Chapter 2020 Discovery, Action Taken!
To ensure absolute safety...
Dragon Tiger True Lord had already extended his divine sense perception to its limit.
It completely covered a thousand miles of airspace.
This extreme expansion of his divine sense also caused his spiritual power to be rapidly depleted.
And a faint sense of fatigue crept in.
But that's precisely why...
That's how he managed to detect this easily overlooked, hidden energy.
Unfortunately, that wisp of energy was too faint.
Despite his repeated investigations...
They were also unable to accurately identify the other party's identity at that moment.
Without further hesitation, the Dragon-Tiger True Lord focused his mind and began rapid deliberation.
Countless familiar faces of Nascent Soul cultivators appeared in his mind one after another, only to vanish as quickly as fleeting shadows.
Countless figures flashed by.
In the blink of an eye...
An elegant yet composed figure suddenly appeared in his mind, crystal clear.
"It's him!"
Dragon Tiger True Lord's heart jolted, and a look of realization and solemnity flashed in his eyes.
Immediately.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately informed Xuanpan Zhenjun, who was intently observing the formation, of his significant discovery.
Upon hearing this, True Lord Xuanpan suddenly came to his senses.
He raised an eyebrow slightly, almost subconsciously shaking his head in denial, his tone full of disbelief.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"While top-tier Daoist military formations are indeed mysterious, terrifying, and incredibly powerful, they are ultimately activated by Golden Core cultivators."
How could we possibly pose even the slightest threat to such beings?
He paused slightly,
Xuanpan Zhenjun suppressed his astonishment and solemnly explained, his tone extremely firm.
"Half-Venerable Yu Hua has already stepped out of the Nascent Soul stage and ascended to the position of Half-Venerable."
These powerful individuals had long ago fused innate qi and the earth's turbid energy into their own bodies, integrating it into their exclusive domains.
Every gesture and movement is accompanied by all laws.
Every word and action is imbued with the power of the domain.
Let alone a dozen or so Golden Core cultivators?
It was a joint attack by dozens of Nascent Soul True Monarchs...
final!
They would only be suppressed and slaughtered one by one.
“My old friend, you must have misperceived this time.”
Although Yu Hua, a half-saint, has only recently ascended to the half-saint realm and his foundation is not yet extremely solid, he is still a genuine half-saint in terms of combat strength.
Its foundation far surpasses that of an ordinary peak Nascent Soul cultivator.
How could I be trapped within a massive Daoist formation, becoming prey for others?
Upon hearing his old friend's confident rebuttal, Dragon Tiger True Lord smiled calmly, his eyes revealing a sense of certainty and composure.
You don't have to be stubborn.
If you don't believe me, you can unleash your divine sense to its limit and examine it carefully yourself.
Let's see if my perception is truly flawed.
With your formidable cultivation at the late Nascent Soul stage, you only need to use fifty percent of your divine sense to clearly perceive the truth of the matter.
Although Xuanpan Zhenjun repeatedly denied it, he knew very well that Longhu Zhenjun was a calm and cautious person who was always meticulous in his actions and never spoke falsehoods.
Naturally, they wouldn't lie or play tricks on themselves on such an important matter.
At this point in time,
Without further hesitation, his mind suddenly sank, and a vast, boundless divine thought swept out instantly, sweeping across the boundless sea of clouds and rapidly engulfing and probing the misty airspace thousands of miles away.
Wherever divine thought passes...
The clouds and mist dissipated, and the spiritual energy stirred.
Subtle ripples of spiritual energy spread throughout the world.
A short while later,
Xuanpan Zhenjun, having withdrawn his boundless divine thoughts, slightly contracted his pupils, a deep look of astonishment instantly welling up in his eyes. He was deeply shocked and murmured to himself.
"It really is the aura of a Half-Venerable Yu Hua!"
"Moreover, there are more than a dozen pure Golden Core cultivators lingering near the mist."
The layers of encirclement seemed to be restraining the aura of the half-saint.
It seems my old friend wasn't lying; he wasn't joking with me.
This scene completely exceeded his preconceived notions.
This greatly shocked him, yet it also seemed to make perfect sense due to the supreme mystery of the Dao Soldier Formation.
The Dragon Tiger True Lord, who had been paying close attention to his old friend's changing expression, naturally caught the surprise in his eyes and the shock in his heart immediately.
He chuckled softly, his tone carrying a hint of mockery and certainty:
"how?
My senses have never been wrong!
Upon hearing this, Xuanpan Zhenjun did not become arrogant or put on airs because of his slightly higher cultivation level. Instead, he was calm and composed, and apologized with a smile and a sincere attitude.
"It was I who was arbitrary and wronged you, fellow Daoist."
I hope my esteemed fellow Daoist will be magnanimous and not hold it against me.
Dragon Tiger True Lord slightly raised his head, glanced at him sideways, waved his hand, concealed the mockery in his eyes, and magnanimously let go.
"Since you sincerely admitted your mistake, I will not hold it against you this time."
After a joke,
The relaxed atmosphere instantly dissipated.
