Chapter 1528: Chapter 1527: Breaking into Thunder Valley, the Final Great Formation

The number of Fire Guardians, though numerous.

Their strength is inevitably somewhat weaker.

Among those present, even the weakest are Great Emperors.

Most of them are even at the peak of the Great Emperor level.

Under their fierce attack, the Fire Guardians won’t hold out for much longer.

In truth, the Fire Guardian Clan is indeed admirable.

Even when fate is sealed,

knowing it’s certain death, they still rush to their demise valiantly, only to fulfill the mission of guarding the flame.

Regretful as it may be,

in this world, strength ultimately reigns supreme.

The Sun Palace did not partake in this battle.

The Chaos Fire Realm where Xu Zimei resides also did not engage in the conflict.

The Sun Palace has its own schemes, while Xu Zimei is purely uninterested in the fire source.

He just wants to watch the drama unfold.

To see who the traitor mentioned by the Dark King truly is.

And what the Sun Palace intends to do.

……

Finally, as the initial chaos ensues,

the situation has gradually become clearer.

The people on this side have gained the upper hand.

This Guardian Grounds of the Thunder Domain is like its name suggests.

It is situated within a Thunder Valley.

The canyon is unfathomably deep, from the firmament above, it appears elliptical.

Around it, on the mountain walls,

are endless Thunderbolts raging.

Thunder won’t harm without reason, unless you fall into the thunder below.

The Fire Guardians grow increasingly weaker, one by one they retreat to the depths of the Thunder Valley.

“Charge, seize the fire source,” someone shouted.

The crowd’s emotions have been stirred up.

One by one, they recklessly sprint towards the depths of the Thunder Valley.

Murong Qing, at some point, approached Xu Zimei.

With a smile, she asked, “Is Young Master Xu not interested in the fire source?”

“As a human, my lack of interest in the fire source is quite reasonable,” Xu Zimei replied with a smile.

“Rather, it’s intriguing that your Sun Palace is also indifferent.”

“If Young Master Xu wishes to join us, since things have already reached this point, I can tell you everything,” Murong Qing replied.

“There’s no need to join you, I have no intention of involving myself in the matters of the Fire Tribe,” Xu Zimei waved his hand.

“Then Young Master Xu can just keep watching, everything will eventually come to light,” Murong Qing replied.

……

As everyone entered the canyon,

the scenery inside had already changed.

Thunder seemingly gained consciousness, actively attacking the intruders.

With the powerful presence of those gathered, thunder merely added some trouble, failing to drive them back.

As the Fire Guardians retreated to the deep valley, with no place left to retreat,

one by one, Fire Guardians fell in the depths of the Thunder Valley, leaving only the last Great Saint-level Fire Guardian.

Severely wounded, he was.

“Why resist to this extent? Our aim is just to find the fire source, not to kill all of you Fire Guardian Clan,” someone sighed.

Nonetheless, there were those impatient.

Soaring into the air, directly charging at the last Fire Guardian.

“Hand over the fire source, or you’ll find neither life worth living nor death attainable.”

That last Great Saint laughed brutally.

“Unable to protect the fire source, we are.

But even in death, we shall strip you of dignity.”

Having said this, the Fire Guardian crushed a token in his hand, which he had retrieved unknowingly.

A formation had somehow been set up within this vast Thunder Valley.

The formation is ancient.

With its activation, the entire Thunder Valley began to riot, numerous Thunderbolts started to move.

If the thunder here merely clung to the mountain walls earlier,

now it erupts entirely.

It covered the whole of Thunder Valley.

The firmament above was suddenly shrouded in dark clouds, silvery Thunder Dragons, formed from Thunderbolts, roamed within the dark clouds.

Suddenly, a thunderbolt struck from above the firmament.

With a “boom” sound,

a Great Emperor was completely pulverized on the spot.

The crowd was startled.

Someone shouted, “Don’t be afraid, it’s just a formation.

Break the formation, and the fire source will have nowhere to hide.”

Indeed, human greed can sometimes conquer fear.

Among this group, some were very familiar with formations too.

“Isn’t Array Emperor Sun Shaotian here?”

Someone cast their gaze upon a young man.

He is the Young Sect Leader of the Divine Array Sect.

Adorned in an imperial robe, naturally possessed with the Ten Thousand Arrays Royal Body.

Rumor has it, he could form arrays with a glance from the start of his cultivation, incredibly powerful.

At this moment, seeing everyone’s gaze, Sun Shaotian said with a smile, “Don’t be hasty, let me have a look at this formation.”

With a wave of his hand,

a round Array Plate appeared in his hand.

He slowly spun the Array Plate, currents of thunder enveloped its surface.

This Array Plate is the Supreme Treasure of the Divine Array Sect.

Not only can it be used to form arrays, but can also be used to break arrays.

Thunder erupted from the top of the Array Plate, splitting into seven thunders dispersing around.

Sun Shaotian looked to where the thunder dispersed.

He said, “This is where the formation’s cores are located.

Destroy the cores, and the formation will naturally collapse.”

Though there’s one thing to pay attention to.

The positions of these seven cores must be destroyed simultaneously.

Even missing one would be of no avail.”

Everyone quickly nodded in agreement.

Hu Ba of the Hell Tiger Clan stepped out first, shouting, “We in the Hell Tiger Clan will tackle the first core.”

“Then we’ll take on the second with our Supreme Volcano,”

a loose cultivator shouted.

Before long, the task of breaking the seven cores was assigned.

Ignoring the thunder’s bombardment, everyone charged towards the cores.

With successive “rumble” sounds of explosions.

After a fierce battle, heavy losses were sustained, though the good news is,

they were all close to the cores.

Hu Ba shouted first, “I’ll count to three, everyone attack the cores together.

Destroy this formation.”

All responded loudly in agreement.

“One, two, three.”

With a “boom” of explosion, countless attacks exploded like a torrent before their eyes.

The whole Thunder Valley was almost destroyed.

As if the firmament was roaring, the canyon trembled, and countless cracks appeared on the ground.

And on one side of the mountain wall, countless rocks fell, causing a landslide.

As for the thunder formation, the seven formation cores were thoroughly destroyed.

Thunder started to riot.

And gradually dissipated.

Everything vanished into thin air, and when everyone charged at that last Fire Guardian,

the Great Saint who activated the formation,

they found he had long been dead.

And behind him, lay a sea of thunder.

A true sea formed by the convergence of Thunderbolts.

“The fire source must be within here,” someone asserted.

“But with such an expanse of thunder, how do we enter?” someone asked.

“Let me try,” a loose cultivator stepped forward to say.

His body exuded immense power, relentlessly striking at the sea of thunder.

Yet it all seemed like stones sinking into the sea, with no effect whatsoever.
