Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1118: Chapter 901: Entering the Formation

Hua Tiandu looked distantly at Bai Ze, Su Yuan, and the others, and said sternly:

”Previously at Qixia Mountain, several great demon beasts disrupted Dongfang Yi’s path to kingship. Now, you demon beasts still dare to come out and vie for this dragon vein with us!”

No need for Bai Ze to speak, Luo Jin already said coldly: ”Since there is an agreement above, we naturally have the qualification to participate in the contention.

As for Nine Infants, Xiang Liu and the likes, they belong to the fierce beast lineage, and the acts they commit should not implicate us.

We from the Ten Thousand Mountains, Flower God Ridge and other places as spirit beasts have restrained the star beasts below for countless years, and have never committed any great evil!”

”Those who are not of our race will inevitably have different intentions.” Hua Tiandu sneered, glancing at those from the Beast Taming Heavenly Sect, ”Regardless of spirit beasts or fierce beasts, they are all demon beasts and will ultimately be the great enemy of us humans!”

Shi Li’s eyes narrowed slightly, aware that Hua Tiandu was also implying his Beast Taming Heavenly Sect.

Shi Li immediately said: ”Brother Hua, you are mistaken. Since modern times, cultivators and demon beasts have always coexisted in harmony, allowing the Southern Continent to maintain peace and development.”

Hua Tiandu remained unconvinced: ”In the past, that was acceptable. Now, with the beast tribulations arising, it is our human tribulation, where can we coexist peacefully with demon beasts! There will inevitably be disastrous conflicts between us and demon beasts!”

Though Hua Tiandu’s words were intense and extreme, he indeed spoke from the perspective of humans as a whole.

In contrast, what Shi Li said, although not necessarily wrong, was more from the Beast Taming Heavenly Sect’s standpoint.

Currently, if the Beast Taming Heavenly Sect could rise by leveraging tribulations, while not equal to the top sects, it might still become the first major sect under the Three Sects of Taishang Sect.

Su Yuan naturally heard their debate.

But for Su Yuan, such grand ideas were not something he needed to consider now.

How to ensure that he, his family, friends, and nation survive better during the triple tribulations was what he needed to seriously consider presently.

As for the future, whether Luo Jin, Wang Hu... even Bai Ze and Bi Fang are enemies or friends, decisions would be made then!

Just when Hua Tiandu and Shi Li were arguing, suddenly, the sound of dragons resounded.

The gathering earth qi surged into the sky, connecting heaven and earth, and a terrifying torrent of viscous star power erupted immediately.

Hua Tiandu, Nalan Ying, Shi Li, as well as Bai Ze, Luo Jin, Wang Hu... everyone’s eyes shone brightly!

”Dragon vein!”

Just being around the dragon vein, everyone felt the extreme bottleneck of the Three Suns Realm seem to loosen!

Su Yuan was seeing this scene for the second time and was not too surprised.

Nalan Ying said: ”Regardless, we must first deal with these demon beasts, otherwise if a situation like Qixia Mountain happens again, it wouldn’t be good.”

With multiple enemies present, one must form alliances to drive out opponents one by one.

With the inherent distinction between humans and demons, along with the past example of Qixia Mountain’s Dao Demon two sects, it seemed natural for several sects to unite and first deal with the demon beasts.

Indeed, Hua Tiandu and Shi Li did not say more, and their focus swiftly turned towards Bai Ze and the others.

However, Bai Ze had anticipated this. Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, he immediately took out the array plate and Water Sky Ruyi.

”Yin Yang Heavenly Water Array, activate!”

Runes on the array plate flickered, and with a spin, heavenly pond water cascaded down, verdant waves spreading for thousands of miles, filling the world with a heavenly water array instantly.

Meanwhile, Su Yuan, Bai Ze, and others’ figures were already obscured by the surging water light, making them difficult to perceive for a moment.

”Array?”

Ge Yun’s brows furrowed slightly, not expecting to really encounter an array!

Nalan Ying asked: ”Brother Ge Yun, do you recognize this array?”

Ge Yun studied the rolling waves and the continually pouring heavenly pond water from above, and slightly shook his head.

”There are too many arrays in the world. At least throughout my cultivation till now, I haven’t seen this array.

However, it seems like a defensive type of array and probably has some transformations within.”

As a Seventh Level Array Master, with just a slight observation, Ge Yun had already discerned some traits about it.

