Chapter 541 - 394: The Might of the Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array, Slaying Mahayana Experts

"Arrogant!"

Li Zhu shouted, still unwilling to believe that this young man could stir up any real trouble.

With only Late Stage Void Refining cultivation, he could kill him with a single strike.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhu unleashed a palm attack, intending to crush Lin Chang’sheng instantly.

Green mist curled around his palm print—one glance made it clear this was no ordinary strike, laced with deadly poison.

Facing this palm, Lin Chang’sheng naturally did not dare be careless.

BOOM—

But before the palm imprint could land before Lin Chang’sheng, a bolt of celestial thunder blocked it, shattering the palm print to dust as the toxic fog dispersed and vanished.

This attack was unleashed by Xiaonan—Lin Chang’sheng’s companion—erupting with explosive lightning.

Li Zhu was forced to turn his gaze toward the young girl not far away.

At first, he had overlooked her, never expecting the girl could unleash such overwhelming force.

Her power was in no way inferior to his own.

"A Tier Nine Spirit Beast?"

Li Zhu studied Xiaonan for a moment, and was instantly stunned.

After all, the only Tier Nine Spirit Beast in these parts dwelled atop Divine Mountain, where no one could challenge it.

To find another beast of equal power standing before him now—how could Li Zhu not be shocked?

Although he could not slay a Tier Nine Spirit Beast, holding it off for a while was not out of the question.

"You—go kill Lin Chang’sheng! I’ll deal with the spirit beast!"

Li Zhu commanded firmly.

The figures behind him—Luo Shang, Dugu Yifang, and Zhu Tianzhi—understood instantly.

Even if they joined forces, slaying this spirit beast would be difficult; the most crucial target now was Lin Chang’sheng. Whether they killed the beast or Gu Shan was irrelevant.

Luo Shang continued fighting Gu Shan, while Dugu Yifang and Zhu Tianzhi took charge of striking Lin Chang’sheng.

Their cultivation may not match Li Zhu’s and the others’.

Yet both were at the Mahayana Stage—killing Lin Chang’sheng should have been effortless.

Fortunately, Lin Chang’sheng had left himself a backup plan.

The instant the pair charged at him, Lin Chang’sheng decisively activated the Ten Directions World Destruction Celestial Array.

RUMBLE—

A blinding lightning barrier rose across a ten-mile radius, instantly enclosing everyone inside.

"Is this... a Grand Array?"

Dugu Yifang’s heart was seized by terror—when had Lin Chang’sheng set up such a formation here?

From the look of it, this array was no ordinary spell—it was formidable.

"Quick! Kill him now!"

Luo Shang’s heart pounded with dread—every new development felt like the tide was about to turn.

Sure enough—

The next moment, the Grand Array’s divine might erupted; Dugu Yifang, Zhu Tianzhi, Luo Shang—all were struck by splitting headaches, as if their divine souls were being ripped from their bodies.

Even Li Zhu was in agony.

"Not good!"

Li Zhu cursed inwardly, instantly leaping backward and trying to return to the tribe.

But the area was sealed by the array—escaping would not be so easy.

Within mere breaths, their movements became sluggish, their bodies unresponsive, their very divine souls seeming poised to be wrenched free at any moment.

"What a powerful array!"

Dugu Yifang’s pupils dilated in terror.

The others hastily summoned their most powerful Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures to shield themselves.

"Elder Li, what should we do?"

Dugu Yifang was at his wit’s end, hoping Li Zhu would have a way to break the array.

Yet Li Zhu himself could barely hang on—the threat of the array was no less for him.

He had to channel his divine sense to resist the Grand Array’s might while also defending against strikes from the Three-headed Ice and Fire Python, forcing him into a desperate retreat.

"Allow me to break this array!"

Li Zhu shouted, summoning a long spear wreathed in silver lightning, channeling primordial power into it as thunderous divine force erupted and the spear aura pierced skyward.

Li Zhu intended to rely on his immense primordial power, combined with the Upper Grade Celestial Spirit Treasure, to shatter the Grand Array.

RUMBLE—

The spear aura struck the array with fierce force, triggering an earth-shaking eruption.

But when the noise faded, the Grand Array showed no sign of breaking—the attack only stirred a ripple before falling silent.

"What...?"

Even Li Zhu couldn’t believe his eyes—was this array truly so indestructible?

Could a mere youth have set up such a Grand Array?

It looked as if only a master array cultivator who had studied for thousands of years could have laid it down.

His full-powered strike couldn’t break it at all.

Now, Li Zhu cared nothing for the fate of Dugu Yifang and the others—his own escape was all that mattered.

BANG—

Li Zhu smashed his spear into the earth, blasting open a massive pit and leaping in, trying to burrow out beneath the array.

Otherwise, staying in the formation, he felt even his divine soul would soon be torn from his body.

"Elder Li, take me with you—!"

Dugu Yifang cried out desperately.

Luo Shang, however, saw clearly—this old bastard was abandoning them to save his own skin.

They had thought Li Zhu’s cultivation guaranteed escape from any array. But the next instant, tongues of endless fire spread from the ground, twisting the very space with heat.

Li Zhu—who was already tunneling into the earth—was instantly forced back by the searing flames.

His robes and hair had been scorched to charred black by the fierce ground-fire, leaving him in wild disarray.

This was the Undying Dragon Flame Array Foundation Lin Chang’sheng had prepared long ago.

Heaven’s thunder blazed above, Undying Dragon Flame roiled below—escaping this Grand Array would not be easy.

RUMBLE—

Bursting bolts of thunder crashed from the sky, pounding the earth and sending stones and soil flying.
