Chapter 1054: Chapter 663

"What did you say? Lao Qi is dead?"

"Indeed, Qi Lang’s Soul Lamp has extinguished."

"Who dares to be so audacious!"

"Leave the retreat immediately!"

"We must capture him, use his soul to honor Lao Qi!"

Upon hearing the words of the Black Robe elder, those powerful entities immediately started to perceive, realizing Gong Shulian’s Soul Lamp had truly extinguished, their fury erupted instantly.

Lao Qi had never managed to break through, his lifespan was running short, his spirit declining each year. To maintain his cultivation, he hadn’t even separated his Divine Soul.

With the Soul Lamp extinguished now, he was truly dead, with no chance for revival.

The anger in the hearts of these Primordial Spirit Great Powers of the Gongshu Family is imaginable.

Immediately, numerous mighty auras awoke from the inner city, rising and heading towards the outer city.

Such commotion naturally startled other powerful figures in Zhou Tian City.

Especially in the outer city, where the strong forces affiliated with the Gongshu Family were particularly shaken.

"What’s happening, why have the ancestors awoken from retreat?"

"Someone is assassinating the family’s Primordial Spirit Great Powers. Who could it be?"

"The entire City Protection Array has been activated, have they not caught the assassin yet?"

"Let’s head out quickly. If we assist the ancestors in capturing the assassin, it would at least be a great achievement!"

At once, many in the outer city within the Primordial Spirit Realm began to act, aiming to help the ancestors capture the assassin.

As for those in the Golden Core Realm, they dared not act.

Earlier, they had clearly heard the assassin killed a Gongshu family’s Primordial Spirit Ancestor. Facing such a terrifying presence, going as a Golden Core Realm cultivator would be no different than a death sentence.

Achievements are good, but one must have a life to claim them.

"Lao Si, we’re almost there. Have you caught that thief yet?"

As the Gongshu family’s stronghold, Zhou Tian City is vast. Even the Primordial Spirit Great Powers couldn’t traverse it in a short time.

Otherwise, Lu Qing wouldn’t have taken nearly half a year, even with a Superpower, to understand the array situation here.

From the moment Lu Qing killed Gong Shulian and escaped, to the Black Robe elder’s appearance, and then to him awakening the many ancestors of the inner city, only twenty to thirty breaths had passed.

From the awakening of those Gongshu family’s ancestors to now, less than ten breaths had passed, not enough for them to arrive quickly.

"That fellow is extremely cunning, continuously using buildings to block my sight. But I’ve locked onto his aura, he won’t escape... how is it possible!"

Hovering over Zhou Tian City, the Black Robe elder confidently replied.

He could indeed be faster and catch up with the assassin, but considering the opponent killed Lao Qi in a flash, he was somewhat apprehensive.

So he planned to wait for reinforcements to arrive, then capture him together.

However, before he could finish his reply, his eyes suddenly widened with a gasp.

His body accelerated swiftly, arriving in a surrounding region, Primordial Spirit Power enveloping all around.

Yet no matter how he searched, he couldn’t find that faint aura anymore.

"Lao Si, what’s wrong, where’s the assassin?"

At this moment, more than ten figures suddenly descended, arriving beside the Black Robe elder.

"Strange, I was certain I had locked onto the assassin’s aura, yet moments ago his aura suddenly vanished, unable to be sensed anymore."

The Black Robe elder’s face showed discomfort.

"Vanished? Could he possibly have fled the city?" a figure inquired.

"Impossible, I’ve already activated the City Protection Array. Without permission, no one could possibly escape! Moreover, I haven’t felt any array fluctuations."

The Black Robe figure’s expression was stern.

"Then he must still be within the city, perhaps concealing his aura using a Magical Treasure."

Another elder with white hair and a youthful face coldly stated, "Did he think hiding his aura with a treasure would let him escape?

Lao Si, transmit the aura you sensed earlier from the assassin to us.

Lao Da, Lao Er, you and I shall together activate the array, to search the entire outer city. Even if he uses a Spiritual Artifact to hide, he won’t escape the Circulation Star Array’s search!"

"Yes, Father!"

With unmatched powerful figures responding together.

The Black Robe elder first simulated an aura based on his earlier perception, transmitting it to his father and elder brothers.

Shortly thereafter, under the lead of the white-haired youthful elder, three Primordial Spirit Great Powers cast spells, descending upon the ground beneath.

In the next moment, the entire array of the outer city began to operate.

The immense Array Power, ignoring any obstruction, commenced inch-by-inch search throughout the entire outer city.

The first area searched was where the Black Robe elder sensed the assassin’s aura disappearance.

Expectedly, they found nothing there.

But the group was undeterred, continuing to search other places.

Those strong figures of various forces in the outer city naturally felt the terrifying array fluctuations.

Yet they dared not express any dissatisfaction, even cautiously remaining where they were, allowing the array fluctuations to sweep over them without resistance.

Because they knew the Gongshu family’s ancestors were searching for the assassin.

If one isn’t careful, and it’s believed they have some connection with the assassin, they’d be truly unable to explain and doomed.

"Indeed, they’ve activated the Circulation Star Array."

While the Gongshu family’s ancestors activated the array for search.

In a hidden corner over ten miles away, Lu Qing’s figure slowly emerged.
