Chapter 867 - 867 853 Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array

Chapter 867: Chapter 853: Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array Chapter 867: Chapter 853: Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array The immense energy was absorbed like a torrent, and the creature below began to grow rapidly. Within moments, it had become a massive beast of over a dozen meters tall, seemingly intent on absorbing all the energy in sight.

It roared, and the nearby people hurriedly scurried to either side, apparently frightened.

Guo Mingyu’s companion, Song Shuangfeng, said, “It’s a Sea Demon.”

Guo Mingyu fell silent, staring at the colossal creature—that was the monster they had to face. Whether or not they could withstand the Dragon Slaying Clan depended on their ability to hold off the Sea Demon.

The towering Sea Demon was much taller than the city wall; it could step over the wall and into the city with a single stride.

The city’s Defense System immediately sensed danger and released energy to strike at the Sea Demon.

After absorbing for a while, the Sea Demon took shape. Lightning struck at the Sea Demon, but it was protected by an energy shield; ordinary lightning posed no threat to it.

Roaring like an unstoppable warrior and spewing fire serpents, it kept people at bay. Behind it, Old Du led a dozen or so spellcasters, controlling the Sea Demon. Without Old Du and his group, the Sea Demon would have surely refused to obey and started a massacre like it did on Dragon Slayer Island.

As it pushed forward, the lightning proved indeed no threat to it—forcing one to wonder how the Sea Demon had breached Immortal City.

Song Shuangfeng said, “I’ll have them activate the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array.”

Guo Mingyu nodded.

Song Shuangfeng left.

Before long, the city’s Yin-Yang Tower shone like the sun, emitting a blinding light. It seemed to awaken suddenly and released a Light Wave, which spread in all directions like a command. Subsequently, the other towers—Demon Palace City’s Defense Towers, triggered by the Yin-Yang Tower—all connected, instantaneously forming a unified structure.

It was as if the city’s defensive lifeline had been activated.

All of them woke up one by one.

The arrogant Sea Demon, having already destroyed more than a dozen buildings, could turn the city gate into nothing more than a plowed field with its trampling. How could they let this creature rampage unchecked?

All the Defense Towers came together, forming a gigantic Taiji symbol overhead.

Immediately afterward, an energy beam, sharp as a sword, shot straight at the approaching Sea Demon. The energy was now tens of times more potent than before thanks to the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array, which had harnessed the power of all Defense Towers.

Months of effort.

Lightning rained down on the Sea Demon with explosive thunder, hitting it and halting its advance with three powerful energy strikes.

The majority of the Defense System’s energy was now focused on the gargantuan creature.

The Sea Demon roared and breathed out flames, attempting to destroy the Yin-Yang Tower, which immediately countered with an energy wave, blocking the flames.

The integrated system began emitting even stronger lightning and energy at the Sea Demon.

Although the Sea Demon was protected by an energy shield and normal energy had little effect, the energy released from the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array was extraordinary.

It was capable of piercing through its protective layer, posing a direct threat to the Sea Demon.

Enraged like never before, the Sea Demon unleashed greater energy, ready to go on a rampage. But the Defense System, now concentrated on dealing with the Sea Demon, would not permit any disorder.

The system metamorphosed into a giant.

The Sea Demon might absorb energy, but the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array also drew in the energy of heaven and earth.

The Sea Demon, somewhat incredulous, gathered an even more formidable wave of energy, intending to devour the Yin-Yang Tower.

The energy, like an incoming tide, swelled and, with a sudden deluge akin to a giant wave, barrelled towards the Yin-Yang Tower with the force of an army.

The energy, like a demon, steadily advanced closer.

The Yin-Yang Tower too felt the threat.

And it was getting closer and closer.

Guo Mingyu had been watching from above. Of course, he had to see whether the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array could truly withstand the Sea Demon; if not, he would need to come up with another plan.

He saw the energy surge growing stronger, and the hitherto unrivaled Sea Demon howling.

The Yin-Yang Tower was on the brink of being devoured; the Sea Demon’s power was indeed stronger than Guo Mingyu had imagined, incomparable even to the former Demon God.

Song Shuangfeng shouted, and Guo Mingyu signaled to him. Song Shuangfeng activated the Big Dipper, a not fully matured system. Fearing the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array couldn’t sustain the onslaught, if it failed, there would be nothing left to counter the Sea Demon.

The Big Dipper awoke and absorbed a streamline of energy, immediately bolstering the defense with a surge that raised the power to a new level. At last, it stabilized and held back the tidal wave of energy released by the Sea Demon.

