Chapter 206: Chapter 205: The Surface Secret of the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit

At that moment, Jiang Zuo was controlling sixteen giants within the Mist, launching a pincer attack to annihilate the Gold and Silver Armors.

Blades flashed and swords descended in a relentless, unending cycle.

Amid flashes of blades and swords, the figures of the Silver Armors and giants flickered continuously high in the air. The entire space distorted from the shockwaves of their power.

It seemed as if it could collapse at any moment.

Weaker Cultivators couldn’t even look directly at the battle.

Forcing oneself to watch would only result in blindness.

"The special effects are too intense this time. I’m blind. How about you guys?" Mo Yan said, facing the sky with her eyes closed.

’Even if I can’t see, I can’t bow my head.’

’How could a Demon Cultivator possibly bow their head?’

Chu Qing, on the other hand, lowered his head. "I’m never saying Elder Po Xiao’s entrances lack special effects ever again."

Chi Xue Child took a bite of an ice cube. "I can’t tell what’s happening. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Po Xiao is winning. I really hope he does. These guys seem even cockier than him."

Liu Yiyi also faced that direction with her eyes closed. ’How could I possibly lose to Demon Cultivator Mo Yan?’

"But what if that isn’t Fellow Daoist Po Xiao?"

Blade Master Hai Bian said, "I don’t care who it is. I’m rooting for him to beat these guys."

Chu Qing rubbed her eyes, yawned, and then opened them. The instant she did, she screamed, "Aah, my eyes! I’m blind!"

She had just woken up and had no idea what was going on.

’Who knew this would happen?’

"Aaaaaah, it hurts! Sister Xiao, my eyes hurt!"

Xiao Xiaomo looked down and reached out to hug Chu Qing, but her hand landed on something soft.

Chu Qing shrieked, "Aah! Who’s groping me?!"

As she yelled, she flailed her arms, hitting someone nearby.

Chu Qing was the innocent victim. He was sent flying. "Aah! Sis, you hit the wrong person! Ah, my eyes! Aaaaaah, it hurts!"

He flew out and crashed right into Liu Yu and Yang Mu.

"The hell? Who just hit us? Ah, I’m blind, I’m blind!"

Chen Yi kept his eyes squeezed shut, refusing to open them no matter what.

The next moment, Chen Yi felt something poke him and shrieked, "What the f—, who poked me in the kidney?! Oh god, my eyes!"

Mo Yan’s heart was pounding in terror, afraid of getting dragged into the chaos. Suddenly, she exclaimed, "Hey, who grabbed my foot?! Let go, you pervert! Aiyah, my eyes, my eyes! Chi Xue Child, save me!"

Mo Yan flailed a hand out to grab something, and Chi Xue Child’s popsicle was knocked right out of his hand.

"Whoa, my popsicle! Good heavens, it’s so bright! I’m done for, I’m blind! Where’s my popsicle?!"

Liuyue Xue cried out, "My hair! Chi Xue Child, you— Aah, my eyes hurt so much! Can someone give me a hand?"

Liu Yiyi said, "Why are you grabbing me? Ugh, my eyes, my eyes! Why do I feel like the whole world has gone white?"

Xiao Xiaomo felt a weight on her hair, and she knew she was done for. She was blind.

Only Blade Master Hai Bian stood firm, his hands pressed together as he activated his Golden Body. Everyone else was crying and clutching their eyes.

If not for his high Cultivation and his mastery of the Buddhist Golden Body Technique, he would have almost certainly been unable to escape the fate of blindness.

’But... everyone else has experienced the brilliance of that battle. Wouldn’t I be left out if I don’t take a peek?’

And then...

******

Jiang Zuo was completely suppressing the Gold and Silver Armors, but he couldn’t afford to focus all his attention on them. His goal was to destroy the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit.

The master of the array wanted to destroy this thing, and so did Jiang Zuo.

As for why?

