Dust filled the air and heavenly light filled the air. Only after a long while did the dust completely dissipate.
Ling Xian puked out blood. The man in gold and the others did the same.
However, they were all alive. This meant Ling Xian had blocked the elder's last attack.
"He blocked it. Haha, he blocked it!"
"What a powerful array. If it becomes the protective array of the Taichu House, even those leaders wouldn't dare to offend the Taichu House!"
"That's right. These two arrays are far too powerful, especially the Five Elements. It is heaven-defying!"
The man in gold and the others laughed out loud. Other than joy, they were also shocked.
The moment the elder detonated the array, they thought they were dead for sure. They didn't think Ling Xian would be able to stop it.
That was the explosion of thousands of arrays. To be stopped by two arrays, it was not hard to imagine how powerful these two arrays were.
"Impossible, this is impossible …" The elder lost his soul and was extremely bitter.
He originally thought he could drag a few people down with him. He didn't think that he wouldn't even have the right to die with Ling Xian.
"It's over …" Ling Xian softly sighed. This was the most tragic battle he's ever fought. If he wasn't careful, he would've been the one to die.
Luckily, he won.
"You defeated the strong. You did it." The elder looked at Ling Xian with complex emotions. There was hatred and respect.
Honestly, if it was him, there was no way he could last for two hours under thousands of divine arrays, let alone setting up two divine arrays in secret.
"To be admired by my enemies, I should feel honored." Ling Xian's eyes were deep. Not everyone can defeat the strong, and not everyone can be admired by their enemies.
"I have never admired anyone in my life. You are the first and the last."
The elder softly sighed, "To have lost to you is my fortune."
Then, he broke his own meridians and died on the spot.
At this, the man in gold softly sighed and shifted his gaze to Ling Xian, "Thank you, friend. If it weren't for you, I would've died for sure."
"I was asked by someone to do my best. There is no need to be so polite." Ling Xian softly grinned, "After I break the array, the Taichu House's crisis will be over."
The gold robed man hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then he said, "Young friend, I have a presumptuous request."
"Headmaster, please speak." Ling Xian smiled.
"The Taichu Sect needs a new protective formation. Can you set up the Five Elemental World Shocking Formation for the Taichu Sect?" The golden-robed man looked hopeful.
It was the same for the white-robed old man and the Taichu Sect Supremacy.
They had all witnessed the power of the Five Elemental World-shocking Formation. If the Taichu Sect had this Divine Formation, it would undoubtedly be like adding wings to a tiger.
"Sure, as long as the Taichu Sect has the Stone of Five Elements." Ling Xian grinned, guessing that the man in gold would make such a request.
It was not difficult to guess. If the Taichu Sect did not want to move, they would need a new mountain-protecting formation. After witnessing the power of the Five Elemental World-shocking Formation, how could the golden-robed man not want it?
"Five Elemental Stone …"
The golden-robed man smiled bitterly and said, "This item is extremely rare. Let alone my Taichu Sect, you might not even be able to find one in the entire Ascendant City."
"Then I have no choice. Without the Stone of Five Elements, the Five Elemental World Shocking Formation's power will be greatly reduced."
Ling Xian smiled. Seeing that the man in gold was hesitating, he said, "I am not selling my Stone of Five Elements. Headmaster, please don't even think about it."
"Ehem, ehem …"
The man in gold coughed to hide his awkwardness. Then, he exchanged glances with the white-robed old man and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
Ling Xian's meaning was very clear. Without the Stone of Five Elements, there was no way he could get the Five Elemental World Shocking Formation.
The man in gold smiled, "Since I cannot get the Five Elemental World Shocking Formation, then I will have to take a step back. I wonder if you are willing to help me?"
"Sure, but I want two sets of heavenly materials." Ling Xian nodded. He wasn't going to help the Wan Chu Sect for nothing.
"Of course." The man in gold was ecstatic. Though the Array of Ten Thousand Swords was not as powerful as the Five Elemental World Shocking Formation, it was still one of the top 10 offensive arrays. Why wouldn't he be happy?
As for Ling Xian's request, it was nothing.
The Array of Ten Thousand Swords was a heavenly array that could only be found by luck. Even if Ling Xian asked for three sets, he would be more than happy to agree.
"The Array of Ten Thousand Swords requires the following heavenly materials. None of them can be missing." Ling Xian smiled and listed 48 types of heavenly materials.
"I will order my people to prepare them." The man in gold smiled, "When the time comes, I will have to trouble you."
"You are welcome." Ling Xian smiled. To him, setting up the Array of Ten Thousand Swords was nothing.
Exchanging it for 48 heavenly materials was, without a doubt, a good deal.
"Words cannot express my gratitude. The Taichu Sect will remember your kindness. If you need anything, just let us know." The man in gold was serious.
"Headmaster, you are exaggerating." Ling Xian smiled, knowing that this was the reward from the Taichu Sect. To him, this was the best reward.
The Taichu Sect was a giant in the City of Striving. A promise from them was more valuable than anything else.
"You have given the Taichu Sect a new lease on life. If it weren't for you, I would be dead." The man in gold exclaimed, still a little fearful.
The elder in white and those from the Taichu Sect felt the same.
A thousand heavenly arrays were far too terrifying. If it weren't for Ling Xian, they would've died for sure. Naturally, they were grateful to him.
"Let's not talk about the past. I will break the array first. Once I find the heavenly materials, I will set up the array." Ling Xian grinned and left the ground to break the array.
Two days later, the array crumbled and could no longer absorb spiritual energy and lifespan.
This meant he solved the crisis that had been troubling the Taichu Sect for 10 years. If news of this gets out, Ling Xian's name will be known throughout the City of Striving.
Then, he began to set up the Array of Ten Thousand Swords.
Compared to other arrays, this array was much easier. With Ling Xian's knowledge of arrays today, it wasn't hard to set up this array.
Therefore, he only used two days to set up the Array of Ten Thousand Swords.
This made the man in gold smile from ear to ear. After testing out the array's power, he became even more ecstatic.
This was all because even when he and the elder in white teamed up, they were exhausted by this array.
Remember that he and the elder were both Supremes. Even together, they were exhausted by the Array of Ten Thousand Swords. This alone was enough to prove how powerful this array was.
It also proved how profound Ling Xian's array skills were.
"My little friend's array skills are truly shocking. I dare say that at your age, no one can compare to you." The man in the golden robe exclaimed.
"That's right. To be able to step into the grandmaster realm before 200 years of age is already unbelievable."
The elder in white sighed, "I cannot believe you are one of the best out of the grandmasters."
"You have flattered me."
Ling Xian grinned, "The crisis of the Taichu Sect has been resolved. I have also set up a new array for the Taichu Sect. It is time for me to leave."
"Wait a moment. You have given the Taichu Sect a new lease on life. It is time for me to give you an opportunity." The man in gold grinned.
"What opportunity?" Ling Xian's interest was piqued.
"There is a holy land in the City of Striving that can help living beings break through."
"This place is controlled by the controlling forces of the City of Striving. Only those with tokens from the controlling forces can enter."
The man in gold grinned, "I plan on giving you the token and letting you in."
"Then, thank you, Supreme Headmaster." Ling Xian grinned.
