Capítulo 2167: Chapter 2112–2113: Reclaiming the Divine Soul, How to Break the Array? (2)
The ancient city shimmered with brilliance, standing immortal and unshakeable against the ravages of time. Dormant array patterns awaited, poised to annihilate any formidable adversaries that dared to intrude by activating the array.
This is a Divine City forged from Fire Dao Divine Materials, a treasure in its own right. Even if a True Immortal inadvertently fell into it and the city gates closed, escape would be impossible.
“Junior Feng Lei’s Divine Soul has been retrieved by me, but the Dean’s Immortal Artifact, the Two Diagrams Map, was also lost within the Great Formation,” Thunder Sword True Man said with a complex expression, his voice melancholic and soft.
“How can it be so?” Master Shuihuo was also shocked, a glint of light in his eyes. He couldn’t have imagined that the Eight Trigrams Divine Array could suppress the Two Diagrams Map, leaving him in great surprise.
However, upon seeing Thunder Sword True Man’s demeanor, he comforted, “No wonder, in that instant, the Eight Trigrams Divine Array enveloped the sky, terrifyingly extraordinary, and was immediately suppressed, losing most of its might, as though it had lost the soul of the Great Formation.”
“Is that how it is? The Eight Trigrams Array map was absolutely not deduced by those few True Men; it originated from that Great Inference Ancestor Master’s hands, refined into existence, setting up the Great Array, connecting the array patterns, sealing forever. Even if presented before Fire God City, even with all Divine Dynasty experts at hand, it remains unchallenged; however, suppressed by the Two Diagrams Map, though power is not manifested, it can diminish the Great Array’s power by three or four-tenths out of thin air.” Thunder Sword True Man suddenly comprehended, revealing a trace of joy, understanding the profound intricacies within.
The Array Formation of the Great Inference Ancestor Master is renowned across the Realms of Heavenly Seas; the array maps they refined are extraordinary, connecting with boundless Catastrophic Evil Qi, and upon settling here, its power multiplies frighteningly.
The Vice Institute Master of the Taoist Academy can naturally dispel it, but cannot act personally; using this opportunity is a good chance.
Even more, it could be a reason to allow some of the Taoist Academy’s strong experts the chance to act.
“Deploying such strategies and manipulation, our Vice Institute Master it seems is not without preparation!” Admirable and deeply daunting respect for the Vice Institute Master arose within Thunder Sword True Man’s heart, their calmness in normal days perhaps just for the sake of disciples like themselves.
“Let’s go, we shall head to the Fire Cloud Cave to return the Divine Soul to Junior Brother, and after he awakens, we shall discuss the matter of breaking the Eight Trigrams Divine Array. Surely this is a tribulation for Junior Shen, within the great catastrophe challenges abound; anyone entering the calamity must face numerous trials, with calamities from the heavens; naturally, after crossing it, one obtains creation of heavens and earth, and future glory beyond compare.” Thunder Sword True Man smiled, reassured now, and his deep-seated worries dissipated, knowing once the Eight Trigrams Divine Array is broken, he can retrieve the Two Diagrams Map.
Upon learning that Thunder Sword True Man had reclaimed Wind and Thunder Master’s Divine Soul, the Fire Emperor also joined forces with powerful allies to reopen the Teleportation Gate, transporting Wind and Thunder Master’s body back.
Though during this time the Fire Cloud Cave had not found a solution, it cannot be denied that they protected Wind and Thunder Master’s Divine Soul well; even as the body temporarily left was untouched and unharmed.
“True Man, you have worked hard; when your deeds are accomplished, today’s actions will be memorable, establishing a Taoist Temple and spreading True Man’s fame.” Fire Emperor, his demeanor firm and steady, wore the Emperor’s Crown, gold light cascading, a wisp of Zi Qi swirling above, the Emperor’s Qi, Supreme.
Adding to that, with the Fire Emperor’s supreme Strong overlord cultivation, he could also let those nearby feel that oppressive majesty belonging to an Emperor.
“In which case, I shall first thank you, Emperor. Our descend is for a shared goal, and in the future, the Emperor shall surely achieve supreme heights. I shall patiently await the day of your success.” Thunder Sword True Man, cautious, not daring to act lightly.
As such a strong Sword Path cultivator, he is not one to be oblivious or unsophisticated.
What’s more, others say cultivators of the Sword Path are sword-mad, but truly compared to those cultivating the Emperor’s Path, they are the genuine mad ones.
With a Taoist Academy system backing him, alongside support from the Shenxiao Sect, Thunder Sword True Man is more cognizant than ordinary cultivators of the madness ingrained in those pursuing the Emperor’s Path.
If the sword path cultivators are extreme, with some able to restrain their nature, then those on the Emperor’s Path distinguish only between mad and more mad.
Moreover, as a Divine Dynasty Lord and a top-tier Supreme Strong Overlord, Thunder Sword True Man remains appropriately modest.
