At Qin Shujian's request, a spacious courtyard was spacious.
Zhao Heng had arranged for him to stay in a relatively spacious courtyard, and he had ordered that no one was to disturb him without permission.
As for why the other party had done so …
Zhao Heng himself was not sure.
However, according to his thoughts …
The other party should be making some preparations to deal with the evil spirit sealed inside.
After all …
The East Joy Stronghold was different from other strongholds. There was more than one evil spirit sealed inside. There were three of them.
In the following day …
Thunder rumbled in the East Joy Stronghold.
Lightning struck from time to time, causing the other soldiers to tremble.
"Commander Zhao, what's going on?"
A general of Dong Le Fort looked at the incessantly descending lightning and the black clouds that covered a third of Dong Le Fort. His face was filled with shock.
Those lightning bolts …
Every single one of them emitted an aura that could make a cultivator at the peak of the True Martial Realm tremble.
"Heavenly Thunder Striking the Body. Sect Master Qin must be refining a Spirit Weapon!" Zhao Heng shook his head and said, "Yesterday, Sect Master Qin asked me for some tier-six materials. They should be used to refine a Spirit Weapon."
He did not forget that Qin Shujian was not only an Array Grandmaster.
He was also a Grandmaster Blacksmith.
"Refining a Spirit Weapon!"
"Hiss!"
Upon hearing this, many people were shocked.
Any Spirit Weapon.
It had an immeasurable value in the True Dominion.
Apart from a few sects with a strong enough foundation, not every sect had the existence of a spiritual weapon.
As for refining a Spirit Weapon …
They had only heard of it before, but had never seen it with their own eyes.
After all …
There were very few high-grade Blacksmiths in the North Cloud Mansion, let alone Grandmasters and Master Blacksmiths.
In a courtyard …
When the last Heavenly Thunder struck, the Heavenly Thunder Sect's disciples were stunned.
Qin Shujian stretched out his hand and the nine-sided array disc floating in the void landed in front of him.
"It's a pity that due to the lack of materials and time, I can only refine a low-grade Spirit Weapon array disc."
Looking at the nine-sided array disc in front of him, he shook his head silently.
A single array disc was a low-grade Spirit Weapon.
When the nine-sided array disc was combined, it could reach the level of a middle-grade Spirit Weapon.
However, when it came to inscribing arrays …
The strength of the array disc …
This represented the strength of the formation that could support it.
If it was a complete grandmaster-level formation that had the power to resist a Celestial Being, then the nine-square disk array would not be of much use.
However, if they were to deal with the Evil Fiends in the True Dominion …
With the help of the nine-sided array disc.
It was barely enough for him to use.
After all —
Array formations borrowed the power of Heaven and Earth, and the array disc was just a medium. It was not like other spirit artifacts, which could be used to fight against other cultivators.
Shortly after.
The nine array discs floated in the air.
Qin Shujian drew in the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi. His two fingers were like a divine brush as he carved out mysterious runes one after another. Then, he inserted them into the formation plate.
After the rolling thunder.
Another large amount of spiritual energy gathered.
Dongle Stronghold, which had been peaceful for a long time, experienced all sorts of strange phenomena on this day.
As for these phenomena …
After the initial shock, the people in the fortress slowly got used to it.
Two hours passed.
The spiritual energy receded.
Qin Shujian put away the nine-sided disk array and left the courtyard.
As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he saw Zhao Heng and a group of generals of Dongle Stronghold waiting there.
When they saw Qin Shujian come out …
Zhao Heng immediately went up to him.
Without waiting for him to speak, Qin Shujian spoke first, "Commander Zhao, please take me to the altar where the evil spirit is sealed."
"Sect Master Qin, please follow me!"
Zhao Heng took the lead and led Qin Shujian to the altar where the evil spirit was sealed.
As for the other generals …
They also knew what this meant. Without needing Zhao Heng to explain too much, they had already turned around to pass down the order and made the corresponding arrangements.
Although compared to the evil spirit …
An army of 200,000 soldiers …
It was difficult for them to fight against it.
However, there was absolutely no reason not to take any defensive measures.
On the other side …
Zhao Heng had already taken Qin Shujian to the altar where the evil spirit was sealed.
Compared to the nine-star array altar in the Limestone Stronghold …
The altar where the evil spirit was sealed was more complicated. It was a combined sealing array. The sealing power might not be as strong as that of the Limestone Stronghold, but it was definitely not much weaker.
According to the information given by Marquis Beiyun …
Inside this seal …
There were three evil spirits.
Staring at the seal for a while, Qin Shujian turned to Zhao Heng and said, "Commander Zhao, please leave first. No one in Dongle Stronghold is allowed to come within three hundred feet of the seal. If I don't come out, I also hope that the people in the stronghold won't do anything without permission."
"Okay!"
Zhao Heng nodded solemnly.
In this matter, he didn't dare to be the slightest bit careless, nor would he show off his ability.
If a Demon Calamity happened …
It wasn't something that a mere commander of a stronghold like him could bear.
If something went wrong …
It was a small matter if he died alone, but if he implicated the people behind him, the impact would be huge.
