Chapter 406: In the Multicolored Dan Xia, I Reign Supreme!
Chapter 406: In the Multicolored Dan Xia, I Reign Supreme!
A hundred years ago, the master of Dan Xia was not Luo Tian Association, but the array master family, the Min family.
At that time, they had made too many enemies and provoked powerful adversaries, leading to a joint attack against them.
Without any allies to aid them, they were besieged for a year, their supplies cut off.
In the end, the mountain was destroyed, and only Min Longyu's branch of mortal descendants survived.
At that time, the Min family had a great reputation, but in the end, they were merely an Immortal Cultivation family.
Their internal experts numbered only six or seven Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
In comparison, the current Luo Tian Association was far stronger than the Min family.
However, the enemy they faced was not even in the same league.
The Min family managed to hold out for a year because their enemies weren't significantly stronger than them.
But now, the Destroy Luo Alliance, led by the Dragon Backbone Zeng Family, had a strength nearly three times that of the Luo Tian Association!
Among them were experts that struck fear into the hearts of others.
There were as many as eight Late Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators! And among them was even Zheng Xian, a Peak Foundation Establishment expert! Moreover, Zheng Xian was not just any ordinary Loose Cultivator.
Those with insight knew that this person was once a true disciple of the Flame Alliance, but he was expelled from the sect due to a mistake he made.
It could be said that his abilities were no less than those of the true disciples of the Seven Jade Cauldron Sects.
Even compared to the disciples of the various sects, he was not inferior.
After all, the Peak Foundation Establishment realm was a formidable level!
Even on his own, ordinary second-rate forces wouldn't dare to provoke him.
At this moment, under his leadership, eight Great Cultivators attacked simultaneously.
The overwhelming might caused others to tremble in awe! Just as they launched their attacks, a light screen emitting multicolored rays of light shot up from the Dan Xia Peak, instantly enveloping the entire mountain.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The eight attacks almost simultaneously struck the light screen.
The violent tremors produced deafening explosions.
Such intense attacks were not to be underestimated, even by Golden Core Seniors.
However!
When the eight attackers recalled their Magical Artifacts and focused their Divine Perception, they saw ripples on the array, and the colorful mist thickened once again.
The array seemed to have thinned out a bit, but as the mist spread, the weakened areas became robust again.
In the blink of an eye, the aftermath subsided, and only the Multicolored Dan Xia Array stood tall and unyielding, reaching into the heavens and earth!
When this scene unfolded before them, everyone was shocked.
Song Fengzi, the Foreign Loose Cultivator, took a deep breath in surprise.
"A Tier Three Defensive Array?"
How could a mere second-rate force possibly set up a Tier Three Defensive Array?
Xiahou Kun was equally astonished.
A hundred years ago, the Silver Canyon Xiahou family had participated in the campaign that destroyed the Min family.
At that time, the Min family couldn't have deployed an array of this caliber.
For a moment, everyone's gaze turned to the leader, Zheng Xian.
Under their watchful eyes, Zheng Xian's aged face showed a moment of silence.
After a brief pause, he said, "This is certainly not a complete Tier Three Defensive Array; otherwise, it wouldn't have shown a fleeting moment of weakness under our eight attacks."
The others nodded subconsciously after hearing this.
They had clearly seen that the array was indeed unstable under the impact.
If it were a genuine Tier Three Defensive Array, not even eight Late Foundation Establishment Cultivators could shake it.
Even if eight more came, it would remain unmoved!
After all, a Tier Three Defensive Array was designed to withstand Golden Core Seniors, and some of the best could even resist Nascent Soul Real Men.
An array was never the work of a single person.
It was the collective might of countless array tools, mountains, and numerous cultivators working together!
Tuoba Lingfei spoke up, "Then shall we continue?"
He and Xiang Zhonghe were not locals of Heavenly Wave.
The sooner this matter was resolved, the better!
However, Xiahou Kun had a different opinion.
"I have some understanding of arrays. Instead of a brute force attack, why not study it carefully and find its weakness before striking?"
When he said this, Tuoba Lingfei and Xiang Zhonghe couldn't help but frown.
But as Xiahou Kun's gaze fell upon them, they understood his intention.
There were too many onlookers here!
If the array was broken too early, these spectators would rush in and claim a share of the spoils.
After all, cultivators weren't idlers with nothing better to do, coming out to watch the show.
Their enthusiasm for spectating meant they were hoping to fish in troubled waters or even steal the fruits of victory.
As outsiders, Tuoba Lingfei and Xiang Zhonghe couldn't claim many resources.
But Xiahou Kun was a local, leading a large group of family cultivators.
With fewer onlookers, the Xiahou family would be able to seize more spoils of war.
As for whether they could break this array or not, they didn't think it would be that difficult.
