The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 529
There are all sorts of array techniques. There were some who focused on bewitching the senses and were able to imprison those trapped in the doorway to death. There were others who killed the array, and anyone who entered would face an endless barrage of killing traps. There are also some arrays that are primarily meant for defense and can be as solid as iron.
Mountain Arrays Great Arrays usually focused on defense, and the one set for the Imperial Palace of Fire Country was like that. Although it was a Sixth Level array technique, it would be extremely difficult for even a Infant Spiritual Tier cultivator to force his way in. That was because once a gap was made in the defense, it would quickly close. As such, only if one was strong enough to create a gigantic hole could he calmly pass through.
At least it should be one in the mid-period Spiritual Infant Tier.
Ling Han's battle prowess was indeed incredible, but he had yet to reach the point where he had broken through the boundaries of the Spirial Infant Tier. As a result, he was unlikely to break through through this huge Great Array Technique by force; however, revealing this Array Technique was a completely different story.
Using the Eye of Truth, this Array Technique was practically fully exposed to his eyes.
"The easiest way to uncover arrays is to destroy some of the formation eyes inside, but they are located within the array, so this solution is at odds with itself … unless there's someone inside who's helping me. However, there were also others more troublesome means of deciphering the array, and it was to attack several weak areas at the same time to create a temporary gap, "Ling Han muttered to himself, saying, the sun, moon, and stars were surprisingly appearing in his view. "If I use the Annihilating Dragon Star Arrow to strike all seven points at the same time, I believe I should be able to make a huge gap."
He took a deep breath, his arms stretched out as if he was pulling a bowstring. Suddenly, seven points of light appeared which turned into seven arrows. Then, an arrow body that seemed to be formed from light also appeared, covered with many characters. They, too, were not included in any of the current cultivation systems, and exuded a terrifying ancient aura.
The Eye of Truth combined with the Annihilating Dragon Star Arrow; these two Mystical Powers working together were practically the perfect match!
For some reason, everyone in the Imperial Palace felt an endless coldness around them, as if they were going to suffer a terrible tragedy in the next moment.
Xiu, as Ling Han's five fingers of the right hand loosened, seven arrows of light immediately shot towards the Great Array. After being released, seven arrows of light shot out in seven different directions, moving as fast as they shot at the star. No one could understand the direction of their journey.
With such a shot, this arguably meant death to whoever was targeted. Because under normal conditions, who would maintain the entire body of Origin Power over themselves?
Weng, weng, weng, arrows shot out, but they did not hit the Imperial Palace directly. A protective screen appeared, blocking the progress of these arrows, but countless cracks appeared on this light screen and suddenly shattered as if it was made of fragile porcelain.
Ling Han smiled. With his Eye of Truth, this Great Array could not even withstand a single strike. It was instantly unraveled by one bow and its seven arrows.
Of course, this was also because the Annihilating Dragon Star Arrow was extremely powerful. Otherwise, even if one managed to find the weak spots, he might not be able to parse the array either. After all, these weak points were only relatively weaker than other regions, so how could they be penetrated by random attacks?
However, the eye of the formation for the array had yet to be destroyed, and with the continuous encounter of the surrounding Spiritual Qi, the reconstruction of the Great Array had begun.
"Let's go!" Ling Han had no time to practice his archery skills here. He immediately picked up Hu Niu and entered the Imperial Palace. At this moment, even if the Great Array was reactivated, there was not much use. Ling Han had already entered the array, and it would be much easier for him to uncover the array from within — he only needed to destroy the eye of the formation.
"What!?"
"He really opened the line and went in!"
"That's impossible, right? This Great Array was something that perhaps even an elite Spiritual Tier cultivator might not be able to break through."
Everyone exclaimed in shock. It is truly amazing for the masses. Ling Han was only at the Flower Blossom Tier, so how could he possibly instantly uncover the protective array for the Imperial Palace? Could it be that this fellow's battle prowess was even more terrifying than a Infant Spiritual Tier cultivator?
What are they supposed to do now? Even their huge protective array was useless; who else could stop Ling Han now?
"Young friend, if there's anything you need to say, please tell me. I believe that no matter how big the problem is, I will be in a position to make a decision." At this moment, an old man appeared. He looked to be in his seventies or eighties, as if he could close his eyes in eternal sleep at this moment. There was actually a raging fire in his head.
This was not a real flame, but a Martial Intent Flame.
What does the appearance of Flames of Martial Intent imply?
But doing that, no matter who the winner was, their vitality would be severely damaged. They did not have many more years to live in the first place, and that would cause the rest of their lifespan to fall to the bottom. It was even possible that they could die directly after this battle.
"Old emperor!"
Everyone kneeled down, very honorable.
This was the Flame Emperor from four generations ago, and was also the only Blossom Flower Tier cultivator in the Fire Nation. He forcibly broke through to the Flower Blossom Tier with the help of the nation's strength and only within the Fire Country would he have the lifespan of a Flower Blossom Tier cultivator. Otherwise, the moment he left the borders of the country, due to the fact that he had lived for nearly three hundred years, he would definitely rot away soon.
In North Desolate, the Cultivator of the Blooming Flower was a "heavenly tool" whose job was to protect the country and defend against external enemies.
Ling Han is too strong. One step was enough to uncover the Great Array, forcing the old Emperor to appear. It has indeed reached the most critical time period for the Fire Nation.
"I only have one request, immediately stop the excavation of that ancient mineshaft," Ling Han said.
The old emperor looked somewhat hesitant.
That old mineshaft could allow Tier Pedestal Tier cultivators to see some hope of breaking through – that was the hope for a real breakthrough. What does that mean? That meant that there would appear more than one major elite of the Blooming Flower Rate in the Fire Nation! Then, the Fire Country could definitely have a chance to wipe out all eight other countries and bring the entire Desolate North under the banner.
More land and more citizens will lead to a stronger nation power. Then, there would appear even more Flower Level Cultivators in the Fire Nation. Even if the mineshaft had been emptied, the nation's strength would not have dried up, and the great Fire Nation Empire would thus be passed down for generations.
Too many were involved in this, so the old Emperor naturally hesitated.
"All right, I agree!" After just a moment, the old Emperor nodded in agreement.
. . . If they did not even manage to get through the dilemma they were facing right now, what was the point of deliberating about their future?
Ling Han said calmly, "I hope you don't give me half-hearted approval. If you ..." He took out the Devil Birth Sword, and with a wave, nineteen flashes of Sword Qi were fired. Every flash of Sword Qi was covered with a simple ancient character.
It was a bone mark he got from the Old Mongoose, and could add to one's attacks. They were arguably considered Mystical Powers themselves.
His slash shot up into the sky, and a terrifying sight appeared. It was as if the sky itself had cracked, and there really seemed to be an empty and black void.
Too terrifying, the power behind this slash was so powerful that it was unfathomable!
Everyone couldn't help but shiver in fear. It was nineteen flashes of Sword Qi; was this person really human? Ten flashes of "Qi" would be considered a ruler at the top, so what concept are nineteen flashes?
At the Blooming Flower Level, he was completely invincible!
This time, the old Emperor had completely abandoned the naive notion of falsely approving Ling Han's request, allowing a protracted time of — when eight or ten Blooming Flower cultivators emerged from the Fire Nation, leaving behind a, he was going to fight Ling Han back then. But now, he realized that even if there were eight or a hundred Blooming Flower cultivators, they would only surrender themselves to death, let alone eight or ten of them.
"I wouldn't dare!" He ensured his most humble attitude and tone.
Ling Han nodded, turned around, and left. He wanted to properly interrogate Na Zhi Yan.
