Previously, the Beast King dared not act, thanks to my own show of force and its fear of the possible annihilation of our miniature world. However, the Thunder Tribulation has now passed, and my realm has ascended, making it impossible for me to destroy this place.
There’s no doubt, the Beast King will certainly send in a Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast, and the three of us will be trapped in a deadly game. The chances of finding even the smallest hope of escape are slim. The Beast King won’t spare us any. This is a fact that is painfully clear to all of us. Despite wracking our brains, we are at a loss as to what to do.
After a while, Lowen Shingo suddenly suggested, “Maybe we should abide by the old saying, ‘catch the leader first to defeat the group’. We can launch an attack on the Beast King the moment we step out. Given its injuries and the fact that it hasn’t fully recovered, we might stand a chance to capture it and make a safe escape. This seems to be our only plan. If not, we might just wait for our deaths.”
“That won’t work. Although the Beast King hasn’t fully recovered, it certainly has regained at least half of its strength over this period. That’s still equivalent to the strength of a Half-step Saint Seat. We three are too weak. The moment we approach the Beast King, we’re likely to be wiped out. This plan simply won’t work.”
Bart Cloud was the first to object. He argued that it would be better to stay in the small world. After all, the biggest threat they would face here would only be a Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast. The Beast King definitely wouldn’t dare to enter. If they could endure for a century or so within this world, they might be able to ascend to the Saint Seat and no longer fear the Beast King.
As Logan paced back and forth, an idea suddenly dawned on him, “What if the safety of this small world was in our hands? Would the Beast King dare to act then? It might even lower its stance and let us leave peacefully. After all, the mini-world is a supreme treasure for the Demon Beast race. Our lives don’t compare to it.”
“This world may be small, but it extends for tens of thousands of miles and is full of countless rules and spiritual energy, not to mention it’s also a Spirit Gathering Array. Even if we three were to continuously wreak havoc here for ten days, we wouldn’t be able to completely destroy it. We simply lack the power to pose a significant threat.”
Lowen Shingo let out a bitter smile, thinking that Logan was overly imaginative. His plans wouldn’t be effective and might even accelerate their deaths. As soon as they start destroying the world, the Beast King and the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast would definitely show up in person to kill them.
Logan shook his head and added, “That’s not what I meant. What damage could we mere humans do to this place? The moment we leave, we become passive, and the Beast King wouldn’t fall for such a trick. In order to deal with the root problem, we need to set up an array.”
“With ten thousand Spirit Stones, I can set up a Destruction Array. The moment I invoke the array, it will explode with tremendous force capable of leveling a radius of millions of miles. Even this mini-world couldn’t withstand it, regardless of its rules. My array is superior, so even if we are out of Inner Alchemy, we won’t need to worry about the Beast King reneging on its word.”
Bart Cloud agreed immediately since he had witnessed the strength of Logan’s array before. Even the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast was helpless against it and almost became its victim. Now that Logan was planning to set up an array again, he was sure of its increased power. freewebnøvel.com
After considering this suggestion, Lowen Shingo concluded that it was feasible. After all, the Beast King and his group didn’t understand arrays. So, even if they wanted to dismantle Logan’s array, there would be no use. This way, the initiative lay in their hands, and they could also buy more time, while the Beast King’s side couldn’t.
“There’s one more thing, in case the Beast King becomes desperate and would rather forsake the supreme treasure of the Demon Beast race to kill us, our plans would be in vain. To avoid that, maybe we can also set up a Teleportation Array. If we sense any wrong move from the Beast King, we can immediately use the array to escape.”
Logan thought for a moment and added, then looked to Lowen Shingo, “I can grant teleportation authority to both of you, but not to the Daoist guard following you. By now, he must have been captured by the Beast King. If we have to, he will have to be sacrificed. You should prepare yourself in advance.”

“I understand.” Lowen Shingo nodded. His Daoist guard had been with him for ten years and had always served him faithfully. The thought of potentially losing him was hard to bear, but he also recognized the fight for survival was not an easy one, and that not everyone could be saved.
His heart was heavy with grief, knowing deep down what Logan meant. Despite Logan’s indirect wording, there was a high chance that his Daoist guard would die since the Beast King turning sides was highly unlikely. Plus, they had been in this world for so long, his guard might have been gone by now.
For common major sects, Daoist guards were mere sacrifices that could die for the Young Master anytime. But Lowen Shingo was a compassionate person, not the cold-blooded kind. If he really couldn’t save his Daoist guard, he would set up a tombstone and perform rites every year in memory of him.”
“Enough of this. We should not waste any more time,” Bart Cloud anxiously interjected. “The Thunder Tribulation has already passed. Who knows when the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast will enter and attack us. We should hurry up and set up the array so that we’re ready for the upcoming crisis.”
“I don’t have a single Spirit Stone on me now.” Logan chuckled awkwardly. After recently setting up several arrays, his Spirit Stones had been consumed rapidly. Now he was penniless and thus had to rely on Bart Cloud and Lowen for the Spirit Stones.
After all, they were facing a life-and-death situation and the Spirit Stones would be of no use if kept apart. Using them for preparation was the most important thing right now. Setting up the Destruction Array required ten thousand Spirit Stones, and setting up the Teleportation Array needed another twenty thousand. Thus, the two of them needed to gather thirty thousand Spirit Stones for him to set up the arrays.
Without hesitation, Lowen Shingo took out all his Spirit Stones, “I have a total of thirteen thousand Spirit Stones. This is all the savings I have accumulated since my childhood. Besides this, I only have some divine weapons, which I suppose won’t be of much use at this moment. Let’s hope that Bart Cloud can make up the rest to reach the required amount.”
“I only have ten thousand Spirit Stones.” Bart Cloud took out his Spirit Stones, his face expressing helplessness and seriousness. If he had known earlier, he would have prepared more and not end up in such a predicament. Sadly, he could not foresee the future, so his Spirit Stones ended up short of the required thirty thousand.
Scratching his head, Logan thought for a while, “That’s alright, if we’re short of Spirit Stones, we can make up the number with divine weapons. But let me tell you in advance, once a divine weapon is used, even if the array is dismantled, the divine weapon cannot be reclaimed. It will lose its spiritual energy and quality in an instant and become an ordinary weapon.”
“Does that matter when our lives are at stake?” Lowen Shingo gave him a glare and emptied all his possessions. He had over thirty divine weapons in all. The quality of most was simply good, not great. He even thought of using his Dharma device, but Logan flatly rejected that idea.
Logan insisted that it was not necessary to go that far. A Dharma device was a cultivator’s most cherished possession and their best weapon for survival and combat. They had more than thirty divine weapons already, and combining them with those in Logan’s storage space, they would have enough for sure.
