<h4>Chapter 773 - Activating the Grand Array</h4>


    Esteemed Lan Yue couldn’t wait to open the scroll. He was a rare person in this period who knew the characters making up the divine script. It didn’t take long before he finished reading the few words on the scroll.


    Esteemed Lan Yue’s expression didn’t look very good. “This method is extremely dangerous. If you haven’t mastered it well, the whole Nine Lands will be destroyed in your own hands without the need for evil Qi cultivators. Moreover, no one will be able to escape this catastrophe.”


    Yan Tianhen scratched his head. “I didn’t want to use this method at first, but if you look at the current situation, isn’t it thest resort? The evil Qi cultivators are too powerful, and the evil Qi has covered the sky and blocked the sun, which is a hundred times stronger than the evil spirits in Spirit Sect’s era. If we don’t make a move now, once the sparrow spirits are absorbed by the evil Qi cultivators, we can only wait for death.”


    In a one-on-one fight, no one would be Sheng Ren’s match.


    Even if Yan Tianhen and Lin Xuanzhi joined hands to fight, at most, they’d only be able to fight him to a draw. But Sheng Ren wasn’t the only terrifying thing here.


    Esteemed Lan Yue also understood this truth. At this time, they needed to have the courage to take risks and give it a go. The matter could no longer be dyed.


    Esteemed Lan Yue said, “I’ll notify the rulers of the Nine Lands.”


    Yan Tianhen nodded. “Dage and I will find the eye of the Grand Protection Array, and then directly tell the leaders of all circles of the Nine Lands.”


    Esteemed Lan Yue paused for a while. “Who did you see in the evil spirit array?”


    Yan Tianhen answered, “I saw Dao Zu and many people in the Spirit Sect era.”


    Esteemed Lan Yue nodded. “Dao Zu should be the most reliable. Go ahead.”


    No one could’ve imagined that the Nine Lands had actually been secretly connected by a huge underground array during Spirit Sect’s era. It went without saying who did that.


    Moreover, if Yan Tianhen hadn’t seen the records on the scroll, he would never have thought that the eye of the array was on the Myriad Dao Academy’s Little Peni Ind.


    Maybe everything had its own destiny.


    Dao Zu was someone who took one step while looking ahead a hundred steps. Although he was no longer alive and although it was extremely likely that he never entered the cycle of reincarnation, he was still determined to spare no effort in order to leave future generations a treasure that could turn the tide for them.


    “Once the Grand Protection Array is activated, there will be no going back.” Yan Tianhen remarked, “I wonder how many people will agree with what we’re doing.”


    Lin Xuanzhi looked at him. “At this time, anyone who disagrees can only be killed.”


    “How cruel.”


    Lin Xuanzhi said lightly, “When you see the world being overrun by evil creatures, you won’t feel that it’s cruel anymore.”


    Yan Tianhen shrugged and thought of something else. “Dage, if we lose control, and the Nine Lands explode, this will be ourst day together.”


    When a world explodes, nothing will be able to survive.


    Even if a soul remained, it would be bound to be shattered to pieces and turned into dust between Heaven and Earth. In any case, it would be impossible to return to reincarnation.


    Lin Xuanzhi embraced Yan Tianhen. He bowed his head and kissed Yan Tianhen gently on the corner of his forehead. “Then let it be thest day. At least we’ll still be together, whether in life or in death. That’s enough for me.”


    Yan Tianhen smiled knowingly.


    At that moment, a strong evil spirit approached from a distance and getting closer and closer.


    Yan Tianhen’s mood was definitely different from before when he saw Cangdi Fenng. He rubbed his nose, walked forward, stood in front of Cangdi Fenng, and blinked at him a few times.


    Cangdi Fenng ttened his mouth. “You can only be killed by me. You can’t send your head to other evil Qi cultivators.”


    Yan Tianhen raised his hand and Cangdi Fenng subconsciously retreated a little. The next second, his head was gently rubbed by Yan Tianhen a few times.


    Cangdi Fenng: “???”


    Cangdi Fenng was frightened.


    Yan Tianhen said, “I’m sorry.”


    Cangdi Fenng was dumbfounded.


    Yan Tianhen said, “I misunderstood you before. Little Lang is a good child, both in the past and in the future. I killed you by mistake. If you hate me and me me, we’ll settle our private ounts after the culprit is killed. Do you think this is feasible?”


    Cangdi Fenng stammered, “H-How did you know?”


    Yan Tianhen said, “Master left an evil spirit array. Dage and I entered the evil spirit array. When we saw the truth many years ago, we knew that the culprit was Sheng Ren, and you were hurt by him.”


    Cangdi Fenng pouted. “Now you know. When you cursed at me and killed me, you never listened to my exnation.”


    Yan Tianhen felt even more guilty. “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I’ve always been biased against you.”


    Lin Xuanzhi couldn’t bear to watch anymore. He came to pull them apart and said to Cangdi Fenng, “Are you still being controlled by Sheng Ren now?”


    Cangdi Fenng looked at him nkly. “Since when have I been controlled by him? No wait, how can the culprit be Sheng Ren? Isn’t Sheng Ren Master’s younger brother?”


    Yan Tianhen: “…”


    Lin Xuanzhi: “…”


    To be honest, a fool has a fool’s blessings, and ignorance is also a kind of happiness.


    Yan Tianhen said earnestly, “Do you still remember that guy who was bitten by you?”


    Cangdi Fenng couldn’t help shivering. “How could I forget? He’s really a bad person.”


