Chapter 540 - 393: Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array, Encountering a Nemesis (Part 2)

With his goal set, Lin Chang’sheng withdrew his Divine Sense from the Storage Bag.

"What should we do next?"

Gu Shan asked Lin Chang’sheng.

After spending some time together, Gu Shan seemed to have gotten used to always asking Lin Chang’sheng what to do next.

"I’ll wait until I gain enlightenment on the Grand Array, then head for the Divine Mountain. There should be a way out there—maybe all the treasures of the Secret Realm are on the Divine Mountain."

Lin Chang’sheng replied, then continued farming Experience Points on the Nine Heavens Soul-locking Array.

...

While Lin Chang’sheng was grinding Experience Points on the Nine Heavens Soul-locking Array, three hundred miles away, Dugu Yifang and Luo Shang had already followed Li Zhu to the High Mountain Tribe.

This High Mountain Tribe was located at the base of the Divine Mountain. To go to the Divine Mountain, you had to pass through here.

"I never thought that Daoist Dugu could actually control Demon Beasts! With that, we could unite all the tribes in this Secret Realm. Then finding Lin Chang’sheng will be a piece of cake!"

Li Zhu was genuinely surprised when he saw Dugu Yifang could control Demon Beasts.

As long as a Demon Beast’s cultivation was lower than Dugu Yifang’s, he could control it at will.

"As long as I can kill that bastard, I’ll do whatever you say, Elder Li!"

Right now, Dugu Yifang hated Lin Chang’sheng with every fiber of his being. If it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t have ended up in this miserable state.

"Don’t worry, he’ll definitely die here. The only exit is on top of the Divine Mountain, and my High Mountain Tribe has taken over the exit. He can dream of leaving!"

Li Zhu said confidently.

When Li Zhu and the others arrived at the High Mountain Tribe, another chief had already discovered Zhu Tianzhi and his group and brought them back.

When Li Zhu saw Zhu Tianzhi, he was overwhelmed with emotion.

"Sect Leader Li, you—you’re still alive! I—I failed your trust!"

Zhu Tianzhi cried out in anguish.

Li Zhu had entrusted the Nine Poison Sect to Zhu Tianzhi, but now the sect had been wiped out right under his watch.

With no other option, he opened the Secret Realm entrance and fled inside.

Who would’ve thought he’d run into Li Zhu here?

"I know, I already know everything that happened. It was all that beast Lin Chang’sheng’s doing. Since he dared to enter the Secret Realm, there’s no way he’s leaving alive!"

Li Zhu patted Zhu Tianzhi on the shoulder in comfort.

Because Divine Sense was suppressed here, otherwise, they would’ve already found Lin Chang’sheng’s location.

At this point, all they could do was wait for Lin Chang’sheng to show up.

He believed Lin Chang’sheng wouldn’t stay in the Secret Realm forever—he’d definitely come to the Divine Mountain.

...

[Nine Heavens God-locking Array: Perfection!]

Half a day later, the Nine Heavens God-locking Array finally reached Perfection.

[Detected: Nine Heavens God-locking Array (Perfection), Thunder Fire Divine Burning Array (Perfection). Fuse into a new Array?]

The system panel popped up another prompt.

"Fuse!"

Lin Chang’sheng chose to fuse without hesitation.

The new Grand Array after fusion would be even more powerful.

[Nine Heavens God-locking Array (Perfection), Thunder Fire Divine Burning Array (Perfection)—fusion starting... fusing... fusion complete. Obtained new array: Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array!]

"Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array?"

Lin Chang’sheng thought to himself, that name alone sounded lethal as hell.

[Detected: Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array. Spend 8,000 Immortal Crystals to simplify?]

The system panel prompted him again.

"Simplify!"

Good thing Lin Chang’sheng had plenty of Immortal Crystals on hand, otherwise he couldn’t afford to simplify anything.

Now these Immortal Techniques and Arrays were getting more and more powerful; every activation cost thousands of Immortal Crystals.

[Great Dao is Simple: Simplifying Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array... simplifying... simplification complete. Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array == Observing the Heavens!]

"Observing the Heavens?"

Lin Chang’sheng thought with a chuckle. Now that’s a pretty humane simplification!

He immediately began looking up at the sky.

Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array Experience Points +1!

Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array Experience Points +1!

...

In the next instant, the Experience Points for the Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array started skyrocketing.

Seeing Lin Chang’sheng staring at the sky in a daze, Gu Shan and Xiaonan couldn’t help but be curious.

"What the hell is that guy doing?"

Gu Shan asked, intrigued.

