The five undead card demigods dashed towards Anna, encircling her. Then they each summoned their respective diamond grimoire.
"..." Seeing each of the undead demigods summon diamond grimoire, Anna became speechless.
"Brat, just give up. Though your family heirloom grants you the strength to fight a demigod, I don't believe that it will be enough to fight five demigods at once." Though Yin Widow wanted to teach Anna a lesson, she had her priorities straight. And saving her son came first, and it would save a lot of time if Anna were just to give up.
"Give up?..." Anna's words trailed as she vanished from her spot and appeared above one of the undead demigods and threw a punch aiming for its head.
*boom* Upon the impact of Anna's punch, a loud explosive sound was heard, and dust rose, covering the other's view, preventing them from knowing the result of the collision.
*shatter* It turns out the undead demigod blocked Anna punch by invoking a barrier card. Though it could stop Anna's fist, it crumbled like bread upon impact.
"Old hag, this demigod is stronger than you. There is no way you could have killed him. Tell me, which family's ancestral grave you rob to create such a strong undead demigod. " The force behind Anna's Giga body punch could punch a hole through an average SSS-grade card, but this one was able to block her punch.
"I am no grave robber, and this card doesn't work like that. I can only summon people killed in this trap card as undead.
These undead demigods you are fighting are from the Way Beyond war. The Yin-Yang harmony sect ancestors had trapped and murdered them all secretly. Hoping to use this card as their trump card." The SSS-grade trap card was one of the cards she stole from the treasury of the Yin-Yang harmony sect.
"These demigods are from that era. No wonder that thing was able to withstand my punch." Anna finally understood why these demigods were strong enough to withstand the strength of the grand array formation. They were the demigods from the ancient period. During that period, monsters and supreme beings ran rampant. Despite the long lifespan of card apprentices, living past 40 years old was considered lucky. And those who could reach the demigod realm in such a turbulent era could be regarded as the strongest and the brightest.
"Now that you understand that, How about you give up?" Yin Widow still did not give up persuading Anna to surrender.
"I always wondered what kind of cards you stole from the Yin-Yang harmony sect for them to put a bounty of 20 divinity on your head. Seeing this card in action. I got to say this card is indeed worth 20 divinity or even more. Not to mention the ugly past of the Yin-Yang harmony sect that is buried in this card. If the world knew what the Yin Yang harmony sect did during that era, this world would not have a place for them. " 20 divinity equals 20 demigods, which is massive wealth even for a secret sect such as the Yin-Yang harmony sect. But compared to the ugly past of the sect, it was nothing. And also, they never planned to pay the bounty. They were just trying their luck and making things difficult for Yin Widow.
"It seems you do not plan on giving up. You made your bed, do not blame me; I did give you a choice. Commence six-pointed star array formation." Seeing Anna had no notion of giving up, Yin Widow decided to go full out and capture Anna into submission. Yin Widow had finally found a clue that her Son's bloodline Vessel was in a dungeon. Since she was last spotted in the Sky Blossom city, it was very likely that her son's bloodline vessel was in one of the dungeons within the vicinity of the Sky Blossom city.
Yin Widow was a fugitive on the run with a total of 25 divinity bounty on her head. She was wanted by the Heatsend Royal family and Yin-Yang Harmony sect. Therefore, she could not stay in one place for an extended period. Now that the grand array formation of the southern region had found her whereabouts, it wouldn't be long before the hunting dogs from the Yin-Yang Harmony sect would soon catch up to her. Therefore she planned to recruit Anna's help, the emperor of the southern region. Anna would find her some and help him reborn while she was on the run once again. This was why Yin Widow asked for Anna's help as a wager.
With an overpowered card like the SSS-rank legendary grade trap card Undead Graveyard at her disposal, Yin Widow was not afraid of being ambushed by a group of demigods. Still, she knew in this mysterious world nothing was overpowered. Everything had its bane. For example, the Ultimate tier Silence Rune card passed within the disciplinary hall of the Yin- Yang harmony sect.
'Six Pointed Star array formation' with Yin Window's command, the five undead and Yin Widow herself once again positioned to encircle Anna and simultaneously began to activate the SS-Rank Legend grade 'Six Pointed Star area formation.'
"No, you don't." Anna finally sobered from invincible feeling and overconfidence brought to her by the sudden influx of vast energy from her connection with the grand array formation. Being outnumbered had dug up her old memories.
If not for her requiring to gain support from her connection with grand array formation, Anna would have used the damned Arena field card as usual. Because in the damned arena, she could defeat any number of opponents with the advantage of her physique given to her by unparalleled bloodline. But this time, the opponent was of a Card demigod realm, and those that form divinity usually refine their body and physique. No matter how remarkable her Unparalleled bloodline was, it could not bridge the physical strength gap between the card Emperor and a Card demigod.
