At first, he had no guarantee in his heart, but after seeing these irrational, wildly murderous monsters, he finally made up his mind.
âMy senior brothers, quickly flee.â
The Profound Darkness Sect expert who discovered the array bellowed, charging at the dozen or so monsters that were killing towards him.
Boom!
With a smack of his palm, the monsters were shattered into pieces, turning into beams of blood light and black fog. But they quickly reassembled, forming new monsters.
âDamn, these monsters canât be killed!â Hong Xingwu cursed loudly, feeling extremely stifled in the face of these weak monsters.
They were endless and undying, causing even more trouble than peak Rune
Seed Realm opponents.
Zhuang Ziyuan activated the Law River, creating a golden wall to shield a portion of the Demon Suppression Army within it. At the same time, his eyes flickered, showing thought as he gazed at the black Order Chains hanging from the void.
âNine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Array, a formation of the Nine Nether Demon Sect. How did it appear here, could it be that a master of the Nine Nether Demon Sect has come to assist?â
Although he knew of the Nine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Arrayâs existence, he didnât understand its full horror. However, its reputation was confirmed by its requirement of the sacrifice of tens of thousands of martial artists to get the array running, coupled with the Silent Plain serving as its excellent battlefield, its power mustnât be underestimated.
âAll of you, protect the Demon Extermination Guards under your command.â
Lu Yun instructed Ye Xuan and others.
He knew that all he could do at this moment was to minimize casualties as much as possible. Otherwise, even if the Profound Darkness Sect was utterly annihilated here, it would be a pyrrhic victory.
Moreover, if the Demon Suppression Army suffered heavy casualties, the power of the Nine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Array would undoubtedly increase.
By then, when the strength of the monsters in the array has reached a certain level, even the Black-rank or even Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals would not be able to preserve themselves.
A sword strike flew out, cutting dozens of monsters in half.
However, these creatures quickly reformed even with their limbs and heads severed.
âThis is bad, their strength is increasing too quickly. After a while, even we
wonât be a match for these monsters.â
Gu Yuan, Baili Yi and others were increasingly horrified as they battled the
monsters.
Some of the creatures, after continuously devouring the bodies of their kind, grew stronger rapidly. Even the Yellow-rank Demon Extermination Generals gradually failed to resist them.
âRetreat from the battlefield first!â
Lu Yun immediately made the decision and issued an order to Ye Xuan, Qing
Hou and others.
âButâ¦â Ye Xuan was just about to speak when he was silenced by Lu Yunâs wave of his hand.
âWhatever happens, this General will shoulder it alone.
Seeing Lu Yun speak in such a manner, Ye Xuan, Qing Hou and others stopped talking. They led the Demon Suppression Army under their command, broke through the heavy encirclement of monsters, and dashed to the outside, aiming to leave the range of the large array.
However, the great array almost covered the entire Silent Plain. The monsters were endless, and the more they killed, the greater their number and strength.
Whatâs more eerie was that after making a straight line for a certain distance, they strangely circled back to their starting point.
Seeing this, Lu Yun immediately used Instant Horizon, trying to teleport away from here.
However,
just as the ripple in the space appeared, it was immediately extinguished. The space here seemed to be confined by some force, making it impossible for him to leave.
âRoar.â
A dozen giant monsters roared and charged at Lu Yun. Lu Yun swung his Sky Brilliance Sword, and the monsters in front of him directly burst apart.
However, Lu Yun didnât feel the slightest bit of joy at this moment.
âGeneral, what should we do next?â
Qing Hou asked Lu Yun anxiously.
Now, they couldnât leave the array, and the strength of the surrounding monsters was increasing.
The strongest of the monsters even had the combat power of the Golden Body Realm.
If this continues, it wouldnât be long before monsters of the Rune Seed Realm
level would appear.
âDonât panic, you guys protect the others. Iâm going to see if I can break this
formation.â
Lu Yun flew into the sky, observing the situation around him.
At this time, the sky was blanketed with black fog, endless and infinite, limiting vision to no more than a ten-mile radius.
Soon, Lu Yun spotted Wei Zongcheng and the others, immediately leading Ye Xuan, Qing Hou, and others to join them.