But that was all he could manage, unable to come up with a method to break the array just from watching.

The several Dao Sects originally planned to join forces to eliminate the demon beasts, but didn’t expect Bai Ze and the others, as demon beasts, to actually set up such a grand formation.

Now, attempting a forcible attack could potentially incur significant losses.

Yet, this further illustrates that the existence of these demon beasts poses a massive risk.

Hua Tiandu gazed at the array and instructed Yang Xiaodong: ”Junior Brother, go and probe this demon beast’s array.”

”Yes, Senior Brother!”

Qi Yang Chief Yang Xiaodong immediately stepped forward, flipping his hand to reveal a golden bead the size of a goose egg.

Within, fierce flames roiled, the surface brimming with circles of sun corona patterns!

Within the dark array, Su Yuan observed through the water mirror, his eyes moved slightly: ”True Sun Fire?”

The True Yang Sect had no other True Sun Fire aside from the Great Sun Divine Crow, and this was the Great Sun Treasure Pearl forged with Divine Bird Essence Blood and True Sun Fire!

It could channel Great Sun True Fire to form a Divine Bird True Spirit to attack enemies.

The chiefs of both the Sword Yang Lineage and Qi Yang Lineage possessed pseudo saint artifacts.

”Great Sun Treasure Pearl, Divine Bird Transformation, go!”

Yang Xiaodong raised his hand to activate the Great Sun Treasure Pearl, which immediately burst forth with dazzling brilliance!

”Chirp!”

Accompanied by a clear bird’s cry, a hundred-zhang-long Golden Crow Spirit flew out, scorching the ground crimson everywhere it passed, even re-burning the barren lands of Great Wilderness Ridge, heading straight for the Yin Yang Heavenly Water Array!

”Truly worthy of a pseudo saint artifact, none is simple.”

Su Yuan’s eyes focused slightly; in terms of attack power, this star device was absolutely top-notch!

In an instant, the hundred-zhang Golden Crow crashed into the range of the heavenly water array.

”Heavenly Water!”

Within the array, Bai Ze shouted, and suddenly, heavenly water that spread like a galaxy, emitting brilliant spirit light, poured down from ten thousand zhang high, striking the True Fire Divine Bird’s body.

Water and fire clashed, the golden Great Sun Divine Fire collided violently with the Heavenly Pond water, spirit light splashed, and water and fire exploded with a thunderous sound!

The two forces evaporated and annihilated each other, back and forth, falling into a stalemate for the moment.

However, the Heavenly Pond Formation could draw Star Power from the heavens and earth, whereas the Great Sun Treasure Pearl required the Star Power provided by the Imperial Envoy.

After a brief stalemate, Yang Xiaodong’s complexion subtly paled.

In terms of consumption, it definitely couldn’t compare to the Seventh Level Array that draws Star Power from heaven and earth!

Hua Tiandu saw this and turned to Xu He, saying: ”Junior Brother Xu.”

Though Xu He was slightly displeased, he moved nonetheless: ”Junior Brother Yang, let me lend you a hand!”

Xu He pinched his sword technique, and the spirit light on the sword box with five True Yang Treasure Swords behind him flickered, immediately drawing three True Yang Magic Swords into the fray!

The magic swords flashed continuously, the flame light burst forth, and the initially prevailing Heavenly Water immediately quivered.

Yang Xiaodong, as the Qi Yang Lineage’s chief of the True Yang Sect, wielding the Great Sun Treasure Pearl, was stronger than Nie Wu of the Taishang Sect and Chi Mei Zi!

Moreover, Xu He was a master who had comprehended True Form Release, his strength at the level of the Quasi-Ten Heroes, and with three True Yang Treasure Swords shattering the layers of Heavenly Pond water.

”Worthy are the two chiefs of the True Yang Sect!” The onlookers all nodded secretly.

But at this moment, within the formation, the Water Sky Ruyi spirit light flickered, and two more streams of Heavenly Pond water poured down from the sky.

Instantly repelling the three True Yang Magic Swords and causing the Divine Bird True Spirit to tremble continuously, dimming suddenly!

Xu He and Yang Xiaodong’s expressions changed slightly; this formation was indeed extraordinary.

However, under everyone’s gaze, how could they be easily repelled?

Xu He pointed at the sword box with two fingers, ready to activate the remaining two True Yang Magic Swords.

