This was also an inherent right to the problem. Everyone was already aware of it.
Regarding Ye Yuan's decision, Ao Qian trio naturally did not dare have any dissent. But looking at the Dao Spirit Fruit, the four of them were still incomparably hankered after it.
"M-Milord, do we really not want that Dao Spirit Fruit?" Jiang Taicang could not resist asking.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said with a smile that was not a smile, "Are you guys very moved? All feel that I'm making a big fuss over nothing, is that so?"
Jiang Taicang's expression was ugly, and he said with an obsequious smile, "M-Milord, Old Jiang doesn't mean that."
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "If any of you wish to join in, I won't stop you either. After all, this is the chance to become a deity. If I bar the way, I might appear to be too unreasonable."
Jiang Taicang hurriedly waved his hands the moment he heard and said, "No, no, no, Milord, I … I was just saying. You … You just take it as me, Old Jiang, letting out a fart."
Ao Qian could not watch on anymore and spoke up, "Milord, Taicang he …"
Ye Yuan used a hand gesture to stop Ao Qian and said coolly, "There is little common ground for understanding between people of differing Daos! If any one among you guys want to contend for that chance to become a Deity, you can tell me. I absolutely won't stop it and can even undo the soul contract! But … our fate will come to an end here!"
Ye Yuan's words made the four people palpitate with fear. His Excellency normally had a kind and pleasant countenance and rarely restrained them. But this time, he seemed to have really become angry.
Done talking, Ye Yuan minded his own business and went to one side, and shut his eyes to rest his mind,
The four people exchanged glances, their expressions all incomparably ugly.
Over there, Ding Zhanguo was already feeling out the weak area of the grand array. Everyone was looking at him anxiously.
While Ao Qian the four of them were akin to ants on a hot pan.
The time they followed Ye Yuan was not long, but they received tremendous grace from Ye Yuan. They were long dead set on Ye Yuan already. It was just that this time, it concerned becoming a deity. They were really unable to remain composed, that was why they would question Ye Yuan's decision.
"Heh heh, he's already giving you guys the cold-shoulder, you all are still chasing after him? Ji brat already said that he's willing to undo your soul contracts. This is a chance to achieve Deity Realm, do you all want to give up?" At this time, Yue Xinping suddenly appeared and said with a laugh.
Starting from Ye Yuan saying to give up on the Dao Spirit Fruit, he had been paying attention to the situation on this side.
Seeing that Ye Yuan actually fell out with his subordinates, Yue Xinping was abnormally excited.
He saw that Ao Qian and the rest could not make the decision. Hence, he wanted to incite them to betray Ye Yuan. This way, Ye Yuan being all by himself would be much easier to deal with.
Those wanting to kill Ye Yuan here were not one or two people. Without these Void Mystic Realm powerhouses, he would not be far from death as well.
It was fine if he did not show up, but with this shooting off his mouth, Jiang Taicang immediately exploded.
He pointed at Yue Xinping's nose and cursed, "What the hell has it got to do with you here? What has it got to do with you if your father can't become a deity? Your father just doesn't want to become a deity, so what? Worrying over people eating salty carrots, you want to sow discord, is it? When your Grandpa Jiang is playing this trick, you were still in your mother's tummy! Get lost for your father; otherwise, I'll beat you until you look all over the floor for your teeth!"
Done talking, he did not bother with the dumbfounded and mouth gaping Yue Xinping either, and directly scurried before Ye Yuan and knelt down, slapping himself non-stop as he said viciously, "Milord, it was Old Jiang, I, who was befuddled! Old Jiang understands that milord, you, are doing it for our good! In this life, Old Jiang isn't going anywhere! I pledge allegiance to milord for life!"
Seeing this scene, Yue Xinping opened his mouth wide, with a look of disbelief.
This scene's change was seriously too quick!
He did not think that this guy was actually really able to resist the temptation of becoming a deity.
