The leaders of the two teams were Marquise Thompson and Isaac Herring.
The total number was around a thousand, all of them with cultivation levels above the Saint realm.
Their targets were Wricester and Ukhada!
In the past two days, two waves of people, Harleen and Azure Fang, went to Wricester and Ukhada, besides scouting, their purpose was to investigate the military strength of the two cities.
According to the feedback from everyone, as the key towns of Sheardal Empire, each city had a strong eighth-rank Divine Realm powerhouse stationed.
And Marquise Thompson and Isaac Herring had both advanced to the late stage of the eighth-rank Divine Realm, with the ninth-rank Divine Realm just a step away.
With them leading the teams, along with a thousand elites, they could at least stand undefeated.
At eight o’clock in the morning, the two teams officially set off, heading towards the directions of the two major cities in the sky.
“Billy, let’s go too!” Then, Stephanie Stuart looked at Billy and said.
“Mom, you and Aunt Edie don’t need to go, wait for our news in Skydragon City,” Billy said.
“Billy, are you afraid that Stephanie and I will be a burden to you?” Edie Fennimore smiled and said.
“Aunt Edie, that’s not what I meant…” Billy’s mouth twitched slightly.
“Let’s go! Don’t waste time!” Stephanie Stuart interrupted him.
For her, how could she not go for such a thing? Even if she stayed in Skydragon City, her heart wouldn’t be at peace.
“Okay then!” Billy didn’t insist anymore.
Then, a group of twenty people flew towards the direction of Sheardal Imperial City.
Originally, Sol Stuart was supposed to go with them, but he was persuaded by Billy to stay with Zak Callahan in Skydragon City.
At noon, the group landed on a piece of empty land about a hundred kilometers away from the Imperial City.
According to Billy’s plan, their group would split into two, with one part going to the valley and the other part going to the Imperial City.
A few minutes later, Billy, Stephanie Stuart, Edie Fennimore, Casey, as well as Harleen and Ivy, headed towards the valley.
While Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird, and others, continued flying towards Sheardal Imperial City.
The reason for this arrangement was because Billy knew very well that for their group, the main battlefield today was not in the Imperial City but in that valley, which was likely to be a fierce battle.
So, Azure Dragon and his group wouldn’t be very helpful in the valley, and they had other tasks going to the Imperial City.
Ten minutes later, Billy and the others arrived at the entrance of the valley.
“Boss, any plans?” Casey asked.
“Everyone, stay alert, and give me some time!” After Billy finished speaking, he sat down cross-legged on the ground.
Then, he released his spiritual power to envelop the entire valley.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and Billy opened his eyes and stood up from the ground.
“Billy, how is it?” Ivy asked.
“The eye of the defensive formation in the valley is located on the Phad star position of the Dark Big Dipper Array!” Billy pointed to a nearby huge rock with a slightly serious tone.
After a momentary pause, he continued, “In the Dark Big Dipper Array, apart from the central area of Alioth, the Phad star position is the most powerful area.”
“This person who set up the formation is quite extraordinary!” Stephanie Stuart frowned slightly.
“The eyes of the two linked arrays are placed on their respective most powerful points. To break the defensive formation, one must withstand the strongest attacks from the Dark Big Dipper Array!”
“Yeah!” Billy nodded and continued, “Mom, Ivy will be responsible for blocking the eyes of the defensive formation later.”
“And once she starts, the Dark Big Dipper Array will activate, and it will only stop after I destroy the eyes of this formation.”
“It’s very difficult for her alone to withstand the attacks of the Dark Big Dipper Array. You, Aunt Edie, Casey, and Harleen, protect her for a while.”
“Boss, why not let Ivy directly destroy the eyes of the defensive formation? That way, at least she can stay away from the Phad star position.” Casey asked.
Edie Fennimore and Harleen both looked at Billy at the same time, apparently also puzzled.
“It will be difficult to destroy the eyes of the defensive formation before the Dark Big Dipper Array is broken!” Billy replied thoughtfully.
“Oh, I see.” Edie Fennimore nodded with some understanding.
“Ivy, it’s almost time, let’s start!” Billy then looked at Ivy and said.
“Okay!” Ivy nodded and walked towards the huge rock, followed closely by Stephanie Stuart and the others.
“Billy, I’m starting!” Shortly after arriving not far from that huge rock, Ivy exclaimed loudly.
As her voice fell, a strong invisible ripple spread from her brow.
Soon, the array eyes on the ‘Phad’ position and the main body of the array in the valley were blocked.
“I’ll give it a try first!” At the same time, Casey said in a deep voice.
As his voice sounded, his eyes narrowed, and he wielded the Celestial Blade forcefully, activating the Celestial Blade Art.
In the next moment, the curtain of energy-laden blades swiftly slashed towards the huge rock.
Boom!
A deafening roar resounded, and the shock wave sent Casey back tens of steps.
Looking at the huge rock again, apart from some small stones falling off, there was nothing else unusual.
Stephanie Stuart and the others couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Casey, who was now at the seventh-rank Divine Realm, should have been able to kill opponents at the ninth-rank Divine Realm with full force, but he couldn’t even break a stone.
Obviously, under the array’s influence, the hardness of the huge rock had increased at least tenfold.
Almost at the same time as Casey’s slash, countless sharp and incomparable Chi appeared in the void.
Obviously, because Ivy had blocked the array eyes, the Dark Big Dipper Array had officially activated!
Soon, it enveloped an area of about twenty kilometers, forming a huge killing formation.
The Chi crushed everything in its path, causing towering trees to collapse and leaving terrifying cracks in the ground wherever it passed.
As Billy expected, the Chi near several ‘star positions’ was obviously several levels stronger than elsewhere.
From the momentum of these formations, it was enough to kill mid-level Divine Realm experts.
Although Harleen and Ivy had defensive auras, within a few breaths, they had several superficial injuries on their bodies.
Fortunately, Stephanie Stuart promptly condensed a protective barrier to cover everyone.
Then, Casey, Edie Fennimore, and Harleen simultaneously released Chi power to reinforce the barrier.
Even so, when the Chi slashed against the barrier, the discomfort for several people was still very strong.
At the same time, Billy had flown into the valley.
The Chi inside the valley was even more fierce than near the several ‘star positions.’
Fortunately, with Billy’s current strength, blocking these Chi with the activation of his bloodline power was a trivial matter.
The dense Chi could only slightly hinder his speed.
Soon, Billy landed in the valley.
After the formation line of the array was blocked, although the array eyes were not destroyed, the array was equivalent to being broken.
However, if Ivy withdrew her spiritual power, the array would automatically operate again.
So, at this moment, the center of the valley revealed its original appearance.
Under a stone wall about fifty to sixty meters high, there was a cave entrance about a dozen meters wide and long, which was obviously the entrance to the national treasury.
Then, Billy sat cross-legged, allowing the strong Chi to continuously bombard his defensive aura.
Immediately after, he released his spiritual power to probe the location of the array eye of the Dark Big Dipper Array.
It was obviously not an easy task to sort out the formation line of the Dark Big Dipper Array in such a complex environment.
“Who goes there?”
Less than two minutes later, an old man’s voice resounded through the air.
At the same time, a terrifying oppressive aura swept over.
