Chapter 594 Chapter 593 Shock at the Ancestral Court
At this moment, she was intently watching the lines drawn by Tang San, much like the Peacock Demon King herself. Her understanding of Spiritual Power seemed to be increasing and changing as well.
When the staff from Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce delivered the items Tang San specified he needed, a magic array with a diameter of five meters was almost fully inscribed on the living room floor.
What Tang San needed were some metals and gemstones.
After obtaining these items, he cut some of them and then began to set them into the array on the ground.
There was an order to the setting, and it also involved the infusion of bloodline power and Spiritual Power. As each gemstone or metal was set, the array would invisibly undergo some energy changes, forcing the Peacock Demon King to strengthen the energy of the isolation barrier to prevent the leaking of the array's energy fluctuations.
Misty silver light began to rise gradually from the array.
The Peacock Demon King finally couldn't help asking, "Will this array remain after we teleport away?"
Tang San shook his head and said, "No, this is a single-use Teleportation Array. Once we teleport away, it will be destroyed. Even if beings at the Emperor Level were to intercept us, at most they could only use divine consciousness to lock down the vast space outside the Ancestor Court. Such a blockade can only detect our departure, but cannot stop it. At most, they would pursue us at the first opportunity upon our discovery. If we teleport far enough, breaking through their blockade will become much easier."
The Peacock Demon King inhaled deeply, "Is there a possibility that the array could become a permanent, commonly used one?"
Tang San said, "I need to study it, and I need more materials to research. Moreover, every teleportation will consume a lot of materials. If we have sufficient materials in the future, and enough space to set up an ultra-large Teleportation Array, then teleporting directly from Jiali City to the Ancestor Court wouldn't be impossible."
The Peacock Demon King felt as if her understanding was being overturned. As a controller of space and the patriarch of the Peacock Demon Clan, she was certain that even her ancestors, the Great Peacock Demon, could not do this. The spatial attribute knowledge that this young man possessed was definitely beyond what the known Peacock Demon Clan understood.
"Asura, although I don't know how you have obtained the bloodline power of my Peacock Demon Clan, as long as we can return safely this time, I will grant you a status within our clan. I hope you can..."
"I'm about to set up the Formation Eye. Thank you, City Lord, I don't need any status. Being Pretty Girl's personal guard commander is enough for me," said Tang San.
As he spoke, he simultaneously threw out six gemstones, which landed at the six corners of the array. Immediately, the previously misty silver light suddenly intensified, turning the entire room into a sea of silver.
"Enter the array," Tang San said in a deep voice.
The Peacock Demon King and Pretty Girl quickly stepped into the array.
Tang San instructed the Peacock Demon King to stand in the center of the array and said to them, "Shortly, we will jointly infuse the bloodline power into the array. This is a one-time directional Teleportation Array. How far we can teleport depends on how much bloodline power we input. Ideally, we could cross the distance of two to three main cities."
Crossing the distance of two to three main cities meant that they could directly cross one-third of the distance from the Ancestor Court to Jiali City! This was definitely the longest known teleportation distance. It was known that even with all her might, the Peacock Demon King couldn't possibly teleport to Jiali City in less than a dozen or twenty attempts. Moreover, rest and recovery would be required along the way.
This one move, covering one-third of the distance, was surely beyond all opponents' expectations.
"Begin!"
Following Tang San's instructions, they infused the Peacock Demon Clan's bloodline power into the array together. Suddenly, the silver light on the entire array blazed intensely in an instant, the explosive increase in silver brilliance gave off an intense sensation. The terrifying silver aura swirled in the air, almost instantly breaking through the barrier previously set up by the Peacock Demon King.
Silver light surged into the sky from within the White Tiger Grand Hotel, abruptly shooting up into the high heavens.
Standing before a massive sculpture at the Ancestor Court Holy Mountain, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor had been keeping his eyes closed.
Just as the silver light exploded within the city, his eyes snapped open, and the divine consciousness that he had already released outside suddenly intensified, a hint of coldness touching the corners of his mouth, "Found it!"
But in the next instant, the coldness on his face turned to astonishment. That enormous silver light flashed for but a moment and then vanished. He could clearly sense that his divine consciousness was instantly overwhelmed, and then something crossed through space in the blink of an eye.
Although he could clearly grasp the direction of the departure, this transmission seemed to have no end and suddenly traveled far away.
How could this be? Over what distance was this transmission?
With his understanding of the Peacock Demon King, his old rival, the Peacock Demon King couldn't possibly have such a teleportation ability!
However, the reality was right in front of him, and it was just as it appeared. It vanished, exceeding the range of his divine consciousness in an instant.
The entire Ancestor Court was alarmed, and almost the next moment, a figure appeared above the White Tiger Grand Hotel, as a piercing killing intent burst forth instantly, enveloping the entire hotel. As a result, several divine consciousnesses that came to investigate were repelled upon collision with this killing intent, unable to penetrate further.
The White Tiger Great Demon King hovered in the air with an icy gaze, while his divine consciousness silently enveloped the interior of the White Tiger Grand Hotel, his eyes flashing with a peculiar light.
"How was this achieved? Ultra-long-distance transmission? Since when did the Peacock have such an ability?"
Immediately after, several figures appeared near him, but they did not come closer.
A resounding voice asked, "White Tiger, what's going on?"
"Unclear, transmission. It seems to have been a magic array, but it has been destroyed."
"May we take a look?"
"No!" The White Tiger Great Demon King gave a resolute reply. The fierce killing intent burst forth, deterring everything surrounding it.
Those powerful figures gradually vanished into thin air, each with their own thoughts. But without a doubt, all of them were affected by the previous violent spatial fluctuation, a strange spatial fluctuation they had never experienced before.
Many things were clear to all, such as the grudge between the Crystal Phoenix Heritage and the Peacock Demon Clan. Since ascending to the Demon Emperor Level, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor had been continuously devising plans to target the Peacock Demon Clan, and he was determined to take over Jiali City. This was known to all the Emperors and was even tacitly approved. After all, there were only so many main cities, and as the lord of a main city, only Emperors could ensure it would not be coveted. It had become an unwritten rule.
The Peacock Demon King's arrival with his daughter to participate in the Ancestor Court elite competition was unexpected by many of the Monster Clan. The initial battle between the Peacock Demon King and the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor in Jiali City could not be concealed from interested parties; the Peacock Demon King was grievously injured, even nearing death, which shook the upper echelons of the Ancestor Court.
After all, the former Peacock Great Demon Emperor was an entity capable of grasping the Heavenly Mechanism, and his spatial attribute was also extremely powerful. Even the Ancestor Court, especially the Monster Clan's Tianyu Empire, did not wish to see such a powerful race meet its demise. Thus, some powerful beings had warned the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor to wait patiently, to act only once the Peacock Demon King had passed away. By then, the Peacock Demon Clan would naturally be unable to resist.
Yet, unexpectedly, the Peacock Demon King, who had sustained fatal injuries and could face a life-threatening crisis at any moment, chose to carve out a new path by bringing his daughter to the competition. Everyone understood that this was a display for the Ancestor Court, showing his successor. And this successor of his even possessed human bloodline.