Right at this time, Ao Qian glared at him fiercely and said icily, "Asked you to get lost, didn't hear? Want your Grandpa Ao to send you off, is it?"
Yue Xinping did not fear Jiang Taicang, but he was not Ao Qian's match. Seeing Ao Qian about to fly off the handle, he said with an awkward look, "H-Haha, g-going right now."
Seeing Yue Xinping walk far away, Ao Qian trio came before Yue Xinping and directly knelt down.
"Milord, Ao Qian was muddled! Milord, please punish!" Done talking, he also gave himself two tight slaps.
Wu Luo and Ruan Shuangzhou also imitated Ao Qian and said, "Milord, please punish!"
Ye Yuan's gaze swept over the four people's face, his tone somewhat cold as he said, "This is the first time, and also the last time! Everyone says that if you use a man, don't suspect him. If you suspect him, don't use him! To me, this is the case. To you guys, it's similarly like so! Although you all are my servants in name, I've never treated you guys as servants. If you all don't even trust me, then our fate has also come to an end!"
The four people's hearts turned fearful, and they said in unison, "Milord, we were wrong!"
Ye Yuan nodded slightly. His tone relaxed a little and said, "Talking about Deity Realm, I yearn for it more than any of you! But this time, trust me. This Dao Spirit Fruit … definitely has something wrong!"
Ye Yuan's such firm tone made the four people startled in their hearts.
Chapter 1069 - 100 Thousand Martial Artists Breaking the Formation Together!
"Purhk"
Ding Zhanguo, who was currently studying the Heaven Burning Annihilation Chaos Grand Array, suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood, giving everyone a scare.
"Master Ding, are you alright?"
Seeing his appearance, there was immediately someone who went up to show great concern.
At this very moment, he was everyone's hope. Even if there was a bit of rustling of leaves in the wind, it would affect everyone's hearts.
Ding Zhanguo waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. It's just overly exhausting my mind. This divine rank grand array is indeed incomparably profound. This old man comprehended for three days and nights, and finally caught a trace of inkling."
Hearing Ding Zhanguo say so, everyone all had excited looks!
Sun Man came forward and said with clasped hands, "Since Master has some gains, please advise on how to break the formation!"
Ding Zhanguo slowly nodded his head and said, "I dare not say give advice, but everyone should be of one mind and work together. This Heaven Burning Annihilation Chaos Grand Array truly seizes the good fortune of heaven and earth. Even among divine rank grand arrays, it should be an immensely powerful existence too. It's just that through the devastation of time, it's already far from before. Otherwise, no matter how many people we have, it's impossible to break it too."
Everyone waited for Ding Zhanguo to continue with looks of anticipation. They were completely unconcerned with how profound the grand array was. They only wanted to know how to break the formation.
Three days of waiting, they were already burning with impatience.
Ding Zhanguo continued slowly, "Initially, this grand array is without any weakness to exploit, as if it's chaos, making people having no way of making the first move. But no idea why, there's a nodal point in the south-eastern direction that's very weak. When the time comes, everybody must attack this point together. There should be hopes of breaking the formation."
When Ding Zhanguo finished talking, the corners of Ye Yuan's mouth curled up slightly, appearing very disdainful.
These three days, he had nothing to do and was also observing this grand array the whole time.
"Milord
, did Master Ding say incorrectly?" Ruan Shuangzhou asked softly.
Ye Yuan said, "This grand array has clearly sustained heavy damage before and is long a far cry from before already. Although that node in the south-east direction is a weak area, it's one of the array formation's strongest nodal points. Its power is bound to be extremely strong. Even if they can break the array formation, probably over half of the martial artists present will be dead or injured!"
The words made Ao Qian and the rest feel a chill run down their spines.
Over half dead or injured, that was at least 50 thousand martial artists! Such terrifying power was simply unheard of.
Very clearly, Ding Zhanguo did not see through this point.
Ye Yuan's comprehension of this grand array had far surpassed Ding Zhanguo.
