Many people heard Tamor Grand's words, and everyone understood what he meant: the sect leaders and powerful cultivators trapped by the array of Starhaven City were finished.
With such a terrifying Immortal Spirit Vein providing immortal energy, as long as the City Lord can control the defensive array, not a single person will be able to escape.
As for whether Joe Di can control the defensive array, if Loraine Puregate wasn’t present, perhaps some would still have doubts. Now that Joe Di has Loraine Puregate helping him, it’s essentially a foregone conclusion.
......
Under Zane Fate’s incitement, nearly all the cultivators trapped by Joe Di were fighting with everything they had. Even if Joe Di didn’t enter the array to battle the trapped cultivators directly, he was still under immense pressure at this moment.
This Chained Execution Array is said to be an eighth-grade immortal array, but in reality, it only approaches eighth-grade thanks to the amplification of the Terraflame Banner. If the Starwater Banner were added, it would undoubtedly reach eighth-grade. However, since the Starwater Banner serves as the core of the Grand Five Elements Immortal Array, Joe Di is not planning to use it for now.
At this moment, killing intent surged throughout the grand array, and the sounds of treasures and the blades within the Deathtrap Immortal Array clashing and exploding echoed incessantly.
Every moment, the grand array emitted cracking sounds. If Joe Di wasn’t still presiding over the array, a crack might have already formed in it.
Although Joe Di’s strength far surpasses others at his level, his cultivation is still too weak—he hasn’t even reached the Golden Immortal stage yet. Even if he attacks a Grand Luo Immortal trapped inside, at most he can only injure them.
The number of cultivators being struck down by the Deathtrap Array kept increasing, and the trembling of the array grew ever stronger.
Joe Di was somewhat worried that the Deathtrap Array might be shattered. He turned back to Loraine Puregate and said, "Sect Master Puregate..."
Loraine Puregate seemed to know what Joe Di was about to say. She sighed, "City Lord Di, I can help kill Zane Fate..."
Joe Di was a clever man. Hearing Loraine Puregate's words, he realized that asking her to do what he had done earlier—continuously slaying those trapped by the Deathtrap Immortal Array—was unrealistic.
As the Puregate Sect Master, Loraine Puregate could handle killing a few people, but expecting her to slaughter thousands of capable opponents was likely beyond her abilities.
Joe Di inwardly scorned this woman's hypocrisy, but could only agree with her reasoning.
Loraine Puregate saw through Joe Di's thoughts and still offered an explanation, "City Lord Di, as long as you kill Zane Fate, the rest you don't need to handle. The Immortal Execution Array will be completed."
Joe Di's mind stirred—yes, why hadn't he thought of that? The reason the Chained Immortal Execution Array kept trembling was because Zane Fate was a Sixth-Tier Immortal Array Master. Not only that, he was also a cultivator at the peak of the Immortal King realm. Killing him would stabilize the Immortal Execution Array considerably.
With that in mind, Joe Di tossed several Array Banners down, opening a passage before Loraine Puregate. She immediately saw Zane Fate, who was frantically attacking the Deathtrap Immortal Array.
At this moment, Zane Fate had lost all the bearing of the Fatespire Sect Master. Bloodied and disheveled, with dozens of wounds across his body—while none were fatal, the relentless assaults of the Execution Array would eventually claim his life.
"Loraine Puregate, you dare collude with a mere ant who just arrived in the Immortal Realm to oppose my Fatespire Sect?" The moment he saw Loraine Puregate, Zane Fate roared in fury and lunged at her.
