Chapter 835: Chapter 645 Gradually Arriving
Outside the array, only the continuous roar can be heard, and the spirit light bursting from the clashes can be faintly seen through layers of water light!
"This array seems quite strong, to be able to withstand for so long!"
"Withstanding longer is useless; quite a few Radiant Moon masters went in earlier, along with the True Yang Sect’s Purple and Blue Double Swords!"
"That’s true... but somehow, I feel like something unexpected might happen."
"You’re overthinking. Be prepared. When this array is broken, let’s see what treasures are inside."
"..."
Outside, the crowd watched the array in shock, secretly preparing themselves, waiting for the array to break.
Only Gongsun Yue remained silent in place, looking quite heavy-hearted.
Ji Yi also displayed a thoughtful expression; the battle was so fierce, he didn’t know how things were inside the array.
Logically speaking, Xu Chang and Gao Ge’s combined sword technique should be formidable, along with Mo Yanqing from Qiankun Sect dispersing the array’s firepower, perhaps they could indeed overcome the sixth-level array and deal with that person...
However, Ji Yi looking into the array, couldn’t help but frown.
"I don’t know why; even though Xu Chang and others are quite strong, it still seems insufficient... and this layered Water System Array, its purpose is unknown."
Just as Ji Yi was pondering, afar in the sky, brilliance flashed, and a line of people arrived.
Ji Yi’s pupils shrank: "Tai Shang Sect’s Yan Chibei, Yixian Dao’s Hua Jifeng?"
Many figures flew down, led by the stout male, one of Tai Shang Sect’s four core Radiant Moon members—Yan Chibei!
Yan Chibei descended with Tai Shang Sect disciples, many Star Card Masters around subconsciously made way.
It wasn’t just because there weren’t many Radiant Moon masters left in the field, but because Tai Shang Sect faintly held the position of Southern Continent’s top Major Sect, their power was truly overwhelming!
Yan Chibei glanced at the array ahead, just about to speak with Hua Jifeng when Gongsun Yue’s eyes brightened and immediately approached.
"Loose Cultivator Gongsun Yue, greetings Yan Daoist." Gongsun Yue cupped his hands in salute.
Yan Chibei examined Gongsun Yue, unacquainted with him.
However, Hua Jifeng was surprisingly: "Iron Plate Ghost Gongsun Yue?"
Gongsun Yue nodded: "Indeed, it’s me."
Yan Chibei had heard the name, slightly nodded: "So it’s Gongsun Daoist, what matter does Daoist have?"
Gongsun Yue solemnly said: "Someone here is trying to destroy the Earth Veins. If not stopped, it could lead to the collapse of this realm.
Though not in our Southern Continent, it’s on Blue Sea Star, such actions are truly disruptive to the heavenly harmony and justice!"
Yan Chibei chuckled lightly, spoke to Hua Jifeng: "Friend Hua, Gongsun Daoist says the same as you, unexpectedly someone is bold enough to offend everyone!"
Hua Jifeng nodded: "Gongsun Daoist and I deduced similarly, based on the changes in Earth Qi, it seems it could be completed in a few days."
Gongsun Yue pleaded again: "Yan Daoist, being Tai Shang Sect’s core, I hope you can take the lead in preventing this."
Yan Chibei smiled: "Rest assured, Gongsun Daoist, since I’m here, I won’t allow this to happen."
Not just Supreme Dao, people from various sects, factions entered, and found some fifth-level materials capable of creating Legendary Star Devices!
This kind of treasure land, before it is fully exploited... how could they allow anyone to destroy the Star Veins?
Yan Chibei looked at the continuously roaring large array and asked: "What’s the current situation?"
Gongsun Yue’s expression darkened: "Earlier, True Yang Sect’s Purple and Blue Double Swords and Qiankun Sect’s Friend Mo Yanqing went in, but in my view... I’m afraid it’s bad news."
"Purple and Blue Double Swords..." Yan Chibei mused, then called out, "Junior Brother Luo."
From among the Tai Shang Sect members behind Yan Chibei, a tall and handsome young man stepped forward, cupped his hands: "Senior Brother."
Yan Chibei asked: "When you previously went to True Yang Sect to borrow True Sun Fire to temper sword instruments, you seemed to have sparred with Purple and Blue Double Swords. How strong are these two?"
The tall young man replied: "Friend Xu and Friend Gao, their individual strength is limited, but together even I find it difficult to defeat them in a short time; it took me over a hundred rounds to luckily overcome them."
Gongsun Yue was quite surprised looking at Luo Wen Zhen: "This one, could it be Luo Wen Zhen of Upper Pure Three Sword Styles?"
The tall young man smiled: "Indeed, it’s me."
Gongsun Yue’s pupils shrank, Luo Wen Zhen, Tai Shang Sect’s rising top genius in the past two years!
Previously unremarkable, after breaking through the Full Moon Stage, he comprehended the Upper Pure Sword Technique’s three sword style, his strength soared.
Alongside the newly advanced Mu Kexian, they are considered the geniuses most likely to advance to the core within two years.
"I see... these two do have some strength." Yan Chibei nodded, then his gaze fell on Ji Yi in front of the array.
Ji Yi instantly felt an immense pressure, hurriedly flew forward, cupped his hands: "Five Directions Temple’s Ji Yi, greetings Brother Yan."
Joking aside, Yan Chibei, being Tai Shang Sect’s veteran core, under Burning Sun he is considered the pinnacle of existence.
Even his own senior brother must respectfully call him Brother Dao, let alone himself.
