Chapter 1055 - Refine Them
The Ten-Sided Annihilation Array flared outward, sealing every direction and turning the street into an unbreakable prison. Its power promised to erase anything trapped inside.
Apart from the three patriarchs who remained farther back with a small contingent, the array trapped the elders of the three clans inside its glowing barrier.
"What is this spiritual array? It feels powerful!" gasped several onlookers, unable to grasp what they were witnessing.
More knowledgeable observers, however, understood at once.
"What a terrifying formation, It draws boundless power from the very heavens and earth," murmured elders from the Dragon Emperor Academy and the Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy. "As long as its users live, the array will sustain itself until everyone inside is dead."
Their greatest question was how Liu Wuxie had managed to deploy such a marvel.
Three elders accompanying Zhao Chao could only shake their heads in response.
"Young Master, we're too late," they said with bitter smiles. Had they sided with the Heavenly Dao Society sooner, they might have stood within that array instead of outside it.
Zhao Chao returned the look with a wry smile of his own. He had urged his father to ally earlier, but hesitation had cost them the chance. Now, the Jiang, Yu, and Shen clans held that honor. With this one formation, those clans could carve a lasting place in the Central Plains.
"There's still a chance," Zhao Chao whispered, eyes fixed on the shimmering walls.
During the recent commerce fair, the Nine Profound Sect had already extended goodwill to the Heavenly Dao Society at Liu Wuxie's request. By helping the Society, they had secured future partnership in alchemy and talisman trade. Even without a place in the array, their bond would only deepen from this day forward.
