Chapter 347: Modified: Chapter 332 Integration Array
"Heaven-Reaching Old Man, how does it feel to kill your own disciples with your own hands?"
Zhan Bai grinned, his sharp teeth making him appear mad, with a ferocious visage.
Zhan Bai’s objective was simple: incite betrayal among the disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, leading them to slaughter one another. The only way to stop them was to kill all these disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion.
Once the Dark Mark is etched, it is irreversible, and they become eternal slaves of the Dark Saint Venerable. This was Zhan Bai’s method.
At this moment, Wang Xu could vaguely sense the life force within the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion continuously vanishing.
As the distant scent of blood drifted over, Wang Xu already caught a whiff of the metallic tang of blood.
War had begun!
"Dark Holy Banquet, assemble!"
Zhan Bai’s voice thundered through the sky, echoing throughout the entire Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos.
Swoosh!
The forty-nine Grand Teleportation Arrays of the Teleportation Hall, which were designated for Array Masters to study and experiment with and were not open to the public, began to shine brightly with beams of dazzling light. From within, figures shrouded in swirling black smoke emerged.
Wang Xu gazed afar, seeing countless black dots converging toward this place, like crazily gathering insects, dense and boundless.
"Disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, prepare for battle."
A majestic voice sounded, and the clouds in the sky parted, orderly, resembling the descent of Divine Soldiers. Radiant and mighty figures appeared in full display.
"So the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion had long prepared for war." The clouds parted one by one, revealing Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples across the sky. Wang Xu glanced around and saw that all disciples from the Seventy-Two Halls were present.
"Wang Xu, return." A soft voice entered Wang Xu’s mind. He was startled and looked to see Qing Zhang standing at the forefront of the crowd, stepping on the Green Light Array, with the Five-foot Cyan Sword on his back.
Wang Xu, joyful, flew toward him.
"Disciple greets the Hall Master!" Wang Xu bowed in salute.
"Good, very good. Join the Grand Array now. The war is about to begin; give it your all and defend the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion." Qing Zhang, unusually, showed a slight smile, no longer cold toward Wang Xu, warming Wang Xu’s heart with joy.
Qing Zhang was a benefactor to Wang Xu, whom he had always respected, but due to the Burning Nether Fire, Qing Zhang was biased against Wang Xu, even sending him to the border wars.
This time, upon re-encounter, Qing Zhang discarded the former reasons for his prejudice.
In Wang Xu, Qing Zhang saw his own reflection and the past of his tragic clan, yet these were not reasons to abandon Wang Xu.
Having thought this through, Qing Zhang had inwardly accepted Wang Xu.
"Wang Xu junior brother... no, Wang Xu senior brother, hurry over!" The speaker, whom Wang Xu recognized, was senior brother Du Mu, with whom he had once had a brief encounter.
But back then, senior brother Du Mu, now, just a thousand years later, had become junior brother Du Mu.
Not only Du Mu, but Luo Shou and many senior brothers whom Wang Xu had visited in the past were all here.
Wang Xu scanned them with a puzzled expression.
"Where is senior brother Red Sword?" Senior brother Red Sword was Wang Xu’s guide into the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, the one who told Wang Xu many things about the pavilion. Especially when visiting the senior brothers, it was mostly because of senior brother Red Sword’s influence that they agreed to teach Wang Xu a move or two.
This debt of gratitude could not be ignored.
"Red Sword, he..." Mentioning senior brother Red Sword, Du Mu’s face turned unnatural, his gaze evasive.
Wang Xu’s heart lurched, a bad premonition arising.
"He is right across." Du Mu’s words made Wang Xu’s pupils constrict sharply, turning directly to look behind Zhan Bai at the continuously assembling Dark Holy Banquet army.
Among them, an old man surrounded by swirling black smoke, yet with a conspicuous red nose, caused Wang Xu’s hand to tremble.
"Senior brother Red Sword!"
Wang Xu could not believe that senior brother Red Sword also fell victim to the Dark Holy Banquet!
Recollecting senior brother Red Sword’s hearty laughter, Wang Xu gradually clenched his fists, his gaze becoming increasingly fierce, as if his eyes could shoot flames toward Zhan Bai.
Boom!!
At this moment, several figures appeared.
"Greetings, Pavilion Master!" Four beings emanating terrifying life force stepped out from void, stepping behind the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable, and bowed respectfully.
These four terrifying and powerful beings were undoubtedly the four Supreme Elders of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, the strongest pillars of the pavilion!
