Chapter 690: One Extra Word Against an Enemy Is a Waste

The purple Divine‑Punishing Thunder, bearing the law of lightning, transformed into a sea of thunder, cutting the blood‑colored light pillar like a razor.

The blood array momentarily stalled.

Li Xueru seized that instant, unleashed his full strength, and the Eternal Great Wall fully expanded and contracted.

All the blood arrays in the Nine Fortresses were severed by the Eternal Great Wall.

The blood arrays on the outer battlefield beyond the Fortress kept operating, but their power could no longer be transmitted smoothly.

The blood array where Jiang Yi stood became an isolated island.

Jiang Yi was shocked; his gaze fell on Jiang Chen, "How is this possible? It can't be."

Then he saw the Ancient Thunder Outer Tower in Jiang Chen's hand and exclaimed, "Ancient Thunder Outer Tower, how could you obtain the Ancient Thunder Outer Tower.

"Even if you obtained the Ancient Thunder Outer Tower, you couldn't control it; you're only level 77, impossible, absolutely impossible!"

In this moment, Jiang Yi resembled the Long Huang.

His eyes were filled with incredibility, disbelief.

He could recognize the Ancient Thunder Outer Tower, and he must also know the Divine‑Punishing Fortress. Jiang Chen can now be 100 % certain that Jiang Yi was not merely bewitched in mind, but truly possessed.

At this moment, the soul within Jiang Yi's body was not Jiang Yi's, but a being from beyond this world.

Jiang Chen did not know which race it was.

But that mattered not; now he was an enemy, and Jiang Chen only needed to find a way to kill him.

Against an enemy, Jiang Chen need not utter a single useless word; an extra character would waste his tongue.

A tap of his finger sent another purple Divine‑Punishing Thunder roaring out, exploding onto the blood array, shaking it incessantly.

At this point, the blood array where Jiang Yi stood had been isolated; the Eternal Great Wall had severed the connections between the blood arrays, turning it into an isolated island.

Jiang Yi did not abandon the blood array; he roared, continuously amplifying its power, attempting to break through the Eternal Great Wall's restriction.

His whole body seeped blood, instantly turning into a blood person, and the blood array's power likewise intensified.

Li Xueru likewise poured all his strength into strengthening the Water‑Eternal Great Wall formation, and the two formations continuously clashed.

The collision of the formations triggered violent Energy Fluctuation, and fierce winds howled throughout the Fortress, with Energy Turbulence everywhere.

A large number of practitioners were struck by the Energy Turbulence and were wounded instantly. Jiang Chen swept his gaze and shouted, "Divine General's command, everyone leave the Fortress!"

"Teacher, take everyone and go, I'll handle this place!"

Lao Hong was about to say something when Yan Kuangsheng pulled him back, "No more talk, move!" Li Xueru, more decisive than Yan Kuangsheng, flung out laws that turned into Runes and merged into the Eternal Great Wall.

The Eternal Great Wall is not merely a defensive formation; it also possesses myriad functions, one of which is teleportation.

In coordination with the Shenlong Tower, Li Xueru instantly pushed the Eternal Great Wall's teleportation function to its limit.

The Shenlong Tower thundered and expanded, towering like a mountain, and numerous Teleportation Arrays appeared throughout the Fortress, linking to the Shenlong Tower and sending everyone inside the Fortress into the Shenlong Tower,

"Xiao Mo, be careful!"

Li Xueru barked low, teleporting away with Lao Hong and others. In almost an instant, Fortress No. 9 was emptied, leaving only Jiang Chen and Jiang Yi.

Li Xueru appeared outside the Fortress, still fully maintaining the Eternal Great Wall.

The Eternal Great Wall's Light Screen firmly blocked the sky‑piercing blood pillar of the blood array,

Not only Fortress No. 9 knows this; the other eight Fortresses are the same.

Li Xueru gradually began to understand,

There are nine main blood arrays, each corresponding to the 990 formations on the primal battlefield.

Once the nine main arrays are isolated, the 990 external formations are like soldiers without command, clueless about what to do.

And the leader of the nine main arrays is the formation within Fortress No. 9.

In other words, as long as that formation in Fortress No. 9 is controlled, the other eight formations are no threat.

