When everyone saw Leng Yanran suddenly throw the jade pendant towards Luo Heaven Sect’s protective array, the disciples of the sect showed no signs of worry. Their protective array was a top-grade Earth-rank formation; even a cultivator in the Annihilation Realm wouldn’t be able to break it easily!
How could a technique concealed within a jade pendant possibly shake it?
However, as the jade pendant cracked open, revealing the technique hidden within, a terrifying aura engulfed the area, spanning hundreds of miles.
A small heavenly monument appeared, and it continued to grow until it reached a height of three thousand zhang (about 9,000 meters) before finally stabilizing!
The heavenly monument depicted vivid and ferocious demon appearances. Even though it was clearly an inanimate object, everyone present felt as if they were being stared at by those ten ferocious demon faces!
The horrifying aura emitted from the heavenly monument made it difficult for everyone to breathe. Cultivators below the Profound Sky Realm were unable to withstand the fear, falling to their knees.
Even Profound Sky Realm experts found their legs trembling, and while Unity Realm cultivators were slightly better off, their backs were already soaked in cold sweat, with droplets continually dripping from their foreheads!
But the most shocked were Luo Wu, the master of Luo Heaven Sect, and Yang Chun, who stood on the square. As Annihilation Realm cultivators, they felt the terrifying power most keenly!
This attack was at least something that a peak Annihilation Realm expert could unleash, and the grade of this technique was at least Heavenly-rank!
How could such a technique appear in the barren Northern Region? This was impossible!
“Hurry, pour your spiritual energy into the formation! Together, withstand this attack! This technique is no ordinary matter!!!”
The first to react were the elders of Luo Heaven Sect, who promptly called on the numerous disciples to channel all their abundant spiritual energy into the protective array.
As the heavenly monument was fully formed, it descended violently upon Luo Heaven Sect’s protective array.
“Boom, rumble—”
“Crack… crack—”
As the three-thousand-zhang tall monument filled with a menacing aura descended, the protective array of Luo Heaven Sect began to reveal cracks.
Already on the brink of collapse, it grew increasingly fragile, and numerous elders and disciples spurted blood from their mouths. Though the residual force from the previous strike transmitted through the formation was minimal, it still inflicted considerable damage.
“Go!”
In the end, Yang Chun, standing on the square, realizing the dire situation, quickly released his spiritual energy at the fifth level of the Annihilation Realm, stabilizing the protective array.
The dreadful heavenly monument slowly dissipated, transforming into faint black flashes. Luo Heaven Sect’s protective array suffered severe damage from this attack, even with the combined spiritual energy of all the disciples and the stabilizing assistance of Yang Chun, an Annihilation Realm fifth-level expert.
Seven out of the ten formation eyes were shattered, and it was on the verge of complete failure!
To restore it to its original state would require an enormous investment of effort, materials, manpower, and time. Fortunately, they had managed to halt that terrifying strike!
If not for the quick reactions of everyone, it was highly likely that the fearsome heavenly monument would have broken through the formation, killing over half of Luo Heaven Sect’s disciples.
“It’s too terrifying!”
“When that terrifying technique appeared just now, I saw my master, who has been in Unity for many years, beckoning to me!”
“Friend, are you okay? You don’t look too well!”
