Chapter 476: One Arrow Destroys the Immortal
Chapter 476: One Arrow Destroys the Immortal
The vast galaxy is silent.
The complex array pattern overturned the fairy platform, and the vague murderous intent made everyone frown.
It was obvious that this was a killing formation, but it was held back...
"With such a level of pressure, even a Jindan would be killed instantly!"
"How does the Hidden Killing Formation that the brothers from Shattered Star used to perform compare to this?"
"Huh... This formation... I can't tell much, but its charm is complete and its spiritual patterns are mysterious. I'm afraid its layout and killing power are even better than Hidden Kill."
……
Zhao Qingjing stood in the formation, looking up and observing casually.
Although this Immortal-Destroying Formation is extremely fierce and unpredictable, as long as you do not act rashly, you will not be killed.
The so-called trapping and killing by the formation cultivation lineage... is actually just a turtle shell.
People outside the formation cannot get in, and people inside the formation cannot get out. There is almost no chance of survival if you break in by force.
Although it is not as fierce and brutal as a pure killing formation, it excels in both offense and defense. It can defend itself or attack aggressively. Most of the time, it is more flexible and practical than ordinary formations.
Zhou Xiaoyi's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and as a cool breeze moistened her pupils... the world in her eyes also changed drastically.
The spiritual patterns disappeared without a trace.
Instead, there was spiritual energy that floated and changed like mist, like strands of silk threads woven together. If anyone touched any wrong spot, death would befall them in an instant.
Numerous silk threads crisscrossed and intertwined, mobilizing the spiritual power of this world, suppressing the spiritual perception of those in the formation, brewing a killing calamity that would destroy everything, and also guarding every weak spot in the formation.
The formations in the world are like countries with rules set by people.
Each array pattern has a unique effect——
Whether it is transmitting sound, drawing images, containing spirits, performing killing, causing hallucinations and spreading poisons, eroding consciousness, or stripping away souls... all are carried by the base of the formation and mobilized by the eye of the formation.
Therefore, the formation base is like the mountains, rivers and land in this formation kingdom, the formation patterns are the immortal cultivators busy on this land, and the formation eye... is the emperor of the immortal dynasty who rules over all the cultivators!
But now, the eye of the formation that should have been hidden from view is now visible under my aunt's Xuanji pupils.
Pure spiritual energy floated, and thousands of patterns converged. The core of the Absolute Immortal Formation was like a dazzling star, clearly visible in the dark night!
In full view.
The two men had only been in the formation for ten breaths, and had not even made any attempts, but they had already taken action.
The cold woman in black clothes slowly raised her eyes, and then... drew her bow and drew her arrow.
"What does this mean?"
"Perhaps he is testing the weak points of the array?"
"But arrowheads wrapped in spiritual energy will also bring about death!"
Whispers were heard.
Huangfu Ming secretly tensed his mind.
For some reason, he almost instinctively had a bad premonition.
call out!
Boom——
In an instant, the spiritual arrow flew out from the bow, and the intricate spiritual patterns seemed to have touched the formation, ready to explode!
Vast spiritual energy suddenly gathered, and endless murderous intent instantly poured out!
Zhao Qing held his aunt's slender waist tightly, and before the array light that could easily destroy the golden elixir approached, he took her straight to the direction of the arrowhead.
The wind whistled in my ears and the galaxy in front of me disappeared in an instant.
The Burning Heart and Shattered Jade enhanced his spiritual power, and the surging blood dyed his eyes a strange crimson.
Li and Gen overlap...volcanic journey!
The two figures disappeared like lightning, and the woman's skirt and sleeves fluttered among the stars, like a free and bold stroke of ink.
And behind the two of them...
There were terrifying light arrays that were powerful enough to destroy mountains and shatter seas, and they spread rapidly towards the two of them like an unfolding scroll.
"Oops!"
Everyone only had time to exclaim in surprise before losing all expectations.
Because... when that thousand shadows of light chase the two of them and overturn the entire formation, they will have nowhere to retreat and their chances of survival are slim!
Unless he could quickly set up a third-order defensive formation within a few breaths, using the formation within the formation to temporarily protect his own safety...
"wrong!"
"The arrow feathers—"
Just as a disciple of Shattered Star let out a low cry, the elders who were watching quietly in the depths of the ancient palace also smiled happily.