The Dragon Tiger True Lord's expression suddenly turned solemn. He looked into the deep mist in the distance and asked in a deep voice.
"Brother Dao, things have come to this point, what should we do next?"
Should we continue to observe from a distance and remain uninvolved?
Or should we intervene to break the formation and rush to the aid of Half-Venerable Yu Hua?
Upon hearing this, True Lord Xuanpan immediately suppressed his smile and fell into deep thought.
Quickly weigh the pros and cons in your mind, and carefully analyze the gains and losses.
If they choose to observe from the sidelines, they can safely escape.
Avoid the mysterious forces behind this top-tier Daoist formation and refrain from any trouble.
Even after the formation is dispelled and the battle is over...
They also have the opportunity to seize the chance to divide up the life legacy and treasured artifacts left behind by the fallen Emperor Yu Hua.
Reap the benefits of fishermen.
However, this choice also means that they will completely miss the opportunity to befriend Yu Hua Ban Zun.
In the past, during the battle to exterminate demons, the two fought alongside Yu Hua, a half-venerable, against the enemy and slayed demons together. Although they were comrades, their relationship was only superficial and shallow.
In the past, if I asked the other person for a small favor, they would probably readily agree.
However, it's simply impossible to seek opportunities for the Great Dao by leveraging such power.
more importantly……
He has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
He was just one step away from entering the realm of a half-saint and ascending to a higher level of immortality.
The key to breaking through to the Half-Saint realm lies in fusing innate fierce energy with the earth's turbid energy.
These two rare treasures of heaven and earth are the essential foundation for advancing to the semi-saint level.
Indispensable.
Such spiritual objects are supreme treasures nurtured by heaven and earth, extremely rare in the world.
They are nowhere to be found in ordinary markets or trade fairs.
Only the top-level exchange conference held once every few decades in the cultivation world has a very small chance of appearing in the mortal world.
However, the cultivator who can produce such a treasure is definitely not seeking ordinary spirit stones or rare materials; it must be a supreme spiritual object of the same level.
With his current resources, he is simply unable to exchange or demand anything.
Long afterward...
He's bound to be stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and unable to break through.
The crux of the problem lies in the inability to obtain these two core spiritual items.
Right now, the only chance to break the deadlock lies with the half-Zen Yu Hua, who is trapped in the formation.
Yu Hua, the Half-Saint, found an unparalleled opportunity in the True Dragon Sea and the Forbidden Sea, gathering all the evil and turbid energy, and thus successfully broke through the shackles and ascended to the position of Half-Saint.
Furthermore, he now possesses the [Thunder Abyss Passage Talisman], completely removing the travel restrictions to the sea realm.
They are well-positioned to seek opportunities.
At this point in time,
Xuanpan Zhenjun had already made up his mind, and his gaze became increasingly firm.
"While a half-life of inheritance is certainly tempting, it is ultimately an external thing, fleeting in an instant."
It is utterly incomparable to my long and unparalleled path to immortality.
"If I lend a helping hand this time, I could repay this life-saving debt, and if I could find out the whereabouts of the Innate罡煞 (Primordial Qi) and the Earth's Turbid Qi from Half-Venerable Yu Hua, I would have a great opportunity."
Even if it offends the mysterious force behind this Daoist army formation, it's still a huge bargain.
It's worth taking the plunge.
"Moreover, the Cultivator Association is now the most respected organization in the cultivation world, controlling its order."
The once dominant sects have all fallen and withered, never to regain their former glory.
Such clandestine forces, hiding in the shadows and concealing themselves, even if possessing considerable resources, are not to be feared at all.
"In my opinion, this force is most likely a top-tier lineage that has survived from ancient times."
It's simply because of the passage of time and the changing of the era, or perhaps because there's no Divine Transformation Venerable in the clan to oversee things.
Or perhaps their former enemies are scattered across the world, and they are in dire straits.
That's why he had no choice but to live in seclusion and hide his whereabouts.
"Now they are using Golden Core Dao Soldiers to trap and kill Half-Saints, seemingly gaining the upper hand, but in reality, there are hidden dangers both inside and outside."
Under attack from both inside and outside...
This seemingly mysterious and invincible Daoist battle formation is bound to have many flaws and will undoubtedly be broken.
At that time, we will not only be able to save the half-recluse Yu Hua,
Perhaps they could even seize the complete inheritance of this supreme Daoist army formation.
To accumulate an unparalleled foundation for oneself and future generations, ensuring lasting blessings.
The more Xuanpan Zhenjun deduced and pondered, the more he felt that this choice had clear advantages and disadvantages, and was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
This moment.
He no longer had any hesitation.
He then told his longtime friend about his entire plan.
Dragon Tiger True Lord listened quietly, neither immediately agreeing nor outright refusing.
He paused for a moment, his expression growing more serious, and asked in a deep voice.
"Since you are determined to take this gamble, I will naturally risk my life to accompany you and walk alongside you."
Brother Dao, you must tell me the truth: what are your chances of breaking through this top-tier Dao soldier formation?
If we fail to break the formation, we will not only fail to save Half-Venerable Yu Hua,
It will also completely offend the mysterious forces.
