Even the promotion itself is a trap; who could have foreseen that?

Wang Ye glanced in the direction where Wang Yifeng was.

Truly worthy of being his mentor.

It was only now that Wang Ye finally realized just how terrifying his mentor could be in various aspects.

In this battle, if Wang Yifeng had not appeared in time, Wang Ye and the others would not have been able to see through the schemes laid down by Zhang Yanling.

They would have been dealt with by Zhang Yanling even before his promotion.

This wasn't solely due to Wang Yifeng's strength.

It was also his ability to see through schemes.

Zhang Yanling looked appreciatively at Wang Yifeng: "Wang Yifeng, you are truly impressive. All my strategies were flawless."

"Before you appeared, your disciple had already disrupted some of my plans, and when you arrived, you further disrupted the rest of my plans."

Zhang Yanling scrutinized Wang Ye and Wang Yifeng.

The next moment.

The aura around Zhang Yanling instantly surged!

The sound of his voice grew much louder in an instant.

"But in the face of absolute power, having ascended to the Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm, not one of you can defeat me!"

Zhang Yanling advanced to the Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm!

At the moment Zhang Yanling ascended to the Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm, the scene he had just set up finally vanished without a trace.

All the power dissipated.

From the shadow of the Lord of the Universe, to the scene capable of killing, Zhang Yanling had arranged all this time from the start, knowing under what circumstances these time arrangements could benefit him.

Having inherited the power of the Catastrophe Dao, Zhang Yanling's expression carried a hint of madness. He shouted towards Yuan Mou, Yuan Lue, the Sect Master of Heaven's Horizon Sect, and other Sect Masters not under the control of Yanling Sect, who were hiding:

"Don't hide any longer! Come out! Do you really think you can evade under the might of a half-step Heavenly King Realm powerhouse? Foolishness!"

When Zhang Yanling said this.

Yuan Lue, Yuan Lue, and the Sect Master of Heaven's Horizon Sect realized there was no point in hiding further and emerged one by one.

However, they did not attack Zhang Yanling directly.

Instead, they settled in several positions, taking seats in those places.

Wang Ye, Shi Heng, Wang Yifeng, and the others also moved from their previous positions to other locations, forming ten positions.

At that instant, as the ten people appeared above the formation, a formation emerged.

The formation was filled with intense killing intent, and at its center, it was as if a chain had bound Zhang Yanling to the middle, enveloping him in a sudden sense of fear that erased the smile he had just displayed.

"You had set up the formation beforehand?"

Zhang Yanling asked.

Under the power of the formation, he was completely bound in place, unable to move.

"Otherwise?"

Wang Ye smiled at Zhang Yanling and spoke: "You broke through at the original spot, taking so much time. If we hadn't set up a formation ahead of time for you, wouldn't it have failed to do your hard-earned promotion justice?"

The formation was arranged by Wang Ye, Wang Yifeng, and Shi Heng when Zhang Yanling was advancing.

Though they didn't stop Zhang Yanling's attack.

When Zhang Yanling was breaking through, they couldn't do nothing.

Otherwise, they would have handed Zhang Yanling a direct advantage.

"You... you..."

Wang Ye's words made Zhang Yanling glare angrily at Wang Ye, trying to break free from the constraints of the formation.

Using the power of the Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm, the entire formation trembled violently.

As if it was about to shatter completely.

"Guard the formation! Activate the formation! Use the power of the formation directly with ten people and deal with Zhang Yanling!"

Wang Ye shouted loudly.

The feeling was unusual.

Despite Wang Yifeng showing greater power among the ten, and Wang Ye being the youngest in terms of seniority.

In these circumstances.

Wang Ye unexpectedly became the leader among them.

Yet, when Wang Ye spoke, everyone felt it was perfectly normal.

Under Wang Ye's command.

These people began guarding the formation, channeling their power into it.

The formation unleashed a formidable force, and within moments, the constraints that Zhang Yanling was almost about to break were stabilized.

Not only that.

A powerful force from the constraints rushed towards Zhang Yanling.

With Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm power, he couldn't withstand this force!

"This... this is impossible!"

Zhang Yanling's face lost all arrogance he felt from advancing to the Half-Step Emperor Lord Realm, looking incredulously and fearfully at Wang Ye, Wang Yifeng, and the group.

They're just a group of Heavenly King Realm experts.

And only Wang Ye and Wang Yifeng truly possess Peak Heavenly King Realm strength.

Though Wang Yifeng's realm isn't at the Peak Heavenly King Realm, his strength surpasses Wang Ye's at this level.

The others.

Shi Heng.

Yuan Mou.

Yuan Lue.

The Sect Master of Heaven's Horizon Sect.

They just advanced to the Heavenly King Realm.

Yet, merely through a formation, they entirely subdued him.

All his power couldn't be unleashed, and the purifying Dao power was ineffective against the formation.

"Catastrophe!"

Zhang Yanling roared.

A thunderbolt appeared above the head of the Sect Master of Tianji Sect, imbued with power from Nine Provinces Hell, ruthlessly striking down.

The power of the Catastrophe Dao.

When used against others, it could plunge them into catastrophe, allowing forces to attack them arbitrarily.

The Sect Master of Tianji Sect ignored this force, and the next second, Long Qingtian and Xu Heng materialized above him, helping fend off the attack.

It was a force targeting the Heavenly King Realm experts!
