448: Chapter 448 A Half-Saint Approaches, A Multicolored Poison Array
Swish!
While Hun Tiandi was continuously slaughtering magical beasts, the Blood God Children scattered throughout the Pill World were searching for the territory of that magical beast.
Whenever they encountered any heavenly treasures, regardless of their medicinal age or whether they were seeds,
they directly plundered and took them away. That Rank 8 magical beast had dominated the Pill World for so long that there would certainly be no shortage of heavenly treasures in its cave dwelling.
All the resources within the Pill World fell into his hands.
For at least a hundred years, the Pill World would hold no value. If the Dan Ta Three Giants knew that the Pill World had been ravaged like this,
even if they had to hunt him across the entire continent, they would never give up.
The Blood Shadow Clone was stationed in Chang'an City, waiting for the people from the Xiao Family to show themselves.
A group of experts from the Xiao Family flew over with great momentum: three Half-Saints, six Dou Zuns, twelve Dou Zongs, twenty-four Dou Huangs...
As the group of experts approached Chang'an City, inside Longevity Hall,
the Blood Shadow Clone sat upon the dragon throne, eyes closed and silent, fingers lightly tapping the throne as the civil and military officials of the court waited.
Suddenly, a figure flickered within the hall; Elder Dan had arrived.
"They're here?" the Blood Shadow Clone asked immediately, opening his eyes.
"They're here. Three Half-Saints, six Dou Zuns, twelve Dou Zongs, and twenty-four Dou Huangs!" Elder Dan nodded solemnly.
"What a grand gesture!" the Blood Shadow Clone said with an evil smile.
To the south of Chang'an City, a group of figures suddenly appeared, led by three elders with a line of experts following behind.
Halting their flight, they looked at the strange Chang'an City.
From afar, they had seen countless golden lights soaring into the sky, but upon arrival, they found that this Dazheng Dynasty was indeed different.
Countless mists flowed, blurring the view.
"An array?" one of the elders said solemnly. To think a tiny dynasty would actually have an array master.
"Who goes there? State your name!" a general guarding the distance shouted.
"Hmph!" one of the elders snorted coldly. The general instantly spat out blood, looking at the figures in mid-air with a look of horror.
"Enemy attack!" a guard shouted. Countless Qi-Breaking Arrows shot out from the South Gate like a rainstorm.
Bang...
Suddenly, the rain of arrows exploded in mid-air, and many guards were injured by the shockwaves.
"By His Majesty's decree, the South Gate guards are to retreat to the Triple Character Camp!" The voice of an imperial edict rang out from somewhere unknown.
"Yes!" the guards responded and quickly departed.
In front of Longevity Hall, the Blood Shadow Clone led his ministers, looking out beyond the South Gate.
He gazed coldly into the distance and saw three figures with sharp auras. As if sensing him, their gazes pierced through the South Gate, looking directly at Longevity Hall.
A vast gaze collided with the Blood Shadow Clone's.
A Half-Saint was a Half-Saint, but Hun Tiandi was no longer the Hun Tiandi of the past. His cultivation had grown powerful, and even facing the gaze of a Half-Saint expert, he remained composed.
"The experts of the Xiao Family... you think you can kill me with just these few people?" the Blood Shadow Clone said arrogantly and overbearingly.
Although they were a hundred miles apart, the Blood Shadow Clone's voice fell directly into the ears of the invading Xiao Family experts.
"Hun Tiandi!" the Xiao Family Half-Saint said coldly.
"Jiejiejie! Back then, neither the Xiao Family nor the Starfall Pavilion could keep me. On my home turf of the Dazheng Empire, what can you possibly do to me?"
Hun Tiandi said disdainfully.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Xiao Family experts turned somewhat ugly.
"Among the younger generation, you are the only one the Xiao Family miscalculated. But today, my Xiao Family comes to correct that mistake. Today, we shall slaughter you and destroy your dynasty!"
The Xiao Family Half-Saint said coldly. After speaking, the experts behind him moved to surround Chang'an City.
"Are they going to make a move?" Elder Dan said coldly in front of Longevity Hall.
Just then, the Xiao Family Half-Saint flicked his sleeve and pointed a finger toward the Blood Shadow Clone. A flash of lightning streaked out at incredible speed.
