Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

At first, they refused to believe Lin Chang’sheng could annihilate the elders of Black Tiger Hall with a formation, but now their cheeks stung with shame.

It was as if the scene before them had viciously slapped them in the face.

Yet, in their hearts, they couldn’t help but admire Lin Chang’sheng. This youth hailed from the Abandoned Land, and yet he understood how to arrange such a terrifying grand array.

If he were to learn various immortal techniques in the Immortal Realm, his future achievements would be truly limitless.

But Lin Chang’sheng cared little for their thoughts; destroying Black Tiger Hall benefited both him and everyone else immensely.

Within the grand array, cultivators perished one after another, and dense waves of spiritual energy surged constantly from the array hub, pouring into Lin Chang’sheng’s body.

As Lin Chang’sheng continued his refinement, he felt his cultivation skyrocketing wildly.

In the blink of an eye, he stepped into the late stage of Divinity Transformation, faintly sensing signs of a breakthrough.

"Thirty thousand cultivators—more than enough to help me break through to Void Refining!"

Lin Chang’sheng cried out in excitement.

Although the array couldn’t transfer all of the fallen cultivators’ cultivation to Lin Chang’sheng, even a tenth—or a hundredth—accumulated over time, was enough for Lin Chang’sheng to surpass a major bottleneck.

"You little bastard—do you dare face me in a life-and-death duel? Using a grand array—what kind of skill is that?"

Zhu Hu roared at Lin Chang’sheng, hoping to provoke him into tearing down the array. Then, even if Black Tiger Hall couldn’t destroy Moon Worship Manor today, at least Zhu Hu could escape.

If he survived, there would always be a chance for revenge later.

Otherwise, if this continued, even he might perish within the grand array.

Hearing Zhu Hu’s words, Lin Chang’sheng’s lips curled into a faint smile.

"Do you think I’m a fool? Or are you just overestimating your own intelligence? If I can kill you with the grand array, why would I bother dueling you? You massacred my cultivators from the Lower Realm—today, even if you die a hundred times, you won’t be wronged!"

Lin Chang’sheng had no intention of letting Zhu Hu go.

This brute was addicted to slaughter; any Lower Realm cultivator who ended up in his hands would never escape alive.

Killing him today was justice for the people!

"You little beast, don’t get cocky! I’ll break your array—and when I escape, I’ll take your damned head!"

Zhu Bao lashed out furiously. Since his foe refused a decisive duel, the only option was to shatter the formation.

Every array has a method to break it; he believed this one was no exception.

So long as he found the array plate, he could destroy the whole thing.

Zhu Bao knew a bit about formations, but not much; finding the array plate’s location was easier said than done.

Moon Worship Manor was spread across a hundred mountains, but only three concealed the array plate beneath them.

The odds of finding it were extremely slim.

Besides, endless flames roared beneath the earth—if those flames touched you, they’d never die out. Once your primordial power was drained, the fiery blazes would pierce your body and kill you.

"I look forward to it!"

Lin Chang’sheng sneered coldly. They really thought they could break the array? Wishful thinking!

"Second Brother, do you really know how to crack this formation?"

Zhu Hu asked in astonishment; he knew nothing about arrays.

"Big Brother, that whelp’s holed up on Moon Worship Peak. The array plate must be beneath the peak—destroy the plate, and the array collapses!"

Zhu Bao guessed aloud.

"You’d better be careful! The power of those flames is not to be underestimated—once touched by them, they’re hard to put out!"

Zhu Hu warned, then waved his hand and pulled a golden armor out of his storage space.

"Wear this Golden Armor Saint Robe—it’s impervious to blades, bullets, water and fire. It can withstand the power of fiery flames!"

With that, Zhu Hu handed the treasure armor to Zhu Bao.

Zhu Bao didn’t hesitate—grabbing the armor, he charged straight for the base of Moon Worship Peak.

As Lin Chang’sheng watched, his mouth twisted in a cold smile.

He knew all along they’d think this way—the array plate wasn’t under Moon Worship Mountain at all.

Moreover, Moon Worship Mountain was actually the array hub; once you approached, your body would be torn apart by a gigantic suction force.

"Ha—!"

Arriving beneath Moon Worship Mountain, Zhu Bao braced himself and swung his Yanyue Saber, unleashing a devastating slash.

BOOM—

The powerful blade aura crashed into the earth, thunderous explosions echoing as the ground trembled violently and boulders scattered everywhere.

When the chaos settled, a massive chasm, a hundred yards deep, gaped in the ground, with streaks of light flickering within.

Zhu Bao glanced inside, mistaking it for the array plate’s location, and leaped in without hesitation.

But as soon as he entered, he realized something was wrong—a powerful suction assaulted him. The force so overwhelming that he couldn’t resist; he was relentlessly drawn in, no matter how he circulated his primordial power, unable to escape the array hub’s grip.

"Big—Big Brother, save me—!"

Panic seized Zhu Bao and he cried out in terror.

Zhu Hu wanted to save him, but his strength was nowhere near enough.

If he went in, he’d be dead for sure—this formation was terrifying beyond belief.

BANG—

In the next instant, Zhu Bao was ripped apart by the immense suction, shredded until finally he dissolved into a mist of blood.

Everything he carried—his Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure and the Golden Armor Saint Robe—dropped before Lin Chang’sheng.

Zhu Bao’s lifetime cultivation transformed into a surge of spiritual energy that Lin Chang’sheng absorbed into his body.

"You know nothing of arrays, and yet you try to break one? What an arrogant fool! Zhu Hu, you’re next!"

After absorbing Zhu Bao’s cultivation, Lin Chang’sheng spoke coldly.

Then he instantly unleashed the grand array’s divine might, bombarding Zhu Hu with celestial thunder and fiery flames.

RUMBLE, RUMBLE—

A myriad of celestial thunderbolts, under Lin Chang’sheng’s control, rained down upon Zhu Hu’s position.

Zhu Hu was a battle-hardened veteran; he quickly retreated to dodge the attack.

The force of celestial thunder was not to be underestimated.

But even as he dodged the thunder’s fury, the flames beneath the earth, under Lin Chang’sheng’s command, morphed into chains of iron, snaking toward Zhu Hu to bind him.
