Chapter 1612: Breaking the Array

The clouds disintegrated, and the land around trembled.

A horrifying and boundless restrictive Saint Dao power started spreading above the city.

Thirty-six divine circles rose into the sky and hung there like moons. Each was round to perfection and emitted a clear shine, with black and white intermingling like yin and yang in tandem.

The whole region had taken on a mystical aura of eternal night and day transposing into each other.

Seeing this, the Absolute Yin experts in the city breathed a sigh of relief.

This array, called the Bipolar Fiend Moon Array, had survived two domain conflicts and had protected their City of Protection for infinite years until this day. During the array’s long existence, over a dozen rune grandmasters from the Torch Dragon Clan had enhanced it, resulting in its today’s power.

Its terrifying ability had long been carved into the hearts of every Absolute Yin Camp’s cultivator!

Zhu Yingkong’s expression also visibly relaxed.

As the leader of the Absolute Yin Camp and also a descendant of the Torch Dragon Lineage, he could not be more clear about the power of this restrictive array.

It was no exaggeration to say that they only needed to hide in the city to stay safe. Even the full-strength bombardment of a group of supreme Saints wouldn’t be able to shake it one bit!

In the distance, the Grand Universe Ark came to a halt in the void. When Lin Xun and his group fishtailed off-board, that was the first thing they saw.

“It seems they’ve anticipated our counterattack and assembled all their troops in the city beforehand,” said Shaohao in a serious tone, his eyes calm.

Their party consisted of over thirty supreme Saints. This might not seem many, but they were all overlord existences in this Nine Domains Battlefield.

Especially Lin Xun and Xia Zhi who were virtually invincible!

“That makes it convenient for us. We can execute them all in one go when we break into the city.” Toady was murderous.

“Then it’s urgent to break that array first.” Ruowu and the others all turned to Lin Xun, who was at the head of the group.

“No rush. Just leave it to me,” said Lin Xun casually.

He was already observing the protective array looming over the distant city and making calculations.

“Lin Xun, do you really think you can make light of anyone just because you have a few big victories?”

Zhu Yingkong’s voice thundered all the way from the city wall, his expression bitingly cold.

“I don’t mind letting you know that this array was set up by a group of powerful predecessors from my Torch Dragon Clan. Make no mistake, you lot can’t shake it in the slightest!”

Zhu Yingkong still couldn’t figure out why Lin Xun had chosen the Absolute Yin Camp as his first destination. Did he think that he was easy to bully?

“Speaking of which, I’d like to thank Brother Zhu for what happened in the Flying Immortal Battle Realm. I probably wouldn’t have been able to get rid of those guys in one go if it hadn’t been for your Great Thousand Ghost Array,” said Lin Xun absentmindedly.

He was mentally deducing the mysteries of the city’s array.

“Thank me?” Zhu Yingkong laughed out of utter anger, his face livid. “Fine, how about you rip your head off and give it to me as a thank-you gift?”

“It’s not nice to make people do things they don’t like,” replied Lin Xun. “However, I can spare your life this time to express my gratitude and also to ask you about something.”

Zhu Yingkong was stunned. Then, suppressing the indignation and hatred in his heart, he asked, “Ask me about what?”

Lin Xun said, “Do you know about a quasi-Emperor named Baqi?”

Zhu Yingkong’s pupils constricted. A realization seemed to dawn on him, and he abruptly said, “You are the one who killed Yun Qingbai?”

Lin Xun didn’t deny this.

Zhu Yingkong finally understood the situation completely. “No wonder… If Yun Qingbai was still alive, then your Ancient Wasteland Domain would have been destroyed long ago, and there wouldn’t have been all of these twists and turns for us…”

Shaohao, Ruowu, and the rest were nonplussed. Why would the Absolute Yin people know about Yun Qingbai?

Lin Xun explained through transmission, “Yun Qingbai was a manipulated pawn. His life was not at his mercy, and the person who controlled him comes from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain, a quasi-Emperor named Baqi.”

The crowd finally understood.

Yun Qingbai was like the main character of a tragedy. Everyone couldn’t help sigh in their hearts.

Back then, he had been the most dazzling supreme figure in the entire Ancient Wasteland Domain. With his peerless sword dao and exceptional talent, he had led the world’s trend.

Even as a rival, one had to recognize his strength and excellence.

Who would have thought that his life had been so tragic?

And the culprit was from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain!

“From the looks of this, you not only know Baqi but also are aware of what he did in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. This makes it easy for me,” said Lin Xun, and he left it at that.

He then focused wholly on deducing the array. Naturally, a Saint Dao restrictive array that fully covered a big city couldn’t be easy to break.

But Lin Xun didn’t intend to break it. He only needed to infiltrate it, get past the killing mechanics within, and enter the city!

To his surprise, however, he failed to deduce a safe path after a full incense stick of time.

This put a frown on his face.

“Feeling like there’s nothing you can do, Lin Xun? Hahaha, you have come with great vigor, but you shall return disgraced and dejected!” Zhu Yingkong cackled fearlessly as he watched from the distant wall.

