Chapter 804: Chapter 268: Jade Bell True Array_2
Sun Lingtong lay motionless on the ground, as if his whole body had fallen apart.
The Silent Ghost General quietly looked down at him.
Beside him, the Peanut Ghost General, wearing a paper white flower on his head, spoke for the Silent Ghost General: âLittle Foundation Establishment, my lord asks, how do you feel now?â
âYou should know, just now when you were attacked, there wasnât a single sound, reaching outside the chariot.â
âThis is exactly my method.â
âWith this method, attacking inside White Paper City, even if for half an hour, no one might notice.â
âDo you still think we are going to our deaths?â
Sun Lingtong wanted to retort, but he had no energy to open his mouth, not even able to roll his eyes.
In just a few breathsâ time, every second felt like an eternity, he suffered torment, paying the due price for his insubordinate action.
But at the same time, he had gambled right.
These Golden Core Ghost Generals, despite having the power to crush Sun Lingtong, chose to hold back, unwilling to trigger military rules for a mere Foundation Establishment.
The Yin Soldiersâ army crossed the Yin Yang, finally reaching the Yin Tide Black Swamp Wetland.
The six Golden Core Ghost Cultivators slipped away silently.
Sun Lingtong, with his limbs weak and sore, climbed down from the war chariot, stayed with the main force, and quietly awaited the attack on the city wall.
During this time, he tried again to contact Ning Zhuo, still without success, causing his anxiety to grow.
Fortunately, it wasnât long before the Main General gave the order, mobilizing the entire army to attack the north gate of the White Paper Immortal City.
At this moment, the military art of marching couldnât be concealed any longer.
Sun Lingtong immediately contacted Ning Zhuo, informing him of the intelligence he had confirmed.
Ning Zhuo, who had been anxious due to losing contact with Sun Lingtong for a long time, felt both surprised and relieved upon hearing his response: âBoss, rest assured, I had already requested help before, everything is ready now.â
Sun Lingtong chuckled: âFight well, and donât spare those six Ghost Generals, make sure to deal with them thoroughly for me!â
Ning Zhuo understood the bossâs anger wasnât without reason, his gaze immediately becoming sharp, gritting his teeth: âUnderstood.â
Inside White Paper City, in the alleys near the south gate.
The Peanut Ghost Generalâs ears had turned into blooming flowers, he listened intently: âThe battle at the north gate is fierce, as soon as our army started, they used war chariots to charge the city.â
The Silent Ghost General immediately nodded, raised his hand, and walked in the front.
The other five closely followed behind.
The Silent Ghost General maximized the innate power to all around, allowing them to run at full speed, even breaking through walls, without making a sound.
They broke through in a straight line, soon reaching the paperman giant statue in front of the south gate.
Just as they were about to strike and destroy the paperman giant statue, they heard a young voice: âActivate the formation!â
In the next moment, twenty-eight musical spells suddenly appeared on the ground, while twelve Green Nether Jade Marrow Nails buried deep underground gleamed brightly.
Four thick turquoise pillars with Simurghs holding bells rose from the ground. On these copper pillars, there were carvings of Simurghs spreading their wings, and the protruding beaks held golden threads, from which hung the Seven Treasure Golden Bells. On the bellâs surface were countless intricate talismans, densely packed, with the entirety of the âDivine Sound Exterminating Demon Curseâ etched on the small bell!
The six Golden Core Ghost Generals rushed to the paperman giant statue, as if willingly plunging into the formation, instantly falling into the Array Space.
The six Golden Cores looked around, seeing blue skies and jade land, the sky clear. Four copper pillars occupied the four directions, countless Simurghs circling them.
On the horizon, there stood a humanoid mountain, with large clusters of white clouds replacing the head.
âDamn it!â
âThereâs a trap here!!â
The Golden Core Ghost Generals panicked slightly.
The Silent Ghost General raised a hand, the Peanut Ghost General immediately voiced for him: âSilent boss says, donât panic. Our previous attack failed, and the enemy deployed a formation here, werenât we expecting this?â
The Golden Core Ghost Generals were immediately comforted.