Even if the eight Great Cultivators couldn't break through a true Tier Three Defensive Array, there were over thirty Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Alliance here.
If everyone attacked together, this array would surely be broken!
For a moment, both sides were at a stalemate.
Xiahou Kun's expression darkened, "Senior Brother Songfengzi, what do you think?"
In this battle, the Iron Sword Hall was undoubtedly one of the main forces.
Including Songfengzi, they had mobilized three Great Cultivators and ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
His attitude was crucial.
However, Songfengzi shook his head with a smile, "I'll follow Senior Brother Zhengxian's lead."
In name, this battle was a joint effort by various families.
In reality, the Flame Alliance led this battle, with Zhengxian at the forefront.
With Zhengxian taking the lead, even if Xiahou Kun felt discontent, he could only wait for Zhengxian's command.
Under everyone's gaze, Zhengxian looked up, as if staring at someone.
After a moment, he lowered his head and withdrew his gaze.
The focus of this battle wasn't resources, business, or even the Zheng family's personal grudge.
It was about the Flame Alliance's reputation! The longer it dragged on, the more dissatisfied the Flame Alliance would become.
Moreover, for Zhengxian personally, the grudge against the Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng family had nothing to do with him.
What he cared about was returning to the sect and advancing to the Golden Core stage.
Therefore, this matter must be handled with utmost excellence!
A thunderous attack to break and destroy the array was the right way!
Taking a deep breath, he raised his right hand high.
"All Foundation Establishment Cultivators, follow us and attack together to break through the array!"
Upon hearing this, Tuobada Lingfei and Xiang Zhonghe showed satisfied expressions. The sooner they resolved this, the sooner they could withdraw and return, which was the best outcome.
Xiahou Kun's face darkened. Thinking about the aftermath of annihilating the Luo Tian Association, he wouldn't gain much, and his mood sank.
Songfengzi exchanged glances with his two companions beside him, nodding in silent agreement.
For them, a quick victory or a prolonged battle made no difference.
The former would allow them to obtain the Core Formation Secret Technique sooner, while the latter would yield more cultivation resources, but it might lead to complications.
So, Zhengxian's decision didn't matter to them.
In a short time, under Zhengxian's firm leadership, the eight Great Cultivators united as one.
As for the thirty ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators, their opinions and demands became insignificant.
Soon, thirty-eight Foundation Establishment Cultivators stood in a row, beginning to gather their spiritual power and manipulate their magic tools and treasures.
Under the watchful eyes of countless Heavenly Wave Loose Cultivators, the spiritual energy fluctuations in the area became chaotic once again.
Powerful attacks were poised to be unleashed.
When everyone's attacks were almost ready, Zhengxian shouted.
"Attack!"
The next moment, a series of attacks, some from the front, some from the rear, some from above, and some from below, bombarded the rainbow light curtain that stretched from the ground to the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The deafening sounds shook the heavens and the earth.
The powerful sound waves rolled backwards.
Some lower-level Qi Condensation Period Cultivators, with weaker cultivation bases, even had blood gushing from their noses and mouths, forced to retreat continuously.
This round of attacks was incredibly powerful.
Under such intense attacks, the array began to tremble violently.
Inside Crimson Cloud Peak, where the array was constructed, the mountain itself shook, and large chunks of boulders broke off, rolling down with a thunderous rumble.
Soon!
As the dust and smoke cleared, large holes appeared in the light curtain.
Seeing these holes, Zhengxian's eyes lit up.
"The array is broken!"
"Everyone, start the charge!"
With a grand wave of his hand, he gave the order to attack.
The numerous Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had just unleashed their full power were now catching their breath.
However, the Qi Condensation Period Cultivators under their command, upon receiving signals from their elders and teachers, charged towards Crimson Cloud Peak in unison.
In an instant, over a thousand Qi Condensation Period Cultivators surged like a flood towards Crimson Cloud Peak.
In response, on Crimson Cloud Peak, shouts of battle erupted as well.
Thousands of cultivators, holding magic tools and talismans, stood guard on the mountain, determined to prevent the enemy from entering.
Among them were many low-level cultivators, only at the initial and middle stages of the Qi Condensation Period.
Zhengxian's vision was excellent, and he could see the entire scene clearly.
"It seems that the Luo Tian Association is determined to fight to the death, even sending out low-level disciples who aren't suitable for combat!"
As he spoke, Zheng Kexian approached.
"Uncle, should we Foundation Establishment Cultivators join the battle too?"
Zhengxian's eyebrows furrowed.
Glancing at the eager Foundation Establishment Cultivators, he whispered, "Don't be hasty. The Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Luo Tian Association are not to be underestimated. The first to stick out one's neck will be the first to rot. If you don't want the Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng family to decline, it's best to suppress your eagerness to avenge your father."
Zheng Kexian was taken aback, then nodded repeatedly.
