Chapter 2403: Volume 11: The True Immortal Descends to the World, Chapter 2385: Heaven and Earth Arrays
Time passed bit by bit. Aside from the hot wind rolling through the desert, there was still no abnormality in the surrounding sky.
"Why haven't they arrived yet? Could that brat have gotten cold feet and slipped away halfway? To avoid being discovered by that fierce demon, we didn't send anyone else to secretly monitor those two." A large man covered in red hair in the light array finally couldn't hold back his impatience and sent a voice transmission to a chubby old man beside him.
"Rest assured, Brother Che Qi. Since we have set this trap, we naturally have full confidence. Although I don't know why that fierce demon has been chasing those two for so long, previous investigations show that the fierce demon has shown no intention of letting go. As long as that mortal named Liu Yi is slightly clever, luring the fierce demon here will be no problem at all," the chubby old man replied with a gentle smile via voice transmission.
"Hearing you say that, I feel relieved. Come to think of it, is that fierce demon really that powerful? This time, in addition to the twelve of us Great Ascension cultivators, we have set up the Heaven and Earth Polar Arrays and even used the Blood Bone Sect's sect-protecting treasure, the Yellow Wind Map. If that's the case, we could just refine him alive with this treasure and the Heaven and Earth Arrays; why do we need to take action ourselves?" The red-haired man nodded and asked with some curiosity.
"I'm not too sure about that either. But since those in charge are so solemn, there must be a reason. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that this fierce demon could kill three Great Ascension fellow Daoists single-handedly and dare to recklessly sacrifice hundreds of millions of lives on the continent, he is worthy of such treatment," the chubby old man said after a moment of contemplation.
"I'm also curious about his background and where he popped out from. Could it be that he has been hiding and cultivating in some place, or is he a powerhouse who descended from another realm?" The red-haired man asked again after some thought.
"There's no need to think too much about that. Regardless of his background, since he has committed such heaven-defying and people-resenting acts, our major sects must not let him live in this world. Otherwise, where would our sects' faces be, and how could we stand in Xue Tian?" The chubby old man chuckled after stroking his somewhat fat chin.
"That's true. But I heard that Bi Ying of the Helian Merchant Alliance, Lady Ling Yun of the Ten Thousand Gu Mountain, and Mr. He of the Falling Heaven Valley have also been invited to observe this battle to exterminate the demon. If the three of them were willing to take action, that fierce demon would definitely have no chance of survival." The red-haired man blinked and suddenly sighed.
"Heh heh, with the status of those three, how could they possibly join forces to fight an enemy? Besides, with us here, there's no chance for them to take action," the chubby old man replied with a hint of eeriness.
The red-haired man nodded, a thoughtful expression appearing on his face.
At the same time, in a giant city an unknown distance from the desert, inside a golden tower hall, four other Great Ascension ancestors with different auras stood together, looking at a white, hazy light screen in the center.
The light screen kept changing, reflecting every corner of the desert.
One of the four Great Ascension cultivators, an old man in green robes, was none other than Bi Ying.
The other three were a middle-aged man wearing Confucian robes, a middle-aged woman draped in a colorful, iridescent gown, and a dignified-looking, eagle-eyed man wearing a blood-colored robe.
All four of them watched the scene in the light screen silently, their expressions extremely calm, with no intention of conversing.
Half a day later, a sound of breaking air echoed at the edge of the desert. A streak of crystalline light flashed into view and, with terrifying speed akin to teleportation, flashed once and plunged into the desert.
Almost immediately after, a seven-colored cloud flashed at the horizon, and a cold male voice came from within:
"You have truly angered me this time. I am starting to get tired of this cat-and-mouse game. Let's end this game today."
No sooner had the voice fallen than a booming sound erupted from the seven-colored cloud, which transformed into a seven-colored electric arc and chased in closely.
With one fleeing and one chasing, they crossed nearly half the desert in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea and arrived at the center.
The crystalline light in front retracted, revealing an eight-winged centipede that was snow-white all over and a beautiful woman in silver palace attire.
The giant centipede rolled on the ground and transformed into a white-robed youth with gold and silver spiritual patterns on his face.
The youth's face was extremely pale. The moment he appeared, he immediately looked back.
He saw a thunderclap in the void behind him, and a bolt of lightning appeared, shooting toward where the two had stopped.
Liu Yi's pupils constricted, and he subconsciously retreated. A cold light flashed behind his back, and eight nearly transparent wings appeared again. He was about to transform back into the giant centipede to continue his escape.
Just then, the world rumbled, the earth trembled, and an invisible suction force rolled out from deep underground.
The seven-colored lightning trembled and was unexpectedly fixed in mid-air by this force, revealing a frail, black-robed youth.
It was none other than the True Immortal who had descended to the world, 'Ma Liang'.
