At the entrance of the residence behind the Artifact Refining Pavilion, many people gathered, watching the conflict with interest.

On one side were the sect's management personnel, on the other were external tributors, it seemed this tributor would be disadvantaged.

"Wang Sheng, if you dare to continue resisting, you will only face severe suppression!"

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Xie Jintong threatened angrily.

"Your reason is insufficient, suppress my ass."

Shen Wang despised such brainless individuals the most, and reached for his Storage Pouch, producing nine Array Chess pieces.

As an Array Master, he decided to use arrays to deal with people, minimizing exposure of his other cards.

He simultaneously activated all the Array Flags, employing a Celestial Rain Scattering Flowers technique. The flags shot out like arrows, erupting with Array Power mid-flight, swiftly forming a Defense Array.

The whole process took only a few breaths; the speed was so fast that the Array Masters present were stunned. Even Xie Jintong and his companions did not expect Shen Wang to set up an array immediately, instead of continuing to clash with them or fleeing.

"This person's method of array formation is interesting, it's very much like a hidden weapon technique."

"The key is the speed. For an array formed by nine Array Flags to be set up so quickly, it's fascinating."

"It's more than just interesting; he's set up a middle-grade array. In such a small area, the power will be extremely concentrated. Even a Golden Core Zhenren would have difficulty breaking it."

"Xie Jintong and his fellows are in for a hard time. Of all the people to provoke, they picked a versatile Fourth-Grade Array Grandmaster."

Some knowledgeable onlookers commented wryly, enjoying the prospect of Xie Jintong's group conceding defeat.

These people relied on their formidable combat abilities to engage in boorish deeds, which had long been a point of criticism.

Shen Wang easily set up the array, then crossed his arms: "Come, suppress me, or just get lost!"

"Kid, I refuse to believe you can throw out a few flags to act this arrogantly with me!"

Xie Jintong's fist shone brightly with golden light as he leapt, plunging towards Shen Wang like a meteor with overwhelming momentum.

Bang!

However, before he could flaunt his prowess, a layer of white light repelled him halfway through, preventing him from getting close to Shen Wang.

"With that little strength, are you trying to scratch the Itai Array?"

Shen Wang mocked; this array was part of an annual task he accepted, refining a set of middle-grade arrays, and he could do nothing else for ten years without anyone complaining.

During his time at home, aside from daily Dual Cultivation and earning rewards, he was refining array components.

Although his artifact refining skills lagged behind his talisman-making abilities, he had still advanced to Grandmaster level in artifact refinement, making this level of array component easy to refine.

Now, by unveiling this array, he not only avoided showing too many of his cards but also tested the array's combat effectiveness.

And it seemed pretty decent.

"I don't believe an array set up casually can last long. All of you, attack!"

Xie Jintong couldn't bear the loss of face and called on the other two to launch a strong assault on the array.

Bam bam bam!

All three were Body Refining Cultivators, with their bodies immensely strong. When activating their Body Refining Techniques, their whole bodies were like Vajra, causing the Array Barrier to distort with each hit.

Shen Wang merely sneered; he had seen this kind of brute force array breaking too many times, having dealt with over a hundred people from Black Water Stronghold already, so what was this?

He calmly observed the trio's attack. Their skin was golden as if metallic, the higher their cultivation, the brighter the golden light, making them appear extremely hardened.

Shen Wang recognized this as the Hundred Refinements Golden Body, a powerful defensive Body Refining Technique, distinct from the Dragon-Suppressing Force.

From the name alone, the Dragon-Suppressing Force was a cultivation method focusing on power, emphasizing the cultivation of vigor and muscles to gain the Power of Dragon Suppressing and Tiger Subduing.

In contrast, the Hundred Refinements Golden Body was more defensive, like a Vajra Indestructible state. It was said that when cultivated to the Great Success status, the flesh becomes like a Magical Treasure, impervious to all spells, allowing one to catch Magical Treasures barehanded without a problem.

This meant the two techniques didn't conflict, so seeing this sparked some interest in him.

His own cultivation mainly relied on system enhancements, with various experiences accrued through the system's rewards, encountering no real challenges, necessitating an increase in difficulty.

Currently, aside from the Black Emperor Body Refining Chapter from the Black Emperor Scriptures, he only had the Dragon-Suppressing Force. Both techniques had characteristics of slow cultivation, and even with the system's assistance, the improvement speed wasn't remarkable, prompting him to consider adding another technique.

For instance, this Hundred Refinements Golden Body, regardless of cultivation speed, at least seemed very promising.

"The Purgatory True Skill is also decent, a Fire Attribute technique. Coupling it with the Yin Yang Scripture can increase difficulty and depth."

Shen Wang pondered, since the system's upgrade to his cultivation didn't depend on his cultivation techniques, adhering to proportional enhancement, naturally, cultivating more would provide a deeper foundation.

Xie Jintong and his companions relentlessly attacked for a while, their hurried breathing the only change, showing no signs of breaking through.

Thus, their expressions turned even darker.

They not only lost face but also felt stuck without a way out.

Failing to capture this man would make them a laughingstock throughout Hundred Refinements City.

This realization made them grit their teeth and continue their assault, even though their hands were growing weak, they did not stop.

Shen Wang's expression grew more amused: "I'm curious, what exactly do you have against me? Don't tell me I have some grudge with you all?"

"Your origins are unclear, and we are capturing you according to sect rules!"

Xie Jintong replied coldly, "Surrender wisely and explain your background, or suffer no pain."

"That sounds grandiose. Go on, break through the array first."
