Chapter 2074: Three Array Talismans
Billy knew that a battle with Frost Palace was inevitable. Encountering their high-ranking members today, he wouldn’t let them leave alive.
At that moment, a ninth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder from Frost Palace had just clashed with a ninth-rank Sacred Realm elder from the Array Alliance, both retreating several hundred meters. Before the elder could catch his breath, Billy’s Heavenly Fury Slash was already upon him. Although the elder was of ninth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm, his combat strength had dropped by thirty to forty percent. One Heavenly Fury Slash was enough to kill him instantly.
After the slash, the elder’s body paused momentarily in mid-air before falling freely to the ground. Simultaneously, a storage ring flew into Billy’s hand.
“Elder Eugene and the others are dead! Run!” shouted a man from Frost Palace. Hearing this, the remaining Frost Palace members hesitated for a moment before fleeing in all directions without any delay.
The Array Alliance members were also stunned but did not pursue, as they were already heavily injured and lacked the strength. “Since you’re here, stay,” Billy said, chasing after another ninth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm and an eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm member.
“Leave your storage rings if you want to run!” shouted Stout as he chased after a mid-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm man. Casey and the others followed suit.
“Stout, be careful!” Harleen and Ivy followed him. “Kill!” Casey took a deep breath and chased after another person. Opal and Amber also joined the pursuit.
They knew that if they didn’t kill the Frost Palace members today, they would face them again in the future. It was better to resolve it now.
The entire process lasted about fifteen minutes, leaving all Frost Palace members dead on the ground. After the battle, Billy helped Azure Dragon and White Tiger treat their injuries.
“Boss, did you get the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass?” Azure Dragon asked Billy. “Yes,” Billy nodded and briefly described what had happened in the ice cave.
“Damn, I knew the Array Alliance couldn’t be trusted!” Judge commented. “Boss, he won’t let this go easily. We should kill him to prevent future troubles,” Ian Blade said solemnly.
“I agree, let’s just kill them!” Stout added, “Their storage rings must have good stuff, especially that old man!”
“They’re coming!” Felicia said, looking to the left. “Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Soon, Jasper Muir and Morgan Muir arrived with other Array Alliance members. Howlin Muir sat alone on an ice block in the distance, either healing or too embarrassed to come forward.
“I knew you Array Alliance people couldn’t be trusted!” Soul Chaser glanced at them. “Mr. Billy, this is a misunderstanding!” Jasper Muir bowed after taking a deep breath. He had already learned about the situation from Howlin Muir.
“The old leader didn’t understand Mr. Billy’s capabilities and wanted to invite him to join the Array Alliance. I apologize on his behalf.” As he spoke, he took out three Array Talismans and handed them to Billy.
“To express our apology, please accept these three Array Talismans,” Jasper Muir said. “Three talismans? That’s it?” Soul Chaser questioned.
“These are not ordinary talismans; they are treasures of our Array Alliance,” Jasper Muir explained. “By activating one Array Talisman, you can instantly set up a high-level attack and defensive array without any preparation.”
“Really?” Soul Chaser was surprised. Billy and the others were also intrigued; if true, these talismans were valuable.
“I swear it’s true,” Jasper Muir confirmed. “However, the array activated by an Array Talisman lasts only half an hour before disappearing automatically.”
“Half an hour? That’s enough!” Soul Chaser replied. Half an hour was indeed sufficient. In a battle, if they were losing, activating an Array Talisman could at least give them time to escape.
“Is that all? Three talismans are not enough sincerity for an apology,” Stout said as he put the talismans into his storage ring. “If you can give us a hundred or so talismans, we might consider letting it go.”
Jasper Muir and his group were taken aback by Stout’s demand. “Mr. Billy, I only brought three this time. If there’s another chance…” Jasper Muir looked at Billy.
“How do you activate these talismans?” Billy interrupted. He knew making these talismans wasn’t easy; getting three was already generous.
Jasper Muir explained how to activate them simply. “I hope you’re not lying,” Azure Dragon said after listening.
“I swear it’s true,” Jasper Muir replied.
“Do you know how to use this?” Billy took out the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass from his storage ring.
“The Heavenly Xuan Array Compass is easy to operate. Just recognize it with blood, then project spiritual power into its space for detailed instructions,” Jasper Muir explained.
“Can’t it be used without recognizing it?” Billy asked while trying to project spiritual power into it but got no response.
“No, it can’t,” Jasper Muir replied. “Without recognition, anyone could control it remotely.”
“That makes sense,” Billy said. “How do you sever its connection with the previous owner?”Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“It automatically connects to the latest person who recognizes it with blood,” Jasper Muir explained.
“So if someone else recognizes it with blood, it disconnects from the previous owner and connects to the new one?” White Tiger asked.
“Exactly,” Jasper Muir confirmed. “Mr. Billy, you can try it.”
“Alright,” Billy agreed. He cut his finger and let three drops of blood fall onto the compass.
