Chapter 246: The Audacious Array Master
As soon as everyone arrived, they entered the concealment array, and it became clear to all what Lan Xiaobu's plan was.
Lan Xiaobu's idea of taking the initiative to attack was actually about setting up a chain of entrapment and killing arrays.
The difference was that instead of waiting for the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army to pass by, they were now actively moving to the doorstep of the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army or setting up arrays along their inevitable path.
Everyone was thrilled.
Lan Xiaobu's approach was indeed completely different from Xing Yongkai's previous methods.
You Yihe even said, "Sect Master, if we're setting up a killing array, I know a better location. There's a canyon just a few thousand miles from the Star Fortress Secret Realm..."
Lan Xiaobu waved his hand, "If we do that, we might as well not come out at all. I'm setting up the array right now in the most open area outside the Star Fortress Secret Realm. Fortunately, the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army hasn't left yet. Although I don't know why they haven't left, I know it's not entirely a good thing. Now, everyone, wait for my signal. Don't come out without my message. I'm worried about being discovered."
Lan Xiaobu himself was a grand array master.
While setting up the arrays, he would always keep himself within a concealment array, so there was no need to worry about being discovered.
As Lan Xiaobu placed one array flag after another, within just a day, the outline of the first fifth-level entrapment and killing array began to take shape.
Lan Xiaobu then realized the difference between fifth-level and sixth-level arrays.
His skill had already reached the level of a sixth-level array master, but his array formations hadn't caught up yet.
Understanding this, Lan Xiaobu didn't hesitate and stepped into the realm of a sixth-level grand array master.
This made Lan Xiaobu ecstatic.
He had originally felt that fifth-level arrays were somewhat insufficient.
Now that he had entered the realm of a sixth-level grand array master, he didn't hesitate to take out all the array flags and start setting up the arrays anew.
The first array to be set up was naturally the sixth-level concealment array, followed by the sixth-level Spirit Locking and Essence Suppressing Killing Array, which he valued the most.
Within the Spirit Locking and Essence Suppressing Killing Array were the sixth-level illusion array, the sixth-level entrapment array, and the sixth-level killing array.
The most arrays set up were the sixth-level killing arrays and entrapment arrays.
After the first large sixth-level killing array and entrapment array were set up, Lan Xiaobu began to continuously set up smaller entrapment and killing arrays, then connected these arrays completely using array flags.
This formed a true sixth-level chain of killing arrays.
Above this true sixth-level chain of killing arrays, there was also a concealed anti-flight array.
Sixth-level arrays and seventh-level arrays were different.
Many fifth-level arrays linked together could form a chain of arrays that was not inferior to sixth-level arrays.
But no matter how many sixth-level arrays were linked, they couldn't form something close to a seventh-level array.
This was a matter of quality, surpassing the scope of quantity.
What puzzled Lan Xiaobu was that he had spent nearly twelve days, and the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army still hadn't come out.
If he weren't certain that the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army hadn't left, he would have thought he had spent over ten days setting up an array for nothing.
After setting up all the arrays, Lan Xiaobu immediately had Gu Feihe and others enter his chain of killing arrays.
"Sect Master, I can't see through this array at all. If I were trapped in this array, I wouldn't need anyone else to take action; the killing array would finish me off," Gu Feihe said as soon as he entered the array, immediately sensing a terrifying killing intent surrounding him.
His divine sense extended out, but everything was a blur.
"Elder Gu, now assist me in implanting spirit veins. I've only implanted one mid-grade spirit vein so far, which is far from enough," Lan Xiaobu said, handing a ring to Gu Feihe.
Being so close to the Star Fortress Secret Realm, he needed the help of Gu Feihe, a Immortal King, to quietly implant more spirit veins.
...
"Master, Qin Qi has stepped into the realm of a fifth-level grand array master. He just set up a fifth-level spirit gathering array. We can go now," Qiao Aomu brought the most exciting news to Zuo Yurong, who had been anxiously waiting.
Zuo Yurong jumped up.
Although he forced himself to calm down, waiting here aimlessly wasn't productive.
Fortunately, the extra ten-plus days of waiting weren't wasted.
With endless resources, he had finally managed to cultivate a fifth-level grand array master.
A fifth-level grand array master, aside from the one in the Great Desolate Immortal Sect, was probably only found in the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance in this region.
Almost immediately, Zuo Yurong summoned all the flag bearers, elders, and protectors of the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance.
Once everyone was seated, Zuo Yurong didn't wait for questions and laughed, "I have great news to share. We can set off immediately, and we now have an additional fifth-level grand array master."
The strong members of the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance in the hall were all excited.
They had also been forcing themselves to stay calm, and it was impossible not to feel aggrieved.
Previously, dealing with the Great Desolate Cultivator Alliance Army was like disciplining a grandchild.
Now, dealing with a small immortal city, they had to wait and endure here?
But not enduring wasn't an option.
