Chapter 719: Burial

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

The Heaven Shadowing Array was designed by the Pioneer of Arrays, Feng Qing Ming. Though one cannot make the claim that the array was the result of his entire life learning, it still costed him much blood and effort and was considered to be one of his proudest products in this life time.

At the same time, the array board was crafted by the Immortal of Crafts, Duan Shan He. Similar to the Immortal of Arrays, he put much energy into making this array. Or else he wouldn’t have created such an unparalleled array.

Ling Xian wasn’t sure how powerful this array, one that combined two immortal’s abilities, was going to be.

But he was very certain that this array was going to be flawless and absolutely perfect!

Therefore, after this array recognized him as the owner, Ling Xian revealed a smile. He could clearly feel that these two array boards were spiritual and they were conjoint in blood.

“So this is the Heaven Shadowing Array that combined the two strength of two different immortals. It sure feels perfect and flawless.”

Looking at the golden array boards that were flying around him, Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips, and his eyes flickered with high expectation.

“Though this array cannot be used offensively and does not have much defensive abilities, I am certain that it is perfection.”

The Immortal of Array smiled in satisfaction, “Remember that I have put much effort into this array.”

“I am the same. I have combined both my, and the Immortal of Arrays’ knowledge into this. The array is definitely going to be without flaws and can help you bury the City of Sin.” The Immortal of Crafts was grinning as well, very satisfied with the array board he created.

“Alright, then I will go on my way.”

Ling Xian softly nodded, looking forward to the moment he buries the City of Sin.

Hearing this, the two immortal nodded, indicating that he should go.

“Then…”

Ling Xian paid his respect and left the Painting of the Nine Immortals in a flash.

After he reappeared in the external world, he didn’t waste much time. Calling out to the Winged Blitz, he immediately headed towards the City of Sin.

After about half an hour, he arrived above the City of Sin.

Because everyone had followed Ling Xian to the Ao Xian House, the city right now was without people and was in absolute quietness.

This was for the best. Just in case he accidentally hurts someone innocent.

“The city that once protected human kind… I wonder how many people remember what it has done.”

Peering down at the empty and lonely ancient city, Ling Xian exclaimed.

The City of Sin, also known as the Guardian City.

In the last era, this city helped people block out devils and protected human’s last patch of land. From this, it became obvious how much defensive power this city had.

Legend had it that this city was full of treasures and many different types of heavenly materials that had exuberant amount of defensive power. It was also known as the strongest shield.

As time went on however, the defensive properties that was within the city’s walls were completely destroyed. The heavenly materials also could not pass the test of time and were fading in power as days dragged on. Despite all this, the defensive properties of this city remained shocking.

Yet now, Ling Xian was planning on burying this city… the difficulty level of this was not hard to imagine. If anyone learns of this, they would laugh at him for having a rotten brain.

But he was very confident about this. The array that two immortals made could definitely penetrate the city’s defensive properties.

“The Guardian City… I cannot believe that there is a day when I am going to bury you single-handedly.”

Ling Xian softly grinned and his eyes flickered with anticipation.

He wasn’t going to actually destroy this city. If that was the case, he never would’ve agreed. He wouldn’t want to ruin a city that provided so much for humankind because of his selfishness.

He merely wanted this city to fall deep into the ground using the Heaven Shadowing Array. In other words, he wanted this city to disappear from the Taoism community, in case others find it and endanger it.

“Let’s start the burial.”

Lightly smiling for a second, Ling Xian’s expression then turned serious. At once, he summoned, and the two array boards that were swirling around him emitted an infinite amount of light that brightened up the sky.

Then, the array board rose to the sky. They converged into two and immediately enlarged. In the blink of an eye, they turned to the size of a small mountain range that surrounded the entire City of Sin.

“Heaven Shadowing Array, bury it!”

Ling Xian formed a hand seal. The gold array board buzzed slightly and a released a mysterious amount of energy that engulfed the entire City of Sin.

Then, an unbelievable scene occurred.

Under the mysterious force of the array, the entire city began to shake. Not only so, the entire space was breaking into pieces.

Just then, the sky darkened. Clouds were quickly forming above the City of Sin and wind aggressively blew against the ground.

This scene was similar to the end of the world, which made Ling Xian reveal his shock. “It truly is a heavenly array made by the two immortals. It sure is powerful.”

Just then, the entire space vibrated even more aggressively. Even the earth began to crack up.

HOMMMMM!

Wind continued to blow violently and debris were picked up and thrown all over the place. Coupled with the dark sky that was soon going to be filled with rain, the entire city was going under like it was its final day. It generated fear and desperation.

Under the force of the Heaven Shadowing Array, the ancient city that was nicknamed to be indestructible sank deeper into the ground inch by inch.

It should be known that this Guardian City was once known as the strongest shield. Though its past glory is no longer here, it was not a place to be easily shaken up. Yet this array was just starting to exert its power, and it was already sinking. This was unbelievable!

“What a powerful array. It is no wonder that the two immortals couldn’t stop complimenting it. This truly is their proud art.”

Ling Xian had a look of awe, but just as he exclaimed over the powerfulness of the array, the situation changed.

Perhaps it had felt the gravitational pull, the City of Sin, the city where everyone thought had lost its powerfulness, was exploding using its last bit of leftover strength.

The city walls were starting to shine, though weakly, they shielded the city from the immense pressure exerted by the Heaven Shadowing Array!

Ling Xian raised an eyebrow at this. He didn’t think the Guardian City that had already lost so much power in the past few years, still had some leftover strength.

“Interesting. But this is good. Just let me see who is better than the other.”

Smiling softly, Ling Xian injected his Qi into the Array Board. Immediately, a blinding amount of gold light began to shine and the exerted pressure increased. The entire space trembled and the ground cracked open more.

HOMMMMM!

The wind was ruthless and the sky darkened. One was the heavenly array made out of two immortals’ abilities, the other was the Guardian City known as the strongest shield. The clash of the two created an intense battle that destroyed everything within miles.

The horrifying ripple rolled out, immediately crashing everything in its surrounding. Even Ling Xian had to seek shelter.

In the end, it was the Heaven Shadowing Array that prevailed. After all, two real immortals created this array and it was insanely powerful.

Though the Guardian City was known to be unparalleled, its array had long been destructed and not much power was left. How could it compete against the almighty Heaven Shadowing Array?

Therefore, after a few seconds of stalemate, this indestructible ancient city had been completely repressed.

Every time the gold array board dropped one inch, the ancient city sank by an inch. In the blink of an eye, half of the city had gone underground!
