Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 985 - 402: Battle? (Part 2)

....Countless cultivators and Earth Immortals, gazing at Lin Xuankong and the thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts in the sky, felt as if they were dreaming.

If not for everyone seeing those thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, if not for everyone's fervent discussions about those thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, at least ninety percent of the cultivators and Earth Immortals might think they had fallen under the illusion technique of the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo, seeing nothing but illusions!

Originally faced with the overwhelming presence of the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo, countless cultivators and Earth Immortals present were all on edge, fearing that the forty-plus layers of nine-fold Grand Arrays imposed by the Cyan-forehead Qilin wouldn't withstand the attacks of this famed old demon of hundreds of thousands of years. But now, looking at those thirty-six dazzling Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, amidst the fluctuations of Immortal Yuan, everyone felt their hearts filled with hope, as if they could already see the glimmer of victory in this battle, envisioning the hope of victory in the current fight, and more importantly, seeing the hope of victory for the Human Race in this Immortal-Demon War!

Yet, how could these cultivators and Earth Immortals within the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and Spiritual Crane Immortal City know that what Lin Xuankong possesses now is far more than just thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts? In the few years after returning from the Boundaryless Mountain Range, alongside his cultivation, he collaborated with the artifact refining genius Xiao Xiuyi to craft an endless array of immortal artifacts!

The number of Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts had already reached several thousand, even the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh-Grade Immortal Artifacts were abundantly plentiful! And Xiao Xiuyi's refining target had long shifted to crafting Eighth and Ninth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, so in recent years, he had been exploring the crafting of Eighth and Ninth-Grade Immortal Artifacts. Although he hadn't succeeded yet, some promising aspects had emerged. Were it not for this, the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh-Grade Immortal Artifacts Lin Xuankong possessed would already be countless!

Moreover, in Lin Xuankong's view at this moment, with the defense from dozens of layers of the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array, he has no need to entirely use all the trump cards he owns... which means that the power displayed by the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo, seemingly an extinction demon to everyone, is not yet enough to force Lin Xuankong to go all out....

In the sky,

Guang Ling'Er and Guang Yu'Er, two true disciples of the Guangqing Immortal Sect, stared blankly at the thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts around them, feeling as if in a dream.

However, as true disciples of the Guangqing Immortal Sect and Earth Immortals of the Ninth-Grade Perfection realm, after their Heart Spirits lost control for a moment, they gradually regained their composure.

Guang Yu'Er glanced at the composed Lin Xuankong beside her and then at the thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord with a massive Demon Body and overwhelming Demonic Qi high in the sky. Her eyes suddenly revealed a flash of excitement and anticipation.

Mr. Lin has already utilized thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts. If there were a strongest Immortal Lord-level powerhouse present, relying on these Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts would surely defeat the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo effortlessly. But can Mr. Lin himself defeat the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo with these thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts?

If Mr. Lin can defeat the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo with these thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, then he would be the only Earth Immortal of the Human Race in countless eras to defeat a strongest Immortal Lord-level powerhouse at the Third-Grade Realm!

If that's truly the case, she could witness firsthand this unprecedented achievement!

Thinking of this, Guang Yu'Er's heart began to pound, her eyes filled with excitement and anticipation, even her hands couldn't help but clench into small fists, slightly shaking.

Beside her, Lin Xuankong was unaware that the true disciple of the Guangqing Immortal Sect next to him was anticipating a battle of unparalleled magnificence,

He looked up at the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord who had halted his attack in the sky above, with a touch of battle intent gradually surfacing in his eyes. Then, he gently raised his right hand, and instantly, the thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts emitted an even brighter spiritual light, a layer of light membrane covered with countless array patterns, appeared outside the other Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array's light membrane.

Seeing this,

The Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo, who had eyes full of fear and greed, immediately had his red vertical pupil in his gaze narrow. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Before it could react further,

A resonating long cry echoed across the sky above the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array set up by Lin Xuankong with thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts,

At the same time, a Spiritual Crane with an Immortal Body and pure white feathers, measuring over twenty thousand feet, appeared. This array spirit formed by the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array arranged with thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts was not only similar in size to the array spirit of the previous Annihilation Demon Buddha's Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array but also extremely refined in its Immortal Body, emitting fluctuations extremely intense, far stronger than the Immortal Yuan fluctuation emitted by the previous array spirit!

The Immortal Body and fluctuation of this Spiritual Crane over twenty thousand feet, almost a match for the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo! One must know, the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo is genuinely a strongest Immortal Lord-level powerhouse, a famed expert with countless years of cultivation, and one of the elites among the seventy-two Demon Lords of the Profound Yin Demon Sect!

Normally, the array spirit summoned by the Nine-Layered Grand Array would be akin to an Earth Immortal or Demon General of the Ninth-Layer Perfection, vastly inferior to an Immortal Lord-level powerhouse! Yet the power of the Grand Array is often closely related to the hub used, and Lin Xuankong's newly arranged Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array was constructed with Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts as hubs, naturally distinct from other Immortal Sects whose hubs are formed with magical artifacts, markedly different from arrays set up with First-Grade Immortal Artifacts, and equally distinct from arrays formed with Third-Grade Immortal Artifacts!

However,

This array spirit is only in its initial form!

Lin Xuankong has yet to unleash the various talents of his Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate. If unleashed, even if the refinement level of the Immortal Body and Immortal Yuan fluctuation of this Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Array Spirit doesn't change much, the power it can exert in attacks and self-detonation would certainly be terrifying to the extreme!

"Purlo, will you come forth for a battle?

This spirit is named the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Spirit, capable of a fight with you!"

After summoning this Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Spirit and speaking, Lin Xuankong's eyes flickered with vibrant brilliance.

In recent years, he has invested almost all his time in studying the path of arrays, artifact refining, and cultivation. Ever since he engraved the array patterns onto many immortal artifacts, he has yet to unleash the power of an array spirit summoned by a grand array formed with Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts!

Because Lin Xuankong doesn't need to test to be absolutely certain that a Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array constructed with Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts as hubs is something no ordinary Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal can withstand. As a disciple of Immortal Lord Luoshui Yaan Mingyu, it wouldn't make sense to challenge his own master, having his master Immortal Lord Luoshui test the power of his own array. Thus, Lin Xuankong has always been unaware of the power of his Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts and Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Spirit!

The Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo before him is undoubtedly the most formidable opponent Lin Xuankong has encountered thus far and the best subject to test the power of the Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts and Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Spirit!

Upon hearing Lin Xuankong's words,

The entire Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and Spiritual Crane Immortal City suddenly quieted down; everyone held their breath, intensely gazing at the Thirty-six Tribulation Demon Lord Purlo in the sky.

Even the Cyan-forehead Qilin, typically fond of clamoring, quieted down, with its huge eyes filled with excitement and hope, looking at Lin Xuankong, and then somewhat enviously at the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array Spirit!

Meanwhile, the two true disciples of the Guangqing Immortal Sect, Guang Ling'Er and Guang Yu'Er, stopped channeling their Immortal Yuan and equally raised their heads in excitement and anticipation. Both knew that if this battle before them erupted, they would be utterly unable to participate or influence it as Earth Immortals of the Ninth-Grade Perfection Level!