Nevertheless, to be safe, Li Xueru issued numerous orders to destroy the blood arrays.

Lao Hong, Yan Kuangsheng, Ye Chen Shi, and many Divine-level Strongmen of the Human Race received Li Xueru's orders.

Many Divine-level Strongmen were unclear about what had happened, even doubting the blood arrays in each Fortress.

After receiving Li Xueru's command, none hesitated and acted immediately.

Lao Hong was the first to rush toward the blood array outside Fortress No. 9; he could not deal with Jiang Yi, nor the array previously controlled by Jiang Yi.

But now the external blood array is unclaimed, making its destruction far easier.

The power of the laws thunder‑killed it; under iron fists, the blood array collapsed swiftly.

Li Xueru sent Yan Kuangsheng to Fortress No. 8; Yan Kuangsheng first cleared the blood array inside the Fortress, then dealt with the external blood array.

A multitude of Divine-level Strongmen acted, removing the blood arrays one by one.

Jiang Yi's complexion turned extremely grim; he could feel the blood array being destroyed.

"I will kill you; none of you should expect to live!" Jiang Yi raged like a madman.

With the blood array gone, his hope of advancing to Super‑Divine Level was cut off.

He should have ascended to Super‑Divine Level 600 years ago, but due to various reasons he was forced to wait another 600 years, nearly falling as a result.

But now, clearly

the ascension was within reach, yet it was destroyed by others.

Jiang Yi's eyes flashed with intent, "I will forge you into a blood corpse, imprison your soul, and ensure you never reincarnate."

Jiang Chen said nothing, replying with a purple Divine‑Punishing Thunder.

Amid the roar, the isolated blood array swayed on the brink of collapse.

Jiang Yi, brimming with murderous intent, brandished the Demon‑slaying Sword, burst from the Sea of Thunder, and instantly struck Jiang Chen.

His clothing was torn, his skin bore scorch marks everywhere; clearly the Sea of Thunder had injured him, though not severely.

Jiang Chen remained unafraid; the Undead Legion appeared, followed immediately by the arrival of the Ku Lou Wang.

Soul Skill: Gather Power!

Jiang Chen activates the Gather Power skill, his attributes instantly rise to the extreme, and he simultaneously inherits all skills of the Summoned Entity.

Skill: Absolute Defense!

Absolute Defense activates, reducing all damage by 99%, and the remaining 1% must still be weakened by the soul skill 【Damage Transfer】.

Jiang Chen completed a series of actions in an instant, taking less than half a second.

"Die!" Jiang Yi roared ferociously, and the Demon‑slaying Sword sliced with a clang, its dark blade light tearing through space, almost devouring Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen did not dodge; the soul lock cannot be evaded.

The moment the sword light neared him, a purple Divine‑slaying Thunder shot out from the ancient outer Tower, striking Jiang Yi dead center.

It also locked Jiang Chen's soul, and Jiang Yi could not escape either.

Trading injury for injury, this fighting style, Jiang Chen would also use.

The sword light devours Jiang Chen, and the thunder light devours Jiang Yi.

After an initial faint clang, the sword light fell silent and thoughtless.

The Divine‑slaying Thunder, however, was earth‑shaking and sky‑rending, echoing throughout Fortress Nine,

This strike's Divine‑slaying Thunder power was far greater than before; many houses in Fortress Nine collapsed, and many of them were silently consumed by the thunder light.

The ground was annihilated, leaving no residue.

Jiang Yi was blasted by the thunder light, his body covered in wounds.

But he grew even more frantic, "Trading injuries with me, what are you, a 77‑level trash!"

Before the words faded, a sword light ignited on his body.

Ku Lou Wang acted, and the Undead Legion swarmed densely, their attacks landing on him in an instant.

The sky suddenly turned black; the Red Light of the blood formation and the brilliant golden light of the Eternal Great Wall were both shrouded by darkness.

The Undead World Projection descended, the Undead Gate opened, and the Undead Eye, blazing with fierce flames, opened and stared at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi let out a sudden Scream, "Soul Attack!"

The Red Light flickered, and a Curse descended.

Then flames erupted from his whole body, Lightning fell like raindrops, and Jiang Yi's face turned green.

"Poison‑type Attack!"

Jiang Yi exclaimed again, in disbelief.
