In the Earth-Splitting Array, earth-fire and lightning intertwined, instantly swallowing those Test Takers who claimed to control the earth and fire.
In the Wind-Howling Array, the wild winds turned into thousands of blades, carving through meat and bone, tearing the wind mages into pieces.
Inside the Cold-Ice Array, ice mountains and blades froze everything, turning the Ice Goddess Test Taker into a lifelike ice sculpture.
The Golden-Light Array was even more ridiculous.
The moment the golden light shone, the Sun God priest turned into bloody water, with not even a scrap left behind.
One array after another was tested.
Batch after batch of Test Takers threw themselves forward, leaving behind nothing but fields of ash.
The Test Takers finally felt true terror.
[These Chinese arrays are too ridiculous! They can’t be countered at all!]
[I feel like we aren’t even on the same level as them…]
[I originally thought I could kill everyone on the battlefield, but now I realize I’m the one being killed! I’m not going!]
[What is the origin of the Chinese Pantheon? How can they be so terrifying?]
The numerous Test Takers watched in despair as groups of their companions turned into ash.
They completely broke down.
Su Fu looked at this group of Test Takers whose worldviews were collapsing and thought that being a physician was indeed the safest identity.
‘Each of them died in such a flashy way. It looks terrifying.’
The right specialty?
No, it was clearly a specialty in dying.
In the Great Desolation Channel, someone finally realized what was happening—
[Something’s wrong! Didn’t they say the Chan Sect follows the Mandate of Heaven? So many people have died; you call this following heaven’s will? Whose will are they following exactly?]
[And making us scouts… They’re basically using us as cannon fodder, aren’t they?!]
A single stone stirred a thousand ripples.
The other surviving Chan Sect Test Takers joined in: [Exactly! Why are they sending us to die?!]
[The Chan Sect doesn’t care about us at all!]
[What ‘Destined by Heaven’? we’re just expendable fodder!]
On the opposite side, the Sect of Interception Test Takers were overjoyed, feeling they had made the right choice: [We told you so! The Sect of Interception is free! Change sides to Interception!]
[The Shang Dynasty is the legitimate rule! You’ve been tricked by the Chan Sect!]
[If this continues, you won’t even be able to break the Ten Desolate Arrays. What kind of ‘Mandate of Heaven’ are you talking about?]
All sorts of schadenfreude comments flooded the screen, making the Chan Sect Test Takers fume with rage, yet they were helpless.
Because the other side was right; with the Ten Desolate Arrays in front of them, they really couldn’t break a single one.
Once everyone had finished testing the situation of the Ten Desolate Arrays, it was finally time for the Twelve Golden Immortals to take the stage.
As soon as the Twelve Golden Immortals stepped out, the situation shifted abruptly.
Wenshu Guangfa Tianzun was the first to act.
Holding the Dragon-Subduing Post and stepping on the Seven-Treasure Golden Lotus, he flew directly toward the Heaven-Extinguishing Array.
“Lord Qin!” Wenshu’s voice was as loud as a bell, “Surrender now!”
Lord Qin sneered, “Arrogant! Behold my Pre-Celestial Pure Qi—”
Before he could finish, the Dragon-Subduing Post in Wenshu’s hand turned into three golden dragons.
They roared as they pierced through the array’s barrier and instantly captured the array master, Lord Qin.
“No! This is imposs—”
“Crack!”
Wenshu Guangfa Tianzun raised his sword and brought it down.
Lord Qin’s head flew off, and the Heaven-Extinguishing Array instantly collapsed.
The first array was broken!
Next was Juliusun against the Earth-Splitting Array.
This Golden Immortal was even more direct, throwing the Immortal-Binding Rope.
He ignored the earth-fire and lightning in the array and tied up the master, Lord Zhao, dragging him out of the array by force.
The second array was broken!
One by one, the arrays were easily dismantled.
The most shocking was Guangchengzi breaking the Golden-Light Array.
This senior disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun faced the precious mirror held by the Mother of Golden Light and directly sacrificed the Heaven-Turning Seal.
That seal grew with the wind, turning into the size of a mountain in the blink of an eye.
It crashed down with the power to suppress the world!
“BOOM!!!”
The Heaven-Turning Seal fell, shattering the Mother of Golden Light’s mirror with a single blow!
The mirror shattered instantly, and the Mother of Golden Light herself was struck atop her head, killed in a second.
Meanwhile, the Great Desolation Channel was going crazy:
[This is the strength of the Twelve Golden Immortals? Truly terrifying!!!]
[This isn’t breaking an array; it’s a total crush!]
[The Heaven-Turning Seal?! Shattering an array with one hit?! Are Chinese artifacts this ridiculous?]
[I declare that these are the true immortal treasures!]
Su Fu thought to herself, ‘This is nothing.’
These Twelve Golden Immortals were powerful, right?
Their treasures were strong, right?
Later on, they would be beaten by the Three Goddesses and nearly wiped out!
In the end, Yuanshi Tianzun had to personally intervene for them to survive, but their power was greatly diminished as a result.
‘When the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array comes out, you’ll know what ‘ridiculous’ really means.’
It could only be broken by four Saints!
The Test Takers on the Sect of Interception’s side were furious as they saw the arrays being broken one after another: [You’re cheating! You’re relying entirely on artifacts!]
[Heh! Don’t worry about whether it’s cheating or not; just tell me, did we win?]
[If you’re inferior, don’t look for excuses!]
This righteous-sounding statement made many Test Takers almost spit blood.
A few impulsive Test Takers tried to step forward to block the path, but Guangchengzi casually tossed his seal—
“Thud! Thud! Thud!”
It hit three people in a row, turning them each into a pile of meat.
