Chapter 185: Chapter 112: The Seven Stars Gang Colludes with the Moon Worship Sect, a Demon Suppression Envoy is Trapped in the Grand Array, and Chu Fan Furiously Kills the Cyan Wood Hall Master

Seizing the opportunity, Chu Fan used his right arm as a blade, layering the Ninefold Blade Force and concentrating it in his right palm!

"Sixth Fold of the Ninefold Thunder Shock Saber—Celestial Fury: Thunderous Heaven Fall!"

With a roar in his heart, Chu Fan’s right arm fell like a celestial blade, and a muffled thunderclap exploded through the air!

This strike contained all his Qi Blood Power and resolve, layered with the Ninefold Blade Force!

No one who cultivated the Ninefold Thunder Shock Saber had ever dared to condense Sword Force onto their arm!

Only someone like Chu Fan, with his Vajra Undying Body, would dare attempt something so insane!

Qin Fei had no idea this was the Ninefold Thunder Shock Saber.

From their earlier exchange, he knew his opponent hadn’t even broken through the five stages of Foundation Establishment. The man didn’t have a single shred of Primordial Qi; his power was far inferior.

Seeing the Ghost-faced Man’s "blade" chop down, Qin Fei raised his left elbow to block while simultaneously throwing a right-handed punch toward Chu Fan’s heart!

SHHNK!

The "Hand Blade," shimmering with a metallic and electric gleam, instantly shattered his elbow. It then tore through the crimson Protective Primordial Qi he had desperately summoned and sliced viciously into his chest!

CRACK!

A long, diagonal gash, deep enough to reveal bone, stretched from Qin Fei’s left shoulder to his right abdomen.

Blood sprayed out like a waterfall!

"Ninefold... Blade Force..."

Qin Fei’s eyes went wide, filled with incredulous despair and resentment. His body swayed.

Not even Cao Feng would dare condense Ninefold Blade Force onto his arm to execute the Ninefold Thunder Shock Saber.

’Why...’

’How has this man not only perfected the Moon Worship Sect’s Extreme Night Cold Prison Hand, but also cultivated the Cao Family’s Ninefold Thunder Shock Saber to such a terrifying degree?’

A few thoughts flashed through Qin Fei’s mind.

Then, his vision went dark, and his body collapsed heavily to the ground.

Chu Fan panted, his eyes sweeping over the children with vacant stares in the surrounding cages.

He knew he couldn’t possibly rescue all of them on his own before Qin Fei’s reinforcements arrived.

His gaze quickly swept across the pit. A series of pillars, stained with dark red blood and carved with Runes, caught his attention.

’These must be part of the Array!’

Chu Fan didn’t know much about Arrays, but he’d learned enough from the books in the Seven Stars Gang’s Library Pavilion to know that setting one up was no easy task.

’If I can just break this Array, they won’t be able to restore the Grand Array quickly!’

’And if the Grand Array isn’t restored, these children won’t die so easily!’

Without a moment’s hesitation, Chu Fan sheathed his Long Saber, rushed to the cliff’s edge, and leaped.

He spread his arms, landing as lightly as an eagle on one of the pillars below.

He then leaped down from the pillar, gathered all the Qi Blood Power in his body, spun around, and unleashed three consecutive punches against it!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The pillar shook violently as countless blood-red threads and strange Runes lit up across its surface.

The other surrounding pillars did the same...

It was as if his punches had shaken the entire Grand Array!

"What!"

Chu Fan was startled.

’Even with all my strength, three furious punches didn’t shatter the pillar? I didn’t even make a single crack!’

"Hey, kid!"

A voice suddenly came from beneath the stone platform at the center of the Grand Array, making Chu Fan’s heart clench.

But the man’s next words allowed Chu Fan to breathe a small sigh of relief.

"Striking one pillar is like striking the entire Grand Array. With your current power, you’ll never break it!"

"Come over to the central stone platform. If we work together, we can smash this platform first. That will create a flaw in the Grand Array."

"Then you can smash the stone pillars and destroy this Array!"

Chu Fan didn’t move.

He wasn’t sure if the owner of the voice was friend or foe.

But just then, the faint sound of a long cry echoed in the distance in response!

Clearly, reinforcements were approaching fast!

Chu Fan quickly darted to the stone platform at the center of the Grand Array, but he only circled it once, not making a move.

The man under the platform seemed to grow anxious. "I am Yue Mankong, a Demon Suppression Envoy from the Great Yan Dynasty’s Demon Suppression Bureau," he said. "My Divine Sense Avatar was carelessly trapped beneath this Array."

"Hurry up! Once their reinforcements arrive, you won’t even have a chance to escape!"

’Demon Suppression Bureau?’ Chu Fan’s expression flickered.

He had seen records of it before in the Demon Record—

It was a mysterious organization under the imperial dynasty, specializing in matters of Demon Fiends and other evils.

’But how could a great Demon Suppression Envoy be so helpless?’

’Trapped under an Array by a mere gang in Cyan Yang City?’

"Hey, hey, hey!"

The Demon Suppression Envoy, Yue Mankong, spoke again. "I know what you’re thinking... and it’s not like that! I’m just a Divine Sense Avatar that was trying to recover a bit of strength, and I ended up getting carelessly trapped!"

"These bastards have killed countless children... If you don’t act now, their men will be here!"

"When that happens, not only will you be unable to escape, but more people will die!"

"As long as this Array is broken, they won’t be able to restore it for at least three to five months!"

’I’ll risk it!’ Chu Fan gritted his teeth and smashed his fist onto the stone platform at the center of the pit.

BOOM!

Stone fragments flew, and the Runes dimmed.

Chu Fan gathered his full strength and landed three more punches!

The stone platform shattered on impact, and the patterns and Runes on its surface were instantly extinguished.

The moment the stone platform shattered, the entire pit shook violently.

An invisible barrier seemed to shatter all around, and the light itself appeared to twist.

Much of the oppressive aura dissipated, yet something deeper seemed to stir in its place.

The world seemed to darken...

’Did the Array really break?’

The thought had barely formed in Chu Fan’s mind.

When a sudden change occurred!

The earth beneath the shattered stone platform churned, and a palm-sized, crudely cut Paperman with facial features drawn in cinnabar wobbled out and hovered before Chu Fan.

The Paperman made a dry, rustling sound, speaking at an incredible speed. "Young friend, do not panic! I am Yue Mankong, Demon Suppression Envoy of the Great Yan Dynasty’s Demon Suppression Bureau! I was investigating this place earlier and was carelessly trapped in this Spirit-Seizing Blood Refining Array. Thank you for breaking the Array and saving me!"

The Paperman, Yue Mankong, continued, "But you’ve only broken the surface! The core of this Array hasn’t been destroyed! Do you see that unremarkable, slightly darker boulder in the northwest corner?"
