Family Rise by Daily Intelligence-Chapter 460 - 230: Corpse Refining Technique, Star Coffin, Insect Tide Assault
After a short while.
Tens of thousands of Tai Chi Locusts swarmed in from all directions. Their numbers rapidly increased, resembling a rolling snowball, and soon turned into a massive black tide, rushing towards Lingxiao Mountain.
"Insect tide attacking the mountain!"
Fu Molan reacted immediately.
A technique was cast onto the ancient bell beside him, and three urgent chimes resounded. The disciples of the War Hall seated at the six array hubs heard the sound.
With a loud shout:
"Activate the array!"
They formed a group of seven, stepping with Star Step, six standing at the vertices of a regular hexagon. As their cultivation techniques operated, a star-lit rune appeared in the palms of the six, and their combined powers gathered upon the seventh person in the center.
An aura equivalent to Quasi-Foundation Establishment instantly spread out.
Accompanied by his casting of a technique.
With a booming sound.
A Fire Python burst forth, its tail flicking as it soared upwards, lunging towards the insect tide.
"Zhi zhi zhi"
At the same time.
A sharp shriek erupted from behind the insect tide.
The Tai Chi Locusts, originally about to be swallowed by the Fire Python, suddenly flapped their wings and swiftly changed direction, causing the Fire Python’s attack to miss.
Bang, bang, bang!
The Tai Chi Locusts that avoided the Fire Python swooped down onto the mountain’s defense array like black raindrops.
Every Tai Chi Locust that crashed into the array unleashed a small wave of black spiritual power. Although each Tai Chi Locust’s strength was insignificant, the combined attack of tens of thousands of them caused the array to start wavering.
Seeing this scene at the central array, Fu Molan.
Made a decisive decision:
"Jade Lotus, hold the array!" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Saying this.
His body flashed.
And he immediately rushed out of the mountain gate.
To deal with this insect tide, the Tier Two Insect General commanding the Tier One Tai Chi Locusts must be slain.
The moment Fu Molan appeared.
Five Insect Generals, as if smelling blood, buzzed and all changed direction to charge at Fu Molan, with a flash of golden light at their tails.
The sound of air being pierced resounded.
And countless Golden Needles transformed from their attacks shot towards Fu Molan’s face.
Five Tier Two Insect Generals.
Fu Molan dared not underestimate them, and the Ancient Luo Fan in his hand whistled out.
Ting ting ting!
The Golden Needles struck the Ancient Luo Fan, and the Dawn Light surged, blocking most of the needles, but still, over a dozen flew in unabated.
Fu Molan’s pupils shrank.
The Ancient Luo Fan was a Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact, indestructible, yet it couldn’t block the Golden Needle Technique of these Tier Two Insect Generals.
Fu Molan pointed at the Dark Patterned Thunder Bamboo Cauldron floating in front of him.
One by one, Dark Patterned Thunder Bamboos materialized.
Ting ting ting!
The Golden Needles clashed with the Thunder Bamboo.
The Thunder Bamboo dissolved.
And the Golden Needles scattered as well.
Fu Molan changed his technique once more, causing the Dark Patterned Thunder Bamboo Cauldron to tremble violently. The Tier Two Insect Generals charging forward suddenly found themselves drawn into a vast bamboo forest.
"Zhi zhi zhi"
The Tier Two Insect Generals sensed something was amiss.
They immediately flapped their wings again, and mysterious runes on their wings flickered, directing the attacking Tier One Tai Chi Locusts to turn and swarm densely towards Fu Molan.
Tens of thousands of Tai Chi Locusts.
Covered half the sky.
A mass of blackness.
Seeing this from the array hub, Fu Yongqi’s expression changed.
Surrounded by such an insect tide.
The hall master is in peril!
He decisively activated the Taiyan Cannon in his hand, which shot up into the sky and exploded with a crackling sound.
The brilliant Five-Colored Spirit Light dyed the sky in a sheet of colorful dawn light.
This was the clan’s rescue signal.
If any Fu family members nearby saw it, they would surely come to assist.
At the central array, Jade Lotus, seeing Fu Molan trapped, initially intended to go out and assist but then noticed a swarm of insect tides approaching not far away.
Dense, endless!
This insect tide clearly had the intent to not rest until this mountain gate was conquered today!
If she left the array.
Not a single clan member left in Pingshan County would survive:
"What to do?"
Jade Lotus, due to strange illness from childhood, had been confined within the household and protected by Fairy Lady Cai, which gradually shaped her aversion to combat.
Even though she had broken through to the Foundation Establishment.
She had no experience dealing with enemies, much less handling the current predicament.
However.
Reason told her.
At this moment.
She absolutely could not leave the Mountain Protection Array.
"This is the end!"
Positioned at one of the six array hubs, Fu Yongqi also felt his scalp tingle. Though they had been in the Ten Thousand Mountains for years with the War Hall, they had never encountered such a situation.
Many disciples already felt despair creeping in.
If the hall master were to fall in battle.
They couldn’t possibly hold off the insect tide’s attack for long with just a few of them.
At this critical moment.
The six squad leaders coldly stated:
"Don’t forget the War Hall’s motto, until the very last moment, never give up. Everyone, pull yourselves together. Now that the insect tide is without the Insect Generals’ command, we must weaken their strength as much as possible, otherwise, it’ll waste the hall master’s efforts!"
"Yes!"
All selectees of the War Hall.
Were not afraid to die, and those who could become squad leaders had gone through life and death trials. Clearly, even in such dire straits, they remained unflustered!
The clan’s purpose in establishing the War Hall was precisely this.
Raise troops for a thousand days to use them in a single moment!
Now was the time to showcase their strength.
With encouragement from the six leaders, the battle array reconsolidated, and Fire Pythons emerged one after another, charging towards the swarming insect tide.
At the same time!
Fu Molan, submerged in the insect tide.
Yet saw.
