Chapter 1069: Venerable Emperor, Secrets, Uprising (Part 4)

Chief Bai laughed and said:

“Brother Celestial Wolf, when we attack the Shangguan Family, if there is any treasure you fancy, feel free to pick one first. I won’t take much, just a single Holy Fruit from your tribe. How about it?”

More than two years ago.

Chief Bai mentioned this once, but was refused by Chief of the Celestial Wolf.

Unexpectedly, the other party still remembers it.

If Chief of the Celestial Wolf refuses at this moment, it obviously wouldn’t be suitable for their cooperation, so he could only say:

“If Brother White Tiger insists, then I will reluctantly part with it, but the Holy Fruit will take another three years to ripen. You will have to wait a bit longer.”

“Haha, Brother Celestial Wolf truly is a straightforward person. Then it’s settled, three years is but a fleeting moment for us, it’s no problem at all.”

During their conversation.

The atmosphere between the two sides eased a lot.

Chief of the Celestial Wolf turned to look at the Array Masters inside the cave mansion, and solemnly asked: “Yiying, Hushan, do you have confidence in finding the weak point of the Celestial Extinction Array?”

Yiying and Hushan, from the Celestial Wolf and White Tiger tribes respectively, are both Tier Three Top-Grade Array Masters, just a step away from becoming Tier Four Array Masters.

The two exchanged a glance.

Hushan stepped forward and respectfully said:

“Reporting to Chief of the Celestial Wolf, the Celestial Extinction Array is a top-tier Mountain Protection Array handed down from ancient times. Its core principle lies in the gathering and transformation of the Power of Heaven and Earth, its power is limitless. If it were a complete Array, even a Tier Four Array Master would have difficulty breaking it. However, the Shangguan Family’s array appears to be an incomplete one. After years of research with Yiying, we have identified its flaw. Using the Forbidden-Breaking Pearl combined with the support of your artifact, it can be broken in less than a quarter hour.”

“Excellent!”

The Chief of the Celestial Wolf nodded slightly at these words, then a hint of severity flashed in his eyes:

“Everyone, heed the command, set off immediately, target Celestial Extremity Peak!”

With the order from the Chief of the Celestial Wolf, the atmosphere inside the cave mansion instantly became tense. Eight Purple Mansion cultivators quickly rose, transforming into eight streaks of light, heading straight for Shangguan Family’s Celestial Extremity Peak at great speed, covering the distance of a hundred miles in almost an instant.

On Celestial Extremity Peak, the light of the Celestial Extinction Array enveloped the entire peak, with array patterns flowing and runes flickering, like an insurmountable barrier. However, at that moment, eight powerful auras suddenly appeared over Celestial Extremity Peak, followed by the simultaneous action of eight Purple Mansion cultivators, their mana gathering into a massive beam of light, striking directly at the array hub of the Celestial Extinction Array.

“Boom!”

With a loud explosion, the array hub of the Celestial Extinction Array trembled slightly under the combined assault of the eight Purple Mansion cultivators but did not collapse. Instead, the light of the array glowed brighter, as if enraged.

Yiying and Hushan, the two Array Masters, were well-prepared for this scenario after numerous deductions, so they did not panic.

Both simultaneously patted their storage bags, and with a flash of dawn light, two Forbidden-Breaking Pearls, one black and one white, whistled out. With a series of techniques cast into them, they buzzed into life, each releasing an opposite Spirit Light. These two lights converged in the air.

It was like the collision of ice and fire.

The resulting power was terrifying, seeming capable of tearing space itself apart. The two of them shouted in unison:

“In the name of the Celestial Emperor, Qiankun controls the pearls, break!”

Boom!

The two highly unstable Forbidden-Breaking Pearls fused together, turning into a stream of light that swiftly flew toward the location of the northern array hub of Celestial Extremity Peak.

Both simultaneously turned to Chief of the Celestial Wolf and said:

“Chief, now!”

“Alright!”

