Chapter 1327 - 1293: Annihilation Array
"Boom!"
A thunderous explosion echoed from the mountains on the outskirts of Tokyo, of the He Clan.
Many people attracted by the anomaly in the mountains were startled by the sound, as if experiencing an earthquake.
As everyone thought it was just a coincidence, a beam of red light suddenly rose from the mountain top, shooting straight into the sky.
Then everyone witnessed a sight that would be unforgettable for life.
The clouds around the area dispersed as the red light passed.
At the far end of the sky, an arcane magic circle symbol, with the red light at its center, slowly descended from the heavens.
As the array descended, the mountains below began to experience a gale.
Those ordinary people who came upon hearing the news had never seen such a spectacle before.
At this moment, any sensible person understood that the event unfolding on the mountain was beyond their involvement.
Those wishing to preserve their lives watched the wind with caution, moving carefully away along the path they came by.
Only those who were either fearless or overly curious had their desires for adventure piqued, trudging toward the mountain.
However, what none of these people noticed was:
A figure was rushing toward the mountain top at a speed barely discernible to the naked eye:
"This is the Annihilation Array composed of tens of thousands of living flesh."
"All living beings within the array will be reduced to ashes once the array activates."
"Constructing such a soul-destroying array on the Nine Nether Continent is forbidden."
The Jade Qilin, perched on Lin Yi’s shoulder, explained the array above that almost enveloped the entire mountain range, while clarifying:
"But this Annihilation Array seems to have been hastily constructed, using mortal bodies as a medium."
"Therefore, its power will be greatly diminished."
"However, it’s more than enough to deal with Xiao Jie and the others."
Listening to the Jade Qilin’s introduction, Lin Yi’s heart was already ablaze with fury:
"This certainly is something only that madman could pull off as a masterpiece!"
"Killing tens of thousands to construct an array in just a few days, does he have any humanity!"
But at that moment, the Jade Qilin spoke in defense of Samson:
"You really misunderstood him on this point."
"The flesh used for the array was not recently formed, but had existed a long time ago."
"Yet those souls seemed to be trapped by something in this mountain, unable to leave."
"This gave the mad Samson the chance to construct such a forbidden curse."
Lin Yi heard this and frowned:
"Existed a long time ago?"
Looking at the lush greenery of the mountain forest, Lin Yi couldn’t help but wonder:
’What happened here in the past that led to the deaths of so many?’
But the Jade Qilin’s next words shook Lin Yi greatly:
"Those souls appeared to have been tortured to death, harboring deep resentment."
"By the way, the aura of these souls seems to be from your place, not the He Clan."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi immediately linked it to something, his pupils contracted:
"What did you say?!"
Lin Yi glared angrily at the Jade Qilin:
"Are you sure the aura of these souls comes from my Hua Country?"
Despite Lin Yi’s glaring, in the domain of aura expertise, the Jade Qilin remained composed, saying:
"The soul aura of people from this country is quite Yin, while the soul aura from your country is more Yang."
"These two distinct auras, there’s no way I could be mistaken."
Hearing this, Lin Yi’s mind instinctively recalled the unbearable history with the He Clan during the early establishment of Hua Country.
Could it be that those oppressed souls were all people of Hua Country persecuted by the He Clan during that time?
Upon realizing this, Lin Yi’s chest was immediately filled with rage:
"Damn him!"
Killing people of Hua Country and using despicable means to suppress them, preventing reincarnation for nearly a century.
Now, they’re being used for Samson’s insane sacrificial rites, ultimately used against their own people.
In an instant.
Originally planning to calm things down and leave after recovering Dongfang Jing’s spirit, Lin Yi immediately changed his mind.
Lin Yi could see the particularly sacred temple atop the mountain from afar.
No need to guess.
It was apparent that the temple was built, as the Jade Qilin mentioned, to suppress the tens of thousands of wronged souls from Hua Country.
Thinking of national hatred, Lin Yi rushed directly to the platform before the temple, toward the monk confronting Zhang Xinying.
Whether it was his threatening actions toward Zhang Xinying;
Or the evil aura emanating from him;
Or his accomplice robe supporting wrongdoing;
Upon seeing the monk Kongjian, Lin Yi immediately decided:
"Die!"
Lin Yi raised his hand, and green energy surged forth.
Countless tendrils burst from the ground, instantly enveloping the monk.
Samson, in the midst of activating the grand array, was immediately shocked, turning his head to look toward the distant mountain woods:
"Who’s there!"
This sudden turn of events startled Ouyang Hao and others unexpectedly.
Zhang Xinying also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, looking toward the distance.
Xiao He, Shen Yanhua, and others were visibly overjoyed, filled with excitement:
"Boss Feng is here, damn!"
"Great!"
"If Boss Feng didn’t arrive soon, I would have stepped in."
"This guy is really too abnormal, even Sister Feng can’t handle him."
"Finally, it’s about to end."
Dressed in casual attire, Lin Yi suddenly appeared before everyone’s sight in the night sky, a fireball flying from his hand, landing at the base of the tendrils.
Then Lin Yi made a fist gesture.
The tendrils surrounding Samson tightened abruptly.
At the same time, the fireball immediately ignited the tendrils, forming a flame shooting into the sky.
"Samson!"
Seeing him face to face for an instant, Lin Yi instantly recognized Samson hidden beneath the monk’s facade:
"We meet again."
However, Lin Yi didn’t intend to give Samson a chance to speak.
The tendrils, like a cage, tightly held Samson’s body, leaving him unable to move an inch.
The fierce flame directly engulfed Samson.
At this moment, Lin Yi addressed Zhang Xinying and others:
"Take everyone down the mountain!"
His tone was filled with undeniable resolve and coldness, baffling everyone with Lin Yi’s sudden attitude.
However, Zhang Xinying didn’t question his reasoning, only leaving behind a sentence:
"Be careful."
Then she turned to the bewildered Ouyang Hao and others, saying:
"Let’s go."
Then she led the way down the mountain.
Before Lin Yi arrived, right after Zhang Xinying exposed her Celestial identity.
Samson revealed his final trump card to Zhang Xinying, the Annihilation Array beneath the temple.
This move indeed exceeded Zhang Xinying’s expectations.
If she had possessed the power from her previous life, this array would have been insignificant to her.
However, in this life, she clearly hadn’t reached the heights of her previous one.
While Zhang Xinying was pinned and couldn’t move, Lin Yi’s arrival conveniently neutralized that threatening force.
As Zhang Xinying and others moved down the mountain, Lin Yi suddenly sprouted wings, hovering in mid-air.
From the burning flame came Samson’s cold laughter:
"That girl is actually the reincarnation of the Celestial Saint Mother, seems your identity isn’t simple either."
"But even if you’re the reincarnation of the Celestial Saint Master, so what?"
"You think this will kill me? How naive! Hahahaha~"
But as Lin Yi took out an item, Samson’s laughter stopped abruptly:
"What is that?"
Lin Yi looked at the [Celestial Fury Lv7 Divine Artifact] in his hand, the equipment that followed him from Rafam World to the real world, and then spoke to the burning flame:
"Making you an Artifact Spirit isn’t exactly wasting you."
Samson, hearing this, was immediately filled with horror:
"What!"
