Chapter 747: Chapter 747: Immortal Array Master
"Beidou Immortal Trapping Array, activate!"
A voice emanated from Lan Hongming’s mouth.
Suddenly, spiritual energy surged between heaven and earth and then shot towards the sky.
Following that, an energy shield enveloped Ling Chen.
"Bang!"
Ling Chen directly collided against a layer of light barrier.
This Spirit Array appeared so abruptly that Ling Chen had no time to react.
However, with his Spiritual Power protecting his body and his formidable physical strength, he remained unharmed.
"A mere Spirit Array dares to block my path?"
Ling Chen sneered.
Sword Qi burst forth from the Red Long Sword, then condensed into a solid blade of light.
It was the Demon Sword!
"Break!"
With a swing of the Red Long Sword, the Demon Sword shot out like a cannonball, powerfully piercing the light barrier ahead.
"Boom!"
The light barrier trembled.
However, it ultimately held firm.
"Huh? This strong?"
A touch of surprise flickered in Ling Chen’s eyes.
The Array that Lan Hongming casually set up had such strong defenses, even stronger than the Circulation Star Array of the Star Pavilion.
"Kid, you think such attacks can break my Immortal Spirit Array?"
Lan Hongming’s voice came from outside.
He was a Divine Thought Master and also a top-tier Immortal Array Master.
When Divine Soul Attacks were ineffective, he would resort to using Immortal Spirit Array techniques.
"Bang bang bang..."
Dozens of top-tier Spirit Crystals shattered, and at Lan Hongming’s thought, these energies rapidly surged towards the Beidou Immortal Trapping Array, making the energy shield even more dazzling.
"Is that so?"
Ling Chen smiled slightly.
The Red Long Sword in his hand disappeared, replaced by a purple longsword!
Purple Profound Sword!
A top-tier Emperor Spiritual Weapon.
"Once more!"
Ling Chen roared loudly, once again condensing a Demon Sword, slicing towards the light barrier in front.
"Boom!"
The Beidou Immortal Trapping Array trembled once more.
Although it withstood this attack, the energy shield dimmed significantly.
"You, a mere Six-Star Emperor, actually refined Murong Ziyi’s Purple Profound Sword?"
Lan Hongming exclaimed in shock.
A top-tier Emperor Spiritual Weapon, not meant for those who can’t control the power of seven worlds.
"What, that’s the Purple Profound Sword?"
"That’s Murong Ziyi’s weapon!"
"He really defeated Murong Ziyi and even seized the latter’s Spiritual Weapon?"
...
The crowd exclaimed in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
Ling Chen, just a heaven-defying genius, had actually defeated a powerhouse?
"Let’s see how many more attacks your broken array can withstand."
Ling Chen smiled faintly.
The previous attack had already drained a large amount of energy from the Beidou Immortal Trapping Array.
It couldn’t possibly withstand his multiple attacks.
"Boom boom boom..."
Ling Chen wielded the Purple Profound Sword, unleashing one Demon Sword after another towards the Beidou Immortal Trapping Array.
"Bang bang bang..."
After the sixth Demon Sword was slashed, the array bases in the void completely exploded.
Lan Hongming’s figure reappeared in Ling Chen’s sight.
"Good! Worthy of being a victor against the prodigies!"
Lan Hongming applauded.
However, his tone shifted as he continued, "But still, you’re not yet qualified to defeat me!"
"Hmm?"
Ling Chen frowned slightly.
Lan Hongming still maintained such composure at this moment, could there be another trick up his sleeve?
But, his Immortal Spirit Array had already been broken by him!
"This move was originally intended to deal with those prodigies from Qing City. Unexpectedly, it has been forced out by you now. Well then, let me show you my true capabilities!"
Lan Hongming coldly shouted.
Divine Thought Master attacks are simple; their weaknesses are too apparent.
Thus, he learned the Spirit Array Technique.
The Spirit Array can also transform into a powerful attack!
"Void Destruction Slash!"
Lan Hongming stomped fiercely, and several streams of Divine Soul Telekinesis entered the void.
Following that, eighteen points of light emerged from the void.
These eighteen points of light were arranged in the shape of Longswords.
The instant the points of light appeared, the nature’s spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius was completely drained.
A white Spirit Sword quickly formed.
"What is this energy?"
Ling Chen’s eyes sharpened.
Although the Spirit Sword was formed from nature’s spiritual energy,
it emitted an aura that caused one’s heart to tremble.
"Slash!"
Lan Hongming roared, and the white Spirit Sword instantly burst towards Ling Chen.
More bizarre was that the white Spirit Sword intermittently became invisible, as if it could merge with the void.
"Green Lotus Dharma Sword!"
Facing such a strange attack, Ling Chen dared not be careless.
Immediately, one hundred and forty-four streams of Green Lotus Sword Qi burst forth from the Purple Profound Sword, then merged into a small red-and-green Magic Sword.
"Go!"
Led by the Purple Profound Sword, the red-and-green Magic Sword fiercely collided with the white Spirit Sword.
"Boom!"
The two actual light swords harshly collided, creating a thunderous noise that resonated shockingly.
Half of Soul City shook, resembling an earthquake.
This level of confrontation truly reached the level of a Seven-Star Emperor!
"This is terrifying, right?"
"My goodness! Is this really a Divine Thought Master’s technique?"
"Can a Divine Thought Master really launch such a terrifying attack?"
...
Countless Divine Thought Masters were thrilled to madness.
Initially, they thought Divine Thought Masters were not adept at combat—useless except for Divine Soul Attacks.
But the techniques Lan Hongming used overturned their perceptions.
It turns out, Divine Thought Masters also possess strength comparable to Spiritual Power Practitioners!
The two light swords wildly dueled in the sky.
The red-and-green Magic Sword, though small, was tremendously powerful.
Weird energy overflowed from the white Spirit Sword, which could even contend with Ling Chen’s World Power and Sword Dao!
Only after three breaths did the duel conclude.
Ultimately, the red-and-green Magic Sword prevailed, shattering the white Spirit Sword.
However, most of the power of the red-and-green Magic Sword was also exhausted.
During this lengthy time, Lan Hongming had already dodged and avoided the attack of the red-and-green Magic Sword.
"You actually broke my attack?"
Lan Hongming wore a face of disbelief.
His strike had definitely reached the peak of a Seven-Star Emperor!
Even an Eight-Star Emperor would have to use a top-grade Emperor Spirit Technique to shatter this attack.
Ling Chen, a Six-Star Emperor, achieving an attack close to an Eight-Star Emperor’s level, was simply inconceivable.
"This technique of yours is indeed formidable!"
Ling Chen nodded, admitting the prowess.
Ling Chen had also almost exhaustively used all his trump cards to shatter this attack.
"However, you are ultimately a Divine Thought Master! How many such attacks can you unleash?"
Ling Chen spoke indifferently.
The Green Lotus Dharma Sword, he could execute hundreds of times.
And with effortless ease.
Yet, Lan Hongming’s attack was evidently a Spirit Array Technique.
Setting up a Spirit Array takes time.
That Beidou Immortal Trapping Array a moment ago was certainly set up by Lan Hongming to buy time.
While its power was astonishing, its drawbacks were overly obvious.
Lan Hongming gave a bitter smile, saying, "Well then, to lose at your hands, I have no regrets."
"Take this!"
Lan Hongming flicked his fingers, and a Jade Bottle burst towards Ling Chen.
It contained one hundred Soul Gathering Pills.
He conceded the defeat and would not go back on his word.
Then, he left the place, riding on Divine Soul Telekinesis.
