Chapter 182: Spring Thunder, Reverse Assault, Rainy Night with Swords, Array-breaking Mountain Assau
Chapter 182: Spring Thunder, Reverse Assault, Rainy Night with Swords, Array-breaking Mountain Assault (Part 2)
There were only silhouettes silently walking out in the cold, rainy night.
Without umbrellas to shield against the rain, all they had were gleaming blades and swords.
A solemn atmosphere filled the air.
A woman stood at the forefront of the crowd, dressed in a sleek black outfit.
"President, a team of fifty people has been assembled."
Hearing this number, Sima Huiwang couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in her heart.
This was the best force that Luo Tianhui could muster after the beast tide.
The main force consisted of twenty-five Qi Condensation Late Stage cultivators from the Battle Hall, accompanied by twenty-five Intermediate Qi Condensation cultivators.
However, the opponent they were about to face was an ancient cultivation family that had stood in Da He Fang for hundreds of years.
To outsiders, this was akin to an egg trying to smash a stone.
But Sima Huiwang didn't think so.
Her gaze swept over the familiar faces in the rainy night.
Big brother Sima Xian, third brother Sima Wenjie, Zhou Yuanli, Qin Liangchen, Mengmou Qinglian... a total of nine Qi Cultivation Ninth Level cultivators.
Even the elderly Granny Yuan had joined the battle.
With her included, there were ten of them!
This force was already strong enough to sweep away most of the smaller factions without a single Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Her gaze fell on Duan Feng, and the large bag at his waist.
Sima Huiwang's confidence grew even more. With this beast by their side, breaking through Little Heavenly Mountain was a piece of cake.
Moreover, the Chairman had been preparing for this battle for a long time.
All sixty people present had a Blood-Boiling Pill!
When Luo Chen personally handed over these pills to her, Sima Huiwang was stunned.
She never imagined that the person who bought the Brightness Elixir from her in the black market was also Luo Chen.
But upon further thought, it seemed very reasonable.
In Da He Fang, aside from Luo Chen, who held the Daoist name Danchenzi, who else had the ability to refine such powerful pills?
Each person having a Blood-Boiling Pill meant that at the brink of death, everyone would have a chance to burst forth with power, perhaps even turning the tide of battle.
In a sense, this battle, without a single Foundation Establishment cultivator, was a sure win!
"However, regarding Foundation Establishment... Chairman, are you really confident?"
Sima Huiwang turned her head, looking at the distant Crescent Moon Valley, where the lights shone brightly, creating an illusion.
In a daze, she seemed to see Luo Chen standing in the cold wind, watching their departure.
"President?"
"Depart!"
There was no passionate pre-battle pep talk, nor were there promises of great rewards as before.
These things had already been said before the assembly.
She coldly uttered the word "Depart."
The Luo Tianhui cultivators braved the cold rain of the changing seasons and marched forward in silence.
...
...
In the cold rainy night, the cultivators marched solemnly.
Even though they had suppressed most of their auras, such a large group moving together could not go unnoticed.
As the Luo Tianhui cultivators passed through the desolate night, they were soon followed by escaping lights.
Most of them kept a safe distance, not daring to get too close.
After all, such a well-disciplined and orderly group of cultivators would make anyone's heart tremble.
Especially when the ten leaders were each emitting the powerful aura of the Qi Cultivation Ninth Level.
Who would dare to provoke them? The followers kept their distance, guessing the destination of this group.
At first, it wasn't clear.
But as they ventured further away from the outer city, into the increasingly remote wilderness, a shocking thought emerged in everyone's minds.
"They're heading towards Little Heavenly Mountain!"
What was Little Heavenly Mountain? It was the home of the famous Da He Fang artifact-forging cultivation family, the Duan Family! Within it resided the Foundation Establishment Elder, Duan Qiankun.
Had this group gone mad? Gradually, some recognized the origins of these cultivators.
"Is that Zeng Wen?"
"Zeng Wen, Qin Liangchen, Yuan Yuejiao... they're from Luo Tianhui!"
"Have they gone crazy, daring to target the Duan Family?"
"Tsk tsk, they're going to their deaths!"
"Follow them, follow them. We might be able to pick up some leftovers later."
"Indeed, great minds think alike. I heard that the Luo Tianhui cultivators are filthy rich!"
"After all, with an alchemist among them, who else could be wealthier?"
Amidst the urging, the joy, and the curiosity, more and more people joined the tailing crowd.
If it were just one or two people, perhaps no one would dare to join in.
But with so many people, the psychology of the crowd made them feel more confident.
