A day later, the Demon King, having exhausted the Demon Race’s foundation, gave Logan 10,000 top-grade spirit stones, betting all on him.
Feeling the weighty spirit stones, Logan felt immense pressure and assured the Demon King, “Rest assured, I will do everything in my power to help the Demon Beast Secret Realm return to normal.”
“You’re an array master, and I won’t meddle in professional matters, but remember, there won’t be a second chance because we can’t gather any more spirit stones,” the Demon King said, word by word, looking at Logan. For these 10,000 top-grade spirit stones, he, the king of the Monster Beast Clan, had humbly pleaded with numerous clans, even guaranteeing them with the Demon King’s name, which convinced them to part with all their spirit stones, involving over a hundred clans.
Logan said nothing in reply and soon arrived at an open space, ready to start arranging the Spirit Gathering Array. He had set up this array many times before, it could be said to be right up his alley, but this was the first time it had been scaled up a hundredfold, using top-grade spirit stones no less.
Therefore, he too was unsure, but succeed he must. This was not only a promise to the Demon King but also crucial to the safety of the outside world. He was certain that, although the Demon King had not threatened anything, if he failed, the Demon King’s next step would be to wage war on the outside world.
First, taking out a hundred top-grade spirit stones, Logan outlined the scope of the entire Spirit Gathering Array, placing one stone at each cardinal direction, which formed the foundation of the array. Top-grade spirit stones were more than ten thousand times stronger than ordinary ones; one per direction was enough, where ordinary stones would require ten thousand.
Logan then took out a thousand top-grade spirit stones to outline the meridians of the Spirit Gathering Array and the trajectory of the spiritual energy circulation. Unlike before, the array he was about to arrange would collect the surrounding spiritual energy to enhance the Secret Land, without stripping the neighboring areas bare.
After everything was set up, the formal array arranging began. He first took out thirty million ordinary spirit stones to trace the runes, instantly surrounded by a sky full of golden light. Countless spirit stones whirled about like starlight, and these shimmering points of light also brought immense deterrence to the Demon King watching from the side.
Then, he infused the remaining nine thousand top-grade spirit stones, and the force of the Law within the stones burst forth, turning Logan’s complexion pale. The power was overwhelming; with his current Quasi-Saint strength, he simply couldn’t make the energy within the spirit stones remain calm.
But he couldn’t back down now. If the spirit stones were to go out of control, they would explode in the surrounding space, not only wasting the spirit stones but potentially destroying hundreds of miles around them, bringing calamity to the Monster Beast Clan in the vicinity. He couldn’t allow such a scene to happen.
So, even though he couldn’t hold on, Logan still exerted all his strength, continually infusing powerful Divine Skills to integrate the nine thousand-plus top-grade spirit stones into the array runes. Half an hour passed, and Logan had neutralized a small half, but still a large part raged uncontrollably.
Already greatly fatigued, if he kept on, even if he exhausted all his power, he wouldn’t be able to stable all the spirit stones, and arranging the array later would require even more physical strength. How could he quickly stabilize the spirit stones so that the spiritual energy and the Law wouldn’t run wild?
With a headache, Logan thought of a strategy and directly used his Emperor Weapon to strike at the spirit stones. Although the stones had no consciousness, all spiritual energy was used to defend against it. Seizing this critical moment, Logan quickly embedded the spirit stones into the runes.
He then put his Emperor Weapon away and revealed a slight smile. This step was now secured, and what followed in arranging the array became much simpler because it was merely a matter of physical exertion. As long as each step was stable and undisturbed, the Spirit Gathering Array was halfway done.
The Demon King, who watched in trepidation, finally breathed a sigh of relief as Logan’s expression eased, knowing that Logan had overcome the difficulty.
Just then, a group of people arrived and knelt down immediately, “Great Demon King, please reconsider, you must not let Logan arrange the array!”
“What’s the matter, is there a problem with his array arrangement?” the Demon King frowned and was displeased. These people caused trouble every few days. He had even executed one of them before; wasn’t that enough to deter the rest? How dare they? He couldn’t fathom what deep animosity they harbored against Logan.
Was it simply because he was from the Human race? Regardless of who Logan was, as long as he could resolve the Monster Beast Clan’s predicament, that’s all that mattered. After all, if the entire Secret Land was truly destroyed, where would the hundreds of thousands in the Secret Land turn to? As the Demon King, he was wholeheartedly seeking a future for the Monster Beast Clan.
“Logan surely has ulterior motives. Taking our 10,000 top-grade spirit stones under the pretense of arranging a Spirit Gathering Array, who knows if it’s actually a Killing Array? It could encompass our entire Demon Beast Secret Realm and the hundreds of thousands of the Monster Beast Clan are in danger. Logan could wipe us out in an instant,” they said.
“You must not trust Logan, the Demon King. After all, he’s an outsider. We’ve also captured Wexler Daoist before, and there’s already conflict with Logan. How could he possibly be so kind as to help us? Normally, he’d probably want something bad to happen to the Secret Land. Logan is too abnormal,” they continued.
The group pleaded incessantly with the Demon King, who remained unmoved, not crediting their words, which made them all the more anguished and furious.
“Demon King, by trusting an outsider like this, you’re bringing the Monster Beast Clan towards destruction. We are heartbroken; we have only the safety of the Monster Beast Clan in mind. Can’t you see clearly?” they urged.
These dozens of people were all elders of the Monster Beast Clan, having lived for at least a few thousand years, witnessed too much, and believed that the Human and Demon races could not coexist peacefully. Logan, as a human, was not to be trusted. Even if something happened to the Secret Land, they couldn’t let outsiders rescue it.