After Zhao Heng left …
Qin Shujian took out the nine-square array disc and arranged it according to the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams. Finally, it hid in the void.
At the same time …
He looked at the seal in front of him, gathered many array patterns in his hand, and then bombarded the seal.
In an instant …
The array patterns in the seal shone brightly, as if it was resisting something.
Compared to the broken seals in other places, the seal in Dongle Stronghold was still intact.
Similarly …
An undamaged seal was the same as being in front of an array master.
If Qin Shujian wanted to break this array, there was no difference between fighting with an Array Grandmaster from a distance.
Buzz …
The void trembled.
Qin Shujian waved his hand, and array patterns fell, trying to find a flaw in the seal.
Such a remote fight …
This was the first time he had done so.
The arrays that he had broken before were all incomplete, and the flaws were also very obvious.
Such a perfect array like this was the first time he had officially fought.
Fighting with an Array Grandmaster from a distance, Qin Shujian was also a little excited. Back then, he had only sat down and discussed the Dao with Ming Jingshan, and they had never really competed in arrays.
Now, although he didn't know …
Who was the expert who set up this array?
But there was no doubt about it.
The other party was an Array Grandmaster expert, but judging from his attainments in arrays, when he set up the array, he had not yet reached the peak of the Array Grandmaster level.
However …
This array had been set up for hundreds of years.
Although the other party had not reached the peak of the Array Grandmaster level hundreds of years ago, perhaps hundreds of years later, he had already reached this level.
Of course.
These things could not affect the speed at which Qin Shujian broke the array.
The deduction and improvement of the source of life.
Every step of improvement was the peak of the current realm.
With his current strength at the peak of the Array Grandmaster level, there was no problem in suppressing the other party.
Not long after.
As the last rune fell, Ye Zichen's eyes widened.
The entire seal array shook violently, and the patterns seemed to come alive, swimming in it like silver snakes.
Immediately.
They saw the silver snakes break apart.
In an instant.
The sky changed color, and a large area of thunderclouds covered the entire Dongle Stronghold. The flickering dark red lightning gave people an ominous feeling in their hearts.
"The thunderclouds are pressing down on the city, the evil spirit must have broken out of the seal!"
Zhao Heng's face was solemn, and he spat out a few words with difficulty.
Just a moment ago …
He had already seen the Fiendish Qi soar into the sky like a scene of the end of the world. It was as if one would fall deep into the evil Fiendish Qi if one took one more look at it.
"Everyone, be on guard. Anyone who approaches the Dongle Stronghold without permission will be killed without mercy if the warning is ineffective!"
"At the same time, pay attention to the movement of the evil spirit. If Sect Master Qin is defeated, use all your strength to resist the evil spirit and prevent the spread of the Fiend Calamity!"
Zhao Heng immediately issued the relevant orders.
"Yes!"
After the numerous generals received the orders …
The entire Dongle Stronghold started to move.
At the moment, all the experts in the True Dominion were alarmed by this evil aura and the black clouds covering the sky in the distance.
Given their knowledge …
They naturally understood that this was a movement caused by the birth of the evil spirit.
This was a matter of life and death.
Many experts of the sects could not hold back and rushed towards the Dongle Stronghold.
However, just as they reached the stronghold, they were stopped by the general guarding the stronghold walls. "Without the imperial court's decree, no one is allowed to enter the stronghold at this moment. Everyone, please return!"
Upon hearing this …
The experts who had arrived did not retreat. Immediately, someone asked, "May I ask if there is a problem with the evil spirit seal in the Dongle Stronghold?"
"The imperial court has sent experts to slay the evil spirit. Everyone, there is no need to panic."
"Slay the evil spirit?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Immediately …
Someone, who seemed to have thought of something, cupped his hands and asked from afar, "May I ask if Sect Master Qin of the Origin Sect is in the Dongle Stronghold?"
During this period …
Qin Shujian had been killing evil spirits everywhere, causing a lot of commotion.
Now that he had said this …
People could not help but associate him with this Sect Master Qin.
Upon hearing this …
The general on the city walls fell silent. Finally, he nodded and said, "That's right!"
"We will not enter the stronghold. We will only wait here for a while. I wonder if you can make an exception for us?" After receiving a definite answer, someone immediately spoke up.
To the people of the imperial court …
The experts of the sects still maintained a polite attitude.
After all, the sects of the True Dominion.
They did not have the right to provoke the imperial court.
"No harm done."
The general replied and didn't say anything else.
As long as the other party did not forcefully enter the Dongle Stronghold, they could stay wherever they wanted. It did not have much to do with him.
It was mainly because of the people present.
They were all reputable figures in the True Dominion. He could not afford to offend them too much.
On the other side …
As the seal was broken …
When the Heavenly Thunder rolled down, monstrous Devil Qi soared into the sky and collided with the thunder.
Immediately after …
The ground shook and cracked.
Soon, an evil spirit crawled out from under the broken seal. Its body, which was more than 200 feet tall, was like a mountain range, giving people a strong visual impact.
A violent aura.
Immediately, it spread out.