Even if bad luck struck, it might not fall on them.
However, as the Luo Tianhui cultivators advanced, not a single Duan Family cultivator appeared.
This made the Da He Fang wandering cultivators feel increasingly uncertain.
When had cultivation families become so careless? It wasn't until the Luo Tianhui cultivators gathered at the foot of Little Heavenly Mountain that the buildings on the mountain lit up one after another.
Sima Huiwang put away her paper crane for sound transmission and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At least, the first step had been executed perfectly!
Throughout their journey, there had not been a single Duan Family spy.
Their mysterious disappearance was undoubtedly related to Luo Chen and Wang Yuan.
Sima Huiwang raised her head, first glancing at the single dim star in the cold night sky, and then her gaze fell upon Little Heavenly Mountain.
Snow still hung on the tree branches.
The lights shone continuously along the mountain slopes.
"Elder Duan, it's your turn now."
After her command, Duan Feng flew out silently.
Not only him, but also Zeng Wen, Sima Wenjie, and Gu Caiyi.
Looking at the familiar surroundings, Duan Feng's expression turned grim, and his eyes were filled with hatred.
His father had died in battle for the family! His mother had been driven to suicide by the family!
His chance for Foundation Establishment had been mercilessly taken away.
The deaths of his father and mother had created an ocean of enmity.
The abandonment of him as a son was unforgivable.
"Everything is because of you!"
Taking a deep breath, Duan Feng nodded to the three of them.
Without any unnecessary words, the three flew in different directions.
As they moved, the Duan Family cultivators on Little Heavenly Mountain were not oblivious to the situation.
Amidst the chaotic actions, many Duan Family cultivators rushed towards seven locations in the mountain.
Soon, they were even faster than Duan Feng and the others.
A seven-colored light screen rose with the power to exterminate everything.
Golden, cyan, blue, red, and yellow lights intertwined.
Black and white colors enveloped the sky and the earth.
Beyond black and white.
In the sky, a cloud formed by ice and snow remained motionless.
Nan Gong Jin stood atop it, accompanied by the excited Nan Gong Qin.
Looking at the seven-colored light screen, Nan Gong Jin's face turned solemn, and he whispered to Nan Gong Qin beside him:
"This is the Duan Family's mountain protection array, the Seven Absolute Extinction Ring Array."
"A second-rank array, capable of both offense and defense!"
"Its power is extraordinary. With this array, even if Duan Qiankun passes away, the Duan Family will still have the strength to protect themselves.
"
"My Nan Gong family only has a first-level protective clan array. In the future, if we have the opportunity, we should also seek a second-level array to protect our clan."
As Nan Gong Qin heard his explanation, his excitement gradually faded.
His expression turned solemn, "I can sense the vast spiritual energy fluctuations within the array, constantly brewing."
"If it's triggered, it will surely be earth-shattering."
"Can Luo Tianhui break this array?"
Can it be broken?
This question appeared in many people's minds.
They all thought of the Fu Family Battle.
That man who breached the city alone.
If that person appeared, could he break this array?
But clearly, there was no sign of Wang Yuan near Little Heavenly Mountain.
"If we can't break this array, let's leave," Nan Gong Jin said softly.
But his eyes clearly revealed his eagerness to try.
He really wanted to know what gave Luo Tianhui the confidence to dare to challenge a Foundation Establishment family.
...
Almost at the moment the Seven Absolute Extinction Ring Array was formed, powerful spiritual energy fluctuations erupted from within.
One could imagine that in the next moment, a terrifying attack would be launched.
However, facing all this, Duan Feng and the other three remained calm.
They each took out four high-grade magical tools of different attributes and aimed them at the four directions of the array.
Then, without hesitation, they hurled them into the array.
Next, amidst the terrified gazes of the cultivators maintaining the array at the corresponding nodes, the four high-grade magical tools exploded one after the other in a specific interval sequence!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the instant the sound of the magical tools' explosions spread, the vast spiritual energy fluctuations within the Seven Absolute Extinction Ring Array vanished.
The seven-colored light curtain, which had risen like bamboo shoots before, now dissipated like snow in the wind.
Everything seemed to have become an illusion.
The Seven Absolute Extinction Ring Array was broken!
A second-level array capable of both offense and defense, enough to protect the Duan family, was broken so easily?
In the sky above.
Nan Gong Qin exclaimed in shock, "Wasn't it a second-level array? How could it be broken so easily?"
Beside him, Nan Gong Jin's eyes sparkled with a thoughtful look.
