CHAPTER 367: CHAPTER 55 FIVE ELEMENTS REFINING IMMORTAL FORMATION

Above the pristine azure mountain hollow, rolling black clouds surged forth like an incoming tide! One after another, yin-slaves clad in black Daoist robes formed a well-trained army, rapidly creating a vast array, trapping Guang Chengzi right in its center.

Columns belonging to Tongtian were spat out by the yin-slaves, one thousand in number, not one more, not one less! They stood between Heaven and Earth, as immutable as Mount Buzhou itself.

"Hahaha, Guang Chengzi! I know you are a high disciple of the Chan Sect, with countless Immortal Laws and at the realm of Quasi-Saint! However, now you are severely injured by Saint Zhunti, with your mana insufficient, I’d like to see how you will escape this ’Five Elements Refining Immortal Formation’!" Xiao Tian stood in the void, laughing wildly, and with a wave of his huge hand towards the nearly hundred million people of the Jiang Clan below, he ordered: "Kill at will, let none escape!"

Following closely behind Xiao Tian, the dense crowd of yin-slaves, hearing this command, stirred up their thick demon essence power, with bloodthirsty light shining from their eyes, they charged straight towards the human crowd below,

"Ah!"

"Everyone run, the Demon Race is attacking again!"

"Bastards, I’ll fight you!"

The yin-slaves mingled among the crowd, darting back and forth, and as each dark shadow streaked by, invariably some of the human clan would scream and perish on the spot.

"Beasts!" Caught off guard, Guang Chengzi was suddenly trapped by the yin-slaves’ great formation within the Five Elements Refining Immortal Formation. The screams of the human clan echoed in his ears, and his rage spewed forth.

His eyes bloodshot, the Yuqing True Essence within his body roiled wildly. With a light clap to his forehead, the Qingyun above his head manifested, the ancient Sky Flipping Seal floating within the Qingyun, sinking and rising.

"Sky Flipping Seal, one seal flips the sky!" Guang Chengzi roared as he fiercely smashed down the Sky Flipping Seal.

As the Sky Flipping Seal became as big as a mountain, it smashed directly onto the desolate void in front of him.

"Clang!"

The entire formation space trembled violently, rings of visible golden ripples emanated from the formation’s center, slowly washing outward in all directions.

Xiao Tian, floating in mid-air, watching these invisible ripples, flashed a hint of admiration in his eyes, and internally praised, "Worthy of being in the Quasi-Saint Realm! Even grievously injured, he still possesses such tremendous power! However, hehe! It shall end here!"

Thinking this, Xiao Tian’s hands moved rapidly, manipulating. Threads of black silk, like webs, floated towards the formation.

"Whoosh, whoosh"

As these threads entered the formation, sudden changes erupted within the formation space. Suddenly from the formation’s eastern direction, thick layers of scorching Qi of Sharp Gold spread out, morphing into magnificent three-legged Golden Crows, madly flapping their wings, sweeping towards Guang Chengzi.

"Damn it!" Guang Chengzi’s complexion slightly changed, he recalled the Sky Flipping Seal to protect himself. At the same time, his Seal Technique moved and springs of Clear Spring squeezed out from gaps in the Void, heading straight for those three-legged Golden Crows.

"Caw caw!"

The Golden Crows released scorching high temperatures all over, seemingly blind to the azure Clear Springs, and charged headlong towards them without dodging.

With a sizzling sound, the searing heat enveloping the Golden Crows instantly evaporated the Clear Springs, leaving not even a trace of mist.

Guang Chengzi’s face changed dramatically in an instant, thinking to himself, "It’s actually Sun Essence Fire, ordinary water can’t possibly extinguish these three-legged Golden Crows!"

After a moment of contemplation, as the Golden Crows were about to reach him, Guang Chengzi gritted his teeth and pulled out an aquamarine gourd from his storage space, pulling the cork off like lightning and splashing it towards the Golden Crows.

"Whoosh!"

A vast expanse of azure liquid poured from the mouth of the gourd, filled with supremely pure Power of Water.

Normally, in this formation space filled with intense flames of Sharp Gold Qi, the Power of Water would be difficult to unleash, but this stream of azure liquid forcibly cut through the heavens filled with Sun Essence Fire, opening a path dozens of yards wide. They transformed into fierce and terrifying Water Dragons, intertwining with each other, rushing towards the Golden Crows.

"Boom!"

Almost at the instant the azure liquid rushed out, the three-legged Golden Crows in front seemed to sense a certain danger. They fluttered their wings, attempting to dodge this heaven-defying torrent.

"Wasted so many of my treasures and still, you want to flee? Die!" Guang Chengzi glared fiercely at the crows, flinging the gourd forcefully, sending another huge surge of liquid following the first wave. Like the tides of the sea, they surged over.

"Caw!"

The sky full of three-legged Golden Crows only had time to let out a mournful scream before being instantly extinguished.

Right behind these three-legged Golden Crows, was a sea of flames burning with Supreme Yang, this sea of fire kept rising and tumbling with fierce Supreme Yang flames, like incessantly prancing horses, carrying an incredibly wild aura, and collided with the pale blue liquid in front.

"Boom!"

