C410 Sealing the Mountain(2)

A sword light, over 500 feet long, enveloped both Woo Zhengyang and the entrance to the Profound Heaven Sect.

Woo Zhengyang had anticipated that the two wouldn't give up easily, so the Ice Crystal Fire Hall was always ready. As the sword light approached, the hall rapidly expanded, positioning itself in front of Zhengyang.

Seeing the Ice Crystal Fire Hall appear, the man's gaze grew serious. He remembered how Liao Qinghua had suffered because of this very thing. With that thought, the sword light in his hand became even more solid.

"Boom..."

After a thunderous crash, an unexpected scene unfolded. The once formidable Ice Crystal Fire Hall was knocked away as if it had lost its former strength.

As the hall flew off, Woo Zhengyang's figure vanished from where he stood.

"This kid's tricks are useless now! Think you can run? You won't get far!" the man exclaimed, launching himself into the air in pursuit of the hall. The female warrior followed closely, charging into the Profound Heaven Sect's entrance.

"I warned you, those who trespass into the Profound Heaven Sect will die!" Woo Zhengyang's voice echoed from within the sect.

The crowd was speechless. Despite his hasty retreat, he still boasted so arrogantly. As many hesitated, wondering whether to follow into the Profound Heaven Sect to see the outcome, a rainbow-colored beam shot from the peak of Heavenly Death Peak into the sky...

As the vibrant pillar of light shot straight into the sky, the sun and moon seemed to dim, and the entire sky was painted with a dazzling array of colors. Soon after, ninety-nine rainbow bridges emerged from the light pillar, arching gracefully over the Profound Heaven Sect.

Sheets of light cascaded from the rainbow bridges, connecting with each other. In just a few breaths, the entire Profound Heaven Sect was enveloped in a radiant curtain of colors.

The sudden transformation left the onlookers dumbfounded. It took a while before anyone realized that all of this unfolded after the two martial experts entered the Profound Heaven Sect's area.

This meant that Woo Zhengyang's recent hasty retreat was likely intentional. He aimed to lure those two experts into the sect's domain and then activate this formation.

Although the crowd couldn't determine the grade of this formation, its impressive display was enough to show it was extraordinary. Given Woo Zhengyang's known cunning nature, everything he did was meticulously planned. If nothing unexpected happened, those two martial experts might not find a way out...

After defeating Liao Qinghua with a single strike and now trapping two martial experts, Woo Zhengyang once again amazed everyone, providing new fodder for conversations over coffee and dinner.

Profound Heaven Sect, outer martial practicing field.

Woo Zhengyang stood on the life-and-death platform, reflecting on the past few months with a mix of emotions. Below the platform lay two experts at Martial King level, their faces still showing signs of frustration and anger.

Once the mountain protecting array was activated, it needed a trigger to fully operate. Although Heavenly Death Peak remained the core, Woo Zhengyang, as the one who set up the array, had a spiritual connection with it. As long as he was within the array, he could activate it.

While rushing over, Woo Zhengyang contemplated how to effectively harness the power of the mountain protecting array. In his last battle with Liao Qinghua, despite the formidable strength of the Ice Crystal Fire Hall, he couldn't keep Qinghua from escaping due to his own speed limitations. The array had similar constraints, unable to even move simply. The only solution was to lure them into the array.

This led to the scenes unfolding at the entrance of the Profound Heaven Sect. When Woo Zhengyang drew the two Martial King experts into the sect and they saw the towering beam of light, they realized something was wrong, but it was too late.

Activating the array took only a few breaths. By the time they tried to turn back, they found themselves blocked by a colorful light curtain. Without hesitation, the two began attacking the radiant barrier.

However, the array of the Profound Heaven Sect isn’t something that can be broken with brute force. If there were many experts at the Martial King level, they might have a chance to push the mountain-protecting array to its limits with a combined full-force attack. But there are only two of them.

The main issue is that they’re not outside the array; they’re inside it. The mountain-protecting array of the Profound Heaven Sect is incredibly intricate. Even a basic understanding of it surpasses ordinary formations. This array not only combines offense and defense but also has a suppressive ability. Under Woo Zhengyang’s control, the cultivation levels of the two individuals are steadily being reduced. The man, initially at the mid-stage of the Essence Shaking Stage, is forcibly suppressed to the mid-stage of the Reality Condensing Stage, while the woman is pushed down to the early stage of the Reality Condensing Stage.

Unless they have the same deep understanding of the array’s intricacies as Woo Zhengyang, breaking through that light curtain is impossible. After a few attempts, they realize their cultivation is being gradually suppressed, which makes them more desperate, but it’s all in vain.

Eventually, with faces drained of hope, they stop. They know they’ve truly lost this time. With their cultivation suppressed, Woo Zhengyang, who can control the array, can easily deal with them. Even Nie Fengyu and Uncle Fu, whom they had tormented for so long, are now beyond their ability to handle.