Chief of the Celestial Wolf, seeing this, immediately summoned his Lifebound Treasure—the Celestial Wolf Howling at the Moon Saber. The blade shone with radiant silver light, merging with the Forbidden-Breaking Pearls. The other five Purple Mansion cultivators also acted in unison, and an overwhelming force, capable of tearing heaven and earth apart, exploded at that moment.

“Boom!”

With a loud explosion, the array hub of the Celestial Extinction Array collapsed instantly under the joint assault of the eight Purple Mansion cultivators. The light of the array quickly dimmed, and the whole Celestial Extremity Peak began to tremble, as if it would collapse at any moment.

A hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of Chief of the Celestial Wolf, who then ordered: “The array has been broken, attack immediately, leave no one alive, finish quickly!”

“Yes!”

The eyes of the eight Purple Mansion cultivators flashed with excitement and eagerness, having borne the grudge of two Purple Mansion members slain by the Fu Family. Now they could finally reclaim some interest, eager to become the one to cut off Shangguan Li’s head:

“Kill!”

“Kill!!”

“Kill!!!”

Their shouts of killing echoed through the clouds.

However.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that only the four from the White Tiger Tribe truly charged forward, while the four from the Celestial Wolf Tribe seemed to delay, causing the Brother Sangyin to become anxious:

“Chief, the array has been broken, even if the Shangguan Family had vast abilities, they can only surrender now. What are we waiting for?”

Brother Sangyin was full of confidence.

After all, their Chief was already at the Purple Mansion Peak, and armed with an artifact, there was nothing to fear unless they encountered a Golden Core.

If they delayed any longer.

The treasures of the Shangguan Family might be seized by the people from the White Tiger Tribe.

Chief of the Celestial Wolf swept his Divine Sense, discovering the faces of the Shangguan Clan guard array members below were panicked and chaotic, not appearing to be faking it, he then coldly said:

“Go!”

As he spoke.

His speed suddenly increased.

Even surpassing the four from the White Tiger Tribe, charging ahead of them.

The moment the eight landed on Celestial Extremity Peak, before they could begin the slaughter, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. The previously collapsed Celestial Extinction Array’s light reignited, array patterns flowed, runes flickered, and the entire Celestial Extremity Peak seemed to be enveloped by an invisible barrier.

Chief Bai’s face changed.

Because this invisible barrier could even block his Purple Mansion Peak Divine Sense:

“Hushan, what on earth is happening?”

At this moment, Array Masters Hushan and Yiying were both drenched in cold sweat, they both quickly took out their Array Plates, casting a technique quickly, after a brief deduction, a flash of astonishment appeared in their eyes:

“We… we’ve been tricked!”

“This is not an ordinary Celestial Extinction Array; it’s an improved version! What we broke earlier was just the outer resemblance; the real core array is still operational!”

The improved version of the Celestial Extinction Array is more complex and powerful than the ordinary one. The core of the Array is hidden outside the array hub, only activating after the outer resemblance is broken. At this moment, the eight Purple Mansion cultivators were completely trapped in the array, the surrounding scenery began to twist, as if entering an independent space.

The faces of both Chief of the Celestial Wolf and Chief Bai turned grim.

They never imagined that the Shangguan Family could have such methods, capable of setting up an improved version of the Celestial Extinction Array, even deceiving two Tier Three Top-Grade Array Masters.

Chief of the Celestial Wolf calmed down first:

“Yiying, Hushan, focus on finding a way to break the array, the rest join me in protective formation.”

“Understood!”

The previously somewhat panicked crowd, under the calm guidance of Chief of the Celestial Wolf, suddenly felt they had found their backbone. With their Chief possessing an artifact, even if trapped, they were confident they could jointly break out!

At the same time.

Rumble!

In the sky, dark clouds gathered, thunder rolled, and bolts of Celestial Thunder descended, directly striking the eight Purple Mansion cultivators. The power of these celestial thunders was extremely terrifying, even the Purple Mansion cultivators dared not face them head-on.
