Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

245: Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da ZhenHoly Master Yuanyang watched the vortex channel, which was sealed by countless skeletal insects, and his expression changed drastically.

The profound light in his hand shone brightly, and the invisible power of the Law of Time dispersed, attempting to rewind time to before the vortex channel was sealed.

But it was useless. The air and the floating dust were rewound, and even the passing wind reversed.

Yet, these skeletal insects were completely unaffected, as if they existed outside of time.

Damn it! We can’t leave!

What exactly is going on? Why did it suddenly erupt?

She turned her head and looked at the Nematode, which were fighting against various monsters formed by the skeletal insects.

Further away, the gray-white cloud Qi formed by the skeletal insects descended, resembling the legendary World-Ending Flood.

If it was because of these Nematode, it shouldn’t have triggered such a massive reaction.

Below, Qin Jiang stood silently in front of the statue, yet no one noticed him.

He looked up at the sky. Behind the gray-white clouds, he vaguely saw a rotten corpse, still retaining some human shape, but the flesh on its body had already decayed.

And those skeletal insects were continuously pouring out of the corpse, seemingly endless.

He looked at the Nematode, which were battling the army of skeletal insects.

Logically, these Nematode had not reached the Saint Lord Level. After leaving that body of water, they should have died.

But this Relic Site seemed to contain strange power, preventing them from losing vitality and even granting them a slight boost, making them increasingly powerful.

“Yuegui! Yin Extreme Generates Yang!”

Holy Master Yuanyang shouted loudly. Bright yellow flames—a special manifestation of Yang Qi accumulated to its extreme—burned around him.

The temperature was unknown, high enough to incinerate all evil in the world.

Seeing this, Holy Master Yuegui raised both arms. Her figure grew taller, and her noble aura was like that of a Queen descending.

An ice-crystal-like laurel tree grew behind her, casting ice-blue radiance onto Holy Master Yuanyang.

Gradually, Holy Master Yuanyang closed his eyes. the Yang Flames on his body slowly extinguished, and a layer of ice crystals covered him.

When the last trace of Yang Flames died out, she suddenly opened her eyes. Fierce flames burned, bright yellow mixed with a hint of orange-red.

Her physique also changed, transforming from a muscular man into a tall woman draped in an orange-red robe.

Ziwei Yuanyang!

Raising one arm, an orange-red sphere of light appeared, burning with fierce orange-red flames. That was Yang Qi pushed beyond its limit, a spark of Yang Fire born from infinite Yin coldness.

“Go!”

The Yuanyang Fireball flew toward the location of the vortex channel. The intense flames seemed to be the bane of the skeletal insects, and large swathes of them were incinerated into dust.

In just the time it takes to draw a breath, the Yuanyang Fireball pushed through the descending skeletal insects, forcefully burning open a channel.

At this time, Disciples from the two great Dao Lands had already gathered outside, led by several Middle Stage True Immortals, ready to attack at any moment.

Holy Master Yuanyang and Holy Master Yuegui walked out, slowly returning to their original forms.

“There is no need to panic. Report this matter and await the Immortal Lord’s decision!”

Holy Master Yuanyang spoke. Given the sudden anomaly and the mysterious nematode monster, she could only suppress it for a short time but could not eliminate it.

“Right, the Record Keeper of the Library Pavilion should note this: the skeletal insects inside the Relic Site are unaffected by the Law of Time.”

Holy Master Yuegui, standing nearby, looked at a Middle Stage True Immortal from the Taiyin Dao Earth, “The same goes for you.”

After making the deployment, Holy Master Yuanyang looked at Holy Master Yuegui, “Lend me your Jade Pestle; I need to temporarily freeze this channel.” Holy Master Yuegui hesitated for a moment before handing her Medicine Pestle to Holy Master Yuanyang, “Hurry up, or the Master will be displeased when he arrives.”

Our Master and Immortal Lord Linglong were Prodigies of the same era. They clashed countless times when they were young and have always been at odds.

For some reason, neither of them showed up this time, instead having Holy Master Yuanyang and me guard this place.