The Sea Demon exerted all its strength, releasing energy in an attempt to break through the reinforcement provided by the Big Dipper, but it would not be easy.

After a tense standoff that grew increasingly powerful, there was a loud boom, and another shockwave was released, devouring several houses between the Sea Demon and the Yin-Yang Tower.

Following the tremendous boom, there was a brief silence.

As the smoke cleared, the Sea Demon let out another howl. However, the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array withstood the attack unscathed and reactivated, setting its sights on the Sea Demon once more.

The Sea Demon’s plan to engulf the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array in one sweep had failed. The array was able to withstand the powerful energy from the Sea Demon.

Inside, the disciples of both the Immortal and Demon domains could not help but cheer unconsciously, as if they had seen a ray of hope and taken a heart-soothing pill. To them, as long as they could hold off the Sea Demon’s rampage, they would be able to tie down the people of the Dragon Slaying Clan. As long as they could entangle with the Dragon Slaying Clan, they believed they had a great chance of defeating them, especially with reinforcements from the New City Sect on the way.

Of course, they were elated.

Atop the city wall, Jing Po immediately released hundreds of Lion-faced Beasts that, fueled by some unknown force, bravely charged into the city, biting anyone they encountered.

Guo Mingyu quickly ordered Ling Jian to release the seven or eight domesticated Fire Qilins they had just trained.

Though the tamed Fire Qilins were no match for their wild counterparts in ferocity, they were still dominant against the invading Lion-faced Beasts. It was like Tibetan Mastiffs confronting ordinary dogs; the dogs were large but no match for the Tibetan Mastiffs.

The appearance of seven or eight Fire Qilins, in conjunction with Ling Jian’s people inside the city, began to get the upper hand over the Lion-faced Beasts.

Guo Mingyu was very aware that if the Sea Demon couldn’t breach the city, the only way the Demon Palace City could be broken was to create chaos within, and then seize the opportunity to penetrate the city’s defenses.

At this time, with the help of Xuan Wen, Ling Bo, Guan Yi, and Song Zheng’an, Demon Palace City had the advantage in numbers, and the Dragon Clan did not hold the upper hand.

The Sea Demon tried to break the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array by other means, but the Defense System had by then gauged the Sea Demon’s limits through the recent confrontation.

Song Shuangfeng walked over, and Guo Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Shuangfeng asked, “Master, do you think our Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array can annihilate the Sea Demon?”

Guo Mingyu looked thoughtful yet uncertain and replied, “Let’s not rush this.”

“Right, we don’t need to rush. If we can’t annihilate it and end up destroying the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array, how will we deal with the Sea Demon then?” Song Shuangfeng continued, “It would be better to wait for reinforcements from the New City Sect, which would give us an edge.”

“Any news of Ye Chen?”

“He and Yun’er will arrive tomorrow.”

“Hmm.”

The Sea Demon was finally held back from its killing spree by the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array.

After releasing the Lion-faced Beasts, Jing Po rushed back to see Longhun.

Longhun seemed calm, as though he had anticipated this.

Jing Po reported, “They’ve set up a new formation. I don’t know what kind of array it is, but it seems quite formidable. It actually stopped the Sea Demon from advancing further.”

Longhun said, “It’s the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array.”

“Young Master, how did you know?”

“I saw it,” Longhun continued. “Not bad. They indeed have some foundation, making use of the Big Dipper.”

“It’s different from the Taiji Array we faced last time, definitely not the previous Bagua Qiankun Array.”

“Of course, the Bagua Qiankun Array isn’t capable of holding back the Sea Demon. They’ve incorporated the Big Dipper into the Four Symbols, and you cannot underestimate its power.”

“Moreover, they’ve raised seven or eight quite formidable Fire Qilins. It seems those Lion-faced Beasts are no match for them.”

“A few domesticated Fire Qilins, lacking wild ferocity, won’t be that impressive,” Jing Po said.

“I’m afraid the Sea Demon will have a tough time breaking the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array,” Jing Po commented.

“It’s only just begun. Whether it can be broken or not is still hard to say,” Longhun replied with a cold smile.

“An array cannot possibly be built in just a day or two,”

Longhun nodded and said, “Of course, how could an array constructed in one or two days hold off the Sea Demon? If such an array could stop the Sea Demon, then it would truly be worthless.”

“They were prepared in advance.”

“Guo Mingyu still has some sense of risk.”

“But that won’t spare them. The people from New City Sect are already on their way here.”

“No need to rush, the time we have is ample,” Longhun said. “They hope to use the New City Sect to join forces against us, but they never asked whether I would agree to their plan.”
