Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal-Chapter 306 - 248: Epiphany in the Grand Array, Survival Against All Odds

Chapter 306: Chapter 248: Epiphany in the Grand Array, Survival Against All Odds

Seeing that the grand array couldn’t be dispelled, Lin Chang’sheng could only try to break it and began examining the formation intently.

As with any grand array, there must be flaws and a way out; it’s impossible for there to be a truly perfect formation.

At least, not in the Immortal Relic Land.

"This array is absolutely ruthless. The longer it goes on, the heavier the pressure gets?"

A quarter-hour passed in a blink, but Lin Chang’sheng still hadn’t found any way to break this formation.

On the contrary, he felt the intense pressure growing even stronger; where it started at ten thousand pounds, now it had swelled to thirty thousand.

The overwhelming pressure forced him to continually drain his own magical power just to resist.

If this kept up, Lin Chang’sheng reckoned that in less than three hours, even if the array didn’t kill him, his magical power would be completely exhausted.

At that point, he’d have no strength left to fight Celestial Concealment.

Rumble—

All the structures inside the array collapsed under the tremendous weight, with countless citizens of the Beimu Immortal Race perishing within.

"Ahhh—"

As Lin Chang’sheng was searching for a way to break the array, some weaker cultivators were already being crushed to death, their bodies bursting into pools of blood.

Once the Qi Cultivators had all died, it didn’t take long before the Foundation Establishment Cultivators were next.

One by one, they gritted their teeth, desperately hoping the array would end soon.

But before the array’s energy ran dry, they were crushed to death as well.

After another half hour, even those at the Peak of Foundation Establishment cultivation met their end.

The pressure now fell upon the Golden Core Cultivators.

Though Lin Chang’sheng possessed Nascent Soul cultivation, at this rate, he wouldn’t hold out for two hours, let alone three.

"I need to grasp the essence of this array before I die, otherwise I’m done for!"

Lin Chang’sheng muttered inwardly, then forced himself to focus solely on studying the array, wasting no more time.

"Lin Chang’sheng, you might as well stop struggling. After you’re dead, Master Bi Xi will make good use of your body—you won’t have died in vain!"

Celestial Concealment Divine Master grinned wider as he saw the Foundation Establishment cultivators getting wiped out. At this pace, it’d be less than two hours before Lin Chang’sheng perished.

Celestial Concealment himself was immune to the array as long as he stayed within Cloud Concealment Tower; if he went outside, he’d be crushed too.

Having completed Master Bi Xi’s task, Celestial Concealment was certain he’d be well rewarded.

Once he entered the Burial Immortal Realm, his achievements would soar even further.

"Don’t get ahead of yourself!"

Lin Chang’sheng snapped back, then fell silent for fear of being distracted, his mind locked on deciphering the array.

"Let’s see exactly how you plan to break it,"

Celestial Concealment sneered coldly as Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t giving up.

Even Divinity Transformation powerhouses would have a hard time with this formation—what chance did a mere Nascent Soul cultivator have?

"Celestial Concealment, save me—"

Outside Cloud Concealment Tower, the Golden Core Cultivators with Celestial Concealment Divine Master began falling one after another, unable to withstand the array’s power.

Watching his allies die meant nothing to Celestial Concealment; he was unmoved.

Another half hour ticked by, all the Golden Core Cultivators fell, and now the crushing pressure was upon the Nascent Soul Cultivators.

"Celestial Concealment, I order you to end this array!"

Even the Beimu Immortal Emperor was overtaken by a powerful sense of dread.

As a Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he had no interest in dying an unclear death here.

"Your Majesty, this is at Master Bi Xi’s command. How would I dare defy him?"

Celestial Concealment replied unhurriedly, clearly not caring at all for the emperor’s fate.

"You—" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The Beimu Immortal Emperor nearly coughed up blood from rage.

But in the end, no one truly dared go against Master Bi Xi’s wishes.

Otherwise, the entire Beimu Immortal Race would be finished.

[Celestial One Turtle Shell Array – Entry Level!]

Just as the pressure threatened the very lives of the Nascent Soul cultivators, Lin Chang’sheng finally saw a notification flash across his internal panel.

A flood of information about the array rushed into Lin Chang’sheng’s mind.