Masters of formations like them have long had the most profound intuition about the world's formations.
Under the attack of thousands of lights, the patterns of the Absolute Immortal Formation also faded away like the tide, just like the ice and snow melting when the spring breeze arrived!
Zhao Qing was seen holding the fairy in his arms, and as he quickly escaped, he actually broke out of the Absolute Immortal Formation!
And behind them, the thousand-moment formation shadows that covered the stars and the moon, and the countless calamities, also disappeared into thin air... It was as if they had never appeared on the Stargazing Platform!
For a moment, the world was silent, and not a sound was heard.
No matter whether they were monks from Yujing or independent members of the clan, they were all filled with surprise and confusion.
"The formation has been broken..."
"In this situation... the center of the formation has been extinguished..."
"Amidst the endless spiritual patterns, precisely point to the eye of the extinction formation!"
"One arrow!"
"Just one arrow!"
At this moment, there were countless geniuses and monsters in the two ancient palaces. They looked at the man walking in blood-stained clothes and his Taoist companion with horror.
What really shocked them was not the speed at which the arrow broke the formation.
Rather, it was... the serene tranquility of that aloof fairy, transcending all worlds! The unparalleled trust that the blood-stained figure had in the beauty beside him!
You know, although it is difficult to break the formation, since it is a formation, there is always a way to break it.
But breaking the formation like this——
If their arrow fails, they will surely be doomed!
Even if you are a blood-stained man, it would be difficult to retreat safely!
Zhao Qing smiled happily unconsciously, gently holding his aunt's waist, looking back at Huangfu Ming, and said with a casual smile: "Brother, there is no need to be so humble to Xiaoyi."
The current meaning is very clear. What kind of formation did you, Huangfu Ming, set up?
That's it! ?
Although Zhao Qing spoke so lightly, he was actually very nervous. In fact, when the terrifying killing was approaching, he could end up in an irreversible situation at any time.
Especially when he was flying with his aunt - it was really like a person flying in front and a soul chasing behind.
Hmm...very exciting.
The aunt's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she didn't seem so cold anymore when facing Huangfu Ming. Instead, there was a hint of gratitude and respect in her eyes.
She leaned forward and smiled softly, "Thank you, Senior Brother, for showing mercy."
Huangfu Ming:? ? ?
Although he still had a stiff smile on his face, his heart was already in turmoil. Seeing the two people in such a sarcastic manner, he was furious and his mind was unstable!
Even more——
He actually had a vague suspicion, could it be...that there really was something wrong with the formation?
How could the diagram of the Absolute Immortal Formation copied by my uncle himself be so easily destroyed by someone?
If we ignore Zhao Qing and the other two's attempts to evade the danger of being killed...
The ease with which that arrow destroyed the formation was as simple as a child bending down to pick up a copper coin!
The woman looked up and found the center of the formation, and shot an arrow to destroy it...
The child found the copper coin as soon as he went out, and quickly walked over and bent down to pick it up...
That's it!
"There is absolutely no mistake in the formation. It is her own talent in formation!"
The uncle's firm voice reached my ears.
But Huangfu Ming just didn't believe it...
What kind of talent does Zhou Xiaoyi have in formations?!
At this moment, he would rather believe that the other party was a Thousand Heart Mysterious Body that was compatible with the formation, rather than believe that Zhou Xiaoyi's attainments in formation were so high!
Even if the Jindan cultivators of the Broken Star lineage worked together to break this formation, it would be quite difficult... How could Zhou Xiaoyi's understanding of formations be better than that of a Jindan cultivator of the Broken Star lineage...
Huangfu Ming's thoughts paused for a moment, and then the smile in his eyes became even brighter.
He shook his head in shame and whispered, "I lost, I lost. There's no need to be so modest, Junior Sister."
"Such attainments in the art of formations make me, Huangfu Ming, feel ashamed of myself."
"My Huangfu clan has countless family formation manuals, but we have never seen someone with such talent."
"I wonder...would it be okay if Junior Sister could act it out for a while, and I could learn from her?"
Huangfu Ming's words were gentle, and even contained a hint of pleading.
He was very happy to see the prey. Today he had the opportunity to demonstrate formation and debate with his junior sister. Even if he lost again, he would be happy to do it.
