Chapter 1006: Chapter 862: Great Victory

"Think you can escape?!"

Seeing this scene, Fang Xi raised his hand and cast a ’Prohibition Space Talisman’!

This talisman, which he had once realized from the ’Treasures of All Heavens,’ was now vastly different in effect.

After all, given Fang Xi’s recent mastery of the Way of the Void, coupled with constant study of the complete ’Treasures of All Heavens’ and assisted by his God Path Incarnation, his progress in the field he was best at was utterly unreasonable!

Even more so, this ’Prohibition Space Talisman’ had been specially nurtured within his own dantian with the essence of the ’Treasures of All Heavens,’ its power truly extraordinary!

As he cast it now, silver streams of light rapidly fluctuated in the void.

In the hands of the Tungbei Great Saint, the Phoenix Seal Script written on the feather of a phoenix was extinguished one after another.

"Impossible!"

The Tungbei Great Saint’s blood-red eyes bulged out in disbelief.

This phoenix feather was a real True Spirit feather that it had gone to great lengths to acquire!

Having been sacrificially refined with the secret methods of the void, it even had a certain chance of escape under the hands of Mahayana cultivators.

How could it be directly broken?

Unless... the other party wielded a Void Attribute Immortal Mansion Rare Treasure like Che Xuanyuan’s Void Mirror!

But if Qing Hezi possessed such a treasure, why hadn’t he used it earlier?

The Tungbei Great Saint was filled with confusion, but in the next moment, a huge skull flew towards him, opened its ghastly maw, and bit down fiercely.

Crunch!

The protective radiant light around it shattered like a soap bubble, and its diamond-hard body, tempered a thousand times, also fell back to the sixth stage, as a substantial part of its monkey head was bitten off.

Spurt!

The headless four-armed ape corpse fell to the ground, its soul vanishing without a trace.

"What a faithful servant, to have devoured the Six Solar Brake Leader’s head and soul together..."

Fang Xi glanced at the Yellow Springs Ghost, knowing that the Essence Soul of an Integration Peak was of great benefit to a Ghost Cultivator.

"Cough up the monkey’s head and Essence Soul later."

He snorted coldly, causing a trace of bitterness to appear on the Yellow Springs Ghost’s face, but it dared not disobey, merely nodding repeatedly in affirmation.

Only then did Fang Xi make a hand gesture, casting a Magic Spell into the massive mountain-like corpse of the Tungbei Great Saint, causing it to continuously shrink before storing it in his Storage Bag.

He continued chanting, and strands of Demon Qi, like giant pythons, entwined around the Fire Command Token, which also fell into his hands.

The three-eyed birds that filled the sky had been swept into the riverbed to be crushed when the Nine Nether Underworld River arrived, and without their master’s command, they one by one returned to the Thousand Bird Picture, turning into individual birds that Fang Xi swept up.

"Counting the collection of the Tungbei Great Saint, this time I’ve truly profited..."

Fang Xi remarked with emotion, his Divine Consciousness only now having the opportunity to observe the battlefield.

The moment the ’Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Array’ was upgraded to an Immortal Array, many seventh-stage members of the Monster Clan knew something was wrong.

However, most were entangled with Integration cultivators and simply couldn’t escape right away.

Many were struck down in cultivation level, their Magic Power greatly damaged, and then easily killed by their opponents.

"Haha!"

Fang Xi saw the supreme elder of the Flaming Jade Sect laugh heartily as the Nine Dragons Cauldron smashed the head of Kunpeng.

And the mightier Monster Clan Saints had already made their escape.

Whether it was Xuan Lin, who was entangled with Wu Xingzi, or the Nine-Tailed Great Saint who fought fiercely with Mo Yunzi, the moment they saw the turn of events, they immediately used their life-saving trump cards to swiftly leave the battlefield.

As for Sage Wuya? He had already vanished with Jin Gangzi, fighting somewhere outside the range of the Immortal Array.