Though just entry level, it granted Lin Chang’sheng quite a bit more insight into the formation.

"This array draws on the power of the Divine Turtle, suppressing all beneath it. Once trapped inside, there’s endless intensifying pressure, continuing until the Immortal Crystals are exhausted!"

"Immortal Crystals? Don’t tell me Celestial Concealment has Immortal Crystals on hand?"

Lin Chang’sheng was stunned. How could Celestial Concealment possibly have Immortal Crystals?

The only explanation was that he’d used spirit stones as a substitute for Immortal Crystals to activate the formation.

But how could spirit stones compare to Immortal Crystals? So the amplification rate was much slower.

If it were powered by Immortal Crystals, it could’ve killed a Nascent Soul cultivator in a single minute.

"If spirit stones are used in the array plate, as long as those stones are destroyed, the formation will break. The stones are very likely hidden within the Cloud Concealment Tower!"

Lin Chang’sheng mused to himself.

As long as he destroyed the Cloud Concealment Tower, the formation would collapse.

While Lin Chang’sheng’s body was immobilized, he could still use his divine sense to control his spirit treasures.

"Break for me!"

With a sweep, a blood-red blade aura flashed—a hundred feet of sword energy howled toward Cloud Concealment Tower.

BOOM—

Lin Chang’sheng expected that one strike would reduce the Cloud Concealment Tower to rubble.

But as the blade aura slammed into the tower, a formation barrier flared up outside, blocking the attack entirely.

"Xiaobai, space transmission! Get me inside the tower!"

Lin Chang’sheng used his divine thought to communicate with Xiaobai.

Xiaobai understood the urgency; the next instant, a burst of radiance wrapped around Lin Chang’sheng.

Lin Chang’sheng vanished from where he stood, appearing inside the Cloud Concealment Tower. The crushing pressure was instantly gone from his body.

"Seems my guess was right!"

Now inside the Cloud Concealment Tower, Lin Chang’sheng was even more convinced of his deduction.

He was in no rush to destroy the array—after all, only members of the Beimu Immortal Race were being crushed inside for now.

Even the Beimu Immortal Emperor was among them.

Their deaths were all the better for Lin Chang’sheng; it’d spare him the trouble of dealing with them later.

Once everyone in the array was dead, then breaking it would be perfect timing.

"S-Space Transmission Secret Technique? How... How did you do that?"

When Celestial Concealment saw Lin Chang’sheng suddenly teleport into the tower, his eyes went wide in disbelief.

This was space transmission magic! How did Lin Chang’sheng pull it off?

No one in the entire Immortal Relic Land had ever seen anyone use such terrifying divine power!

Did this mean someone from the Burial Immortal Realm was helping Lin Chang’sheng?

Otherwise, there was no way to explain how he knew a space secret technique.

"Want to learn? Kneel and call me master—maybe I’ll teach you!"

Lin Chang’sheng taunted Celestial Concealment.

He knew Celestial Concealment was proud as hell; there was no way he’d ever kneel to him.

"You’ve got a death wish! Time to die!"

Celestial Concealment’s face darkened. He’d thought Lin Chang’sheng would be obliterated by the formation, but now he’d managed to teleport inside the tower and escape death.

With the array failing to kill Lin Chang’sheng, the only option left was to fight to the death.

With a furious shout, Celestial Concealment brandished his long spear spirit treasure, lunging for Lin Chang’sheng once more.

"Come on!"

Seeing Celestial Concealment coming at him, Lin Chang’sheng was unafraid, gripping his upper grade spirit treasure and clashing with his foe head-on.

As the two battled, the entire Cloud Concealment Tower was destroyed in the struggle—countless array manuals, elixirs, all reduced to ashes in an instant.

Lin Chang’sheng had thought that by razing the tower, the array would dissipate.

But even with the tower leveled, the grand array remained intact.

In fact, with the Cloud Concealment Tower destroyed, the crushing pressure from the array came bearing down on Lin Chang’sheng and Celestial Concealment all over again.

"Don’t tell me... the spirit stone array plate isn’t inside the tower, but underfoot?"

Lin Chang’sheng was caught off guard. He’d almost screwed up—but at least, things were still under control.