Although Huangfu Ming is somewhat stubborn, he is not yet stupid.
Even if Jiuyaotian sealed him for another ten or twenty years, he would not believe that Zhou Xiaoyi had such extraordinary attainments in formations!
Even if there is——
Then if he loses again, it can't be considered a shameful loss of points.
Zhao Qing was also shocked when he heard this.
Let my aunt demonstrate the formation, and Huangfu Ming will break it?
Then isn’t it a free gift?
You know what...this little Huangfu is not stupid at all.
Seeing his aunt still smiling, Zhao Qing secretly sent a message while casually asking, "How is it? Do you have any energy left?"
My aunt was also secretly complaining in her heart at this moment.
This……
This……
"Of course there is."
"If you really want to learn from me, how about my sister and I team up to set up a formation?"
Her words sounded a little more cheerful, and there was a hint of teasing and amusement in her beautiful eyes.
Zhao Qing understood immediately, but felt strange in his heart.
Where did Xiaoyi get her sister from? There are only Shuyue and Qinghuan...Wouldn't this make Huangfu Ming die?
He smiled and sighed to himself, "Although the formation they formed together is ingenious, it can't be called too mysterious. Brother, would you like to enter the formation and give it a try?"
Seeing this, Huangfu Ming laughed out loud and said, "Good!"
"I am really not convinced that my junior sister broke my formation like this."
"If I, Huangfu Ming, lose again, I will humiliate myself. If I meet Fairy Ning during the Tianxiang dispute in the future, I will lead the Huangfu clan to retreat a hundred miles!"
The Nine Swords walked away on the wind and watched from the sidelines, their words sincere but also happy.
but in fact……
He is not dissatisfied.
He doesn't believe it!
Although his attainments in formations were not particularly high, he was still not inferior to the Star Shattering cultivators in formation discussions. How could he be defeated again and again on this Star-Gathering Platform?!
If Zhou Xiaoyi really had such a high level of formation...
He immediately dismissed this speculation, as he had never believed it in his heart.
Zhao Qing sighed helplessly and turned around to watch quietly.
My aunt's meaning is obvious... let Shuyue create a strong magnetic thunderstorm field for Huangfu Ming. He can enter or not, but if he does not die, he will be skinned alive.
The ancient palace is majestic.
There is a graceful figure riding a sword across the starry river, with her moon-shaped skirt fluttering and her fairy-like figure outstanding.
Shuyue's bright eyes were full of intelligence. She bowed and said with a crisp smile: "Shuyue greets Senior Brother Huangfu."
Huangfu Ming smiled and nodded, speaking gently, "I've heard of you before, but I never thought Junior Sister Shuyue would be so delicate and bright, and she can set up the formation at will."
As for Zhao Qing's wife, he had actually heard of...it was Wang Shuyue.
I thought she might be of average appearance since she came from the countryside, but now it seems that she is no less beautiful than the beauties in Zhongzhou. Instead, she has a light and graceful aura, just like an unmarried girl, which makes people feel pity for her.
Shuyue's bright eyes curved as she nodded lightly, then her eyes met with her husband's... and she went to set up the formation side by side with Xiaoyi.
"Spirit Gathering Formation, Lightning Inducing Formation, Dust Sealing Formation, these should be enough."
She secretly communicated with the two of them, expressing her needs.
With enough spiritual power to supply the thunder formation and means to conceal divine consciousness so as not to leak any clues, I don't think there will be any big problem.
You just need to slightly attract the strange energy around the thunder array to enhance the power of thunder magic.
The so-called strange force is the magnetic field.
Among the methods taught by Senior Sister Bian, there are many ways to enhance one's own thunder magic by taking advantage of the strange changes in the surrounding situation.
But there are many limitations... It is necessary to constantly try to adjust the strange momentum to prevent the power of thunder magic from being beyond control, or the spiritual power from being consumed too intensely.
But if the strange power is added to the lightning array, there will be no such concerns at all.
Anyway, you don’t need to control it yourself.
All the clever moves that enhance the thunder method are deployed in sections from high altitude, increasing the flow of thunder layer by layer...
Then, at the position near the center and base of the formation, you can use the corresponding force to guide the thunder.
Using the difference in strange potential to distort the power of thunder is the simplest thing for Shuyue...