"Looks like he’s searching for something?"

Xiaonan guessed.

"Could he be looking for a way out of the Secret Realm?"

Gu Shan speculated aloud.

If Lin Chang’sheng told them he was training an Array right now, they’d probably lose their minds.

Practicing Arrays by staring at the sky? This had to be the first time they’d ever heard of that!

[Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array: Perfection!]

Half a day later, Lin Chang’sheng’s neck was sore from gazing skyward, but the Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array finally hit Perfection.

A torrent of memories flooded his mind—all information about the Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array.

Right now, he was like an old Array Master who’d set this Grand Array for thousands of years—he understood it completely.

"This array can actually borrow the power of the heavens to suppress all things in the world. If I add Celestial Thunder and Fiery Flame into the Array Plate, its power will be even greater!"

Lin Chang’sheng marveled—this array’s might was just overbearing as hell.

Not only did it keep all the features of the Nine Heavens Soul-locking Array, but it also fused the power of the Thunder Fire Divine Burning Array.

If you get trapped in this Grand Array and want to live? You can forget about it!

Lin Chang’sheng took a deep breath, then stood up.

With Gu Shan and Xiaonan protecting him, he had no worries about being interrupted.

"Let’s move out!"

After maxing out the Grand Array, Lin Chang’sheng was ready to head for the Divine Mountain.

There was definitely a way to leave this place in the Divine Mountain.

Maybe the treasures of the Secret Realm were also on the Divine Mountain.

Since Divine Sense couldn’t scout further away, Lin Chang’sheng released a swarm of Bloodthirsty Taotie.

These Bloodthirsty Taotie were like Lin Chang’sheng’s extra set of eyes, checking out the road ahead for him.

With Bloodthirsty Taotie clearing the way, Lin Chang’sheng and his group would move a lot safer.

In a place as unknown as this, caution is the name of the game.

Even though their overall strength wasn’t exactly weak.

"It’s three hundred miles from here to the Divine Mountain!"

Lin Chang’sheng silently noted as he checked the map he got from the old man’s Storage Bag.

Back in the day, three hundred miles was just a blink for him.

But stuck in the Secret Realm now, Lin Chang’sheng had to take it slow—better safe than sorry.

So, those three hundred miles took him a full three days before he finally arrived at the base of the Divine Mountain.

"This should be the High Mountain Tribe,"

Lin Chang’sheng noted the mark on the map, spotting a massive tribe encamped at the foot of the Divine Mountain up ahead.

Some Bloodthirsty Taotie straying too close were directly cut down by tribe members guarding the High Mountain Tribe.

Their cultivation here was obviously way stronger than those in the Qingshui Tribe.

Lin Chang’sheng didn’t dare waltz right in. He set up the Ten Directions World Destruction Array outside first, just in case.

Once the array was ready, Lin Chang’sheng used his Divine Sense to scope out the power of the High Mountain Tribe.

If they weren’t that tough, he could force his way through. If they were too strong, then he’d think of another plan.

"Huh? They’re here too?"

When Lin Chang’sheng unleashed his Divine Sense inside the High Mountain Tribe, he suddenly discovered several all-too-familiar faces.

Dugu Yifang, Luo Shang, and Zhu Tianzhi were all there.

Besides those three, there was an old man clad in green robes, an overwhelming aura radiating from him.

Clearly, a Late Stage of Mahayana powerhouse.

"Finally, he’s here!"

Right as Lin Chang’sheng found out about them, that old man in green seemed to sense something too. The corner of his mouth curled into a smile as he quickly left the tribe, tearing through the sky toward the distance.

Dugu Yifang, Zhu Tianzhi, and the others immediately followed.

"So, they sensed me?"

Lin Chang’sheng was taken aback. He didn’t expect their Perception to be this sharp.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

The next instant, several figures landed right in front of Lin Chang’sheng.

"You little bastard, we meet again!"

Dugu Yifang said coldly—let’s see if he could escape this time?

"So, you found reinforcements and now you think you can flex?"

Lin Chang’sheng replied icily.

This old guy in green had an impressive cultivation—already at the Late Stage of Mahayana—but good thing he’d already set up his Grand Array; who’d win was still up for grabs.

"Cut the crap, today is the day you die!"

Zhu Tianzhi shouted harshly.

If it weren’t for that bastard Lin Chang’sheng, he never would’ve risked coming into the Secret Realm. He had to kill Lin Chang’sheng to vent his hatred.

"That depends... if you’ve got what it takes."

Lin Chang’sheng sneered. Today, none of them were getting out alive!