Only the Sky-Flipping Great Saint of the Flood Dragon clan had penetrated too deeply into Heaven Origin City and was besieged by many Integration cultivators; its life-saving trump card didn’t seem to relate to escape techniques, and, feeling extremely aggrieved, it fell on the spot.

A jade-like Flood Dragon let out a mournful cry before its dragon head slammed against the city wall, leaving a huge dent.

At this point, how could the many Human Cultivators pass up the opportunity to kick the Monster Clan while they were down?

They surged forward bravely, even managing to break through the Monster Clan’s army, sending countless demons into a panicked retreat...

Boom!

Just then, a loud crash came from the core of Heaven Origin City.

The ’Fake Immortal Vein’ in White Jade Mountain lost all its luster, crumbling like a castle of sand on a dune, thunderously collapsing.

Subsequently, the Array Eyes where the Immortal Array was set up began to rumble. Some showed cracks, while others exploded outright...

An endless flood of black water vanished in an instant, and the remaining Monster Clan members cheered as they felt their Magic Power returning, then broke into an even more desperate flight...

"Just as I thought..."

To this, Fang Xi was not surprised but merely put away the Mysterious Dark Banner.

After all, this Immortal Array was far too damaged; despite him and Ji Feixue reinforcing the array instruments with materials collected from all over the Star Domain, they were still not as durable as the genuine originals.

More importantly, the Immortal Array consumed too much Immortal Qi!

Even the ’Fake Immortal Vein’ had reached the point of complete collapse.

’It’s a good thing we had the resources of the human race this time, with Immortal Jade and various rare array materials provided almost without limit... otherwise, if I had to provide everything myself, it would have practically bankrupted me.’

Looking at the corpse of the Sky-Flipping Great Saint, Fang Xi’s face lit up with joy: "With the merits I’ve earned, it shouldn’t be a problem to claim this Flood Dragon’s Essence Soul after the battle, and I can go to Fire Cangzi to trade for the Six-tooth Heaven Elephant... The Flood Dragon in water will have a more compatible attribute."

"Sir..."

At that moment, a transmission artifact on him lit up, conveying Ji Feixue’s voice: "The Immortal Array can’t take the strain and has stopped operating..."

"I know."

Fang Xi replied, "We’ve... won!"

"Yes... we won!" Ji Feixue sighed with emotion.

Then, cheers erupted like a tidal wave from within Heaven Origin City, quickly spreading across the entire battlefield...

...

Above the Nine Heavens.

The Divine Thoughts of seven Mahayana Monks had penetrated the profound, already witnessing everything that had transpired below.

"Haha!"

Qingxu Child laughed heartily, continuously waving the fan behind him, stirring up billows of murky winds, blocking the True Spirit Phoenix and Xuanwu, who wanted to go down and help: "Two sirs, have you forgotten our prior agreement?"

Compared to the two Monster Clan True Spirits, Di Jiang appeared much more gracious.

This was probably because the main attackers below were the Monster Clan, with the Alien Alliance only providing support.

Even the reinforcements were mostly from the Alien races; the Jiuchi Clan had only recently taken charge of the Alien Alliance and could not dispatch much secret support.

"Tsk tsk... What a marvelous Immortal Array indeed."

He gazed at the Nine Netherworld Underworld River Mysterious Sand Fairy Array below, marveling: "The depths of the human race are truly unfathomable... This Immortal Array’s function is also interesting, neither offensive nor defensive, but weakening... I wonder if it has any effect on us Mahayana Monks?"

As these words came out, Che Xuanyuan saw Old Meng and Bu reflecting thoughtfully.

He shook his head and immediately said, "How could the virtual and the reality of my human race’s Immortal Array be known by outsiders?"

"Well then..."

Di Jiang sighed, with Chaos Energy overflowing all around him, transforming into a streak of flowing light, shooting towards the back.

"I will certainly avenge today’s grudge in the future!"

The True Spirit Phoenix cried loudly and flapped its wings, a void flood wrapping it up along with Xuanwu, as both vanished from sight.

