Chapter 459: Luring the Enemy into a Trap!
Peerless Medicine God · 第459章 请君入瓮!
He Jun's move was not as spectacular as Liao Wenguang's, but it was like a shot of adrenaline, instantly boosting the confidence of the Zichen Sect disciples.
He Jun was the only other fourth-rank array master in the Southern Domain!
Before today, Zhou Yun's name had resounded throughout the Southern Domain, as he was the sole fourth-rank array master!
However, Zhou Yun was only a fourth-rank初级 array master.
But He Jun was a fourth-rank中级 array master!
If even He Jun could not break the great array before them, then no one in the Southern Domain could!
The Zichen Sect disciples held their breath, watching He Jun's every move intently, afraid that even a sound might disturb his array-breaking.
As soon as the primal power released from the yellow flag in He Jun's hand touched the great array, it was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly rippling outward.
The great array suddenly blazed with light, as if trying to break free from this primal power.
He Jun sneered, "The Seven-Colored Phantom Moon Flags are a hundred-and-twenty-eight-seal spirit tool, and also my life-bound spirit tool. Even a fourth-rank高级 array master cannot shake them off! Be good, it'll be over soon."
He Jun continuously released primal power, firmly entangling the great array.
After a moment, He Jun's gaze sharpened, and he urged his primal power to shoot out the yellow flag.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound rang out as the yellow flag embedded itself deeply into a rock not far away.
As if wounded, the great array's light instantly dimmed considerably!
"Hahaha, Elder He is mighty!"
"Elder He truly deserves the title of fourth-rank array master; breaking this array is as easy as taking something from his pocket!"
"The Nethercloud Sect has been too arrogant before us. Did you see that stone tablet? This time, Elder He has finally slapped their faces! Once Elder He breaks the array, I will smash that stone tablet to pieces!"
Seeing the great array loosen, the Zichen Sect disciples were all extremely excited.
Especially those who had come last time; they had been too suppressed these past days.
The invincible Zichen Sect had not even dared to breathe loudly before the weakest Nethercloud Sect—how shameful!
Now that the array was likely to be broken by He Jun, they all felt a strong urge to release their pent-up frustration.
He Jun himself was very calm. He took out another green flag, performed the same technique, and embedded it into a giant tree.
This time, the great array's light dimmed a bit more.
The Zichen Sect disciples were even more thrilled, as if injected with stimulant.
They all rubbed their hands together, eager to be the first to charge into the Nethercloud Sect!
Even Liao Wenguang's eyes gleamed with light, as if he too was itching to try.
"Old He really has some skills. If I had listened to him earlier, I wouldn't have lost so much face," Liao Wenguang secretly regretted.
Meanwhile, inside the array hub, the Nethercloud Sect disciples looked grim.
Their formation was integrated with the great array, and they could deeply feel it being weakened, making them all very worried.
"Ye... Junior Brother Ye, is... is this alright? The array... the array seems to be getting weaker!"
"Yes, Junior Brother Ye, don't be stingy with our primal power! Even if we are drained dry, it doesn't matter, as long as we can protect the array!"
"Junior Brother Ye, we are not afraid of death! If you need primal power, use it freely; I won't even frown!"
The Nethercloud Sect disciples spoke to Ye Yuan in a flurry, each looking death in the face, ready to die for the sect.
Ye Yuan turned back and said with a faint smile, "Fellow disciples, rest assured. When it's time to use your primal power, I won't hold back. But... we haven't reached the end of the road yet. There's no need for such despair; everything is under control."
The Nethercloud Sect disciples exchanged glances, seeing excitement in each other's eyes.
It wasn't that they didn't trust Ye Yuan, but the Zichen Sect's strength was truly overwhelming.
Moreover, they could clearly feel the array being weakened, which caused their anxiety.
But Ye Yuan's single sentence calmed all their hearts.
Now, Ye Yuan had that ability.
...
He Jun had a total of seven flags, each of a different color.
When the last cyan flag was inserted into a position, the light emitted by the great array was weakened to its extreme, like a person severely injured.
But it was only severely injured; the great array did not collapse.
Moreover, the array seemed to have a spirit; its light flickered on and off, struggling even more violently than before.
The seven flags showed signs of loosening.
He Jun dared not be careless. He pushed out both palms, and seven strands of primal power flowed from his palms, instantly connecting to the seven flags.
The seven flags quickly stabilized.
Seeing Liao Wenguang still in a daze, He Jun shouted, "What are you standing there for? Attack the array!"
Liao Wenguang snapped awake, and his primal power burst forth instantly.
This time, Liao Wenguang mobilized almost all the primal power he could, pouring it all into the Blood Drinking Blade.
The Blood Drinking Blade instantly emitted an extremely dazzling red light, and a terrifying aura rippled outward.
"Break for me!"
Liao Wenguang swung his long blade, and a fearsome attack surged toward the great array!
"Boom!"
Rubble flew, and a large area around the mountain gate was almost leveled!
The power of this strike was too strong!
"Elder He is mighty!"
"Elder Liao is mighty!"
"Kill! Kill all the Nethercloud Sect people, avenge Elder Ma Yi!"
Seeing this, the Zichen Sect disciples were so excited they could jump for joy.
Many disciples rushed toward the mountain gate, wanting to charge into the Nethercloud Sect.
However, the expressions on He Jun and Liao Wenguang's faces did not turn excited; instead, they became solemn.
Liao Wenguang's strike just now had encountered no resistance, as if it had passed straight through the great array!
But He Jun had just said he couldn't break this array!
What... what was going on?
He Jun was the first to react, his face changing dramatically as he shouted to Liao Wenguang, "Not good! We've been tricked! Run!"
Liao Wenguang was stunned, then his face also changed drastically.
Because at that moment, the great array suddenly blazed with intense light!
The dazzling light was even stronger than before—how could it show any sign of being suppressed?
Hundreds of streams of light shot out from the great array, speeding toward He Jun and Liao Wenguang!
Liao Wenguang knew all too well the power of these streams of light; he had nearly died under them just now!
Earlier, there had been only a few streams; now, there were hundreds!
Because of the array-breaking and the effect of He Jun's Seven-Colored Phantom Moon Flags, the two were now very close to the great array.
And Ye Yuan had been waiting for this moment!
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Violent explosions sounded before the Nethercloud Sect's mountain gate. The hundreds of streams of light were like thunderbolts descending from the sky, blasting the area before the gate beyond recognition.
After the explosions, there was dead silence before the Nethercloud Sect's mountain gate...
