Then, Ricky and Pearl began to look around the area to check if there was anything. They initially thought that the space would notify them in some way about the array, but it didn't happen.
They patiently waited for a long time yet nothing happened. They were unable to detect any useful information in their minds. Ricky and Pearl both closed their eyes and concentrated on searching for any clues but it all ended in vain.
All they had was further confusion.
"What exactly is going on here? I couldn't feel anything in this area. I can't detect anything unusual, not even a single sign of danger," Ricky asked in a calm voice as he looked at Pearl with puzzled eyes.
They would be unable to successfully break through the array and pass the test until a single challenge appeared. If nothing changed, they would not have any chance to obtain the Massacring Antenna and escape the area. That was the last thing they wanted to happen.
Looking at Ricky, Pearl also shook her head. She was also puzzled by the situation they were in. Deep inside, she was having the same heavy heart that Ricky had. The array in that area didn't seem to be an easy one. The clue would probably be more subtle, unlike the one they had gone through in the former arrays.
"Maybe we can find something interesting inside those floating rocks," Ricky said with uncertainty.
Determined, Ricky jumped into the air and threw a punch onto one of the rocks. It cracked and broke down into pieces that fell on the ground.
At the same time, Ricky also noticed there was a skeleton mixed among the rocks.
Ricky was a middle spiritual king, so it wasn't a surprise he was able to notice the skeleton were from a human being. Apart from that, signs of enlightening power still lingered within them. It was not easy to deter that before the warrior turned into a dead skeleton, he must have been at least as strong as a middle spiritual king of peak level.
"This is surprising. There is a skeleton embedded within the rock. God! I'm afraid there is a bunch of skeletons in each of these rocks," Ricky said to Pearl.
Without any hesitation, he decided to confirm his guess. Ricky began channeling his strength and smashed more of the other rocks. As expected, more skeletons came out. Some were from human beings while some seemed to be from spiritual beasts.
"I'm afraid you are right. All of these rocks contain skeletons," Pearl said as she saw what was happening. She then felt something dangerous approaching them.
"What's more, there is a high possibility that when they accidentally broke into this space, they were controlled by the array until they lost their lives to its power," Pearl continued," This could mean that if we do not find a way out of here soon, we will end up being skeletons in these rocks as well."
"So our top priority is to find a way out of here as soon as possible, right? But ever since we entered this place, nothing unusual has happened. And I don't think we can get out of here by blindly hitting spots in the air. This array must be powerful. We are merely two middle spiritual kings and I don't think we are strong enough to break through it. Otherwise, the Massacring Holy Ants wouldn't have been called holy beasts," Ricky commented.
Before his voice faded, an old voice came out of nowhere. "Ha-ha! You are exactly right. This array is called the Dark and Light Rock Array. Only a spiritual emperor is strong enough to destroy it with strength. You guys are too weak to even dream of causing damage to my array."
Both Ricky and Pearl were alerted at once. They exchanged looks in surprise before they turned to look in the direction of the strange voice. They saw clouds with the colors of black and gold gathering in the air. A few seconds later, the shadow of an old man appeared amidst the clouds.
'Is that a spiritual hologram?' Ricky and Pearl asked inwardly. 'Could he be the spiritual hologram of someone from the Massacring Holy Ant tribe?'
"Sir," they greeted the old man reverently as they slightly bowed their heads.
Beyond question, the strange old man must know everything in this place. He was a key person. Whether Ricky and Pearl could successfully get out of here depended on him. It was just natural for them to treat him with respect.
"I've been waiting here for years. You are finally here. One of you has the Feminine Mutant. Although the other one doesn't have the Massacring Mutant, he is stronger than the owner of a Massacring Mutant," the old man said in an excited tone as he looked at Ricky and Pearl over and over again. He seemed to be very satisfied to see them.
