Chapter 2389: Aggression
Of course, there was no such thing as a perfect battle matrix in the world, and any method had its own inherent weak points. However, to injure a supreme cultivator, like the Vajra Region Lord, with a single blow meant that it must have been something that possessed a great deterring force.
After the attack, the divine light circulated inside the battle matrix, and those fissures were quickly repaired. The expressions of the cultivators inside the battle matrix remained calm, and their breathing was stable. It didn’t seem like they were being affected much by this strike.
Buzz! At this moment, the divine light continued to flow. Above the firmament, the massive and boundless divine hammer was taking form once again. The figure of the ancient god stood tall between heaven and earth. Both of his hands picked up the divine hammer. A horrific authority of might fell from the sky as the hammer was raised again above the crowd. It was as if it might smash down again at any time.
And this time, it was still aimed at the Vajra Region Lord.
“Does everyone still wish to continue?” said an indifferent voice from the battle matrix. This hammer did not come down right away; it was meant to intimidate these relentless cultivators.
In the battle matrix, all the top figures were filled with divine light, and their aura was astounding. They had even resorted to divine items, but their eyes were somber and heavy. The Battle Matrix of the Rocks was more powerful than they expected. In the previous battle with the Lost Clan, the Battle Matrix of the Rocks was mainly used as a defense, but now, the battle matrix was gathering its strength for another attack.
Furthermore, it was the super-powerful attacking divine method, the Divine Hammer of the Protector. This divine method was the secret knowledge from Four Corner Village. Without a doubt, Ye Futian had taught it to the Lost Clan.
They stared at the white-haired man in the midst of the battle matrix with some coldness. Was this Ye Futian’s failsafe? Leveraging the strength from the Lost Clan’s Battle Matrix of the Rocks to discourage the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture so that they dared not act as they pleased.
“No matter how strong this battle matrix is, it will eventually collapse,” said a figure with a degree of coldness.
“But before the battle matrix disintegrates, perhaps one or two peak-level characters will go down with the battle matrix as well. I am afraid it might even directly lead to some major power shift in the future setup of the Divine Prefecture,” the voice inside the battle matrix continued, silencing everyone.
If the mighty offensive force of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks were to keep attacking a single individual without discernment, it did have the possibility of annihilating an existence at the giant-level. Furthermore, once such characters perished, it would inevitably mean the weakening of their clans. To say that this had the possibility of changing the pattern of power in Divine Prefecture was not an overstatement.
Any existence at this level was qualified to influence the future of Divine Prefecture.
Who dared to gamble on that?
For a time, the inside of the battle matrix became eerily quiet; only wisps of a terrifying coercion permeated the area. However, no one dared to make another move at the moment. Especially the Vajra Region Lord, who had just suffered a considerable traumatic injury, felt a sense of vague fear. If the divine hammer above the sky continued to pummel him without any concern, it could really drive him into a desperate situation. Although he had not yet reached his most powerful state, what about the Battle Matrix of the Rocks? No one knew whether the current attack was already its ultimate state or not.
After all, the cultivators from the Lost Clan that were inside the battle matrix could potentially be stronger. Back then, in that battle at the Lost Clan, the cultivators in the final battle matrix attacked in spite of themselves, thus increasing the power of the battle matrix by leaps and bounds.
The most likely outcome of continued combat was a lose-lose scenario for both.
Finally, these top figures from the Divine Prefecture were silent. Although their aura was still blooming, the sharpness had been greatly reduced. It seemed that they had lost the momentum they held previously. Obviously, they no longer had the determination to take Ye Futian down.
Ultimately, no one could guarantee if they would be the ones on the other end of the hammer when it finally smashed down.
“If you are dead set on continuing with the fighting, I’m afraid no one can predict the outcome. Please consider it carefully,” the voice in the battle matrix spoke up again. “Although Ye Futian is in possession of divine items, all of you are from the Ancient God Clan, and you know this very well. Why bother making up excuses to disguise your real intent to plunder?”
This voice reverberated throughout the void, echoing in the battle matrix. The aura from some of these people gradually retracted as the divine light dissipated. Clearly, some had decided to give up altogether.
Seeing that some of them had given up, other cultivators suddenly reconsidered the battle matrix that was up high. Although they were loath to let it go like this, they understood that today’s matter had to stop here. It would be challenging to take down Ye Futian given everything that had transpired unless every one of these top figures from the Divine Prefecture could unite to deal with him. Anything short of their full determination was not enough, as none of them had the bravado to be the first one to lead the charge.
Gradually, other cultivators also retracted their auras, including the Vajra Region Lord himself. Witnessing this development, the divine hammer that was suspended above everyone’s head gradually dissipated and vanished. The battle matrix disbanded as all the cultivators from the Lost Clan were left standing in its place. Ye Futian had stopped playing the guqin as well. He looked down into the area below.
Over yonder, there was another major battle, and the scene of destruction was extremely frightening. Nonetheless, it was currently at a stalemate, as one side had not been able to overcome the other.
No wonder he’s the demon overlord from thousands of years ago, the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture secretly marveled in their hearts. The Lord of Tianyan City’s combat effectiveness was absolute and doubtless. He was a super existence in armor-making, but all types of cultivation were interconnected. When his armor-making reached the topmost level, it was the same with his combat effectiveness. Not to mention, he had a most terrifying divine weapon in his possession.
Even so, it still failed to repel Old Demon Tuntian, which was enough to demonstrate the terrifying nature of this type of demon overlord.
The battle above subsided. The Lord of Tianyan City did not pursue the matter and eventually stopped fighting. His gaze swept to the sky above, and the sharpness of it was unmistakable. All the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture had merged their power together, and they couldn’t even take down a Renhuang in the Seventh-Realm.
His sharp eyes glanced at the other cultivators from the Divine Prefecture as he let out a cold huff. “Let’s get out of here,” he said.
The cultivators of Tianyan City gathered around him, preparing to leave en masse.
“The Original Realm is the territory of the Divine Prefecture. The Heavenly Mandate Academy colluded with the devil overlord of the Devil World. They are unworthy of remaining in the land of Divine Prefecture.” When he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and infinite divine light fell upon the land below.
The attacks were swift and violent. They descended upon the Heavenly Mandate Academy in an instant.
Boom, boom, boom… In an instant, the Heavenly Mandate Academy crumbled like crazy under those terrible attacks. Although Ye Futian had already sent those in the academy who were weaker in cultivation than the Ziwei Segmentum, there were some Renhuang who had been left behind. They retreated frantically, but some were too slow and were buried along with the ruin that was the Heavenly Mandate Academy.
In a single turning of the mind, that magnificent academy was once again destroyed.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Academy watched all this in the sky above. Though their cultivation level was high enough, who could stop the attacks from the Lord of Tianyan City himself? Even before they had time to react, all they saw was the academy in a pile of rubble!
