Zhao Yuan left, taking with him the deal made with Fang Chen.
As for Zhao Li and his three companions, aside from the deceased Zhao Lie, even Zhao Li, whose cultivation had been completely destroyed but still clung to life, was ruthlessly abandoned in Fengyan City. In Zhao Yuan's words, it was already a great mercy that the Zhao Family did not cleanse their ranks of such a scourge; they would never bring him back to avoid contaminating the rest of the Zhao Family.
With his cultivation gone, abandoned by his family, and having offended the Fang Family, Zhao Li's tragic fate seemed all but certain. Thus, this group of four was truly left behind in Fengyan City forever.
"Jincheng Sect!" In the courtyard of the Fang Residence, matters concerning Chan'er had come to a close. However, as they listened to Fang Chen's account, Fang Zheng Tian and Fang Qingshan's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed once more.
A new crisis was about to descend upon the Fang Family.
Although Fang Zheng Tian and Fang Qingshan had never heard of Jincheng Sect, they could clearly understand from Fang Chen's brief description that it was a powerful sect on par with Ziyang Sect. Such power was absolutely beyond the reach of a force like the Royal Zhao Family, let alone a small family like the Fang Family. And this powerful sect was set to send people to Fengyan City in three days.
The visitors did not come with good intentions!
Though Fang Chen spoke calmly, both Fang Zheng Tian and Fang Qingshan were not foolish; they could clearly sense the turbulent undercurrents hidden beneath that calm exterior. Since such a powerful sect was sending people over, those who came would undoubtedly possess the strength to annihilate the Fang Residence. In front of such a force, the current state of the Fang Residence seemed far too fragile and vulnerable.
"Cheng'er, you need not concern yourself with this matter. There are three days left; take this time to return swiftly to Ziyang Sect," Fang Zheng Tian said seriously.
Beside him, Fang Qingshan nodded and added, "Anyone in the Fang Residence could be in danger, but you, Cheng'er, must not encounter any trouble. You should listen to your grandfather and me."
With their intelligence, how could they not guess that this inexplicable crisis from Jincheng Sect was due to Fang Chen? Yet at this moment, facing an impending catastrophe, their first reaction was not to blame Fang Chen; they didn't even entertain thoughts of reproach but instead wanted him to leave first.
A father's love is as solid as a mountain!
Watching this scene and seeing the worry in his grandfather's and father's eyes made Fang Chen's nose tingle with emotion; he felt an impulse to cry. The memory of his previous life flashed before him—his father struggling to deliver a warning to him during the extermination crisis of the Fang Family suddenly resurfaced.
"Such a tragedy must never happen again!" Fang Chen clenched his fists tightly, roaring inwardly.
The blow from Chan'er's death had already been severe; if his father and grandfather were to die like in his past life, he truly could not guarantee how he would react. However, it was easy to imagine that he would be on the brink of collapse if he survived that situation.
However, with Jincheng Sect's Heavenly Realm experts unable to arrive and even powerful beings from the Primordial Embryo Realm intercepted by Ziyang Sect's people before they could step into Fengyan City, only Alchemy Realm practitioners and ordinary Primordial Embryo Realm disciples remained. This situation did not instill any sense of helplessness in Fang Chen. On the contrary, a rather wild idea began to take shape in his mind.
"What if I leave them all here in Fengyan City? That should be quite interesting..." As he thought this way, Fang Chen slowly relaxed his tightly clenched fists. At the same time, a slightly strange smile subtly appeared at the corners of his mouth.
The Jincheng Ancestor had already acted shamelessly against him within the Colorful Sacred Realm due to his status. If that wasn't enough, he had even killed that projection of Divine Consciousness sent by Jincheng Ancestor—this effectively severed any chance for reconciliation between them. Moreover, Jincheng Sect sending people to confront him at the Fang Residence was also extremely audacious; under these circumstances, if he had an opportunity, he would definitely not show any mercy towards those from Jincheng Sect.
"Grandfather, Father, you don't need to worry. I, Cheng'er, already have a solution for this matter," Fang Chen said with a smile, a confident grin spreading across his handsome face. "I will make them regret it."
"Cheng'er, you..." Looking at the calm and confident Fang Chen, Fang Zheng Tian felt somewhat puzzled. From Fang Chen's earlier account, he could clearly sense the power of the Jincheng Sect. Such a formidable sect, and Cheng'er seemed completely unafraid. What was his support?
Ziyang Sect!
Suddenly, these three words flashed through Fang Zheng Tian's mind. As he looked at Fang Chen's confident demeanor, his worries eased considerably.
"If things go awry, Cheng'er, you must not insist on staying. You must take the opportunity to leave. Even if the Fang Family is gone, as long as you are here, our Fang Family will surely rise again one day," Fang Zheng Tian finally advised.
"Grandfather, I understand," Fang Chen nodded in response.
