Chapter 64: Laying the Array, Wanting to Slaughter
Before the Book Spirit could react, Li Tianwei had already acted first; he grabbed the Book Spirit and pressed it down onto the Radiant Wheel.
Soon, through heaven-penetrating, earth-enlightening power, the surging spiritual energy filtered by Li Tianwei rushed in.
“Do you know arrays?”
Li Tianwei looked at the Book Spirit and asked.
Seeing Li Tianwei in such a terrifying state — the purple light in his eyes as if it could see through everything — the Book Spirit felt that lies were useless before him. Instinctively it answered.
“Yes.”
“Then go in! Help take charge of this magical treasure. Rember, don’t let anyone escape.”
Hearing this, the Book Spirit nodded at once; Li Tianwei pointed down toward Pan Mountain City.
As the words fell, the Book Spirit felt extre confusion — it had no idea what Li Tianwei wanted it to do.
After all, it was only a Celestial-Art Book Spirit; could it just enter any treasure at will?
Before the Book Spirit could finish its doubt, Li Tianwei raised his hand and pressed it.
The Book Spirit felt as if all of its being were being drawn out; then, under Li Tianwei’s manipulation, it seed to enter another world.
It arrived in a new world where hundreds or thousands of arrays overlapped.
At that mont the Book Spirit felt that a single thought could mobilize the arrays, and a continuous stream of power supported them.
From this feeling, the Book Spirit imdiately judged that the power ca from Li Tianwei.
Only then did it notice that Li Tianwei had reached the late Foundation Establishnt stage, and carried five Dao intents. Most terrifying of all, he seed to have entered a state of unity between heaven and man — using his physical body as a bridge to communicate with heaven and earth, pouring that into this magical treasure.
“Master, master, what are you doing?”
Seeing Li Tianwei’s huge change, the Book Spirit trembled; it had a very bad premonition.
“What else could I do! Do you see below? What grave sins there are! And countless evil demons. As a major righteous sect, as a disciple of the Sacred Land of Lingxu, how could I look on coldly?”
“All my cultivation ca from the Sacred Land of Lingxu, the grand righteous teachings — how could I stand aside.”
“So I’m going to wipe them out completely. I worry they’ll flee while I fight, so you must watch carefully. If one escapes, I’ll settle it with you.”
Li Tianwei stated his plan with a face of solemn righteousness; his tone was full of confidence, as if taking a city alone and crushing it was perfectly normal.
If one ignored the boiling evil resentnt and the dense murderous intent behind him, it might even seem like righteous conduct.
But which righteous path would think to slaughter a whole city alone, even if most of the cultivators inside were demonic cultivators, evil cultivators, or evil demons?
“Ah!”
The Book Spirit was stunned; if it had a body it might have pointed at itself.
“You an I should prevent everyone in that city from escaping.”
The Book Spirit gauged Li Tianwei’s aura — the late Foundation Establishnt stage — and then sensed the dozens of Golden Core cultivators and the two or three Nascent Souls in Pan Mountain City below.
Could this be done??
It would an death.
Before the Book Spirit could question him, under Li Tianwei’s guiding force, the array within the magical treasure that housed the Book Spirit began to operate.
Li Tianwei channeled the Resentnt-Channeling Curse and had first unified heaven and earth, in that previous state of using his body as a bridge between heaven and earth.
The dense resentnt force and spiritual energy of heaven and earth, under Li Tianwei’s Fission Qi-Guiding thod, continuously poured into the Radiant Wheel.
The Book Spirit understood Li Tianwei’s intention and imdiately erected the array; a streak of golden light shone forth.
Beside Pan Mountain City, endless resentnt surged, and a vast evil-resentnt-laden array descended, blotting out the sky and covering the entire Pan Mountain City.
From the arrival of the black clouds to the sudden appearance of the array, Li Tianwei had completed the entire structure within a few minutes.
Watching the Book Spirit busy in the Radiant Wheel laying out arrays, Li Tianwei nodded with satisfaction and flung it into the sky.
“The Book Spirit is far more useful than the System.”
Li Tianwei didn’t forget to poke the System.
[……]
Mocked for no reason, the System was powerless to strike back.
At this mont in Pan Mountain City, Qin Yueying had already stepped out of the main hall.
She looked at the great array that covered the city and the sky that had turned a pitch black-purple.
“Could it be the Heaven-Demon Cult? Are they going to move against the Blood Fiend Sect?”
This was Qin Yueying’s first thought; after all, not long ago the vice leader of the Heaven-Demon Cult, Hun Yuan, had gone mad and destroyed two Blood Fiend outposts. If the Blood Fiend Sect’s leader had not intervened to repel him, who knew how much trouble it would have caused.
Now with the sudden great array and the terrifying evil intent and rising resentnt, like a great demon’s arrival, Qin Yueying’s first thought was this.
When Qin Yueying sent out her divine sense, she froze and stared into midair.
“No — this is…”
At that mont she had already recognized Li Tianwei, and puzzlent filled her face.
Through the shared information among the kindred evil demons, Qin Yueying had known sothing of Li Tianwei: he cultivated a thod more sinister than those evil cultivators, and his cultivation was only mid-Foundation Establishnt.
Now this fellow had already reached the late stage and had such a powerful array and such dense resentnt.
At that mont Qin Yueying seed to understand why those who had fallen before had said this guy looked even more evil than they were.
It really did seem so.
“Thought I’d co find you — didn’t expect you to hand yourself to .”
Qin Yueying smiled broadly; on that beautiful face the flirtatious charm blood.
Just as Qin Yueying was about to act, she seed to recall sothing and froze.
“No? Although he has the combat power of a mid-Nascent Soul, he’s alone. So boldly laying an array over Pan Mountain City, and it’s a trapping array — what does he intend?”
“Maybe he has a trap, waiting for to fall in.”
“He can’t be thinking he’ll take a whole city by himself!”
“I won’t be like those two of my kind; I must be cautious.”
Qin Yueying thought truthfully.
“Too green to make bite.”
At this mont Qin Yueying felt excited by her own cleverness.
Occupying this body, Qin Yueying commanded the two other Blood Fiend elders stationed here to act.
The great array caused the whole Pan Mountain City to descend into chaos.
To the cultivators of Pan Mountain City, such an imnse array and the sky-darkening resentnt looked like the end of days; it seed a great demon had co.
Many people began to run for the city’s outskirts, but when they reached the edges they found they could not get out.
The dense evil-resentnt force wrapped and overlapped everything; the whole array nearly imprisoned all of Pan Mountain City.
Strangest of all, so who understood arrays discovered that this array differed from anything they knew.
The whole array looked layered, each loop interlocking with the next, strangely overlapping in an unusual form that felt difficult to dismantle.
This completely unfamiliar array seed to have taken another path — a brand-new thod of arranging arrays.
“What on earth is happening?”
“Who is moving against the Blood Fiend Sect?”
“Could it be the Heaven-Demon Cult? Recently their vice leader did attack many Blood Fiend outposts; rumors were rampant.”
“It’s said the Blood Fiend Sect ruined so layout of the Heaven-Demon Cult.”
Those who had channels of information made such connections.
Unfortunately, no matter how they conjectured, they could not imagine soone so audacious and with such a warped mindset that they would think to take a whole city by themselves.
