Those demon beasts seemed to have gone crazy.
Even though there was a Level 4 array in front of them that could instantly turn them into bloody mist, they did not care at all and smashed into it.
Boom, boom, boom!
In an instant, violent explosions sounded continuously.
All kinds of innate divine powers and spells were thrown out crazily by the demon beasts.
However, these attacks were useless against the Level 4 Stars Chain Array.
On the contrary, after they rushed into the range of the array, they were all minced into a bloody mist.
In just a moment, thousands of low-level demon beasts fell.
And this number was still increasing.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and the others, who were in the array, did not look relieved at all.
It was because the kamikaze attacks would facilitate the consumption of spiritual stones used to run the array.
If 500,000 spiritual stones could originally maintain the operation of the array for a day and night, under the kamikaze attack, 500,000 spiritual stones would probably be exhausted in less than half a day, provided that the Wolf King didn’t make a move.
If the Wolf King went to the battle personally…
Jiang Chengxuan and the others didn’t dare to imagine.
They couldn’t let the situation continue to worsen like this.
Jiang Chengxuan turned to look at everyone.
“Everyone, let’s fight back. I’ll be in charge of operating this array and do my best to ensure everyone’s safety.
This way, the consumption of the array itself can be minimized and maintained within a relatively reasonable range.”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, no one had objections.
Soon.
Jiang Chengxuan walked to the core of the array.
With his current attainments in arrays, although he could not set up a Level 4 array of such a scale, operating it wouldn’t be a problem.
Buzz!
Soon, the operation of the array began to change from a passive defense to a targeted defense.
At the same time, its counterattack against the enemy became even fiercer.
Most importantly, with Jiang Chengxuan operating the Stars Chain Array, the array seemed to have become alive.
As long as a cultivator outside was in danger, the array would instantly extend and envelope him.
The Wolf King narrowed its eyes with a cold glint in them.
However, it was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, it watched as countless demon beasts in front of it were reduced to ashes by the Stars Chain Array.
Just like that.
A day passed quickly.
When the sun shone on Ancient Origin City the next day, a thin blood-colored cloud had already condensed in the sky above Ancient Origin City.
Wherever the eye could see, there were the corpses of demon beasts everywhere.
Their blood had already turned into streams that flowed along the surrounding potholes.
On the wall of Ancient Origin City.
There was fatigue written across the faces of all the cultivators.
The intensity of the battle in the past day had exceeded any time in the past.
Even Hua Mengyou, Li Fei, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family had bloodshot eyes.
The Dharmic power fluctuations emitted from their bodies were slightly unstable.
Only Shen Ruyan remained calm and collected, as if she was not much affected by the battle yesterday.
The Dharmic power fluctuation on her body was as still and vast as the sea. There were no signs of instability or exhaustion.
This shocked Hua Mengyou and the others.
They had seen Shen Ruyan killing the false Level 4 demon beast, the Bladed Golden Eagle, as well as three other Level 3 demon beasts.
But even so, Shen Ruyan was still in good condition.
How deep and vast was her foundation and Dharmic power?
Just as everyone was thinking about this, the demon beasts that had retreated not long ago suddenly gathered again.
In no time, the overwhelming mass of demon beasts appeared outside Ancient Origin City again.
Seeing this, the cultivators had no choice but to perk up and face the enemy.
It lasted for a total of three days.
When the sun on the fourth day rose outside Ancient Origin City, the Wolf King, who had not attacked at all, suddenly moved.
Its figure flashed and landed above the sky of Ancient Origin City within a breath’s time.
Then, it opened its mouth and spat.
A blood-colored saber in the shape of a wolf’s head slashed down at the Stars Chain Array in Ancient Origin City.
Boom!
For four consecutive days, the Stars Chain Array, which had been extremely stable, immediately dimmed greatly after being attacked by the Level 4 Dharma treasure.
The pillars of light that were connected to the sky also showed signs of collapsing.
Jiang Chengxuan, who was operating the array, had a drastic change of expression.
He could clearly sense that this demon beast’s strength was probably not just at the early stage of the Golden Core.
Otherwise, the Stars Chain Array wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
Without any time to think, Jiang Chengxuan immediately grabbed a storage ring beside him and threw hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones into the array.
Buzz!
The Stars Chain Array, which was originally dimming, brightened up after being fueled by the spiritual stones.
Seeing this, a trace of mockery flashed across the Wolf King’s eyes.
Its body flashed as it attacked several different spots of the array, causing the light of the array to tremble.
Hua Mengyou and the others, who had already returned to the array, felt their hearts in their throats.
At this moment, they were really afraid that something would happen to the array.
If it was broken, it would probably be impossible for them to escape.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan, who was in charge of operating the array, was quite capable.
Even with the continuous attacks of the Wolf King, the array was still able to hang in there even though it was already on the verge of collapse.
“Fellow Daoist Hua, when will the Golden Cores of your sect arrive?”
At this moment, even the ancestor of the Bai family, who was the most senior and calm of them all, could not remain calm anymore. He turned to look at Hua Mengyou.
When the others heard this, they also turned to look at Hua Mengyou.
Just as Hua Mengyou was about to answer, a powerful light suddenly flew over from the distant sky on the other side of Ancient Origin City.
Feeling that rare and intimidating pressure, everyone realized that it was a Golden Core.
“Beast, how dare you!”
Before he arrived, an angry shout came from afar.
Like thunder, it actually caused the demon beasts who were still attacking the city to fall to the ground and tremble.
Seeing this, Hua Mengyou, Li Fei, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family could not help but reveal pleasantly surprised expressions.
“It’s a Golden Core senior!
A Golden Core senior is here!”
As soon as everyone finished speaking, a huge sword that was a thousand feet long suddenly flew over from the streak of light.
The huge sword emitted a resplendent sword light and slashed at the Wolf King.
The Wolf King immediately took out its wolf-headed saber.
When the two Level 4 Dharma treasures collided in midair, a mushroom cloud rose and waves of powerful aftershock wreaked havoc, tearing apart the bodies of hundreds of demon beasts closest to them..
