Chapter 212 - 212 The Eve of the Great War
212 The Eve of the Great War
“That’s right, that’s right. If I had known that the Elder King would look down on us, I would have gone to the Great Qin Dynasty. If that’s not possible, I could have gone to the Duanmu family!”
“Sigh, since the Elder King is looking down on us, we should leave. Perhaps we can head to another place.”
...“Hmph! To think that I praised the Elder King so much! I didn’t expect him to be such a person.”
As soon as the Venerable said that, many people chimed in. Some even suggested leaving the Taiyi Holy Land and heading to another human faction.
“Everyone, please wait. The Elder King is still in seclusion. Please calm down. If you still have any questions, you can ask me,” Ling Ran walked over. She was bathing in purple holy light, and she looked like a fairy who had descended into the world. No one dared to violate her.
“Greetings, Holy Lord!” The elders of the Taiyi Holy Land bowed and revealed Ling Ran’s identity.
A Venerable walked out and cupped his hands at Ling Ran. He said in a deep voice, “Holy Lord Ling Ran, we’ve been here for a long time, but the Elder King has been ignoring us, and the Taiyi Holy Land has not arranged any tasks for us tomorrow. We’re all here to participate in the battle. It can’t be that you want us to stay here and watch the show?”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Yeah! We’re here to fight the ten thousand ancient races, not to sit back and relax.”
“The ten thousand ancient races exterminated my family. I swear I’ll not rest until I die tomorrow. Even if I die, I’ll drag a few down with me.”
“Holy Lord Ling Ran, we’re not afraid of death. Even if you arrange for us to fight Sages, we won’t even frown.”
“That’s right, that’s right. We want to fight. We’re going to fight a bloody battle to the end!”
“…”
As she listened to these people’s words, Ling Ran felt a surge of emotions in her heart. She activated her Zixia Divine Body, and she looked like a celestial. The aura of a level 6 Venerable was unleashed, which calmed everyone down.
“I can understand your feelings,” She said in a deep voice, “But the Elder King said that he is still studying the battle array. He needs you to wait for a moment.”
“Studying a battle array? Could it be that the Elder King wants us to cooperate in a battle array on such short notice?” One of the Kings asked. He felt that Ling Ran was just giving them an excuse. After all, it was not easy to cooperate in forming a battle array. No matter how easy the array was to understand, it would still take several months for all participants to be familiar with it. Therefore, Ling Ran’s words were simply just an excuse.
Ling Ran understood what this person meant. Although she did not dare to believe it either, the person who said this was the Elder King, so she had no choice but to. After all, he was the Elder King!
“Since the Elder King has said so, he will definitely be able to do it. Please believe in the Elder King and wait patiently for now,” Ling Ran replied softly, but her eyes were determined.
Hearing this, everyone looked hesitant. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, in the end, they decided to believe the Elder King and continued to stay.
Outside the great emperor’s palace, a few stones floated in the air, forming a powerful battle array. A big black pot continued to perform divinity in the air, making the array simpler without decreasing its power.
“Big black pot, are you done? It’s almost dawn,” Qin Chen growled.
The big black wok shone with holy light, and the array patterns of the battle array kept changing, becoming increasingly simpler. However, the power of the battle array did not decrease at all, and it still exuded a very strong power.
“Why are you so anxious? This battle array was left behind by the Supreme Emperor Huang. Although it’s not an Emperor array, it’s not something that can be easily formed. Furthermore, I have to simplify it for you so that even Kings can easily master it. How can I do it in a short time? Instead of urging me, why don’t you go and prepare the Divine Spirit Source that you promised me?” The big black pot grumbled and continued to focus on performing divinity, no longer paying attention to Qin Chen.
At this moment, the big scorpion appeared in the air with a pair of storage rings in his hands. He smiled at Qin Chen and said excitedly, “Elder King, I got this from Supreme Sage Qin Tian. There are a total of 100 million Divine Spirit Sources and many valuable spirit mines inside.”
“So many!” Qin Chen exclaimed.
A few days ago, the big black pot suddenly mentioned that it knew a battle array that could allow five Sage Kings to join forces and display the combat power of a Supreme Sage. Moreover, it didn’t require any practice and could be used straight away
Hearing this, Qin Chen was naturally overjoyed. However, the big black pot had never been one to do things for free. It immediately asked for 100 million Divine Spirit Sources from Qin Chen. No matter how much Qin Chen bargained, it refused to back down.
Although Qin Chen had checked in for so many years and was very rich, he did not have that many Divine Spirit Sources either. Thus, he could only ask the big scorpion to go to Supreme Sage Qin Tian for help. However, he did not expect that the Great Qin Dynasty could really take out so many Divine Spirit Sources. They were simply rich!
“Supreme Sage Qin Tian said that if you have any other needs, you can tell him. The entire human race will help you,” The big scorpion replied softly.
Qin Chen’s heart was filled with warmth. Originally, he didn’t have any sense of belonging to this world, but now, he gradually saw himself as a person of this world. Sometimes, he even doubted that his life on Earth was real.
“Haha, you guys are pretty fast. You’ve collected 100 million Divine Spirit Sources in such a short time. Since that’s the case, I’ll give you the array!” The big black pot let out a soft breath, and the entire pot emitted holy light. The battle array was instantly formed. it looked simple and easy to understand. Even without getting used to it, it could still be used easily.
“So you were long done, and you’re only giving it to me now?!” Qin Chen furrowed his brows. His expression was filled with anger.
The big black pot felt a little embarrassed and coughed, “Well you didn’t give me the Divine Spirit Sources just now, so I naturally have to keep something up my sleeve. What if you go back on your words?”
Qin Chen was speechless. The big black pot was really a ruffian. It was hard to imagine who it had gotten its personality from as Supreme Emperor Huang’s weapon.
After throwing the Divine Spirit Sources to the big black pot, Qin Chen thus obtained the battle array he wanted. He asked the big scorpion to send it to the Great Qin Dynasty overnight, then took a step into the void and arrived outside the Taiyi Main Hall.
“Greetings, Elder King!”
Hearing this, everyone in the Taiyi Main Hall put on solemn expressions. Without any hesitation, they stood up and bowed to Qin Chen as they said in unison, “Greetings, Elder King.”
Looking at the group of unaffiliated cultivators crowding the Taiyi Main Hall, Qin Chen was quite surprised. He did not expect that so many people would come.
“I’ve made everyone wait for a long time. I believe Ling Ran has already told you the reason. Now that the array is complete, I’ll teach it to you!” Qin Chen said and gathered a ball of golden light in his palm. Then, it turned into hundreds of golden lights and shot out in all directions. In an instant, everyone seemed to have learned something. They were shocked and exclaimed in surprise.
“To think a wondrous array exists in this world!” Someone exclaimed.
