Painting of the Nine Immortals

It was already noon. Rich gold light was shedding down from above, but the coldness of the City of Sin could not be chased away.

Everyone held up their head and watched the six grand silhouettes. Fear was written all over their faces.

Even though they knew very well that the city was protected by the guarding array and those demons cannot enter within a short amount of time, they still shivered from fear.

After all, there was six whole completion leveled powerhouses. Why wouldn’t these young cultivators, who were completion level and lower, feel fearful?

At this moment, the six people were suspending in midair and were peering down at the entire City of Sin like gods.

All of them had a unique and extraordinary grandeur. They were standing there with a heavy stance comparable to a mountain. However, compared to Leader Lan, they were overshadowed.

This was because the leader was already at the peak of the completion level and was exuding a vibe similar to an ocean that suppressed the other five.

“The array is a good array. However, all arrays that stand in my way will soon turn into a pile of trash.”

Looking at the layer of translucent light, Elder Lan had an expression of disdain. He didn’t think anything of Ling Xian’s array.

“Haha, that’s right. Elder Lan is an array master. He can get rid of this array with one finger!”

“I will stay here and wait for the moment Elder Lan overpowers everyone and take control of the City of Sin!”

The completion leveled cultivators all opened their mouths to speak. Their words were all flattering and kind.

“Haha, you are right!”

Hearing these people’s flattery, Elder Lan was very satisfied. He smiled proudly and continued, “Watch me break this array right now!”

Then, he took out a palm-sized array board from his storage pouch. This item was completely black and had an eerily cold aura to it. The temperature of the place dropped down at once.

There are two types of array boards, one of them set up arrays, the other one breaks arrays. Without a doubt, this black array board was the type to break arrays.

Looking at the demonic array board, Elder Lan’s expression turned more and more arrogant, “Honestly speaking, I feel a little pitiful to be destroying this array. It’s too bad that it is blocking my way.”

Then, he chuckled and activated the array board.

HOMMMM!

Black light exploded and shot through the cloud. The board exploded with terror that clashed against the translucent layer of light.

Immediately, the entire sky was engulfed with a blinding amount of light. The vibration created from the clash was absolutely terrifying and shook up the entire space.

Everyone inside the City of Sin felt their heart raising up to their throats. They stared into the sky without blinking, terrified of witnessing something that would make them hopeless.

They knew very well that this array was the last protective umbrella for the City of Sin. Once broken, the City of Sin will fall into the hands of the invaders.

Different than their worrying hearts, Elder Lan was relaxed and at ease. He was certain that the array Ling Xian created will soon be destroyed by him.

“Everyone, open your eyes wide. Don’t miss the image that will soon pop up. After the light disappears, my array board will….”

Elder Lan was smiling confidently. Yet as he spoke, his voice suddenly paused.

Because the light in the sky had dissipated and the array that protected the entire City of Sin remained untouched. Instead, his array board had dimmed!

This scene made him choke back the words he was about to say, and also dragged him into a state of awe!

The several completion leveled cultivators and the citizens of the City of Sin watched with their eyes and mouths wide open!

Only after a long while, did a round of applause erupt from inside the city. Everyone’s confidence had been reignited.

The few elders had a look of disbelief. Elder Lan especially, could not accept this result.

He was extremely confident about his array skills and fully believed in his own array board. Yet now, not only is the layer of protective light completely fine, his array board had dimmed from that rebuttal. How could he accept this?

How is that possible? It’s impossible. My array board of destruction that I designed must be able to destroy this array.”

Elder Lan screamed, his face was full of disbelief.

At this, the other completion leveled cultivators all sighed. The reality was before their faces. How could they deny this?

But they were far too afraid to say this. It would be bad if they tossed themselves into the fire and get used as a punching bag by Elder Lan.

As time passed by, Elder Lan himself accepted this result. However, he didn’t give up on destroying the array.

“This time, this time I will for sure crush you!”

Elder Lan’s face darkened and decided to make another move. However, before he could use his array board again, he found the layer of protective light faded away like a ceasing wave.

Then, everyone heard a statement that was full of killer’s intent.

“You wound my subordinates and invade my land. You sure have a lion’s heart!”

As the voice carried over, a shadow wearing white arrived from afar. Within breaths, he arrived before Elder Lan.

“Look, it’s the true commander of the City of Sin. Thank god, he finally showed up!”

“Haha, it’s the young man who destroyed three families alone. Finally we no longer have to suffer!”

“I knew it! As long as we are alive, there is a way. As long as he is here, so what we are up against a few completion leveled powerhouse?!”

The City of Sin citizens all appeared extremely happy. They were looking at Ling Xian the same way they would look at a God, full of respect and passion.

Similar to how Huang Er felt, to them, Ling Xian was an omnipotent God. Therefore, at this moment, their confidence and hope had been reignited. They were sure that as long as he was here, he could slay all enemies.

“Hmm?”

Elder Lan had a slight frown on his face. He could see that Ling Xian belonged to the peak of the completion level. Therefore, his face froze for a second. However, remembering that he had people behind him and remembering where he came from, his astounding expression disappeared.

Disdain and contempt replaced it.

“Leader my @ss! So what I hurt your people and took your land? What can you do about me?”

At this, the people behind him chuckled.

“That’s right! We are taking advantage of you! The Qing Ming House has business to do. Whoever tries to stop us dies!”

“To have the Qing Ming House want your land is a great honor. If you know how to read the situation, then get the f!ck out of here. Or else you might lose your life as a result.”

“Haha, quickly, give us the City of Sin. If we are happy, we might let you leave here alive.”

The few completion leveled cultivators all chimed in. Other than disrespect on their faces, there was also a lack of reasonability and rationality.

“Well, well, well, how rude of the Qing Ming House.” Ling Xian’s expression dropped as his fury rose up to his head.

These people wounded Chu Zhong Tian and were trying to overtake this land that Ling Xian was the rightful owner of. And yet they had the audacity to call this invasion an honorable event. How unreasonable was this?

Nobody would be able to endure this!

Therefore, he felt far too lazy to waste more time with these people. He silently decided that these people deserve the death sentence.

“At this point, there is nothing more to say.”

Ling Xian glanced around coldly as his terrifying Qi began to pour out. Like an awakened monster, he repressed everything within miles!

“I will not allow my land to be tainted by others. I will not allow my people to be hurt by others. Since you have struck both of these rules, then pay with your lives.”
