Chapter 1263: Breaking the Formation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhao Yu spoke very quickly, almost as though he did it without thinking. He was clearly afraid of the black fog. Even as he spoke, he kept glancing back warily.
Lu Wu sat at the back, staring in the direction where the black fog had appeared earlier. When the black fog was no longer in sight, it placed a huge paw in front of Zhao Yu, blocking his path.
Zhao Yu. “…”
The atmosphere turned awkward immediately.
Zhao Yu put his hands together and pleaded, “Let’s talk things out. Don’t act rashly.”
No one doubted Lu Wu’s strength.
Lu Wu lowered its head and said, “Young people nowadays are really bad at keeping their words. After breaking your promise, you want to leave?”
Zhao Yu felt incredibly embarrassed. He forced a smile on his face as he looked for movements from the corners of his eyes. He placed one hand on the belt on his waist and said, “It’s just a misunderstanding.”
Lu Zhou said, “If you want to leave, tell me everything you know.”
Zhao Yu asked, “You mean Tian Wu?”
Whoosh!
Mingshi Yin wielded the Separation Hook and imitated Duanmu Sheng’s actions. He sighed as he wiped the hook with his sleeve. His eyes that were reflected on the hook glinted coldly as he said, “Master, look at him feigning ignorance. How about I kill him with just a strike?”
Zhao Yu sighed before he said, “It’s useless even if you kill me. Tian Wu is a famous divine beast. According to the ancient books, the people from the Valley of the Rising Sun called Tian Wu Shui Bo. Apparently, it’s a human with eight heads, eight legs, and eight tails. It’s green and yellow in colors.”
“Human?”
How could humans be described as having eight heads, eight legs, and eight tails?
“That’s what was said in the books. I’ve never seen it before. I only heard the elders referring to it as human despite clearly being a fierce beast,” Zhao Yu explained.
“A hybrid?” Mingshi Yin cocked an eyebrow.
Zhao Yu was confused by Mingshi Yin’s hostility toward him. Nevertheless, he replied, “Who knows? What’s important is that Tian Wu is a true divine beast from ancient times. Later on, it became enemies with the Great Desolate Land’s Lord Zhennan. It’s said that the two fought for tens of thousands of years. Some people said that Lord Zhennan won, and Tian Wu died; there are also those who said that Tian Wu won, and Lord Zhennan died.”
“Then, how did you know the black fog was Tian Wu?” Mingshi Yin asked.
“I saw a flash of eight tails…” Zhao Yu said. His left hand was still holding on firmly to the belt on his waist.
The lush forest and the lingering darkness made the atmosphere even more gloomy at this moment.
“What do you know about the situation at the Pillar of Destruction?” Lu Zhou asked.
“I know a little. I read about it in the royal library. It’s said that there are multiple formations guarding the pillar. I’ve read about the ways to undo the formations, but… it’s impossible now…” Zhao Yu said. He pointed in the direction where the black fog had appeared earlier and continued to say, “If it’s really the divine beast, Tian Wu, there’s nothing we can do. It’s not something we can deal with…”
Everyone fell silent. They had all witnessed with their eyes the strength of the divine beast, the Fire Phoenix. A single move instantly demoted Qin Renyue’s 49 Swordsmen and Ye Zheng’s 36 disciples. With Tian Wu in Yu Zhong, it was indeed difficult for them to get close to the Pillar of Destruction.
Lu Zhou was lost in his thoughts as he looked ahead. Indeed, this was rather troublesome. The biggest problem was they knew nothing about Tian Wu. With the unknown, there were many uncertainties and things that could go wrong.
Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi barked in the direction of the forest.
“Doggy, be good!” Mingshi Yin patted Qiong Qi’s head.
Qiong Qi crouched and lowered its head before it bared its fangs. Its eyes shone with a terrifying light as it growled. It was clearly in an offensive posture.
Mingshi Yin looked at the forest.
Zhao Yu looked at Qiong Qi. “Is that Qiong Qi?”
Mingshi Yin turned back and rolled his eyes at Zhao Yu. His tone was not very friendly as he said, “Oh, it seems like you’re slightly knowledgeable.”
Zhao Yu did not take offense. He only said, “Qiong Qi is fierce and tenacious. It…” He paused briefly before continuing to say, “It likes eating evil things. The more it eats, the stronger it gets…”
Mingshi Yin did not say anything. He patted Qiong Qi’s head, trying to calm it down.
