“This kid is indeed arrogant!”

“That’s ridiculous! How can you mortal ants imagine the scope of our knowledge, immortal spells, and Dao techniques??” Standing next to Wonderous Spell High Holiness, the grey-robed middle-aged man said furiously, “You are so arrogant. Do you really think so little of our eight major immortal families?!”

He yelled, “Daoist friends, who is willing to come with me to break this sh*t array?!”

“I’ll go with you!” Wondrous Spell High Holiness said proudly.

“Daoist Friend Guyin, how can you leave me out?!”

Three immortals floated out of layers of thick clouds. In addition to the grey-robed middle-aged man and Wondrous Spell High Holiness, there was a lean old man with white hair.

Obviously, he intended to show off his cultivation strength when his robe billowed out, and extremely aggressive immortal spiritual energy shot out with howling noises and swept all over the land!

All the people around him including Wondrous Spell High Holiness looked serious. “Daoist Friend Cangjie… I’ve not seen you for years, and your cultivation strength has grown so much?!”

The white-haired old man stroked his beard and laughed, “Just a little; just a little.”

The elders around him all congratulated him, “Congratulations to you for advancing to a level above us! Congratulations!”

“It seems like we have the Heaven’s help in breaking this array!” Wondrous Spell High Holiness said with a sneer, “Daoist Friends, let’s enter the evil array and see what tricks it has!”

“I agree!”

While laughing, the three Daoists used various spells and entered the array in the form of three rainbows.

“I’ll show these mortals what true immortal power looks like!” The white-haired Cangjie High Holiness said,

“I’ve brought many rare treasures to deal with that demon monkey.” The grey-robed middle-aged man who was known as Guyin High Holiness said, “However, the demon monkey somehow has got the news about our power and doesn’t dare to show its face. Today, we’ll first defeat the so-called Ten Heavenly Masters!”

They walked forward in the array with hands clasped behind their backs. Then, they came to the array gate with a sign on it, and words on the sign read [Desolate Array].

“You’re right!” Cangjie High Holiness said in a cold voice, “The people who built this array dare to block our way with it. Those people deserve to die! I’ll enter this array first and see what power it has!”

With a wave of his big sleeve, mist and clouds that were floating before him suddenly gathered to one spot and formed a vague white jade bridge which extended into the array, carrying him on it!

“Good Dao technique!” Wondrous Spell High Holiness exclaimed in appreciation, “Condensed by connate pure essence, the jade bridge can repel and block all evils. This way, we won’t be touched by any filthy stuff in the array. I’ll see what the Desolate Array can do about it!”

The three Daoists stepped onto the jade bridge and entered the array. Inside the array was a dark space full of gloomy white flags.

Lamps dotted the place like starry light or floating ghosts in the dark night…

The land was covered by divinatory runes, and light pierced the surging black clouds. A Daoist sat on the Eight-Trigram platform cross-legged, waving a white flag. Ten straw dummies stood in ten directions.

Under the wavering white candle light, the straw dummies looked very creepy.

The Daoist waved the white flag, and gloomy winds rose in the array, sweeping black sand from the ground onto the jade bridge. Instantly, black stinky smoke rose from the jade bridge. Like the howling of fierce ghosts, the gloomy winds brushed the three immortals’ faces and made them unable to use any of their superpowers. Then, the three stumbled as their visions blackened. They almost fell from the bridge.

As the creepy and chilly wind entered their bodies through the pores, the immortal spiritual energy inside them was rendered useless, and their superpowers couldn’t be used! They couldn’t understand why this gloomy presence was so weird and creepy!

The presence didn’t enter their physical bodies or their meridians, but their souls got fuzzy and were about to come out of their bodies!

At this moment, they shivered and looked horrified!

There were countless Dao techniques and superpowers in the world, but they had never seen such a weird and fierce array, such a ferocious killing method, and such aggressive attacks!

At this moment, it seemed like all the people who had entered this array lost their life energy as the presence of nature swarmed toward them.

