Chapter 165 - 113: Tri-Combined Defensive Killing Array, Shaking All Sects

The other side.

Seeing no sign of the grand array’s operation, Jiang Changqing and others felt an unspeakable sense of loss, with some even slowly turning away, leaving silently.

However, at this moment.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh——!

Feeling the connection between the array base and array flags completed, Ye Xiaofan didn’t hesitate any longer, immediately swinging the apricot-yellow flag in his hand three times consecutively.

When swung for the third time.

"Rise——!"

Only hearing Ye Xiaofan’s soft shout, he injected a thread of Spiritual Power into the apricot-yellow flag. Suddenly, the flag in his hand became taut as a bowstring, moving automatically without wind, making a flapping sound.

Simultaneously, countless array flags hidden in the darkness moved in unison with the apricot-yellow flag.

The next moment.

Boom!

Terrifying auras began to surge, a tidal wave of immense Power of Heaven and Earth awakened at that instant.

Moreover, within the dilapidated ancient city, a visibly large defense array rose from the ground, shooting into the sky, emanating heart-pounding auras that were truly terrifying.

At the instant that oceanic power was awakened, everyone’s spirit shook, as if struck by lightning, rendering them motionless.

The disciples of Divine Sword Sect, including Jiang Changqing, raised their brows sharply, staring blankly at the large defense array enveloping the entire ancient city.

The entire grand array descended like a glass cover, protecting the whole ancient city within. In just moments, the grand array became like a bottomless pit, frantically absorbing the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth, using it to power the array.

With the array absorbing the boundless Heaven and Earth power, everyone was dumbfounded by the frightening energy fluctuations it emitted.

"Such terrifying energy fluctuations." Lin Changkong couldn’t help but speak, his eyes full of astonishment.

At this moment, all senior disciples felt their breath quicken, eyes full of shock, with what seemed like endless thunder raging within.

They realized that the aura of the awakened grand array was terrifying beyond measure, its contained power being several times more frightening than the previous array master’s setup.

Furthermore, Jiang Changqing and others clearly sensed that the power continued to rise rapidly, reaching six to seven times its previous state in the blink of an eye.

Even more shocking was the faintly discernible killing intent within, as if one could be slain under the array in an unguarded moment.

In the endless expanse of the ancient dilapidated Border City, the moment the defense array of Divine Sword Sect’s station rose skyward.

Countless talents and beauties from other sect stations were awakened, all looking far into the sky above that ancient city, bewildered and astounded.

Yunlan Sect Station.

In another similarly ancient and dilapidated city.

Several figures almost simultaneously shot into the sky, standing atop Yunlan Sect’s station, staring blankly at that terrifying grand array.

"Divine Sword Sect’s defense array? Hasn’t their array master already fallen? How can such a terrifying grand array still be set up?"

"It’s a Tier Four Defense Array. To be precise, it should be a Fourth Tier Level Five Defense Array."

"What did you say? A Fourth Tier Level Five Defense Array?"

Several Yunlan Sect array masters stared blankly at the grand array, their faces filled with emotion and shock.

"Could it be that Jiang Changqing brought in an array master from elsewhere from Divine Sword Sect?" Someone frowned and said.

Yet, before those words fell, someone shook their head slightly, "Not likely. Nowadays, all ’battle domains’ are in urgent need of array masters, no one wants to send their ’battle domain’ array masters to another ’battle domain’, unless those in charge of the ’battle domain’ wish to put their ’battle domain’ at risk."

Currently, all ’battle domains’ face similar situations; even among disciples of the same sect, they’d wish their array master could split in two, let alone loan them to other ’battle domains’. Immediately, someone refuted.

Let alone, array masters capable of setting up Tier Four arrays are the most scarce resource in all ’battle domains’ right now, it would be foolish to loan such array masters elsewhere.

In the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain’, array masters are not particularly rare, but high-tier array masters are simply insufficient. Especially outside the ’battle domain’ where Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is barren, the role of array masters becomes more critical. Disciples of both Righteous and Demonic Dao prioritize killing enemy high-tier array masters in mutual battles.

