Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1696 - 1701: The Critical Moment

On the calm sea, not a ripple could be seen.

Xia Liu gazed deeply over the surrounding sea area.

He could clearly feel that a super array was seated here, beyond description.

However, although the array was high-level, it had weathered the trials of time and was constantly assaulted by the Beast Vein powerhouses.

The power of the super array was no longer as strong as it was in the past.

If no remedial measures were taken, the array would undoubtedly be shattered by the Beast Vein powerhouses within half a month.

"Everyone, cast your spells and probe the array."

"Understood!"

After receiving a response, Xia Liu calmed his mind and slowly studied the array with the power of divine consciousness.

He sat there for ten days.

During these ten days, the array was constantly trembling.

This was because there were Beast Vein powerhouses within the array making moves, trying to break through.

Xia Liu completely ignored this harassment.

Now, with numerous Qi Cultivation Stage peak experts outside, unless the Beast King appeared in person, it was hard to shake them.

After ten days, six experts who attempted to comprehend the array gave up.

They couldn't even touch the edges of the array.

Rather than wasting their strength on the sea, they preferred to rest on the shore, waiting for the worst outcome.

Rumble!!!

A low rumbling sound continuously echoed from within the array.

Those nearby heard it very clearly.

After ten consecutive days without any results, Tiannan bitterly smiled and opened his eyes.

At the same time, Master Daozhen, Dark Venerable, and Xia Liu all stood up from their contemplation.

"Dao Master, how is the situation?"

Tiannan asked hopefully.

"I roughly understand the structure of this array, but with my individual strength, I can't augment the power."

"In that case, what if you add me?"

Master Daozhen smiled kindly, clearly, he had also glimpsed the mysteries within the array.

"Ha! Master Daozhen actually sees into the array with the Dao Master! Tiannan is impressed!"

Tiannan laughed, he, the Grand Elder of the Supreme Palace, never expected to fall behind others.

Especially with Master Daozhen, whose Taiyi Sect was like another Supreme Palace, serving as the source of Dao Primordial, Tiannan felt apologetic.

"Great! With the Dao Master and Master Daozhen working together, the power augmentation must succeed!"

Dark Venerable was a little excited as well.

"Rather than await death, it's better to attempt."

Though not fully confident, Master Daozhen knew the human race had no other choice.

Xia Liu nodded: "Mm, to augment the sealing power, we need a hundred spiritual artifacts. Let's first consult with the Martial Emperor on the shore."

"Okay!"

After the group responded, they headed towards the shore.

Seeing everyone returning, the Martial Emperor went to greet them with others.

Xia Liu and others' efforts for the people of the world were worthy of respect and admiration.

"Daoist Xia, how's the situation, did you find a way to augment the array?"

The Martial Emperor asked on behalf of everyone.

"Yes."

"Hahaha! That's wonderful!"

"I just knew Senior Xia was extraordinary! It's truly wonderful!"

"Not worthy of being the Master of Dao Primordial! Unquestionable!"

"Unquestionable indeed!"

Xia Liu's response made everyone present explode with excitement.

They cheered in excitement.

During their time guarding the Northern Border Frontier,

they all understood the terror of the Western Land Beast Veins.

Among them was a Beast King comparable to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If the Beast King appeared, none present might withstand it.

Before a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator appeared among the human race, if the sealing broke,

the consequences would be dire.

"Ahem, don't get too excited, everyone, although we've glimpsed the mysteries of the array, whether we can augment the power depends on the actual situation."

Xia Liu cleared his throat a few times, their enthusiasm instead pressured him greatly.

If it couldn't be done, they might despair.

"Yes, yes, yes! What kind of resources does Daoist Xia need to augment the array?"

The Martial Emperor restrained his excitement and hurriedly asked.

"As for resources, we need a hundred spiritual artifacts, the higher the tier, the better."

"Okay!"

The Martial Emperor nodded, spiritual artifacts were precious, but in difficult times, they must be sacrificed.

"What else?"

"Nothing else, just a hundred spiritual artifacts."

Xia Liu underestimated the Imperial Treasury, it looked like the Martial Emperor could easily accomplish this task.

"I can provide a hundred spiritual artifacts anytime. When does Daoist Xia need them?"

"Tomorrow morning, at the moment the sun rises."

"So, that moment is the best time for power augmentation?"

Dark Venerable asked.

"Yes, at that moment, the array's thirty-six transformations will unite, it is the perfect time for power augmentation, and also..."

Xia Liu didn't complete his sentence.

The astute had already understood.

It was also the perfect moment to break the array!

"In that case, everyone should guard the Dao Master together then."

Dark Venerable suggested.

"If I'm not mistaken, being trapped for so many years, the Western Land Beast Veins certainly know the importance of that moment too."

Xia Liu looked toward the distant sea: "The array has already shown cracks, tomorrow is our chance, and also the Beast Veins' opportunity, I hope everyone is prepared."

"Prepared, huh..."

Everyone's mood sank.

They all understood the importance of that moment.

Preparedness was long in their hearts, unafraid of its arrival!

"Vice Chief Daozhen, come with me for meditation."

Unwilling to waste time, Xia Liu immediately spoke up.

"Alright!"

Master Daozhen set off, going to a secluded place with Xia Liu.

"Grand Elder Tiannan, Dark Venerable, Daoist Fellow Yi Xiu, tomorrow we must protect Daoist Xia with our lives."

After Xia Liu left, the Martial Emperor arranged matters for tomorrow.

"Naturally, even if I die, I won't let anything happen to the Dao Master."

"Heh, if anyone thinks of harming the Dao Master, I won't allow it!"

Tiannan and Yi Xiu had long made up their minds, without needing the Martial Emperor's reminder.

"Tomorrow, the Beast Veins will surely pull out all the stops to break the array, we must protect the Dao Master."

Dark Venerable reminded.

"Everyone take time to meditate, if we fail, the world will be endangered."

"Alright!"

The group proceeded to find places to rest peacefully, waiting for the crucial moment.

On a certain mountain peak, dark figures gradually emerged.

"Dark Venerable, is it time?"

Holding the Heaven Palm Staff, clad in Sun-Moon Robe, Si Yin was poised to strike.

"Dawn tomorrow, at the moment the blazing sun pierces the sky, shall be when Xia Liu perishes."

Dark Venerable sneered: "At that time, when the sealing shatters, seize the chance to charge in."

"Yes!"

"The most intact, purest Blood Darkness Power within this realm, it's mine!"

"Hahahahaha…"

With waves of wild laughter resonating, the world gradually changed colors.

As if realizing the critical moment of human survival is arriving.

Sorrow for living beings, heaven weeps blood, pouring down torrential rain.

At night, during the third watch, all the cultivators within the camp stood up.

No matter how the rain poured outside their tents, it couldn't stop their hope and determination.

Amidst the storm and rain, two figures gradually stepped out.

Seeing this, the Martial Emperor immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"The time is almost here, follow me to the sea to augment the sealing."

Xia Liu passed on lightly, the message was clear, heard with excitement by all present.

"Yes!"