“No!” Their expressions changed again. The power of this creepy array went beyond their imaginations! If they stayed one more moment in it, even their immortal souls would be drawn out!

Almost at the same time, the three Daoists unleashed their best spiritual treasures and circulated all their immortal spiritual energy, flying out of the array in great horror.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The immortals outside the array were talking about how the three of them were going to break the array when the three shot out of the array like lightning bolts. Pale-faced and panting, they were scared out of their wits.

Astonished, the other elders and high holinesses asked, “Daoist friends, what happened?”

When they calmed down, they held their breaths and concentrated on checking their bodies with pale faces. After checking, they said, “I thought that they had some abilities, but it turns out that they were just bluffs!”

“Right!” The grey-robed middle-aged Guyin High Holiness said, “The array is indeed creepy but couldn’t hurt us. Anyway, it has some power, and you guys can…”

At this moment, the chilly white light of the three lamps inside the Desolate Array swayed, and then one of them extinguished!

Before he could finish his words, Guyin High Holiness stumbled, and his face turned as white as a dummy made of paper!

“Daoist Brother Guyin, what’s wrong?!”

“I’m fine!” Guyin High Holiness shook his head and said, “Maybe I over-consumed my spiritual energy when I got out of the array.”

Three days later, the three Daoists almost dozed off before the array as they talked about ways to break it.

About ten days later, most of the light in the Desolate Array had dimmed.

One day, Wondrous Spell High Holiness was talking with others about ways to break the array when his vision turned black.

Colorless all over his body, he fell to the ground silently like a cold corpse. No breath or sound came from him anymore!

Such a creepy death sent chills down the spines of all the members of the eight major immortal families on the battleground!

“What… what’s happened?!” The other immortals saw these three die without any warning in person!

Only a short time had passed since they came down to the Lower Region, but they had lost all the heaven spirit generals and earth spirit generals. Now, even the three elders had died in such a creepy way.

“Their souls were drawn out!” One elder checked the three bodies and said with a dark expression.

“What?!” Almost everyone, including the members of the eight major immortal families and over 20 elders, all retreated several steps as if they had seen a deadly viper when they heard these words.

When they looked down on the array again, the look in their eyes had totally changed as if they were looking at a group of fierce ghosts set on taking their lives.

The 36 heaven spirit generals and Four Direction Spirit Generals had just entered the array to check the situation, but they couldn’t even get out of it. They had all died in the array!

The powerful Wondrous Spell High Holiness, Guyin High Holiness, and Cangjie High Holiness had suddenly died in a creepy way after they got out of the array less than a month ago!

Horror and endless panic appeared in their eyes!

Such things would be unbelievable even to their own ears, but they had to believe the truth before their eyes.

Regardless of how great their cultivation strength was, they couldn’t find a way to deal with this array. After staying here for more than one month, their casualties grew higher and higher!

…

The Heaven and Earth opened as if the initial chaos had just been cleared!

Immortal mist floated down with wondrous immortal music which resonated with the Heaven and Earth. Seven-colored light rose, and rare phenomenon appeared!

In the depths of Heaven, a group of immortals stood in one line behind a figure. Wearing a feather headpiece, the figure sat in a gold carriage decorated with dragon and phoenix engravings of gold and jade. This figure looked as glorious and noble as the Heaven and Earth.

A gaze fell from the Ninth Heaven.

“Immortal Master… Is he an immortal master!?”

“The Immortal Master has descended?!” All the immortals of the eight immortal families exclaimed.

Their horror and alarm instantly turned into elation and thrill. Some of them even said in a fierce tone, “Now that the Immortal Master is here, the array will be broken instantly!”

From the sky, a voice said mildly, “As the Immortal Master said, today’s immortal tribulations that you are experiencing had been foretold as early as 10,000 years ago. It is only a weak soul-separating array. Your troubles will be over after you enter the array and take back the souls.”

“Today, I’ll give you the Saint Spiritual Gold Stamp, the ultimate treasure from the Saint Emperor Palace. Once you cast this gold stamp, the array will be shattered. Do it now!”
