  Because of this dissimilarity in the viewpoint between them and the others, Ning Cheng thought that as long as those 7 Profound Core Cultivators entered his Hidden Serial Killing Array, then his plan would already be half successful. Although the Array Formations that he would be going to set up were only Level 3 Array Formations, but it can be said that it was made by fusing the Killing Intent Restriction placed on the Ancient Immortal Cave’s entrance into it. Even if it was Profound Core Cultivator, even if they took more than a dozen breathes of time, it would still be very difficult for them to break it.

  But for his approach to be successful, they had to trap them in it for more than a dozen breathes of time, so that he and Man Rang could slay a few of those Profound Core Cultivators. If they could not slay even one of them, then it would only end up in failure. Even though his Array Formation’s heart could be moved around, but it was still just a Level 3 Array Formation in the end. Once the 7 Profound Core Cultivators started working together, then this kind of cyclic Level 3 Array Formation would be broken soon.

  If they could slay at least one of them, then they could once again trap another one inside, as such the time required to break the Array Formation would be extended even more. For Ning Cheng, the more number of Profound Core Cultivators that he and Man Rang could slay in a dozen breaths of time, the greater would be their success rate.

  His only worry was that among those Profound Core Cultivators, there would be a Top Tier Array Formation Master among them, and would not enter his Hidden Serial Killing Array, as such it would make his entire approach completely useless.

  Hearing Ning Cheng’s explanation, the three people including Man Rang remained silent. Even if what Ning Cheng said was true, it was still just a Level 3 Array Formation. A Level 3 Array Formation in front of a Profound Core Cultivator simply had too insignificant of a deterrence, to the point that it could even be said that it was simply non-existent.

  When Ning Cheng saw the three people silent, he once again spoke, “After this war, I will leave the Hua Continent. The only reason why I am taking such actions is because of my anger towards the Yi Xing Ocean’s cultivators, if the three of you do not agree with my approach, I can understand. Then I don’t think that we need to continue to be here, as there would be no sense to this siege as you would only be throwing your lives away.”


  Qi Xiuya was the first to respond, “I agree to it, I was born and brought up in the Hua Continent, but now that the Hua Continent is overrun, since this life was given to me in the Hua Continent, how can I retreat? Innumerable Hua Continent’s cultivator soldiers may fear falling from the sky, but I, Qi Xiuya, am not one of them.”


  Hearing Qi Xiuya agreeing to Ning Cheng’s opinion, Man Rang also spoke up in solemn voice, “Junior Commander Ning, Mo Ze City are my roots, I have been living in this Mo Ze City since I was born, but now that those animals from the Yi Xing Ocean have occupied the Mo Ze City, for me, Man Rang, to continue to drag out my life as an ignoble existence has no meaning. Since we are going to die anyway, then it is meaningless to cherish this small life of mine.”


  Jing Ji laughed, “Even though I, Jing Ji, fear death, but Junior Commander Ning, if in the future you manage to escape this place, then please remember to burn some paper in the name of I, Jing Ji.”


  [TL Note – In China there is a tradition to burn paper, especially paper money, as a remembrance and offering to one’s departed family and friends.]

  Ning Cheng smiled and spoke, “I cherish my life, how can we casually speak of dying. You can rest assured; my plan has two main points. First, it is necessary for us to trick the Yi Xing Ocean’s Profound Core Cultivators into my Hidden Serial Killing Array. If they do not come in, then my plan will fail without a doubt. But the second point is the most important point, we must in the first ten breaths kill a Profound Core Cultivator, otherwise the possibility of failure for this plan will increase by a large margin.”


  “Killing a Profound Core Cultivator within ten breaths of time, I am afraid that it would be somewhat difficult……” Although Man Rang with the help of Ning Cheng was able to kill a Profound Core Cultivator before, but that Profound Core Cultivator was battling against him for a long period of time. Moreover, it was also because that man had also underestimated Ning Cheng, that they could exploit such a two-pronged approach.

  Jing Ji also spoke up, “Junior Commander Ning, regardless of if your plan succeeds or not, wouldn’t stirring up all the Profound Core Cultivators inside be very difficult? If after they all came out, but in the end only a few entered, wouldn’t our plan fail?”


  Ning Cheng was pretty confident in this area, as he spoke, “This thing, you do not need to worry about, once I am able to set up the Hidden Serial Killing Array, then with the help of Dean Man, killing a Profound Core Cultivator within the space of ten breaths is not difficult. As for luring those Profound Core Cultivators out, it is much more simple. But one of the important factor is that there is a need for all of us to go into the array together, as a result of which we will lose some of our cultivator army, but we will at least not fail.”