While talking, that side already prepared to break the formation. It was only to see them all rub their fists and wiped their palms, abnormally excited. However, they did not know that the god of death had already quietly arrived.
Once they broke the formation, the vicinity would definitely become hell on earth.
The densely-packed crowd of martial artists came to that weak node in the south-east direction. Sun Man stood in the air and called out in a clear voice, "Now, everyone, each of you circulates your strongest attacks and await my command. Everybody make a move in unison and attack this nodal point at the same time! We only have one chance! If we can't break the grand array, we'll likely suffer the grand array's backlash immediately! Hence, I hope that everyone doesn't think about holding back strength. Once the others are annihilated by the grand array, you all can forget about getting the Dao Spirit Fruit as well!"
One had to admit that Sun Man was an expert in stirring up the atmosphere. With him saying so, the expressions on everyone's faces became solemn.
Among them, there were clearly quite a number of people harboring the mentality of fishing in troubled waters. They planned on showing up for the work but not exerting themselves, saving strength to snatch the Dao Spirit Fruit at the back.
With Sun Man saying so, probably the vast majority of the people would not dare to have this notion anymore.
A grand array's backlash was no joke. Those few divine king experts' outcomes previously, everyone already saw it.
Sun Man slowly swept a glance over everyone and said coldly, "Now … begin!"
Following Sun Man's order, all of the martial artists each displayed their strongest martial technique, acc.u.mulating power and awaiting release.
With over 100 thousand martial artists displaying martial techniques at the same time, this spectacle was truly incomparably astonishing.
Casting one's gaze over, as far as the eye could see was filled with a dazzling multi-colored light; incomparably breathtaking.
Everyone was acc.u.mulating power and awaiting release. But the essence energy undulations which everyone exuded virtually made people asphyxiated.
This point, it was not just Ye Yuan and his group felt it, even they themselves felt it too.
At this instant, they suddenly had a sort of blind confidence. They felt that this round of collective volley, even Deity Realm powerhouses would have to nurse a grievance too.
They had never felt that they were so powerful before!
"Release!"
Sun Man gave a fierce cry. All of the martial artists practically fired over towards that grand array's nodal point at the same time!
Those who entered the Immemorial Medicine Garden, even the weakest had Phaseless Realm strength. This round of collective release was truly unbelievably astounding.
One wave after another of incredibly powerful attacks converged to form a terrifying destructive power, blasting on the grand array.
That sort of feeling was akin to two armies facing off, ten thousand arrows releasing together; the whole process being incomparably grand!
But these martial artists' control over their own attacks, those soldiers could not hold a candle to it.
Each attack did not deviate in the slightest. 100 thousand attacks landed on that node accurately, giving off a series of rumbling sounds.
Rumble …
The entire grand array started trembling intensely, especially that nodal point, which actually fragmented apart!
When those martial artists saw this situation, each and every one of them was incomparably excited. But, in the next instant, their smiles froze on their faces.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Terrifying fire essence power sprawled out above the grand array, turning into countless streams of light and shooting into the crowd of martial artists.
That spectacle was akin to a meteor shower raining down.
Except, the destructive power of these flames were countless times stronger compared to a meteor shower.
"ARGHH!!"
Waves of miserable cries sounded over. How could those martial artists still bother with snatching what Dao Spirit Fruit? Each and every one of them scattered in all directions, shrill miserable cries rising one after another.
In a blink of an eye, this Immemorial Medicine Garden really became hell on earth. Virtually half of the martial artists were directly burned to death by this raging flame. Ye Yuan hit the mark!
"Ye Yuan, let me out," suddenly, a voice came from Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness.
It was Ye Qing. Ever since after Ye Yuan went to Bright Moon City, he had been in closed-seclusion in the Vast Heaven Pagoda all along.
After giving birth to a primordial spirit, Ye Yuan helped him to tidy up his meridians too. This made his cultivation speed became very fast. At present, he was already middle-stage Tier 9!
