The abnormal activity in the city alarmed the Fierce Gale World central army's main tent very quickly.
And a subordinate just reported that Ye Yuan suddenly flew out of the city just now and directly captured a Fifth Level Soul Sea commander. This made Shangguan Lingyun's brows furrow even more.
"This sort of situation should be a lot of people breaking through at the same time! Although I don't know why, I think . . . it shouldn't be unrelated to Ye Yuan!" Shangguan Lingyun said with a grave look.
"What? Such a massive commotion, there are probably hundreds or thousands of people breaking through. What capabilities does he have to actually let so many people broke through at the same time?" Deng Sheng exclaimed in shock.
"Heh, you are only aware of one aspect but ignorant of others. Not only is Ye Yuan's Martial Path extremely strong, but his alchemy abilities are also unparalleled! He is Sovereign Star Abyss's accomplished disciple. Furthermore, looking from all kinds of signs, Ye Yuan's alchemy level is probably even above Sovereign Star Abyss's eldest disciple, Shi Haoran!" Shangguan Lingyun said.
"How is that possible? Shi Haoran is an Alchemy King expert!" Deng Sheng said in amazement.
"Huhu, Ye Yuan is just Sea Transformation Realm, and even you aren't his match. What's strange about him surpassing Alchemy Kings in alchemy?" Shangguan Lingyun seemed to already be unfazed by the unusual regarding Ye Yuan's monstrousness.
Deng Sheng was stunned and wanted to find some words to refute. But he could not find any reasonable rebuttal after thinking for a long time too.
Clearly, this sort of explanation did not make sense. But just why could he not find a reason to rebut?
Shangguan Lingyun's aura suddenly became fierce and sharp as he said coldly, "Ye Yuan's growth is too quick. If this continues, he will surely be our Fierce Gale World's mortal malady! Looks like . . . the war has no choice but to escalate now. When will Lord Yunrong reach?"
Deng Sheng's expression was slightly apprehensive, immediately understanding Shangguan Lingyun's meaning.
Once Divine Traversing Realm powerhouses got involved, the war would be much more miserable.
"The preparation over there is already almost done. Lord Yunrong will reach the latest half a month later!" Deng Sheng said.
But Shangguan Lingyun frowned slightly and said, "You go and send a message to Lord Yunrong again. Make him be sure to reach within ten days! Besieging Crimsonlight City was originally a guaranteed success. The only variable now is Ye Yuan!"
Deng Sheng's expression changed, and he bowed and said, "I obey your command!"
. . . . . .
There were people breaking through non-stop in the practicing field. Very soon, the place was overcrowded.
Those who had yet to consume the medicinal pills could only withdraw to one side and quietly await the others to break through.
Martial artists require a certain area when breaking through. Who knew what would happen if they broke through together?
Very soon, a large batch of Sea Transformation Realm experts was born from these martial artists.
And those Sea Transformation Realm martial artists also had a large batch that broke through their original levels.
All in all, these martial artists' strength collectively went up a level.
Chu Shi rubbed his hands and came before Ye Yuan, looking like a girl being bashful as he said, "That . . . Mister Ye, although Old Chu, I, offend you earlier, I've also turned over a new leaf now. Can I . . ."
Looking at those Sea Transformation Realm experts, Crystal Formation Realm experts broke through one after another, Chu Shi was very envious.
It was just that earlier, they, these Soul Sea Realm martial artists, shouted the most ferociously. Chu Shi thought that Ye Yuan was deliberately making things difficult for them, so he did not take out medicinal pills.
Ye Yuan gave him a look and said smilingly, "Can't!"
Chu Shi's expression changed, and he was just about to speak but heard Ye Yuan continue, "Because I'm unable to refine Tier 4 medicinal pills right now. Sorry."
Chu Shi could not help being stunned as he said, "You're saying that . . . these medicinal pills were all refined by you alone?"
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Ye Yuan replied with a question.
Chu Shi's eyes became round balls. He looked at Ye Yuan as he said speechlessly, "There are tens of thousands of medicinal pills. Even for a powerful alchemist, to refine all of it would probably need around a year's time as well, right? Could it be that you already predicted today's situation one year ago?"
Ordinary alchemist's exhaustion when refining pills were tremendous. To be able to refine dozens to a hundred pills a day was already incredible.
But Ye Yuan could refine medicinal pills in large quantities by borrowing the Square Cauldron. The efficiency was ten times, even a hundred times of ordinary alchemists!
So the way Chu Shi saw this, it was absolutely impossible for Ye Yuan to refine so many medicinal pills within a few days.
Furthermore, these medicinal pills were not average with one look. It needed even more time to polish.
Then there was only one explanation. Ye Yuan was a prophet. That was why he started preparing these medicinal pills a year ago.
Ye Yuan just smiled and could not be bothered to explain either. If he explained, they might not believe either.
Except, his disdain in Chu Shi's perspective became all the more unfathomable.
. . . . . .
The process of martial artists breaking through lasted for around an entire day's time.
Virtually everybody all rose a level. The impact of this change on people's senses was immense.
These two days, Su Hu was completely astounded by this 'Mister Ye' who popped out from who knows where.