Red glow surged in Yan Chibei’s eyes, soon settled on Ji Yi’s chest: "I see Daoist seems to be under someone’s control?"
Ji Yi smiled bitterly: "Brother Dao judges rightly, I am cursed, only here to pass messages for those inside the array."
Yan Chibei nodded slightly, changed subject: "What’s the message?"
Ji Yi glanced at Yan Chibei and others: "If you wish to enter the array, bear the consequences of life and death."
Before Yan Chibei could speak, a sharp-faced female cultivator next to him couldn’t help but interject.
"Heh, such big talk, you think this alone can intimidate us!"
Ji Yi saw the person and his expression slightly tensed, it was Radiant Moon expert ranked in the top ten of the Taishang Sect, Brilliant Thunder Double Stab Li Furong!
Luo Wenzhen chuckled, "Senior Sister Li, anyone who dares to touch the Tiger Vein is certainly no ordinary person."
Yan Chibei also showed some interest, smiling, "Now, I’m even more curious about who exactly this mysterious figure is."
At that moment, Hua Jifeng suddenly sensed something, and quickly began divination with his right hand.
Very soon, Hua Jifeng’s expression changed, and he whispered to Yan Chibei, "Brother Yan, the people here might be related to Friend Li!"
"Oh? Really..." Yan Chibei squinted his eyes slightly, "I never thought, after not finding anything for half a day earlier, we would get a clue at this moment!"
Previously, after noticing Li Huasheng’s death, Yan Chibei had found Hua Jifeng.
The death of a core disciple of the Taishang Sect was no small matter, moreover, Li Huasheng was a newly appointed core disciple last year, mastering legendary skills and freedom dao skill, with a limitless future garnering much attention!
Upon hearing this, Luo Wenzhen and Li Furong behind them also had a glint of cold light in their eyes.
Luo Wenzhen squinted slightly and laughed, "In that case, we must kill him!"
Hua Jifeng reminded, "As far as I know, this person is only directly related to Friend Li’s death, he may not be the one who killed Friend Li.
Based on divination, I suspect he might have been working with others to kill Friend Li!"
Li Furong snorted coldly, "I knew it, with Senior Brother Li’s skills, how could he suddenly be killed by others, it turns out he was besieged by multiple culprits!
Brother Yan, let’s go, killing this culprit will also avenge Senior Brother Li!"
Yan Chibei, however, said calmly, "No rush, this is not the Southern Continent, we are not the only ones, there are also people from the North Continent and the East Continent."
Li Furong said anxiously, "But..."
At that moment, the rumbling within the formation suddenly came to an abrupt halt.
"Hmm?"
Not only the Taishang Sect people, but everyone immediately looked toward it.
Luo Wenzhen chuckled lightly, "Looks like there’s no need for us to step in, it’s already been resolved."
"No... it hasn’t." Yan Chibei’s eyes gleamed red, narrowing, "It’s Xu Chang and those others who are dead."
"Oh?" Luo Wenzhen responded, squinting his eyes slightly, "More formidable than expected..."
Ji Yi’s heart leaped, the person inside indeed won!
The other cultivators nearby were even more shocked, it was unimaginable that so many experts, led by the Purple and Blue Double Swords, went in together only to all be annihilated, not even able to escape!
"How is it possible, so many experts couldn’t take down this array?"
"Perhaps, there is more than one enemy inside!"
"Indeed..."
Gongsun Yue shook his head and sighed, "So it’s true!"
Yan Chibei also recognized the formation’s extraordinariness, and after pondering briefly, said to Hua Jifeng, "Fellow Daoist Hua, could you check this formation?"
"Alright!"
Hua Jifeng responded, immediately stepping forward to inspect the formation carefully.
"Star Power and Water Element Star Power..."
"It seems like two formations..."
"..."
After a while, Hua Jifeng suddenly exclaimed, "Unexpectedly, the person inside is an Array Master!"
Yan Chixia was surprised, "Oh? Are you saying it’s a Grandmaster-level Formation, Friend Hua?"
Hua Jifeng nodded, praising, "Exactly! A Grandmaster-level attacking formation that can harness Star Power, and additionally overlaying a Fifth Level Mysterious Array that can obscure probing and alter directions, leaving those who enter defenseless!
Even at the Waning Moon stage, once inside, there is almost no resistance.
Unless the number of people is enough to share the energy limit of the formation, otherwise even if ten or twenty people enter, they are just sitting ducks!"
Everyone on the scene was greatly astonished.
"So powerful?!"
"No wonder..." Ji Yi understood why Xu Chang and the others were still defeated, realizing the effective combatants were only the Purple and Blue Double Swords and Mo Yanqing, the rest were just cannon fodder?
Yan Chibei asked, "Is there a way to break the formation?"
Hua Jifeng shook his head, smiling wryly, "If my senior brother Bu Xiangtian were here, there might be a way, but I’m afraid I’m powerless."
Bu Xiangtian, one of the two genius Array Masters under Burning Sun in the Yixian Dao.
Yan Chibei murmured, "Is that so..."
Li Furong immediately said, "Senior Brother, even if it’s a Grandmaster-level Formation, we have the confidence to fully contain it, allowing you to capture the person inside at will."
Luo Wenzhen shook his head, "Not advisable, even though we can withstand this formation, it’s not a good idea."
"He intends to target the Tiger Vein, it’s not just our affair." Yan Chibei looked into the formation and smiled faintly, "Just wait, this is only the beginning..."
