Chapter 90 - Escape? A New Quasi-emperor
"Tens of thousands of years, just waiting for today! Grand array, Rise!"
The Nether Lord's decree sounded.
The pillar of light on the altar began to twist violently.
"Grand array, Rise!"
The voice of the Nether Lord came from the altar.
The pillar of light became even thicker.
The corners of Ye Changge's mouth curled up.
"I see. The Asura Ghost Region's ambition to unify the eastern region and their recent actions are all for this."
In that instant, he understood what these people wanted to do.
This altar was very magical.
It used these people's strange powers and the power of faith as its motivation.
The light pillar that was shot out connected to the array formation on the ground.
According to Ye Changge's deduction, the top of this light pillar should be near the central region.
Through this period of investigation, he had already understood the basic structure of the array formation.
"The position of the destructive array targets the Hidden Edge Sect. No wonder I didn't feel anything strange even after being up there for so long."
"If they want to use this method to open the array, they have to get my approval first."
Smiling, Ye Changge raised his palm, and a beam of divine light shot into the array seal.
At the altar, the Nether Lord was still carefully guiding the energy passage.
The power of faith of the Qi Huang clan was too huge. In order to prevent the altar from being destroyed, a realm-breaking powerhouse like him was needed to stabilize the energy passage.
As time slowly passed, all of the Qi Huang clan's faces were filled with anticipation.
However, the Nether Lord's smile slowly vanished.
He sensed that something was wrong.
It had been too long!
Why did it take so long for the altar to connect to the ground and at the same time, to move the formation?
Why did the array not formation change at all?!
The Nether Lord's expression became more and more serious.
"Nether Lord!"
Finally, after so long, he started to feel a bit anxious.
"Nether Lord, what's the matter?"
On the other end of the altar, ghost lord from the Asura Ghost Region's headquarters asked.
He also felt strange.
As one of the array formations, if the sealing array formation changed, the Asura Ghost Region's headquarters should also react.
"Is there any change to the formation?"
Nether Lord asked.
He could not use the soul consciousness of the altar to communicate, so he could only speak.
He was also worried that the Qi Huang clan, who were praying, would become anxious and affect the energy supply of the altar.
He could only ask half-heartedly.
"There's no change at the moment. But what happened?"
The Ghost Lord's puzzled voice was heard as well.
Hearing this, yellow spring's face turned black.
"What's going on? Is there something wrong with the method of unsealing?"
The Ghost Lord's voice continued.
The kneeling Qi Huang clan was a little unstable.
Some people whispered to each other while others looked up.
"Silence! Keep praying!"
A black-robed person controlled the order.
"Impossible. This is something our Qi Huang clan has deduced over tens of thousands of years. Among them, there are many quasi-emperors!"
The Nether Lord was very confident in the method of breaking the array.
After all, the Qi Huang clan had extraordinary talent and had been trapped underground for tens of thousands of years, so they were very familiar with the array.
They had spent tens of thousands of years researching this array, hoping that one day they would be able to escape from this predicament.
Among the experts who had studied it, there was no lack of quasi-emperors!
In a place where resources were so scarce and spiritual energy was almost non-existent, a quasi-emperor who relied on absorbing the energy of the earth vein to become stronger was extremely talented!
If these quasi-emperors could break through to the ground, they would all have the qualifications to try for the emperor position.
"Since there's no problem with the method, then we can continue. Nothing is abnormal here."
Although the Nether Lord was puzzled, he was still on the ground, so he appeared to be more patient.
Time passed.
The altar was still dazzling, and the light pillar was still thick and strong.
There was still no movement from the array formation.
Some of the people praying could no longer remain calm.
They had been looking forward to this day for so many years. It seemed that the day of hope would not come so easily.
The Nether Lord's forehead was already covered in sweat.
A realm-breaking expert's forehead was covered in sweat. This was an inconceivable matter.
"This, what the hell is going on!"
He was very angry.
He activated his spiritual senses and tried his best to probe the huge array.
There was still no reaction.
More and more people could no longer maintain their determination.
The light pillar on the altar started to distort.
It was no longer stable.
Even the black-robed men were not in the mood to maintain order.
All of them were probing the situation of the array.
It was calm and there was no reaction.
"Nether Lord senior, what's going on? Is there a way to solve it? Is there anything I can do to help?"
The Nether Lord was also very anxious.
This was a mission that the Asura Ghost Realm had persisted on for millennia.
There was a chance of success, so why was there no movement?
Ye Changge continued to observe from afar.
He found a strange place.
The power cultivated by these Qi Huang clansmen was very similar to the power of the array formation.
"Could it be that they comprehended the cultivation method from the array formation?"
"Who is that Earth God? Why does he have such a strange ability?"
"The believers believe in the power produced by him. Why can they communicate with both sides of the array formation?"
One had to know that the level of this array formation was very high.
Ye Changge personally came to the sealed land and felt the power of this array.
Ye Changge was certain that this was an array that could only be set up by an Emperor.
For that Earth God to have an impression of this level of array, its existence itself was probably Emperor-level.
"Interesting."
Ye Changge continued to observe.
In any case, he had already locked down the array.
With him, the Great Emperor, constantly tidying up the array and providing energy to the array, these people would not be able to break out of the array.
And at the altar.
More and more people could not hold on any longer. They began to tremble.
The supply of energy to the altar became smaller and smaller, almost to the point of being cut off.
The Nether Lord was so angry that his body was trembling!
"Bastard!"
He roared angrily.
"What on Earth is going on?!"
A powerful aura burst out, and the black-robed man standing behind him was sent flying.
The Qi Huang clansmen who were crouching at the back were sent flying in large swaths.
The veins on the Nether Lord's face bulged.
A strange energy was constantly circulating in his body, and his aura was rapidly increasing.
Boom!
At this moment, he felt his spiritual sense extend infinitely, and his perception rapidly spread out along the formation, almost covering the entire eastern region.
After waiting for so many years, the Nether Lord was filled with hope and despair.
He had been combing the power of faith and the altar, and had indirectly come into contact with the aura of heaven and earth outside.
Under the intense strife and hardship, he had broken through!
The new quasi-emperor of the Qi Huang clan had been born.
His cultivation was more profound. Those who understood this matter felt mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.
After so many years, it was indeed worth being happy that another clan member had advanced to quasi-emperor.
But now, there was no response from the array.
It was very likely that they still would not be able to get out.
In the stagnant atmosphere, the Nether Lord's expression changed drastically.
The surprise of not having a breakthrough at all made him seem incomparably terrified.
Through the increased senses he had when he broke through, the Nether Lord discovered Ye Changge's figure!
"Who is that person? Why is he so powerful? His cultivation is unfathomable!"