Beside him, the originally tense and uneasy Absolute Yin experts also heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed their expressions.

This brat surnamed Lin isn’t as terrifying as the rumors made him out to be, is he?

One of them even shouted, “Hurry up and get lost so that you don’t embarrass yourself!”

This caused the faces of Toady’s group to grow unsightly. Look at those foreign scumbags, getting all smug already!

“Don’t be anxious, everyone. This city will be broken through today.” Lin Xun’s eyes flashed coldly.

But when he was about to continue his deduction, Xia Zhi next to him suddenly opened her mouth, “Isn’t the grand array right there in front of us? Why are you making it seem so troublesome when we can just trample through it?”

“Being looked down on again by this girl…” Lin Xun smiled bitterly. Whenever he was with Xia Zhi, he somehow couldn’t avoid being underestimated by her one way or another.

Of course, she didn’t do this intentionally. It was purely due to her nature.

“Let me.” Xia Zhi had clearly run out of patience. She stomped the air and leaped out. Shrouded in eternal night, she was like a deity emerging from the darkness.

“Be careful!”

Lin Xun’s heart tightened. He wanted to stop her, but Toady prevented him and said, “Big Brother, Miss Xia Zhi easily breached and killed her way through the Nine Layer Restrictive Saint Array unhindered just several days ago. What’s the harm in letting her try?”

Everyone else nodded.

Lin Xun was stunned. He had never expected that Xia Zhi was being held in such high regard nowadays.

On the clear and bright day, a touch of night curtain suddenly emerged and started spreading like ink toward the distant City of Protection.

Xia Zhi paced in the void in a straight line. In her right hand, the bone spear had appeared at some point with wisps of cool starlight circling along it.

In the company of pitch-black eternal night, white bone, and starlight, the mysterious Xia Zhi emitted a palpitating, frosty aura.

“It’s that mysterious woman?” Zhu Yingkong’s gaze froze as an indescribable chill permeated his heart.

“It’s her, it’s really her…” The officials around him paled, and their faces dropped.

They had also participated in the invasion of the eight domains’ army, and had seen the terror of Xia Zhi with their own eyes!

“No wonder her aura is so eerie and intimidating…” Zhu Yingkong took a deep breath and said, “But not to worry, our Bipolar Fiend Moon Array will knock her head off!”

Suddenly, Xia Zhi flashed out of thin air like a dark bolt. Her speed was incredibly fast.

While charging, she raised the white bone spear like a god raising a heaven-destroying divine weapon.

With a deafening rumble, the dark glow of eternal night between heaven and earth surged into the spear.

And after that—

It fiercely drew a stroke!

Everyone present went through a sudden shift in vision as the whole world turned dark, as if completely covered by the night. There was nothing in the atmosphere but a bizarre sense of silence, emptiness, and death.

In this endless darkness, an illusory figure silently emerged, majestic and infinite like the divine lord of eternal night.

In front of him, the City of Protection was like a knee-high child.

Boom!

The illusory figure fiercely punched out.

The thirty-six moons above the city suddenly glowed, generating a blazing and divine radiance to resist.

Thunderous noises of collision shook heaven and earth. Blinding light pierced through the darkness, releasing extremely destructive fluctuations.

Zhu Yingkong and all the Absolute Yin cultivators trembled as they felt a burst of tremor running through the city for a quick moment.

Then, the darkness suddenly shattered and dispersed. Everyone’s vision regained clarity.

Apart from the tremor and shaking, the City of Protection appeared to have suffered no damage, as did the Bipolar Fiend Moon Array enveloping it.

The only difference was in the thirty-six moons in the sky who had become more and more radiant as they danced along a miraculous trajectory pattern.

“What a powerful array!” The expressions of Shaohao, Toady, and the others changed slightly.

Xia Zhi’s strike was terrifying, but it was still blocked in the end.

Meanwhile, Zhu Yingkong and the experts on the city wall shared a look of relief. They were greatly uplifted that their array had blocked the attack!

“Wait, where’s that woman?” Zhu Yingkong suddenly realized that something was amiss. Xia Zhi was nowhere to be seen. Not even her aura could be perceived.

Shaohao’s group also noticed the abnormality. That’s right, where did Xia Zhi go?

“Over there.” Lin Xun laughed and pointed to the distance. “She has entered the city!”

Everyone looked over, and instantly revealed looks of disbelief.

On a part of the city wall not far from Zhu Yingkong, a figure slowly emerged out of nothingness.

It was precisely the ever mysterious Xia Zhi, who was tall and slender, with a bone spear in her hand.

The city wall was shrouded by that terrifying Saint Dao restrictive array, but at this moment, it didn’t seem to detect Xia Zhi’s existence at all, giving not a hint of reaction!

At the same time, Zhu Yingkong’s expression distorted. His eyes almost fell out, and he looked like he had seen a ghost as he screamed in a cracked voice:

“How is this even possible!?”
