90: Soul-stealing array - breaking

"Keep bombarding it for me!"

Putting aside the System's purpose in bringing him to Transmigration, its strength was indeed extraordinary.

If Lin Chuping had gone himself and faced such a large Formation, he would have been crippled if not dead.

The power of Formations lay in their tireless nature; as long as there was enough energy, they could operate continuously.

But people always get tired.

As the Thunder Punishment intensified, the entire Prefecture City shook violently, the ground undulated like waves, countless houses collapsed, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

However, those dying people lying on the ground were miraculously unharmed—the Thunder Punishment divine art only punished evil, not the innocent!

Finally—

"Crack!"

A crisp cracking sound came from underground, as if some kind of shackles had been broken.

Within Lin Chuping's divine sight, the blood-red net covering the entire city disintegrated inch by inch, and the life force that had been drained rose from the ground like fireflies, slowly returning to the bodies of the dying commoners.

It's done! This man-eating Spirit-奪取 Array is finally broken!

The System's mechanical reward sound followed.

"Ding! Evil Formation, Spirit-奪取 Array, has been broken. Reward: Incense value +100,000!"

The thunderclouds gradually dispersed, and daylight reappeared.

On the streets, some people struggled to sit up, looking around in a daze; some trembled as they reached out, touching the long-lost sunlight; there were also children's cries, old people's coughs, faint calls... They could feel that, just a moment ago, something important seemed to have returned to their bodies.

In an instant, it was as if they had become ten years younger.

This dead city finally welcomed life.

Lin Chuping slowly revealed his figure under the gaze of everyone.

He was not a Saint who "does good deeds without seeking fame."

His experience in his previous life told him that doing practical things was important, and publicity was equally important.

His efforts this time were, of course, for incense value. If no one knew it was Lin Chuping who did it, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

A series of fierce actions, only to find the incense value was still zero.

Lin Chuping let out a long breath. After his figure fully appeared, he suddenly felt lightheaded and almost fell from the bell tower.

This state, it was like staying up all night working out, his whole body aching.

This shouldn't be!

According to his understanding, the System was like a game to him; he just needed to furiously operate the keyboard and release skills.

The System was the main attacker, and he was the support and commander. They cooperated tacitly, with clear division of labor.

Why was it that the main attacker wasn't affected much, but he, the commander, was so tired he almost collapsed?

"Tong Ge, why am I so weak?"

Lin Chuping leaned on the railing of the bell tower, feeling all his spiritual Qi drained, not even wanting to move a finger.

The current scene easily brought to mind a patron who had indulged in a brothel all night, finally having to lean against a wall to leave after paying all his savings.

Damn, that's too vivid.

"Ding! Does the Host have any misunderstanding about 'System as main attacker'?"

"Misunderstanding?"

"In the novels I read, the System just goes 'ding,' and the protagonist instantly becomes invincible. Why do I have to work like a dog with you?"

"Ding! This System is for output, not a proxy player."

"Then you're too unprofessional, aren't you?"

Lin Chuping complained, "Other Systems are 'one-click instant kill,' 'automatic Cultivate,' 'lie-down-and-win mode'..."

"Ding! Detecting the Host's poor mental state. It is recommended to read fewer brainless 'power fantasy' novels to avoid affecting intelligence."

"You f*cking..."

Lin Chuping almost laughed in anger, "Tong Ge, have you been studying modern internet slang recently? Your words are so venomous!"

"Ding! You flatter me."

***

Lin Chuping steadied himself, stood with his hands behind his back, and slowly descended from the bell tower, his robes fluttering.

With each step he took, a golden lotus bloomed beneath his feet, supporting him as he landed steadily.

"Everyone."

His voice was not loud, but it clearly spread throughout the entire city, "The evil Formation has been broken. You can all rest assured."

"I will also eradicate the remaining evil Yao, one by one. From now on, you can all live peacefully here."

After Lin Chuping's words fell, it took a full five minutes for the commoners in the city to awaken as if from a dream, falling to their knees one after another.

"A deity has appeared!"

"Thank you, Immortal, for saving our lives!"

"May the divine Lord protect us!"

"Divine Lord, you've finally come!"

"..."

Lin Chuping's lips curved slightly; the effect was even better than he had expected.

He raised his hand in a gesture to help them up: "Rise, all of you. I merely passed by this place and could not bear to see evil harming people."

"From now on, this Prefecture City will no longer suffer from evil Yao. All of you may rest easy."

After speaking, Lin Chuping turned as if to leave, counting in his mind.

"Immortal, this old man is a scholar in this city. May I ask for your venerable title, Immortal? So we may erect a longevity tablet and offer daily worship."

An old voice came, and sure enough, there were still smart people, hahaha!

Lin Chuping paused his steps, then his voice spread throughout the entire Prefecture City.

"This Venerable is Lin Chuping."

Leaving this sentence, Lin Chuping's figure gradually disappeared.

***

"Tong Ge, what happened just now? Why did I feel a palpitation in my heart!"

He frowned, instinctively looking in the direction of Chang Sheng Village.

"Ding! Warning! Detecting violent fluctuations in the life signs of your follower Liu Chunsheng and others!"

"What?!"

Lin Chuping's expression changed abruptly. With a thought, he teleported outside Chang Sheng Village and saw the tragic scene of the villagers struggling to resist the blood fiend's attack.

A dense, dark mass covered the sky around Chang Sheng Village. Flying birds, walking beasts, snakes, insects, ants, jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards, and various demons and monsters gathered together.

What was this?

Seventy-two paths of demons coming together to attack him?

What audacity!

He hadn't expected that while he was raiding the blood fiend's lair, the blood fiend would also come to raid his home. Unfortunately, this god is one step ahead.

Lin Chuping's eyes were icy cold, and he sneered.

"Since you've all come, then don't leave."

"System, strike them for me! Leave no Yao Race member who participated in today's siege!"

"Ding! The Myriad Incense Become God System reminds you that repeatedly overdrawing your body may lead to kidney deficiency."

Lin Chuping: "..."

Isn't it just kidney deficiency?

Let's do it!

***

The villagers below were still resisting. Even with the blessing of the Amulet, they were steadily retreating under the blood fiend's attack.

"Damn, why is this blood fiend suddenly so fierce?"

"Could it be that its lair was wiped out?"

"Looks like it!"

"Good thing we have the divine talismans bestowed by Lord Chuping, otherwise, with that last attack, we would have directly Transmigrated to the ghost Dao."

"..."

After all, they were on Chang Sheng Village's territory. Although the blood fiend's attack was sudden, everyone wasn't too panicked.

Their trust in Lord Chuping made their excitement outweigh their fear in this life-or-death moment.

"Hold on! This must be Lord Chuping's test for us. Let's all show off our best skills!"

"Brothers, let's fight them to the death!"

With the divine temple behind him, Liu Chunsheng felt full of courage. Even facing a blood fiend as tall as a small house, he felt no fear in his heart.

Seeing Liu Chunsheng, his face covered in blood, still charging forward, the others were also infected.