Who among the two great Dao Lands doesn’t know that I once saved Holy Master Yuanyang’s life, and that even their Breakthrough to the Saint Lord Level occurred simultaneously after the harmonization of their Yin and Yang?

Having the two of us guard this place is truly...

“I know, stop wasting time. Quickly go set up the Twelve Hours Array on the periphery. Here is the Formation Plate.”

Holy Master Yuanyang tossed out a Formation Plate, upon which she had personally inscribed array patterns that could cover a space and slow down the Flow of Time within that patterned space for a short period.

Holy Master Yuegui moved several thousand meters away and activated the Formation Plate in her hand. Although it was a Saint Lord Level Great Formation, with the boost of her nearly Peak Saint Lord Level power, she quickly erected the Great Formation.

After the Twelve Hours Array rose, Holy Master Yuanyang also poured the fierce Yang Qi within her body into the Jade Pestle.

Instantly, Yang Qi and Yin Qi, concentrated to the extreme, surged wildly, enveloping the entire vortex channel. Under her control, the dispersed Yang Qi and Yin Qi gradually formed a Formation Pattern.

Moments later, aided by the Twelve Hours Array, the Yin-Yang Two-Phase Great Array was completed, using the Jade Pestle and a Gold-Red Jade Bead as its cores, one Yin and one Yang, achieving cyclical circulation.

This was a clever trick: it allowed the array patterns, which were not originally that strong, to be unrestrainedly enhanced until the Jade Pestle and Gold-Red Jade Bead, serving as the Formation Eyes, could no longer bear the strain and shattered.

But both treasures were Saint Lord Level Immortal Artifacts. To reach their limits, even a Saint Lord Level Great Formation would require hundreds of years.

But there was absolutely no need to worry about this; they only needed to hold out until either Immortal Lord Taiyin or Immortal Lord Linglong arrived.

Inside the Nine Luminaries Immortal King’s Relic Site, Qin Jiang couldn’t help but praise the Yin-Yang Two-Phase Great Array.

This Holy Master Yuanyang is indeed very capable. He had seen records of this Yin-Yang Two-Phase Great Array; ordinary Grandmaster Saint-levels cannot set it up.

Not only are the requirements for the Formation Eye extremely demanding—they must be items with near-extreme Yin and Yang attributes.

Besides this, the requirements for the array setter are also extremely high, demanding profound mastery of the Law of Yin and Yang.

This is usually only achievable by Veteran Sect Saints who have immersed themselves in the Grandmaster Saint-level Realm for tens of thousands of years.

Holy Master Yuanyang also benefited from this point, as she is inherently an extreme Yang Qi possessor, and having comprehended Yang Extreme Generates Yin and Yin Extreme Generates Yang, her understanding of the Dao of Yin and Yang is arguably the greatest in the current era.

Withdrawing his gaze and no longer focusing on the outside world, Qin Jiang looked at the statue behind him and rose into the air.

Landing on the statue’s palm, a half-meter-tall stone platform stood there. In the center of the platform was a groove containing a Deep-Blue Jade Bead.

The inside of the jade bead flickered with light, as if containing the stars of the entire sky.

The legendary nine luminaries star nucleus, a rare treasure capable of helping an Immortal Lord condense the Immortal King Body.

However, Qin Jiang could tell that this was merely a Phantom Image; the true nine luminaries star nucleus had already been taken.

Casually sitting on the stone platform, he looked at the statue’s other hand, which held a Stone Disk, or rather, a Formation Plate.

Complex Patterns were inscribed on it, enough to make even a Middle Stage True Immortal feel dizzy just by looking at them.

This was because the amount of information contained within was too great, practically having inscribed the trajectories of all the stars in the sky.

Legend has it that besides having Martial Dao Cultivation that reached the pinnacle of creation, the Nine Luminaries Immortal King was also a rare Array Dao Heavenly Sovereign from ancient times.

It is said that with the boost of the Array Dao, the Nine Luminaries Immortal King’s Immortal Light could illuminate the entire Star Sea and manipulate the trajectories of the stars.

Such a description is rare, even among Immortal Kings.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the Formation inscribed on this Formation Plate should be a simplified version of the Nine Luminaries Immortal King’s masterpiece, the Great Array of the Primordial Stars.