Ye Yuan's brows furrowed, and he let Ye Qing out.
"What is it?" Ye Yuan asked curiously.
Ever since Ye Qing entered the Vast Heaven Pagoda, he never came out again. But this time, he had a rare show of initiative to request to come out.
Ye Qing said, "That Dao Spirit Tree is already dead! I sense a terrifying aura transmitting over from underground. These fools seem to have poked a hole in the sky! Ye Yuan, quickly run! Any slower and you won't be able to escape anymore!"
The moment these words came out, the expressions of Ao Qian and the rest all changed drastically!
Unfortunately, Ye Yuan's prophecy had come true and hit the mark!
This whatever Dao Spirit Fruit indeed had a problem!
Rumble!
Right then, within the Heaven Burning Annihilation Chaos Grand Array, a massive vine broke out of the earth and slammed onto the grand array from inside!
The position it attacked was precisely that vulnerable nodal point!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Cracking sounds as if glass breaking transmitted over. Thin lines of cracks appeared on the grand array!
Chapter 1070 - Terrifying Holy Mother Devil Flower!
"Hahaha … Holy Mother Devil Flower, you finally see the light of day anew! From this day forth, my fiend race shall rule the Divine Realm! Hahaha!"
Ye Yuan was just about to cast merging into heaven and earth to leave when he suddenly heard that black-clothed person he exchanged blows with previously let out a burst of crazed laughter.
At this moment, black gas wove around the black-clothed person's body, emitting a shocking power, not the slightest bit weaker compared to Void Mystic powerhouses.
It was not just that black-clothed person, but on the bodies of those Medicine King Hall's martial artists as well. Each and every one of them were swathed in black gas.
Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan's expression could not help changing drastically.
He finally recalled who this black-clothed person was!
Fiendgod Jia Lan!
This guy actually ganged up together with the Medicine King Hall's people.
No, wait, why would fiendish energy also billow to the skies on the bodies of those Medicine King Hall martial artists?
Especially Sun Man, the fiendish energy on his body was not at all inferior to Jia Lan's eit
her.
Ye Yuan's head rumbled and went blank all of a sudden. All of the doubts were suddenly cleared up in this instant!
Turns out that the fiend race had long infiltrated into the Medicine King Hall, that was why there was that massive accident back then!
Most likely, Ji Canglan was completely a member of the fiend race. He laid low in the Medicine King Hall. The goal was to be able to take over the position one day.
Ji Canglan was simply an ambitious and savage wolf!
The current Medicine King Hall had already been utterly reduced to a den of monsters. Even Sun Man already fell into the demonic path.
"Milord, what's with you? Are you alright?" Jiang Taicang asked concernedly.
The current Ye Yuan was trembling from head to toe due to agitation. He never would have thought that the fiend race actually concealed so deeply! As early as several hundred years ago, they were already plotting to devour the Medicine King Hall.
If Ji Canglan was of the fiend race, then everything could be explained.
Why he betrayed Father, betrayed the Medicine King Hall. The root of all this was because of the fiend race!
Moreover, father Ji Zhengyang had also said it back then, Ji Canglan still had an even stronger faction behind him. Then this faction should be the fiend race.
Even if Ye Yuan was impossibly smart, he was also unable to predict that the truth of the matter was actually like this!
Ye Yuan s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath. Forcefully composing himself, he waved his hand and said, "I'm fine! But … this devil vine coming into being, the Divine Realm will likely … have a change in rule!"
No need Ye Yuan to say, the few people already deeply sensed the might of the devil vine. That surging fiendish energy already gradually overflowed from inside the fragmented grand array. Just this tip of the iceberg practically made people give up all hope already.
The Dao Spirit Tree originally fluctuating with essence energy actually directly withered to death at this time, while the Dao Spirit Fruit immediately disappeared.
This was completely a hoax, a scheme!
