Chapter 1827

~11 min read 2,116 words

He Xiao has finally appeared! The mastermind behind the chaotic situation in the Inverted Sea has finally surfaced.

He Lingchuan provided Bai Ziqi with clues about the Positive and Negative Heavenly Gang Array, allowing Bai Ziqi to enter the Inverted Sea smoothly, but he himself never appeared publicly from beginning to end. So many times, Bai Ziqi vaguely felt He Lingchuan's handiwork, but couldn't be sure.

Now he could confirm his initial judgment: He Xiao had indeed been hiding behind the Illusion Sect all along, secretly making trouble! He Xiao used the Illusion Sect to hide himself and attack the enemy; this matter naturally couldn't be hidden from Thousand Illusions. However, Bai Ziqi was very curious, why did Thousand Illusions still let He Xiao continue to do this after coming out of seclusion? Judging from Miao Zhantian's description of Thousand Illusions, this True Immortal is not easy to fool.

I'm afraid this is He Xiao's formidable point.

The two of them had their own thoughts, but the two teams didn't delay and collided together to fight again.

The Tiangong's cultivators also tried every possible way to sneak attack the small Questioning Tree, mostly intercepted by He Lingchuan commanding the Illusion Sect. Occasionally, a few couldn't be blocked, but fortunately, the small Questioning Tree carried it down, just losing more branches and leaves.

Fighting so fiercely as soon as they met shows that this battle was more or less mixed with a little personal grudge between the commanders of both sides.

Just at this time, He Lingchuan suddenly sensed the reminder from the Haoyuan Gold Mirror:

Divine Fire Array abnormal movement!

The Haoyuan Gold Mirror can communicate partially with its master and give some reminders. Now He Lingchuan also enjoys this privilege.

He hurriedly took out the mirror to look: Good fellow, the brightness of several array positions of the Divine Fire Array has been strengthened again.

The Divine Fire Array originally had seventeen array positions, basically spanning the entire Silver Pearl Island, with a large range, but it also consumed huge energy every second; later, Miao Zhantian suddenly discovered Thousand Illusions' true body and the secret of the Inverted Sea, so there was no need to keep this giant array that was big but useless, so it was revised to seven array positions, also forming an eye pattern, but the range was very small, basically just surrounding the Inverted Lake: the pupil was the five meteorite craters circling the lake, and the other two light spots were divided into two corners of the eye.

Seventeen light spots became seven, big eye became small eye.

Compared to the seventeen-array version, this seven-point version is a bit simple, and the shape is not so regular, but every light spot, that is, the Divine Radiance Meteorite, has suddenly been greatly strengthened! He Lingchuan looked and muttered: "Interesting, Miao Zhantian also knows how to save energy."

After slimming down the array, Miao Zhantian saved sixty percent of energy at once, and had the energy to strengthen the remaining light spots.

It must ensure that it can seize the control of the Inverted Sea as soon as possible.

In this way, the difficulty of the Illusion Sect taking the meteorite crater has further increased.

After the small Questioning Tree grew branches and leaves, the growth speed slowed down, while the meteorite gradually became scorching bright, the rotation speed accelerated again, and the momentum was terrifying.

From this, one can also see the flexibility and resilience of Miao Zhantian's divine arts, even exceeding Thousand Illusions by a little.

Truly a difficult opponent.

At this time, the Illusion Sect team commanded by He Lingchuan was also retreating slowly toward the bottom of the pit under the suppression of the Tiangong's army. Behind them was a big fireball; no one felt comfortable being roasted like this.

This is because the Tiangong's team sacrificed all their Ghoul Beasts as soon as they entered the field, and even sent several spare Child-Eating Ghoul Beasts to the field. The Golden Armored Divine General even scrapped two units directly during the sprinting process, but also tore a big opening in the enemy's line.

With this wave of desperate charges, the Tiangong's team could still advance toward the Questioning Tree even though their overall strength was slightly inferior.

The Questioning Tree on the meteorite was the focus of defense for both sides.

He Lingchuan suffered a loss here, because he didn't really understand the divine arts of the Illusion Sect cultivators and couldn't arrange interceptions based on this.

The Questioning Tree was hit by several flowing light arrows, and a hole the size of a water vat was blown out of the tree body, which people could see through directly.

Half of the branches and leaves fell rustlingly, and were burned to fly ash before reaching the ground. If this continued, let alone extinguishing the meteorite, I'm afraid the small Questioning Tree would be gone first.

Seeing that there was a chance, the Tiangong's team attacked even more fiercely.

Luo Xie happened to fight side by side with Wan Qiliang, slashed an enemy, and was splashed with blood all over his face.

He had studied art in the Illusion Sect for many years, but now he felt that this group of foreign warriors was closer.

"On the battlefield, your ruthlessness is enough, but your technique is insufficient." Wan Qiliang taught him how to slash and dodge so that he wouldn't be splashed all over with blood every time he killed someone. Otherwise, if it splashed into his eyes and blocked his vision, it would cause danger to himself again.

Luo Xie learned humbly and asked again: "The opponent's great divine arts are one after another, are we, are we..."

He swallowed his saliva: "A bit unable to beat them?"

He had followed the Illusion Sect all the way, and hadn't seen the elders release any big moves, and even Thousand Illusions' old ancestor hadn't shown his face, while the opponent was fierce and powerful, so it was inevitable that he would feel a gap in his heart.

Not just him, the morale of the Illusion Sect team wasn't very high either.

Wan Qiliang wiped his sweat: "When they entered the Inverted Sea, there were more than three thousand people; now there are only a few hundred left. You say they are powerful?"