"So that's how it is."
"Using magical tools to form an array, integrating the principles of the five elements' mutual generation and the cycle of yin and yang. Although it's both offensive and defensive, it's a clever approach, not linking the earth's veins and mountain's energy."
"Since Duan Feng is from the Duan family, he must be very familiar with this protective mountain array, so he came up with a specialized countermeasure."
"Breaking tools with tools, using the five elements to counter the five elements. Although it's not very clever, as long as the circulation of the five elements is disrupted, the array will collapse on its own."
"Haha, the Duan family has produced a petty thief!"
Nan Gong Jin laughed lightly.
The Seven Absolute Extinction Ring Array that enveloped Little Heavenly Mountain completely vanished.
It was as if it had never existed.
All the awakened members of the Duan family stared blankly at the sky, not knowing what to do.
Just at this moment, a furious roar pierced through the long night.
"Traitor!"
A dazzling sword light burst forth with dazzling brilliance, carrying the might of thunder, and slashed down.
Faintly, the sound of ocean waves could be heard within.
This sword strike was aimed directly at Duan Feng, the main force behind the array's breaking.
This was a Foundation Establishment strike filled with rage. Could Duan Feng, merely at the ninth level of Qi Condensation, block it?
Amidst countless tense gazes.
A deafening roar erupted from in front of Duan Feng.
"Roar!"
Boom! Boom! In an instant, a one-and-a-half-zhang tall Explosive Ape appeared, blocking Duan Feng.
It pounded its chest, and its body continued to expand.
Two zhang!
Three zhang!
In the blink of an eye, it reached five zhang, like a small mountain.
It stretched out two giant palms and clapped them together.
Boom! The sword light was tightly grasped in its palms, and terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations spread out from the Explosive Ape.
The ground suddenly sank three zhang, and the Explosive Ape sank deeper.
At this moment, a nimble figure leaped up, stepping on the Explosive Ape's shoulder, and calmly faced the aged figure on Little Heavenly Mountain.
"Old Dog, today is the day this family, flowing with filthy blood, will be destroyed!"
On Little Heavenly Mountain, Duan Qiankun trembled with anger.
With his years of ups and downs, he had never been this furious.
This showed how much anger Duan Feng's words had caused him.
This family was his life's dedication and his pride.
Today, it was called a "family flowing with filthy blood."
In his extreme anger, he laughed, "Traitor, don't you also have the blood of the Duan family flowing in your veins?"
"Yes, so today I will uphold justice and eliminate my kin." Duan Feng's gaze was cold, and the blood in his body seemed to be boiling.
He had tossed and turned countless nights, and countless times, he had woken up in the middle of the night.
His thoughts and aspirations were all for this moment!
Only now did he realize how excited he truly was.
His body was so excited that it was about to tremble.
"Eliminating kin? Haha..."
After a bitter laugh, Duan Qiankun shouted, "Is this what Thirteenth Madam taught you?"
"Old Dog, you're not worthy of mentioning my mother's name!"
Hearing that familiar name, Duan Feng's face twisted, and he bit his lips hard.
"Hmph!"
Duan Qiankun sneered and swept his gaze over the people below, as if wanting to devour them.
"Do you think you can kill your way up the mountain with just this second-level demonic beast?"
Just then.
In the night, a vast red light suddenly erupted.
Like a tornado, it rushed towards Little Heavenly Mountain.
As he ran, his momentum continued to rise.
Coldly watching that figure, Duan Qiankun remained unmoved.
His cold gaze swept the surroundings, and his spiritual perception covered a five-li radius.
No one else? Duan Qiankun frowned slightly, but he continued to test them.
"Just the two of you?"
Below the mountain.
Just as Duan Feng was about to speak, Sima Huiwang's sharp voice rang out.
"No need for idle talk, he's just buying time for the Duan family's cultivators."
"Everyone!"
"Follow me and kill!"
Sima Huiwang raised her right hand high and led the charge, with her eldest brother and third brother by her side, their spiritual power growing stronger.
Qin Liangchen held a golden gourd great hammer, and Mengmou Qinglian walked side by side.
Zhou Yuanli nodded to Liu Qiang beside him, and with his longsword swirling around him, he stepped onto Little Heavenly Mountain.
Liu Qiang suppressed his excitement and disappeared into the forest.
In other directions, Zeng Wen, Granny Yuan, and Gu Caiyi transformed into streaks of light, guiding the way forward.
The dozens of Luo Tianhui troops followed without hesitation.
In an instant, battle cries shook the heavens.
