The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1515
A noise echoed throughout the underground palace.
“What’s that noise?”
Distraught, everyone scanned their surroundings.
At that moment, tiny holes appeared on the steel plates. Then, a strange and unpleasant odor permeated the air.
James’ face darkened as he yelled, “Hold your breath, everyone! This is poisonous gas!”
Everyone held their breaths.
Soon, the poisonous gas filled the entire underground palace.
Swish!
An arrow was fired.
James raised his hand and slashed the Blade of Justice in his hand, which accurately slashed the incoming arrow into two.
Swish!
One arrow... Two arrows... Ten arrows...
More and more arrows were fired from all sides.
The trapped martial artists pulled out their swords and deflected the arrows. Although the arrows were fired at great speed, they
managed to react in time and dodge the arrows. So, the arrows could not deal any effective damage to them.
However, at that moment, a tiny steel wire suddenly came from nowhere. Then, steel wires began striking the martial artists from
all sides at great speeds.
Unable to dodge in time, a martial artist’s arm was severed.
“Damn it!’ James cursed.

Then, he raised the Blade of Justice and performed the Thirteen Heavenly Swords to their perfection. Thirteen waves of Sword
Energy sliced at the steel wires. However, the steel wires seemed to be made of extremely solid material. Not even the Sword
Energy of James’ Thirteen Heavenly Swords could slice them.
In just a short amount of time, the ancient martial artists who came along with James began suffering great casualties.
In a room in the underground palace...
Seeing the desperate state James and the others were in, Lucjan burst into a peal of laughter.
Ezekiel who was beside him stroked his beard and said smilingly, “The Thousand-Machinery Formation is ever-changing and
unpredictable. This is only just the beginning. If they still can’t comprehend the secret of the formation, they’ll be trapped inside
until they die of exhaustion.”
At the same time, James continued dodging the attacks. As he had to be on alert for any incoming arrow projectiles while taking
care to evade the steel wires which would appear out of nowhere, he was in a rather compromising position.
Swish!
“You’ve kept me waiting, James.”
Lucjan looked at James and the martial artists of the ancient martial world with a mischievous grin on his face.
“It’d be a shame to kill you. However, since you insisted on making my life difficult, I have no choice but to get rid of you. I will
first capture you and lure the others here. After killing you, I will inject Gu venom into your body and control you.”
“Lucjan...” James’ face darkened, and he said coldly, “You will not leave this place alive.”
Holding the Blade of Justice in his hand, he charged violently toward Lucjan. Meanwhile, Lucjan hastily retreated. By the time
James arrived at Lucjan’s location, he was already gone without a trace. Just as he was about to give chase, unusual changes
occurred in the surroundings.
This was an underground palace around 1000 square meters in area. Steel plates suddenly emerged from the surrounding walls.
Boom!
Just as James was dazed by the changes, a loud noise reverberated throughout the underground palace. James turned his head
and realized that the passageway further ahead was blocked by a stone wall. “Oh no.”

At that moment, James had a bad feeling.
He knew that this place would be full of traps. However, to save the abducted martial artists and annihilate the Gu Sect, he came
nonetheless.
He hurriedly retreated and met up with Jackson and the others.
Wearing a grim expression, Jackson said, “The way back has been blocked.”
Crack!
A noise echoed throughout the underground palace.
“What’s that noise?”
Distraught, everyone scanned their surroundings.
At that moment, tiny holes appeared on the steel plates. Then, a strange and unpleasant odor permeated the air.
James’ face darkened as he yelled, “Hold your breath, everyone! This is poisonous gas!”
Everyone held their breaths.

At the same time, James continued dodging the attacks. As he had to be on alert for any incoming arrow projectiles while taking
care to evade the steel wires which would appear out of nowhere, he was in a rather compromising position.
Swish!
Sword Energy burst forth and struck the stone wall in the distance. However, hi’s Sword Energy could not deal any effective
damage to the stone wall.
Just as James was busy evading the projectiles, a huge web suddenly fell from above. Unable to dodge in time, an ancient
martial artist was ensnared. The more he struggled, the tighter the web became. In just a short amount of time, he was
completely immobilized. Then, a passageway appeared below him, and he fell into the depths. The passageway was sealed shut
immediately after.
Soon, more and more ancient martial artists were trapped and fell into the depths.
“James, this is the Thousand-Machinery Formation!”

Jackson’s voice came from afar.
Upon hearing this, James momentarily froze before asking, “What is the Thousand-Machinery Formation?”
“It is a formation created by Lazarus Zayden, a renowned tactician and strategist of the Three Kingdoms Period. It is created
specifically to deal with extremely powerful martial artists. Legend has it that this formation has a thousand different forms. Even
a legendary martial artist would be trapped inside if he doesn’t know the secret behind the formation.”
Jackson’s attention was diverted. At that moment, he was ensnared by the web. As a seventh-rank grandmaster, he catalyzed
True Energy in the hopes of breaking free, but no matter how hard he tried, the web did not budge at all. In an instant, the ground
below him gave way, and he also fell into the depths. “Mr. Cabral!”
James rushed toward him in vain. He was too late.
At that moment, only he remained in the underground palace. Everyone else had been captured.
“Damn it!” James cursed.
He knew that this place would be full of traps. However, he did not expect it to be the terrifying Thousand- Machinery Formation.
“What should I do?” James panicked.
