Lü Bei's expression darkened when he heard the Celestial Emperor's words. He subconsciously glanced at Qingyu, only to discover that Qingyu was also frowning as if he was thinking about something.
"The Qingyu Array is fine now. You can't escape."
Qingyu was very confident. As long as the Qingyu Array was fine, the Celestial Emperor wouldn't be able to escape no matter how capable he was.
The Celestial Emperor ignored Qingyu and looked at Qinchuan. "Do you have a way to solve this problem?"
Qinchuan smiled. "That's not difficult."
Qingyu snorted coldly at Qinchuan's words. He was about to speak when the Qingyu Array that trapped the Celestial Emperor suddenly shattered inch by inch!
Qingyu's expression finally changed when he saw this. He cried out involuntarily, "That's impossible!"
Qingyu couldn't believe that his proudest creation, the Qingyu Array, had shattered just like that!
Lü Bei was equally shocked. He had been partners with Qingyu for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen someone break Qingyu's Qingyu Array!
Now, because the Celestial Emperor had escaped, the situation had suddenly become five against six. Originally, their greatest reliance had been Qingyu's talisman array, but now that Qingyu's talisman array had been restrained by Qin Chuan, their original advantage had instantly become a disadvantage!
"How did you do it?!"
Qingyu stared fixedly at Qinchuan with a ferocious expression. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he became an eighth-grade array master!
Qinchuan smiled at the crazed Qingyu. "You're an eighth-grade array master, but I'm a ninth-grade array master."
"That's impossible!"
Qingyu screamed again. He absolutely didn't believe that a ninth-grade array master existed in this universe. An eighth-grade array master was the limit. Spiritual power simply couldn't reach that level!
Qinchuan smiled at Qingyu's incredulous expression. "Just because you don't believe it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Understand?"
Even though Qinchuan was a ninth grade Talisman Array Master, his expertise was limited to the Dao of Lightning Arrays. However, this was enough for Qinchuan to be proud of.
As for breaking Qingyu's talisman array, it was not difficult for him to do so with the strength of his Spiritual Power.
Looking at Qinchuan's solemn expression, Qingyu felt that his confidence had completely collapsed. He originally thought that a Tier 8 Talisman Array Master was the limit of the Talisman Array Dao, but now someone was telling him that there was a Tier 9 above Tier 8. He didn't want to believe in Qinchuan's words, but Qinchuan easily broke the Qingyu Grand Array that he was most confident in. The facts were right in front of him, so he couldn't have any wishful thinking!
"So Level 8 isn't the limit. There's still Level 9 above it. But … why do I feel the existence of a ceiling?"
Qingyu murmured. His eyes were unfocused, and his mind seemed to have suffered a great impact.
Qinchuan smiled. Since he could destroy an enemy's confidence with just a few words, he didn't mind saying a few more words. Thinking of this, Qinchuan said, "You feel the existence of a ceiling because you can only go so far. Your … talent is lacking."
Your … talent is lacking.
When he heard these words from Qin Chuan, Qing Yu felt as if his entire mind had collapsed. Since the beginning, he'd always considered himself to be a peerless genius in the Dao of Talisman Formations, and the people in his surroundings thought the same. Everyone felt that he would become one of the strongest Talisman Formation Masters in history and become the glory of the clan. However, a peerless genius like him had been evaluated as lacking natural talent by others today!
"I …"
Qingyu's gaze was lost, and his mind was in chaos. Lü Bei was shocked when she saw this scene, and she hurriedly said, "Qingyu, don't listen to his nonsense. It's impossible for him to be a Level 9 Talisman Array Master. There's absolutely no Level 9 Talisman Array Master in this world!"
Qingyu calmed down slightly when he heard this, and then he asked Lü Bei, "If he isn't a Level 9 Talisman Array Master, then how was my Azureuniverse Grand Formation broken?"
"This …."
Lü Bei was dumbstruck by Qingyu's question, and she didn't know how to answer it.
At this moment, the people in the surroundings felt extremely strange when they saw this scene. They clearly came to rescue Qingyu, and the other came to ambush him. How could it have inexplicably become like this?
But then again, they didn't want Qingyu's confidence to collapse. So long as they dealt with Qinchuan, then they believed that everything would be fine!
Right when everyone was about to make a move against Qinchuan, an enormous azure talisman diagram suddenly appeared above them. This talisman diagram was profound and complicated, and the aura it emitted was extremely shocking!
"This is …."
Qingyu raised his head to look at the talisman diagram above him. He'd never seen a talisman diagram with such shocking might. The strength of this aura … far surpassed a Level 8 Talisman Diagram!
Moreover, only a Level 9 Talisman Diagram that he'd never heard of in the past was capable of accomplishing this!
Qinchuan … really is a Level 9 Talisman Array Master!
Not to mention Qingyu, even Thélon and the others who were familiar with Qinchuan were slightly stunned when they saw this talisman diagram. Earlier, they'd thought that Qinchuan had fooled Qingyu with a few words, but it turned out that there really was a Level 9 Talisman Array Master in this universe!
When faced with the extremely astounded gazes of everyone, Qinchuan said indifferently, "This is the Level 9 Talisman Array that I possess, and it's called the Fury of the Lightning God!"
Rumble!
As soon as Qinchuan's voice fell, a series of thunderous roars resounded from the talisman diagram. Under everyone's shocked gazes, a figure as large as a planet slowly emerged from the talisman diagram. This person held a huge hammer in his right hand and an awl in his left. The aura he exuded was astonishing, comparable to that of a Demigod!
"Is this a Level 9 Talisman Array?
There really is a Level 9 Talisman Array! "
Qingyu couldn't help but tremble when he saw the Lightning God formed by the power of thunder. This wasn't because of fear, but because he was excited because he'd found a way forward!
However, at this moment, the Lightning God raised the huge hammer in his hand and struck the awl in his left hand. A thick bolt of lightning struck the trembling Qingyu from the awl!
In the next moment, Qingyu seemed to have evaporated from the world and disappeared!
Hiss!
Everyone felt their scalps go numb when they saw this scene. Qingyu was reduced to ashes with just one strike!
The power of this Level 9 Talisman Array was a little too terrifying!
"This …"
Lü Bei was completely stunned. Qingyu was standing right beside him, but he disappeared without a trace. The lightning strike was so precise that it didn't affect him at all, but he couldn't help but feel endless fear in his heart!
Boom!
When the sound of the second hammer falling sounded, the Green Clam was also turned into ashes!
