Chapter 410: The Ruthless Silent God Valley
Before the woman could even mention Luo Caisi to Lan Xiaobu, Lan Xiaobu had already charged into the trapping and killing immortal array.
He had no choice but to rush in.
The gray-robed man had managed to break free from the Linglong Pagoda and was now attacking his void trapping and killing array.
The Linglong Pagoda seemed to have eyes of its own, blocking any spatial attacks within the array, allowing the gray-robed man to leisurely assault his formation.
What alarmed Lan Xiaobu even more was that the man seemed to vaguely sense the location of the void array's core.
This was a huge shock to him.
The core of the void array wasn't fixed, and if the other party could detect it, did that mean they were also proficient in void array techniques? The reason he could stand firm on this void stone and suppress a group of powerful Immortal Court Kings wasn't because of his strength, but because of his mastery of void array formations.
Once inside the trapping and killing array, Lan Xiaobu carefully observed the situation.
He soon breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn't that the other party was also skilled in void array techniques, but rather it was due to the Linglong Pagoda.
The pagoda actively blocked the areas where the void array's core was likely to move.
By randomly attacking the areas the pagoda shielded, the gray-robed man had a chance to hit the void array's core.
The Linglong Pagoda was simply too powerful.
However, if things continued like this, his trapping and killing array would eventually be breached.
Although he had also set up trapping and killing arrays on the void stone, once this array was broken, the ones on the void stone could also be destroyed.
Even Gong Yunqi wasn't a match for this man.
If the void trapping and killing array became ineffective against him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Master Bu, be careful with this guy. He's strong. I can't beat him," Gong Yunqi called out before following Lan Xiaobu into the trapping and killing array.
"Don't attack yet," Lan Xiaobu quickly stopped Gong Yunqi as soon as he entered and summoned the Xumi Scissors.
Gong Yunqi also knew that attacking might not be effective.
He had witnessed the man's strength firsthand.
That pagoda was like an impenetrable shell, too tough to crack.
After observing for a while, Lan Xiaobu said, "This man is indeed strong, much stronger than those so-called semi-gods."
"Is there a way to deal with him?" Gong Yunqi immediately asked.
He knew that even if the man broke through this trapping and killing array, there were others outside.
But if he could break one, he could break the rest.
Without a way to counter this man, he would dominate this place.
Countless people wanted to kill Lan Xiaobu, the Five Universe King.
If this man destroyed all the void arrays on the void stone, Shen Sen and Bai Xun would likely take action against Lan Xiaobu without needing the man to lift a finger.
"There is," Lan Xiaobu replied, swiftly pulling out array flags and tossing them down.
In just a few moments, nearly a thousand array flags were deployed.
He then said to Gong Yunqi, "When I say 'attack,' you strike immediately."
Gong Yunqi understood and gripped the Xumi Scissors tightly, keeping his eyes on the gray-robed man trapped in the array, waiting for Lan Xiaobu's signal.
As the thousand-plus array flags were deployed, the Linglong Pagoda within the void array began to slow down.
Lan Xiaobu didn't reduce the speed of deploying the flags; instead, he accelerated.
The gray-robed man also sensed something was wrong.
He felt as if the Linglong Pagoda was sinking into mud, slowing down more and more, and the space around him was becoming increasingly viscous.
As the pagoda's rotation slowed, the void blades within the trapping and killing array began to slice through the man's body, drawing blood.
This was bad.
The array was trying to lock down his Linglong Pagoda.
Clearly, the master of this void trapping and killing array had arrived.
The gray-robed man desperately tried to retreat into the Linglong Pagoda, but at this moment, he found that his connection to the pagoda had become faint, likely due to the array's influence.
Although the distance to the pagoda wasn't great, it now felt like an insurmountable chasm.
He regretted leaving the pagoda.
If he had stayed inside, he might not have been able to break the void trapping and killing array, but at least he wouldn't be in such a dire and passive situation.
Now, the gray-robed man knew all too well that if his Linglong Pagoda was locked down by the array, he was as good as dead.
He had to find a way to get back into the pagoda.
But before the gray-robed man could even think of burning his essence blood, Lan Xiaobu suddenly shouted, "Attack!"
Gong Yunqi, who had been waiting on the side, couldn't hold back any longer.
The Xumi Scissors shot out, releasing a soul-rending scissor light that locked onto the gray-robed man.
The gray-robed man grunted, intending to kill Gong Yunqi first, but the surrounding space shifted once more.
Now, the space was no longer filled with mere void blades but was instead filled with spatial distortions and tears.
Without the Linglong Pagoda, these lethal forces were a disaster for the gray-robed man.
"Pfft!" A spatial distortion tore through the man's arm, while Gong Yunqi's Xumi Scissors severed both of his legs.
Lan Xiaobu swiftly sealed off all of the man's immortal energy flow.
With a thud, the gray-robed man collapsed to the ground.
Gong Yunqi didn't continue the attack.
He knew that since Lan Xiaobu hadn't killed the man, he must want him alive.
Lan Xiaobu quickly laid down dozens of restrictions, locking the gray-robed man in place before tossing him into his Cosmic Dimension Matrix.
