In the current space-time continuum, only a Progenitor could break Progenitor Wen's sourcebox array by force. Only a Celestial Master would be able to do so.
Since they wanted to destroy Yi Xian Academy, they had naturally thought of Progenitor Wen's sourcebox array, so they had invited Mu Shang.
Mu Shang looked up at the phoenix and dark phoenix, and his eyes were filled with admiration. "Progenitor Wen is indeed an Origin Array Celestial Master. This sourcebox array is truly unique and different from ordinary sourcebox arrays. It uses the danger of the sourcebox to simulate the phoenix and dark phoenix, and there are even hidden dangers within. It won't be easy to break through."
Wu Yao asked, "Is there a way to break through?"
Mu Shang smiled. "Any sourcebox array needs to be maintained. Without an Origin Array Master to maintain it, it'll just be a dead array. There's naturally a way."
"Then I'll have to trouble Celestial Master Mu. Many thanks," Wu Yao said.
Mu Shang smiled. "I should be the one thanking the seniors. It's this junior's honor to be able to exchange blows with Progenitor Wen." He then approached the sourcebox array and directly entered it. The strange sourcebox array did not contain any killing intent towards him, and the path he took was rather strange as well. He could not understand it at all.
Dean Wen's expression turned ugly, as this was an Origin Array Celestial Master. In terms of cultivation, both he and Progenitor Wen surpassed Mu Shang, but in terms of lockbreaking, Mu Shang was the youngest Lockbreaker in history. Even Progenitor Wen might not be able to compare to him. Progenitor Wen had only become a Celestial Master after becoming a Progenitor, while Mu Shang was only an Emissary.
This was especially true now that Mu Shang had broken through the array and said that it was a dead array. Dean Wen was clearly an array master of the Realmplains and could maintain the sourcebox array, but Mu Shang did not care about him at all.
Mu Shang only cared about the Origin Array Celestial Master and Progenitor Wen, not Wen Lai.
"Since that's the case, then let me experience the abilities of the youngest Origin Array Celestial Master." Dean Wen then entered the sourcebox array and attacked Mu Shang through the phoenix and dark phoenix.
Mu Shang's expression was calm, and he smiled. "I'm honored."
Within the academy, Mr. Tang, Mr. Zheng, Mr. Wen, Mr. Wei, and Mr. Huai all watched on. As long as the sourcebox array could not stop the Four Scales, then the academy would be finished.
The Cooker God had no chance of breaking through to become an Progenitor. and the others knew this as well.
In the depths of the academy, the Culinary God opened his eyes and then closed them again, isolating himself from all external disturbances. If he wanted to break through the Progenitor Array, he needed to calm his mind. Before the sourcebox array was broken, he needed to calm his mind before he could attempt to break through.
Once the Ancestral Realm Origin Tribulation descended, no one would be able to interfere. It all depended on whether or not he could succeed.
One Day.
Two days.
Three Days
…
Ten days had passed. Everyone was looking at the Fire Phoenix Dark Phoenix. At this moment, the Fire Phoenix Dark Phoenix had become much dimmer and had become transparent.
Mu Shang's smile grew even more radiant as he stood less than a thousand meters away from the Fire Phoenix and Dark Phoenix. Across from him, Dean Wen's face was pale, as he had lost. He had been unable to maintain the operation of the sourcebox array, and the array had crumbled layer by layer under Mu Shang's lockbreaking. Furthermore, as a Half-Ancestor, Dean Wen could not attack Mu Shang while he was inside the sourcebox array. Very quickly, the Fire Phoenix and Dark Phoenix vanished.
Dean Wen looked at Mu Shang's confident and arrogant smile, and he wished that he could dispel the sourcebox array and use his Half-Ancestor cultivation to forcefully kill Mu Shang. Unfortunately, it would be too difficult, and Mu Shang would not be unprepared.
"Wen Lai, come back. There's no need to resist anymore. You can't," Ce Donglai said.
