Chapter 302: Chapter 274: Soul Extinguishing Needle 1
Li Cheng raced across the sky, following the markings on the map when indeed, he came across a Natural Array.
It was a natural maze. Following the method described by Yin Qingshan, Li Cheng easily passed through.
But just past the maze, several miles ahead, there was another one!
If he had the time, Li Cheng could have deciphered it with Enlightenment, but time was what he lacked now. Moreover, breaking through an Array wasn’t a skill-based task, and Enlightenment couldn’t be used to simplify it.
Instead, Li Cheng grabbed a Divine Child from his tripod. This was a Heaven
God from the Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold, who would surely know how to navigate the maze before them.
As soon as the Divine Child appeared and saw Li Cheng, he bowed without hesitation, “Please show mercy, fellow Daoist, I was but following orders…” “Enough, do you see the maze ahead?” Li Cheng cut him off.
The Divine Child turned to look, “It’s the only way to the stronghold. Do you intend to go to Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold?”
“Lead the way!”
The Divine Child’s expression changed. Was he truly going?
This was wonderful news! The First Master and Second Master were usually in the stronghold. If this man went there, he was walking straight into a trap!
He was saved!
But the Divine Child didn’t know both Masters had already led a large group to Hidden Spirit Village.
The Divine Child put in a great effort. “Stay close, Fellow Daoist. This is a natural maze. One wrong step could trap you for a thousand, even ten thousand years.”
Since Li Cheng was heading to Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold to be captured, the Divine Child, of course, wanted to guide him well!
Once we get through this Array, Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold is less than ten thousand miles ahead. It’s a lone peak. It’s not tall, but it’s covered by a no- fly Array, so you can only walk up from the front.” As he led the way, the Divine Child started to provide information.
Li Cheng guessed the Divine Child’s intentions but didn’t point them out, allowing him to guide the way.
After leaving the maze, the image of Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold was already in Li Cheng’s Divine Sense. Indeed, as described, the stronghold sat atop a lone peak, surrounded by cliffs on three sides, with only one approachable path.
“This solitary peak was forged by the great divine power of the First Master, who also hired an Array Master to set up a no-fly Array. You can only walk up,” the Divine Child said with a light cough.
Li Cheng casually tossed the Divine Child back into the tripod, encompassing himself in his Domain, and hurried toward Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold.
After surveying the outskirts of Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold, Li Cheng nodded to himself in approval, preparing to set up the Hidden Spirit Array to envelop the entire mountain.
With a Divine Artifact inserted, he would be able to activate the Hidden Spirit Array.
Li Cheng had no intention of going up the mountain right now, as he still sensed the presence of over a dozen Heaven God State powerhouses there.
Shrouded by his Domain, even the Heaven Gods couldn’t detect Li Cheng with their Divine Senses. Soon, the Array was set up, and Li Cheng retreated swiftly.
In Hidden Spirit Village, the two Masters, with their group of over four hundred people, launched attack after attack.
But the Hidden Spirit Array was incredibly resilient. Despite being bombarded until the Array Light Membrane twisted, it held firm.
Blade, the First Master, watched the others throw their might into it, his brows knitting together, “It seems the Array Master who set up this second-grade Divine Array is extraordinary. We can’t break through!”
Blade Edge, the Second Master, nodded, “We’ve been attacking with full force for an hour. Continuing will yield no results. Should I ask for that person in the city?”
“Even if he doesn’t understand the Hidden Spirit Array, he may be able to find a weak point, right? With him here, we’ll surely break through the Array!”
Blade pondered, then shook his head, “That man will surely ask for a hefty
price. Let’s think of another way first.”
Blade Edge gave a bitter smile, “Hidden Spirit Village remains out of reach, and we can’t break their Array. They have the Divine Field inside and no lack of food, so a siege is ineffective. Big brother, do we have any other option?”
Blade looked up at the slightly twisting Array, took a deep breath, and said, “Retreat. We go back. I have been stuck at the peak of Heaven God State for years; it’s time for me to use that treasure to break through!”
Blade Edge’s eyes lit up. If the First Master could break through to the True God status, he might have the power to break the Array on his own. Then, they could avenge their Third Brother!
As the order was given, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Many were exhausted, their Divine Power drained, and after an hour of effort, they could finally stop.
Seeing Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold preparing to retreat, the villagers of Hidden Spirit Village also relaxed.
To tell the truth, although the stronghold couldn’t break the Array, everytime it twisted, how could they not worry?
Yin Qingshan pondered, “We can’t let them go. We must delay for Brother Li!”
With that thought, Yin Qingshan swept to the edge of the Array and shouted, “Attacking my Hidden Spirit Village’s defensive Array for so long, and now you want to just walk away?”
The people from Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold, who were about to leave, immediately stopped in their tracks and turned to look.
Although they couldn’t see inside the Array, many recognized that this was the voice of the Hidden Spirit Village village head.
Blade, in a rage, yelled, “Yin Qingshan, you say? Roll out here!”
“Haha, I honestly don’t know how to roll. Maybe the First Master could demonstrate!” Yin Qingshan laughed back.
Whoosh!
Blade hurled the pitch-black Great Blade in his hand, imbued with immense Divine Power, slashing towards the source of the voice as if to pulverize all in its path.
Bang!
The Array Light Membrane surfaced again, blocking the Great Blade.
Blade caught the Great Blade, his face so dark it looked as if it could drip water, “The Hidden Spirit Array won’t protect you for long. Just wait, it won’t be long before I scatter the pieces of your entire village!”
If you ‘re so capable, First Master, why not give it a try now? I’m not someone who scares easily,” Yin Qingshan said contemptuously.
Big brother, something’s off. This old guy didn’t dare to speak out before. Now that he sees us leaving, he’s finally speaking up. He’s likely buying time!” Blade Edge seemed to realize something, and quickly spoke.
Blade frowned, “Indeed. But for what is he buying time? Is someone powerful coming to help them?”
