However, if it really comes down to it,

I'll have to let Xiaobai step in—my life comes first.

Lin Chang'sheng felt that, although he was slower than a Golden Core Stage cultivator, his physical strength was equal to a cultivator at the middle stage of Golden Core. He wasn't afraid!

Just to be safe, he decided to escape first.

[Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer 0/8000]

Right at that moment.

Lin Chang'sheng felt a crack in his mind, his whole body shuddered, and at the same time, a powerful aura surged out from him!

"Huh? Broke through to Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer at a time like this?"

Seeing the red notification on his panel and feeling the aura on his body grow twice as strong as before, Lin Chang'sheng was surprised.

Breaking through right now was a big help for him.

Following the tunnel he'd carved out, Lin Chang'sheng advanced, and as he moved, his divine sense exploded outward, locking onto the two Golden Core Early Stage cultivators nearby, as well as the Snow Python and Profound Turtle.

The Snow Python was thrashing its massive tail inside the cave, but couldn't hit Lin Chang'sheng at all!

Outside, the Black Armored Profound Turtle slammed its gigantic claws against the rock walls, scurrying around like an ant on a hot pan.

Only the two Golden Core cultivators floated closer, hovering above the cliff right over Lin Chang'sheng's head. Their divine sense was fixed on Lin Chang'sheng, hiding within the rocks, just waiting for him to come out so they could strike and kill him instantly.

"Goddammit!"

Lin Chang'sheng locked his divine sense on the two Golden Core Early Stage cultivators overhead, thoughts racing in his mind. Suddenly, his eyes lit up—he'd come up with a great idea!

Array Formation!

Because—

Inside his storage bag, he had the array plate and array foundations for the Earth Vein Fiery Divine Burning Array. Even though there was no fiery flame here, there was an earth vein. With his perfected enlightenment of this array, he could set up the Earth Vein God-Trapping Array.

No flame to burn the soul, but trapping anyone who entered for a short time was no problem.

The principle is—

Using the earth vein here, then laying spirit stones to form a confinement space. There would be no fiery blaze inside, and any cultivator caught would be dazed for a while before they regained their senses!

The array, lacking earth fire, couldn't kill, but all Lin Chang'sheng wanted was to daze these two Golden Core cultivators for a short while. Given this window, he could use his middle Golden Core body strength to quickly crush the Golden Core cultivators.

With that thought—

Lin Chang'sheng immediately whipped out forty-nine array foundations and an array plate. He didn't set up something as huge as he did on the Spirit-Seizing Land island, just buried the array foundations within a hundred-zhang stretch of rock here.

Lucky for him, his physical body was tough enough to cut through stone like tofu, letting him carve tunnels through the mountain wall with zero effort. Soon, he had a bunch of passages dug out.

"That bastard, how can his body be so strong? What is he trying to do??"

Lu Chang's divine sense watched Lin Chang'sheng burrowing through rock instead of coming out, even burying things as he went. Lu Chang's brows knitted in a deep frown.

He'd considered using magical power to split the rock and kill Lin Chang'sheng inside, but going to such extremes for a little bug—better to wait for him to come out and finish him off.

"That little bug, Foundation Establishment Third Layer, and he dares try to rob food from a tiger's jaws?"

"I'll make him wish he'd never been born!"

Jian Shaowu's divine sense focused on Lin Chang'sheng hidden within the rocks, murderous intent flickering in his eyes.

At that moment.

The Profound Turtle was scurrying under the mountainside, the giant python had rushed into the cavern, both trying to catch Lin Chang'sheng. The two Golden Core cultivators hovered in midair, waiting for him to emerge from the rocks.

"Getting boxed in by two Golden Core cultivators and two Golden Core demon beasts—this Foundation Establishment Third Layer guy is completely finished!"

"Seriously, he must have a deathwish. This is Golden Core level opportunity. Foundation Establishment cultivators like us never have a shot!"

"What a shame!"

"......"

At that moment, all the cultivators watching from over ten miles away were buzzing, already picturing the Foundation Establishment Third Layer cultivator's tragic death.

Now—

Lin Chang'sheng was hiding in the mountain's heart, digging stones and tossing them into his storage bag. After killing all those cultivators, he had nearly a hundred storage bags. They were perfect for hauling stone.

Before long—

Lin Chang'sheng had all forty-nine array foundations buried within a hundred-zhang radius. At last, he planted the array plate in the center.

Just then—

Jian Shaowu summoned a long sword treasure; Lu Chang summoned a giant axe, both floating above the heart of the mountain!

Suddenly, Jian Shaowu felt the world go dark!

The mountain peak under his feet vanished!

In its place was a huge stone mountain—he stood atop it!

Lin Chang'sheng stood above the array plate, and his divine sense detected the two Golden Core cultivators slowly descending to the ground, their faces blank and confused, glancing around.

"Now's my chance!"

Lin Chang'sheng's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He activated the Saint Buddha Golden Body, clasped his hands like knives, and leaped skyward, charging straight for Jian Shaowu on the left, who held the long sword treasure.

Because while unleashing the Saint Buddha Golden Body, Lin Chang'sheng's hands glowed with three-foot pale gold light, radiating a terrifying, razor-sharp edge!

Where he passed, stone split apart like tofu!

"Shhk!"

Lin Chang'sheng brought his hands together, like two sharp blades, stabbing at the dazed Jian Shaowu. In an instant, his deadly palms split Jian Shaowu's right leg in two and, not slowing down, sliced off his right arm!

Jian Shaowu was still dazed atop the stone mountain, scanning about, when he sensed a surge of deadly danger underfoot. He tried to dodge, but it was already too late. All he could do was watch as the gold light viciously split his right leg, then sliced his right arm clean off at the shoulder!