Not only did shadows of the Billion Era Celestial Gods appear by the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable’s side, but two figures, cloaked in black light, exuding the terrifying aura of Billion Era Celestial Gods, also appeared behind Zhan Bai.
Two of the three main thrones of the Dark Holy Banquet, strongest beneath the Saint Venerable.
The atmosphere suddenly became incredibly tense.
Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Dark Holy Banquet, both sides deployed their most powerful forces, war was inevitable.
However, in this war, Heaven-Reaching Pavilion could not receive any support, it would no longer be the entire cosmos facing the Dark Holy Banquet; Heaven-Reaching Pavilion would have to face it alone.
Life and death would be decided between these superpowerful beings; whoever had a superpower fall first, on either side, would lose half the war.
"Old Heaven-Reaching, I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time; for revenge, for the Ancient Luo Cosmos, I will make you pay the price you deserve. The beings of the cosmos are too ugly, they need to be cleansed, the Ancient Luo Cosmos needs to be reborn!"
"Your Heaven-Reaching Pavilion will be my first step forward!"
"Children, go ahead! Fully enjoy the holy banquet that darkness brings! Haha..."
Zhan Bai’s frenzied words were heard, and from behind, a massive dark army from the Dark Holy Banquet, numbering in the millions, surged forward.
"Form the array!"
Suddenly, the leaders of the Seventy-Two Halls all shouted loudly.
Instantly, the Green Light Array beneath Wang Xu’s feet emitted a blinding radiant light.
Buzzing~
The Energy Array was activated, Wang Xu reached out, a strand of green silk thread wrapped around his arm, drawing cosmic energy from within him.
"Oh..."
The forces of the thousands of disciples in the Cyan Yang Hall, through the combination of the Green Light Array, outlined a towering phantom.
The towering phantom took a human form, white hair and robes, with eyes holding infinite depth.
"This... is the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable!"
Wang Xu recognized this humanoid phantom as the white-robed Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable; unlike the current aged appearance of the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable, this white-haired, white-robed person was young, vibrant, exuding a surging life aura.
"Initial Celestial God... Hundred Generations Celestial God... Eternal Generations Celestial God!"
The vitality continued rising, finally halting at the Eternal Generations Celestial God.
"The Integration Array, formed by the combined strength of thousands of Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples into an Eternal Generations Celestial God!"
The Integration Array was very rare; in the outside world, most Integration Arrays were formed by dozens or hundreds, and the combined realm at most could only reach the Initial Celestial God Realm. An Eternal Generations Celestial God’s Integration Array was something Wang Xu was witnessing for the first time.
One phantom after another emerged in the void, the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples of the Seventy-Two Halls converged into seventy-two Eternal Generations Celestial Gods resembling the Heaven-Reaching Ancestors!
"Kill!"
Seventy-two Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerables roared in unison, their battle cries shook the heavens and pierced through the soul.
"Old Heaven-Reaching, your Integration Array is indeed impressive, conceived based on my father’s ’Black Smoke Puppet’ inspiration, worthy of praise!"
Zhan Bai grinned bloodthirstily, licking his lips.
"Now, it’s time for a war between you and me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Saint Venerable aura hidden in Zhan Bai erupted explosively!
"What a terrifying life aura!"
Even with the Eternal Generations Celestial God Array formed, Wang Xu could still feel the terrifying aura radiating from Zhan Bai, causing his heart to tremble; other Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples were shaking like sieves, their eyes filled with fear.
If not for the protection of the Integration Array, weaker Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples might have exploded and died on the spot.
"Zhan Bai, turn back."
Even at the last moment, the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable still did not forget to persuade, but despite his advice, the Saint Venerable aura was unrestrained and fully erupted!
This terrifying Saint Venerable aura also made the Dark Holy Banquet’s army feel fearful, and for a while, black smoke billowed as millions of the black dark army’s smoke gathered together, consolidating into tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, sketching a seething Black Smoke Puppet.
The Black Smoke Puppet, with eight arms, spanned the void and blocked the Saint Venerable aura of the Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable entirely.
"Let’s change the battlefield."
The Heaven-Reaching Saint Venerable said, taking a step forward, and disappeared from sight.
"I’ll join you!" Zhan Bai laughed heartily, also taking a step forward, and both figures vanished, destination unknown.
At this moment, the great war between the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion and the Dark Holy Banquet erupted fully! (To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, feel free to vote for it on Qidian (), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit to read.)
