Chapter 978: Breakthrough
Sages vision switched to those of the Sea Locust, rapidly switching through the different types and examining each of the two doors. Then he switched back to the Timeless Eyes, though this time both eyes were active. More specifically, he wasnt looking at the huge double doors or the portcullis-like gate to the den. He was actually looking at the array formations used to protect them.
How is this all possible? Dont the Discipline Keepers have full control of the Academies formations?
One of the golden haired students couldnt hold it in any longer and suddenly voiced their fears. Previously, shed been too scared to say anything, but now the tense situation had caused her to lash out at those she perceived as not protecting her properly. The Discipline Keeper didnt bother to answer her as he was busy looking at Sage and the eight people that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The Demonic Beasts that put them in danger had all been handled, but now there was another dangerous variable right beside them.
The Beast Keeper has authority over the formations used on beast cages. They might need them to restrain the beasts, or alter them to properly handle unique types of beasts.
Teacher Gray was the one to answer the student, but this short answer seemed to shock the Discipline Keeper out of his restful inactivity to answer, The Beast Keepers authority over the arrays here should still be lower than that of a Discipline Keeper. He must have carefully altered the formations to give himself the highest authority. As long as we can leave the area that he has influence over, then we can call for assistance.
If his guess was right, then this flurry of attacks upon the gate would be noticed by those outside and theyd know that the battle with the Demonic Beasts was over in here. If that was the case, then the attack would be coming soon. Thats why Sage was putting so much effort into building a defensive wall in front of the door. The Sacred Banyans that wrapped up the huge door would help hold it closed and also reinforce it. The wall of bars to the side was actually quite helpful at this point as the many vines wrapped around and through it, using it to help strengthen the huge tree wall that was being grown.
Just then, there was a boom that came from outside the enclosure. Sage immediately guessed they tried to open the gate, but were unsuccessful. Now they had started to attack the door and it became a race to see who could break through faster. Would they break through the formation protecting the den, or would the main door to the enclosure be breached? Loud cracking sounds rung out through the room, caused by the first few layers of wooden lattice work breaking. The two huge doors started to move outwards, pulling at the many hundreds of woody vines that were wrapped around it.
Due to the formations still strengthening the huge pair of gates, the vines could not sink into them, and they also couldnt wrap completely around them. The grip on the door could only be so strong because of these limitations and it didnt take long for the two huge doors to be torn open. The wall of wood was now nearly a dozen feet thick and blocked all view of whatever might be waiting for them on the other side.
With the many sounds coming from the gate that was now torn open, the rest of the group had become anxious. The Discipline Keeper moved to help the Purple Mist Sect members, rushing over with his huge cleaver and smashing it down against the smaller cage wall blocking the entrance to the den area.
The solid smashing sound from the main doors had now changed to constant creaking and cracking as something, or things, were now ripping apart the tree wall that Sage had grown. He continued to thicken the wall, using his Qi as quickly as it was generated. As the wall thickened he had to step backwards. From his connection with the Sacred Banyans that hed created, he could feel how quickly the wall was being destroyed and it was slightly slower than the rate he was creating it. He took a step backwards and felt the conical tree hed made earlier behind him.
Running out of room.
