The surface of these iron pillars was covered with eerie runes, flickering with a ghostly light under the faint moonlight, as if they were alive.
The Demon Cultivators inserted the iron pillars deeply into the ground one by one, following a specific orientation.
With each pillar inserted, the ground trembled slightly, and the air around grew increasingly cold.
"Rise!"
Elder Li swiftly formed seals with his hands, chanting continuously.
Under the influence of his Golden Core-level mana, an aura connected the deeply buried dark iron pillars, and a cold black energy snaked its way into the earth.
This black energy seemed to have a consciousness, tracing the earth's veins and beginning to delineate the earth's energy of Thousand Leaves Mountain.
This was a special array meticulously designed and set up by an Array Grandmaster from the One Qi Alliance, specifically meant to dismantle mountain protection arrays from their roots.
