Chapter 970: Chapter 990: The Array to Break the Formation_1

"More or less, my sect has a similar saying."

"The same!"

Xiao Rulong and Ji You both laughed, expressing their sect’s attitude.

Lin Chen suddenly realized why they had stepped forward to help him today so resolutely.

On the one hand, they wanted to repay him for saving Zhu Yao and the others, and on the other hand, they wanted to establish a connection for the future.

Although Lin Chen hadn’t been recognized by the Emperor’s Seal yet, what if he succeeded in the end?

It wouldn’t be a loss, right?

Zhu Yao and the others spoke candidly, and Lin Chen didn’t feel there was anything wrong. After all, there’s no love without reason.

"Do you think we’ll be able to break the prohibition in the end?"

"Who knows?"

Lin Chen looked at the barrier surrounding the sacrificial altar, and a strange thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

If he were to use the blood fog he had absorbed into the Water and Fire Mirror to deal with the barrier, would it be effective?

Lin Chen carefully recalled that while the blood fog had spread earlier, there was no blood fog around the sacrificial altar, as if it had deliberately avoided that area.

Lin Chen didn’t try it.

With so many big shots around, even if his method really worked, who would end up with this arm?

It definitely wouldn’t be him. After all, he held little influence!

After waiting for about two hours, the three Tribulation Crossing Period experts returned. They had several additional injuries on their bodies, indicating they had experienced a fierce battle.

They were guarding the white-haired old man, but there was no sign of Yan Chusheng and the others.

"Where are the other three?"

"Escaped! They even tried to ambush us, but luckily, their injuries weakened them considerably. We managed to capture one, but the other three saw the situation was not favorable and immediately ran out of the cave."

"Did you find out how to break the prohibition?"

"We asked him, and he said there’s no way."

The white-haired old man sneered, "This immortal’s arm is no ordinary item. Since the immortal assigned us to guard it, they naturally worried about us stealing it for ourselves. If we had a way to break the prohibition, we might have taken it ourselves and not waited for you!"

As everyone heard this, their expressions changed.

That did make sense!

So what should they do?

An Elder Taishang from Xixuan Mountain sighed, "If there’s no other way, then we can only use the slow and steady method - to gradually wear it down..."

Kunlun Mountain Cave Master Tang Fankong nodded, "We can only try that. We’re here anyway, we can’t simply turn around and leave. And considering that the outside is filled with Demonic Beasts right now, it wouldn’t be possible to leave even if we wanted to."

"Let’s get started then!"

"We’ll allocate personnel and take turns in the battle, and there must be no pause in between. Let’s give it a try and see if we can break it!"

Lin Chen, feeling confused, turned and asked, "What do they mean by the slow and steady method?"

Long Yan’er explained, "It’s constructing an Array Formation to break the barrier, and then continuously depleting the barrier’s energy until the energy can’t keep up, ultimately causing the barrier to be completely shattered."

"An Array Formation to break the barrier?"

Lin Chen asked, "A formation specifically used to break through barriers?"

"Yes, you can simply understand it as a siege. The barrier is like a solid wall that can’t be penetrated. So, they’ll build a siege hammer outside the wall and continuously hammer at a specific spot of the wall."

"As long as the damage caused by the impact is greater than the restoration within the same time frame, the wall will surely be penetrated, regardless of how long it takes!"

"The Array Formation to break the barrier is like a siege hammer. Once it is set up, everyone will continuously inject spiritual energy into the formation to maintain the continuous impact on the barrier."

"With so many Great Circle of Void Separation experts participating, the power of the Array Formation would be immense, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it would be able to break the barrier. However, at the moment, there’s no other way, so this is the only method we have."

Prepared Cultivators quickly set up four Array Plates. Each Array Plate had three Void stage Experts sitting cross-legged in front of it, injecting spiritual energy into it.

Twelve Void Profound Experts began to inject spiritual energy all at once. The Array Formation was activated, and each of the four Array Plates extended a spiritual energy lance that resembled a laser beam. The lances then converged at a single point, launching a fierce and continuous assault on the barrier.

Lin Chen understood that this was the method of gathering twelve Void Profound Experts and launching an uninterrupted attack on the same point. The key now lay in whether the spiritual energy support or source of this Array Formation was sufficient.

The barrier didn’t even shake.

Clearly, this was going to be a lengthy process.

Lin Chen sat on the ground, looking at that perfect arm, but his mind was dwelling on another issue.

The four Immortal Slaves had one captured while the other three escaped. What would they do?

As Immortal Slaves, guarding this place for their master, they should have a way to contact their master, shouldn’t they?

When the Immortal Slaves are defeated, would they send a message to their master calling for reinforcements?

Meng Lan once said that although the passage between the Barren Wilderness and the Immortal Realm was severed, the door to the Immortal Realm was not closed. Yan Chusheng and the others could still be picked up and taken back to the Immortal Realm. Did that mean an Immortal could come down to the Barren Wilderness?

If Yan Chusheng and the others summoned their master, what would happen then?

Who could stand against a powerful true Immortal?
