

Seemingly aware of Xiao Mu's thoughts, Yang Jun smiled proudly. "The Broken Sky Divine Array is quite easy to decrypt. You merely need five Array Breaking Orders. Brother Xiao, please wait."

Saying this, Yang Jun took out a Storage Box, reached inside, and retrieved five dark silver Array Breaking Orders. He stepped forward and placed them on the altar table in front of Xiao Mu's Divine Image.

"Brother Xiao, the Broken Sky Divine Array you've encountered was arranged using the Five Elements Power. By employing the Five Elements Array, you can immediately decrypt it. Take these five Array Breaking Orders. Once you're at the outer perimeter of the Broken Sky Divine Array, simply place the orders according to the Five Elements' positions and accompany them with the corresponding hand seals to break it."

Yang Jun then switched to transmitting instructions directly, teaching Xiao Mu the necessary hand seals.

Was it really this easy to decrypt?

Yang Jun's words left Xiao Mu feeling a bit unreal. A Great Array that had troubled him for so long was effortlessly resolved with a wave of Yang Jun's hand?

"Hold on, Brother Yang. The Five Elements Sect is monitoring my movements. If I break this array, they might immediately realize I've climbed the mountain. Do you have a way to bypass the array without breaking it, ensuring they remain unaware of my passage?"

Xiao Mu voiced his concerns and made his request.

"Bypassing the array without breaking it and without alerting the Five Elements Sect—passing through the Great Array unnoticed?"

Yang Jun lowered his head in thought. After a few minutes, he looked up and smiled. "I've got it. Achieving Brother Xiao's desired result is even easier than breaking the array. You'll only need three Array Breaking Orders and a set of hand seals."

"However, this would merely allow Brother Xiao to move through the array without revealing my methods. Brother Xiao, I'll give you thirteen Array Breaking Orders. Follow my method to arrange them, and not only can you pass through the array unnoticed, but at the critical moment, you'll also be able to wrest control of the array from the Five Elements Sect and wield it for yourself."

Yang Jun stepped forward again and took another eight Array Breaking Orders out of the Storage Box.

These were also dark silver Array Breaking Orders, which he carefully laid one by one on the altar table before Xiao Mu's Divine Image.

"You can do that too?"

Xiao Mu was overjoyed. Yang Jun's proposal had completely exceeded his expectations.

Not only could he bypass the array, but he could also seize control of it, turning the Great Array into a weapon for himself at the critical moment.

"Thank you, Brother Yang!" Xiao Mu expressed his gratitude with heartfelt sincerity.

"Brother Xiao, you're too kind." Yang Jun smiled lightly. "Where would I be today without Brother Xiao's assistance back then? If you hadn't granted me the Earth God Rank, I doubt I'd have received my inheritance. Offering a small service in return is merely a token of gratitude—not worth mentioning."

"Brother Yang is truly a person who values gratitude. Regardless, I still owe you my thanks."

Controlling his Divine Image, Xiao Mu picked up the Array Breaking Orders. Amid swirling smoke, the items vanished as he stored them away.

Then Xiao Mu asked, "Brother Yang, I hadn't expected your mastery of arrays to be so impressive—so much so that you can easily decrypt the arrays of the Five Elements Sect."

"That being said, I have another array I'd like to consult you about."

It turned out that Xiao Mu suddenly thought of the eight additional Doors of Creation at the mountain's peak, and of the Chaos Array.

Without understanding the array, he feared that even if he reached the summit, he wouldn't be able to break the Chaos Array. Since Yang Jun was here, why not ask in advance?

"Please go ahead, Brother Xiao," Yang Jun said with a grin, eager to showcase his skills by deciphering yet another array.

Xiao Mu described the Chaos Array he had observed.

After patiently listening, Yang Jun confidently said, "Brother Xiao, this is the Eight Primal Energies Sixty-four Poles Creation God Formation."

"The Eight Primal Energies Sixty-four Poles Creation God Formation? Brother Yang, are you sure?" Xiao Mu asked incredulously. Yang Jun seemed to know the answer again.

"If it were any other array, I might not know it," Yang Jun declared proudly, "but this one was personally designed by my ancestor, Yang Yuan. It's part of my bloodline inheritance—how could I not recognize it?"

Designed by Yang Yuan?

This… seemed entirely plausible. Yang Jun was astonishing, and the Yang Family's inheritance was extraordinary.

Xiao Mu was momentarily stunned before he internally praised him. "Brother Yang must surely know how to decrypt it."

Yang Jun nodded, but his expression then slightly clouded. "Brother Xiao, I do know the decryption method, but it is rather complex. At least four powerful individuals must cooperate to break the array. With only one person, I'm afraid it cannot be done."

"It can't be broken by just one person?" Xiao Mu froze, disappointed.

Seriously? Unable to break the array alone? Was there any point to ascending the mountain, then? Would he have to wait until the Five Elements Sect broke the array to make his move?

Thinking this, Xiao Mu felt a surge of unwillingness.

"Brother Xiao, don't worry. While one person cannot break the array, it doesn't mean entering the array is impossible."

Seeing the change in Xiao Mu's expression, Yang Jun quickly reassured him. "Brother Xiao, are you planning to break the array or merely enter it?"

"Is it possible to enter without breaking the array?"

Hope rekindled in Xiao Mu's eyes. "If so, then I'll settle for just entering."

Entering without breaking the array would be relatively simpler and less taxing.

Xiao Mu thought that if he merely entered the array without breaking it, he might even reach the array's treasures faster than the Five Elements Sect.

"Why wouldn't it be possible?"

Yang Jun replied, "If Brother Xiao only wishes to enter the array, that's much easier. I'll give you a special Array Breaking Order. Using it with the appropriate incantation, you can effortlessly step into the array."

Yang Jun once again took out his Storage Box and retrieved a single, dark golden Array Breaking Order.

This time, unlike the dark silver ones from before, this dark golden Array Breaking Order was not only more than twice as large, but its surface bore far more intricate textures.

The dark silver ones might have had a few hundred lines of texture each, but this larger, dark golden one had at least several thousand.

Yang Jun placed the dark golden Array Breaking Order on the altar table, and it immediately emitted a faint golden glow.
