Chapter 503: Chapter 223: It’s About Time. Double Kill (Part 2)

He immediately looked to his right, waiting for Xiao Chen to take the lead.

At this point, Yu Zhenyang had already given up on thinking for himself.

It wasn’t that he lacked his own opinions. Rather, in the world of cultivation where the strong are revered, this was a common occurrence.

When a cultivator’s strength was clearly a cut above the rest, he naturally held the most authority.

Only cultivators of similar strength needed to resort to scheming and intrigue to vie for so-called power.

While even the greatest martial power could not eliminate dissenting opinions, a powerful individual could simply eliminate the dissenters themselves.

Over time, people grew accustomed to this, coming to believe that whatever the strong did was, by definition, right.

"Then we’ll..."

Before Xiao Chen could finish speaking, a loud WHOOSH cut him off as a Sword Formation Map flew toward them.

In an instant, it transformed into a simple Sword Array, enclosing all five of them.

Immediately after, eighty-one streams of cyan Sword Qi slashed toward them from all directions.

"Guiyuan Thick Earth, protect me!"

Yu Zhenyang and the others reacted quickly, scattering as they activated protective Talismans.

But it was too late; they were unable to escape the Sword Array’s perimeter.

"Hurry up! Don’t leave a single one alive!"

Three Cultivators suddenly appeared at the entrance of the rightmost Traveling Palace. Each one activated a Spiritual Artifact, preparing to coordinate with the Array for the kill.

"Jade Platform Fire Lotus!"

Xiao Chen remained calm, raising a hand to cast a Protective Technique on himself.

He then formed a sword-finger and slashed at his surroundings.

A stream of Cloud-Riding Sword Qi instantly shot from his fingertip and struck the Array.

But even though it was a Killing Array, it was a Tier Three Array and was completely unfazed by the Cloud-Riding Sword Qi.

’Alright, this is getting interesting.’

’Looks like my opponents have a few tricks up their sleeves. No wonder they dared to ambush a larger group.’

TING! TING! TING!

The cyan Sword Qi struck Xiao Chen’s Fire Lotus, erupting in a shower of dazzling sparks, but he remained completely unharmed.

"From extreme Yin, Yang is born; from Yang, Yin is born. Invert the cosmos, reverse the Five Elements."

Yu Zhenyang immediately began to reverse-channel the Yin Yang Separation Forbidden Array, attempting to break the surrounding Array.

"Profound Turtle Armor, stand firm as a mountain!"

Cao Mingjie and Ma Wenbo moved in perfect sync to guard his flanks, casting Defense Magic in unison to block the surrounding Sword Qi.

As they spoke, the phantom image of a mountain peak materialized, shielding the three of them.

Qiu Fanghui took up a position on the other side of the Array, summoning two Profound Iron Puppets to defend him.

He didn’t deploy all his puppets at once, holding two in reserve as a trump card.

"Stop them!"

The Blue-clothed Cultivator at the forefront roared, "Celestial Net Cloud Lock Chain!"

A golden light immediately flared, coalescing in mid-air into a chain that bound Xiao Chen tightly.

A smile touched the Blue-clothed Cultivator’s eyes at the sight.

This was no ordinary Magic of his. Once an enemy cultivator was physically bound, the True Essence within their body would be completely suppressed, rendering it unusable.

"Celestial River Reversal!"

To the right, a female cultivator in red robes gave a sharp cry.

A torrent of water instantly materialized at Qiu Fanghui’s feet, surging upward.

It enveloped him and his two puppets completely, trapping them within a large sphere of water and temporarily cutting them off from the others.

"Let the Cyan Lotus be the sword, and the sword be the Cyan Lotus."

Meanwhile, the Cyan-clothed Cultivator on the left raised a slender wooden sword with his right hand. He placed his left hand before the blade and activated a Secret Technique.

Within the Array, the streams of cyan Sword Qi instantly transformed into blooming Cyan Lotuses.

They then surged toward Yu Zhenyang, intent on stopping him from breaking the Array.

BOOM!

A Cyan Lotus landed before the trio of defenders, blooming in an instant and shattering into over a hundred sharp blades of light.

A deluge of Cyan Lotuses followed, the dense barrage of light blades shredding the outer phantom of the mountain peak.

The Guiyuan Thick Earth Talisman beneath it was overwhelmed and began to crack.

"Not good!"

Yu Zhenyang instantly abandoned the Array Plate. He slapped on a new defensive Talisman while simultaneously summoning a Spirit Shield to share the defensive burden.

He glanced to his left and saw Xiao Chen bound fast by the golden chain.

A glance to his right revealed only the large sphere of water.

His heart sank. Their situation was dire.

Their opponents were only three, but they were all Late-stage Golden Core Cultivators who had prepared an Array as a trap. Now caught inside, even with superior numbers, they would be hard-pressed to cope.

The biggest problem, as Yu Zhenyang well knew, was that Body Cultivators were often helpless in this type of situation.

Brute force alone was almost never enough to shatter an Array.

On the contrary, they would be shackled by the Array Power, like being caught in quicksand, and slowly suffocated to death.

Yu Zhenyang took a deep breath. He had to break the Array so that Xiao Chen could bring his superior strength to bear.

He gritted his teeth and unfurled the Array Plate again. "Second Martial Brother, Third Martial Brother, buy me thirty minutes!"

Operating the Array Plate required an immense amount of True Essence and Divine Sense, leaving him completely unable to defend himself from enemy attacks.

He could also predict that the enemy would certainly focus their attacks on him, the Array Breaker.

If anything went wrong, he would be instantly shredded by the Sword Array.

But as it stood, this was the only path to survival Yu Zhenyang could see.

"Hmph. A futile struggle."

The Blue-clothed Cultivator opposite him snorted coldly, then drew a deep blue leaf from his robes. "Biluo Thousand Leaves, this one named Frost. Go!"

As he spoke, he tossed it forward. The leaf floated in the air, its trajectory erratic and unpredictable.
