["Elder Luo Lan, according to your instructions, all the Third Realm enemies have been brought underground for resolution! About the reward previously agreed upon..." The cat-faced old woman sinisterly bit Xiao Ya’s head into pieces, spitting out a floor full of nuts, her eyes darting maliciously.]

["Well done, your reward is guaranteed, you may withdraw now."]

[A gentle voice sounded, and a middle-aged man dressed like a scholarly teacher walked out, looking down at you.]

[Oh no, this is a powerful Third Rank Late Stage expert, Zack Loran]

[Emerging together from the secret passage are five Silver Armored Knights, wielding great swords to maintain the array.]

[The five Holy Knights exude an intimidating aura, each a leader within the Third Rank, individually no weaker than the Three Friends of Cold Seasons, wielding the formidable power of "Half-step Third Rank Mid-stage," with one even being a "Dragon Elephant" of mid-stage!]

["Ah, the road to heaven yet you refuse to walk, directly entering Hell without even a door; it doesn’t matter who you are, having dared to interfere in these matters, it’s your path to death!" Zack Loran stated, his mouth full of aphorisms, mastering dialect quite well.]

["?" Your forehead sprouts a question mark, you glance at Elder Luo Lan, then at Old Cat, and your heart stirs.]

[It seems this Old Cat is hiding something from the Red Emperor Army? She clearly knew Xiao Ya before, yet now her words feign unfamiliarity! As clever as you are, you’ve spotted the subtle clue.]

[Good, very good; it seems this Deceitful Servant knows a lot of insider information... Filled with hunting thrill, you grin fiercely at Old Cat.]

[Before you can speak to reveal it, Old Cat becomes alert, gruffly saying: "Elder Luo Lan, this person has two Third-tier Deceitful Servants, very strong, clearly a leader-level Living Cultivator, possibly high up in the Butterfly Lovers Department; we must fight rapidly, preventing the message from spreading, lest prolonged nights bring alarming dreams!"]

["Hmph, do you need to remind me?" Elder Luo Lan’s face fills with displeasure at being interrupted, but the point made is indeed valid, so he waves his hand, as though looking at a dead person, "Burn them."]

[With Luo Lan’s command, the Holy Knights promptly activate the array’s power; earth fire blazes fiercely, with temperatures soaring as if to melt everything in this world.]

["Hmph, you dare boast with such petty tricks? Jingwei!" You roar explosively, releasing formidable endurance.]

["Whew, whew!" "Chirp!"]

[Amidst the piercing cries, the Yellow Dog and the Grey Falcon helplessly watch as Xiaoya’s half-corpsed body is the first to be dissolved, anxiously jumping about, turning in circles; they felt an intense threat, true heat!]

[Without their master’s command, this Corpse King and Yin King looked at you for help once, but seeing you amidst the scorching flames like a stubborn rock, clearly struggle alone; without further ado they soared toward the surroundings, attempting to escape the encirclement.]

[However, amidst explosions, their attempts failed.]

[Corpse Dog couldn’t breach the blockade, Yin God·Le, the ghostly being, couldn’t escape either.]

[Ah, failure! Things seem a little beyond your expectations!]

[With the support of Revelation Array, these six individuals united could fend off even a third-tier peak, no problem.]

[Within barely ten seconds, Yin God·Le was first hence burned alive, on the ground lay three flawless purple Erosion Crystals; you counted the fibrous substances, 18+18+15]

[Corpse Dog, too, lay dying on the ground, about to dissolve, life hanging by a thread.]

[Alas, Revelation Array proved too powerful, ultimately it couldn’t withstand even a minute, exploding like a firework, three crimson arrows dazedly striking around: a final counterattack by Corpse King Needle Scar!]

[Unfortunately, these needle scars couldn’t pierce the array seal, dissolving entirely within the dense light wall invisible to the naked eye.]

[Two mid-stage Evil Spirits perished effortlessly under such formidable array’s pressure.]

[And you, Xu Longxiang, just a mere Third-tier Middle Stage, how much longer can you hold on? It seems today is indeed a doomed calamity!]

[Alas, your life has been as if walking on thin ice; disaster looming, destined for death, your past flashing before your eyes like a fleeting horse in the field: childhood begging and wandering, the gratitude when adopted by foster parents, admiring the senior student throwing herself into another’s embrace...]

[Wait.]

[There’s a question.]

[Why don’t you use "Dai Jiu Yu Yi"?]

[Why go head-to-head with Jingwei Filling the Sea here?]

[Though Revelation Array is powerful, claiming to seal all things, is it not something you can easily break?]

[Are you pretending here with Xiao Ya?]

"..."

[Facing the a bunch of questions from Tai Chu scroll, burning red as if a piece of scarlet glass, Xu Shu waves his hand, "Well, I have a question too: why doesn’t this Corpse Dog use ’Evil Curse Bite’?"]

[Saying thus, Xu Shu looks toward the completely dissolved "Yang God·Corpse Dog," equally transformed into three Erosion Crystals, with a face filled with surprise and confusion.]

[Recalling when he first encountered the bizarre Evil Spirit of Corpse Dog on the wasteland, using its passive talent to possess and eliminate a second-tier "Prisoner" from a kilometer away, Xu Shu remembers it clearly.]

[Back then the "Corpse Dog" was just first-tier, yet this fat dog possesses Third-stage Mid-stage Perfection, and flawlessly so!]

[Thus, when Xu Shu saw Yin God·Le dead, he wasn’t in haste, just waiting for Corpse Dog to die and use Evil Curse to grab an array point, thereby directly breaking the array, perhaps saving a skill.]
