Chapter 388: Breaking the Array
Dragon Demon Palace headquarters.
"Black Dragon, I have long said not to recklessly provoke the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy."
"What should we do now?"
One of the two great titans of the Dragon Demon Palace, Supreme White Dragon, spoke with a tone of helplessness; as a moderate, he had always advocated for the peaceful unification of the Beicang Continent.
Moreover, in his view, the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy was reclusive and non-competitive; there would be no problem for their Dragon Demon Palace to bypass them, and they would still remain the hegemonic power of the Beicang Continent.
Rather than fighting the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy to the death, it would be better to save that energy to improve their strength, conquer other continents, and one day, liberate their homeland.
The Beicang Continent was only famous because it was home to one of the Five Great Academies, the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy; the surrounding continents might lack such fame, but their resources were not much worse, so why fight the other side to the death?
Now look at this, the headquarters has been surrounded by others once again; although the existence of the Great Ancient Array meant the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy could not do much to them, in the end...
It was quite embarrassing!
It is just a pity...
Supreme White Dragon sighed inwardly; nowadays, apart from him, the high-level members of the Dragon Demon Palace were all of one mind to fight the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy to the death, and his individual strength was simply unable to change the general trend.
Regarding the advice of Supreme White Dragon, Supreme Black Dragon snorted coldly and said indifferently:
"White Dragon, you are too cowardly."
"There can only be one master of the Beicang Continent, and that is our Dragon Demon Palace!"
"So what if they have Beiming Longkun?"
A trace of fanaticism appeared on Supreme Black Dragon's face, "As long as we can activate the power of the Great Sumeru Magic Pillar, everything will be ours!"
"Sigh!" Supreme White Dragon sighed helplessly; you fool, a vicious weapon like the Great Sumeru Magic Pillar is not something that can be controlled so easily; if it were truly that simple, that sect would not have ended up with its lineage destroyed.
However, he wisely chose not to stop him on the spot; in order to ensure his brother would not suffer the consequences, it was better for him to watch from the sidelines.
"I only hope you do not forget our original intention," Supreme White Dragon warned at the end.
Black Dragon seemed to have thought of something, his expression turned ugly, and he roared: "I am doing this for our original goal!"
"If we want to go back, we must possess powerful strength!"
Supreme Black Dragon never wanted to experience that kind of terrifying scene again in his life; his frantic pursuit of strength was also for this reason.
Supreme White Dragon did not speak; he gave Supreme Black Dragon a meaningful look, then closed his mouth and said nothing more. Whether it was right or wrong, it was all in one's heart.
With the two leaders confronting each other, Supreme Yellow Dragon and the others on the side did not dare to interrupt at all, and could only tremble on the sidelines.
However, without exception, they all ignored the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy army outside the gate.
The initial defeat of Beiming Longkun had greatly boosted the confidence of everyone in the Dragon Demon Palace; they figured there would be no change this time either. Once the array was opened, they only needed to be responsible for fully driving the array.
Outside, Xiao Han and the others looked at the Dragon Demon Palace headquarters with cold light in their eyes.
"Lord Beiming, you can try attacking first; I need to observe the operation of the array," Xiao Han suggested.
This was standard procedure; Beiming Longkun had no objections and nodded in agreement.
Immediately, his expression changed abruptly. Suddenly, the original bald old man in linen robes transformed into a ten-thousand-foot giant kun with wings, its front dragon claws reaching out and slamming fiercely into the Dragon Demon Palace headquarters.
"Boom!"
A violent collision sound rang out; the massive, seemingly indestructible dragon claw suddenly halted its attack, locked in a stalemate with a transparent light shield.
"Hum!"
With the first strike failing, the giant claw retracted again, followed by a series of airtight attacks; the immense momentum brought about by the dual claws resounded through heaven and earth.
"Hoo!"
After a set of combo strikes, Beiming Longkun temporarily stopped his movements; high-intensity attacks were not very friendly to an old man like him.
At this moment, the mockery of Supreme Black Dragon suddenly came from within the array.
"Hahaha..."
"Beiming Longkun, you are about to be buried, yet you are still meddling in these affairs?"
"It would be better to defect to my Dragon Demon Palace; this seat might even appoint you as a palace-guarding divine beast."
This was followed by a series of mocking laughter.
To this, Beiming Longkun did not feel the slightest bit of anger; if this level of mockery could make him lose his mind, then the tens of thousands of years of experience of a divine beast would have been lived in vain.
However, not being angry did not mean he did not care. He turned his head to look at Xiao Han, who was fiddling with something on the side, and asked expectantly:
"How is it?"
"Have you found the flaw?"
Beiming Longkun did not even need Xiao Han to break the array; as long as the flaw was found, he was confident he could directly destroy this array through that flaw.
Hearing Beiming Longkun's words, Xiao Han busied himself for a while longer before finally stopping his movements.
"This defensive array does have some tricks to it."
The expressions of the others dimmed; could it be that even he could not do it? Taicang was already prepared to see Xiao Han's backup plan; since the other party spoke with such certainty, he did not believe it was without foundation.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Han turned his head and saw a large group of people staring at him with burning gazes, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
"This array is still within the range of my Spirit Power."
As he spoke, he threw out a palm-sized jade disk, which was caught by Beiming Longkun.
"Could this be the Array Disk you developed, sir?" the latter could not help but say with joy.
Xiao Han nodded, and the others curiously crowded around upon seeing this; after all, such things were still very novel.
"However, due to cultivation level reasons, this Array Disk requires Lord Beiming to provide Spirit Power to support its operation."
"I believe this is a small matter for Lord Beiming, right?" Xiao Han said with a chuckle.
Beiming Longkun smiled proudly, "Please rest assured, Elder Xiao."
Just kidding, in terms of total Spirit Power alone, he alone could suppress everyone in the Dragon Demon Palace.
"The operation method of this array is completely opposite to that of the Dragon Demon Palace array."
"The moment it is activated, it will directly attach to the defensive array of the Dragon Demon Palace and operate in reverse."
"Hehe..."
"This defensive array of the Dragon Demon Palace..." Xiao Han smiled with ill intent.
"Within three breaths, it will be completely paralyzed!"
"That is what I say."
"Good! This old man shall test it right now." Hearing Xiao Han's confident voice, Beiming Longkun could not help but feel his heart grow warm, and he immediately arrived before the great array.
The clueless Black Dragon Supreme continued to mock, "Beiming Longkun, are you still not prepared to give up?"
Only the White Dragon, standing to the side, sensed the faint excitement radiating from Beiming Longkun; an ominous premonition lingered in his heart, and he quietly shuffled toward the direction of the Great Sumeru Magic Pillar.
"Hmph." Beiming Longkun let out a cold snort, holding the Array Disk in his hand as his surging Spirit Power poured into it instantly.
"Hum!"
In an instant, countless runes flew out from the Array Disk, spreading directly toward the continuously operating Defense Ling Array.
"Click, click..."
The crowd seemed to hear the sound of something jamming, and then...
Under the surprised gazes of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy crowd and the horrified gazes of the Dragon Demon Palace members, that Defense Ling Array which had blocked Beiming Longkun shattered with a boom, turning into dots of light that scattered across the earth.
"Hahaha!"
"Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy..."
"Kill!"
Just as the people of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy raised their weapons and stared with ill intent at the completely stunned members of the Dragon Demon Palace, a white dragon shadow suddenly darted out, and within a few leaps, it quickly vanished from everyone's field of vision.
"White Dragon!"
The battlefield was deathly silent.
"This is..."