Dean Wen had no choice but to leave the sourcebox array. Rather than competing with Mu Shang in lockbreaking, he might as well save his strength to deal with the outside world.
The five Half Martial Ancestors had bought more time for the Culinary God.
Without Dean Wen's interference, Mu Shang's lockbreaking speed increased.
Many people in the Starry Sky Tree gathered their attention. Ever since the establishment of Yi Xian Academy, even the Lu family had people who studied there. The Four Way Scales, the Nong family, and the Liu family — which family had not sent their disciples there? Across the starry sky, quite a number of elites had graduated from Yi Xian Academy.
They also didn't want the academy to be destroyed. However, under the tyrannical power of the Four Way Balance, Yi Xian Academy couldn't possibly withstand it.
Outside, Xia Ziheng heaved a sigh of relief. In the future, he wouldn't have to waste his breath on Wen Lai and the other old fellows. He actually hoped that these old fellows would resist. They would either be killed or thrown into the back of the battlefield. No, they would be thrown into the new continent so that they could release the final fireworks for humanity.
In the Pinnacle Realm, Xia Taili, Wang Su, and the rest of the expeditionary army who had just returned also looked at Yi Xian Academy with complicated expressions.
Liu Hao, Nong Sanniang, and the others even asked their families if they could help Yi Xian Academy. However, at this moment, no one could help Yi Xian Academy. The Liu family's old ancestor and the others knew that the Four Way Scales had suffered in the Abandoned Wasteland. Now, whoever helped Yi Xian Academy would have to face the Four Way Scales' wrath.
Not everyone had the ability to face the Four Way Scales directly.
They could restrict each other, but there were some things that they couldn't interfere with.
On this day, Yi Xian Academy was about to be destroyed under the watchful eyes of countless people. This should be a rare event in the Starry Sky Tree.
However, no one had expected that the real event would come from the Pinnacle Realm — from the Wang family.
Xia Shenji and the others didn't pay any attention to Yi Xian Academy at all. Instead, they stared at a valley below the Wang family's continent. That was the entrance to the New Void Corridor, which connected the Starry Sky Tree to the Fifth Mainland.
Ten days had passed, and it was time for Lu Yin to fulfill his promise and lead the cultivators to take over the Fourth Mainland's formation bases.
The entire Sovereign Realm was looking at the valley, and they didn't know when Lu Yin and the other cultivators would appear.
However, it was definitely today.
Just as they were thinking about this, a figure emerged from the New Void Corridor and appeared in the valley.
At this moment, the valley had long since been emptied, and there were no longer any cultivators in the Starry Sky Tree. Even the Wang family's cultivators had returned to the continent above.
When this figure appeared, it instantly attracted the attention of the Sovereign Realm and the Wang family's continent. Countless gazes gathered on this figure.
The person who appeared had a calm expression. He looked up and saw the Wang family's continent. Dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he raised a hand. The void was peeled away, and it extended to the entire valley.
Above the Wang family's continent, Wang Zheng solemnly said, "Domain, Void God Realm."
The newcomer was Hen Xin, one of the four Half-Ancestors who had come to support the fourth formation base. He was also the first Half-Ancestor to arrive.
Xia Shenji's gaze was cold. "The first one to appear is already a Half-Ancestor. I wonder how many Half-Ancestors the Fifth Mainland will send."
As soon as he finished speaking, the second figure walked out. It was Nine Glories, followed by the Beast Emperor.
"Astral Beast?"
Wang Fan was astonished.
The Mist Ancestor was shocked. "It seems like the Astral Beast Domain has been conquered by this brat. That means that the entire Fifth Mainland has been conquered by him. Amazing."
After the Beast Emperor, Elder Chan walked out.
When he saw Elder Chan, Bai Wangyuan frowned. Why did this person look so familiar?
He felt like he had seen him somewhere before, but he just couldn't remember where.
"Four Half-Ancestors. Lu Xiaoxuan wants to defeat the other formations," the Dragon Ancestor said.
