As he said, He Jun flipped over his hand. His hand already had an additional bunch of multi-colored small flags in it.
He took out a yellow small flag and his figure moved, arriving not far from the grand array.
Only to see him casually wave his hand. Vast quantities of heaven & earth essence energy released from the small flag and sunk into the Yin-Yang Turbid Heaven Grand Array!
Chapter 459

He Jun’s actions did not cause a huge uproar like Liao Wenguang. But, it instantly boosted the confidence of the Purple Mansion Sect disciples considerably like a cardiac tonic.
He Jun was the Southern Domain’s only two Tier 4 Array Master!
Before today, Zhou Yun’s famous name resounded through the Southern Domain, because he was the only Tier 4 Array Master!
But, Zhou Yun was just an Initial-Rank Tier 4 Array Master.
While He Jun was a Middle-Rank Tier 4 Array Master!
If even He Jun could not crack this grand array before them, then nobody could crack this formation in the Southern Domain!
The Purple Mansion Sect disciples all held their breaths, staring at He Jun’s actions fixedly, fearful of making any bit of noise and disturbing him cracking the formation.
When the essence energy released by He Jun through the yellow tiny flag touched the grand array, it was the peaceful surface of a quiet lake having a rock tossed into it, immediately stirring up waves of ripples.
The grand array suddenly exploded with light, seemingly wanting to shake off this strand of essence energy.
He Jun had a cold smile at the corner of his mouth as he said, “The Prismatic Illusionary Moon Flags are a 128 restrictions spirit artifact and also my lifeblood spirit artifact. Even a High-Rank Tier 4 Array Master can’t possibly blast it off either! Be good. It will all be over very soon.”
He Jun continuously released essence energy, tightly entangling the grand array.
After a moment, He Jun’s gaze turned intent, and he unleashed essence energy to shoot the yellow tiny flag out.
“Clank!”
A crisp sound came over. The yellow tiny flag inserted deep into a boulder not far away.
The grand array seemed to have suffered damage. The light actually dimmed greatly in an instant!
“Hahaha! Elder He is awesome!”
“Elder He is indeed worthy of being a Tier 4 Array Master! Cracking this grand array in simply reaching out a hand to grab it!”
“This Tranquil Cloud Sect has been too cocky in front of us! Did you see that stone plaque? This time, they finally got their faces smacked by Elder He, right? Wait until Elder He cracks the grand array. I’ll definitely smash that stone plaque into pieces!”
When the Purple Mansion Sect disciples saw the grand array tottering, each and every one of them was unbelievably eager.
Especially the disciples who came here last time. They were indeed suppressed too heavily these few days.
The Purple Mansion Sect that swept away all resistance actually did not even dare to breathe loudly in front of the weakest Tranquil Cloud Sect. This was too humiliating!
Now, seeing that the grand array had hopes of being cracked by He Jun, they all had an impulse to vent out their oppression.
But He Jun himself was very composed. Only to see him take out another green tiny flag, casting it in the same manner, and nailing it onto a huge tree.
This time, the grand array’s light dimmed some more.
The Purple Mansion Sect disciples were even more excited. Each one of them was like on stimulants.
Only to see each and every one of them rub their fists and wipe their palms, all wishing to charge inside the Tranquil Cloud Sect at the first moment!
Even Liao Wenguang had glittering eyes at this time and a feeling of eagerness to have a go.
“Old He indeed has some skills. If I listened to him earlier, I wouldn’t have lost so much face too.” Liao Wenguang was regretting secretly.
While at this time, the expressions of the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples in the center of the array were not too good.
The array formation that they were in was adjoined into one with the grand array and could deeply sense that the grand array was currently being weakened. All of them were very worried.
“J-Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, is . . . is this alright? Th-The grand array seems to have weakened again!”
“Yeah, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye. Don’t be miserly with our essence energy! Even if we are sucked dry, that’s fine too. As long as the grand array can be protected!”
“Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, we don’t fear death! If you need essence energy, feel free to use. My brows won’t furrow at all!”
The Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were all trying to get a word in with Ye Yuan. Each and every one of their eyes looked death calmly in the face. All had the preparation to sacrifice their lives for the sect.
Ye Yuan turned around and said with a faint smile, “Seniors and juniors, relax. When I need your essence energy, this Ye won’t hold back. But . . . it’s not to the point of the end of our ropes. Seniors and juniors don’t need to lose all hope like so either. Everything is within grasp.”
The Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples exchanged glances, all seeing the excitement in the other person’s eyes.
Not that they did not believe Ye Yuan, but because the Purple Mansion Sect’s strength was really too strong!
Furthermore, they could clearly sense that the array formation was being weakened. That was why they were so anxious.
But, Ye Yuan’s one sentence put all of their minds at ease.
The present Ye Yuan had this capability.
. . . . . .
He Jun had a total of seven little flags in his hands. They were respectively seven types of colors.
By the time the final blue flag stuck into place, the brilliance given off by the grand array was abated to the extreme all at once; like a person receiving heavy wounds.
