Chapter 815: Chapter 455 Four Symbols Spiritual Array

The world was ablaze.

The sun lay on the western horizon.

The sun in the west should gradually set and disappear, awaiting tomorrow to rise from the east.

Yet this sun was gradually rising in the west.

The two Divine Mountains could no longer suppress it.

Shangguan Youqi carried the Flame Dragon Spear, stepping out towards the direction of the sun.

Meanwhile, Lin Yan extended his hand, and the Little White Ape plunged into his palm.

Seeing this, the old man revealed a look of surprise: "What technique is this?"

"The Shangri Sacred Land has always excelled in Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun, capable of gathering the might of ten thousand armies within, incorporating the power of a vast military formation for one’s own... How could such a minor skill of mine astonish you?"

Lin Yan, holding the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, said: "Shangri Sacred Land is reputed to be one of the strongest sacred lands within the Holy Alliance, governing the most expansive territory, and throughout the ages, four of Shangri’s Saint Masters have served as Master of the Holy Alliance!"

He pointed the sword at the old man opposite him, speaking slowly: "In this era where the True Sun Monarch has emerged, can you, as the contemporary Saint Master, vastly surpass the previous ones..."

To succeed as Master of the Holy Alliance, ruling over a hundred sacred lands and maintaining the momentum while stabilizing all parties, one’s combat prowess must be exceedingly strong.

Recently, being amidst the Holy Alliance, Lin Yan gained some basic understanding of the past Alliance Hierarchs.

Aside from some special eras when the Human Clan’s situation was dire, several Hierarchs temporarily took the position with the power to break through the Seven Heavens, later relying on various Old God’s Magical Objects to enhance their strength and bear the banner of the Human Clan.

In other times, every Alliance Hierarch possessed the power to break through the Eighth Heaven with their own strength... with most even able to break through the Nine Heavens!

The Shangri Sacred Land had four generations of Saint Masters who took the role of Alliance Hierarch.

This signified that the Saint Masters of Shangri Sacred Land, with their highest attainments, possessed the power to break through the Nine Heavens.

"Ashamed, my attainments are far inferior to the past Saint Masters."

This old man raised his hands, thousands of remnants behind him, gathering Qi Mechanism around: "Throughout the disasters faced by the Human Clan and the overly ancient eras, the deeds of past Saint Masters are untraceable. However, since the creation of the Holy Alliance, in our Shangri Sacred Land, there have been thirteen Saint Masters who have elevated their combat power to the ’Upper Three Heavens’..."

"Among them, six have broken through the Nine Heavens!"

"Among these six, four served as Master of the Holy Alliance, while the remaining two, born in unfavorable times, contended unsuccessfully with Human Martial Saints who broke through the Nine Heavens in their era, succumbed to despondency and perished..."

"Not long ago, in a city within our sacred land’s domain, an unprecedented Divine Spirit appeared."

"It chose not to shelter the Human Clan, reclusive for years, resurfaced this time only to vanish again into the earth, leaving behind a Secret Technique."

"Before the Holy Alliance was founded, after the fall of the Second Generation Human Emperor, a Great Fate Teller emerged, a piece of Immortal Gold tainted with Divine Blood, gained sentience, seized the orthodoxy of Diancang Sacred Land, self-proclaimed as Dao Ancestor of the era."

"Later, it was ambushed and trapped by an ancient Formation called the Four Symbols Spiritual Array, ultimately stripped of its Great Luck, and lost its consciousness."

After a pause, the master of the Shangri Sacred Land slowly stated: "The Secret Technique left by this Divine Spirit is precisely the Four Symbols Spiritual Array."

"..."

Lin Yan glanced around and said: "So now, the Four Symbols Spiritual Array is set within the Shangri Sacred Land?"

"Indeed!"

The Master of Shangri Sacred Land stroked his beard with a smile and said: "The True Sun Monarch assisted me in setting up this array, waiting for the Saint Master for many days now."

"Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun was responsible for suppressing the sun; did you release it under such temptation?"

Lin Yan looked around and said: "I initially thought that the foundation of Shangri Sacred Land lay in this sun, that you turned into Tribulation Ash due to the revival of the True Sun Monarch... No, within the Holy Alliance, it’s referred to as a Divine Servant!"

The Shangri Sacred Land is not the dojo of the True Sun Monarch.

It was originally the dojo of that Immortal who survived in the mortal world.

The Inner Realm Divine Domain of Shangri Sacred Land is not the Sun!

It is Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun!

The Sun is merely a part of it!

The two Divine Mountains are the true foundation!

When the one responsible for suppressing the sun chose to collaborate with the True Sun Monarch, it doomed him to forsake this sacred land!

This was not due to the influence of the Old God’s thoughts, nor a result of the remaining thoughts of the dojo’s erosion.

It was purely a betrayal of the Human Clan, siding with the True Sun Monarch!

"My time is up."

The Shangri Sacred Land’s Saint Master sighed, saying: "I originally had a hundred more years of life span, but the True Sun Monarch has grown stronger and cannot be suppressed anymore."

"It has lain dormant for ten thousand years; none of the past Saint Masters nor the Holy Alliance’s sovereigns saw through its reality."

"Over the years, to prevent the sun from extinguishing and causing the sacred land’s total ruin, we have exhausted numerous methods."

"A great amount of fire-assisting materials, vast quantities of Cloud Wing Bird essence blood, constantly poured in daily, to maintain the Divine Fire burning."

"To avoid the suppression of the solar system by the two Divine Mountain Great Array formations, causing the sun to be subdual, long before the Holy Alliance was established, the previous Saint Masters of Shangri Sacred Land repeatedly engraved runes on these two Divine Mountains to weaken the original Great Array’s power."

"The True Sun Monarch has laid dormant until now, rising once, and is unstoppable."

"This old man cannot withstand the True Sun Monarch, and the Holy Alliance has no means to stop it, not even the Alliance Hierarch can do anything."

"Facing such a situation, I either fall here and now and Shangri Sacred Land soon after is destroyed."

"Or replace you, this Great Fate Teller, in an alternative way to continue the legacy of Shangri Sacred Land’s orthodoxy."

The old man looked at Lin Yan, speaking solemnly: "This is a dead end, I have no choice!"
