Chapter 1218 - Chapter 1218 Chapter 511 Entering the Formation

Chapter 1218: Chapter 511: Entering the Formation Chapter 1218: Chapter 511: Entering the Formation Tang Luo, enhanced by the void energy, broke into the Nine Heavens with astonishing speed. The very first second he merged back with the heavenly and earthly Qi, he found the energy surrounding his body clashing with it.

The scattered, wild winds, as if finding some detestable target, slashed towards him like rain; his vision of using this energy as an enhancement in Xiehe fell apart instantly.

The Void Dual Wheels turned reluctantly, and Tang Luo expelled the gathered void energy through the Breath Arrow. The black and purple energy was dissolved under the massive onslaught of the primary Qi.

Damn, I thought I had reached another peak in life.

Realizing that void energy was incompatible with the spiritual power world, Tang Luo smirked, tightening his grip on the woman’s neck and knocking out the prisoner who was about to regain consciousness once more.

The absence of thirty-six Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads greatly impacted the combat power of Devil Lord Gouchen. However, there was no helping it, as the ancient art of forging the Imperial Magnetic Clans was limited. The Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads could only withstand two changes in enhanced spiritual force. Once it exceeded this level, they would completely disintegrate.

And without the Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads, Gouchen’s strength was roughly reduced by about thirty percent. In the battles of the highest standards in Fierce Realm, such a reduction was almost fatal.

“I really should have prepared ten or eight sets to store in the Void Stomach. With my current control, I should be able to manipulate more Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads. I need to find an opportunity to test my new limits,” he pondered.

After setting a new minor goal in his heart, Tang Luo concealed his presence and sped towards the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array in South City. With such an important hostage now at his disposal, he believed the masters of the Xiang Family would make a wise decision.

…

Inside the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array

Xiang Zhuang was in big trouble, or rather, he had met a formidable opponent.

Even though one could never overestimate the importance of an ancient sect like the Palace of Striking Swan, he still admired Du Sha’s cultivation deeply.

Even wielding the Ah Contain Heart Piercing Awl, he could not completely dominate.

Despite his cultivation and artifact being superior, he just couldn’t inflict decisive damage on his opponent. Du Sha’s tenacity was like nothing Xiang Zhuang had ever seen in his life.

After another round of ineffective Spirit Art, this renowned fighter of many decades knew that he could not defeat Du Sha on his own and thus ordered solemnly, “Prepare for a combined attack.”

Single combat was romantic, but such romance was predicated on having more options–knowing he couldn’t win, Xiang Zhuang certainly wouldn’t insist on strength alone.

As powerful spiritual power brewed within the formation, Xiang Zhuang’s attacks became more fierce. Yet, Du Sha showed no signs of panic. Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a colossal creature, with its body joined to its head resembling a giant kun, rose from the mud. Twisting in mid-air, it covered the sky, casting such a shadow that it turned daylight into night over the street.

Remaining unperturbed even as “mountains crumbled before him” showed a state of mind independent of cultivation level. Yet faced with this apocalyptic scene, ninety percent of Xiang Family’s elite warriors couldn’t keep their composure to execute the combined attack.

Only the few Martial Ancestors brought by Xiang Zhuang were exceptional. Together, they conjured the Cloud Flow White Tiger–a majestic western mythical beast that faced the massive stone kun without fear. Within its cloudy body, the lights of the seven stars surged. As the White Tiger roared, a multicolored beam infused with mysterious divine force powerfully shattered the sky-covering stone kun.

Three Martial Ancestors combined their power to execute the White Tiger Roar, the potency of which already surpassed the limit of doubled-phase transformed Spiritual Power. Although the stone kun was astonishingly huge, it was, after all, just a spiritless stone casting, and how could it withstand?

Unexpectedly, the shattered stone turned into stone stalactite spikes in the sky, raining down towards the newly regrouped Xiang Family’s formation.

The force of these stalactite spikes plummeting from great heights was alarming; they penetrated the ground by a meter. Even though Xiang Zhuang had brought only the elite among those transcending the mundane, it took them considerable effort to handle, not something to be dismissed offhandedly.

While transcending the mundane was difficult to obstruct and the Fierce Realm tough to deal with, not to mention figures at the Martial Ancestor Level, Du Sha already found it a struggle to cope with just Xiang Zhuang, let alone facing four with the addition of three more Martial Ancestors to the battle formation.

With the support of the three fresh forces, it only took a few moments for Du Sha to be pierced multiple times by the Ah Contain Heart Piercing Awl in his vital body, causing extensive cracks in his crystalline armor.

Just then, the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array wavered, causing Xiang Zhuang great alarm.

This array, set up at great cost by the Xiang Family through the services of Master Shaolin to protect their clan, was designed to keep the Xiang Family defensively arrayed in dire situations. To disturb such an array required at least several attacks that inflict spiritual wounds surpassing three-phase transformations. To break it completely, barring continuous attacks by a hundred Fierce Realm squads day and night, would be close to impossible.

The sudden shaking of the array made Xiang Zhuang think the outside world had changed drastically. Concerned, his grip inevitably weakened a bit, allowing Du Sha to seize the moment and burst out enveloped in black smoke, with the three Martial Ancestors swiftly following behind.

They had escaped momentarily, but for how long could they run? Xiang Zhuang frowned deeply, inwardly musing, “Really must press Zi Liang on what exactly has happened outside the array!”

With pressing matters at hand, for a wounded and fleeing enemy, Xiang Zhuang was not eager to capture him but instead turned to a captain, saying, “Take me to the Formation Eye.”

The reason the array was shaking was naturally because the Devil Lord Hook Chen was breaking the formation.

If one were to use brute force to bombard it, indeed, as Xiang Zhuang said, it would require three or four consecutive focused attacks to even tear a small hole.

However, if one could observe where the Spiritual Power flowed weakest, pinpointing and tearing through to create an opening just wide enough for one person, it was certainly not a problem. When Tang Luo first saw this Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array, he had already discerned that this strong array was powerful because it subtly aligned with the path of Taiyin.

Taiyin here refers to the moon, governing the tides of heaven and earth, mainly through its clarity and defensive nature.

This Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array likewise summoned the power of Taiyin through the array formation, retaining this power with a deep blue curtain that prevented its escape. This method of borrowing stellar powers was exceedingly ingenious; an array with a third of the force could exert seven or eight parts of its potential power.

Possessing eyes that could see Spiritual Power allowed Tang Luo to unobstructedly find the weakest part of the array. When the array’s Spiritual Power was at its faintest, Blood Fiend with a frightening finger pointed, melted open a passage wide enough for one person.

A few moments later, the Spirit Redirected, sealing the hole again without causing much disturbance.

The tremors that Xiang Zhuang felt were due to Hook Chen penetrating the center of the array, following the traces of Spiritual Power to locate a Formation Eye. He first killed a group of array masters providing essential energy to the array, then destroyed the Formation Eye, causing severe shaking of the array.

Following the traces of Spiritual Power, Tang Luo then led the captives to destroy the second buried Formation Eye under the ground, causing the grand array enveloping South City to shake violently once more.
