Jiang Ming's expression was equally cold.
He could clearly sense that the lightning was abnormally powerful and terrifying. Once it descended, half of the mountain would be reduced to nothingness.
Therefore, Jiang Ming did not choose to take it head-on. Instead, he turned sideways and formed a seal with both hands, erupting with a powerful attack.
Endless flames clashed with the terrifying lightning. The commotion that erupted was naturally huge, and the terrifying consequences were extraordinary.
"Damn it!"
The commander-level assassin's expression changed. He subconsciously wanted to dodge. However, he was too late. Soon, he was wrapped up by the powerful destructive aftershock, and his entire body turned into ashes in an instant.
All assassins who ran a little slower suffered as well.
Jiang Ming had already expected this and left with Wu Hen and the others. Coupled with the powerful defensive array formation, they were more or less in one piece.
Looking back, they saw that the mountain peak had been shattered, causing everyone to tremble in fear.
"If we had been a little slower just now, we would have died!"
Zhai Tianfeng's expression was extremely ugly. At the same time, he exclaimed in shock, "Why is the Nine Heavens Dark Lightning so powerful? How could he destroy a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator?"
He looked at Jiang Ming in confusion. After a moment of silence, the latter slowly said, "It's because of the collision between the Nine Heavens Dark Lightning and my attack. The energies within it have clashed and mutated, resulting in such a huge effect."
Hearing this, Huai Mei and the others clenched their fists tightly. They finally realized that they were still too weak. In front of such a powerful force, even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could not withstand a single blow, let alone Golden Core Realm cultivators like them.
At this moment, Ying Sha suddenly said, "However, if this is the case, I'm afraid that the people from the Network will not give up easily…"
Hearing this, Huai Mei and the others all revealed ugly expressions. Being targeted by the net was one of the most terrifying things in the Feather Kingdom.
"The foundation of the Network is too deep. They have a main hall outside of the Feather Kingdom. It can be said that their background is ancient. It is basically unrealistic to ask for peace…" Zhai Tianfeng said slowly. As the youngest array master of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land, his understanding of the Network was far better than everyone else, including Ying Sha.
"Is the Flowerfruit Mountain behind us not famous enough?" Ying Sha asked immediately.
Zhai Tianfeng shook his head and said, "The forces of the Network are complicated. It is said that there is an assassination dynasty behind them. In the face of such forces, I'm afraid that ordinary ancient sects will not be able to do anything. Only those three major forces can make the Network fear them."
"Which three?"
Jiang Ming asked with a frown.
"The Ascension Divine Kingdom. You should know something about it, right?"
Zhai Tianfeng's words made everyone nod. They had some understanding of the Ascension Divine Kingdom.
"The Ascension Divine Kingdom is a huge force. I think you should know that it is even more powerful and terrifying than Nine Ghost Cult. However, it still can't enter the top three forces."
When Zhai Tianfeng said this, he could not help but sigh. The so-called Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was just a joke in front of the three magnates.
"Because among the three big shots, there are inheritances from immortals."
That was all Zhai Tianfeng had to say. He did not want to mention the names of the three magnates at all.
Jiang Ming saw this and felt even more confused. Why would Zhai Tianfeng talk about the Ascension Divine Kingdom and not the names of the three magnates?
Was it taboo?
Or could it be that Zhai Tianfeng was inextricably linked to the so-called three magnates?
It did not matter!
Jiang Ming threw all these thoughts to the back of his mind, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
"Zhai Tianfeng, you're now in charge of advancing to a fourth-grade array master. Can you do it?"
Zhai Tianfeng was stunned for a moment before he smiled bitterly.
"I can't do it. It's too difficult to advance to the fourth grade. I don't have the ability at all."
He was a genius. However, there was a limit.
Among the younger generation of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land, he was the most talented person in the field of array formations. However, in the real world of array formations, his talent was at most second-class. He had nothing to do with prodigies or geniuses.
Jiang Ming smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to help you advance to the next grade. As long as you swear eternal loyalty to me, I'll naturally give you enough opportunities. Otherwise, you might as well return to the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land and cultivate properly."
When Zhai Tianfeng heard this, his expression changed and he asked in bewilderment, "Do you have any ideas?"
Although he had followed Jiang Ming and knew that he had incredible supernatural powers and a powerful heritage, he did not think that the other party had any brilliant ideas or inheritances in the field of array formations.
In the next second, Jiang Ming pointed at his forehead. A golden light appeared, and soon, a stream of inherited memories surged into Zhai Tianfeng's mind.
This was…
Zhai Tianfeng's expression changed drastically. He looked at Jiang Ming in disbelief.
"Where did you get this inheritance? It is actually so profound and unfathomable that it pointed straight to the realm of a divine-grade array master!"
This was just a term used in the Lower Realm. In fact, it was an eighth-grade array master.
Although the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was not a holy land or ancient sect that specialized in array formations, it still had many array formation inheritances and great array masters. However, at most, they could only cultivate to the sixth or seventh grade.
The inheritance that Zhai Tianfeng had obtained could at most allow him to cultivate to the fifth grade. However, now, he had unexpectedly obtained an array formation inheritance that was directly related to the divine grade!
The so-called divine grade was a level that only the best among eighth-grade array masters could reach. They were also known as Array Saints!
"It's hard to say if there are any Array Saints in the Lower Realm today. However, they are definitely rare. As for the divine inheritance, it's even rarer. It's basically only passed down among those Array Saints."
Zhai Tianfeng spoke instinctively. He suddenly thought of something and stared at Jiang Ming in disbelief. Was there an Array Saint in the Flowerfruit Mountain?
"Hehe, there's no need to get to the bottom of it. Just focus on your cultivation."
Jiang Ming seemed so mysterious. He patted Zhai Tianfeng's shoulder and left, leaving the latter stunned.
"Ning Caichen is really mysterious and extraordinary. Perhaps following him was the best decision I've ever made in my life!"