Yang Xiaodong also raised his hand, sealing, flames surged forth to enhance the Great Sun Treasure Pearl.

At this moment, the two heard Hua Tiandu’s transmitted voice.

Xu He and Yang Xiaodong’s eyes moved slightly and both paused their actions.

Hua Tiandu looked up, glancing left and right, saying: ”Nolan Ying, Shi Li, this formation is formidable, aren’t you going to just keep watching?”

The people from Five Directions Temple and Beast Taming Heavenly Sect saw the True Yang Sect duo holding back.

Even so, it was enough to make everyone understand the unusual nature of this formation, and Hua Tiandu also took the lead in attacking.

Nolan Ying laughed: ”Brother Hua, you’re joking. It’s just that the two chiefs, Xu and Yang, showed their might, and we didn’t want to intervene blindly... But since it’s come to this, let’s all make a move!”

Shi Li nodded: ”Alright.”

With bursts of roars and powerful energy fluctuations, numerous Burning Sun Level guardian beasts appeared around the Beast Taming Heavenly Sect people.

Apart from Shi Li, who did not release a beast, the most noticeable was the fierce beast Zhu Yan, wild and robust, with red fur all over, beside Song Tianduo!

The next moment, the spirit light burst!

A multitude of True Yang Magic Swords emerged, and the Five Elements Techniques of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth covered the sky!

Various attacks from guardian beasts, bizarre and varied, all struck the Heavenly Water Formation.

Numerous Heavenly Pond water lights constantly descended but struggled to withstand such a fierce onslaught, the formation was immediately broken at a corner.

Yet the next moment, within the formation, Ruyi’s light flickered, countless silk rain shot out, covering the broken corner, quickly returning to its original state.

Hua Tiandu, Nolan Ying, and others had their eyes slightly focused, and immediately ordered their followers to intensify their attack.

However, no matter how they repelled the Heavenly Water and battered the formation, once the Ruyi light flickered within, everything was restored in an instant.

This was the terrifying resilience and formidable transmutation ability of the Water Array!

Seeing the increasingly fierce assault, Ge Yun suddenly spoke up:

”No need to try breaking the formation from outside. Such a Seventh Level Array, unless crushed by King Level Star Power, it’s hard to break open without entering it!”

Upon hearing this, Hua Tiandu and others ordered their followers to stop.

Nolan Ying asked: ”Brother Ge Yun, then what do you say we should do to break the formation?”

Ge Yun replied: ”This formation is different from the Eight Golden Lock Formation set by the Taishang Sect in Qixia Mountain.

The Eight Golden Lock Formation is extremely hard, detaining the enemy outside; breaking the array gate can break the formation.

But this formation is extremely gentle, with open doors; one must enter the formation to possibly find the shortcut to break it.

No one has entered the formation yet to probe; I also don’t know how this formation can be broken.

I didn’t expect the leading demon beast to be so powerful, capable of setting such a formation; I wonder what kind of Great Demon its true form is.”

Ge Yun’s logic was simple; in short, one must first enter the formation, and after observing the formation’s changes, there might be a chance to break it.

Nolan Ying looked towards the True Yang Sect and Beast Taming Heavenly Sect:

”Brother Hua, Fellow Daoist Shi, why don’t we have each of the Three Sects send some experts to test it out, see if Brother Ge can discern anything more.”

Xu He snorted quietly: ”Hesitating and procrastinating!”

Though not loud, all the experts in the field heard it clearly.

Upon hearing this, Nolan Ying’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Hua Tiandu also spoke: ”In my opinion, let’s go inside together! A group of demon beasts, will it cost us too much time?

No matter how capable this formation is, if we join forces, are we afraid of not breaking the formation? Ridiculous!”

Ge Yun reminded: ”Brother Hua, if we all enter the formation, the opponent might expand the formation to cover the Dragon Vein.”

Hua Tiandu sneered coldly: ”We need to break the formation anyway, whether it covers the Dragon Vein or not makes no difference.

If we enter the formation together, they have only two outcomes: one is escape, the other is death!”

Shi Li folded his arms and pondered for a moment, casually opening with a laugh: ”Brother Hua is right, no need to waste time with these demon beasts, let’s defeat them and then decide on the Dragon Vein’s ownership!”

Hua Tiandu’s eyes glinted with cold light: ”Then let’s go!”

Suddenly, many cultivators around flew into the air, rushing into the Yin Yang Heavenly Water Array!
