"It's not just like a well, this is indeed a well. The Tunnel Armor Grandmaster is most skilled at setting up Taoist Arrays. This array is called the Dragon Prison Well, a Great Array that can only be achieved by the method of nine incense sticks."

"This old man has quite an eye."

A desolate voice came from the sky, ethereally. At the same time, the bodies of the five Tunnel Armor disciples who had been slain suddenly rose and flew up to seventy zhang in the air, where the five bodies converged into a flower.

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed as the five corpses simultaneously exploded, and the blood mist dispersed. When it cleared, a Taoist wearing a purple Daoist robe stood in the air with a turtle shell on his left hand in a "crane standing on one leg" posture.

He looked down condescendingly, and when he saw Yun Ziliang, his willow leaf-shaped eyebrows, slightly tinted with rouge, furrowed, and he said, "I thought Mingjiang Prefecture was full of experts. Any random old mountain man or old Taoist on the street could see through my magic skill. But upon closer inspection, it turns out to be the Cloud Mountain Man from three hundred years ago — Mr. Yun.

According to the legends, Mr. Yun once sensed the Dragon Seeking Qi with four incense sticks and hid several Big Dragons within himself, sweeping invincibly through the Taoist world. It's a pity I, Zhao Qingxiao, was born fifty years too late, otherwise, I'd love to compete with you, Mr. Yun, to see if my well can trap your dragon,

or if your dragon can break my well."

"Bah! If I were still at the peak of nine incense sticks, I could break this broken well with one hand."

Yun Ziliang's love of face flared again. He might lose the array but not his tongue; it was his old tradition.

In fact, facing the nine incense stick Dragon Prison Well, Yun Ziliang truly lacked complete confidence to break it.

Though across the world of Taoism, all roads lead to the same destination, between the sects, there's a notion of counteraction.

Tunnel Armor and Dragon Seeking, these two Taoist sects, have a relatively special relationship. It's not absolute restraint, but in duels, the terrain is crucially important for the outcome.

Tunnel Armor is renowned for "magic and arrays," so they are called Great Mages. If the terrain is complex, with many alleyways and streets, it facilitates the application of their Taoist Techniques.

Dragon Seeking is famous for the Dragon Qi of "heaven and earth, nature." The Taoists honor them as Dragon Seeking Celestial Masters, able to fully exhibit their skills in the mountains and rivers, vast plains, and deep valleys.

East Market Street belongs to the former, so even if Yun Ziliang had nine incense sticks and dueled with Zhao Yunxiao, who also had nine incense sticks, Yun Ziliang would likely still lose due to the unfavorable terrain.

"Breaking my Dragon Prison Well with one hand? Mr. Yun, you are arrogant."

Zhao Qingxiao didn't truly pay attention to Yun Ziliang. His purpose here was singular, to capture the White Fox with the Four Boundaries Earth Law and bring it back to the Capital Mansion, handing it over to the Tunnel Armor Ancestor.

For the sake of this White Fox, he had no choice but to heed the advice of the Wansese Realm at the last moment and enter this Heaven and Earth chess game.

"I have no time to bicker with you, old man. The White Fox in the street, listen well. You possess the Four Boundaries Earth Law, and in East Market Street, due to a climate-formed Big Dragon, the feng shui is extraordinary.

You can manipulate the feng shui here to hide yourself in the street, making it hard for many Taoist sects to find you. But I'm different. This array is called Dragon Prison; it may not be an Ancestor Dragon, yet even if it were the Mingjiang Ancestor Dragon, I could imprison and lock it. Counting on the Big Dragon to help you is but a delusion."

Zhao Qingxiao's words irked Yun Ziliang, who mocked, "Don't boast too much, young Daoist. If a single nine incense sticks Dragon Prison Well could imprison an Ancestor Dragon, then the Ancestor Dragons of the nine prefectures of Jing Country would all be under your control. Your Qingtian Dao would be defying the heavens!"

When it comes to Taoist power,

In Jing Country, Heavenly Eye Temple is first, Tunnel Armor's Qingtian Temple is second, and Dragon Seeking's Yunlong Temple is third.

The gap between the third and the first and second is quite wide. But because of the existence of the nine great Ancestor Dragons of Jing Country, the Yunlong Temple of the Dragon Seeking Hall is the main reason the first two Daoist temples cannot underestimate it.

"On ordinary days, I couldn't imprison the Ancestor Dragon, but in this chess game, it's a different story."

"Step on the Seven Stars, and the Well Word suppresses the Dragon."

Zhao Qingxiao followed the "Beidou Seven Star layout," stepping continuously.

The tip of his left foot lightly touched the "Shaking Light Star Position." His body was like a clumsy fluttering leaf, with both feet landing on the Kaiyang Star and Jade Balance Star Positions. Then both feet exerted force simultaneously, with his right foot stabbing forward into the "Heavenly Authority Star Position," consecutively tapping the Heavenly Pivot Star, Heavenly Spin Star, and Heavenly Jade Star Positions.

After tapping the seven Star Positions, a clear "Beidou Star Map" appeared above the well.

The Star Map emitted a faint light, causing the whole great well to rotate like a massive grinding stone, rumbling. The earth of East Market Street shook violently, Lv Mingkun, the three foxes, and Yun Ziliang continuously adjusted their positions, barely managing not to fall.

A dreadful roar of the Dragon God came from the underground as the great well ravaged and crushed the subterranean Dragon God.

Yun Ziliang was astonished by this momentum, saying, "How is it so powerful?"

He was a genius in the Dragon Seeking world, having competed with the elites of Heavenly Eye Temple and Qingtian Temple, and had witnessed the "Prison Well" with his own eyes, narrowly winning over the Tunnel Armor Grandmaster by relying on the terrain.

However, the "Prison Well" back then, released by human hands with nine incense sticks, was far less formidable than today.

Yun Ziliang pondered and soon figured it out—it was due to the added power of the Dragon Prison Well in this Heaven and Earth chess game,

causing this well to suddenly erupt with the force capable of imprisoning the Ancestor Dragon.