He finally knew why the alliance sent such a youth over to assist Crimsonlight City.
These medicinal pills that Ye Yuan brought over were virtually equivalent to bringing a powerful martial artist great army here!
This sort of transformation was not just in terms of strength, but it was more on confidence!
Originally, these martial artists' fear towards the Fierce Gale World was already deep to the marrow. But now, in pace with the breakthroughs in cultivation realms, their self-confidence picked up anew.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over the martial artists on the practicing field and said coolly, "Now, do you all have confidence in having a battle with the Fierce Gale World great army outside?"
"Yes!"
"Of course we have!"
"Screw them to death! Take revenge for those dead companions!"
. . . . . .
When people's confidence swelled up sometimes, they would not know which direction it was.
Especially those martial artists who broke through to the Sea Transformation Realm. They all felt that they were almost becoming an invincible state.
Of course, if one person broke through, it was absolutely incapable of giving them such great confidence.
But several tens of thousands of people breaking through at once would let this sort of confidence swell to a terrifying extent.
Ye Yuan raised his hand to motion to everyone to be quiet. The people below instantly quietened down.
Martial power deterrence plus gifting medicinal pills. Ye Yuan had already become these people's spiritual leader unknowingly.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over the audience below the stage and said in a cold voice, "With your current states, wanting to battle the great army outside is still a long way off! Therefore, in order to let your combat strength become even stronger, I've specially set up a grand array. Now . . . enjoy this grand array's special training to your heart's content!"
Ye Yuan suddenly brought out the Profound Water Flag. A colossal light veil enveloped the entire practicing field!
"En? What happened? Where are the others?" Chu Shi frowned and said.
There were only two Soul Sea Realm martial artists left by his side. The ot
her people on the practicing field vanished instantly as if the three of them were isolated the others.
"Ouch! Who hit me?" Chu Shi was kicked brutally by somebody from behind.
Chapter 605 - Leave Your Back to Us
Very soon, wails sounded out everywhere in the grand array.
This was the Tier 4 grand array that Ye Yuan relied on the power of the Profound Water Flag and spent three day's time to set up: the Asura Tri-Pronged Formation!
Hearing wailing sounds coming out from the array formation every now and then, the flesh on Su Hu's face convulsed.
"Mister Ye, this . . . something bad won't happen, right?"
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "The biggest problem with our Endless World's martial artists is that they are too undisciplined and carefree and are totally incapable of joining forces. The greatest use of this array formation is to train their teamwork ability. Wanting to let them comprehend all sorts of grand arrays within a short time, that is impossible. Furthermore, with their temperament, it's also not possible to accomplish that. The function of this Asura Tri-Pronged Formation is to let them form into a unit for every three people, forming exceptionally powerful combat strength within a small radius. As long as they can complete the training, their combat power will have a qualitative increase!"
Su Hu's gaze could not help looking over towards the grand array, only to see those martial artists in a disorderly mess. Where was there any consciousness of teamwork?
In the grand array, they were all fighting their own battles and were beaten by their opponents until they did not have the slightest bit of strength to retaliate.
Seeing this sort of situation, Su Hu could not help shaking his head.
"What Mister Ye said is correct. The reason why the Fierce Gale World martial artists are powerful is that they are of one heart and mind. While the martial artists on our side, each time they encounter a large-scale battle, they would basically throw away their helmets and armor instantly. It's just that . . . I fear that time is too short. They simply can't complete this training!" Su Hu said.
"Relax. Human potential is limitless. According to the intensity of the training, I designed for them, these people will comprehend out some things eventually. But just as you said, our time isn't much. At most ten days, we must break out of the encirclement." Ye Yuan said.
Ye Yuan also did not expect that the one leading the Fierce Gale World great army this time was actually Shangguan Lingyun this person.
His contact with Shangguan Lingyun was not much, but he specially found Xiao Ruyan to understand this person before.
Compared to Zhao Chenggan, this Shangguan Lingyun was more level-headed and intelligent; very hard to deal with.
Furthermore, looking at the situation of both parties' probing that day, this person's strength was likely not beneath his own.
If really matched up, the outcome was really hard to say.
"Alright, time is pressing. I have to make the best use of time to cultivate as well, to strive to break through to the Ninth Level Sea Transformation within ten days!" Ye Yuan said.
Su Hu could not help choking up when he heard that. Breaking through to Ninth Level Sea Transformation within ten days. Such words, only this one in front of him dared to say so, right?
Thinking back, when he broke through from the Eighth Level Sea Transformation to Ninth Level Sea Transformation, he used a full five years!
. . . . . .
"Ouch! Kicked my b.u.t.t again! F*cking hell! Your Father will fight it out with you!"
"Old Zhu, don't be a hindrance! Scram to one side for me! If you continue to give trouble, I'll beat you together!"
"Also you, Old Qian, grow some eyes. That sword of yours earlier almost cut me. If there's a next time, you're dead for sure!"
In the grand array, Chu Shi was like a mad dog; whoever he caught, he would have a go crazily.
Trapped in the grand array together with him, one was called Zhu Changzhi, the other was called Qian Si. They happened to know each other beforehand.