"Not an array master relocated, could it be...?" In Yunlan Sect, someone suddenly raised their head, their eyes full of disbelief, "Could it be a newly arrived disciple?"

At these words, everyone was full of astonishment.

Since the possibility of borrowing an array master from another ’battle domain’ is slim, there’s only one possibility, a newly arrived array master from Divine Sword Sect.

Yet, a newly arrived array master being able to set up a Fourth Tier Level Five Defense Array, how could this not shock the several array Dao prodigies of Yunlan Sect?

And those array masters proficient in array Dao further saw the differences of that defense grand array, all stunned.

Even the few responsible from Yunlan Sect were taken aback.

Someone from Yunlan Sect promptly spoke, "Send someone to Divine Sword Sect’s station immediately to inquire, who set up this array?"

Instantly, a disciple from Yunlan Sect soared into the sky, rushing towards Divine Sword Sect’s station.

Yet shocking was far from restricted to Yunlan Sect people.

Surrounding Divine Sword Sect were countless sect stations, including Li Yang Sect, Qinghe Sect, and Lingyun Sect.

Moreover, disciples from these sects were equally unbelievable, sending people to gather information.

In these extraordinary times, the emergence of a high-tier array master is no exaggeration to say it would make every sect full of envy, and even seeking friendship.

After all, if one can invite a high-tier array master to reinforce their station’s array, it only benefits without harm. Although array masters aren’t lent among ’battle domains’, within the same ’battle domain’, as long as the relationship is strong enough, calling one over for reinforcement is not difficult.

For a time, disciples from Hundred Sects all dispatch people.

During such intervals where people from Hundred Sects come.

The Divine Sword Sect station was frozen in place.

Numerous senior brothers and sisters of Divine Sword Sect looked foolishly at the grand array overhead, feeling chills down their spine.

Even Jiang Changqing stood staring blankly at the slowly rotating grand array above.

Currently, the defense grand array is essentially stable, its aura reaching peak.

"The defense is ten times stronger than before, my heavens." Lin Changkong looked at the halo overhead, breathing rapidly, was the first to speak out.

Though these senior brothers and sisters may not understand arrays, they can still sense the energy fluctuations within. At present, the defense array repaired by Ye Xiaofan has a defense at least ten times stronger.

Only after a long while did Jiang Changqing return to his senses, looking at the figure with array flag in hand, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, "Junior brother, this... what array is this?"

"In response to senior brother, Tri-Heaven Defense Killing Array." Ye Xiaofan handed the apricot-yellow flag to Jiang Changqing, this senior brother being the ’battle domain’ leader. The choice of who controls the defense array naturally goes to this senior brother to arrange, Ye Xiaofan doesn’t wish to carry the array flag and run around daily.

But when Ye Xiaofan’s words fell, everyone was stunned beyond words, Jiang Changqing too was more shocked, and didn’t immediately take the apricot-yellow flag, but instead breathed heavily "Tri-Heaven Defense Killing Array?"

Even though they didn’t understand arrays, they knew defense arrays generally fall into two types: purely defensive and defensive killing arrays.

As the name implies, the former possesses only defensive capabilities, to put it simply, ’taking hits’, whereas the latter combines offense and defense, once the grand array ’takes hit’, it automatically attacks, obliterating ’attack source’ within a certain range with full array force.

This amounts to a terrifying grand array combining defense and kill; thus, one setting such array possesses scary array Dao achievement.

After quick astonishment, Jiang Changqing and others then posed the more critical, the question they most desired to know: "Junior brother, what tier is this array?"

"Tier Four," Ye Xiaofan truthfully responded.

Yet, at those words, everyone became unsettled. Lin Changkong quickly breathed heavily, "What level Tier Four?"

"Level Five."

Ye Xiaofan calmly replied, but as soon as his words fell, instantly.

"Hiss——!"

"Tier Four... Level... Level Five?"

Many senior brothers and sisters of Divine Sword Sect seemed struck by lightning, all gasped in disbelief.

"Tier Four Level Five Defensive Killing Array, does that mean it can at least resist full power attacks from Demon Sect prodigies at True Self Realm Fifth Layer?"

"Hiss——!"
