Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 961 - 831: You’re Still Alive?

The Five Element Array meticulously arranged by the demon cultivators was disrupted in the Fourth Layer in a short span, its speed and methods making the Celestial Ghost General exclaim in admiration.

Netherworld Fengdu was truly left desolate this time, only the Celestial Shield proved to be of some use.

Nevertheless, even without the Celestial Shield, Mr. Jiang surely has a corresponding Divine Artifact; this is merely the last layer of shameful cover for freeloaders.

The Celestial Ghost General didn't anticipate such rapid progress; similarly, those demon cultivators safeguarded under layer upon layer of arrays didn't expect it, especially Luo Nanjia, who wasn't worried at all—there wasn't any commotion from up above. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Initially, the earth-shaking tremors were unsettling, fortunately, the Eternity Mirror offered a view.

Sadly, Gu Yi still couldn't operate the Divine Artifact proficiently; upon discovering they were exposed and attacked, he was so frightened that he couldn't even adjust his perspective, the vision constantly depicting ghostly fire meteors bombing his face.

It was utter chaos, not to mention that the appearance of the attackers couldn't be found.

Luckily, the advanced array was functioning well, incessant bombing couldn't even scratch the surface, with tall and robust stone giants emerging one after another, seemingly needing three days and nights of continuous bombardment to thoroughly break the defense.

By then, the teleportation array would have lifted its restrictions, allowing for a swift escape!

Luo Nanjia was able to remain calm, his greatest reliance was a subordinate responsible for overseeing the teleportation array reporting back, estimating from the array's fluctuations, it would return to normal within at most an hour or so.

In such a short time, those folks above wish to breach in?

It's simply a daydream!

The earth-shaking bombardment didn't last long before calming down; he figured the other side surely realized its futility, pausing to devise another plan.

Ha, merely the first array can't be cracked, what is there to fear?

Now, just waiting for everything that was cut off to return to normal, subsequently teleporting back to the Demon Realm first, maybe adding some fuel to the fire... oh no, perhaps sending a message to the higher-ups would be better?

"Old Gu, could you calm down and sit for a while?" Luo Nanjia was pondering how to shift blame when he saw the hunched figure pacing to and fro, feeling quite agitated.

If only he had someone trustworthy to rely on, he wouldn't want to promote such a timid coward.

The disdained Gu Yi said with a sorrowful face, "I don't know why, I feel so uneasy, as if something is not quite…"

Before he finished, a subordinate hurried over to report: "Commander Luo, we searched everywhere, but couldn't find any trace of Senior Jiu Mu and Senior Jiu Qing.

All the items in their rooms are present, and there is no usage record of the teleportation array. The guards watching over Senior Jiu Mu reported that before the teleportation array was sealed, they were sent by Senior Jiu Mu to fetch snacks and personally delivered them into the room.

During the brief chaos earlier, the two guards didn't leave, and confirmed no one exited or entered through the door."

"I understand. You can leave, and meanwhile, inform everyone to remain calm, as there hasn't been any commotion above, indicating the defensive array cannot be breached. We just need to wait for the teleportation array to be operational and retreat collectively.

Oh, and if anyone has urgent belongings to pack, ensure they do so promptly to avoid delaying when it's time to withdraw." Luo Nanjia waved his hand, and the subordinate complied before turning to leave.

Gu Yi muttered under his breath, "Who doesn't know Jiu Mu is most proficient in space technique? Having such a guard would be ineffective anyway; no idea what those above are thinking—if there's punishment, call them back to the Demon Realm for proper penalty…"

Confronted by his complaints, a sly smile emerged on Luo Nanjia's youthful face, "See, old Gu? This is evidence of significant trouble; those two colluded together to tear space and escape, escaped they did!"

Surprised, the other blurted out, "They ran, and that's a good thing?"

"Just when worried about lacking a good excuse, they deliver it right to the door." Triumphantly clapping his hands, Luo Nanjia raised his brows and hummed, "Clearly possessing the ability to tear space and break this seal, plus easily transporting everyone back to the Demon Realm, why did they run alone?"

He wasn't genuinely asking, immediately answering himself, "Of course they feel guilty! The external bunch was colluding with Jiu Mu and Jiu Qing, two Demon Race traitors, attempting to sabotage the Demon King's invasion scheme. This is assuredly a capital crime. Once the seal lifts, I will report this to the higher-ups; no one can save them this time!"

Upon hearing the two proficient in space techniques had fled, Gu Yi's heart beat even more irregularly; he immediately interrupted, "That means, isn't our last safeguard gone?"

"You relied on them for a safeguard?" Luo Nanjia stared at him with a look of disbelief, impatiently saying, "If you're uneasy, just use the Eternity Mirror to check what's going on above, no problem, right?

It's just spending a few more Immortal Jades; plenty of opportunities to make money later, don't be so stingy."

Getting rebuffed, Gu Yi didn't dare reveal his limited ability, unable to repeatedly activate the Eternity Mirror in such a short span, silently returned to his chamber, silently praying not for any additional complications.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan and his group were merely a layer away from the entrance to the independent small space, continuously faced with complications forming within the array.

"No wonder the demon cultivators chose to lurk here," Yuan Man sensed the ancient, intense wood attribute array, and immediately smiled, "This array is clearly remnant ruins, likely transformed from an abandoned Secret Realm.

The most valuable aspect is the concealment array within, capable of locking the aura of layer upon layer of advanced arrays, ensuring none leaks out. Constructing a space entrance here indeed saves effort and labor significantly.
