Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 699: Chapter 559 Sect_2

“This drop of blood, undying through myriad calamities, cannot be obliterated.”

“So, it must contain the opportunity to become immortal.”

“For tens of thousands of years, no one has been able to unravel the mysteries of this drop of blood.”

“But he, Master, he figured it out…”

Gui Tao’s people’s expressions were grave, and their eyes trembled slightly.

“This drop of Blood of the Heavenly Man, undying and indelible, harbors mysteries unfathomable. Thus, the only option is to merge it into a person’s bloodstream, to incubate it…”

“And the one worthy to merge with this drop of Blood of the Heavenly Man is none other than a person of exceptional talent and Innate Taoist Bone…”

Gui Tao’s people gazed at Mr. Zhuang, speaking slowly, “That is, you, Junior Brother…”

“Master never truly saw you as a disciple, and not even as a ‘person’… ”

“In his eyes, you were just a piece in the Calculation of the Heavenly Secret, a tool, a vessel for nurturing the Blood of the Heavenly Man, a fetus to comprehend the Back Ruins Heaven Burial…”

“Do you know how to incubate Ancestral Blood?”

“Right, you know…”

Gui Tao’s people said with a mocking look, “Even if you didn’t know before, by now you should…”

“Master imparted to you the entire Sect’s inheritance, to make you a Tao Cultivation genius without equal in this world, and once your cultivation was complete, he then designed to kill you!”

“First to shatter your Qi Sea, causing you to lose cultivation;”

“Then to break your Sea of Consciousness, severely damaging your Divine Sense;”

“Ordinary people, whether it’s their Qi Sea or Sea of Consciousness, would generally perish along with their Tao after shattering, but not you, because you have Innate Taoist Bone, and you carry the Blood of the Heavenly Man.”

“Once both your Qi Sea and Sea of Consciousness are broken, the Innate Taoist Bone becomes your Sea of Consciousness and Qi Sea, sustaining your life.”

“This is ‘forcing the shoots to grow faster’…”

“By depriving the Innate Taoist Bone of support from Qi Sea and Sea of Consciousness, it rapidly absorbs the Blood of the Heavenly Man, growing excessively fast, and thus accelerating the fusion of the Taoist Bone with the Heavenly Blood.”

“Once the fusion is complete, the Blood of the Heavenly Man will be refined.”

“And on your Taoist Bone, will appear, hidden within the Blood of the Heavenly Man, the secret of the Heavenly Man! That is, the very Formation Diagram, the Back Ruins Heaven Burial Diagram!”

“At that time, to kill you…”

“To peel away your Taoist Bone…”

“And to obtain, this complete diagram, containing the ancient opportunity, the Back Ruins Heaven Burial Diagram!”

Bai Qiancheng’s face grew paler and paler.

She never imagined that her Master, who always seemed kind and affable, harbored such profound and… ruthless schemes…

Master adopted Big Senior Brother and treated him like his own child.

But it was with the calculation of “a tiger devouring its own offspring.”

And in her eyes, Senior Brother Zhuang, who was a peerless genius hailed by all, was just a “tool” being used by Master…

Gui Tao’s people looked at Mr. Zhuang, their tone somewhat sorrowful and tinged with mockery:

“You are a master of the Calculation of the Heavenly Secret, unmatched in this lifetime, yet from the beginning to the end, from birth to death, you are constantly being schemed against…”

“Those people, they respect you, they fear you, but no one cares about you.”

“Whether it is the Taoist Court or the Demon Sect, everyone just wants you dead!”

“They all want to kill you, to rip open your heart, to dismantle your Taoist Bone, to see what fortune hides within you!”

Mr. Zhuang’s face carried a hint of desolation, but even more so, resignation.

“Indeed…”

He looked at Gui Tao’s people again, as if trying to see the once gentle and affable, always smiling Big Senior Brother in that sinister face.

But he could no longer see it…

He had gradually forgotten what the Big Senior Brother used to be like.

Mr. Zhuang felt a twinge of regret and sighed softly.

Gui Tao’s people looked at Mr. Zhuang, their eyes filled with an indescribable fury and disappointment!

After saying so much, he still kept the appearance of being without desires and understanding of life and death.

The ferocious face of Gui Tao’s people, a tumult of faces, appeared and mixed together, finally merging into one and then fading away, their gaze becoming merciless and cold.

Gui Tao’s people raised the Sumeru Sword, pointing it at Mr. Zhuang.

“Big Senior Brother, stop!”

Bai Qiancheng cried out in alarm, urging him to halt.

She wanted to step forward, but was restrained by Gui Tao’s people with a counter-hand Formation Pattern.

Bai Qiancheng’s gaze sharpened, she summoned the Brocade Mountain and River Umbrella, and as it spun, brocade luminescence flowed, but these lights were dissipated one by one by the strange Formation Patterns.

Without using the power of Feather Transformation, she couldn’t break free.

Bai Qiancheng felt bitterness in her heart.

In cultivation, Divine Thought, Formation, and even calculating with Divine Sense, she was no match for the once Big Senior Brother, now Gui Tao’s people.

All she could do was watch helplessly.

As she watched Gui Tao’s people’s Sumeru Sword pierce into Senior Brother Zhuang’s chest, then slice open his heart channel, and extract a piece of his Innate Taoist Bone, seeming crystalline as jade and supporting the desiccated Sea of Consciousness and shattered Qi Sea…

Not a single drop of blood flowed out.

Because all the blood was completely disintegrated by the Sword Qi of Sumeru.

The Taoist Bone was crystal clear.

It seemed to have extremely complex, colossal, ancient, and profound Patterns, a form of innate formation merged with blood and bone, engraved on this “Innate Taoist Bone.”

This diagram, resembling a Formation Diagram.

Was indeed the coveted Back Ruins Heaven Burial Diagram, sought after by cultivators and powers from all sides!

The moment the Innate Taoist Bone was stripped away, Mr. Zhuang’s vitality began to fade rapidly.

His face turned even paler, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and his entire presence slowly became nebulous, almost void…

Bai Qiancheng felt a pain in her heart.

Gui Tao’s people also stared at Mr. Zhuang, lost in thought.

They knew this scene would eventually occur.

But it seemed they had still not anticipated that this scene would truly take place…
