"Sky-Splitting Technique!"
Countless spatial rifts appeared within the area covered by the dome. These spatial rifts were invisible to the naked eye; their location and extent could only be roughly guessed through the distortion of light.
In Lin Yao's eyes, the spatial rift was like the root system of a tree, starting from himself and spreading outwards from a distance of three meters.
As this crack spread, it spawned more tiny cracks, extending all the way to the area protected by the great array, before being dissipated by some unknown force, unable to truly penetrate the range protected by the great array.
Before long, the spatial rifts disappeared one by one, and the light and images under the dome returned to normal.
"That's it?"
Lin Yao found it strange. Logically speaking, a spell that had gone to so much trouble to create should have produced some kind of effect.
The "Nirvana Technique" has indeed shown some activity; the gray mist has expanded to cover the entire sky above the array, and the energy channels from the sea that were previously sensed have disappeared, indicating that it has been effective.
But the "Sky-Splitting Technique" only distorted the light for a few seconds, and then it was gone!
"It's over."
Xiao Cao honestly answered Lin Yao's question, "It's our turn to deal with 'Wu Yi'."
"It's broken?" Lin Yao pressed on relentlessly, determined to find out what was going on. He had been underwater for who knows how long, and he was not only bored but also worried about the outside world.
"No, who said it was invalid?"
Little Grass retorted, "Didn't you see that 'Sky Rift Technique' has already hit the protective barrier of the great formation?"
"But it's no use." Lin Yao wondered, feeling that his brain wasn't working very well.
"Who says it's useless?" Little Grass laughed. "Of course we can't break into the protective zone of the great formation, but we can interfere with the spatial magic in this area."
"Now that I can't use 'Sky Rift Technique' and 'Dancing Robe' either, that's good enough. We've achieved our goal."
"But..." Lin Yao still had a question, "Those 'space eggs' are still there, and I see that 'space eggs' are still being generated far and wide inside the formation, so aren't they useless?"
"Tch! You don't understand, do you!"
Little Grass said smugly, "We're going against the great formation, do you think we're just some Tom, Dick, or Harry? We can only slightly interfere with spatial magic, making the space in this area unstable. So even if 'Dancing Robe' controls the great formation, she can't extract energy from the other dimension. Isn't that exactly what we're aiming for?"
"As for these 'space eggs,' the great formation uses its own energy to open up small spatial gaps, and then wraps them with eggshells. Since there is no energy flow, of course they will be fine."
"If you touch these eggshells, you won't be transported to another dimension, but the parts you touch will be cut, and the cut will be more powerful than the sharpest knife in the world."
"Yaoyao, you didn't observe carefully! Before, when I threw fragments to break the 'space egg,' they disappeared along with the fragments. But it's different now. Now the space is directly shut down. That is, the eggshell disappears, and then the part of the fragment that first came into contact with it disappears. Sometimes, a part is even left in this world. Didn't you see that?"
"Oh," Lin Yao said, embarrassed, and quickly added, "That's good, Xiao Cao is the best!"
"Alright, enough of this nonsense. Let's take in 'Dancing Robe'. Otherwise, it won't be able to control the great formation."
This time, Xiaocao wasn't arrogant. The 'dance costume' in front of her was within her grasp. At this moment, she had no time to chat with Lin Yao. Her mind was full of thoughts about how much she would evolve after absorbing the 'dance costume's' essence and spirit.
Seeing that the enemy's methods had dashed its hopes, 'Maiyi' no longer harbored any illusions. It couldn't outrun the enemy in terms of speed, and it was far inferior in terms of strength. Originally, its innate abilities were to create clones and hide, but unfortunately, it had been hiding in the underwater dome of the Bermuda Triangle. Just when it was about to evolve, a nemesis arrived.
It's my destined calamity!
But it was not willing to give up!
The concealment ability in this area has failed. Otherwise, it could have easily disappeared in front of the enemy, then calmly left to find another place to cultivate.
But……
Ancient beings, whose existence was unknown, were about to burn their very essence in a desperate attempt, only to be surprised to find that their idea of burning their essence was nothing but wishful thinking.
"Soul Binding Technique" is a powerful weapon to stop suicide. Dika had tried all the witchcraft he had learned before he was lucky enough to encounter the power of "Soul Binding Technique". Now, Xiaocao imitated him and used it, making it even more powerful.
"Wuyi" committed suicide, and there was no further news.
"burst!"
Abandoning everything and determined not to leave anything for the enemy, the 'Dance Robe', which was over seventy meters tall, suddenly stopped and disintegrated into millions of fragments that shot out in all directions.
"I'll take it!"
The grass instantly sprouted countless tentacles; she could have as many of these tentacles as she needed, as they were only used for binding and didn't require fighting.
However, once these small seaweed-like fragments come into contact with other objects, they will dissolve into them, which will inevitably destroy their spirituality and value as alchemical materials, thus catching the little grass somewhat off guard.
"Yaoyao, hurry and put it into the big cauldron! I can't handle it all!"
"good!"
"receive!"
Lin Yao shouted loudly, urging all his true energy to gather the 'seaweed' around him into the cauldron.
From then on, the origin and spirit of the 'Dancing Robe' were devoured by the grass, and its main body separated into countless small 'kelp' which were collected into the cauldron by Lin Yao. The ancient creature that had achieved great success in cultivation perished.

On June 12, 2016, summer arrived silently in the Northern Hemisphere.