As for the Linglong Pagoda, Lan Xiaobu also sealed it with restrictions and stored it in the Cosmic Dimension Matrix.
Seeing Lan Xiaobu and Gong Yunqi emerge while the gray-robed man who had been chasing her was nowhere to be seen, the woman exclaimed in shock, "You killed Fu Hen?"
Gong Yunqi chuckled, "If we didn't kill him, he would've killed us. Master Bu, I'm going into seclusion now."
With that, Gong Yunqi turned and left without hesitation.
He knew Lan Xiaobu likely had questions for the woman, and he had no interest in listening.
As for the woman's cultivation being higher than Lan Xiaobu's, Gong Yunqi wasn't worried in the slightest.
On this void stone, Lan Xiaobu was the king.
"Thank you for saving me. My name is Nie Xiangyu, from the Xuanhe Immortal Domain," the woman said, performing a respectful bow to Lan Xiaobu.
Without him, she would have been killed.
"Let's talk in my cave. Qiao Xing, take care of things here," Lan Xiaobu said to Qiao Xing, who had just arrived.
Qiao Xing had originally hired a helper to keep watch here, never expecting someone would dare to cause trouble at the Peace Hotel.
"Yes, Immortal Lord. Rest assured, I won't let something like this happen again," Qiao Xing said, clearly anxious.
He had just left when this incident occurred.
Lan Xiaobu waved his hand, "This isn't your fault. Just get a helper here and focus on your cultivation."
If Qiao Xing had been here earlier, he would have undoubtedly been killed.
After instructing Qiao Xing, Lan Xiaobu led Nie Xiangyu to his cave.
He poured her a cup of immortal spirit tea and asked, "This side of the immortal realm is likely facing a tribulation. Out of the 108 immortal domains, almost all have arrived, with only two or three missing. One of them must be your Xuanhe Immortal Domain, right?"
He didn't immediately ask about Luo Caisi, as that would have been impolite.
Since the Xuanhe Immortal Domain was part of this immortal realm, it would be inappropriate to ask about his fiancée before inquiring about her domain.
Nie Xiangyu sighed, "The Xuanhe Immortal Domain is no more. It has been refined into a True Spirit World by someone from the Silent God Valley..."
Hearing this, Lan Xiaobu was furious.
This was utterly inhumane.
How many cultivators were in an immortal domain? To refine an entire domain into a True Spirit World meant that almost no one could have survived.
Wait, Nie Xiangyu knew Luo Caisi, which meant Luo Caisi was also in the Xuanhe Immortal Domain.
If the domain had been refined into a True Spirit World, was Luo Caisi still alive?
At this thought, Lan Xiaobu couldn't hold back any longer and stood up, "Fellow Daoist Nie, how is Luo Caisi now?"
Nie Xiangyu shook her head, and after a moment, she slowly said, "Luo Caisi is my closed-door disciple..."
Lan Xiaobu quickly bowed respectfully, "Lan Xiaobu greets Senior."
Nie Xiangyu hurriedly said, "I can see that you hold a certain status on this void stone. From now on, don't call me Senior. Just call me Senior Sister."
Lan Xiaobu didn't have the patience to dwell on formalities and urgently asked, "Senior Sister Xiangyu, how is Luo Caisi now?"
Nie Xiangyu took a moment to compose herself before speaking, "After rumors of the tribulation spread, as a member of the Xuanhe Immortal Domain, I was naturally anxious. At that time, a senior from our domain sensed that someone was refining the Xuanhe Immortal Domain, and this refinement had been ongoing for over a hundred thousand years. When this news spread, many powerful figures realized why cultivation in the Xuanhe Immortal Domain had always felt strange. Later, that senior gathered all the Immortal Emperors of the Xuanhe Immortal Domain to search for the person refining the domain. But before they could act, they were discovered."
Lan Xiaobu remained silent.
He knew that if the refinement had been ongoing for over a hundred thousand years, the Xuanhe Immortal Domain was on the verge of being fully refined.
Such a critical moment would naturally alert the refiner.
Nie Xiangyu continued, "The person refining the Xuanhe Immortal Domain was undoubtedly a top-tier semi-god, or perhaps even a true god. He easily slaughtered most of the Immortal Emperors of the Xuanhe Immortal Domain, including that senior. At that point, everyone in the domain knew things were dire, and they fled into the void in an attempt to escape. As an Immortal Emperor, I also knew that staying in the Xuanhe Immortal Domain meant certain death. I took a few disciples and fled into the void, including Luo Caisi. But the refiner was too ruthless. Perhaps fearing that news of the domain's refinement would spread, he began hunting down all cultivators from the Xuanhe Immortal Domain. I was naturally among those hunted. I estimate that even if some managed to escape, the chances were less than one in a million."
Lan Xiaobu asked, "Was the gray-robed man at the Peace Hotel the one refining the Xuanhe Immortal Domain?"
Nie Xiangyu shook her head, "No, Fu Hen is far from being that powerful. But one thing is certain: the person refining the Xuanhe Immortal Domain and Fu Hen are from the same place—the Silent God Valley."
(That's all for today's update.
Goodnight, friends!)
