Qingfeng quickly led Mengyao Xu, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Li Yang, and the others towards the borders of Lingyun.
Along the way, Qingfeng met more refugees, who were all self-cultivators and citizens that were living near the borders of Lingyun. Many were wounded, with missing limbs, while some had already died from their injuries along the way.
After Qingfeng asked the crowd, he found out that the Fiery-Sun Emperor had already passed the Lingyun borders and was now attacking all the self-cultivators in Lingyun.
Every city he met along his path, the Fiery-Sun Emperor would destroy the walls and then brutally kill all the people inside without any mercy.
When Qingfeng heard the refugees, his face grew green in anger. He never knew that the Fiery-Sun Emperor would be so despicable. He knew that these self-cultivators weren’t as powerful as him, yet they were still killed them without mercy.
Qingfeng’s guilt grew, because he knew that Lingyun was experiencing all this torment due to his actions.
Black Puppy said on the side, “Qingfeng, judging from what these refugees have said, the Fiery-Sun Emperor will be here soon. We shouldn’t go over there; instead we should stay put and set up traps or array formations here.”
Qingfeng nodded, realizing that Black Puppy was right. He had a thorough understanding of array formations and could use the geography here to set up a massive trap. Once the Fiery-Sun Emperor and his troops arrived, they would fall into a quagmire of death and misery.
Qingfeng started doing so without hesitation; he immediately led Mengyao, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Li Yang, and the Desert Giant to gather spiritual trees to create spiritual arrows.
He then took out vitality stones, and using the tall geographical setting of the valley, he set up a massive fifth level supreme grade array formation trap.
This was the most powerful array formation Qingfeng had set up in his entire cultivation career. He used the tall height of the mountains, the depth of the valleys, the sharpness of the rocks, and the surging force of the rivers to arrange several Hell talisman script array formations.
Not only did Qingfeng set array formation, he also used the spiritual wood to make wood stakes and wooden arrows that were placed all around the array formation. As soon as someone stepped on it, these arrangements will automatically attack and shoot everyone in sight.
After everything was arranged, Qingfeng said, “Mengyao, let’s find a place to hide, and wait until the Fiery-Sun Emperor and his troops arrive.”
Mengyao nodded and found a hidden cave with Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and the others.
After they entered, they lifted a massive rock to enclose the cave, leaving only a peephole that allowed them to look outside quietly.
Qingfeng quietly said, “Puppy, use you demonic beast aura to call out a flying demonic beast, and help us to find out what is happening outside.”
Black Puppy nodded and unleashed its Ancestral Dog Aura, suppressing a demonic sparrow, and commanding it to fly into the sky and bring back news.
Shortly afterwards, the sparrow flew back and said, “The Fiery-Sun Emperor is ten kilometers away and will arrive within a few minutes.”
Right on cue, a few minutes later, the Fiery-Sun Emperor and his one million soldiers arrived right outside the tall mountain range.
The Fiery-Sun Emperor had thick brows and red fire-like hair. Dressed in a dragon gown, he was emitting a powerful aura that shook the entire space. He flew in the very front, but then stopped with a frown as shock filled his eyes.
He felt that there was something wrong with the tall mountain ranges before him, possibly because of his eighth level supreme realm senses.
Then, an armoured general walked over and asked, “Emperor, why did you stop?”
The Fiery-Sun Emperor said, “I sense something odd in the mountains.”
The black-armored general laughed and said, “Emperor, I’ll lead one hundred thousand troops inside and wipe out everything hiding in the mountain range before us.”
The black-armored general waved his hands, and led the one hundred thousand troops into the tall mountain range.
However, just as all of them rushed into the mountains, the scenery before them changed, as if they had suddenly been transported to heaven on earth. The scenery changed from the mountain range to a lakeside pavilion filled with beautiful women, wine, and food.
When they approached the beautiful women, massive amounts of spiritual swords rushed in from all corners as wooden arrows incessantly pierced into their bodies.
Splash, splash, splash…
The spiritual wood stakes pierced the hearts of the soldiers, causing them to fall to the ground as blood covered their bodies.
All the soldiers trapped in the array began crying out in pain, and even the black-armored general was deeply wounded as an arrow pierced through his leg.
The Fiery-Sun Emperor’s eyes grew cold when he saw this.
He knew that there was something odd in the mountain range before them, but who knew that someone would have set a trap? It was also a very powerful attack array formation, such that half of the troops sent in were either killed or wounded.
The Fiery-Sun Emperor’s eyes filled with fury as he activated his fire-element vital essence to form a blazing flame that he threw towards the mountains an attempt to destroy the traps.
However, a massive repulsion force appeared on the tall mountains, originating from the array formation’s defensive, sending the blazing flame back.
The Fiery-Sun Emperor’s face turned livid as he said, “Interesting, it’s a fifth level supreme trap array formation. It seems like I’ll have to give it my full effort.”
The Fiery-Sun Emperor pulled out a sword that was two fingers wide, one meter and sixty centimetres long, and fire-red all over. It was made from flame meteorite stones, along with dark steel crystals.
On the surface of this red sword was engraved ancient red talisman scripts. All of those ancient talisman scripts were incredibly powerful, passively unleashed energy so destructive that it seemed to shake the heavens and earth, cracking the space around it.
This sword was called the Fire Supreme Sword and was incredibly famous in the five southern Crimson Fire Continent kingdoms.
Qingfeng saw the red sword from the cave peephole and was shocked.
He clearly felt the power of this red sword, allowing him to estimate that it was at least an eighth level supreme-grade spiritual treasure.
Qingfeng knew that his defensive array formation wouldn’t be able to withstand a single attack, as the Fiery-Sun Emperor flourished his Fire Supreme Sword and slashed forward.
The Fire Supreme Sword was covered in scorching sword energy reaching horrifically high temperatures, which heavily clashed onto Qingfeng’s defensive array formation, shattering it and making it disappear.
At the same time, the traps Qingfeng had set were all destroyed by the fierce sword energy the Fire Supreme Sword unleashed.
Suddenly, the Fiery-Sun Emperor’s Fire Supreme Sword tore through the air to form another ray of red sword energy that charged towards the cave Qingfeng was hiding in.
