Xu Zhiping’s expression immediately turned solemn. He led the soldiers beside him and said, “Come, let’s go out and take a look.”

“May I know why you’ve come, Exalted Immortal?”

Xu Zhiping’s expression instantly changed the moment he went out as he spoke respectfully.

He Qingge was wearing the uniform of a legacy disciple of the Tian Xuan Sect.

There was a special symbol on it and a token of the Tian Xuan Sect at his waist.

It was floating in the air, making fluttering sounds.

Lil Butterfly floated behind He Qingge, releasing a terrifying and oppressive melody.

It was a background music exclusive to He Qingge!

The people below felt an extremely strong pressure, and they did not dare to resist at all.

The most important thing was He Qingge’s identity, so they did not dare to act rashly.

“What’s the matter? Hehe, you’ve mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops. You guys burned, killed, and robbed countless people along the way. The things you’ve done are innumerable…”

Before He Qingge could finish speaking, a divine light flashed by.

Without giving Xu Zhiping any time to react, the divine light pierced through his body and shattered it.

“Exalted Immortal, please spare us. It has nothing to do with us. We were all forced.’

“Yes, yes, if we didn’t follow orders, we’d be killed.”

The rest of the people were so scared that they knelt on the ground and trembled.

“Alright, lead the troops and retreat.” He Qingge spoke loudly.

“Yes, yes, yes…”

Soon, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers surrounding Imperial City began to prepare to retreat.

The people in the city were overjoyed and celebrated. Some even wanted to erect a statue of He Qingge.

A wisp of dark fog descended on He Qingge’s body, making his physique stronger. However, it was not very obvious. It was only a slight increase.

He instantly understood that this was the effect of the Innumerable Calamity unaymg ‘l’rue Boay.

The calamities that affected him could be turned into nutrients.

Xu Zhiping was not a big problem for He Qingge, so it was understandable that the improvement he brought was small.

After returning to the palace, He Qingge keenly sensed that something was amiss, but he did not see much.

He Qingge stopped and called out, “Senior!”

“Formation!” Su Zimei’s eyes narrowed as she nodded seriously.

He Qingge immediately took out the glass bead and held it in his palm.

He injected spiritual power to activate the protective barrier.

Setting up a grand array in the Imperial Palace was simply equivalent to ambushing them in their hometown.

How arrogant!

Su Zimei, Zheng Xiaoling, and the others also took out their Dharma treasures to defend themselves.

Lin Yan also activated the ring, and a layer of powerful aura formed on the surface of his body.

It was the stellar energy that had defended against attacks inside the bronze door.

“Who is it? Don’t hide anymore and step forward!” He Qingge said coldly.

However, no one responded to him.

He Qingge had only studied talismans among the hundred arts of immortal cultivation. He had never come into contact with arrays and pills. It seemed that he would need to supplement himself when he went back.

This trip had indeed allowed him to grow a lot, and he also realized many of his shortcomings.

The master of the formation was the empress, who was hiding in the dark and observing.

Originally, she had only planned to use He Qingge and the others. She did not intend to make them into her enemies.

The problem was that Luo Qiuci’s test result showed that she had a heavenly spiritual root, so she would not allow anyone to take her away.

As long as she started the war in the surrounding six countries, it was very likely that she would reach the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Then, she would probably be only a wall away from the Golden Core Realm.

As long as she could break through to the Golden Core Realm and refine Luo Qiuci into her clone, her future path would be smooth.

For the sake of her own Dao and for the sake of longevity, she would not allow anyone to take Luo Qiuci away.

However, she could not kill He Qingge and the others directly. The legacy disciples of the Tian Xuan Sect would leave their Soul Lamps inside the sect.

If He Qingge and the others died here, she would be in big trouble. She would definitely attract the attention of the Tian Xuan Sect.

Legacy disciples were not small fries, not to mention that there were three of them.

She could not hide and take Luo Qiuci away either. Once they found out that the heavenly spiritual root was missing, they would definitely report it to the Tian Xuan Sect.

No sect would give up on a heavenly spiritual root. They might even use their sect’s guarding Dao artifact to search for it.

Earlier, it was said that a top-notch physique like the Innate Fire Spirit Body had to do with luck and could not be detected.

The heavenly spiritual root was slightly weaker than these top-notch physiques, and it also had to do with luck.

After He Qingge and the others discovered Luo Qiuci, they marked her with the exclusive mark of the Tian Xuan Sect.

This mark was only used to locate the target. Without the special technique of the Tian Xuan Sect, it was basically for someone in the same realm to remove it.

The empress’s strength was also at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Without transcending this realm, the mark placed on Luo Qiuci by Su Zimei and the others naturally could not be removed.

The empress could only use the array to trap He Qingge and the others until she provoked the six countries and absorbed enough disaster energy.

After breaking through, all the problems were naturally easy to solve.

Su Zimei took out a pagoda-shaped magic artifact and threw it on the array.

It made a deafening sound but did not destroy the array.

“This is a trap array!” He Qingge’s expression was ugly. This was already the second time.

Back in Beacon City, Zhang Jianchi had used this formation.

However, compared to the current trap array, it was simply incomparable.

As soon as He Qingge saw Su Zimei’s attack, he knew that practice made perfect.

“A high-grade level-two trap array!” Su Zimei concluded.

“Looks like we’re in big trouble.” Zheng Xiaoling.

Although the trap array could not cause harm or attack, it was the most troublesome array. It used all its power to trap them.

It was basically very difficult for those who were trapped to get out.

Compared to those of the same level, a top-grade level-two array was basically impossible to be broken by a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

It was very difficult to break a high-grade level-two array unless one was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm and had a top-grade level-two magic weapon.

The power that a formation of the same level could unleash was the strongest. It surpassed magic tools, the explosion of pills, and talismans…

Of course, there was one point. Talismans were like bombs. They could be stacked and thrown out at once. Thousands, tens of thousands, or millions of them would naturally cause different effects.

Otherwise, if one wanted to leave, one would have to be an array master to be able to see through the flaws of the array and find the exit.

He Qingge was a little conflicted. If he really wanted to break this trap array, there was a way.

He had a high-grade offensive talisman given by his master.

However, there were very few of them. He did not know how many enemies were outside. If the enemies outside were much more powerful, there might not be enough.

He was not willing to take out the giant bronze door.

“Senior, I have a level-three talisman that Master gave me. Do you want to try and see if you can break it using that?” He Qingge secretly transmitted his voice.

Su Zimei was a little surprised. Was their master that good?

One had to know that in the past, when she went out on missions or in other situations, her master had never given her anything that exceeded her level of protection.

Master seemed to be very concerned about her junior!

“Don’t act rashly. Let’s try again. It’ll be best if we can find a flaw. If we can’t find it, we’ll break it by force,” Su Zimei responded.

“All of us will focus our strength on one attack,” He Qingge nodded and said..
