"Young Master, watch carefully and rember this spot." Lin Feng pressed a specific position on the fake rock mountain. Suddenly, the ground trembled again, and the surrounding fake rocks seed to co alive and moved in different directions. When everything cald down, a door suddenly appeared on the previously empty backyard wall.
"Young Master, in front of you is the core of the Dragon Gate Great Array." Lin Feng and Su Lie said in unison.
Song Xiaodong walked through the gate, discovering he was walking on flat stone steps with water all around him. As he continued forward, the sound of the waterfall grew louder, and Song Xiaodong realized he was strolling through spring water atop the mountain.
Song Xiaodong turned back to speak with the two Elders, only to find that they remained outside the gate.
"Young Master, this is the Dragon Gate Forbidden Area, only you can enter," Lin Feng said, his expression solemn and reverent.
Song Xiaodong's won also stood in a line, craning their heads forward.
"The Dragon Gate Great Array's core will recognize its master. Once the Young Master drips a drop of blood into the core, he will be able to control the array," Su Lie reminded him.
Song Xiaodong proceeded along the narrow steps, gradually reaching the center of the mountain spring.
Song Xiaodong saw a platform half the height of a person at the spring's center. As he approached, he discovered it was a cylindrical stone platform emitting a faint green glow. The top of the stone platform was concave, with a hole in the middle, wide at the top and narrowing toward the bottom.
Song Xiaodong peered into the hole and found water, with an incredibly thin silver needle suspended within, its other end embedded unseen.
Song Xiaodong reached out to touch the silver needle, giving it a gentle flick.
Just as Song Xiaodong thought there was no reaction and breathed a sigh of relief, a series of deep, rumbling sounds emanated from beneath, reminiscent of an earthquake from deep within the earth's crust. The tranquil water surface beca lined with ripples, and the won observing from the yard entrance frowned.
"Wow, I just touched it, does it really have to react this strongly?" Song Xiaodong muttered internally, noting how his won never reacted so intensely to his touch.
Everyone distinctly felt an overwhelming pressure from below. Seeing everyone on edge, Lin Feng explained, "There's no need to panic. The Dragon Gate Great Array covers the entire island, so so commotion when activating the array is normal. Once Young Master drips a drop of blood into the stone platform's water, he will be able to restart the array, officially succeeding as Sect Leader."
Song Xiaodong did not hesitate, took out his silver needle from his body, pricked his left index finger, and squeezed out a drop of blood onto the water surface in the stone platform's hole.
The blood dropped into the water, slowly dissolving, and suddenly seed to have a life of its own. It gradually approached the silver needle in the water, then re-ford into a blood droplet, sliding down the silver needle into the unseen depths below.
After waiting a long ti, Song Xiaodong suddenly felt a palpitation, sensing the ssage from an unknown ancient life form.
"I thought, you have finally lost the legacy, but not unexpectedly."
In an instant, Song Xiaodong understood the secret of the Dragon Gate Great Array.
The entire island manifested an inexplicable transformation, as the previously lifeless island suddenly seed to burst with vitality. Flocks of birds startled, and the chirping insects fell silent.
Everyone felt the indescribable change, and Lin Feng and Su Lie knew it was a sign the Dragon Gate Great Array was finally operating again.
Song Xiaodong walked back along the steps to the small gate of the backyard, where Lin Feng and Su Lie bowed in greeting, "Greetings, Sect Leader!