After all, she had plenty of failed experiences in her previous attempts at thunder magic, and to set up this insidious minefield, she only needed to recreate the failed experience.
As the aunt used her spiritual consciousness to draw the array patterns, Shuyue seemed to merge into the galaxy as she danced with her sword. There was an ethereal and incomprehensible meaning on her body, as if she was one with the heaven and earth.
There are constant doubts among the ancient towers, but they seem extremely complicated.
"Is this a lightning-inducing formation?!"
"Junior Sister Shuyue is truly lively and charming, even more so than Fairy Ye, but I wonder if she's also that eccentric..."
"Although the thunder array is terrifying and unpredictable, it doesn't seem to pose much of a threat to the Nine Swordsmen, right?"
"Oh, thunder, lightning, clouds and rain are all divine strategies. Haven't you heard that heaven and earth are destroyed by thunder punishment?"
"By the way, how many Taoist companions does Zhao Xingxing have?"
"It's not unusual for Senior Brother Zhao to have so many companions, but they are all such peerless fairies, yet each one is unique... Could it be that Senior Brother is intentionally collecting beauties of all kinds?"
"In my Five Shattered Star Veins, there was once a senior with extraordinary talent who created a unique formation called Duanyun. The Duanyun formation could easily change the world and create the Endless Thunder Kingdom. To this day, no one has been able to comprehend its true meaning."
"I'd like to go to the 30th floor of the ancient palace and take a look. Fairy Ye, Fairy Ning, Fairy Jian, Fairy Gu, Fairy Zhou, Fairy Yue... How many other beauties and geniuses are gathered here!?"
"The Dao calamity obliterated the years, but the land of the Thunder Emperor is still prosperous today. Among the ninety states in the world, only the Thunder Emperor State has inherited the ancient cultivation..."
"What Zhongzhou Tianxiang City!?"
"The 30th floor of this ancient palace is the real Tianxiang City!"
"In the Purple and Blue Profound Region, where the Thunder Emperor guards the state, a book of Dao essence was written: Thunder—is the weapon of the heavens. When the heavens are angry, thunder appears... It has been quoted as the opening words of countless sects."
Huangfu Ming watched quietly, listening to the gossip between the ancient pavilions, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little shaken.
He may not believe Zhou Xiaoyi's attainments in formation.
But the mysterious aura surrounding Wang Shuyue...
The will of heaven!
It is the fourteenth sword that disappeared among the fifteen strange swords in the Ruyi Ancient Realm!
It’s in Wang Shuyue’s hands!
The Nine Swords Holy Land gathers all the relics of the Ruyi Immortal Sect, but five ancient swords are lost outside!
The sixth sword appears and disappears in an instant, containing light!
The seventh sword is hidden in the fog and wind, chasing the moon!
Thirteen swords, three feet of autumn water, cutting the clouds!
The fourteen swords are so powerful that they can break the sky!
The fifteenth sword - transform things with the mind, draw the sword to cut the sky... as you wish!
For a moment, Huangfu Ming was filled with doubt. If Tianqing was truly a sword that drew momentum, then thunder was the power of heaven...
Are they going to recreate the ancient thunder tribulation?!
At the same time, the Nine Swords disciples gathered in the hall.
Miao Jian had a dazed expression, staring at the smiling man among the stars with complicated eyes. For a moment, he felt a surge of pain and helplessness lingering in his heart.
Life is unpredictable.
That gentle and handsome man is from the 12th floor of Yujing, the one who travels the world in blood-stained clothes!
But in his mind, another figure gradually overlapped with it——
"Disciple Miao Jian, greetings to Senior Brother Zhao!"
"Brother, this is the wine I bought while strolling around Danxia City yesterday. Although it's not a high-quality product, it still tastes very mellow."
"I understand your care, brother! I will definitely keep it in mind!"
"Brother, you are also in Xifang."
"Brother, Su'er and I are getting married!"
"Brother, it's been several months since we last met, and I miss you so much."
"Brother, I came to tell you before I left the mountain. Please take care of yourself!"
"Brother, I have been promoted to the outer sect!"
"Brother, if I can settle down in Nanze, I will invite you to go to Nanze with me!"
"Senior brother——"
"The court summons us. We have to leave..."
