Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 683: Chapter 554 Start Killing_2

Xuan Sanren, who was proficient in arrays, and Poison Venerable, who had a slight understanding of arrays, both looked at the Black Bear Demon Cultivator with disdain.

“This is a Second Grade Large Formation…”

Xuan Sanren said impatiently, “A Large Formation is fundamentally different from ordinary formations. Moreover, this is the Five Elements Mountain Guarding Formation, originating from the forebears of the Five Elements Sect…”

“What’s more important is that, at this moment, the person presiding over the formation is surnamed Zhuang!”

With a solemn expression, Xuan Sanren continued, “In the entire Cultivation World, there are few who have the confidence to break his formations in his presence…”

Black Arhat was stunned; as a demon cultivator, he usually only cared about “killing” and “eating,” understanding nothing about arrays, but at that moment, ridiculed by Xuan Sanren, he didn’t want to lose face and thus spoke in a cold voice,

“No matter how powerful, it is still just Second Grade…”

Poison Venerable laughed out loud, his voice harsh, like a night owl.

He pointed at the sky, “This is a Third-Grade State Boundary. The limits of Heavenly Dao are strict. Even if it’s a Golden Core, a Second Grade Large Formation is indestructible. A Golden Core Cultivator alone would find it hard to break through unless…”

Looking at Black Arhat with a mocking tone, Poison Venerable said, “You’re willing to trade one for one with the formation, using the power of Feather Transformation to break the formation and then be annihilated by the Heavenly Dao.”

“To sacrifice oneself for the Dao, to show loyalty to the Demon Monarch, would also be a death well met…”

Black Arhat’s face darkened further, and he snorted coldly without speaking.

He was not a fool to risk his life for a Second Grade Large Formation.

But he still had doubts, frowning as he spoke,

“The thing about being annihilated by Heavenly Dao, is it true or false?”

Clearly skeptical, Black Arhat queried, “If I use the Cultivation of the Feather Transformation Realm, will there really be a Heavenly Dao to annihilate me?”

Poison Venerable looked at him with disdain and suggested, “Why don’t you try and see?”

Anger surged in Black Arhat.

Xuan Sanren merely sneered coldly.

On the contrary, Madam Miao frowned, “Annihilation by Heavenly Dao has only been seen in Taoist records and spoken of by cultivators. I’ve never heard of anyone experiencing it personally…”

Xuan Sanren responded somewhat speechlessly, “Is there a possibility that those who have experienced it in person have all been annihilated…”

Below them, Mo Hua slightly shook his head.

“Not all…”

“I wasn’t annihilated!”

It was just that, in his case, it was a twist of fate. The Great Formation Dissolution had triggered the restrictions of Heavenly Dao, but with his low Cultivation, the tribulation thunder merely “hesitated” for a moment, not truly attempting to kill him, thus leaving him with his “little life”…

Mo Hua reflected in his heart:

Annihilation by Heavenly Dao has always been taboo.

Most cultivators follow this rule, but might not truly understand the terrifying nature of it.

Just like the foolish Black Arhat and the delicate-looking Madam Miao, who after hearing Xuan Sanren’s words, were still somewhat dubious.

It seemed they did not truly believe in the existence of the so-called Heavenly Dao…

However, they didn’t seem to dwell on this matter.

After a moment, they went back to the matter at hand, discussing the affairs of the Taoist Court…

“What about the cultivators of the Taoist Court?” Xuan Sanren asked.

“What else can be done?” Black Arhat scoffed coldly, “The Demon Sect’s actions have always been straightforward, it’s all about one word: ‘kill’!”

Xuan Sanren’s gaze grew colder, “What I meant was, how exactly do we kill?”

After pondering for a moment, Poison Venerable said, “Let them into the Soul Refining Banner, seal the Heavenly secret, set up the Blood Sha Great Formation, open the Demon Sword Evil Eye, and then we can all join forces, wiping them out completely!”

“Aren’t they too stupid to do that?”

“Stupid or not depends on whether the stake is high enough.”

“As long as the benefit is large enough, even the shrewdest of people will be foolish.”

“With Mr. Zhuang inside the Large Formation, as long as you dare to unfurl the banner, they will inevitably dare to rush in at all costs.”

“Compared to the chance for immortality, what’s a few people’s death… it’s nothing.”

…

“What about the Feathered Immortals of the Taoist Court?” Xuan Sanren pursued.

Poison Venerable replied, “Due to the limits of Heavenly Dao, the Feathered Immortals from the Taoist Court, like you and me, dare not use their full power. Thus, the main force of this battle will still be the Golden Cores…”

“Feathered Immortals, who don’t use the power of Feather Transformation, are only a bit stronger than Golden Cores…”

His eyes swept across the room, and a cold smile emerged on his lips, “This Demon Palace is gathered with hundreds of Golden Core Demon Cultivators, practicing orthodox demon skills, refining top-notch evil techniques. With Evil Treasures in hand, they all have blood on their hands, killing like it’s nothing. They are far from comparable to those pampered cultivators from the Taoist Court who live in high positions of comfort.”

“Golden Core Demon Cultivators, formed into Demon Soldiers, will surely wreak havoc in all directions! Making the Taoist Court greatly weakened!”

“We will surely, for the Demon Monarch, seize that transcendent fate buried in the Back Ruins!”

All four Feather Transformation Demon Heads had fanatical looks in their eyes.

But within those gazes, personal greed began to surge.

“When will the Five Elements Mountain Guarding Formation be broken?” Poison Venerable asked.

Xuan Sanren shook his head, “It can’t be broken, we can only wear it down.”

“Wear down?”

Xuan Sanren nodded affirmatively, “Yes, that man’s mastery of array is exceptional. With him at the helm of the Five Elements Mountain Guarding Formation, it can’t be broken. We can only think of ways to exhaust it…”

“Deplete the Spirit Stones, wear away his life force.”

“His oil spent and his lamp extinguished, his days numbered, keep wearing him down, and the Five Elements Formation will inevitably falter…”

“Once the Large Formation is broken, with demons surrounding the mountain, no matter how extraordinary and unrivaled he may be, he will ultimately fall into our hands.”

Poison Venerable nodded slightly.

“That’s indeed an approach…”

Everyone fell silent for a moment, when the Black Arhat mockingly said, “That being said, this man really is abandoned by all; the Demon Sect wants to kill him, and the Taoist Court won’t let him off either…”

“It seems that in this world, not a single person wants to save him.”

Poison Venerable sneered, “He was too prominent back in the day, offended too many people, and now bears such great fortune that everyone is envious. Now that he’s cornered, who would think of saving him?”
