Chapter 3539 Mountain Protection Array

Gong Qingxuan glanced at her, "You, a Sect traitor, are not qualified to tell me whether I am fit to be the Sect Master!"

He Honglian looked at the crowd behind her and shouted loudly, "Did you see that? This is your Sect Master.

You shouldn't support such a person. Stand out now, and the Immortal King will surely uphold justice for you."

"Disciples of Third Peak, heed my command! Open the protective barrier now, and the Immortal King will surely reward you handsomely…"

"Disciples of Fifth Peak, heed my command! Open the protective barrier now, and I guarantee your future prosperity…"

These three fellows shouted in unison, intending to incite the Liuguang Sword Sect's people to betray them.

As long as there was chaos inside and the protective barrier of the grand Formation was opened, everything would be resolved.

However, the wish was beautiful, but reality was cruel. After shouting for a long time, there was no movement inside. Instead, mocking gazes were cast upon them.

Facts proved that Gong Qingxuan's prestige throughout the entire Sect was unparalleled.

Previously, only Zu Fangkui and Bai Lingpu were traitors, and they only represented themselves.

Even now, despite their personal incitement, not a single Disciple under them followed suit in betrayal.

Hua Bingyu angrily said, "You three shameless traitors of the Sect, how dare you still sow discord here? Why don't you quickly scram!"

The three of them looked embarrassed. Zu Fangkui shouted, "If you remain stubborn, just wait until the Liuguang Sword Sect is conquered. At that time, all of you will suffer the Immortal King's punishment!"

Seeing that their defection attempt failed, Qingwei Celestial King's expression darkened, "I'll ask you one more time: are you handing him over or not?"

Gong Qingxuan's expression was firm, "I'll also say it again: the Liuguang Sword Sect never hands over its Disciples to others!"

"Alright, Gong Qingxuan, do you really think a mere protective barrier can stop us?"

Qingwei Celestial King was completely enraged. With a wave of his hand, "Break this barrier for me!"

As soon as he gave the order, Lu Gongming was the first to charge forward. The long sword in his hand transformed into a Sword Qi several tens of feet long, fiercely striking the protective barrier.

Under everyone's gaze, his sword heavily struck the golden light shield.

But the result was just that: the Sword Qi dissipated, and the golden light shield remained as solid as before, showing no signs of breaking.

Everyone around them frowned slightly. Hearing about it was one thing; experiencing it personally was another. No one expected the Liuguang Sword Sect's protective Formation to be so powerful!

As expected of a Peak Ninth-tier Formation, it treated the Immortal King's attack as nothing.

"Attack together!"

Immortal King Jifeng and Immortal King Donghua also gave orders. Their subordinates swarmed forward, attacking the protective barrier together.

For a time, Sword Qi flashed, saber Qi intertwined, and Sword Qi crisscrossed. Countless powerhouses attacked together, and the might was enough to be called world-shaking.

But even so, the Liuguang Sword Sect's mountain-protecting grand Formation remained incomparably solid, not even a slight tremor, and there was no sign of it being breached.

Seeing this result, Immortal King Donghua was furious.

He soared into the air, and the great sword in his hand unleashed a hundred-foot Sword Qi, instantly suppressing the might of everyone around him.

"Break for me!"

With an angry roar, his sword heavily struck the protective barrier.

This time, there was finally a slight effect. The golden light shield emitted a faint tremor, but that was all. It quickly returned to its original state.

Everyone around them widened their eyes. This mountain-protecting grand Formation was too strong, wasn't it?

This was a full-power strike from an Immortal King Peak, yet it couldn't be shaken.

"Damn it, what kind of Formation is this?"

Immortal King Donghua landed on the ground, extremely annoyed, and turned to look at He Honglian, Zu Fangkui, and Bai Lingpu.

"You are all from the Liuguang Sword Sect. Do you know the method to break it?"

Bai Lingpu said, "Immortal King, there are only two ways to break this protective barrier."

Immortal King Donghua snorted, "Speak!"

"The first way is to have absolute strength and be able to break it."

"Nonsense!"

Immortal King Donghua was clearly extremely dissatisfied with this method. If he had that strength, he would have already broken the barrier. Why would he need to ask around here?

"Next one."

Bai Lingpu awkwardly said, "The second method is consumption. The Liuguang Sword Sect's Formation was established by the founding Ancestral Master. It is rumored to have reached Ninth-tier Peak, just a little short of Tenth-tier.

However, its drawback is also very obvious: the consumption is too great. The amount of immortal crystals consumed every day is astronomical.

If we continuously attack, according to the Liuguang Sword Sect's reserves, it can only last for at most seven days."

"Seven days? Then I'll let him live for another seven days!"

Immortal King Donghua's eyes flashed with killing intent. He turned to look at Immortal King Jifeng and Qingwei Celestial King.

"How about this? Our Three Great Celestial Domains will take turns attacking. After seven days, this barrier will surely be breached!"

"Alright."

Immortal King Jifeng and Qingwei Celestial King also knew that this was the only way. So, the Three Great Celestial Domains began to take turns attacking, continuously launching attacks against the mountain-protecting grand Formation.

On the Liuguang Sword Sect's side, Gong Qingxuan led everyone back, returning to her grand hall, with Hua Bingyu and Feng Zhiwu following closely behind.

"Senior Sister, this doesn't seem like a solution. After seven days, our immortal crystals will be depleted, and the mountain-protecting grand Formation will no longer be effective."

Hua Bingyu frowned tightly. She was the Grand Elder, in charge of all Sect affairs, and was very clear about the Sect's resources.

"It's fine. We'll see when the time comes."

Gong Qingxuan's voice was calm, as if she hadn't taken this matter to heart at all.

Hua Bingyu said, "Senior Sister, you previously peered into the heavenly secrets and said that a great tribulation would befall the Sect. Is it this current tribulation?"

"No! The level is not high enough."

Gong Qingxuan shook her head, "Although the Three Great Celestial Domains are attacking together this time, they are only targeting my Liuguang Sword Sect.

The great tribulation I peered into targets the entire Lower Heaven Region. Compared to that, this current matter is nothing at all."

"This…"

Hua Bingyu's heart sank completely. She had just clearly seen the strength of the Three Great Celestial Domains: there were twenty to thirty Immortal Kings alone, and hundreds of Great Luo Immortals.

Such powerful strength would be a devastating disaster for any Sect, yet Senior Sister still said it was nothing. How terrifying would the true tribulation be then?

"Alright, don't worry so much. Everything has its own destiny."

Gong Qingxuan paused for a moment, then said, "Junior Sister, have you thought about a question?

If I leave, who will succeed me as the Sect Master of this Sect?"

"Uh…"

Hua Bingyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Senior Sister, how could this be…"

But before she could finish speaking, Gong Qingxuan raised her hand to interrupt her.

"Half a year ago, I had thought about this question, and there really wasn't a good answer.

At that time, your cultivation was only Great Luo Immortal, and your talent was suppressed, so your improvement speed was extremely slow, making you unsuitable for the position of Sect Master.

But now it's different. He healed your injuries and restored your former talent.

You are now an Immortal King-level powerhouse, so you naturally have the qualifications to be the Sect Master.

Of course, the most suitable person is still that Little fellow himself.

Although his cultivation is a bit low now, his future prospects are absolutely limitless.

It's just a pity that a Prodigy who can attract the Extinction Thunder Tribulation probably cannot be kept by the Liuguang Sword Sect.

So, how about this: if Xiao Fan agrees, let him take over as Sect Master; if he doesn't agree, then you will."

Speaking of this, the beautiful eyes under the mask looked over, "How do you think about this?"
