Logan used his divine skill to observe, causing him to frown. He found something puzzling: Why was the defensive array on the Throne side so weak? It didn’t seem at all capable of resisting strong enemies.
“Is there some hidden mystery, or is it truly this weak? If the array is actually this feeble, I fear that the three thousand individuals could be in danger. With one day’s time to set up the formation and a Throne to hold it down, why would it be like this?”
He couldn’t understand it. He even calculated that their defensive array seemed to have only been charged with ten thousand spirit stones and less than ten divine weapons. It was completely a second-rate formation.
However, the array’s structure was extremely complex, even on par with Logan’s. It seemed to have been developed by a Sanctuary Powerhouse, but it was regrettable that it didn’t contain enough spirit stones.
While Logan was contemplating, the millions of demon beasts had already approached the Throne side and started their fiercest attack. Initially the array could resist, but after some time, gaps started to appear in it. Over a hundred Thrones frowned, clueless about how to face this situation.
Over two thousand Transcendent Tier Individuals were panicking, continually saying, “Didn’t you say that as long as we used forty thousand spirit stones to set up the array, we could definitely resist the demon beasts? Why can’t we even withstand an hour? What should we do next?”
“Don’t panic, let’s reinforce the array with our powers together. We have over two thousand people, so we can definitely hold them off.”
Over a hundred Thrones sank into regret. If they had known earlier, they would not have pocketed thirty thousand spirit stones and only used ten thousand to build the formation. They also had not expected the demon beasts to be so terrifying, amounting to a million strong. It was certain that once the array ceased to exist, they would not be able to escape either.
Even though they were Thrones, among these millions of demon beasts, there were no lack of other Thrones. There were even over a dozen demon beasts at the Full Throne level, just one step away from breaking into the Dominating Realm. The moment the array disappeared, the lives of over a hundred individuals would probably come to an end too.
Over two thousand Transcendent Tier individuals channelled their spiritual energy together, barely maintaining the array. Similarly, over a hundred Thrones were unyielding, persisting in this manner. Time passed minute by minute, second by second. The demon beasts’ attack did not weaken in the slightest, on the contrary, their side was exhausting their physical energy and was about to be unable to hold out any longer.
The Thrones were beginning to despair and regret wandered in their minds. “The opportunity for the Holy See is truly a losing deal. If by chance I can survive and get out, I would definitely not fancy being a closed-door disciple. I only hope to escape from this place of right and wrong.”
“At such a critical juncture of life and death, why doesn’t the Saint descend? It was clearly a test that he set up, we completed it with the skin of our teeth, and now we are in another disaster, yet he’s like a disappeared person.”
Over two thousand Transcendent Tier individuals roared, howling at the heavens, hoping that the Sanctuary Powerhouse could descend. This was the only hope for their survival, apart from that, it seemed no one under the sky could save them.
At the very next moment, the array collapsed instantly. Over a million demon beasts rushed towards them in an instance. Over a hundred Thrones made the first move, using their great divine skills to escape as fast as they could.
Those over two thousand Transcendent Tier individuals were sunk in deep despair, but they also started to flee one after another. But their speed was slower by a bit and they were surrounded by the demon beasts. Within the next hour, these over two thousand people were devoured by the demon beasts.
Over two thousand, nine hundred individuals, this scene was truly shocking. It also gave the other survivors a bloody reality: Even with the presence of Thrones, they could not resist millions of demon beasts.
Of the more than one hundred fleeing Thrones, only ten percent managed to survive. The rest were also caught and devoured by the demon beasts. As for the one hundred beings in the Mythical Realm that were being protected, they were also abandoned like pawns.
With the breaking of this defensive array, only two sides were left. One was the defense formed by the three thousand Transcendent Tier individuals and the other was Logan’s side where only four individuals remained. Apart from these, there were a few hundred survivors hiding in various places in the mountain range.
At this moment, the Transcendent Tier alliance prayed in silence, hoping that the demon beasts would not come this way. Only two points of time had passed and there were still two hours before dawn. They did not have the confidence to withstand it, especially after seeing how the Thrones’ formation had broken whereas theirs was even weaker.
The millions of demon beasts continued marching on. Fortunately, they were headed towards the other direction, which caused the alliance to let out a sigh of relief. In just over a dozen moments, they had already crossed a thousand kilometers and arrived in front of Logan’s array.
The three thousand Transcendent Tier individuals, who survived the calamity, ironically began to ridicule, “Four individuals, I reckon they won’t last for a minute before becoming food for the million demon beasts. After all, what kind of formation can four individuals form?”
The formation they, three thousand strong, had set up had already crumbled at the first blow, let alone one that was several thousand times weaker. It served these four people right to be besieged by the demon beasts for not joining them.
Shangguan Bowen was like a frightened rabbit, trembling and saying, “The terror of a million demon beasts can only be understood after seeing it with one’s own eyes. Even if the near lords were to join forces, they would certainly be helpless at this moment.”
“Don’t be afraid, just relax.” Logan appeared calm and confident in his formation, although he had some worries in his heart. This was his first time in real combat; whether he could withstand it was another matter. As long as there were not too many Dominators among the million demon beasts, he should be able to hold them off.
A million demon beasts attacked together, seeming to shatter this piece of space. Cracks spread for hundreds of miles causing heaven and earth to change at this moment. Countless Law’s Forces also fled in all directions, as if facing these tens of thousands of demon beasts, even the strongest would be ruined.
Terrifying energy exploded, sending shock waves out, yet Logan’s array remained as stable as Mount Tai. No matter how fierce the outside demon beasts’ attacks were, they couldn’t shake the array in the slightest. This scene was truly astonishing and gave Shangguan Boliteral a touch of confidence in his heart.
Originally, he was very worried and didn’t think Logan’s array was very strong. He had just been giving himself mental suggestions, after all, he didn’t have any other option before. But at this moment, he truly admired Logan, recognizing the gap between them. Although he was stronger in terms of cultivation, in terms of the realm of heart, he was tens of thousands of miles away from Logan.
The demon beasts’ onslaught became stronger and stronger, especially in their extreme anger, all kinds of divine skills were hurled out. However, the result was just the same as before. Not only was the array unharmed, it doesn’t even have a single crack.
Logan also figured it out. Although there were millions of demon beasts, most of them were at the Throne Realm. None of them was a beast of Dominating Realm. Thinking about cracking his formation? Even if they spent a year on it, it would be useless unless they could send over twenty or more Dominators at once.
At the other side—the three thousand Transcendent Tier Alliance, they saw everything through their techniques and naturally admired Logan greatly. From their initial disdain for the four individual, to now admitting it and feeling envious. To be able to be in such a sturdy defensive array, they could be invincible for these three days.