Qingxu Child did not give chase, only remarking with a sigh: "These little ones below really gave us a surprise..."

The prowess of one Immortal Array to another varied greatly.

This Immortal Array might be unable to defend or attack and it consumes a lot of Fake Immortal Vein, but its function is heaven-defying, and it can be considered a treasure that suppresses the fortune of an entire clan.

"This Array should not have much effect on us..." Che Xuanyuan spoke up: "With our escape speed, we can completely leave the range of the Array in an instant... unless we are forced into a dead end, then attacked in conjunction by same-tier Mahayana..."

"Exactly..." Master Bu nodded in agreement.

"This Array..." Old Meng’s eyes swiveled, then he shook his head: "It’s a bit of a pity..."

"There’s nothing to pity, Qing Hezi presented this Array with his heart set on the human race... Perhaps, this is the attitude of his backing Mahayana as well."

Qingxu Child smiled: "Although we didn’t join the battle personally, delivering such an Array is better than an additional Mahayana!"

"We should quickly descend and take charge of the aftermath."

...

Fang Xi collected the Stygian Heaven Ghost, transformed into a streak of blue light, and returned to the chessboard.

The intertwined black and white dragon pattern on the chessboard had long disappeared.

In its place, white banners unified the landscape.

A few scattered black pieces were also being besieged by numerous white ones, seemingly unable to hold out much longer.

"Sir, your mastery over arrays... I admire deeply."

Mo Yunzi transformed into a streak of demon light, landing on the White Jade Platform, then sighed again: "It’s a shame we didn’t capture the Nine-Tailed..."

"Haha, in this battle we slew two Monster Clan Saints, plus the earlier Lu Xing, the Monster Clan has indeed suffered a great loss in vitality..."

Wu Xingzi returned to the White Jade Platform, treating Fang Xi with a particularly warm attitude: "Sir, you truly are the foremost person in human race array techniques..."

"Far from it..."

Fang Xi humbly deflected the praise a few times, then asked: "Where is Sir Jin Gangzi?"

A streak of golden light emerged from afar, accompanied by the sound of dragons chanting and tigers roaring, landing on the White Jade Platform; it was indeed Jin Gangzi!

But at this moment, his golden body was shattered, and golden blood streamed from his shoulders.

"Amitabha..."

Jin Gangzi, although wounded, still had a good expression: "The Earth Attribute Divine Skill and cultivation technique of Sage Wuya were indeed astonishingly powerful, my Vajra Prajna Incarnation was broken, and my essence took quite a hit... Fortunately, it was scared off in the end. Qing Hezi can be said to be my life-saving benefactor..."

"If you wish to repay the favor, just exchange that essence soul of the Sky-Flipping Great Saint with me," Fang Xi said with a faint smile.

All beings fear the fruit, Bodhisattvas fear the cause.

With these words, he intended to settle the cause and effect with Jin Gangzi.

"Good!"

Jin Gangzi was indeed overjoyed upon hearing this, repeatedly thanking Fang Xi.

As a cultivator of the Brahman Sect, he was quite fearful of the concept of karma.

If he didn’t return the favor for this life-saving grace, it would be difficult to overcome the Heart Demon Tribulation for advancing to Mahayana...

Now that Qing Hezi did not seek repayment for his favor, it cast a slight gloom on Wu Xingzi’s face.

"Although we have won the great battle, we cannot relax yet..."

Mo Yunzi spoke earnestly, bringing up the issue of reclaiming lost territories.

Winning the battle for Heaven Origin City was only enough to preserve a vital breath for the human race, preventing the loss of nearly half the territories.

Now was the chance to reclaim a few realms before the Monster Clan regrouped, significantly improving the human race’s strategic situation.

This was the duty of the Five Sons of Human Race, and Wu Xingzi and Jin Gangzi couldn’t help but start to argue vehemently.

As for Fang Xi, he simply listened with a smile, content to be a bystander...