If they accidentally entered someone else's fifth-level chain of killing arrays, the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army could be completely annihilated.
A fifth-level array could kill cultivators below the Great Yi Immortal realm almost without the array master's involvement.
As for killing Golden Immortals and Immortal Kings, as long as the array master led strong cultivators, it could be done easily.
Wei Xiying also laughed, "Hahaha, I'm sure the Great Desolate Immortal Sect would never expect us to attack from behind their sect this time. While they're confronting our people in front of their protective array, our Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army will have already broken through the Great Desolate Immortal Sect's protective array."
Wei Xiying's words excited everyone.
They even started rubbing their hands, eager to annihilate the cultivators of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect and the Mu Bei Great Immortal City.
Over ten days ago, they had finalized their plan.
The 100,000-strong Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army was divided into three parts.
The main force, led by the fifth-level grand array master Qin Qi and two Immortal Kings, would take 70,000 cultivators straight to the back of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect.
In Qiao Aomu's view, no matter how capable Lan Xiaobu was, he couldn't possibly set up various arrays outside the protective array at the back of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect with great effort.
Besides the main force, the other two parts consisted of 10,000 cultivators attacking the Mu Bei Great Immortal City and 20,000 cultivators heading straight for the protective array in front of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect in the usual manner.
Of course, no matter which part, they wouldn't step into the entrapment and killing arrays Lan Xiaobu had set up beforehand.
For mortals, this plan would be unrealistic, but for an army of cultivators all above the True Immortal realm, the detour plan wouldn't even take much time.
One after another, grand immortal ship warships lined up in the square outside the Star Fortress Secret Realm, and the 100,000 cultivators entered the immortal ship warships in batches.
As the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army gathered and prepared to leave, the Tianhong Cosmic Alliance and the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance immediately knew.
However, they didn't interfere, knowing what was going on.
Not long ago, the Mu Bei Great Immortal City, primarily inhabited by Great Desolate cultivators, had annihilated tens of thousands of the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army.
This time, the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance Army was going for revenge.
Once all 100,000 cultivators had entered the immortal ship warships, Zuo Yurong declared, "Not long ago, a place called the Mu Bei Great Immortal City used a killing array to annihilate tens of thousands of our Great Profound Universe cultivators. Today, we are going for revenge. No matter who it is, killing our Great Profound Universe cultivators is unacceptable."
"Kill..."
Waves of killing intent that could change the winds and clouds surged into the sky.
Even for mortals, a group of 100,000 would have overwhelming killing intent, let alone an army where the lowest cultivation was at the True Immortal realm.
"That's right, we'll kill them directly," Zuo Yurong waved his hand, "Let's go."
Dozens of immortal ship warships shot out of the Star Fortress Secret Realm like dozens of rainbows.
Zuo Yurong, full of vigor, looked at a seemingly drowsy man beside him and said, "Qin Qi, you're a fifth-level grand array master. The life and death of our Great Profound Cultivator Alliance is in your hands. Last time, because we didn't have a fifth-level grand array master, tens of thousands of us were annihilated in the Mu Bei Great Immortal City."
The man bowed, "Alliance Leader, rest assured. Although I, Qin Qi, have just stepped into the realm of a fifth-level grand array master, even if I can't set up ordinary arrays, I can still recognize them. Huh..."
"What?" Zuo Yurong's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly thought of something terrifying, but before he could say it, he felt the warship beneath his feet sink and then get pulled down.
"There's an array here..."
Qin Qi shouted hoarsely.
At this point, no one needed Qin Qi to explain.
Everyone knew what was happening.
At this moment, everyone's face turned pale.
The reason they had delayed for over ten days was to avoid stepping into the enemy's killing array.
But now, they had just left the Star Fortress Secret Realm and had already entered the enemy's killing array.
Qiao Aomu's hands were trembling.
He had thought of everything but never expected the enemy to be so audacious as to set up a killing array right at their doorstep.
"Qin Qi..."
Qiao Aomu had just called out two words when a series of rumbling sounds came, and endless spatial blades of light began to kill indiscriminately.
At this moment, numbers were a joke.
Only strength mattered.
Qin Qi grabbed a few array flags and threw them down, but his hands were also trembling, and his lips were quivering, "This is a sixth-level chain array, I, I..."
Lan Xiaobu kept throwing out array flags while saying, "Everyone, follow me. Let's kill that old fool Zuo Yurong first."
In the sixth-level chain killing array, it was impossible to extend divine sense.
In this grand array, only one person could control everything, and that was Lan Xiaobu.
Blades of light several zhang long tore through the chain killing array, effortlessly killing countless Golden Immortals and Profound Immortals, who couldn't even resist.
No matter how large the immortal ship warships were, they were now just decorations.
Everyone was running around like headless chickens or randomly attacking with their magical treasures.
Zuo Yurong's face was ashen.
He summoned a giant peak and coldly said, "Qin Qi, find a way out immediately."
