Breaking the Formation Together
“Alright, you have some backbone in you, you’ve truly opened my eyes, puny Profound Wind Sect. Hmph, let’s see what gives you the confidence. I, Xuanyuan Wuqiong, can easily destroy your sect with a snap of a finger.” Xuanyuan Wuqiong harrumphed,his killing intent was released.
Xuan Qingming’s palms were sweating. That guy had already planned to massacre everyone even before reaching the sect.
“Old man Xuanyuan, looks like we’ll have to move some muscles today. Looks like someone is not giving us our due respect, a mere defensive formation… is it that great? You dare go against a Reverend, hilarious!! Hahaha!” Li Zheyan laughed while shaking his head, emitting a powerful aura.
“Everyone, move towards the inner sect. Do not come out from there no matter what!” Xuan Qingming shouted. He knew that these three fellas were really serious.
Although Jiang Zhenhai lost his sight and mobility, he still has his hearing. Now that Jiang Chen has left them, he felt that he has brought trouble for the sect, he felt guilty and bad about it.
“Ruyue, take me out if the situation gets worse, I, Jiang Zhenhai, do not want to bring harm to the Profound Wind Sect.” Jiang Zhenhai said as the clamors outside were certainly over the sect’s capabilities.
“Brother Zhen, stop thinking about those nonsense. Do you think they’ll stop if the Sect Lord handed you over? They’ll still face troubles and we would lose our lives. Now, we can only pray for Jiang Chen to come back quickly so that we’ll be saved. I will accompany you even in death. So, stop saying all those things, I will never forgive you if you do it.” Lin Ruyue hugged Jiang Zhenhai tightly and said quietly.
Jiang Zhenhai sighed. There was nothing he could do other than praying that Jiang Chen would return quickly.
“I refuse to believe that this formation can stop me.” Xuanyuan Wuqiong said proudly as he released a devastating energy, causing Xuan Qingming to back off.
He couldn’t even face a Divine King, lest a Half-Step Hierarch. Jiang Chen had truly succeeded as a person, he would certainly become one of the great figures that would be revered by others in the world if he could get through this.
“Azure Dragon Rising!”
Xuanyuan Wuqiong threw out a terrifying punch. A giant palm strike raged upon the sect. However, only a water ripple could be seen waving across the formation and nothing happened. Just like a pebble being thrown into a lake, vanishing without a trace.
“This… is terrifying.”
Xuan Qingming was shocked by the power of Xuanyuan Wuqiong, and Jiang Chen’s capabilities as he was able to set up such a powerful formation with just a Half-Step Divine King Cultivation Realm. Not even a Half-Step Hierarch was able to break it through!
Xuan Qingming asked himself if he could have done it so perfectly even if he had 500 years to prepare, probably not.
“Not bad! Looks like he’s pretty capable, such a powerful defensive formation. It’s my first time seeing it, not even my Clear Stream Sect’s formation was this powerful.” Xuanyuan Wuqiong said with a laugh.
However, he was genuinely angry. Dan Yingqing and Li Zheyan were pretty shocked too. A puny Jiang Chen that wasn’t even a Divine King was able to set up such a powerful defensive formation. He, alone, was able to destroy the experts of the top ten sects, and massacred the whole Clear Stream Sect. They were pretty doubtful, but they finally believed that Jiang Chen had some true abilities.
Xuan Qingming breathed out a long sigh of relief, but his expression was still heavy. It managed to stop the first strike, however the three Half-Step Hierarchs were still as powerful as ever.
“I wonder if the formation could take what is to come.” Xuan Qingming thought.
Since, Jiang Chen said it could withstand a Hierarch, then, it’s probably not too shabby.
“Now my hands are itchy, is that formation that strong?” Dan Yingqing said with a smile as he flew up towards the sky.
They chose to go into seclusion because their time was almost up. They could perhaps fight for another few thousands of years if they could break through to the Hierarch Realm right before their death. Jiang Chen had caused too great of a commotion, causing everyone to fear for their lives in Linhe Boundary, they acted because they have been pushed to the edge, they will certainly die in the next hundred years no matter if they win or lose.
Dan Yingqing formed a seal with both hands. Golden light emerged from his palms and a seal formed as he launched his technique from the sky.
“Starlight Burst! Break it!”
Dan Yingqing launched a powerful technique but the result was still the same as Xuanyuan Wuqiong. The effect was not as he expected, it was silent, that defensive formation just rippled a little.
At this moment, Dan Yingqing’s expression was not pretty good. Li Zheyan’s the only one that was still calm right now. He did not want to waste his energy as Xuanyuan Wuqiong and Dan Yingqing failed. It was evident that the formation was strong, there’s no need for them to waste any more useless effort. The three of them would have to combine their attacks to destroy this formation in a single go.
“Fellow comrades, let’s have a discussion, we need to combine our strength. This defensive formation is definitely out of our expectation. Hehe.” Li Zheyan said with a smile.
The other two silently nodded. Although they did not want to admit it, the fact was evident, the formation could not be broken if they do not join their hands together.
“Alright!”
The trio looked at each other and simultaneously released a powerful qi.
