The Prodigies War
chapter-1595

Zhu Yingkong’s furious bellow made Kun Shaoyu and the others who planned to retreat tense up.

The situation is bad!

Anyone who entered the Flying Immortal Battle Realm had to be a top famous figure of a domain, excelling in strength, intelligence, and experience.

At that moment, almost out of instinct, they all circulated their qi and were ready to fight.

Suddenly, mighty power and splendid waves of divine dao light spread outwards from their bodies, quaking the sky and earth.

Seeing such reflexes, Lin Xun had to admit that the peerless figures from the eight domains were indeed extraordinarily strong!

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The current situation could not be changed just because of some quick reaction speed.

Rumble—

In the distance, the group of Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits that were originally under the control of Zhu Yingkong suddenly changed target halfway and charged down at Kun Shaoyu, Zhu Yingkong and the others.

“They…”

“Damn it!”

“Zhu Yingkong, what’s going on?”

Voices of rage rang out as Kun Shaoyu and others turned pale one by one. They never imagined something so unbelievable would happen!

It should be mentioned that the reason why they were confident and fearless was because the Great Thousand Ghost Array was set up by Zhu Yingkong himself.

But now, everything seemed to be slipping out of control!

Amidst the loud shouts, everyone was drowned by the mighty wave of Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits, and fiendish qi soared into the sky. These vicious creatures attacked in groups and each one was no weaker than any supreme Saint.

Without the control of Zhu Yingkong, they were like a river that had burst the banks. Within seconds, they surrounded Kun Shaoyu and the others.

Boom!

Battles broke out without any surprise. The sky and the earth shook, and the sun and moon lost their splendor.

Whether it was the leading figures such as Kun Shaoyu, Chi Wushu and Xue Qingyi, or the top elite figures from various domains who came with them, they all fought with all their might and did not hold back at all.

However, this sudden unexpected trouble made all of them look extremely awful, and they almost cursed out from exasperation!

They originally dug the hole for Lin Xun, but they ended up falling into the hole of their own digging. It was no different from shooting themselves in the foot.

“Everyone, don’t panic, let’s fight together and break out of the encirclement first!” Zhu Yingkong looked the worst of them all. This unexpected misfortune was the greatest blow to him. It felt as though someone had slapped him hard in the face and then pointed and laughed in his face.

Was he not the one who arranged the great array?

Of course, he did not only lose face.

What was most difficult for him to accept was that he would never regain control of the Great Thousand Ghost Array, even if he tried to remedy the situation!

“Everyone has entered the game, so it won’t be easy to quit now!”

In the great array, Lin Xun uttered calmly. In his hand, a Stabilizing Saint Orb was glowing with the obscure brilliance of dao runes.

With one thought, the power of the entire Great Thousand Ghost Array was fully activated.

In every direction around him, towering mountains were rising from the ground, mighty rivers were gushing down, and roaring lava was spitting fire...

Instantly, the sky, the earth, and all directions were sealed off like the world had become a cage.

Kun Shaoyu and the others widened their eyes and froze like they had been struck by lightning.

It was a scene that they were more than familiar with!

Previously, Zhu Yingkong had used the same method to trap Lin Xun who was trying to retreat.

At that time, they were all grinning when they saw Lin Xun running like a headless chicken. Satisfied, they were all full of praises for Zhu Yingkong and commended his array-arranging abilities.

But now, the situation had been turned around and fallen upon them instead.

The feeling was similar to the most crafty hunter falling into a trap carefully laid by himself. It was a huge blow to them.

“Zhu Yingkong, what on earth is going on?!”

Kun Shaoyu’s face was livid, and his eyes were about to burst with anger.

At that moment, they were trapped within the siege of one thousand Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits. Even if they managed to fight their way out, mountains and rivers had blocked off every direction, isolating them from the rest of the world!

Anyone caught in this situation would feel despair.

Zhu Yingkong looked just as terrible as the others, and he almost crushed his own teeth in frustration.

“Zhu Yingkong, say something!” Chi Wushu roared in fury, sensing that something was wrong.

Everyone else’s faces turned dark and unpleasant.

Zhu Yingkong inhaled deeply. “Everyone, that guy has gained complete control of the power of the array...”

As he reached the end of the sentence, he felt a burning sensation in his face as if the skin had been peeled off. For a proud man like him to admit this, it was a heavy blow to his self-esteem.

“Damn it!”

Everyone was outraged when they heard that, almost coughing up blood.

In the past few days, they had been cooperating with Zhu Yingkong’s plan and concentrated entirely on capturing one thousand Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits. They believed that by setting up the great array, they could eliminate Lin Xun with a snap of their fingers.

