Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

Chapter 1220: Powerful Array

There was no need to speak any more nonsense.

It was time to fight!

They came here just to piss off the Hai family.

Upon receiving Luo Tian’s command, the Essence Devouring Insect immediately pounced forward excitedly with its incredibly powerful physique.

Countless tentacles thrashed wildly with ferocity.

The Hai family disciples on the city wall had all unknowingly changed their expressions. They no longer displayed the arrogant look they had moments ago or the desire to rush down and kill Luo Tian.

Ghost Servant was frowning as he said to himself, “What a powerful Essence Devouring Insect. I never imagined the devil sect could cultivate such a mutated demonic beast. If the Hai family wants to dominate the Central Continent, the devil sects on this continent must be eradicated. Otherwise, if more of these Essence Devouring Insects are cultivated, not many of us will be able to handle them.”

“Fortunately, this demonic insect is only at rank eight. A full-power strike from me is enough to heavily wound it.” Ghost Servant pondered over the situation.

Watching the Essence Devouring Insect about to strike the city, he sneered coldly, “Luo Tian, I forgot to tell you: First City absolutely forbids demonic beasts from approaching. Once a demonic beast approaches, the city’s defensive array will automatically activate.”

“Huh?”

Luo Tian’s heart skipped a beat as he turned his head to look at Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan shook his head, indicating he wasn’t aware.

As for the Essence Devouring Insect, it couldn’t care less what the humans were talking about. Looking at the martial artists on the city wall who possessed pure yuan energy due to their high talent, it couldn’t help but gulp wildly. How could it wait? It immediately wanted to devour them and break through to the ninth rank!

“Ommm~!”

“Boom~!”

An explosive sound rang out.

A massive energy pillar descended from the sky, exploding above the center of First City. The energy at the center rapidly spread out and enveloped the entire city in the blink of an eye, forming a thick defensive array.

The Essence Devouring Insect was instantly thrown back, crashing through a large patch of towering trees and leaving a destructive mess behind.

It was a rank eight demonic beast! Could this city’s protection array be that powerful?

The power was terrifying to a complete mess!

Luo Tian’s heart shook, “Holy crap, this array is too awesome!”

In the Tianxuan Continent, he was a grandmaster of arrays, so he was aware of the power of arrays. He hadn’t used or encountered arrays in the Ancient World yet. But today, his heart was pounding upon seeing the power of the First City’s array. ṘΑ𐌽Ȱ𝐁Ɛš

Liu Zhan’s face sank as he cursed, “Fucking hell, there really is a city protection array! And this array is probably above level nine! Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to throw back a peak rank eight Essence Devouring Insect. And that thing looks like it’s injured somewhat.”

The Essence Devouring Insect was thrown several kilometers away, leaving a long gully in its wake.

Too fierce!

Ghost Servant laughed coldly, “Luo Tian, you never imagined this scenario, right? Hahaha… Once the city protection array is activated, demonic beasts cannot enter, and neither can you. Now I can tell you very clearly, you have failed the second round of the Misty Cloud Academy’s assessment!”

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

“Hahaha…”

Laughing hysterically.

Laughter that was filled with arrogance and smugness.

The Hai family disciples on the city wall were also laughing.

“Weren’t you very arrogant?”

“Opposing the Hai family only leads to death! Hahaha… Luo Tian, once you fail, the Misty Cloud Academy will no longer protect you. At that time, let’s see how you’re going to fight against the Hai family, you stupid trash! Hahaha…”

“So what if you can control a devil sect’s demonic insect? You still have to obediently stay outside the city gate, hahaha…”

The Hai family disciples were secretly breathing a huge sigh of relief.

If the Essence Devouring Insect had breached the city gate, the consequences would have been unimaginable for them.

Now that the city protection array was activated, every one of them became extremely excited and no longer had anything to fear.

The city’s protection array for First City was rarely activated.

The last time it was activated was hundreds of years ago, so not many people knew about it.

As for Ghost Servant, he too had participated in the Misty Cloud Academy’s assessment in the past and even became a student of the academy. Having followed the Hai family, he naturally knew things others didn’t, which was why he had the Hai family disciples enter First City.

Whenever Luo Tian appears with the Essence Devouring Insect, he would just wait on the city wall.

If Luo Tian didn’t bring the Essence Devouring Insect with him, then…

Ghost Servant felt like he had everything under control. Looking at Luo Tian’s grim expression, he sneered, “So what if it’s a rank eight demonic insect? If you want to oppose the Hai family, it’s all useless even if you summon a great perfection realm demonic beast.”

“Luo Tian, I can tell you that this array will automatically disappear in seven days. At that time… hehe… You will die by my hand!”

With his current cultivation, killing Luo Tian was very simple.

But he didn’t want to just kill Luo Tian. He wanted to torture him!

Because this was the cruelest method of death!

He knew very well that Huangfu Jue favored Luo Tian. Ren Xiaoyao also favored Luo Tian, and even some important people in the Misty Cloud Academy favored Luo Tian. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have agreed to Huangfu Jue’s proposal.

This was even better.

He would show those people that the person they valued was really just a piece of trash with a shattered dantian.

At the same time, he was showing those people from the Misty Cloud Academy who opposed the Hai family that those who offended the Hai family would end up dead. Basically, anyone who dared to oppose the Hai family or had thoughts of doing so would have a bad ending.

This was a deterrent.

Killing Luo Tian was not just about washing away the shame of the Poseidon ranked assassin’s failure; it was also for Huangfu Jue to see!

Inside the city was Huangfu Ya, fuming at what was going on.

She was very clear about everything that was happening on the city wall. She just hadn’t expected that the Hai family would send out Ghost Servant.

She wanted to rush to the city gate, but she knew very well that doing so would be useless. The city protection array had already been activated, and it wouldn’t disappear until the assessment ended. This meant that Luo Tian was bound to fail this assessment!

“Sister Meng, I’m really sorry.”

“The Hai family people are too detestable! I have to report this matter to my father!” Huangfu Ya stomped her foot in anger.

Huang Tianyu, who was beside her, was secretly sneering. He was feeling incomparably smug in his heart as he said to himself, “Luo Tian, you damn dog thing. Looks like today is your day! Hahaha… It’s really exhilarating! A stinking pile of mud like you still wants to become a star in the sky? Don’t dream about it! Hahaha… After the assessment ends, you’ll go back to wherever you came from. No… the Hai family will definitely not let you go, hahaha… So awesome! So awesome! This feels great! Once you leave, that little slut Huangfu Ya will be mine, hahaha…”

Outside the city on a hillside stood two elders with no discernible aura.

“Brother Shi, with the city protection array activated, no one can get in. That kid Luo Tian is probably going to fail this time. Alas, it looks like we’re going to lose this time, and Brother Huangfu will be disappointed,” Yu Tianhai said with a slight sigh.

Shi Kun’s brows were tightly furrowed before he said, “Look at the kid Luo Tian; he doesn’t seem to have given up.”

Yu Tianhai looked at Luo Tian’s contemplative expression and replied, “What can he do even if he is unwilling to give up? The city protection array, once activated, will only disappear when the assessment ends. He has no way to get through it.”

“Not necessarily…”

Shi Kun smiled while saying, “The city protection array is not invincible; there is a way for it to be broken!”
