246: Chapter 245 The Seven Luminaries are getting desperate! Twelve Great Luo Golden Immortals descend to the mortal realm.

Above the firmament, the starlight was so brilliant it inspired despair.

Those twelve pillars of starlight were not mere manifestations of energy; they contained extremely profound Laws of Stars. They were arranged according to the twelve Earthly Branches—Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, and so on—their Qi interconnected, instantly forming a peerless killing Formation that covered a radius of a million li: the [Twelve Yuan-Chen Stellar Array]!

The moment this grand array appeared, the entire Zhentian City was instantly cut off from the outside world.

Space was completely locked down, rendering even spatial Talismans useless; the flow of time became incredibly viscous, as if stuck in a mire; even the Five Elements Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth was forcibly drained, converted into violent stellar killing power.

This was a true case of catching a turtle in a jar! Closing the door to beat the dog!

*Hiss—!!*

"That's... the foundation of the Qiyao Immortal Palace! The Twelve Yuan-Chen Star Sovereigns!"

Wan Sanqian, who had just managed to crawl up, saw the figures gradually emerging in the sky. His knees buckled again, and he collapsed onto the ground like a puddle of mud. His face was as white as paper, and his lips trembled incessantly.

"It's over... this time it's truly over..."

He knew all too well the weight these twelve individuals carried.

Zi Rat, Chou Ox, Yin Tiger... all the way to Hai Pig.

These twelve Star Sovereigns were not ordinary Golden Immortals, but death warriors secretly nurtured by the Seven Luminaries Immortal King over tens of thousands of years using the Origin of Stars! They possessed no emotions and no sense of pain, only absolute obedience and a killing instinct.

The most terrifying part was that every single one of them was a genuine Early Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

A total of twelve Grand Unity Golden Immortals!

This force was enough to sweep through any major power outside the core of the Immortal Court! It was more than enough even to annihilate an entire Immortal Domain attempting rebellion!

And now, all of them had been sent out, even resorting to a grand array, just to kill one person?

What level of importance was this? And what level of... madness?

"Has the Seven Luminaries Immortal King gone mad? Privately mobilizing so many Grand Unity Golden Immortals to the Lower Realm... if they disrupt the balance of the Lower Realm, the Immortal Emperor will surely punish him once he leaves seclusion!"

"What do you know! The Immortal Emperor is currently wandering the Great Void, in a state of death-seclusion! Seven Luminaries is taking advantage of the time gap to act first and report later!"

The Cultivators who were originally just watching the spectacle were now scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. Under the pressure of Grand Unity Golden Immortals, they were as insignificant as ants.

Under the terrified gaze of the multitude.

Twelve figures, resembling gods and demons, slowly stepped out from the pillars of starlight.

They wore stellar battle armor corresponding to the Chinese zodiac, and their bodies were surrounded by terrifying halos of Law. Some were as burly as mountains, wielding giant hammers; some were hunched and cold, clutching twin daggers; some had wings on their backs, their arrogance reaching the heavens.

The combined pressure of twelve Grand Unity entities caused the ground of Zhentian City to crack, and countless buildings collapsed, turning into fine powder.

"Lin Feng!"

The leader, Star Sovereign Zi Rat, was a short man with a withered face. However, the aura radiating from him was the most sinister. He hovered at the eye of the array and let out a sharp, piercing voice:

"By the decree of the Immortal King! Today, we shall execute the rebel here!"

"At this moment, in heaven or on earth, no one can save you!"

"Surrender now, and we will leave your corpse intact! Otherwise, we shall ensure your Divine Soul is utterly destroyed, never to be reincarnated for all eternity!"

The voice rolled like thunder, causing Liu Ming and the others to cough up blood, but they still gripped their weapons tightly, standing before Lin Feng with determined eyes.

"Chief! You must leave! We will burn our essence blood to blast an opening for you!"

"Leave?"

Looking at the twelve figures slowly descending above him, Lin Feng showed no sign of panic. Instead, he reached out and nudged Liu Ming aside.

"Where is there to go? This Formation has even locked down Karma. Unless you're a Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal, no one is getting out."

Lin Feng stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the twelve Star Sovereigns.

Facing a lineup that would drive any Golden Immortal to despair, a hint of... excitement actually appeared on his face.

Yes, excitement.

Like a Taotie that had been starving for three days seeing a grand imperial feast.

Or like a player who had just finished their end-game gear set finally encountering a World Boss.

"Tsk tsk tsk, twelve Grand Unity Golden Immortals..."

Lin Feng's gaze swept over the twelve Star Sovereigns. There was no fear in his eyes; instead, they were filled with greed.

"Fugui, look at these guys. The armor on them is forged from Stellar Fine Gold, the weapons in their hands are all top-tier Immortal Artifacts, and the Primordial Spirits inside them are even greater tonics..."

"If we slaughter all twelve of these guys, do you think it'll be enough to feed your third tail out?"

Huang Fugui, perched on Lin Feng's shoulder, had also recovered from his initial fright. Sensing the soaring Battle Intent from Lin Feng, the ferocity within its own body was completely triggered.

It sat upright, wiped the drool from the corner of its mouth, its small eyes glowing with a green light:

"Squeak squeak! Master! This is a huge tonic! These twelve guys are sparkling with starlight; they look very chewy! Especially that pig-headed one, he looks the juiciest! And that ox-headed one, his bull whip must be quite good too!"

"Hahaha! Good!"

Lin Feng laughed towards the sky, his laughter heroic and unrestrained, vibrating through heaven and earth. It actually managed to withstand the pressure of the twelve Grand Unity entities, even shaking and scattering the starlight in the sky slightly.

"Seven Luminaries, you old dog! You've sent me a delivery!"

"Knowing I just had a Breakthrough and lack sparring partners, and knowing I'm short on resources, you eagerly sent twelve Grand Unity Golden Immortals?"

"You're surprisingly kind! I almost want to send you a commemorative banner!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire field fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone wondered if they had misheard or if they were hallucinating.

Delivery? Sparring partners?

These were twelve Grand Unity Golden Immortals! The top combat power in this world!

In this man's eyes, they were actually just food and sandbags?

"Arrogance!!"

Star Sovereign Zi Rat was furious, an emotion called anger appearing for the first time on that corpse-like face. "You dare talk big when death is at your doorstep! You ignorant fool!"

"Form the array! Stellar Extinction!!"

Boom!

With his command, the twelve Star Sovereigns acted simultaneously.

Twelve Law powers converged, drawing upon the power of the Nine Heavens stars to transform into a destructive pillar of light ten thousand meters in diameter. Carrying a terrifying power that could erase everything and shatter the vacuum, it crashed down toward Lin Feng's head!

This strike was enough to wipe the entire Zhentian City off the map, leaving not even a speck of dust!

"Well timed!!"

Facing this world-ending strike, Lin Feng did not retreat; he advanced.

Golden light erupted from his entire body, every pore spewing golden divine radiance. He was like a burning golden sun, soaring into the sky to meet the pillar of destruction!

"I'll use you all... to test my blade!"

"No, to test my fists!"