âSilent boss is right.â
âWith formations come breakthroughs, whatâs there to panic about?â
âFirst, probe around, see what kind of formation this is!â
The Ghost Generals attempted to break the formation.
They didnât immediately attack the obvious copper pillars, but instead rushed towards the giant mountain ahead.
However, no matter how far they ran, the distance to the giant mountain didnât shorten.
Some Ghost Generals attempted to pull away from the giant mountain, running backwards, only to find after a long run that the giant mountain appeared behind them!
The Ghost Generals suddenly had a new understanding: âThis formation has the power to distort space, not something that can be breached just by pulling.â
They used several rounds of magic treasures and spells, attacking randomly, but the sky was towering, the jade ground resilient, all to no avail.
Finally, having given up any hope, they braced themselves to attack the four copper pillars.
Simurghs flew around the copper pillars, engaging them in fierce battle, the combat was intense.
The Ghost Generals were under great psychological pressure, knowing they had to race against time, every strike was a heavy blow.
Soon, most of the bronze Simurghs were eliminated.
Their attacks made the copper pillars tremble.
The Peanut Ghost General exclaimed with surprise: âWeâve detected it, these four copper pillars are the Array Eye, break them and the Array Heart and Array Foot will appear.â
Ning Zhuo sat cross-legged in the Array Heart, controlling the formation.
Suddenly, two Golden Core Ghost Generals appeared behind him.
The leader was the Silent Ghost General!
The two Golden Cores attacked with full force, shredding Ning Zhuo into countless pieces of paper and shreds.
âItâs a fake!â The two Ghost Generals felt a chill in their hearts.
âItâs a fake!â Ning Zhuo and Wen Ruanyu, hidden in the dark, also felt a chill, realizing that the Silent Ghost General and another in the formation were all illusions.
This batch of Golden Core Ghost Generals was skilled in tactics; knowing the Array Heart was the giant mountain, the Array Eye the four copper pillars, they still executed tactical deception.
Their strategy was very well executed, but Ning Zhuo also prepared adequately, the âNing Zhuoâ in the Array Heart was merely a portrait substitute by Wen Ruanyu.
âSuch an innate silence!â Ning Zhuo admired inwardly.
He saw clearly that it was actually another Ghost General launching the stealth attack, but it was the Silent Ghost Generalâs innate power that made this operation possible.
âSenior Wen, make your move.â Ning Zhuo reminded.
The actual host of the formation was Wen Ruanyu.
Wen Ruanyu immediately infused mana, activating the Jade Bell, a magic treasure guarding the Array Heart.
The Jade Bell resonated in the air, bursting out waves of sound.
The sound waves transformed into light blue ripples, swiftly expanding, covering the Formation Space.
All Golden Core Ghost Generalsâ mana churned like boiling water, their bodies emitted a pale green light, forcing them to manifest semi-transparent outlines.
This green light didnât interfere with their mana, yet the Silent Ghost General felt a heavy heart!
He secretly exclaimed something was wrong, shocked to find his innate power severely countered. It might still work outside the formation, but inside, he could no longer remain silent.
In this situation, theyâd have to openly attack the formation.
Wen Ruanyu sneered, activating another layer of the formationâs transformations.
The golden bells hanging from the Simurghsâ mouths suddenly rang out, the sound crisp and dense, like rain crashing on tiles.
The four massive copper pillars released intense bronze light. Within the light, they rapidly restored.
The Golden Core Ghost Generals tried to strike, but within the bell sound, their senses reversed, hearing thousands of horses neigh, seeing countless Simurgh illusions, their mana became sluggish, hard to mobilize.
âThis is the Jade Bell True Array!â As the formation displayed its dual power, the Ghost Generals finally uncovered its roots.
âWatch your feet!!â a Ghost General yelled in warning.
But it was too late.
Wen Ruanyu activated the third transformation of the formation, the twelve Jade Marrow Nails at the Array Foot invoked the Jade Deficiency Thunder Skill, piercing the acupuncture points at the sole of the attackersâ feet.
Boom, boom, boom!
Several Ghost Generals immediately had their legs blown off.
âRetreat, retreat quickly!â a Ghost General screamed in panic.
But the Array Space isolated inside from outside; how could they retreat so easily now?
