Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 288: Chapter 168: Array Cultivator—Ji Yuan!

Currently, even though we haven’t obtained a part of Ji Yuan’s body, direct Divine Sense lock-on can still be initiated; at most, it will just be slightly less effective.

Killing a beginner Foundation Establishment cultivator shouldn’t be much of a problem.

In the blink of an eye, before you know it.

Within a split second, Ji Yuan sensed a gravestone condensing above his head, and simultaneously felt a Divine Sense fall upon him.

He immediately felt his hair stand on end, a chill running down his spine.

”Not good!”

Disregarding the gravestone above, Ji Yuan immediately activated his Divine Sense, extinguishing that Divine Sense mark and counterattacking in the direction it came from.

Outside the array, the man in the black robe turned pale and, before he could drive the Bone-Piercing Nail into the life-seizing doll, he was so frightened that he retreated several steps.

Such terrifying Divine Sense!

This person is probably a mid-stage Foundation Establishment!

”Spirits, quickly!”

He hurriedly waved his hand.

The short man then activated the gray-black gravestone, accompanied by a massive wave of Spiritual Qi descending.

Ji Yuan finally moved.

This secret technique was so powerful, it was definitely not a match for direct confrontation, not to mention that initiating a Talisman Treasure would probably be too late.

Thus, he reluctantly took out an incomplete clay figure.

This clay figure was a life-saving treasure he had previously bought at an auction for 80 middle-grade Spirit Stones, known as the ”Substitute Clay Figure”, with an extremely simple effect.

Once activated, it can replace his aura, allowing him to escape three miles away.

The distance isn’t particularly far.

During a life-and-death struggle, it can only temporarily shift his position to avoid lethal strikes.

Just like the current situation Ji Yuan faced, being locked by a secret technique.

It was still impossible to rely on this thing to escape unscathed.

But for Ji Yuan now, three miles were enough!

He didn’t even need three miles.

Activating the clay doll in his hand, he left a clay figure in his place as his form vanished instantly.

Just as he thought he could escape this array, when he barely reached the edge of the array, he was blocked by the black mist pillar.

The gravestone crashed down to the ground with a loud noise.

Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense scanned back, discovering that the clay figure hadn’t even lasted a moment before being completely shattered by the gravestone.

Hu Li grinned and said, ”Comrade, my ’Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array’ is not so easily broken.”

Ji Yuan’s form gradually transitioned from ethereal to solid, with the shadows of a Qiu Dragon and a Serpent still coiling around him.

”Oh?”

He looked up.

The short man continued to push the secret technique; for a moment, the Spiritual Qi couldn’t keep up, but he still forced the gravestone to descend, trying to crush Ji Yuan in one fell swoop.

The previous man in the black robe, shaken by Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense breakthrough, was still in a daze, his face somewhat unsightly.

Hu Li, meanwhile, was still manipulating the array, unable to take action.

Ji Yuan avoided the secret technique’s attack and didn’t escape.

His Divine Sense delved into his storage bag, taking out two small iron boxes.

In Hu Li’s bewildered gaze, Ji Yuan said, ”It’s impolite not to reciprocate. Since that’s the case, let me show you my array.”

As his words fell.

The two iron boxes expanded with the wind. Before Hu Li and the other two could react, two even larger arrays suddenly appeared, almost instantly enveloping the ”Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array” inside.

Although Ji Yuan’s Star Spiral Cloud Barrier and Star Dust Illusionary Killing Array are also Tier Two Arrays, even among Tier Two Arrays, there are strong and weak ones!

The current situation was already very clear. Ji Yuan’s two arrays were just stronger than theirs!

These two arrays not only enclosed the Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array, but also enveloped the three early Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivators within.

”What?!”

The short man, perceiving this scene, immediately panicked, causing the gray-black gravestone he had just summoned to crash down again.

”An array?! You know how to use arrays too!”

Even Hu Li was shocked this time.

The intelligence Feng Xiuxiu provided earlier... Damn it, being so young and already at Foundation Establishment was one thing, but to be so proficient in arrays too?!

”Brother Hu, what should we do? Quickly break the array!”

The man in the black robe urgently transmitted his voice.

Hu Li took a deep breath, suppressing his panic while he said in a deep voice, ”You two hold him off first, I’ll break the array!”

”Okay!”

Among the three, only Hu Li understood arrays.

The task of breaking the array could only be entrusted to him.

Ji Yuan had no idea what they were thinking and, upon setting up the two arrays, he was already taking action.

The Star Spiral Cloud Barrier enveloped and protected him, isolating the effects of the Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array as it shrouded the surroundings in mist.

As for the Star Dust Illusionary Killing Array... Ji Yuan’s heart and mind moved.

”Fall—”

In an instant, countless Star Dust manifested in the world, enveloping the entire Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array.

After that, Ji Yuan no longer needed to worry.

Violent explosion sounds erupted one after another, and the three Demon Cultivators reacted extremely quickly. As starlight scattered, they already deployed their protective measures.

Whether it be a shield or treasure armor.

”Boom—”

Thousands of explosions converged into a gigantic noise, dazzling lights flared, as if stars themselves had been dragged to the ground.

South of the city.

Liu Yuan, who had just forcibly broken the Thirty-Six Thick Smoke Array with his Sword Technique, instinctively looked towards the northeast, and it wasn’t just him. The other three mid-stage Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivators did the same.

The disturbance was simply too great.

When Hu Li had previously activated the array to trap Ji Yuan, Feng Xiuxiu and the others were already aware of it.

They felt assured at the time.

But now, seeing the light and the all-consuming cyclone... they were inevitably a bit flustered.
