With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

That was because they knew what the metal poles being destroyed meant.

These metal poles were used to create an array that had an effect on the spirit beasts. In short, these metal poles created the array that allowed the owner of this Minor World, the one that had brought them all here, to control the spirit beasts.

That was why as soon as two of the metal poles were broken and the array was shattered, the spirit beasts regained their own free will.

At the same time, there was another effect that this array had.

It formed a connection with all of the spirit beasts that were controlled with it, allowing them to tap into the spiritual energy source of this Minor World. That was what had allowed them to have seemingly endless spiritual energy reserves and fire attacks as much as they wanted.

In a sense, they did have this since they were tapping into the almost endlessly large reserves of this entire Minor World.

After the spirit beasts regained their free will, there weren\'t many that stayed.

The ones that did were those that had lost themselves in their rage over being enslaved like that. They vented that rage by attacking anything that was close to them, not caring what they were.

But of course, the preference for their targets were humans.

So the various groups that were scattered around were the targets of these enraged spirit beasts.

It was just a good thing that they no longer had the same power as before.

These groups were groups that had come from powerful sects, so it wasn\'t as if any of the members of these groups were weak. They were able to fight off some of these spirit beasts at first, but there were just too many of them in the end.

They were completely surrounded and it cost them a few members to break free of this blockade. Still, there were people that were able to escape in the end.

There wasn\'t a single problem for the cloaked figure that had been with Bi Qing.

With waves of his hand, he slapped down all of the spirit beasts that came at him.

They were just on completely different levels that the spirit beasts weren\'t able to do a thing to him.

Soon, there was nothing left but the two remaining metal poles, the cloaked figures, and a bunch of corpses on the ground.

Once everything had been cleared from this place, Bi Qing let go of Lin Fan\'s hand and walked over to the two remaining poles. She looked at them as if she was looking for something, but in the end, she revealed a disappointed look and walked back over.

She looked at Lin Fan with an appreciative look and gave a nod before saying, "Good job."

Lin Fan couldn\'t help being surprised, but he was even more surprised to find how shocked the cloaked figure looked. It was as if this cloaked figure had never expected Bi Qing to say something like this.

Bi Qing didn\'t even wait for Lin Fan to say anything as she turned around and started walking off again.

Seeing her getting further and further away, Lin Fan, Mu Bao Bao, and the cloaked figure had no choice but to follow her.

As they followed her, the cloaked figure was clearly looking at Lin Fan still. Lin Fan could feel their gaze on him, as if they were trying to figure him out, but Lin Fan himself didn\'t know what was happening either.

Since meeting her, Bi Qing had completely confused him with everything that she had done…

Once they had gotten a bit away from where the clearing had been, Bi Qing waved her hand and the cloaked figures that had disappeared landed beside her again.

She looked at them and asked, "What\'s the situation?"

The cloaked figures whispered a few things to her before shaking their head as if they were saying that they didn\'t know anything else.

Bi Qing narrowed her eyes to look at them and the cloaked figures couldn\'t help turning away slightly to avoid this gaze. But in the end, they weren\'t able to give her any more information, so Bi Qing turned her attention away from them.

She closed her eyes as if she was sensing something before walking off in a certain direction.

As she walked past them, there was a clear trace of disappointment that was in her eyes.

The cloaked figures just awkwardly made their way over to the cloaked figure that had stayed with Bi Qing.

These cloaked figures came close together as if they were talking about something before they all suddenly turned to look at Lin Fan. They didn\'t even bother hiding it, so Lin Fan was immediately able to sense them looking at him.

As they looked at him, he just revealed a bitter smile.

It didn\'t take much thought to guess why they were looking at him, but he didn\'t know the answer to the question that they were all asking either. After all, since he had met Bi Qing, he had never been able to figure her out.

So the only thing that he could do was ignore their gazes that were clearly asking for answers.

As they moved along, Lin Fan was able to figure out where they were going.

Bi Qing was moving towards another area of concentrated spiritual energy.

Without even resting up first, she was planning on taking on another array.

Lin Fan had seen how much spiritual energy it had taken her to even take on the first one, so he didn\'t feel like this was a good idea. But it wasn\'t as if he could do anything to stop her.

At the same time, he knew that she would be counting on his ability to do it…

But Lin Fan also didn\'t think that it would be as easy as Bi Qing thought it would be.

There had to be a reason why there was a path to the first array in the first place. The trap wasn\'t that they would be surrounded by the spirit beasts as soon as they arrived in the clearing.

They had even been able to spend quite a bit of time in the clearing without any spirit beasts approaching.

It was almost as if there was no surveillance near the clearing at all.

But that wouldn\'t make sense…

If the person who controlled this Minor World controlled the entire Minor World, why wouldn\'t they be able to do something as simple as surveil an area?

Unless there was something that they didn\'t know about.

Lin Fan felt like they should search the area first, but it was clear that Bi Qing wasn\'t in a mood to listen. And even if he wanted to say something, it wasn\'t as if he could approach Bi Qing.

She was just walking forward and the cloaked figures were now standing in between Lin Fan and Bi Qing. It was almost as if they were trying to keep the two of them apart from each other.

So they just traveled in silence like this until they came close to the area of concentrated spiritual energy. Once they were in this vicinity, Bi Qing turned to look at Lin Fan and waited for something from him.

A few of the cloaked figures were confused as to why she was looking at him like this, but the one that had been with her the entire time understood.

They had noticed that it was Lin Fan who had told Bi Qing where to go last time.

Lin Fan had been scouting the area the entire time with Greeny\'s puppets, but this time…he didn\'t have good news for her.

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "There\'s no path this time."

Seeing the serious look on his face, Bi Qing couldn\'t help asking, "Are you sure? Did you check every location?"

Lin Fan said with a nod, "I\'ve already checked the entire area and there\'s no path like last time."

When he had found this through Greeny\'s puppets, he had felt a bad premonition.

Why would it suddenly change like this?

If there was a path for the last one, there should be a path for this one. Especially since the patrol paths for the spirit beasts were the same as last time. The only difference was that there was an extra patrol added for where the cleared path had once been.

The fact that it happened like this really made Lin Fan feel like they were being watched and being led down a certain path.

He really didn\'t want to keep going since he felt like it was a trap, but he didn\'t have a choice in this matter either.

After considering things, Bi Qing decided to still head towards the center of this area of concentrated spiritual energy.

After all, it wasn\'t as if they would be affected by the spirit beasts if they did encounter them.

Even if the spirit beasts met them, they would just ignore them since they had orders to ignore the ones that weren\'t marked with the powder.

This wasn\'t something that could be depended on, but for now, it was fact. For now, they could take advantage of this to reach the array in the center.

Bi Qing had wanted to use Lin Fan\'s illusion spell as well, but Lin Fan shook his head to signify that there were just too many people.

Bi Qing knitted her brows for a bit, but she didn\'t send anyone off this time.

She could also tell that there was something off here, so she didn\'t want to take that same risk as before of sending her guards off.

All of them headed into the middle of the area together.

As they made their way through, as they had expected, they encountered the spirit beasts who were patrolling this area.

But just like before, the spirit beasts ignored their group and just allowed them to keep going. It was as if the spirit beasts didn\'t notice them at all.

They were able to smoothly make their way through several patrols of spirit beasts until they reached the center of this area of concentrated spiritual energy.

When they arrived there, they found the same thing as before.

There was a clearing right in the center of this area and nothing else.

However, Bi Qing didn\'t stall at all as she walked right up to this clearing and went to a certain point.

Standing there, she reached her hand out to touch something before the same four metal poles as before appeared out of nowhere.
