176 Give It Your All!

Xin Yu looked at Zhou Yun’s current state. She was so shocked that she was speechless!

Ling Qingyun also took the opportunity while Xin Yu’s attack was blocked to continue activating the attack of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array. She heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she took the time to look over to where Zhou Yun was.

She knew that all the disciples within the array were treated as a single entity. Although Zhou Yun was standing in the array center, as long as Ling Qingyun did not allow it, even he would not be able to freely mobilize his spiritual energy.

The battle with Xin Yu was extremely intense. Each and every second was a critical moment of life and death! Therefore, within the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array, Ling Qingyun had only given Zhou Yun the right to use the sword Qi within his old sword. He had not even been given the right to leave the array center.

From what Ling Qingyun knew, Zhou Yun, who was unable to use his spiritual energy or move around freely, should have had to wait obediently for her instructions. She could not figure out how he was able to interrupt Xin Yu’s attack!

Runes began to surface on Zhou Yun’s skin. Each of these runes was extremely small. Even though they were separated by the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array, one could still feel the extremely pure spiritual energy within them.

Xin Yu had a horrified look on her face. She actually felt the great momentum of heaven and earth from these runes.

“I succeeded!” Zhou Yun looked at the changes on his skin and was also overjoyed.

“If that’s the case, then I can’t just stand by and watch this battle,” thought Zhou Yun. He looked at Ling Qingyun, and the two of them exchanged a look of tacit understanding. There was no need to say anything more. They understood what they needed to do at this time.

Zhou Yun raised his hand high and the muscles on his body bulged. He was a giant made of muscles! His slender hands and fair skin was nowhere to be seen.

What replaced them were strong muscles. Under the enhancement of the runes, he suddenly turned into a muscular man over three meters tall! His arm alone was three times thicker than a person’s thigh.

“Tsk! I really didn’t want to use this new state. However, we don’t have much time to worry about it!” he pouted as he gauged the state of his body. He didn’t have time to be disgusted. Right then, Ling Qingyun made her move.

Just as Zhou Yun was obstructing Xin Yu, the attack of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array was finally ready. Ling Qingyun took a deep breath. The huge manipulation of spiritual energy caused her to sweat profusely. Her clothes were soaked, and she was drenched in sweat.

“The First Heaven of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array, A Sorrowful Heaven Without Mourning. Attack!” Ling Qingyun roared loudly. Her voice reverberated through the heavens and earth with the support of the array.

Zhou Yun was also ready to attack! He knew that the most terrifying part of this attack wasn’t Ling Qingyun’s encouraging shout, but the attack itself.

The spiritual energy dragons on the array twisted frenziedly! Countless spiritual energy meridians were extracted from the array.

Each of these dragons was extremely huge! They were several meters thick and dozens of meters long. They soared in the sky. With a casual bite, they swallowed the arrogant dead souls, chewing and roaring as they did so.

The dead souls stretched out their sharp claws and attacked the spiritual energy dragons. The sound of swords clashing rang out. Even the undead souls at the foundation establishment stage could not do anything to these spiritual energy dragons.

In just a short while, the tables were turned. Countless spiritual energy dragons soared across the sky. The dead souls died begrudgingly.. The sky was filled with the soul fragments of the dead that had been torn apart.

The extremely illusory soul fragments made the entire sky even more hazy.

Amidst the haze, the spiritual energy dragons seemed to have their eyes on their new prey. They surrounded Xin Yu, blocking her way.

“Even if there are a million dead souls, they are nothing but a mantis trying to stop a chariot when faced with a true array. They can’t even withstand a single blow from it,” Ling Qingyun shouted. Now, the attack of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array had been launched. It was the moment between attacks. She reminded Zhou Yun that this was his chance to strike.

Zhou Yun could feel that she had released the suppression of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array on him! He had the authority to walk freely in the array.

“The first attack is probably just an appetizer for Xin Yu. I need to act quickly.” Zhou Yun knew that Ling Qingyun regarded him as one of the key players in this battle after he had triggered the great momentum of heaven and earth to interrupt Xin Yu’s attack!

Prior to this, he didn’t complain that Ling Qingyun treated him only as a chess piece that could land the killing blow.

“Right now, the spiritual energy dragons are surrounding and have sealed Xin Yu off. Each of these dragons are made up of extremely pure spiritual energy. They even have the support of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array. Even Xin Yu can’t break through them easily,” Zhou Yun said as he looked at the spiritual energy dragons that were circling Xin Yu.

He continued, “Therefore, if Xin Yu wants to break through the spiritual energy dragons, she must rely on the great momentum of heaven and earth. She must use it to dissipate the spiritual energy dragons.”

Zhou Yun understood what his mission was. He had to stop Xin Yu from escaping from the seal of the spiritual energy dragons.

Each attack of the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array was a level stronger than the one before.

The first attack was usually not meant to kill the enemy, but to trap them.

The attacks would only become stronger and stronger.

Zhou Yun understood Ling Qingyun’s initial plan.

She wanted to rely on the terrifying life force of the 100,000 cultivators in the Divine Gate’s Nine Heavens Array to block Xin Yu’s attack. Then, she would use the spiritual energy dragons to seal Xin Yu before attacking her.

However, Xin Yu’s strength was beyond their imagination. Therefore, after seeing Zhou Yun’s capability, Ling Qingyun did not hesitate to ask for Zhou Yun’s help.

With the previous encouraging roar from Ling Qingyun, Zhou Yun instantly understood. He released the Enlightenment State that he had comprehended when he broke through to the late foundation establishment stage!

“I have to delay her from escaping the seal of the spiritual energy dragons,” Zhou Yun declared as he stared at Xin Yu. Countless spiritual energy dragons writhed and wrapped around her, amidst the scattered soul fragments.

Zhou Yun was so nervous that he even held his breath. It was impossible for him to stop a nascent soul cultivator. The only thing he could do was to rely on the great momentum of heaven and earth that he had comprehended to make things difficult for her.

Roar! Zhou Yun suddenly heard all the spiritual energy dragons screech in pain.

He was surprised to find that their hard bodies of spiritual energy, which had not been cracked even when the countless souls attacked them, were now covered in cracks.

Zhou Yun was shocked. Xin Yu didn’t use any of the great momentum of heaven and earth to assist her. With just the strength of her body, she was close to tearing apart the spiritual energy dragons that were condensed from the spiritual energy of 100,000 cultivators.
