Chapter 335: Chapter 334: Reinforcements Arrive (Second Update, Seeking Subscription)
"This is the distribution of the Demon Clan’s army, and the battle situation!" Lu Xuanji spoke, activating a secret technique, instantly evolving the battlefield situation in the void, revealing the confrontation between both sides.
The allocation of Demon Clan forces, the allocation of Human Clan forces, the directions of attack, and the movement of armies, etc., were all clearly demonstrated.
"How does he know these things?"
Jin Xi was surprised, a bit puzzled.
But she quickly suppressed her doubts and focused on observing the distribution of both sides’ forces and the structure of their confrontation.
She did not have much doubt about its authenticity.
She had immense trust in Lu Xuanji, a trust surpassing that for anyone else.
"So, True Monarch Beihe, True Monarch Guixu, True Monarch Li Fire and others, their target is the Blood Demon Mountains. As for attacking the Golden Crow clan, attacking the Kunpeng clan, attacking the Golden Eagle clan, etc., it’s just to cover up their real intentions!" Jin Xi remarked with a sigh: "Turns out, they have their eyes on the Six-grade Spirit Fruit, the Blood God Fruit!"
"Blood God Fruit, what is that?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"The Blood Demon lineage, although not as influential as the Golden Crow lineage, White Tiger lineage, and Kunpeng lineage, is still a major Demon Clan lineage. There is also a Six-grade Spirit Fruit known as Blood God Fruit, which can enhance one’s qi and blood and strengthen life force after consumption."
"It is highly beneficial for Nascent Soul cultivators, and even more beneficial for those at the ninth layer of Nascent Soul, with a thirty percent chance to step into half-step Divinity Transformation!"
"This battle, surprisingly, is for the Blood God Fruit!"
Jin Xi looked at the scene, feeling a sense of realization.
The clarity of the situation was due to a lack of intelligence and key information, but now that everything was linked together, some issues had corresponding answers.
"So, the great battle between the Human Clan and Demon Clan, covering such a wide range, is all for the Blood God Fruit!" Lu Xuanji slightly frowned: "Can’t they just purchase the fruit? Why insist on this, causing a great battle!"
"Blood God Fruit is extremely rare even among the Demon Clan, how could they sell it to the Human Clan? Ask yourself, would the Human Clan sell its strategic resources to the Demon Clan?" Jin Xi retorted: "On one hand, it’s for the Blood God Fruit, and on the other hand, it’s to weaken the Demon Clan. Recently, the Demon Clan has become strong, and the Human Clan intends to seize this opportunity for a surprise attack to eliminate their elite!"
"What’s your task in this battle?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"My task is primarily to distract part of the Demon Clan’s forces and conduct mobile attacks on their territory. During the battle, I have killed a Nascent Soul Great Python, thus completing my task." Jin Xi said, with a hint of bitterness: "As for the task of attacking the Blood Demon Mountains, it’s not my responsibility!"
The words contained bitterness.
Naturally, the attack on the Blood Demon Mountains was assigned to the direct cultivators of the Dan Yang Sect.
As for guest cultivators like Jin Xi, who joined halfway as guest ministers, they wouldn’t participate in the Blood Demon Ridge battle.
Lu Xuanji said: "Just now, I attempted an attack, but nine clones perished. Blood thunderstorm struck, and Lu Family cultivators suffered significantly. Originally, I thought Celestial Wolf Mountain didn’t have a Nascent Soul Great Demon in command, making it easy to breach, but I didn’t expect the arrays to be quite fierce! I underestimated the power of the array group here."
"You are an array master, you should have ways to break the array!"
Jin Xi, besides being a Nascent Soul True Monarch, was also a fifth-grade array master, and she should have methods to break through the arrays of Celestial Wolf Mountain Range.
"You overestimate me!" Jin Xi spoke: "In the core area, there are thirty-six fourth-grade arrays, twelve fifth-grade arrays, and even two sixth-grade arrays. The combination of many arrays together is extremely terrifying. The array activated now is merely a third, and many arrays have yet to launch, mainly to reduce energy consumption."
"Even if some arrays are luckily breached, others quickly replace them, and array masters step forward to repair any damage."
"Such an array group is hard to breach; if I act, it would take at least seven days to break through. But within seven days, the enemy would have long arrived for support. According to the agreement, the attack on the Hundred Thousand Mountains may last at most three days... some cultivators will begin to retreat on the second day."
"Our time is running out!"
Only then did Lu Xuanji furrow his brows, realizing the situation was becoming troublesome and problematic.
No wonder the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Celestial Wolf Race were confident in going to support the battle, not worried about their home being raided, as they had sufficient knowledge of the array here.
Jin Xi, being a fifth-grade array master, still required seven days.
If other people came, it would take even longer.
Lu Xuanji asked: "Is there a quicker method to break the array?"
"Yes!"
Jin Xi nodded: "If a Divinity Transformation Celestial Venerable appeared, one full strike would instantly break through the array group here. If a sixth-grade array master acted, setting up an Annihilation Array, it could shake the arrays here, breaking them with arrays. If there were a sixth-grade magical treasure, with seven or eight Nascent Soul cultivators jointly activating it, it could also breach the array group!"
"Indeed, perhaps with seven or eight Human Clan True Monarchs jointly activating the Dan Yang Cauldron, this sixth-grade spiritual treasure could directly break open the grand array of the Blood Demon Mountains!"
"The Chaos Palace is of an even higher grade, if activated with part of its power, it could also break the array..."
Saying this, Jin Xi fell silent.
The Chaos Palace was of higher grade; if it could be not used, it would avoid attracting some people’s greedy calculations.
"I have a treasure that can break the arrays of Celestial Wolf Mountain, only my magical power is limited, and I cannot activate it!"
Lu Xuanji said, taking out the Cave Heaven Pearl and handing it over.
"This is a spiritual treasure made of Five-Colored Soil; this is the Cave Heaven Pearl?" Jin Xi took the pearl, glancing at it, a trace of envy flashing in her eyes: "Five-Colored Soil, in terms of weight and solidity, is second only to the Nine Heavens and Earth. Don’t be fooled by its lightness in your hand, that’s because you’ve refined it. In fact, its weight is greatest!"
"If aided by the Cave Heaven Pearl, the core arrays of the Celestial Wolf Race can be breached, but this is a seventh-grade spiritual treasure. If used in this battle, it would be enough to attract the greed of Nascent Soul True Monarchs and Divinity Transformation experts!"
"Haha!"
Lu Xuanji laughed: "Xi’Er, in terms of arrays, I am not as good as you. But in artifact refining, you are not as good as me. Do you know the Cave Heaven Pearl was just a grain of sand on the Dan Yang Peak, hidden among many grains of sand? Had I not been lucky, I might not have discovered its profundity!"
"Xi’Er, look at it again!"
Lu Xuanji laughed, directly activating the Cave Heaven Pearl, its shape instantly changing.
Transforming into a black pearl.
Jin Xi took the pearl, observed it carefully, and said: "This is a fifth-grade Array-breaking Pearl!"
The Array-breaking Pearl is a special kind of magical treasure with no peculiar functions, its only function is to break arrays.
The Array-breaking Pearl is extremely challenging to refine, requiring incredibly high array techniques and artifact refining skills.
Moreover, it needs to absorb the force of the earth veins, melding it within to interfere with array operation.
Each time the Array-breaking Pearl is activated, when its internal geoshadow is exhausted, it requires a certain amount of time to recharge.