Luo Xie scratched the back of his head: "The Heavenly Demon leading them is powerful."

He also had self-knowledge, knowing that the warriors on the opposite side were also cannon fodder on the immortal-demon battlefield, just like himself.

"Is the dog that barks the fiercest in your village the most powerful dog king?"

Luo Xie immediately shook his head: "No. The most powerful dogs don't bark; they are sinister."

"Then isn't that right? The most powerful dog, it doesn't bark!" Wan Qiliang slashed another enemy, "Keep your own little life safe, only then will you have the chance to see who is the most powerful one!"

And in the far front, the Soul-Taking Mirror, fearing that the world wouldn't be chaotic enough, suddenly let out a loud scream at this time: "Danger, danger!"

He Lingchuan did hear it make a 'kaba' sound, knowing it wasn't alarmist: "What's going on?"

"There is a terrifying energy behind Bai Ziqi. I tried to probe it, but was almost shocked and injured!" The mirror was still fearful, "You must be careful, I found it has been observing you. Its spiritual energy is truly very powerful and very familiar..."

It screamed 'ah' again: "Miao Zhantian, it's Miao Zhantian's power! Master, Miao Zhantian is very likely, no, Miao Zhantian must be hiding in Bai Ziqi's team!"

He Lingchuan was shocked.

From his angle, Bai Ziqi was riding on a floating boat, three feet off the ground.

There were many people on the boat, but no matter how you looked at it, there was no one whose bearing or appearance looked like True Monarch Cangxi—the appearance of an ancient True Immortal is different from ordinary people.

But the Soul-Taking Mirror's sensing rarely made mistakes.

It can see things but not through eyes, and can observe special things that humans cannot see.

Not to mention that the Soul-Taking Mirror is also different from the past; it can discover its peeping, and the powerful force that almost shattered it across the air should be few and far between in this Inverted Sea.

So, Miao Zhantian really followed Bai Ziqi? Right opposite He Lingchuan? This is extremely possible. Where else could the Dharma body of a Great Heavenly Demon be if not by the side of the Tiangong's commander? It's no wonder the Tiangong's team performed so bravely; the big leader was here to supervise the work personally! The mirror also said that the opposite side was staring at He Lingchuan.

That is to say, Miao Zhantian was observing him? Being stared at directly by a Great Heavenly Demon is not a good thing. Now when he looked at Bai Ziqi's eyes, they all seemed to reveal the certainty of "you are dead."

At the critical moment of battling Thousand Illusions, Miao Zhantian wouldn't specifically look for He Lingchuan, but it would be different if he bumped into the muzzle of the gun himself. This kid likely deceived its Eye of Truth test back then, causing the Tiangong's pursuit of him to be misled for several years, and even when State Preceptor Frost Leaf was questioned, he used this matter to defend himself.

Later, all kinds of disturbances on the Flash Gold Plains were related to He Lingchuan, or rather, the Great Emperor of Nine Nether, so Miao Zhantian wouldn't mind getting rid of this scourge here.

He Lingchuan suddenly thought of another thing, so shocked that goosebumps were about to stand up:

Wait, wait!

After Miao Zhantian changed the array, seventeen array positions became seven; does this mean it can free up more energy and more divine arts to care about the ordinary battlefield?

If this is true, the North Lake battlefield where He Lingchuan and the others are located is the most dangerous place in the entire Inverted Sea, and its risk index even far exceeds the immortal-demon battlefield in the east of the lake!

In an instant, several thoughts were fighting in He Lingchuan's mind.

Should I retreat? Should I ask for help from Thousand Illusions or Xiao Wencheng and others? Wait, if Miao Zhantian comes to supervise the battle personally, their side won't have a good end even if they retreat.

Actually, there is another choice:

Fight hard right in front of Miao Zhantian!

Thoughts flew, and He Lingchuan also made up his mind. Through the Haoyuan Gold Mirror, he first passed an important message to his partners: "Miao Zhantian has already arrived. If the situation is not good in a while, don't hesitate, cross the mirror and leave directly!"

He Lingchuan swept his gaze over Wan Qifeng not far away, and seeing him nod at himself, he took out a silver bowl, threw it toward the top of the meteorite with his backhand, and then pinched a magic formula he had just learned.

This is one of the ritual vessels on the offering table of the Secret Hall, also transformed by Thousand Illusions' immortal power, and will not be roasted by the Divine Radiance Meteorite.

It flew to a position ten zhang directly above the meteorite and hovered, the bowl body turned over, and suddenly poured out a rolling torrent! That was the momentum of a mountain flood, and also like the spectacular scene when Xiao Wencheng set off a tsunami in another world through the Haoyuan Gold Mirror.

It's just that the water wasn't muddy yellow, but instead a weird silver-white color like mercury.

This surging amount of water first rushed onto the Questioning Tree and the giant meteorite, and He Lingchuan heard a loud 'chi-la' sound, and a large group of silver mist rose to the sky.

At that moment, the color of the meteorite suddenly turned bright red, and it no longer emitted light—like a cooked duck egg yolk.

The meteorite was forcibly cooled down.

At the same time, the small Questioning Tree's branches and leaves were covered with silver beads, and the big hole in the tree body healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The water poured out from the silver bowl was also what it urgently needed at the moment.

As a plant, besides nutrients, what it needs is naturally the most important water!

The Illusion Sect team was fighting fiercely, and when they heard the sound, they looked back, and saw the mountain flood rolling toward them, and they were also shocked.
