Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6339: The Array Appears



It was evident that the altar not only sealed divine power but also possibly contained the power of gods and demons.

Once this power was obtained, not just Jian Wushuang, but even if Xiang Yang and Jiang Shang combined their strength, they wouldn't be able to fully consume it.

Even the cultivators in the city, who had significantly increased their soul strength by killing ghost cultivators, could reach the level of shattering the void if they acquired this power of gods and demons.

Even though space had become more solid than before, it could still be shattered with the power of gods and demons.

However, Jian Wushuang was too lazy to explain these things to the others.

Whether they understood it or not depended on themselves.

He didn't care if they stayed or left, but if anyone dared to cause trouble, he wouldn't hesitate to act.

Zhen Xian and Fu Qing coldly snorted but had no intention of leaving. Although they didn't fully understand the situation, they also chose to search for the altar.

At that moment, in the southern part of the city, after a two-story pavilion was overturned, a wave of death energy surged out.

Simultaneously, a similar event occurred in the southwest.

Jian Wushuang's thought power instantly gathered.

By focusing on the two locations, he quickly noticed something unusual.

"There's actually a hidden formation here!" Jian Wushuang's eyebrows twitched, and he immediately transmitted his thoughts, "Xiang Yang, take Jiang Shang and head to the city wall quickly!"

Both Xiang Yang and Jiang Shang were only cultivators at the Golden Core stage. If they encountered danger, they could easily be killed in an instant. The city wasn't lacking in Golden Core cultivators, so it would be safer for them to head to the city wall.

Without hesitation, Xiang Yang and Jiang Shang flew directly towards the city wall. Meanwhile, cellars emitting death energy continued to appear throughout the city.

That death energy quickly spread across the entire county city.

"A death energy formation, ghost cultivators, and the altar!"

Jian Wushuang began to see through the intentions of the mastermind behind this.

It wasn't just about resurrecting the imperial concubine; it seemed more like a case of possession by borrowing a corpse to return to life!

As for the imperial concubine, she was merely an appetizer.

"One hundred and eight cellars, forming the foundation of this grand formation. The person who set this up is no ordinary figure!" Jian Wushuang calmly remarked.

He wasn't afraid of the opponent's methods; what he feared was the opponent hiding and not coming out.

Now that the formation had appeared, it wouldn't be long before the opponent showed themselves.

The exposure of the formation provided Jian Wushuang with an opportunity.

To Jian Wushuang, formations weren't overly complicated. The core of this formation wasn't just the one hundred and eight cellars, but rather the death energy.

That was the key to driving the formation.

As long as he suppressed the death energy, he could stop the formation from operating, and at that point, the opponent would surely emerge to confront him.

However, Jian Wushuang wasn't planning to do that. He was more interested in seeing what the opponent was up to.

Who was this formation meant to bring back to life through possession?

So, he didn't rush to take action.

But the other cultivators panicked, starting to suppress the death energy from the cellars.

In groups of three or five, they formed simple battle formations to suppress the cellars. Unfortunately, there weren't enough people, and they could only suppress a dozen or so cellars at most.

This merely slowed down the formation's operation but couldn't stop it.

Neither Zhen Xian nor Fu Qing took action to suppress the formation; they remained silent. Everyone wanted to wait.

Jian Wushuang returned to the city wall, observing the scene within the city, his thought power constantly monitoring the cultivators throughout the city.

"Wushuang, this formation seems strange, especially that death energy. Why do I feel like it's similar to when we first entered this place?" Xiang Yang gazed at the surging death energy, revealing a puzzled expression.

The death energy was indeed similar to the one that erupted when they first entered, but back then, it was far more intense than what was present here.

The most important difference was that the death energy back then contained a special aura.

It was somewhat different from the death energy here.

"It's somewhat similar, but it's not a big deal!" Jian Wushuang explained to Xiang Yang, "Do you remember those demons we encountered before entering this place? If I'm not mistaken, those demons were tricked and slaughtered in life, and many of them were killed, which is why so much death energy gathered!"

"Ambushed and killed? But those creatures included Universe Gods at the Six-Star level!" Xiang Yang exclaimed in shock, momentarily forgetting to communicate through thought transmission.

Yang Xiao and the others were stunned when they heard the term "Universe God."

The Qianzu Saintess hadn't followed Miao Renfeng's Barbarian Lands tribe, believing that sticking with Jian Wushuang might reveal more useful information.

However, what she heard now left her completely baffled.

Universe Gods?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

What kind of existence was that?

These people might have lived their entire lives without even hearing of the universe, let alone understanding the immense power of a Universe God.

Jian Wushuang ignored their confusion and calmly explained, "The ghosts here can devour and evolve, so it's likely the same principle applies to those creatures as well."

"Ah, that makes sense. But even so, the one who ambushed and killed those creatures must have been a Universe God. Otherwise, how could they have subdued such beings?" Xiang Yang still seemed worried.

Although he hadn't yet regained much of his strength, he was concerned about the future.

If there truly were incomparably powerful Universe Gods in this world, he wouldn't stand a

chance.

At his peak, he had only reached the Ninth Tribulation as a Universe Master.

His power as a Demigod had already reached its limit.

As for Universe Gods above Six-Star level, he didn't even dare to imagine confronting such

beings.

"There's no need to overthink. If this world really is filled with powerful Universe Gods, it wouldn't make much difference whether you leave or stay," Jian Wushuang reassured him. Indeed, Xiang Yang was merely a Ninth Tribulation Universe Master. If this world contained super-powerful Universe Gods, his cultivation here would be no different from training in the outside world.

Besides, the Xiang family had already perished, and leaving might only lead to his enemies pursuing him for revenge.

If there were better opportunities here, staying and cultivating in this world could be a more

viable option.

Just like Xing Luo, who, despite having access to a larger world, chose to return here. Likely due to a certain legacy that couldn't be further enhanced in the outside world, it was better to return and continue strengthening himself in this realm.

Xiang Yang might as well cling to this opportunity; staying here and becoming a son-in-law might be a hundred times better than leaving.

Of course, he didn't voice this thought.

After chatting with Xiang Yang for a while, Jian Wushuang continued to observe Mangshan

County.

Unlike Xiang Yang, Jian Wushuang's true self was incredibly powerful, already at the peak of the Nine-Star Universe God level.

Once he regained his strength, not only this world but even the Realm God Continent couldn't

hold him back.

The most crucial point was that entering this world seemed to be part of someone's plan.

The Prophet! This mighty figure could erase some people's memories, but not his.

The Prophet had helped him several times, and this time, entering this place was also

connected to that person.

For example, the strong figure who destroyed the Eastern True Immortal Realm was also known as the Prophet, and Jian Wushuang had even dreamed of the Prophet.

Now that he had obtained the Nine Prison Pagoda, he was even more certain that entering this

world was no mere coincidence.

The Prophet must have been scheming something.

The Crimson Eye Realm was just the first challenge. What he needed to do was find a way to

gain benefits that would strengthen his true self.

At the very least, the Nine Prison Pagoda was no ordinary treasure; it was far more than it

seemed.