Wang Fan replied, "I can't wait for him to take over the entire battlefield."
"Yes."
"That would require him to have the ability to do so," the Dragon Ancestor said.
The Mist Ancestor replied, "It's not that he doesn't."
The Dragon Ancestor was shocked. "Senior, what did you say?"
The Mist Ancestor rolled his eyes. "Don't call me senior. It's like I'm much older than you. You're older than all of us."
The Dragon Ancestor was embarrassed.
Xia Shenji's face darkened as he recalled the countless cultivators he had seen in the Fifth Mainland. There were more than ten Half-Ancestors, and a few of them gave him an unusual feeling. In addition to the number of cultivators in the Fifth Mainland, it wasn't impossible for them to take over the battlefield.
They had the ability to do so.
While the Rulers were shocked, Wang Zheng and the other cultivators of the Wang Family were also shocked. Although they had a rough understanding of the Fifth Mainland's strength through the expeditionary army and knew that there was a group of people from the Above Heavens era, the appearance of four Half-Ancestors at once was still very shocking.
One had to know that not counting the battlefield, no family in the Four Sides of the Balance could produce four Half-Ancestors.
This meant that Lu Xiaoxuan's strength was enough to surpass the Four Sides of the Balance. Of course, this didn't include the Ancestor realm.
"Bring Wang Shang here," Wang Zheng ordered.
Wang Shang was brought back to the Starry Sky of the Trees with the expeditionary army, and Bai Wangyuan returned him to the Wang Family.
Wang Shang had originally thought that the bitter experience was over. Ever since Wang Si had been killed, he had been on tenterhooks. However, when he returned to his family, what awaited him was an interrogation, and his identity as an Unbounded Assassin had been exposed.
At first, Wang Shang had wanted to quibble, but the Xia family had destroyed the Unbounded Assassin's headquarters. There was irrefutable evidence, and Wang Shang was now imprisoned, which was even worse than when he had been on the Fifth Mainland.
After Elder Chan, the Heavenly Sins Army walked out. This army was nothing special, as it was mainly composed of the Daynight clan and the sylvan dragon clan. The Wang Family didn't care much about them, but after the Heavenly Sins Army, the Lu Xuanjun Army, walked out.
There were more than ten thousand Explorers and above, and nearly ten thousand of them were Explorers created by the Great Yu Empire.
Ever since Lu Yin had established the Lu Xuanjun Army, he had been constantly creating androids. Although the production had stopped for a while due to various reasons, Lu Yin had continued to create androids when he returned, and he had also worked with the Technocracy to increase the production speed of androids.
Now, the Lu Xuanjun Army had over ten thousand Explorers androids, which was quite a large number. Even the Wang Family was surprised.
Coupled with the Cruisers, Hunters, and Enlighters, this was a decent force that could at least protect the array foundations.
"Hey, what are they wearing?"
An elder from the Wang Family asked.
Wang Shang was brought over, and his face was haggard. He looked much older than before.
Wang Zheng pointed down. "Do you have any understanding of the cultivators in the Wasteland?"
Wang Shang looked down and thought for a moment before nodding. "This is the Lu Xuanjun Army, an army that Lu Xiaoxuan personally established. When we arrived at the Wasteland, we faced the threat of the Eternals, and this army fought. They aren't very strong, but their equipment is quite impressive. If it weren't for Lu Buzheng and the other Half-Ancestors watching over them, this army would have been taken away by the Three Ultimates Sky Gate."
During the twenty years that Lu Yin had disappeared, there were some things that he did not know about. For example, Hen Xin had set his sights on the Lu Xuanjun Army. More accurately, he had set his sights on the Lu Xuanjun Army, as well as the Fifth Pagoda.
Many things had automatically disappeared after Lu Yin's return, and his subordinates had not reported everything to him. Thus, Lu Yin did not know that his Lu Xuanjun Army had almost been destroyed.
