Chapter 502: 316 Breaking the Formation_1

The elder responded with a bitter smile. He was well aware of the implications if the sect leaders were to perish in the array. Their seven sects would plunge into chaos, and it might even trigger a war.

The Heavenly Saint Sect shifted their gaze and began speaking, “Senior, you’ve been forthright but have not mentioned leaving yet. There must be something else you want to say, probably related to breaking the array. Don’t keep it to yourself, feel free to tell us.”

“I do have another method,” the elder nodded and revealed a sliver of hesitation and worry. This method was perilous. A slight miscalculation could lead to the sect leaders’ harm. If anything were to go wrong, he wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility. The risk involved was tenfold greater than before.

“The method is simple. Instead of finding the weak points, we forcefully break the array. However, the power created when the hundred thousand spirit stones explode is unimaginable. I fear the sect leaders may not be able to withstand it. This has been my concern all along, and why I was hesitant to share. Please, consider this carefully.”

Taking a deep breath, the elder continued, “Previously, when we couldn’t solve an array, we resorted to this method. Though those arrays only consisted of one to two thousand spirit stones which didn’t pose a threat to one’s life. But this time, we face an array made of hundred thousand spirit stones, and its power has increased a hundred times.”

Even as an Array Master who has devoted a hundred years to research, he could not assure the sect leaders of anything. This might be the only way out, and he hoped they would carefully consider. He might not claim to be the best among the Array Masters, but if even he couldn’t solve this array, then few could, unless they sought out hidden experts.

All the sect leaders fell silent. Reaching this point in the elder’s explanation, they understood the risks involved. All of them had reached the Half-step Saint Seat realm, making them more afraid of death than ordinary people. As cultivators, who didn’t yearn to enter the Saint Seat?

Not needing long to consider, Celica Shingo, a straightforward man, agreed, “I agree. There’s no point in being trapped in the array anyway. And even if the hundred thousand spirit stones explode, we can try to create a defensive barrier together. Even if we can’t fully prevent the spreading damage, we’ll only suffer minor injuries.”

“Senior, what are the chances of us surviving?” The Sect Leader of Heavenly Sword Sect was cautious, he intended to understand the odds clearly to decide whether to take the risk or not. If the survival chances were less than ten percent, he would not ask the elder to act, he would rather seek other experts instead.

There were several Array Masters in this world. He didn’t believe that not one could break the array. If the array was indeed unbreakable, Logan and his party wouldn’t have waited around for them to perish. Wouldn’t it be better to watch them die instead? Furthermore, if such a flawless array existed, even the Saint Seat would be rendered useless.

“The explosion of a hundred thousand spirit stones is equivalent to a full strike by a Saint Seat. The seven of you, in your Half-step Saint Seat realm, naturally can’t withstand a Saint Seat’s full strike, but neither will you directly die and descend to the Yellow Springs. In terms of cultivation realms, you understand more than me. Hence, it’s up to you to calculate your survival chances,” replied the elder, spreading his hands out,

“In any case, if anything goes wrong, I certainly can’t bear to take responsibility given your vast influence. Everything needs to be clarified beforehand. Even if you’re destroyed, your sects can’t seek revenge. You need to decide on everything that needs to be addressed to avoid being unable to speak your mind once you’re gone.”

“The survival rate is fifty percent!” answered Celica Shingo. It would be difficult for them to block a full attack by the Saint Seat. After all, Half-step Saint Seat only stands in the Dominator Mirror realm, looking as weak as ants in the eyes of the Saint Seat. However, there were seven of them in total, which provided considerable defensive power when they combined forces.

“Let’s risk it!” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect took a deep breath. There was no other way, and even if there were other Array Masters available, their skills may not be higher than the elder in front of him, who had the greatest reputation and had devoted a hundred years to the study of arrays. They couldn’t think of a suitable replacement.

After the agreement from everyone, the elder further explained the risks and then asked everyone else to retreat a hundred meters. He then took out more than a thousand spirit stones and placed them in front of the Barrier Array. After a complex array set-up, he formed a terrifying Explosion Array.

This was just the beginning. The elder repeated the process ten times, spending ten thousand spirit stones to set up the arrays. Ten Explosion Arrays targeting ten different spots would create an unimaginable destructive power. Watching this scene, everyone was stunned, realizing what the elder’s so-called method entailed.

In the next moment, the elder looked at them, smiled faintly, and said, “Remember to reimburse.” He then used another thousand spirit stones to connect the ten array methods, forming a net that surrounded Logan’s Barrier Array. This was the elder’s method. What came next was to wait for the explosion.

Fearing to accidentally injure himself, the elder also retreated by a hundred meters. Then he signaled to Celica Shingo that the Explosion Array would explode in one minute, which would destroy Logan’s Barrier Array. At that time, the hundred thousand spirit stones used in the Barrier Array would also inflate and explode simultaneously,

Celica Shingo sighed bitterly, “It’s unfortunate. I wonder if I can survive this time. It feels like I’ve been through the ups and downs in life. Maybe I don’t need any kind of fortune. Just by remembering this unforgettable experience, I may find the threshold to break into the Saint Seat.”

“I feel the same. All of you are here for the Heavenly Saint Daoist and Beast King’s fortunes. I just came to join the fun, not really caring about the fortune. Anyway, if the two Saint Seats did really leave something behind, only those destined will get them, not us who forcibly grab them.”

“Why are you guys being worrisome? I am the most scared one!” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect glared at everyone. His former dominance has lessened, and he only had less than a hundred years left to live. If he were injured, his lifespan would be halved again.

The sect leaders were about to raise further objections, but seeing that less than half a minute remained before the explosion, the seven Half-step Saint Seats operated their Divine Skills simultaneously. Combining their strength, they formed a protective shield around them. With their lives on the line, no one dared to shirk their responsibilities or take it lightly.

The next moment, the ten Explosion Arrays blew up. The aura of destruction spread instantly, threatening to swallow everything. Even though everyone had retreated a hundred meters, they all felt severely injured. Subsequently, cracks appeared on the ground, and thunderclouds above roiled ominously.

And Logan’s Barrier Array, in an instant, showed cracks, seeming like it would break the next moment. But even in the wake of the dust cloud, the Barrier Array held on and survived.