âWhatâs the current situation? Why have so many monsters suddenly appeared?â Lu Yun asked.
Bai ChangFeng started, âThis is the array of the Nine Nether Demon Sect, called the Nine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Array. Once activated, itâs terrifying. Those outside cannot enter and those inside cannot leave.
Only by breaking the foundation of the array from the inside can we break this formation; otherwise, we will all be trapped in here and die.
Upon hearing this, Wei Zongcheng panicked and roared, âWe need to act quickly, locate the foundation of the array, or my Demon Extermination Guards wonât hold out for long.â
âRoar, roar, roar.â
innumerable monsters flew over, causing several golden Law Rivers outside to tremble slightly.
Monsters in the array continued to pop up unceasingly, seemingly impossible to kill. They could even continuously strengthen themselves. It looked like these golden barriers would not hold out for much longer.
Zhuang Zijin released several runes to reinforce the golden barrier. âMy Law River canât hold out for long, at most it can maintain for an hour. We must find the foundation of the array quickly, otherwise, our Far Suppression Legion will be doomed.â Zhuang Ziyuan stated gravely. @@novelbin@@
Bai ChangFeng nodded, âIf Iâm not wrong, the foundation of the array mainly consists of the sixteen black light pillars gushing out from the bottom of the Black Nether River. As long as we destroy them, the Nine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Array will break.
However, the monsters outside are becoming stronger, and theyâre more fearsome the closer they are to the black light pillars. We must send a group of powerful individuals to destroy them, otherwise, itâs a suicide mission.â Upon hearing this, everyoneâs expressions turned bleak.
At present, just the monsters rushing to kill them have reached the Golden
Body Realm.
As time passed, these monsters would only become stronger.
The closer they got to the black light pillars, the more fearsome the monsters became.
Everyone here was a Earth-rank Demon Extermination General. The weakest among them possessed the strength of the Rune Seed Realm. However, no one could guarantee that they could safely reach where the arrayâs foundation located.
âBrother Bai, you are the strongest among us, please make the decision.â Seeing everyone fall silent, and the situation outside becoming more and more critical, Zhang Wenyun proposed.
Seeing no objections, Bai ChangFeng cleared his throat and started.
âThere are twelve black light pillars in total, signifying twelve array foundations. To ensure the destruction of the array foundation, we need at least twenty-four powerful individuals.
Of course, to protect these weaker Demon Extermination Guards, we also need to leave a sufficient number of strong individuals.â
Finishing, he turned towards Zhuang Ziyuan: âZiyuanâs Law River can construct a golden barrier to suppress the monstersâ attack. You need to stay.â Then he turned to the others: âThose with power above the mid-stage of the Rune Seed Realm, step forward.â
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Instantly, over thirty bright lights shot out. Most of them were Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals, two were Martial Academy Elders, and another was a rogue cultivator, Zuo Qiuye.
Although he was still in the early stage of the Rune Seed Realm, no one doubted his strength.
Lu Yun, who was only at the peak of the Rune Seed Realm, stood in mid-air. The aura he exuded suppressed most of the Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals around him.
Bai ChangFeng glanced at everyone and turned his attention back to Zhang Wenyun: âBrother Zhang Wenyun, please stay and help Zhuang Ziyuan protect the Demon Extermination Guards.â
âOkay.â Zhang Wenyun nodded slightly.
The destruction of the array foundation was crucial, but so was protecting the Demon Extermination Guards.
If the entire lower echelon of the Far Suppression Legion was wiped out, even if they managed to break the array, it would mean very little.
Then, Bai ChangFeng selected seven others to stay and fight the monsters alongside the remaining Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals, providing cover for the Demon Extermination Guards.
âWenyun, Ziyuan, the safety of the Far Suppression Legion relies on you.â Before departing, Bai ChangFeng gravely addressed the pair.
âRest assured, we will protect them.â
Zhang Wenyun and Zhuang Ziyuan solemnly nodded.
âLetâs go.â
Bai ChangFeng, Lu Yun, and the other twenty-four powerhouses flew over the tall wall towards the Black Nether River.
in the array, there was no sense of direction, but they could see the twelve black light pillars gushing out from the Black Nether River.
