Chapter 338: The Calamity of the Immortal City
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was the auxiliary Immortal City of the Starry Sky Immortal City that was being attacked, and not the main city.
Di Jiu had already taken into consideration that the auxiliary Immortal City would be the frontline during a battle while he had been constructing the Starry Sky Immortal City. Therefore, one had to first conquer the auxiliary city before attacking the main city.
Yan Xiaosha’s eyes turned bloodshot when he saw the corpses littering the outside of the auxiliary city walls. Indeed, anyone could enter the Starry Sky Immortal City’s auxiliary city for business or simply to take a walk around. However, the residents of the auxiliary city had to possess sufficient contribution points.
There were many cultivators who had not met the qualification to reside within the auxiliary city inside the city now. However, a greater number of cultivators were outside the city.
Everyone knew that even if they were unable to enter the Starry Sky Immortal City’s auxiliary city, staying near the auxiliary city to cultivate would yield greater results than wandering in the Immortal World during its sunset state. However, all the cultivators who stayed outside the auxiliary city were killed.
The timely activation of the auxiliary city’s Defense Array prevented the city from being littered with corpses.
Several dozens of people were attacking the auxiliary city’s Defense Array outside the city.
Yan Xiaosha had originally intended to rush out and kill everyone. However, his hot-bloodedness cooled down when he saw who was attacking the auxiliary city.
There were at least two Great Unity Immortals and 7-8 Golden Immortals among them. The group mostly comprised of Golden Immortal experts who had at least a Golden Immortal Realm cultivation level.
The scary part was that he recognized them. They were Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples.
Yan Xiaosha was no match for them, but even if he was, he would not dare kill them.
The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was considered symbolic in the Immortal World. This sect was representative of the Immortal World as well. Anyone who dared to kill Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples would be targeted and attacked by the entire Immortal World.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Defense Array made continuous rumbling sounds as many experts attacked it. Although Yan Xiaosha trusted Di Jiu’s array formation skills, he doubted that the Defense Array would be able to withstand such powerful attacks.
“City Lord Yan, you’re here.” Yan Xiaosha was the first person Qu Tong saw when he hurried over.
Qu Tong might be the Assistant City Lord, but he had been in seclusion because there were currently not many people in the Starry Sky Immortal City. He believed that he would definitely be able to sense the Golden Immortal Realm soon, given the fact that he had been in reclusive cultivation beside the Sky Bamboo River. The Spirit Gathering Immortal Array Di Jiu had built had aided him in his cultivating process as well.
Yan Xiaosha sighed and said, “These people are simply too strong. I’m no match for them. We can only rely on the Defense Array…”
Upon seeing Yan Xiaosha’s worried expression, Qu Tong laughed and said, “City Lord Yan, the City Lord entrusted the control of the Starry Sky Immortal City’s Defense Array to you before he left. However, the control of the Defense Array of the auxiliary city is in my hands. Let me deal with them…”
After saying that, Qu Tong immediately threw out an array flag.
“Hold on, there are Great Unity Immortals among them…”
Yan Xiaosha had spoken too late, as Qu Tong had already activated the Defense Array.
Crack! The Defense Array emitted a cracking sound as a passageway leading into the center of the auxiliary city appeared. The entire auxiliary city was exposed to the cultivators attacking the auxiliary city’s Defense Array.
“Ha ha! The Defense Array has broken apart. Everyone follow me into the city. Let’s see what is so strange about this place that allows cultivators to transcend Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation and lets the light from providence shining on the entire Immortal World gather here.” A tall, pale-faced cultivator laughed as he took the lead and rushed into the city as soon as he saw the Defense Array open.
He was Hai Jie-er, a disciple of the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect Master Yi Zhen, who had a late-stage Great Unity Immortal Realm cultivation base. He was one of the cultivators with the highest cultivation level in this group.
Yi Zhen had entrusted the Sunset Immortal Protectorate to him.
According to the original plan, the group was supposed to split up and obtain information after they arrived at the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.
Hai Jie-er had not expected to get so lucky and capture a cultivator shortly after they arrived at the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. He learned about the Starry Sky Immortal City from this cultivator.
It was not unusual for the Sunset Immortal Protectorate to have an Immortal City where one could cultivate. However, things were different when this was an Immortal City where cultivators could cultivate and also transcend Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation.
He was a Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciple, which meant that he was even further away from what the sunset of the Immortal World symbolized. How could Thunder Tribulation occur in an Immortal World with no more light from providence, which had reached its doomsday?
Hai Jie-er was 100 percent sure that the outflow of the light from providence shining on the New Immortal Protectorate was related to the Starry Sky Immortal City. Therefore, he did not make the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples go their separate ways. Instead, he chose to let everyone enter the Starry Sky Immortal City.
His guess was correct, as there was a powerful Defense Array at the auxiliary city outside the Starry Sky Immortal City. It was evident that the secret behind the Starry Sky Immortal City was huge, given that even cultivators near the auxiliary city could cultivate. Even Hai Jie-er himself could cultivate outside the auxiliary Immortal City.