But, just seriously injured. The grand array did not collapse with a loud crash.
Moreover, the grand array seemed to have spirituality. The radiance was bright at times, and dark at times. It seemed to be struggling even more intensely compared to before.
Those seven little flags actually showed signs of loosening.
He Jun did not dare to slight it. Pushing with both palms, seven streaks of essence energy strands flowed out from his palm, instantly connecting onto those seven little flags.
The seven little flags stabilized very quickly.
Seeing that Liao Wenguang was still in a daze, He Jun yelled out loudly, “What are you stoning there for? Quickly attack the grand array!”
Liao Wenguang was shocked awake abruptly. Essence energy erupted in an instant.
This time, Liao Wenguang maneuvered practically all the essence energy that could be mobilized in his entire body, pouring all of it into the Blood Drinking Saber.
Blood Drinking Saber immediately emitted an extremely blinding red glow. An utterly horrifying aura undulated out.
“Break for me!”
Liao Wenguang swung his long saber. A terrifying attack surged forward towards the grand array!
“Rumble!”
Rock fragments flew all around. A large stretch of land outside the gates was practically flattened!
The power of this one attack was too strong!
“Elder Liao is almighty!”
“Elder Liao is awesome!
“Kill! Kill all of the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s people! Take revenge for Elder Ma Yi!”
The Purple Mansion Sect disciples all charged over towards the gates, wanting to charge inside the Tranquil Cloud Sect.
However, the expressions on He Jun and Liao Wenguang, the two of their faces, did not become eager. It turned grave instead.
Liao Wenguang’s attack earlier did not receive any obstruction. It seemed to directly pass through the grand array!
This .
. . what was doing on here?
It was still He Jun who reacted to it first. His expression unwittingly changed vividly, howling at Liao Wenguang, “Not good! Baited! Quickly run!”
Liao Wenguang was stunned, then his expression immediately changed dramatically too.
Because at this time, the grand array suddenly exploded with rays of light!
Those dazzling rays of light was even more intense than before. How was there any hint of being restrained?
Hundreds of light streams released from within the grand array, speeding towards He Jun and Liao Wenguang rapidly!
Liao Wenguang was all too clear regarding the prowess of this flowing light. He nearly died under these light streams just now!
There were only several streams of flowing light earlier, but now, there were hundreds!
Because of cracking the formation, plus the effects of He Jun’s Prismatic Illusionary Moon Flags, the two people’s distance from the grand array was already very close.
And Ye Yuan was waiting for this moment!
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Violent explosion sounds sounded in front of the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s gates. Those hundreds of light streams seemed like rolling thunder cascading down from the horizon, blasting what was in front of the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s gates beyond recognition.
After the explosions, before the Tranquil Cloud Sect gates, it was as still as death . . .
Chapter 460

“What did you say?! Tell me again one more time!”
Heavenly Sky Sect’s great hall. When He Mingde heard the Sea Transformation Realm Elder Zhu Mingyu’s report, he stood up with a start, a face full of disbelief.
Zhu Mingyu was covered in wounds all over his body, looking very alarming.
But, his injuries had clearly already been through treatment and was not a big deal.
Seeing He Mingde question, Zhu Mingyu said through sobs, “L-Lord Sect Master! Grand Elder He and Elder Liao were killed on the spot by the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s sect protecting grand array! The 1500 disciples this trip, the casualties exceed half! Just the Sea Transformation Realm elders, close to as many as 80 people were lost!”
Zhu Mingyu still had fear in his eyes. He was already scared out of his wits by the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s sect protecting grand array.
First was personally witnessing the First Level Soul Sea Realm Ma Yi die before his eyes. Then, he witnessed with his own eyes the Fourth Level Soul Sea Realm He Jun and Liao Wenguang dying before him. This image would probably never be erased from his mind in this lifetime.
After He Jun and Liao Wenguang died, he became the person with the highest strength in that team.
If not for coming to deliver the news to He Mingde, he wished that he could immediately find a place to enter terminal seclusion and not come out even if he was beaten to death.
Even now, his voice was still trembling unceasingly when speaking.
Since the realm passageway was linked up, martial artists below the Soul Sea Realm could enter the Endless World.
These few months’ time, there were already many Sea Transformation Realm and Crystal Formation Realm martial artists that entered the Endless World. They were all under He Mingde’s command.
Otherwise, with the Purple Mansion Sect’s might alone, they had no way of attaining such horrifying strength either.
With these reinforcements, the Purple Mansion Sect’s strength had long surpassed the Heavenly Sky Sect. That was why they could take down the entire Southern Domain without shedding a drop of blood.
Yet, with each word that Zhu Mingyu said, He Mingde’s heart would drip a drop of blood.
By the time Zhu Mingyu finished talking, He Mingde felt like the blood in his heart were almost drained dry already. He plopped his bottom back onto his seat, his face in a complete daze.
The losses from the attack on the Tranquil Cloud Sect this time was too grievous!