A surge of fluctuations fiercer than before suddenly burst forth, filling the entire Array space with immense pressure. The infinite power of water and fire completely tore apart the heavens above.

When the fluctuations dissipated, the sky full of fire had vanished, and while a faint aura of flames still lingered in the void of space, the Array space remained unbreakable.

"Retrieve!" Guang Chengzi painfully collected the remaining Zhan Lan liquid.

This liquid, known as Taiyin Divine Water, was acquired by Guang Chengzi after grinding Li Qingming for a whole month on Penglai Island. It was truly priceless! He would only occasionally use a few drops when making elixirs. Forced to extinguish the Three-legged Golden Crows, he had no choice but to use half a gourd of Taiyin Divine Water, causing him immense pain.

Outside the Array, Xiao Tian, surprised, looked at the Five Elements Refining Immortal Formation before him and muttered to himself, "I didn’t expect you to have some tricks! But this time, I’ll see you not die?"

Xiao Tian chuckled coldly, suddenly thumped his chest forcefully, and spat out a mouthful of deep red blood tinged with a hint of purple.

"Qiankun Borrowing Technique, Five Elements Demonic Sound!" Xiao Tian propelled this mouthful of blood into the Great Formation, then roared to the sky, his body swelling instantly.

A peerless destructive aura rose from Xiao Tian, identical to Li Qianqiu’s Devil’s Hands. His pitch-black eyes seemed like endless abysses, or gateways to another dimension, profound and indescribable, unleashing unparalleled power in a split second.

The Array space became instantly chaotic, and in the empty Void, red flames; water blue streams; bright white Sharp Gold Qi; verdant, towering giant trees; massive earthen mounds as heavy as mountains...

The Five Elements Energy exploded suddenly, turning into endless black Qi that filled the entire Great Formation.

"Buzz!"

For a time, there were ghostly wails and divine howls within the Array, and ear-piercing Demonic Sound with overwhelming momentum. Guang Chengzi, not yet fully recovered, was already unstable in spirit. Startled by the formidable Demonic Sound, his body swayed dangerously close to collapsing.

"Roar!"

The thick Demonic Sound grew more piercing, and the pitch-black Five Elements Cloud almost materialized, seeming to transform into the Five Elements Demon King, roaring with a mouth that pierced through everything.

Guang Chengzi’s gaze was scattered as he forcibly channeled the remaining Yuqing True Essence in his body into the Sky Flipping Seal, forming a small Flipping Sky World just a few meters across. Even so, he still felt dizzy and on the verge of collapse.

After all, the attack of the Five Elements Demonic Sound ignored defenses and could even pierce through the Primordial Spirit, as if countless needles were stabbing into one’s Sea of Consciousness, extremely terrifying.

Outside the Array, the world had now become a chaotic scene.

In the valley, Demon Slaves were recklessly slaughtering the people of the Jiang Clan Tribe. Limbs and bodies were everywhere, accompanied by painful wails. Rivers of still-flowing red blood turned this small valley into a blood jail.

The overwhelming stench of blood filled a hundred-mile radius, causing observers to pale and feel nauseated.

From the nearly one hundred million people of the Jiang Clan, now only one third remained, protecting Nu Deng and Lie Mountain at the center making their last stand.

Far in the Chen Capital of the Human Clan Holy City in the South Zhanbu Continent, Fu Xi was planning for the gradually recovering Human Clan tribes when he suddenly felt a throb in his heart. A painful clutch gripped his chest, as if someone had struck his chest with a hammer, the pain almost unbearable.

Bear in mind, at this point, Fu Xi was at the realm of a Daluo Golden Immortal Peak, merely needing an opportunity to step forward and ascend to the Quasi-Saint Realm. Such robust bodies of Daluo Golden Immortals should be impervious to such throbbing, so the sensation was downright alarming!

"What is happening?" In great shock, Fu Xi hastened to the side hall. Enduring the throbbing pain in his chest, he poured all his Taiqing True Essence into the Eight Diagrams Heavenly Plate on the ground.

Soon, the huge Eight Diagrams Heavenly Plate began to spin rapidly. The stars veiled in the sky released strands of silver Star Power, streaming down through the opened skylight and pouring onto Fu Xi.

As Fu Xi’s body spun along with the Eight Diagrams Heavenly Plate, it began rotating sharply and gradually began to emit a hint of purple radiance. It grew brighter and brighter until, at last, it shone like a purple moon, its light dazzling the Nine Heavens.

After how much time had passed, when the Eight Diagrams Heavenly Plate ceased spinning, the sun had set in the west.

Fu Xi stood up from the Eight Diagrams Heavenly Plate, with a pale face full of puzzlement.

"Master, what’s wrong with you?" At this moment, Luo He walked into the hall from outside. Noticing the pale-faced Fu Xi, his expression drastically changed, and he anxiously approached, inquiring.

Fu Xi waved his hand and sat back down on his throne, saying, "No harm done! It’s just that your master has overexerted himself in cultivation!"

Luo He was shocked. Fu Xi, a being of the Daluo Golden Immortal Peak realm, had actually gone through such painstaking efforts to divine something! What on earth could that matter be?

Filled with immense curiosity, Luo He hesitated, then stepped forward and asked, "May I know what has made the master exert himself so much?" (To be continued.