However, the Defense Array of the Starry Sky Immortal City’s auxiliary city was quite formidable. They had spent nearly an hour attacking the Defense Array before it cracked.
Hai Jie-er was the first to rush into the auxiliary city, while the rest of the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples followed him.
Despite their number, the cultivators of the auxiliary city were all weaklings compared to them. The auxiliary city was filled with a group of weaklings who had just attained the Perfected Immortal Realm. Only one Great Unity Immortal was sufficient to kill everyone in the city instantly.
The differences in divine powers and Dao techniques could not be countervailed by the number of cultivators.
“City Lord Qu, you…”
Yan Xiaosha looked at Qu Tong in astonishment. He did not understand why Qu Tong would open the auxiliary city’s Defense Array and let them in.
Qu Tong chuckled. “Watch this.”
Qu Tong once again threw out several array flags. Yan Xiaosha was shocked to see that all the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples who had entered the city had disappeared.
What had happened? His Spiritual Force landed on the border of the city walls. He soon saw that there was a violent spatial fluctuation, while some indistinct blood mists appeared.
Yan Xiaosha shouted in surprise, “City Lord Qu! I never thought that your array formation skills would be so powerful!”
He could see that Qu Tong had trapped the group of invaders at a corner of the auxiliary city.
Qu Tong laughed and said, “City Lord Yan, you have overestimated me. I could not identify what type of array this is. I only know that this is a Confinement Killing Array used for trapping people. The most I can do is rely on these array flags.”
“Did the City Lord give it to you?” Yan Xiaosha suddenly understood, as he also carried some array flags. The only difference was that these array flags controlled the Defense Array and the confinement array of the Starry Sky Immortal City.
Qu Tong nodded his head. “That’s right. The City Lord handed these to me so that I could guard the auxiliary city.”
Yan Xiaosha suddenly broke out into a cold sweat. He realized that he would have died if he had attempted to seize the Starry Sky Immortal City in front of Di Jiu. The fact that he had always thought that he was the most powerful cultivator in the entire Starry Sky Immortal City was laughable. Now, however, it seemed like it was only his own wishful thinking.
Given how powerful City Lord Di Jiu’s Array Dao techniques were, it would most likely only take Di Jiu an instant to kill him in the Starry Sky Immortal City.
“It is fortunate that they entered the trap…” said Yan Xiaosha hoarsely with a sudden sense of reverence. He should never have thought that everything was under his control. Fortunately, he only felt gratitude and loyalty to Di Jiu, so he did not possess any selfish desires.
Qu Tong pointed at the churning killing array and said, “I would have had to activate the strangulation array and kill them if they hadn’t entered the trap. The reason I trapped them is because I wanted to take some hostages and ask where these experts came from.”
Yan Xiaosha woke up from his stupor and said hastily, “Don’t kill them, City Lord Qu.”
“Why?” Qu Tong looked at Yan Xiaosha in confusion.
Yan Xiaosha said solemnly, “Because these people belong to the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect. Before the sunset of the Immortal World, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect had symbolized the Immortal World. It also used to be one of the most powerful immortal sects of the Immortal World. The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was originally in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate. The fact that they came here implies that they must have discovered the Starry Sky Immortal City. Killing the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples would cause the Starry Sky Immortal City to face the assault of the entire Immortal World in the future. Furthermore, there is a top-notch Immortal King in the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect…”
Qu Tong drew a gasp of cold air. He had never seen the Immortal World before its sunset, but he knew what an Immortal King was.
It was a true expert who had achieved immortality and was capable of destroying everything with a wave of his hand. The Starry Sky Immortal City’s Defense Array would most likely not be able to fend off a true Immortal King expert, no matter how powerful it was.
“What do we do?” asked Qu Tong warily.
Yan Xiaosha hesitated a little before he replied, “This confinement array should be able to confine them. Let’s determine our next step when the City Lord returns.”
…
“Everyone, stop moving!” Hai Jie-er stopped everyone who was attacking frantically in the Confinement Killing Array.
When everyone stopped attacking, Hai Jie-er said solemnly, “This Confinement Killing Array should be a level-six Confinement Killing Immortal Array. It is not something we could break open, regardless of whether anyone is controlling it, although I don’t know how such a rustic city could create such a remarkable Confinement Killing Array.”
“Are we going to wait for our deaths here?” asked another Great Unity Immortal with a frown.
Hai Jie-er sneered. “Wait for our deaths? The cultivators here would not dare kill Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples, no matter how fearless they are. Let’s just wait for them to bring up their conditions. We will agree to the conditions, regardless of what they are. Once we are released, we will kill everyone here and create a river of blood.”
Hai Jie-er was not talking nonsense. After all, if the people there had dared to kill them, a killing array would have been activated instead of the Confinement Killing Immortal Array.