In the desert below, dense, colorful pillars of light pierced through the sand and shot straight into the sky.
Amidst the shaking earth, a super array that couldn't be seen to the end slowly emerged from underground. With a 'chi chi' sound, dense ranks of Blood Path disciples appeared and formed a profound array, beginning to chant and activate the magic tools in their hands with the help of the super array's power.
The sky suddenly brightened. After an invisible barrier that looked like a light veil flashed and vanished, a giant light array that covered the entire sky appeared.
It slowly pressed down from above, and a shocking fluctuation immediately filled the entire void.
The black-robed youth was in the middle of the two massive arrays, looking like an ant from afar.
At this moment, figures flashed in the light array in the sky. Twelve Xue Tian Great Ascension cultivators surged out and, after a blur, appeared around the black-robed youth.
They stood far apart, sizing him up coldly.
The black-robed youth fixed in mid-air showed no panic in the face of this shocking scene. Instead, he scanned his surroundings with an extremely gloomy expression. A glow of light swirled around his body, and with a harsh tearing sound, his body immediately returned to normal.
"You have quite the nerve, daring to set a trap to ambush me and mobilizing so many people. It seems you want me to fall here," the black-robed youth said with a sneer in the face of the Heaven and Earth arrays and so many Great Ascension cultivators. "Hmph, you dared to sacrifice hundreds of millions of lives on this continent. You should have anticipated this day," a Great Ascension cultivator shrouded in blood energy huffed.
"I did anticipate it to some extent, but I didn't expect you to collude with those two. Fine, I was already tired of this chase game. After I finish you off, I will personally deal with those two," the black-robed youth said calmly, glancing at Liu Yi and his companion who were quietly retreating into the distance.
"What a big mouth. It seems he won't shed tears until he sees the coffin. Why bother talking nonsense with this fierce demon? Let's do it!" Another old man in bare feet and black robes rolled his eyes and shouted in a low voice.
No sooner had the voice fallen than the old man shook his sleeve. With a clear chime, more than a dozen blood-colored flying swords flew out from his body.
Seeing this, the other Great Ascension cultivators also pinched magic arts, and all kinds of treasures surged out.
At the same time, the two arrays in the sky and on the ground hummed, and countless runes appeared and slowly rotated.
In the sky, light glowed in waves. After condensing, it formed a giant light mirror that blocked the sky and sun.
The surface of the mirror was silver, but after a roar, countless silver threads shot down like a rainstorm.
From the magic array on the ground, clusters of white light drifted out, instantly submerging the densely packed shadows, then suddenly condensed, transforming into an extremely huge "Seal" character.
The 'Seal' character took shape.
The black-robed youth only felt the surrounding void move, and waves of laws rolled in with him as the center.
Facing this situation, the black-robed youth curled his lips and smiled.
The next moment, a terrifying aura erupted from his body. At the same time, purple-gold chains appeared on his body, flashing violently and emitting a blinding light.
The center of the desert darkened, and all the heaven and earth spiritual energy surged crazily toward a single point like a funnel.
At the edge of the desert, a masked man appeared in mid-air at some point. It was Xiao Ming, the Supreme Elder of the Blood Bone Sect.
He had been standing in mid-air with his hands behind his back, but when an aura of destruction erupted from far away, his expression changed instantly.
"The Heaven and Earth Arrays can't even restrict this person. It seems I really have to use that treasure."
Xiao Ming muttered with a solemn expression as he sensed the explosive fluctuations in the distance with his divine sense.
No sooner had the voice fallen than he opened his mouth and spat out a yellow, hazy scroll.
The scroll spun before him and slowly unfolded vertically, revealing a desert topographic map.
The shape of the desert on this map was exactly the same as the desert before him.
Xiao Ming silently pointed his finger at the map before him. Immediately, the object before him trembled, and the desert in the painting, which had appeared dead, began to squirm as if it had come to life.
Echoing this, under the influence of a strange force, the sand grains on the surface of the entire desert began to roll crazily according to a certain pattern.
"Wind Rise"
Xiao Ming changed the magic art in his hand and shouted in a low voice, pointing at the painting again.
Immediately, at the edge of the desert in the painting, after a distortion and blur, wisps of faint yellow mist appeared and began to drift slowly.
At the same time, fluctuations appeared before Xiao Ming, and balls of yellow, hazy mist emerged from thin air, instantly transforming into tornadoes that shot into the sky. There were more and more of them, lined up side by side.
A yellow, hazy wind wall that couldn't be seen to the top immediately took shape.
The same scene emerged simultaneously at the edge of the entire desert.
"Go"
Xiao Ming shook his sleeve and urged the magic art without hesitation.
Immediately, all the wind walls roared, rolling from all directions toward the center of the desert, bringing up balls of sand mist and blowing harder and harder. (To be continued.