“Who else?” Guangchengzi reclaimed his seal.
The Sect of Interception Test Takers retreated in unison; no one dared to step forward anymore.
They could only roar in the Great Desolation Channel: [This is bullying!]
[Using that kind of treasure to crash the party? This is clearly the big bullying the small!]
[Grandmaster Tongtian, where are you? Come quickly!]
[One-hit kill?! How are we supposed to fight!]
[Heavens, I feel like this isn’t even on the same level as our Divine Artifacts!]
Su Fu thought, ‘That’s exactly right.’
The Heaven-Turning Seal was one of the strongest artifacts in the Investiture of the Gods, known for “killing whoever it hits.”
It was a treasure personally bestowed upon Guangchengzi by Yuanshi Tianzun.
Later, he would use it to kill the Mother of Fire Spirit, knock down Daoist Many Treasures, and beat the Mother of Turtle Spirit back into her original form.
It practically swept through Grandmaster Tongtian’s four personal disciples.
‘This treasure is destined for me.’
However, now was not the right time to get it.
Guangchengzi, holding the Heaven-Turning Seal, was incredibly fierce, and handling the aftermath would be a problem.
But a perfect opportunity would come later.
He would give the Heaven-Turning Seal to his disciple, Yin Jiao (the son of Queen Jiang and King Zhou), for protection.
Later, Yin Jiao would be turned by Shen Gongbao and attack his own master’s sect.
Yin Jiao would even reverse the natural order, using the Heaven-Turning Seal to scare Guangchengzi away.
Just then, Chijingzi stepped out.
Seeing the Taiji Diagram and the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand, Su Fu’s eyes immediately lit up.
The Taiji Diagram was a supreme treasure from the Saint Laozi.
It could trap enemies in an endless chaotic space and serve as a defense, containing a world within it!
Even if she could only get this one item, this trip to the Great Desolation would be a total win.
On the battlefield, Chijingzi had entered the Soul-Falling Array.
Lord Yao had just shaken the Soul-Falling Flag when he saw Chijingzi unfurl the Taiji Diagram.
All soul attacks disappeared like mud into the sea.
Before Lord Yao could react, Chijingzi had already raised the white side of the Yin-Yang Mirror toward him.
The white side brought death; the red side brought rebirth.
“Oh no!” Lord Yao only had time to shout those two words.
A white light flashed, and the Heavenly Lord of Jinao Island fell backward, his breath vanished.
He was dead.
The scene then became a one-sided slaughter.
After six arrays were broken in quick succession, the entire Great Desolation Channel was silent as a grave.
Everyone was stunned into silence by this overwhelming suppression.
The Test Takers on the Shang side looked like they were covered in ash.
The Twelve Golden Immortals each held top-tier conceptual artifacts; how could they possibly win?
That mirror was just ridiculous — whoever it looked at died.
How was such a concept even possible?!
“I’m certainly going to die…” a Sect of Interception Test Taker muttered, “The Shang Dynasty is doomed…”
And the Zhou army Test Takers, who should have been cheering, were either dead or terrified.
The Twelve Golden Immortals were clearly this strong, yet they chose to let the Test Takers be cannon fodder to fill the arrays first.
Why?
What ‘meritorious service to become a god’?
They were clearly just fodder!
Fodder that was only slightly stronger than mortals!
Having realized this, a bucket of cold water was poured over them, chilling them to the bone.
Su Fu looked at Randeng Daoren, who was responsible for coordinating the array-breaking efforts.
This benevolent-looking old Daoist was currently directing the others to continue breaking the arrays.
‘This person is truly sinister,’ Su Fu lamented.
He let mortal generals and rogue cultivators die, and then the Golden Immortals followed behind with artifacts to dismantle the arrays, taking zero risks themselves.
In the Great Investiture War, what was justice or evil?
It was nothing more than a game played by various factions.
Chesia trembled beside her, “Luckily you’re a physician… otherwise, that old thing would have definitely sent you to fill an array!”
Su Fu looked across the field and saw that Grand Preceptor Wen’s expression had become extremely ugly.
Immediately afterward, he rode his Black Kirin and hurriedly left the battlefield.
“It’s finally coming,” Su Fu sighed softly.
According to the plot, Wen Zhong would now go to invite the senior disciple of the Sect of Interception’s outer sect, Zhao Gongming.
That fierce character who held the twenty-four Sea-Fixing Beads and could beat the Twelve Golden Immortals until they scrambled for their lives!
Don’t look at Randeng Daoren’s current posture of having everything under control; later on, he would be chased and beaten by Zhao Gongming, forced to flee.
At that time, she would finally be able to get her hands on a treasure like the Sea-Fixing Beads.
She thought to herself, ‘Better me than Randeng Daoren.’
Just then, an anonymous message suddenly appeared in the Great Desolation Channel: [DO NOT TRUST ANY FACTION!!!]
[RUN! THEY ARE ALL LIARS!!!]
[THEIR PURPOSE IS TO TRICK US INTO DYING!!!]
Three sentences in a row, each with exclamation marks.
Everyone felt their scalps tingle.
[What’s the situation? Who sent this?]
[What did this person discover!]
[What does this mean? It’s terrifying to think about!]
The channel instantly boiled over, and everyone panicked.
[Wait, if we don’t trust anyone, what do we do next?]
[At least tell us a solution!]
[Hello? Are you still there? Hello? Hi?]
Immediately after, the anonymous person sent another message: [GO FIND SU FU!!!]
[SHE IS OUR ONLY HOPE!!!]
Su Fu: “…?”
Suddenly, she had become the savior?
Why didn’t she know about this!
‘Who? Who sent that? Come out and get a beating!’
