Immemorial Echo?
The Jiao Demon King’s words stunned everyone.
The so-called Immemorial Echo was a type of music from the Immemorial Royal Family. It was said that Fuxi “drew the Bagua from Eight Winds” in order to communicate with the heavenly way. The wind also represented music, and only a Divine Name of the Immemorial Royal Family was able to appreciate a piece of it. This music possessed Divine Energy like that of the infinitely changing heavenly way, a very formidable technique.
After the Primal Chaos Heavenly Court was destroyed, the Immemorial Royal Family had already become a taboo subject. Most of the Immemorial Divine Names had severed their succession of the late Primal Chaos Heavenly Court and had instead formed their individual lines. For example, the Northern Primordial’s Xuanyuan Huangdi and Chiyou. This kind of separation signified that although a Divine Name was present, they were no longer the same as in their glory day, and it also meant that many skills and talents had been lost. This included geomancy and the music of the Eight Winds.
To hear music that resembled Immemorial Echo all of a sudden, the Jiao Demon King frowned.
Yu The Great was a Divine Name she had never heard of.
She had no impression of such a Divine Name in the Primal Chaos Heavenly Court period.
“You are of the Immemorial Royal Family?” The Jiao Demon King asked.
“Yu succeeds that of the Immemorial.” Yu The Great graciously acknowledged.
“Indeed. Now that the Register Of Deities is active, Immemorial Divine Names, Three Doctrines Divine Names, and even Divine Names from overseas and foreign lands would naturally be birthed.” The woman was impressed that she would be so frank. “However, in today’s Primordial, the Three Doctrines reign at the top. It would be for the better that the Immemorial Royal Family take caution.”
“The Great Sage Of Overturning Seas Jiao Demon King is a sage of the Demonkin. Yu naturally trusts you.” Yu The Great laughed.
The Jiao Demon King laughed along, for these words sounded pleasant.
“Everyone is present. We will now prepare to enter the Eastern Sea and break the formation.” Qi Lin interrupted the conversation. Now was the time to join forces, and he did not want mishaps to arise because of their identities.
“The Eastern Sea Dragon King is currently attended the Dragon King Banquet. This is indeed our opportunity, the moment at which the Heaven-connecting Ocean-calming Array is at its weakest. However, the Heaven-connecting Ocean-calming Array’s four auxiliary arrays will most definitely be guarded by the Crab, Shrimp, Turtle, and Dragon Generals. Although these Four Great Waterkin Generals are not Divine Names, they have ten thousand years of cultivation and unfathomable magical energy.”
“So we need four Divine Names to join forces. I have already investigated the Heaven-connecting Ocean-calming Array over the last few days. It has four great magic treasures that act as array eyes. So long as we break the magic treasures, the formation will immediately collapse.” Qi Lin had already devised a comprehensive plan.
“Oh, speak.” The Jiao Demon King twisted her alluring body and chuckled.
The plan was actually very simple. Everyone would infiltrate the Crystal Palace and launch a simultaneous assault. The Dragon-capturing Zhenren and other Great Primordial Infants would stall the Waterkin guards while Qi Lin, Changxi, Nezha, Yu The Great, and the Jiao Demon King would go break the four auxiliary arrays. Under their coordination, the array would be destroyed swiftly.
Everyone used their powers to enter the Eastern Sea’s floor.
A hundred thousand li under the sea, the water pressure was extraordinary. Although it could not compare to the celestial thunder-fire of the Thirty-three Devas, this was still very formidable pressure. If one was not a cultivator or Divine Name proficient in water, their powers would be severely restricted.
Sensing Moon Mother Changxi’s “Bathe Nine Moons,” Qi Lin very quickly spotted the sprawling Crystal Palace.
The Dragon Palace’s pavilions were all large and exquisite, constructed from sparkling and translucent crystal, making the ten thousand li of seafloor luminous. The auxiliary arrays were all a thousand li away in the cardinal directions, not a very far distance for a cultivator. Qi Lin glanced at the others. Nezha, the Jiao Demon King, and Yu The Great flew in the other three directions.
The Dragon-capturing Zhenren, Yu Wu, Yunxiazi, and Daoist Ocean Swallower also moved towards the center. Their purpose was to draw the attention of the Waterkin guards, to clear obstructions for the Divine Names as they break the arrays.
“Brother Qi Lin.” This was Changxi’s first battle, and she was a bit nervous.
“I’m right here.” Qi Lin held her hand, giving her confidence.
Qi Lin’s location was the western array of the Dragon Palace, which was the nearest to the cetner as well as the farthest away from Dragon King Town; this was a careful consideration on Qi Lin’s part. His goal was the Ocean-calming Divine Needle when all was said and done. He did not care about the rest.
Qi Lin arrived at the western array’s divine pillar.
A moment later, he heard a commotion from the Dragon Palace. Multi-colored sword-lights flit about like fish through water, and magic treasures of all colors jolted the seafloor. Clearly, the Four Great Primordial Infants had already begun.
After the Primordial Infant cultivators attacked, the Dragon Palace was immediately shaken. Countless Waterkin guards flooded out in succession to attack.
