Chapter 466: Challenge (2)

Just as the two of them were silent, Fairy Chi Yao’s voice sounded in Chen Daoxuan’s ear.
“Brother Zhou, Young Sect Master is looking for me.”
Hearing this, Zhou Mubai hurriedly cupped his hands and said,””Brother Chen, please go ahead.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded. His body blurred and he disappeared from Zhou Mubai’s sight.
Seeing Chen Daoxuan teleport away, Zhou Mubai couldn’t help but sigh.
With Chen Daoxuan’s identity, strength, and potential, the gap between the two of them was destined to grow bigger and bigger. Now, he could still shamelessly call Chen Daoxuan Brother Chen. Perhaps after a few years, he could only call him Supreme.
However, the cultivation world was so realistic and cruel.
There were many examples of fellow daoists today becoming seniors in the future. Zhou Mubai didn’t feel too emotional.
He and Chen Daoxuan did not have a teacher, and they were not in-laws. It did not seem difficult for him to call the other party senior.
Chen Daoxuan didn’t know what Zhou Mubai was thinking.
At this moment.
He had already gathered with the seven Golden Cores led by Fairy Chi Yao.
“Perfected Chen!”
“Perfected Chen!”
“Chen…”
Just like last time, when they saw Chen Daoxuan, all the cultivators took the initiative to greet him with cupped hands. Chen Daoxuan returned the greeting one by one.
Then, he looked at Fairy Chi Yao, who was frowning, and asked,””General and everyone are frowning. Did you encounter some trouble?”
Hearing this.
Fairy Chi Yao extended a white finger and pointed at the Southern Mountain’s City below the immortal boat, saying,””General Chen, please wait and see.”
Chen Daoxuan looked in the direction Chi Yao was pointing.
Just like what he had seen before, an array formation completely enveloped the Southern Mountain’s City.
However, as the commander of the Southern Army and the main person in charge of recovering the Southern Mountain’s City, Fairy Chi Yao had more comprehensive information than Chen Daoxuan.
“The Southern Mountain’s City’s original defensive grand array was a Tier 5 array formation. But now, it became a Tier 6 grand array!”
Fairy Chi Yao said worriedly.
“Tier 6 formation?”
Chen Daoxuan himself was only a Tier 4 array master. He only saw that the array in front of him was extraordinary. He did not expect that it was actually the same grade as the array in Hall Master Huyan’s dojo.
He frowned.”
Hearing this.
Before Fairy Chi Yao could say anything, another Golden Core in the crowd took the initiative to say,””Perfected Chen, you might not know this, but Level Six Array Formation Masters are extremely rare even among Nascent Souls, let alone Golden Cores.
The path of array formations, starting from Tier 3, became extremely difficult.
The breakthrough from the fourth to the fifth level has trapped countless cultivators. As for the sixth level array master, as far as 1 know, there are only a few in the entire Infinite Star Sea.”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but feel like he had met a soulmate.
Ever since his array formation path broke through to Tier 4, even with the help of the insight function of the Primordial Dao Enlightenment Scripture, it was very difficult for him to continue advancing.
At first, Chen Daoxuan attributed it to his lack of cultivation. However, after breaking through to the Purple Mansion Stage, he still discovered that the speed of improvement in array formations did not improve much.
It was only when Hall Master Huyan had explained the key to the Dao of Array Formation to him that Chen Daoxuan understood that the Dao of Array Formation required a cultivator’s comprehension ability on one hand, and the most important thing was to learn from the strengths of various schools.
In other words, if he wanted to improve on the path of array formations, he needed to see, learn, and think more. He must remember not to work behind closed doors.
The so-called more reading was to come into contact with more array formation inheritances.
These array formation inheritances contained all kinds of array formations and theories. By absorbing this knowledge, Chen Daoxuan’s attainments in array formations could make a breakthrough.
An array master with extremely high attainments would definitely have a large number of array formation arrangements stored in his mind.
A powerful array master might not be strong in battle, but if he was given the opportunity to set up a large array and borrow the power of heaven and earth, the other party could even easily kill an enemy of a higher realm.
This was the current situation.
The enemy troops in the Southern Mountain’s City were defending the formation. Even if they had the absolute advantage in strength, it would be difficult to break through this turtle shell.
Chen Daoxuan thought for a moment and said,”What if we use a war artifact?””
Fairy Chi Yao shook her head.” The defensive power of a level-six array formation is amazing. The battle immortal boat we’re carrying can only condense an attack equivalent to a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator at most. It can’t break the level-six defensive array formation at all.