    Yan Tianhen exined, “That person is Sheng Ren. You bit him and gave him the opportunity to be an evil Qi cultivator. He may have obtained some secret methods and soon became an evil Qi cultivator who brought disaster to the world. This current evil Qi cultivator who’s a hundred times more powerful than you is also Sheng Ren.”


    Cangdi Fenng’s jaw almost dropped in surprise.


    Lin Xuanzhi asked, “Are you with us or with Sheng Ren?”


    Cangdi Fenng murmured, “Can’t I be on my own side?”


    Lin Xuanzhi looked at him and didn’t speak.


    Cangdi Fenng came back to his senses. “What if I choose not to participate?”


    Lin Xuanzhi smiled gently. “I don’t mind if there’s one less evil Qi cultivator in the world. Although I can’t kill Sheng Ren, it’s not difficult to kill you.”


    Cangdi Fenng: “…”


    He shouldn’t be here. He should be in the graveyard.


    Cangdi Fenng had to join.


    Yan Tianhen nced at Cangdi Fenng. “What about that impostor? Why didn’t hee with you?”


    Cangdi Fenng had an unnatural expression. “He’s angry with me.”


    Yan Tianhen asked, “What did you do to him?”


    Cangdi Fenng nced at him. “I merely said that he’s an impostor, so he shouldn’t delusionally believe that he can rece Shixiong’s position in my heart.”


    Yan Tianhen gave Cangdi Fenng a deep look.


    Cangdi Fenng rolled his eyes.


    “That fellow was originally a ghost cultivator. It’s just that he had some memories belonging to Lingyu Shixiong. He didn’t know before, butter I told him that he wasn’t Lingyu. He actually threw a tantrum. He doesn’t even remember who was the one who saved him before.”


    Lin Xuanzhi nodded. “Truly scummy.”


    Cangdi Fenng: “…”


    To be honest, he felt that Chang Sheng was more than a little biased against him.


    With the support of Cangdi Fenng, the crisis at Myriad Dao Academy was alleviated. Extremely bored, Cangdi Fenng transformed the evil Qi into evil creatures and had them fight the invading evil creatures.


    He sat to the side and watched as Yan Tianhen and Lin Xuanzhipletely drained the only river on Little Peni that went through the entire ind. They then ced the Twin Lotus Lamp on the dried-out soil.


    At the same time, Lin Xuanzhi ced a branch of the sacred Jianmu tree from the Tomb of Youshan with the Twin Lotus Lamp on thend in the middle of the meandering river.


    Cangdi Fenng rested his chin on his hands as he watched them do all this. He asked curiously, “What’s this for? That tree branch looks a little familiar, but I can’t remember where I’ve seen it.”


    Yan Tianhen exined, “In a while, you’d better hide in Lin Xuanzhi’s soul te. Otherwise, you might die miserably.”


    Cangdi Fenng stared at Yan Tianhen warily. “What are you guys going to do?”


    Yan Tianhen smiled. “We are going to… Destroy the Nine Lands.”


    Cangdi Fenng: “…”


    Esteemed Lan Yue soon sent over the news that all the leaders of the Nine Lands had been notified, and they had decided to let them have a go at it and let Lin Xuanzhi and Yan Tianhen start as soon as possible.


    Lin Xuanzhi took out the forged engraving pen, and with a gentle stroke across the air, he cut a thin hole in the thick evil Qi that hid the sun in the sky. Then, he led the natural brilliance from the sun to the dried up river with a special secret technique.


    The scattered air flow soon filled the whole winding river like a map, and in the blink of an eye, these air flows condensed into a solid water flow, rushing into the river course from all directions as they headed for the Twin Lotus Lamp.


    Lin Xuanzhi stepped back unsteadily.


    Yan Tianhen quickly supported him.


    “Are you okay?”


    “No problem.”


    Cangdi Fenng pursed his lips.


    Although Lin Xuanzhi seemed very rxed when he used that technique, appearances were deceiving. In fact, that earlier move was enough to exhaust all his spiritual Qi.


    The sun spot fell into the eye of the array. The Jianmu branch that originally seemed to be withered sprouted roots at a speed visible to the naked eye and wed towards the ground.


    “Jianmu!” Cangdi Fenng stared wide-eyed and eximed.


    “Call him Shixiong.” Yan Tianhen said, “Don’t be rude.”


    Cangdi Fenng habitually gave an “Oh”, then showed a speechless expression. At the same time, when the river water flowed, the arrays under every region of the Nine Lands were activated by the respective ruler of the Land.


    If people who were very familiar with the terrain of the Nine Lands saw this, they would be surprised to find that the rivers in Little Peni correspond to sparrow spirit veins in the Nine Lands.


    The rumbling sound could be heard everywhere in the Nine Lands. The earth was shaking and thend was constantly disintegrating. At a speed visible to the naked eye, the original sparrow spirits buried in hard stones of the sparrow mines were separated.


    As if pulled away by a force, they all flew towards the same location. The sparrow spirits flew all over the sky - red, orange, and cyan.


    One after another, bridges built by the sparrow spirits that traversed the Nine Lands appeared in front of all the Daoist cultivators in the Nine Lands.


    “This… What exactly is this array?”


    “It’s amazing!”


    “I’ve already sensed the powerful spiritual Qi inside this array. My cultivation has actually increased!”


    “Look! Look at those evil creatures, they’ve been smashed by the spiritual Qi!”


    “The evil Qi has been forced back. Great, this move is effective!”


    “We are saved, the Nine Lands are saved!”