Actually, Zhu Changzhi and Qian Si's strength were evenly matched with Chu Shi. He was also just getting an upper-hand verbally. If they really had internal strife, the one getting beaten could only be him.
Most importantly, those martial artists materialized by the grand array already kicked his b.u.t.t quite a few times. Each time, they kicked him until he face-planted, cutting a sorry figure.
Chu Shi's temper was not good to begin with. At this time, he was even more pent-up with anger.
"Old Chu, don't be foul-mouthed! Although these people are formed by the grand array, each of their strength is very formidable. We're simply not their match! If this continues, we'll be played to death!" Zhu Changzhi said.
"Bah! Just an array formation that brat set up wants to play Your Father to death? Your Father doesn't believe this shit! Those few people are also roughly the same as our strength. It's just that their numbers are a little more than us. I don't believe that I can't bring them down!" Chu Shi refused to give in.
Very clearly, he was very displeased with this grand array Ye Yuan set up.
Of course, what he was most displeased with was that these illusionary martial artists kept on chasing his b.u.t.t and kicking.
Too humiliating!
On the first day, Chu Shi was the same as everyone trapped within the array formation, being kicked leg after leg by those illusionary martial artists; life was very miserable.
But this grand array could not keep operating all the way. Whenever their essence energy were roughly depleted, those martial artists would automatically disappear for some time.
After waiting for their essence energy to recover to a certain extent, those martial artists would automatically appear again.
The second day passed very quickly. The martial artists in the array formations were still exhausted from dealing with it and could not find a way to defeat those illusionary martial artists at all.
But they discovered one thing. The attacks of those martial artists on the second day were much more ferocious compared to the first day. Many martial artists all suffered differing degrees of injuries.
The third day, Liu Hong's voice suddenly transmitted into the grand array, saying, "Brother Ye said that the power of the grand array will get stronger day by day. If you guys are still fighting by your own separate battles today . . . there will be deaths!"
Finished talking, the voice cut off abruptly.
Everybody all shuddered. 'There will be deaths,' these four words were like a heavy hammer smashing onto their c.h.e.s.t, making them feel out of breath.
Chu Shi's expression was very ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, "I feel like that boy isn't scaring us. If we continue like this, there might really be people dying!"
Zhu Changzhi and Qian Si both felt that way strongly too and nodded their heads.
"Old Zhu, Old Qin, I, this person, hate to work together with others the most. But at this time, it's not up to us either!" Chu Shi said.
"Heh, you think that Your Father is willing to cooperate with trash like you? But for the sake of living, we might have to cooperate for once," Zhu Changzhi said.
"I have no objections." Qian Si's character was clearly very unsociable and was also unwilling to cooperate with others.
Indeed, when the grand array activated, everyone's pressure increased suddenly. Those illusionary martial artists' offensive power suddenly rose a level.
Even though there was Liu Hong's warning, to really want to achieve good teamwork, how could it be that easy?
"Old Zhu, careful behind!"
"Old Qian, flank!"
"F*ck! You guys revealed my back to the outside!" Chu Shi suddenly flew out with a miserable cry.
"Be careful!"
Qian Si flew with his sword, resolving that illusionary martial artist's lethal blow.
Chu Shi sweated profusely, struggling up with a grunt to continue fighting.
"Old Qian, I owe you a favor!" Chu Shi
yelled.
"You die, we won't survive either!" Qian Si was precise and to the point.
"These illusionary martial artists' cooperation is too exquisite. This is not the way to go on. Our teamwork must be stronger than theirs to be able to beat them!" Chu Shi said.
"Heh heh, looks like you aren't too dumb. Finally made out some trick to it. I, Zhu Changzhi, don't believe that the three of us living people can't even compare to a couple of illusionary martial artists! Old Chu, Old Qian, starting from now, my back will be left to you guys!' Zhu Changzhi said.
Chapter 606 - Chu Shi Trio
Ye Yuan was not joking with them.
On the third day, the casualties neared three thousand people!
This number was rather high!
And this figure, Liu Hong did not hide it either, telling everybody through the grand array.
The array formation already ceased operating at this time. Chu Shi three people's expressions were never-before solemn.
"According to what that brat says, the difficulty of the fourth day will be greater than today! Barring no accidents, tomorrow's casualties will probably be even higher!" Chu Shi said gravely.
Zhu Changzhi said in agreement, "That's inevitable! This boy is truly detestable. We haven't died at the hands of the Fierce Gale World martial artists yet, but are actually going to die in his hands first! If I can go out of this grand array, I'll definitely put him on the spot!"
Chu Shi said with a cold smile, "Keep bragging, you! That boy can set up such a formidable Tier 4 grand array with Sea Transformation Realm cultivation. Can you be his match? Could it be that you forgot how that commander died?"
When Zhu Changzhi heard that, he could not help shuddering.
Even if they did not borrow the power of the grand array, they could not possibly be Ye Yuan's match either.
That Fierce Gale World commander simply did not have leeway to resist at all in Ye Yuan's hands.
Their strength was at best the same as that commander too. If they really fought, they were probably still not that commander's match.