Even if we waste time, we can’t waste time on a Tier 6 defensive array formation supported by spirit veins either!”
At this point, everyone frowned even more.
Compared to Chi Yao, Chen Daoxuan was in a worse mood.
Not to mention the enemy, even if it took three to five years to break this array, Chen Daoxuan could not afford it.
This was because he remembered the one-year promise from the hall master of the Sea Palace.
Counting the time, there were only nine months left in the one year agreement. In addition to the time needed to rush to the Qingwei Sect’s encampment from here, there was still a long way to go.
Chen Daoxuan could only stay here for half a year at most.
Half a year later, regardless of whether the Southern Mountain’s City was taken down or not, Chen Daoxuan would still head to the hinterland of the Qingwei Sect.
“What if we bypass the Southern Mountain’s City and attack the other parts of the Yun Nation?” Chen Daoxuan continued.”
“Go around the Southern Mountain’s City?”
Fairy Chi Yao was stunned.
She then took out a jade slip. In the next moment, a light projection shot out from the jade slip and a small light projection map appeared in front of everyone.
From the map, the various immortal passes built by the Qianyuan Sword Sect almost divided the Yun Nation into two.
The side of the Infinite Star Sea was occupied by the Qian Yuan Sword Sect, and the side of the Celestial Cloud Continent was still under the control of the Xuan Qing Dao League.
It was just that the line of defense built by the Qianyuan Sword Sect only fell into the hands of the Xuanqing Dao League.
It gave the entire defense line a medium-sized breakthrough.
As everyone looked at the map, they shook their heads in unison.

No, this move is too risky. After passing the Southern Mountain’s City, it will be the territory controlled by the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance. When we reach there, our army will be completely isolated.
Once we are attacked from the front and back by the enemy, we will really have no way out.”
Someone immediately objected.
Chen Daoxuan looked at the map and knew that his suggestion was unrealistic, so he didn’t say anything else.
Fairy Chi Yao’s eyes sparkled as she thought about it, but she still rejected Chen Daoxuan’s bold suggestion.
“What else do you have in mind?” she said, looking up at the crowd.”
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in silence.
Seeing this, Fairy Chi Yao frowned.
She did not expect that the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance actually attached so much importance to the Southern Mountain’s City, directly setting up a Tier 6 array formation.
What made her even more surprised was that the sect’s intelligence report did not mention a single word about such important news.
This made Fairy Chi Yao wonder if there was a conspiracy behind the recapture of the Southern Mountain’s City.
Shaking her head and getting rid of the messy thoughts in her mind, Fairy Chi Yao continued,””Since no one has any thoughts, then I will give the order.”
Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but straighten their bodies.
Fairy Chi Yao nodded and said,” All the troops will be stationed in the camp first. Tomorrow at dawn, we will call for battle in front of the pass!””
“Yes, sir!
Everyone cupped their hands in greeting.
Following the order.
Spirit ships descended one after another.
The various armies quickly stationed their barracks less than a hundred miles away from the Southern Mountain’s City.
A distance of fifty kilometers was something that a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could cover in an instant with a streak of light. For Zifu Disciples, this distance was within the range of their divine sense, and the flying sword could instantly cover it.
Stationing the military camp here was no different from setting up the military camp in front of the Southern Mountain’s City’s enemy. It could be said to be extremely arrogant.
At the top of the Southern Mountain’s City.
Daoist Master Yin Jiu was wearing a black spiritual armor. He looked at the black army of Cangzhou under the city and sneered.”! didn’t expect the Cangzhou cultivators to be so bold after decades.
It seems that my previous slaughter was too light and I haven’t killed their guts yet!”
“Commander-in-chief, since the enemy is so arrogant, should 1 go and test them?”
Upon hearing this, Daoist Master Yin Jiu shook his head.” Forget it. After all, they have eight Golden Cores guarding them. They’re not weak. If you go there rashly, I’m afraid you’ll be surrounded by the enemy.””
“This…”
The person who suggested this was only at the intermediate stage of the Golden Core realm. When he heard that he might be surrounded by eight Golden Core cultivators, his aura instantly cowered.
The next day.
Dawn had just broken.
A divine sense violently swept across the Southern Mountain’s City.
In the next moment, Chen Daoxuan, dressed in white, held a sword in the air and pointed it at the top of the Southern Mountain Pass.
“Do you cowards of the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance dare to come out and fight me?”