Qiong Qi continued to growl as though it could see something the others could not see.
Lu Zhou rose into the air and brought the Golden Taixu Mirror out. The divine power, which was now golden thanks to the Concealment Card, complemented the light from the Golden Taixu Mirror as it shone down like the sun. In the dark Unknown Land, the light was even more dazzling.
Under the light from the Golden Taixu Mirror, they saw a wave of energy that resembled waves of water swaying in the wind in the sky about 100 meters ahead. Apart from that, under the largest ancient tree, a red light could be seen.
“It’s a formation. The red light should be the fire lotus,” Kong Wen said.
Lu Zhou put the Golden Taixu Mirror away and continued surveying the surroundings in the air.
Zhao Yu said sheepishly, “I thought it was Tian Wu. As it turns out, it’s a formation…”
Lu Li said, “It should be some kind of illusory formation…”
Then, Lu Li brought out a few talismans and tossed them into the air. After they landed on the ground, circles of light began to light up on the ground. He frowned and said, “Multiple Eye Formation.”
“Stay here,” Lu Zhou said before rushing forward. When he was in the air, it felt as though he was submerged in the ocean. Fortunately, he had the Purple Glaze Ceramic and his underwater ability. With that, the suffocating sensation soon faded.
Lu Zhou raised his hand and brought Unnamed in the form of a bow out.
Buzz!
A 300-feet-long energy arrow was nocked on the bow.
Everyone looked up in surprise.
The darkness was now the backdrop for Lu Zhou and Unnamed.
Lu Zhou pulled the bowstring back and turned slightly before he released the arrow.
The huge arrow spun as it shot out.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The energy arrow shot through the illusory body of water in the air and hit all the eyes of the formation.
The eyes that resembled opened eyes in the darkness closed one after another after being pierced by the arrow.
The original silent place suddenly turned noisy. The Primal Qi in the area surged out.
Lu Zhou’s excellent hearing allowed him to hear the angry roars in the midst of the surging Primal Qi. He could imagine fierce beasts baring their fangs and brandishing their claws as they roared. However, as the Primal Qi calmed down, the noises vanished as well.
When everything returned to normal again, everyone was shocked by what they saw.
The ground ahead was littered with corpses and bones of both humans and fierce beasts.
“The formation is broken?” Zhao Yu asked in disbelief.
Lu Li said, “Pavilion Master is truly skilled. The only one who could break this formation today is you. The eyes of the formation have to be hit precisely at the right time.”
When Zhao Yu regained his senses, he saw Qiong Qi charging toward the tall ancient tree.
Qiong Qi leaped up and bit the biggest vine as soon as it arrived.
Crack!
Mingshi Yin was shocked. It had never seen Qiong Qi so aggressive before.
Qiong Qi bit the vine and pulled it back before mauling it.
Shockingly, the vine began to bleed.
“Ignorant creature… and delicious human… die!”
The ancient tree suddenly opened its eyes. Then, vines began to shoot toward Mingshi Yin and Qiong Qi.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Qiong Qi’s fur stood on end as it leaped up and bit two vines.
Mingshi Yin brought his Separation Hook out and began to hack into the vines.
“Help! Don’t get too close. You might be killed in just an instant!”
Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, Yan Zhenluo, and Lu Li quickly supported Mingshi Yin and Qiong Qi from a distance.
Countless energy sabers and energy swords shot toward the vines.
Kong Wen clapped his hands, sending energy seals toward the living ancient tree.
“A living tree? I’ve lived so long, but I have a hard time believing this!”
“That… That isn’t a tree. That’s the Great Desolate Land’s Lord Zhennan.”
“Lord Zhennan?”
“Tian Wu’s sworn enemy. Remember what I said before? Tian Wu and Lord Zhennan fought for 10,000 years before vanishing. No one knew what happened. Since Lord Zhennan is here, Tian Wu should be nearby…” Zhao Yu said nervously as he began to retreat.
“What?! So is Lord Zhennan a human, a ghost, or a tree?”
“I don’t know. I’ll explain it later. In any case, he’s no longer human!”
Black fog rose from the ground at this moment as the vines began to burn with strange flames.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The numerous vines repelled the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion in just an instant. Fortunately, they were quite a distance away. Otherwise, they would have suffered a great loss.
Even Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong had no choice but to dodge in the air.
Boom!
At this moment, Lu Wu finally made a move.