Losing everything on both ends only brings trouble.
Upon hearing this, Xuanpan Zhenjun smiled calmly, his expression composed and confident, his tone unwavering.
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I know what I'm doing."
"This military formation is incredibly agile and unpredictable, with unparalleled killing power and terrifying might."
It can overcome enemies across borders, but in essence, it is still a product of the fusion of ancient secret techniques and the Zhou Tian formation.
Dao soldiers are exceptionally strong individually, and their power is even more astonishing when they form a formation.
However, once the battle formation is complete, while its power surges, its trajectory also becomes fixed, leaving an opportunity to break the formation.
"In particular, the common problem of Taoist battle formations is that they isolate the inside from the outside."
This time, our strong external attack and harassment will greatly increase the probability of breaking through the formation.
With our combined strength at the Nascent Soul stage, while I wouldn't dare say we're 100% certain of breaking this formation, we're still 80-90% confident we can succeed without any problem.
Hearing this,
The last trace of concern in Dragon Tiger True Lord's heart completely dissipated, and without further hesitation, he immediately made a solemn decision.
"In that case, there's no time to lose. Let's act immediately and join forces to break the formation!"
"Hmm." True Monarch Xuanpan nodded slightly, his expression solemn and dignified.
"We really can't afford to delay any longer."
The destructive power of the grand formation continued to operate; with every extra breath, the danger for Half-Venerable Yu Hua increased, and there was absolutely no time to lose.
As soon as the words were spoken,
Two extremely powerful auras suddenly shot into the sky from the flying boat, causing the surrounding sea of clouds to surge and the spiritual energy to become chaotic.
Xuanpan Zhenjun and Longhu Zhenjun moved in an instant, transforming into two dazzling streaks of light that pierced through the flying boat's protective shield and tore through the sky.
call out--!
call out--!!
Two streaks of light, one blue and one gold, pierced the vast sky at incredible speed.
In the blink of an eye, it crossed a thousand miles of clouds and landed steadily above the misty array.
The two stood in mid-air, their robes fluttering in the wind, their spiritual power surging and their aura sweeping across the surroundings.
Xuanpan Zhenjun's eyes were sharp as swords as he slowly swept across the layers of gray mist below, his gaze piercing through the fog as if he were investigating something.
final!
His gaze was fixed precisely on an area where the mist swirled eerily.
"The flow and frequency of the fog in this area are completely different from those elsewhere."
Disorder and agitation
It must be one of the key points in this Taoist military formation!
Xuanpan Zhenjun was resolute in his heart.
He had already spent a long time observing and studying the operating rules of the Dao Soldier Formation, and had gained a certain understanding of the characteristics and structure of this formation.
Although he only grasped the basics and failed to touch the core mysteries of the formation, it was enough to see the extraordinary and exquisite nature of this formation.
He also knew in his heart that such a top-tier ancient Daoist military formation was profound and mysterious.
Without years of dedicated study and constant contemplation, it would be impossible to completely see through the illusions and find the flaws.
The flaw at this particular juncture is so obvious, the root cause is...
It's because these mysterious cultivators haven't had much time to control the Dao soldiers and practice the formations; their control and coordination are still immature.
They also failed to fully integrate and perfect the power of the formation.
If given enough time to refine and hone their skills, the array's trajectory will become completely stable...
This obvious flaw will then be completely hidden, leaving no trace.
This is also the biggest source of his confidence that he is 80-90% sure of breaking the formation.
The opportunity is fleeting and cannot be delayed.
Xuanpan Zhenjun and Longhu Zhenjun exchanged a glance, needing no further words; their tacit understanding, honed over many years, was evident.
next moment.
The two simultaneously channeled their magical power, preparing to break the formation.
Two incredibly powerful shockwaves then erupted.
"kill!"
A low shout reverberated through the sky.
Xuanpan Zhenjun flicked his fingertips, condensing his magical power into a single entity, and his natal magic weapon burst forth from the sky.
A dazzling divine light that stretched across the heavens and earth, carrying immense and overwhelming killing power, and with an indomitable momentum, crashed towards the node of the great formation ahead.
Dragon Tiger True Lord followed closely behind, his mind stirring slightly, and his body radiated divine light.
The Dragon-Tiger Seal that had been hovering in front of him suddenly rose into the air.
The small seal instantly magnified thousands of times.
Its entire body shone with golden light, runes flowed everywhere, and a vast and domineering pressure swept across the eight wastelands.
The earthquake caused all the surrounding clouds and mist to dissipate.
The precious seal shone brilliantly, unleashing boundless pressure.
Then,
A majestic five-clawed golden dragon phantom and a fierce white tiger phantom slowly condensed in the void.
The golden dragon soared through the sky, its roar shaking the heavens, its power and might resounding.
The white tiger roared through the air, its malevolent aura surging and shaking all directions.
The two mythical beasts, a dragon and a tiger, complement each other and move forward side by side.
Then,
The golden dragon and white tiger phantoms, following the trajectory of Xuanpan Zhenjun's natal magic weapon, fiercely pounced and attacked.
