Chapter 4273: The Time Has Come
The Sky Dome War Array was the result of Lin Moyu's painstaking work its core nature was defense, and this was its greatest strength.
But beyond defense, it also served two other major functions: control and offense.
While its control and offensive capabilities couldn't compare to its defense, they were by no means weak.
Lin Moyu put everything he had learned in his life into this titanic formation, which covered the entire domain, empowered by the force of ten domains.
Earlier, only part of the Sky Dome Array's power had been activated; but now, it was about to be displayed in its entirety.
A terrifying aura erupted from the array ten layers of formations lit up one after another, shining brightly and illuminating a vast swath of the void, making the Five Domain World a radiant star in the chaos between void and chaos.
Atop the formation, a giant figure appeared left hand holding a shield, right hand gripping a blade, clad in heavy armor, the very picture of a fearless battle king charging to the front lines.
The presence radiating from the war giant was startling every bit as powerful as the Fifth Generation Heavenly Void Palace Master.
Faced with such might, the Palace Master was actually calmed, "I hadn't expected your mastery of formations to reach such a level."
"But unfortunately, your array draws on the domain force, and that domain fo… huh? How could this be?"
A look of surprise crossed his face. Moments ago, he could freely manipulate the domain force; now, it seemed detached from him, his control drastically weakened.
Lin Moyu grinned, "You want to say the domain force is yours to command, and my array's advantage is meaningless since you can just cut me off, right?"
Lin Moyu had seen through his intentions. The Palace Master was right about the theory: if the domain force was cut off, the array would be useless.
But he soon realized he couldn't control the domain force anymore.
Lin Moyu smiled lightly, "Take your time thinking about it you might figure it out eventually."
The real reason was clear to Lin Moyu alone: the Soul less Beast, as rule manager, held some authority over the domain force.
Moreover, Lin Moyu possessed the core divine runes in the domain core. Before, he hadn't managed these runes directly, but now, with the array fully awakened, he took charge of the divine runes himself, cutting their connection with the Palace Master.
Naturally, the Palace Master was no longer able to drive the domain force as before.
But Lin Moyu had left the vortices behind the divine runes untouched, so the domain's core couldn't immediately pinpoint the problem.
Lin Moyu didn't care to explain more; the more puzzled his foe, the better.
The war array giant was already charging the Palace Master each stride covering tens of thousands of li, as if teleporting. In a blink, it appeared before the Palace Master and brought its blade down.
The Palace Master snorted, manifesting a battle blade of his own, and struck.
Bang!
The war array giant shuddered slightly, its blade shattering, but the Palace Master was blasted back too, his own blade breaking as well.
Shockwaves of their collision swept in all directions. The war array giant raised its massive shield "Suppress!"
A huge "suppress" character appeared on the shield as the Sky Dome Array activated, spawning countless shields, each bearing the "suppress" symbol, to intercept all the force flying out.
The intercepted power rapidly gathered at the center, then launched as a single sharp arrow at the Palace Master.
The process finished in less than 0.01 seconds.
The Palace Master hadn't regained his footing when an arrow slammed toward him, carrying all the energy of his and the giant's earlier clash.
"Even that's possible?!"
He had never seen such maneuvers; it was far beyond ordinary counterplay.
The Palace Master instinctively tried to dodge, but inside the array, countless vortices spun madly; a powerful suction exploded forth, turning into a formless giant hand that gripped him tight.
In the heart of the array, an enormous divine rune appeared a giant character: "Fix!"
This wasn't a normal divine rune it already contained partial characteristics of chaos runes.
In fact, the whole Sky Dome War Array incorporated traits of chaos runes Lin Moyu had woven his understanding of them into the formation, greatly enhancing its power.
The Palace Master was immobilized, unable to escape, and had to take the incoming arrow head on.
"Chaos Battle Armor!"
He roared, donning a suit of armor.
The arrow crashed into the chaos armor and exploded, hurling the Palace Master away, though unharmed and the armor unbroken.
Lin Moyu frowned; he could see the armor was forged after complete chaotification an armor refined from chaos qi, with astonishing defense, the main reason Chaos Realm experts could roam the chaos.
There were many chaotic lifeforms born in chaos itself, but most lacked chaos armor and thus were weaker than cultivators of equal rank.
Chaos battle armor was a marker of true Chaos Realm mastery unmatched defense but at a great energy cost.
Within chaos, replenishing chaos qi was easy, but here, every bit used was a bit lost forever.
The Palace Master roared in frustration, "You've forced me to this! (For thrilling novels, just go to Faloo!)"
Lin Moyu sneered, flicking his finger as the war array giant attacked again, manifesting another battle blade.
The Palace Master extended his hand; a massive sword appeared sword and armor born of the same source, both overflowing with chaos qi.
Lin Moyu didn't flinch; if you had chaos armor, you'd definitely have chaos battle gear too.
Sword gleamed; the war giant's blade shattered. The giant raised its shield in defense, the "suppress" rune glowing.
Boom the shield was shattered as well, sword light cut the void, nearly severing the war giant in two.
Chaos weapons were simply too powerful the giant was no match.
The Palace Master tried to pursue and finish the job, but the "fix" rune in the formation flared, binding him again.
He struck back with a sword, shaking the formation with a violent tremor, splitting it with large cracks.
He pierced seven layers of the Sky Dome Array with one sword, but the formation had ten in all as long as all ten didn't break at once, it could repair.
Lin Moyu flicked his fingers, divine runes firing rapidly the Sky Dome Array ran on, spawning more war array giants.
Each layer produced a giant ten in total surrounding the Palace Master.
A multitude of shields materialized, pounding at him in unison.
Meanwhile, the undead minions attacked from all sides in a saturation assault, instantly engulfing him.
Chaos armor and chaos weapons were mighty, but consumed monstrous energy.
Sword light flashed, reaping swathes of undead.
Earlier, Lin Moyu had feigned weakness to trick the Palace Master into using up chaos qi, making it look as if the undead were perishing en masse.
In truth, he'd simply withdrawn most, and few had actually died.
Now the undead attacked again, and no matter how many fell, none withdrew.
The giants, too, pressed the attack, submerged the Palace Master in offense.
Despite his armor, the Palace Master raged and countered madly battle array giants fell, undead perished in droves.
He slaughtered at a crazy pace, howling furiously, like a wild beast.
Lin Moyu's heart stirred "The chance is here!"
A thought and in front of him, the void shattered. The World Tree pierced through reality and illusion, unleashing endless branches, thick roots drawn from chaos, woven together into a colossal tree...
