Deities: Starting From Goblins

With the Spirit Stones already in place, everyone was waiting for the next step, and Sandy Wexler, being more familiar with Logan, naturally spoke up to voice everyone’s questions.

For everyone present, this was also of utmost importance. No matter how many Spirit Stones were spent, the ultimate goal was to defeat the Holy See of the Demonic Sky Gate. If this couldn’t be achieved, then all their efforts would be in vain. At this moment, they were all filled with trepidation and anticipation.

Logan’s Array Method would be the strategy that determined the safety and danger of everyone present. They all hoped that the array Logan would speak of would be reassuring, and if it couldn’t slay the Holy See of the Demonic Sky Gate, at least it would create a solid defensive barrier to protect everyone.

“No.” Logan shook his head and said solemnly, “The Spirit Gathering Array uses absorbed Spiritual Energy as an offensive means, which makes the array rather rigid. It is effective against targets of lower realms or stationary ones, but Sanctuary Powerhouses move like shadows; the Spirit Gathering Array’s attacks could be easily dodged.”

“Is there an array stronger than the Spirit Gathering Array?” Sandy Wexler continued to ask. In his eyes, the Spirit Gathering Array was the strongest he had ever encountered in his life, having resolved not just the Wexler Clan’s City-protecting Array but even slain the Sect Leader of the Supreme Sect who caused trouble.

“The Spirit Gathering Array is not a complicated one, any Array Master could set it up. I merely added a larger Spirit Stone reservoir on top of it, allowing it to absorb more Spiritual Energy for stronger attacks. Without tens of millions of Spirit Stones, the Sect Leader of the Supreme Sect wouldn’t have been slain,” Logan explained with a wry smile, then added, “Against the Holy See of the Demonic Sky Gate, I intend to set up two arrays. The first will be a Barrier Screen, designed to trap the Holy See within it, limiting their movement and working in conjunction with another offensive array.”

“As for the other offensive array, it will definitely be much stronger than the Spirit Gathering Array, but for the sake of secrecy, I won’t disclose it to you all for now. Although I trust that every Sect Leader here shares a common enemy, what if there’s someone harboring ulterior motives?”

If he were to lay out all his plans now and someone were to tip off the Demonic Sky Gate, it could prove to be a fatal blow to Logan’s strategy. The battle against the Holy See was not child’s play; even the slightest mistake could affect the entire battle, and Logan didn’t want all his efforts to be for naught.

The many Sect Leaders expressed their understanding, but they questioned Logan about the Barrier Screens he mentioned, “As far as we know, no barrier has ever been able to contain a Holy See. Moreover, since the Holy Sees have mastered the Great Law of Space, they can simply tear open a crack and travel thousands of miles.”

“It’s true that the Holy Sees have mastered the Great Law of Space, but the Barrier Array I have constructed is different. It can prevent the Holy See’s spatial manipulation, even continuously weakening the power of their Great Law. Within the Barrier Array, the Holy See’s strength will be reduced by forty percent,” Logan said with confidence.

“Moreover, the barrier is extremely solid. Even if the Holy See attacks non-stop, they won’t be able to escape for at least a day,” Logan continued.

The various Lords looked at each other in disbelief. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to believe, but what Logan was proposing seemed too fantastical to be true. As Lords who had seen much of the world, they were well aware of the strength of the Holy Sees. An array that could trap a Holy See?

Even with Logan’s frightening proficiency in array methods, when one reached the Holy See realm, their every move would shake the heavens and earth, and they had the power to tear apart mountains and rivers. If an Array Master could simply construct a Barrier Array with such terrifying effectiveness, wouldn’t everyone be better off practicing array methods than other forms of cultivation?

“You underestimate me too much!” Logan laughed heartily, then turned to look at Bart Cloud, who clearly understood Logan’s intention.

Bart Cloud then stood up and explained, “Have you heard about the demise of two Holy Sees? Those were the Beast King of the Monster Beast Clan and the renowned Heavenly Saint Daoist. Both were among the strongest of the Holy Sees, yet they perished mysteriously in the Demon Beast Mountain Range.”

“Of course we know. That event shocked the entire Western Wasteland, and even the Central Region,” several Lords and all Sect Leaders nodded. Everyone in the Western Wasteland knew about it, yet it remained a secret to this day, with no one clear on how the two Holy Sees vanished.

There were many rumors suggesting that they had both perished together, but there was no evidence to confirm this. Furthermore, the likelihood of two Holy Sees dying together was very slim; when either side was severely wounded, they would typically stop fighting rather than proceed to sacrifice themselves.

“At that time, a conflict arose between the two Holy Sees, and it was Logan who used a Barrier Array to trap the Holy Sees, preventing them from leaving. Eventually, they perished together within the array, leaving no trace behind, other than causing a tremendous disturbance in the Demon Beast Mountain Range,” Bart Cloud clarified.

Bart Cloud coughed, then looked at the crowd, “If not for Logan’s Barrier Screens, just imagine the power generated by the Holy Sees’ self-destruction; even if it weren’t enough to obliterate the entire Western Wasteland, at least half of it would be destroyed. How could you all still be safe and sound?”

Initially, the crowd was skeptical, but the latter part of Bart Cloud’s statement struck a chord. They too had pondered this point, questioning how, if Holy Sees had the power to destroy hundreds of miles upon self-detonation, the two perished Holy Sees hadn’t even managed to destroy the Demon Beast Mountain Range?