Upon seeing this opportunity, Qi Lin drove the Escaping Heavenly Shuttle to the foot of the western array’s pillar.
Patrolling Waterkin guards sounded the alarm the moment they saw the intruders.
The general defending the western pillar appeared to be a crab with six arms and was covered head to toe in armor. When the crab general saw someone was approaching, it roared and raised its arms that held a variety of weapons including swords and polearms. Qi Lin used the Weight Of Mount Tai to seize the initiative.
“Brazen thief, you dare invade the Dragon Palace.” The crab general had hardly finished speaking before he was pinned by the Destined Technique. However, it was indeed worthy of its ten thousand years of cultivation. Using its boundless magical energy, its six weapons unexpectedly shook off the pressure of Weight Of Mount Tai entirely. A sensation of weight was transmitted over. This heaviness was a bit similar to the Weak River that he saw at Western Kunlun. The six weapons deployed like a formation.
At the same time, the western array of the Heaven-connecting Ocean-calming Array activated.
“Hm.” Qi Lin moved his hand and raised the Heaven-shaking Bow and Cloud-piercing Arrow. The Cloud-piercing Arrow shot through the fetters of the sea and directly into the crab general’s vitals.
The Heaven-shaking Bow’s power and temporarily shook the entrapment array. The arrow-light flit by like a shooting star after the moon. “Dark Heaven magic treasure?” The crab general did not expect to encounter such a magic treasure. Its six arms swung its weapons up and down, using abilities that Qi Lin did not know of.
Yet it was not Qi Lin’s target.
“Changxi!”
Moon Mother Changxi knowingly proceeded to point a white finger. Nine moons vaguely manifested in the sea. The silver discs instantly expanded, shining upon the western array like nine bright moons. Under the nine moons, Qi Lin fiercely bellowed, fully utilizing the Four Yins Four Yangs. With the Heavenly Vertical Earthly Horizontal Escape, he charged into the western pillar.
“Moon Chain Thousand Autumns.”
When the Million Destinies Moon Chain Thousand Autumns activated, even the crab general’s boundless magical energy could hardly be wielded, for it was restrained by Divine Energy. The crab general realized it had encountered a Divine General and was immediately a bit flustered, “Horizontal Halberd!”
The magic treasure protecting the western pillar was a golden halberd. It instantly expanded and released blinding golden light towards Qi Lin’s chest. Even Changxi’s Moon Chain Thousand Autumns was unable to trap them, “Brother Qi Lin, be careful.” Changxi shouted.
Qi Lin raised his palms in front of his chest and snapped his fingers, using another Destined Skill, “Jian Destroys Six Kingdoms.”
At the same time, the Zhi Bell hovered over his head, releasing a crisp sound through the deep sea. With a sonorous ring, the tone raised a ripple across the seabed, finally stopping the Horizontal Halberd. “A mere Primordial Infant cultivator dares to cause trouble in the Dragon Palace.” The crab general showed malevolence as it raised its arms. An enormous eddy suddenly appeared from the bottom of the western pillar. This eddy released an enchanting blue light that burned on the seafloor like phosphorescence, sucking Qi Lin and Changxi into the whirlpool to grind to paste.
Not good.
The nine moons dispersed. Qi Lin was unable to withstand it and was sucked into the whirlpool along with Changxi.
The crab general sneered as it saw the enemies fall into the Heaven-connecting Eddy. Even a God Transformation cultivator’s soul would be destroyed by this kind of eddy. “Big Brother, I’m coming out.” Qi Qi was a bit worried inside the Divine Nest.
“It’s not time yet.” Qi Lin used the Yin Yang Fortune Body to withstand the eddy’s grinding assault.
With difficulty, he raised the Heaven-shaking Bow and Cloud-piercing Arrow in his hands.
Divine Energy concentrated o the arrow, which Qi Lin loosed.
This arrow directly broke the eddy, emitting ten thousand degree temperatures as if it were a sun. The surrounding seawater was surprisingly vaporized in an instant, and a terrifying heat spread through this patch of open space in the Eastern Sea. This was the first time the crab general had felt the sun’s heat in the Eastern Sea. Panic-stricken, it shouted in disbelief: “What is this…Destiny…”
It was the Sun-chasing Arrow!!
Combined with the Dark Heaven magic treasure, the Cloud-piercing Arrow became the Sun-chasing Arrow, capable of shooting through even the sun.
This arrow’s might was formidable. It boiled the ocean, and the entire Dragon Palace suffered blinding sunlight.
How could the crab general block the Dark Heaven magic treasure and Million Destinies Sun-chasing Arrow. It vaporized the vortex, and the arrow-light shot into the crab general, pinning it firmly into the towering western pillar.
“Ah!! Impossible…” The crab general’s six arms were still struggling as it forcibly circulated its ten thousand years of magical energy to resist.
But the Sun-chasing Arrow’s Divine Energy ignited inside its body, evaporating its magical energy like dew. In an instant, the crab general was vaporized. The western pillar behind it cracked, then crumbled with a roar.
Western array – broken!

They have to break all four sub arrays at the same time right?
I don’t think so. As long as all 4 are broken, it doesn’t need to be simultaneous or in sequence.