But in the end, Zhu Yingkong actually told them that the array they had worked so hard to arrange had actually fallen into the control of Lin Xun!

Did that not mean all the hard work had only benefited someone else?

The most terrible thing was that the array was extremely powerful; otherwise, they would not have gone to great lengths to help set it up.

Now they were trapped inside of it, how could they get out?

“Brother Zhu, is there any way you can regain control of the array?” Xue Qingyi was the calmest. He had previously experienced Lin Xun’s incredible abilities, so this terrible situation did not fluster him at all.

“No.” Zhu Yingkong sighed, looking glum, almost going crazy with despair.

To be utterly beaten in the skill that he was most proud and confident in was incredibly hard to take.

In the array, Lin Xun said with a smile, “Is this what they call reap what one has sown?”

His sarcastic remark almost made Kun Shaoyu and the others lose control and curse out.

But they knew that they could not lose their heads and must work together to solve the predicament.

“Everyone, fight with everything you have!”

Kun Shaoyu took a deep breath and said aloud, “Given our abilities, it should not be difficult to destroy those Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits. After all, don’t forget that we were the ones who captured them!”

“Yes, let’s take action together. With our own strength, can we not kill those evil creatures?” Lie Qian gritted his teeth.

“Kill!”

The others also knew that they had no other option, so they all bore a look of determination and charged forth to kill with all their strength.

All of a sudden, batches after batches of Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits were slaughtered with incredible ease. Their unparalleled strength seemed unstoppable.

This was the power of the top figures in the eight domains. Each one was a peerless master who could lead the world. Naturally, their strength and combat ability was extraordinary.

However, there were just far too many Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits, and each one was extremely strong.

No matter how amazing Kun Shaoyu and the others were, they would not be able to break out of the encirclement within a short time.

“Previously, Fellow Daoist Zhu mentioned that the most wonderful thing about this array is that it can integrate with the power of heaven and earth to form an orderly and perfect inescapable circle-like formation.” Smiling, Lin Xun spoke out again.

“In my opinion, this is indeed true. I have to say I am impressed. The Torch Dragon Lineage’s mastery in the art of the runes is indeed marvelous and can shake up the heavens and earth!” His voice contained undisguised admiration.

But those words stabbed at Zhu Yingkong’s heart like sharp blades. His eyes reddened with uncontrollably rage.

He thundered, “Don’t be so arrogant!”

“Brother Zhu, please calm down, don’t get riled up and fall for it!” Xue Qingyi reminded him.

Immediately after that, he sent another voice transmission. “Brother Zhu, does the Great Thousand Ghost Array have other killing moves?”

That one sentence snapped Zhu Yingkong awake, his expression cloudy.

“There are three transformations in that array, first is the ‘Imprisonment Circle,’ and the second is ‘Controlling Ghosts with the Mind.’ We have experienced those two transformations.”

“What’s the third?” asked Xue Qingyi

“The third…”

As soon as Zhu Yingkong said this, Lin Xun seemed to have heard their secret conversation and interjected, “The third is called the Combined Power of the Universe.”

Zhu Yingkong’s expression completely changed, and his heart went ice-cold. He realized that Lin Xun had not only seized control of the Great Thousand Ghost Array, but he had also long comprehended all the secrets of the array!

Xue Qingyi’s eyelids visibly twitched. He judged that Lin Xun’s words were likely true, which made him almost curse out loud.

Zhu Yingkong, are you not the most outstanding figure in the Torch Dragon Lineage? How can someone use the art of runes to trick you without you even realizing it? How stupid is that?

He inhaled deeply and asked again, “What does it mean by the Combined Power of the Universe?”

Before his voice faded.

Boom!

On this side of the world, countless complicated dao rune patterns suddenly surged up, while the mountains, valleys, rivers and everything...all congregated and approached the same place.

It felt like all the power in the world had concentrated and was crashing down.

To fight against it was to be an enemy of the universe!

Suddenly, the pressure on Kun Shaoyu and the others intensified, and their expressions dramatically changed.

“Damn it!”

“Zhu Yingkong, why didn’t we know that the array could undergo such a change?”

At this moment, the leading figures such as Kun Shaoyu could not hold back anymore under the unexpected change.

“I originally planned to use it as a trump card and bring it out at the last moment so that you all can see the true power of this array, but who would have thought...”

Zhu Yingkong bit his lips. He could not stand it anymore.

“Who would have thought that this last trump card of yours would be used on you instead?” Lin Xun’s mocking voice rang again.

“It’s unfortunate. I had warned you before that you were knocking on death’s door, but none of you believed me. Who can you blame for bringing about your own death?”

Those words were grating on the ear. Kun Shaoyu and the others were so infuriated that they turned green in the face and their lungs almost ruptured.