The Tranquil Cloud Sect’s accident still made He Mingde attach importance to it. That was why attacking the Tranquil Cloud Sect this time, he practically sent nearly 40% of the Purple Mansion Sect’s martial artists!
This trip, just the Sea Transformation Realm martial artists had over a hundred people!
Yet, of these hundred over people, only fifty to sixty came back. Among them, many were laden with heavy injuries. They most likely would not have much endeavors in the future either.
According to Zhu Mingyu’s description, He Jun and Liao Wenguang were slain on the spot by the Tranquil Cloud Sect’s sect protecting grand array.
While the other disciples thought that the grand array was broken and charged inside the grand array’s range of fire crazily. In the end . . .
Because Zhu Mingyu had to supervise, his actions were a step slow and just happened to rush to the peripherals of the sect protecting grand array, saving his life instead.
He Mingde never would have dreamt that the Purple Mansion Sect would actually suffer such a calamitous defeat in the Southern Domain!
Two Middle-Stage Soul Sea Realm experts. This was absolutely a top beam like existence to the Purple Mansion Sect. Now, they actually perished together!
“Puhwark!”
He Mingde only felt sweetness in his throat, spewing out a mouthful of blood.
Even with He Mingde’s forbearance and wisdom, he also could not quite accept such a defeat at this time.
“Lord Sect Master!”
“Lord Sect Master!”
. . . . . .
The Purple Mansion Sect’s upper echelons were also in overwhelming shock earlier. Seeing He Mingde spew blood at this time, they could not help turning pale in alarm.
He Mingde waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. He opened his mouth and said to Zhu Mingyu, “Mingyu, you tell me the situation at that time. Don’t miss out anything at all!”
Zhu Mingyu was seriously unwilling to recall the situation back then. But, the sect master raised it up. He had no choice but to force himself to look back upon it either.
Right away, Zhu Mingyu described the situation back then in detail.
Although they were not involved personally, when they heard Zhu Mingyu’s narrative, the Purple Mansion Sect’s upper echelons still felt a cold blast of wind hit them from behind.
Zhu Mingyu said that he had yet to approach the grand array and he already ended up looking like this. Those Purple Mansion Sect disciples who charged inside the grand array’s attack range definitely died very miserably.
He Mingde’s brows virtually knitted until they became one. He asked Zhu Mingyu, “He Jun said back then that even if I went, I can’t crack the grand array either?”
Zhu Mingyu nodded and said, “Yes. Elder He said that at that time. Furthermore . . .”
Seeing Zhu Mingyu wanting to speak but holding back, He Mingde said unhappily, “Whatever you have, say it!”
“Yes! Disciple feels that . . . feels that even if sect master went to crack the formation personally, you’d most likely . . .”
Zhu Mingyu still did not say finish the words at the back. But everyone understood his meaning and could not help drawing a cold breath.
His meaning was that even if He Mingde personally went to crack the formation, he might not be able to retreat unscathed too!
Looking from this, how strong was this grand array?
He Mingde did not reveal a surprised expression. From Zhu Mingyu’s account just now, he already knew this point.
The power of this grand array simply surpassed their imaginations!
He Mingde muttered under his breath, “Just what happened to the Tranquil Cloud Sect? How could such a powerful existence suddenly pop out? Could it be that the Tranquil Cloud Sect has somebody who acquired the Grand Yan True Sect’s inheritance back then?”
At this time, a young profile stood up from the crowd.
If Ye Yuan was here, he would recognize that this person was precisely the Lin Chao who h
e had not seen for a long time!
Several months of not meeting, the present Lin Chao actually already cultivated to Peak Ninth Level Sea Transformation Realm!
He followed the Lan Family Tribe into the Central Capital back then. But at this time, he already returned to the Purple Mansion Sect.
And those Fierce Gale World martial artists were precisely brought back by him.
“Lord Sect Master, disciple has a bold conjecture. It’s just I don’t know if it’s right or not.” Lin Chao had a profound look in his gaze.
He Mingde’s eyes lit up when he heard this and said, “So, it’s Lin Chao. Is it possible that you know who this person controlling the grand array is?”
Lin Chao shook his head and said, “Lin Chao dare not confirm. But, to say the person with the greatest possibility, nobody else is worthy except him!”
He Mingde asked puzzledly, “Oh? Who?”
“Ye Yuan!” Lin Chao said.
He Mingde’s brows furrowed slightly. Clearly, he had not heard of this name before.
Lin Chao did not waste his breath and recounted some of the events that happened within the mystic realm, greatly astonishing He Mingde and the other upper echelons.
“You’re saying that this Tranquil Cloud Sect disciple Ye Yuan entered Tier 4 and Tier 5 grand arrays like it were flat ground? Moreover, he even relied on a set of Tier 3 array formation to battle four Sea Transformation Realms with Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation?”
He Mingde felt that Lin Chao’s words were like a joke. But, he was deeply aware that it was impossible for Lin Chao to make a joke about this sort of thing.
After Lin Chao completed the mission that the sect assigned, they started the grand plan of unifying the Southern Domain after coming back and simply did not have the time to report this matter to He Mingde.