Although his uncle wasn't close to them, at this moment, he still considered the Zheng family's well-being.
Just then, someone in the crowd couldn't contain their impatience and stepped forward.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I shall take my leave first!"
After witnessing his actions, the other Foundation Establishment Cultivators could no longer hold back.
"The Luo Tian Association has been oppressing our Dusty Mountain for a long time. Back then, Dan Chenzi threatened to flatten our Dusty Mountain. Now, it's our turn to flatten Crimson Cloud Peak!"
Wei Bufan let out a wild laugh and rode his flying sword into the shattered Rainbow Light Barrier.
Seeing his swift departure, Shen Gongyi, who shared a similar plight, hurriedly followed.
"Let's go together! We should settle the score with Wang Yuan for humiliating us back then. Elder Yu, if we don't act now, when will we ever?"
"Elder Shen, don't be hasty. I'm coming right now."
While they were calling out to their allies, several Foundation Establishment Cultivators rode their flying swords, surging towards Crimson Cloud Peak.
In just a moment, over ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators had entered within a hundred meters of Crimson Cloud Peak.
The remaining ten or so people weren't unwilling to act; they were being suppressed by the eight Late Foundation Establishment Cultivators through sound transmission.
"Let them go first and test the waters of the Luo Tian Association."
"Don't be hasty, don't be hasty! Let's observe the situation first!"
"Be patient and calm. Let's wait for a moment, and then we'll charge in. The good things won't escape us."
They said this, but as they watched those ten or so people charge into Crimson Cloud Peak, Xiahou Kun and the others couldn't help but feel impatient.
The Luo Tian Association was indeed powerful.
However, to be honest, the only publicly known Late Foundation Establishment Cultivator was Chu Kui.
If they allowed that disorganized group to seize the valuable resources, their efforts would be in vain.
Xiahou Kun glanced at Zheng Xian and Pine Wind Zi. He was the first to lose his patience, his face turning stern.
"Attack!"
With a wave of his hand, the five Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Xiahou Family flew towards Crimson Cloud Peak.
But before they even got close, a piercing howl from Xiahou Kun came from behind.
"Come back!"
"Huh?" The five Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Xiahou Family were taken aback.
Then, they revealed looks of terror as they turned to look at the scene within the formation's gaps.
On the light barrier!
A Rainbow Daoist wearing a tall crown emerged from within the light barrier.
Holding a longsword, he strode towards a 2nd Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
He didn't walk fast.
But the cultivator's flying speed was even slower!
When the Rainbow Daoist slashed with his sword, the cultivator's eyes widened in terror, and without any resistance, his head was chopped off.
As the head rolled to the ground, the Rainbow Daoist smiled slightly, and his figure dissipated, returning to the array.
If this was all, it would have been fine.
But the next moment!
The light barrier trembled, and the Rainbow Daoist reappeared in the mortal realm!
Holding a longsword and walking with the same strides.
This time, his opponent was surprisingly a Mid Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Wei Bufan!
In the past, he was only at the 3rd Layer of Foundation Establishment. Under Luo Chen's pressure, facing his enemy, he had to put on a smiling face, even apologizing and begging for forgiveness.
Now, over a decade had passed, and he had advanced to the Mid Foundation Establishment stage.
He had wanted to take revenge and wash away his humiliation.
However, at this moment, he was trembling with fear, his face pale.
"What kind of sinister technique is this..."
Swoosh!
The sword light flashed, and the head fell to the ground.
The Rainbow Daoist smiled faintly, and the seven-colored light surrounding him disappeared.
He returned to the array.
When he appeared again, it was right in front of a black-robed elder.
"Don't kill me!"
Shen Gongyi's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly retreated.
However, an unknown suppressing force slowed his flying speed, reducing it to a fraction of its original speed.
The Rainbow Daoist swung his sword, and another head fell to the ground.
This scene repeated itself several times.
In a short while, seven people had perished.
The remaining group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators were terrified, no longer caring about claiming the first victory over Crimson Cloud Peak. They retreated frantically.
They retreated swiftly, but the Rainbow Daoist appeared even faster!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
With three flashes of the array's light, the Rainbow Daoist appeared three times, and each time, it represented the powerless demise of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
The four Foundation Establishment Cultivators who managed to escape were like ghosts, fleeing in panic.
Only when they approached their allies did they stop, supporting each other with trembling bodies, breathing heavily.
Having survived the ordeal, their faces were filled with terror.
The eight great cultivators led by Zheng Xian also wore grave expressions.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the seven-colored light barrier that enveloped Crimson Cloud Peak.
A Daoist's face slowly appeared on the barrier, a hundred meters tall, overlooking the earth with an awe-inspiring presence, as if gazing upon a divine being.
"Within the Rainbow Danxia, only I, Min Longyu, shall always prevail!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, please come in and enlighten me!"