Because it might affect Su Qi. That was reason enough. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Then, Jiang Zuo raised a hand. A bow materialized in it, and he drew the string taut.

An arrow automatically nocked itself on the string.

In Jiang Zuo’s hands, there was nothing he couldn’t hit.

Then, he released the arrow from the fully drawn bow.

Its speed was blindingly fast.

Seeing the arrow fly out of the Mist, the Golden Armor roared in fury, "You dare!"

The Golden Armor erupted with power in an instant, wanting to intercept the arrow.

But would Jiang Zuo possibly let him go?

The Golden Giants’ attacks immediately intensified, pinning down the Golden Armor and pummeling it relentlessly.

The arrow flew out. The Forbidden Land Maiden saw it; from her high vantage point, her line of sight was clear.

She stared intently, waiting for the moment the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit would shatter.

It was the same for Yue Xi, who could see everything thanks to her Dao Bead.

The other people from the Holy Land grew worried.

The next moment, the arrow struck the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit, which had made no attempt to evade it.

Just as the Forbidden Land Maiden and Yue Xi thought he had succeeded, they were shocked to discover that the moment the arrow touched the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit, it instantly disintegrated.

Jiang Zuo frowned as he looked at the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit. ’Ineffective? Was it specifically designed to counter the Holy Land Array? So it can defend, but not attack?’

’If that’s the case, then no matter how powerful this array is, it will be impossible to destroy the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit.’

The Forbidden Land Maiden sank to the ground. She knew that person had specifically protected this Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit from her.

’It’s impossible to destroy it with the array.’

’There’s no hope left.’

Yue Xi sighed as well. ’As expected, it can’t be destroyed.’

The Golden Armors and their cohorts began to laugh. ’Ignorant mortals.’

’How could the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit be so easy to destroy?’

But before their smiles could fully blossom, an invisible beam of light shot straight through the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit.

The next moment, the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit shattered, layer by layer.

Golden Armor: "..."

Forbidden Land Maiden: "..."

Yue Xi: "..."

Many were left dumbfounded, a single thought running through all their minds: ’What just happened?’

Beside Jiang Zuo, Shi Qi and Shiba let out a sigh of relief from inside their bucket. The villain next to them hadn’t flown into a rage, which meant they hadn’t failed.

Duan Qiao, sitting atop Sweet Potato, said, "See? I told you I’m an expert at aiming. Listening to me was the right call, wasn’t it?"

In truth, it had nearly been scared to death. The person beside them had just released all of them and given them a single mission: to hit the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit.

The task was so important it was a matter of life and death. One look into that person’s eyes and Duan Qiao knew the unspoken threat: there was only one chance. Failure meant death for all of them.

Fortunately, the mission was a complete success.

Jiang Zuo said nothing. His eyes were fixed solely on the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit, and he would watch until it vanished completely.

But the longer he watched, the more shocked he became.

The Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit was disappearing; there was no mistake about that.

The problem, however, was the way it was disappearing.

Others might not have noticed anything amiss, but he did.

He had seen this happen far too many times—so many that he had grown to loathe the sight.

The way the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit was disappearing was identical to how Jiu Xi had vanished after he killed her in his past life.

This kind of disappearance was only temporary. It was still there. It would appear again.

Jiang Zuo moved in the next instant. This thing hadn’t fused with Jiu Xi yet, which meant it was incomplete. And as long as it was incomplete, it could be destroyed or captured.

’Catch it, unravel its secrets, and make it disappear for good.’

But just as Jiang Zuo made his move, a beam of sword light suddenly shot out from the lake.

The sword light connected to the vanishing Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit, then guided it back to the Immortal Spirit Spring, and finally into the Immortal Spirit Cave Mansion.

Jiang Zuo watched this happen without making a move. The one that had appeared was the Immortal Spirit Sword, and in his current state, he was no match for it.

Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Leaves Immortal Spirit had returned to the Immortal Spirit Cave Mansion. That meant it was still within a controllable range.