Wherever it passed, space shattered; even the Array Emperor' array could not stop it.
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, it arrived before Longevity Hall, pointing straight at the Blood Shadow Clone's forehead.
"Presumptuous!" the Blood Shadow Clone snorted. A bloody aura surged from his body, carrying a viscous corrosion, as if the lightning had plunged into a swamp.
Its speed slowed down. Suddenly, Elder Dan stepped in front, his aged palm reaching out to grab the lightning flash.
Crack!
With a sudden burst of strength, he crushed the lightning into nothingness.
Outside the South Gate, the Xiao Family Half-Saint's eyes narrowed, looking at the old man with some surprise.
Elder Dan and the Xiao Family Half-Saint faced each other from a great distance, their emotions being quite different.
The Xiao Family Half-Saint was solemn, while Elder Dan was as deep as an abyss.
The Blood Shadow Clone flicked his sleeve, and many figures flew out from Chang'an City to face the Xiao Family experts.
The Two Venerables of Qingyun, the four Human Puppets, the Dou Zong experts from Lieyang Pavilion and True Water Palace, and the Dou Huang experts like Su Mei stood proudly.
"This... how is this possible?" the other two Half-Saints also said in surprise.
The experts they brought from the Xiao Family were originally a massive force that even first-rate powers in the Central Plains would find hard to produce!
When Xiao Lin made the arrangements and brought so many experts, the three Half-Saints hadn't understood why.
Now they understood; this Dazheng Empire was very strange.
The Xiao Family Half-Saint expert scanned the scene coldly, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.
"A Half-Saint of the Xiao Family? You can't do anything to me. Scram!" Hun Tiandi said coldly.
"Hahaha, I can't do anything to you?" Intense killing intent rose in the Xiao Family Half-Saint's eyes.
"Whatever methods you have, bring them out!" the Blood Shadow Clone said solemnly.
Izumo Empire!
The Emperor of Chuyun revealed another trump card. Before the two opposing armies, a surging mist suddenly rose, which was very strange.
The mist was not white, but multicolored, brilliant and bizarre.
General Ye Wudi's army watched the multicolored mist coldly, naturally knowing that the mist definitely contained killing intent.
"Throw a magical beast in to see!" General Ye Wudi said solemnly.
Immediately, a guard threw in a low-rank magical beast. It was suddenly corroded and burned, its body turning into a pool of bloody water—gone!
"Potent poison, such strong toxicity!" General Ye Wudi exclaimed.
"The Multicolored Poison Array!" the Dou Zong expert guarding General Ye Wudi's safety said coldly.
"Old Li, do you recognize this array?" General Ye Wudi asked.
"This is a poison array. Once activated, it is no longer under anyone's control until the array's power is exhausted!"
"This array uses three thousand types of potent poisons as its foundation and a weapon as the array core. Once formed, no one can control it. It forms a poisonous miasma that protects the interior and blocks the exterior. This poison can corrode anything; only a Dou Huang expert charging with full strength..."
Old Li said solemnly.
"In the short term, the army cannot move out!" General Ye Wudi frowned.
"Yes, the Izumo army is stalling for time!" Old Li responded.
"Old Li, is there any way to break it?" General Ye Wudi's eyes were cold and disdainful.
"Yes, it just needs to be washed away with water. It can be broken in a month, and the poisonous mist will dissipate!" Old Li said solemnly.
"Guards! Summon the water-attribute Dou Qi practitioners to gather water and wash it away immediately. Summon the wind-attribute practitioners to gather clouds for me. This commander will definitely break this array!" General Ye Wudi ordered.
"Yes!" The guards immediately took action, and General Ye Wudi then sent a message to His Majesty.
Before long, several experts began to act.
Boom!
Clouds and mist filled the air, thunder rumbled, and rain began to fall!
Crash...
The rain continuously washed the Multicolored Poison Array. The array was very strange; it emitted poisonous mist to constantly replenish itself.
Chuyun City, within the imperial court!
Naturally, these were the Emperor of Chuyun's confidants. "Your Majesty, washing it with rain for a month can break the array!" the expert who set up the poison array said worriedly.
"No matter, a month is enough. The Tianshe Empire's army is also about to arrive!" the Emperor of Chuyun said.
