The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 1052 - 1053: Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array
"Master Jiang Hu, everything is ready."
"Our Formation has also been set up."
At this moment, a large number of disciples had already surrounded the Divine Temple, and all preparations were completed. Disciples continually came over to report the progress of setting up the Formation to Jiang Hu.
Only after everyone reported back did Jiang Hu nod in satisfaction.
"Dear disciples, you are the most elite disciples and Elders of the Muu Wang Heavenly Mansion and Huangji Hall. This time, we must succeed in the plan to kill the Wraith Demon Emperor. Once we kill him, everyone will get a share of the Water of Death Spring and Life Spring. The treasure beneath the springs will also be partly yours. In the future, you will be the closest friends of the God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan, the most loyal friends."
Jiang Hu’s words ignited a fervor among all the disciples.
Obtaining the treasures represented a boost in strength, and becoming friends with a super first-rate clan like the God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan signified a rise in status.
As long as they could slay the Wraith Demon Emperor, both power and status would be theirs, akin to ascending to the heavens overnight.
Their eyes showed impatience, eager to immediately activate the Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array, slay the Wraith Demon Emperor, seize the springs, and claim all the treasures.
It’s known that many experts have come to the Mountain of Wraith, some to retrieve water, some to negotiate, and some to slay the Wraith Demon Emperor.
But without exception, all failed. The treasures of those martial artists were all seized by the Wraith Demon Emperor. Perhaps those items left on the ground, unpicked, were simply things he deemed unworthy.
As the disciples were readying the Seal Formation, the Wraith Demon Emperor apparently sensed it, and an angry voice echoed from within the Divine Temple: "You humans, why have you come to my Mountain of Wraith? What is your purpose?"
"Wraith Demon Emperor, I am Jiang Hu, the Clan Leader of the God-Devouring Blood Tiger Clan. The experts from our four biggest clans have visited you for negotiations several times, yet you showed us no respect. Today is a day of yin deficiency, and we shall take your life while your power wanes!"
Jiang Hu shouted aloud: "All disciples, form the array!"
Boom!
As Jiang Hu’s words fell, the disciples could not wait any longer. They wanted to witness firsthand the might of an array set by over a thousand disciples of the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm, and later boast about it to others.
Swish, swish, swish!
Over a thousand beams of light streaked like shooting stars, weaving in the air to form an energy net. Upon a closer look, you’d find that this energy net was a Five-Finger Chess Array. Each disciple represented a chess piece, densely packed, with immense energy radiating a grandeur of slaughter.
Ye Mo gazed at the grand Formation and was thoroughly shocked; this was a true Formation. Compared to this, the Formations he encountered before were trivial, insignificant by comparison.
He could sense that being trapped within this Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array felt like being caught in a chess game.
The saying "the onlooker sees more clearly than the player" matched what the Wraith Demon Emperor said – strong inside but weak outside. Being inside the array meant you were the player; no matter how strong you were, you were caught in the game. Onlookers outside the array could clearly see the game’s form.
However, even from an onlooker’s perspective, Ye Mo still felt the power of this Chess Array. Without the Eye of the Divine Beast, breaking the array was no simple task.
As the thousand disciples finished arranging the array, the surrounding air turned heavy.
A powerful, evil, ancient aura permeated from the Divine Temple.
This aura exploded like a volcano from the temple, and everyone present felt a considerable pressure.
Even though Ye Mo was hiding at a distance, he still felt the pressure, almost suffocating.
"Is this the power of the Wraith Demon Emperor? If he regains his peak strength, even the Evil Demon Ancient Cultivator wouldn’t be his match."
Ye Mo looked at the scene in the distance, not daring to breathe loudly.
"He’s coming out!"
Jiang Hu’s face also showed a serious expression.
Two Divine Venerate Strong Practitioners and a pinnacle practitioner of the Wheel of Reincarnation Nine Transformations all brandished their weapons, ready to battle at any moment.
All the disciples’ Xuan Aura surged, and the Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array thundered in the air. The Divine Temple, which had stood on the Mountain of Wraith for centuries, finally collapsed under the immense pressure.
Rumble!
Then, a figure shot out from the ruins of the Divine Temple, voice booming like thunder. He was tall and clad in a purple robe, bound by chains forged from the two kinds of spring waters at his feet and hands.
In his hand, he wielded a gigantic Demon-Slaying Halberd, piercing the skies. Packed with runes like curses from hell, just a glance at this weapon filled one with oppression, as if wraiths would cling to one’s body and tear one’s spirit apart.
The dissipated Wraith Energy surged from his body again, capable of shredding even ancient beasts to pieces.
"Don’t panic everyone, hold the array’s eyes, and we can kill him!"
Noticing the disciples’ fear, Jiang Hu roared continuously.
"Do you really think that setting up this array can kill me?"
The Wraith Demon Emperor looked at the dense array of disciples above and bellowed, the surrounding airflow nearly capable of shattering human flesh.
Even during a day of yin deficiency, the Wraith Demon Emperor’s strength remained astonishingly strong.
"Haha, Wraith Demon Emperor, today is your day to die, activate the Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array!"
Jiang Hu commanded loudly. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
In an instant, thousands of disciples in the sky gathered their spirits, gripping their longswords, and continuously swung them. All their Xuan Aura connected, forming a true chessboard.
The Wraith Demon Emperor became but a piece on this chessboard.
"The Great Universal Demonic Extermination Array? Today I shall break your array!"
The Wraith Demon Emperor growled deeply, filled with towering anger, and continuously swung his Demon-Slaying Halberd, relentlessly attacking the surrounding disciples.
"Wraith Roar!"
The Demon-Slaying Halberd swung fiercely, condensing the surrounding Wraith Energy into a tangible form, creating a massive black sphere. Like thunder from a clear sky, it blasted forward, rushing towards the disciples ahead.
"Reform the array!"
Jiang Hu shouted once more, as the disciples in the chessboard shifted their formation, changing the positions of the black vortexes, forming an absolute killing stance against the Wraith Demon Emperor once more.
No matter how the Wraith Demon Emperor attacked, the chessboard always maintained a deadlock. Even with his formidable strength, he stood at bay.
