Xu Mu and his group landed outside what looked like an ancient city. Behind them stood a massive city gate.
Before their eyes was an endless army of skeletons.
They wielded a variety of weapons, and flames flickered within their eye sockets.
With a clattering sound of bones, they charged toward Xu Mu and the others.
"Don't panic. Things like this can't possibly exist in the real world, so this must be an illusion array."
Xu Mu took a few steps forward. "Let me test how real it is first."
With that, he dashed toward the skeleton army. One of the skeletons wielding a giant axe swung it straight at Xu Mu's head.
Xu Mu simply reached out his hand to catch it.
Clang!
A loud crash echoed, and the earth trembled slightly.
Xu Mu frowned slightly. He conjured an illusionary sword and swung it out, shattering the skeleton to pieces.
He then retreated back to the group.
"Brother Mu, are you alright?"
Meng Wanyue asked with concern.
"I'm fine. This array is highly advanced. It's not just an illusion array, but a combination of an illusion and an attack array."
Xu Mu pointed at the skeletons and said, "They can inflict real damage on us."
"If that's the case, what are we waiting for?"
Dai Xingluo broke into a radiant smile. She drew her longsword from its sheath and sprinted forward.
Swish, swish, swish!
Her graceful figure darted through the skeletons, and wherever she passed, the undead were sliced to pieces.
"Hehehe! Brother, hacking away at these things feels so good!"
Dai Xingluo laughed as she fought.
However, she alone couldn't possibly hold back such a massive army.
Seeing this, Meng Wanyue also joined the fray.
Jiang Huihui laughed, "Killing these things doesn't give me any psychological pressure at all. I'm going in too!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she walked up to the skeletons with her hands in her pockets and unleashed a sweeping kick.
Boom!
A terrifying force erupted in a fan shape, flattening the entire group of skeletons in front of her.
Only Xu Mu and Chen Xuan remained standing where they were.
"Brother Mu, this isn't good. Look at those skeletons."
Chen Xuan pointed with a solemn expression at the scattered, shattered bones ahead.
After being defeated, the broken bones turned pitch-black and completely evaporated, along with the weapons they held.
Meanwhile, from the black mist at the rear of the skeleton army, an endless stream of new skeletons seemed to be emerging.
"The purpose of this array isn't to kill us instantly, but to wear us down."
Xu Mu nodded slightly.
Right now, the three women were fighting fiercely, but if this continued, their Qi would eventually be completely depleted.
When that happened, they might not even have a chance to react against this army.
"Brother Mu, what should we do?"
Chen Xuan asked.
"Don't panic. Let me make a draw... wait, no, let me draw back for a moment and think."
Xu Mu had accumulated another ten-draw. He had earned it when Ye Tong gathered all those women at their house.
Although Ye Tong couldn't provide points directly, she had doubled the total Justice Points of the rest of the group.
He was currently an Intermediate Array Master. If he could draw the Advanced Array Master skill, the current situation would be easily resolved.
Though the chances of that happening were impossibly slim.
"Alright!"
Chen Xuan nodded slightly. "Rest assured, I won't let these skeletons get near you."
Xu Mu smiled, opened his system panel, and placed his hand on the roulette wheel.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 Cultivation Points]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Master Calligrapher Certificate]
"?"
Xu Mu was a bit dumbfounded. It had been a long time since he had drawn something like this.
To say it was useful... well, it did have some use.
But right now, it was completely useless.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 Cultivation Points]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20 Attribute Points]
...
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 Cultivation Points]
Xu Mu felt a bit helpless. Usually, the guaranteed pity drops would yield some weird and bizarre items.
Today, when he actually wanted something else, everything was just basic guaranteed drops, except for that calligrapher certificate.
However, the basic drops were still of great use, so Xu Mu added all the points to his own stats.
This time, he gained 180 Cultivation Points and 100 Attribute Points. After allocating them, he could clearly feel the changes in his body.
He checked his personal panel.

"Brother Mu! Have you thought of a plan yet? These skeletons are endless."
Chen Xuan asked while continuously slaying skeletons.
Looking at the skeletons and the mass of black mist in the deepest part of the area, Xu Mu smiled and said, "Give me a moment."
As he spoke, Xu Mu crouched on the ground, and array patterns began to surface on his body.
He was currently casting a Level 5 Array: the Binding Array.
Since he was an Intermediate Array Master, a Level 5 Array was something he had completely mastered.
To an outsider, it might look like Xu Mu was just scribbling randomly at an incredible speed.
However, the array Xu Mu cast could only be described as perfect.
"You guys, get over here to me quickly!"
Xu Mu shouted to the girls fighting in the distance.
Hearing the command, everyone swiftly retreated behind Xu Mu.
"Xu Mu, what is it?"
Jiang Huihui asked immediately, panting slightly from the exertion.
"No need to rush."
Xu Mu said softly as he watched the massive army of skeletons swarming in from the distance.
The skeletons advanced in hordes, stepping right into the formation Xu Mu had set up.
Xu Mu immediately activated the formation.
Buzz!
A circular formation, over twenty meters in diameter, suddenly flared to life. Silvery-white lines snaked upward from the ground.
In an instant, all the skeletons within the area were tightly entangled, completely immobilized.
"Brother! Just how many skills have you mastered?"
Dai Xingluo looked at Xu Mu, her face beaming with pleasant surprise.
[Affection +10]
Meng Wanyue couldn't help but widen her eyes as well. As expected of Brother Mu.
[Affection +10]
Jiang Huihui was utterly shocked. During the previous martial arts marriage tournament, Xu Mu had only showcased his alchemy skills. She never expected him to be proficient in formations as well.
[Affection +10]
Chen Xuan's expression remained unchanged. After all, this was Brother Mu. In his eyes, it was completely normal for Xu Mu to know every trick in the book.
"Just as I suspected. The total number of these skeletons is fixed. No matter how many you kill, the exact same amount will spawn from the black mist over there. The only thing we can do is trap them."
While speaking, Xu Mu quickly carved out two more binding formations on the ground.
The mindless skeletons, knowing nothing but combat, were almost entirely trapped. Only a few remained, but Xu Mu refrained from killing them, opting instead to toss them directly into the formations.
Sure enough, their surroundings returned to a peaceful state, and no more skeletons emerged from the dark mist.
"Brother Mu, as expected of you..."
Before Chen Xuan could finish his sentence, a black hole suddenly materialized beneath Xu Mu's feet, and he instantly plummeted into it.
Immediately afterward, the ground returned to normal.
...
"What a beautiful formation. Every single rune and character on it is breathtakingly exquisite. To carve out three level-five binding formations in such a short amount of time... you truly are a genius."
A long-haired woman clad in leather looked down at Xu Mu, who was sitting on the floor. Her purple eyes curved into smiling crescents.
Xu Mu finally snapped back to his senses. Looking around, he realized he was inside a massive building. The surrounding walls were adorned with numerous scrolls of calligraphy and paintings, though the written works far outnumbered the illustrations.
"Did you pull me out of the formation?"
Xu Mu patted the dust off his backside.
"That's right. I'm quite curious, who is your master? How are you able to carve such perfectly structured runes and characters?"
The woman asked with a smile.
"It has nothing to do with a master. First of all, you need a good brush."
Xu Mu paused for a moment before continuing, "Then, you trace. After tracing for a while, you copy it freehand over and over again. Once you've worn out your brush from writing so much, your characters and runes will naturally become flawless."
"Hehehe!"
The woman covered her mouth, giggling. "You have such an interesting way of speaking. I'd love to keep you by my side, but all the men around me are eunuchs."
