Chapter 280 - 171: The End of Calamity
Chapter 280: Chapter 171: The End of Calamity
Faced with An Ruoxi’s words, except for Master Mu, the other members of Hongtian’s team were at a loss.
If not for such an extraordinary item as a Quasi-Immortal Artifact, perhaps An Ruoxi really had no need for a deadly cover-up.
“It’s just that…”
“Boom~” As An Ruoxi finished speaking, she had already begun to strike at the Array before her.
The might of the Cold Marrow Saber caused the Array to tremble violently, instilling a trace of fear in everyone’s hearts.
If this strike landed on oneself, even if not fatal, it would lead to serious injury.
“Let’s first break this Array together. At the very least, we need to find a way to safely leave before considering anything else,” An Ruoxi said to a few disciples of Guzhu City after her strike.
“Indeed, without a way to leave, all the treasures found will be of no use,” Master Shuimo nodded, and rallied the others to attack the Array together.
Soon, under the joint assault of the crowd from Guzhu City, the central Array shook incessantly.
On the side, Hongtian’s team maintained vigilance for a long time, watching An Ruoxi execute each strike with full force, and eventually agreeing with her words. To leave the ruins, they must find the Spatial Transmission Array at the core place.
“Since there is no Quasi-Immortal Artifact, our previous assumptions are nullified, let’s get started!” After pondering for a moment, someone said sternly.
Furthermore, someone glanced at Master Mu with a hint of discontent flashing in their eyes.
In their view, Master Mu was presumably stirring discord between Hongtian’s team and the disciples of Guzhu City to avenge her mother.
She unreasonably caused the death of five teammates,
such treacherous intent is reprehensible!
Perhaps this fulfilled Master He’s divination; if they continued opposing An Ruoxi for no reason, they might all perish in the end.
The next moment, the six-member Hongtian team also began to attack the Array.
Hidden behind the pillar, Ghost Shadow observed everything silently.
Li Jizhou then descended his Divine Soul into a puppet, maneuvering it to gradually approach the vicinity.
There were a total of eleven cultivators, among whom An Ruoxi was at Golden Core Peak and wielded a Tier Two Spiritual Treasure, causing the most damage to the Array.
Next were Master Duobao, Master Shuimo, and two other Late Stage Core Formation masters from Guzhu City, each employing their methods to blast the Array, their combined might equaling An Ruoxi.
Then came Nie Jinghong, who was at the Middle Stage of Golden Core and owned a Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact, launching attacks.
Such an assembly would be nearly peak strength in the Eastern Desolate Southern Domain without a Nascent Soul appearing.
However, even against a Tier Four Middle Level Protective Array, it was still challenging.
It couldn’t be accomplished in one go; only persistent efforts could prevail.
The eleven of them attacked incessantly for nearly a month.
“Click!” On this day, the previously unmoving Array finally emitted a soft sound.
A crack appeared on this side of the Array.
Elated, the group hurriedly intensified their assault.
After another half-month,
“Bang!” The fissure in the Array suddenly burst open, and a torrent of breath surged out from within.
It was finally breached!
Yet in the next instant, several members of Hongtian’s team turned pale.
Even the remaining individuals from Guzhu City wore stunned expressions.
It was because of the aura emanating from within the Array, causing their souls to tremble.
A careful perception revealed that the aura originated from the Jade Seal on the high platform inside the Array.
“No, this aura is far too terrifying; it cannot be from just a Spiritual Treasure!” Master Duobao, most knowledgeable about Spiritual Treasures, exclaimed in shock.
As he was perplexed, the place suddenly transformed.
The originally brightly lit underground plaza began to snow.
Cuts of cold wind blew in gusts.
Soon, a halo of white light emerged around An Ruoxi and expanded several times over in a moment, enveloping everyone present in a world of ice and snow.
“Master Huaiyu!” The members of Hongtian’s team were instantly shocked.
An Ruoxi slowly ascended into the air, her aura instantly returning to its peak as she gazed icily down at the ten below.
“Martial Uncle, is this… your Golden Core Dharma Aspect?” Master Shuimo, caught within the Dharma Aspect domain, gazed at the abruptly changing An Ruoxi above and felt a tinge of unease.
An Ruoxi remained silent, merely raising her hands slowly and lifting her head.
In an instant, the entire world seemed to freeze over.
The next moment, she suddenly swung her hands downward.
“Puff puff puff!” Crystal-clear snowflakes shot forth instantaneously.
Unleashing an indiscriminate attack on the crowd below!
“An Ruoxi! You’re still intent on silencing witnesses!” Master Duobao hurriedly summoned several Spiritual Artifacts to defend himself.
“I told you, she’s a venomous woman, she was lying just now, the Guanghan Seal inside must be that Quasi-Immortal Artifact! She merely used us to help her break the Array faster,” Master Mu screamed frantically.
“Martial Uncle, it’s us!” Caught off guard, Master Shuimo and a few others were struck by the snowflakes, causing blood to blossom from their bodies.
Yet irrespective of everyone’s cries below, An Ruoxi hovered mid-air without pause.
The snowflakes fluttered, and the cold wind surged once more.
The ten below spared no effort to resist.
“Little Martial Aunt, are you truly so ruthless? Is it really as Master Mu claims?” The several from Guzhu City were even angrier than Hongtian’s team at this moment.
“Master, it’s me, Xiaoyun, how can you bear to kill me?” Baiyun Zhenren could not believe it.
An Ruoxi took a deep breath, her gaze sharp as she looked at the Guanghan Seal within the Array just an arm’s reach away.
“Indeed, she spoke truly. I constantly think of revitalizing my Baiyue Divine Dynasty; this unforeseen opportunity to enter the ancient dynasty’s ruins is surely the guidance of the Celestial Dao!”
“Born with an Innate Cold Soul Spirit Body, inheriting the bloodline of my ancestors, I must seek revenge for them and eradicate the Cangming invaders.”
“Now that I have the Guanghan Seal and the ’Guanghan Skill,’ given a millennium’s time, I will surely be able to realize my wish and reclaim the Central State.”
“For the glory of my ancestors, for the Baiyue Divine Dynasty… I have no choice but to act this way!”