“I request True Man to awaken Taoist Friend Wind and Thunder. You’ve journeyed for affairs of state. This Emperor feels deep remorse for not alleviating your concerns.” Fire Emperor candidly expressed concern.
Regardless, for a long time, both exchanged glances, and even though Wind and Thunder Master had his intentions and plans, his assistance was undeniable.
Furthermore, truth be told, reaching this status, despite seemingly being surrounded by many, in fact, one walks alone; rather, Wind and Thunder Taoist’s role as Guest Elder kept more connection between us.
With the Jade Emperor confrontation now ongoing, it was a difficult road for the human race Five Emperors, similarly for someone like Divine Dynasty Lord, a path of no return; succeed or perish, an unavoidable situation, with one person’s glory risen on the bones of many.
For the Five Emperors’ descendants, perhaps failure merely depletes the human race Five Emperors’ Qi Luck, but for the Fire Emperor, failure means demise, everything turning to shadows instantly, hence his diligence, maintaining high vigilance, restless day and night, tirelessly devoted to governance.
“The Emperor, please wait a moment.” Thunder Sword True Man with seriousness looked at the Wind and Thunder Master lying atop the cloud bed.
Handing the gourd containing the Divine Soul to Master Shuihuo, the opposing measures were more adept.
Master Shuihuo, unpretentious, accepted the gourd, letting it float in the air, then weaving hands, laying a series of array patterns, masking surrounding aura, with repeated taps, strands of light flashing, entering the Wind and Thunder Master’s body.
“Brother, if not awake now, then when!” Master Shuihuo, eyes gleaming, his mouth vocalizing the Summoning God Celestial Sound, a Divine Ability, as the sound transformed into light, entering Wind and Thunder Master’s body.
Shortly, Wind and Thunder opened his eyes, somewhat dazed, softly coughing, murmuring, “It was but a grand dream!”
Seeing Wind and Thunder Master without apparent anomaly, everyone’s hearts eased. They chatted briefly before dispersing; during this time, their actions withheld yet remained on edge.
“In three days, we shall jointly discuss the method to break the array.” With seriousness, Fire Emperor addressed everyone before departing.
It was evident that despite recovery, the experience undoubtedly impacted him greatly; never since beginning cultivation had he suffered such a setback.
Three days passed in a flash; at the City Lord’s Mansion, the generals gathered, Fire Emperor taking the seat of honor, with Wind and Thunder Master and Thunder Sword True Man flanking on either side.
“The Eight Trigrams Divine Array is exceedingly tricky. I wonder what strategies the Taoist Priests and esteemed colleagues might have,” Fire Emperor first inquired.
“The Array Formation is indeed one of Heaven and Earth’s Great Tao. This Great Inference Ancestor Master is famed for arrays across the Realms of Heavenly Seas, and the Eight Trigrams Divine Array, his creation, is truly remarkable.” Hearing this, attendees wore serious expressions, acknowledging even though Thunder Sword True Man had reclaimed the Wind and Thunder Master’s Divine Soul, the challenge was evident to all.
Furthermore, the magical treasure belonging to the Taoist Academy’s Vice Institute Master still remained within, further making powerful figures aware that the Eight Trigrams Divine Array was not easily cracked.
Seeing the somewhat low spirits of those present, Thunder Sword True Man shifted his demeanor, stating, “Yet, the situation is not so grim; even if we are unversed in the art of Array Formation, it is unnecessary to be specialists. Although we are not experts in the Array Formation, we do not need to be, and we still have a chance.”
“Please, True Man, awaken our Taoist Friend Feng Lei. Despite the trials for the sake of the nation, on the day of success, it will surely be remembered to establish the Taoist Temple, propagating our True Man’s repute,” Fire Emperor earnestly acknowledged with an expression of solemn admiration, the Emperor Crown gleaming.
It was the combination of Fire Emperor’s top Supreme Strong Overlord cultivation and the Emperor’s pressure that surrounded them and made the nearby experts feel that overwhelming force, characteristic of an Emperor’s intimidation.
“Then I shall thank the Emperor in advance. We all go down the mountain with a singular goal, and one day, the Emperor too shall reach the pinnacle of success. I, an old Taoist, look forward to the moment of success,” responded Thunder Sword True Man carefully, respectful as ever.
As a strong practitioner of the Sword Path, he too is not without understanding of social customs and matters of the heart.
Besides, while many label practitioners of the Sword Path as sword-crazy, when compared to those who tread the Emperor’s Path, the latter are the truly mad ones.
Given the opponent is also a Divine Dynasty Lord, a top-tier Supreme Strong Overlord, Thunder Sword True Man refrained from exhibiting any presumption.
“I beseech True Man to awaken Taoist Friend Feng Lei. For the sake of the nation, this matter must be remembered in the years to come, and a Taoist Temple shall be established in honor of True Man’s magnanimity,” Fire Emperor spoke solemnly, donning the Emperor Crown, with streams of golden light swirling around him, emanating supreme might of an Emperor.