Although he knew that if one day he truly faced a crisis that even he could not prevent, he would never abandon his grandfather, father, and the entire Fang Family. However, Fang Chen also understood that this concern stemmed from his grandfather and father's care for him and their hopes placed entirely on him. Naturally, he could not argue with them about this matter. Moreover, the current situation with the Jincheng Sect was far from putting the Fang Family in such a desperate crisis.
Three days were enough for him to prepare many "good things."
Soon, Fang Chen took his leave from his grandfather and father and hurriedly left the Fang Residence.
At the entrance of Fengyan City, his figure appeared.
Looking up at the familiar three large characters "Fengyan City" on the city gate, Fang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, a glint of cold light flashing through his slit-like pupils.
"With my current Alchemy Realm cultivation level, along with various materials obtained from the Colorful Sacred Realm and the Heritage of a Half-Step Nirvana Realm Expert, I should be able to set up an Eighth Level Spirit Array," he murmured to himself.
Setting up an array!
Yes, this was precisely why Fang Chen had come early. The Eighth Level Spirit Array was what he relied on to deal with the group from the Jincheng Sect.
A Spirit Array is similar to alchemy; from the initial first-level Spirit Array to the subsequent ninth-level Spirit Array and finally to earth-level and heaven-level arrays, each level has vastly different powers. It is said that a heaven-level Spirit Array possesses power comparable to that of a Nirvana Realm expert.
Of course, a single Spirit Array cannot truly compare to a real Nirvana Realm expert; here "comparable" merely refers to its power being equivalent to that of a Nirvana Realm expert's attack. Nevertheless, even so, the strength of a Spirit Array can be seen.
Currently, however, Fang Chen was far from being able to set up any heaven-level Spirit Arrays; even earth-level and ninth-level Spirit Arrays were beyond his capability. After all, setting up Spirit Arrays is much more difficult than ordinary martial arts cultivation and is even more complex than alchemy.
In his previous life, after the Fang Residence faced a crisis of extermination, Fang Chen fled far away. Due to livelihood reasons, during that time he had learned many fragmented skills—alchemy, weapon forging... he had dabbled in many professions among which naturally included Spirit Arrays.
However, when it comes to the Spirit Array, Fang Chen does not possess the same extraordinary talent as he does in alchemy. After practicing for a long time, he barely reached the level of a Third-Rank Array Master. Although this talent is exceptional compared to many others, for Fang Chen, who was eager for revenge at that time, his progress felt painfully slow, especially considering his significant aptitude in alchemy. As a result, he gradually neglected the study of arrays.
Later, as he began cultivating the Life and Death Transformation Technique and his cultivation level increased through repeated pursuits, Fang Chen's understanding of Spirit Arrays gradually deepened. Many times, when faced with life-threatening chases, he relied on one or two seemingly insignificant arrays to outsmart his enemies and escape.
Of course, this was only in Fang Chen's previous life. If we consider only his achievements in array techniques before his fall, it would still be too difficult for him to set up an Eighth Level Spirit Array with his current Alchemy Realm cultivation; it could even be said to be impossible. However, by coincidence, within the Colorful Sacred Realm, Fang Chen obtained insights into Spirit Arrays from the heritage of a Half-Step Nirvana Realm Expert.
This individual, before their fall, was not only a prominent Half-Step Nirvana Realm Expert but also a powerful Spirit Array Master. His achievements in array techniques were nearly on par with those in martial arts. The combination of martial arts and Spirit Arrays allowed him to truly contend with Peerless Strongmen of the Nirvana Realm at his Half-Step Nirvana Realm cultivation!
This was also a significant reason why he had not yet truly broken into the Nirvana Realm but was already being pursued frantically by those mysterious individuals—he was simply too remarkable!
Now, with the fall of that Half-Step Nirvana Realm Expert, all of that valuable insight into array techniques naturally fell into the hands of Fang Chen, who inherited their legacy.
Combining his previous achievements in array techniques with the insights gained from the Half-Step Nirvana Realm Expert created a moment of clarity for Fang Chen. His understanding of array techniques seemed to open a door once again, allowing him to make rapid progress! It is precisely because of this that Fang Chen now dares to attempt setting up a massive array covering the entire Fengyan City.
Although it is an Eighth Level Spirit Array, the vast area that Fang Chen intends to cover makes this task nearly as difficult as setting up a Ninth Level Spirit Array. While the difficulty has significantly increased, once established, its power would far exceed that of an ordinary Eighth Level Spirit Array.
An ordinary Eighth Level Spirit Array can barely threaten an average Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artist; at most, it can temporarily trap or injure them but rarely leads to death. Moreover, if there are many people involved or if there are slightly stronger Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artists present, the entire Spirit Array is likely to collapse. However, with Fang Chen's current plan, once set up, it would not merely trap Primordial Embryo Realm warriors but would truly be capable of exterminating them!
