Chapter 2673

The forbidden zone emperors fought desperately, the forbidden zone emperors were united as one, the forbidden zone emperors formed the myriad immortals array and charged at the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang without regard for anything, the myriad immortals great array nearly severed the rules of the entire starry sky and everything, coming with heavy and terrifying force.

One great Dao after another fell like ropes, forming one great Dao authority binding rope after another that stabbed toward the blue-clad youth.

This was a deeper evolution of the forbidden zone emperors' myriad immortals array, mobilizing even greater power, the array's operation was more effective, the emperors greatly lowered their guard against each other, even at this moment they could be said to share life and death, trusting each other more than comrades who entrust life and death.

This greatly violated human nature, but the forbidden zone emperors could do it.

If the myriad immortals array were seen as a super immortal Dao instrument, then at this moment, the array's power became more concentrated and precise, greater in power, the array's flaws were reduced by more than half in an instant, forming a force that shattered everything and charged toward the end-times Dao!

"Indeed, much stronger."

"Unfortunately, fellow Daoists, the height at which you stand has a problem..."

Jiang Ding quietly watched this scene, watching the emperors' madness.

Clang!

He drew his sword and casually swung a strike.

This sword was like an antelope's hanging horn, casually picked up, like a beautiful arc sweeping across the sky, casually slashing into the myriad immortals great array's many Dao ropes, likewise not a killing move, likewise not a strike built up over time, just a casual slash.

This was not arrogance. Rather, facing such a bloated, huge, clumsy opponent, agility and adaptability were most important, while the amount of power was secondary.

This sword light, upon entering the myriad immortals array's Dao ropes, jumped billions of times in an instant, constantly moving back and forth, forcibly driving high-frequency changes in the array's patterns, artificially creating flaws, then piercing through.

Before this end-times sword light, the forbidden zone emperors' roars and their charge and array killing moves collapsed like ice and snow under sunlight, like building blocks, merely touching a few pillars was enough to make them shatter and collapse.

The sword light flashed past!

Boom—

Boom—boom...

The myriad immortals great array's many Dao authority ropes, the killing moves the forbidden zone emperors painstakingly condensed had not yet truly been unleashed when they already exploded in midair, the array patterns' energy became unstable, then suddenly collapsed, producing a terrifying backlash that surged into the array, causing the many forbidden zone ancient emperors to violently retreat several light-years, spitting blood in large mouthfuls.

"No!"

"How is this possible! How is this possible!"

The ancient great emperor, the nine-leaf sword emperor, and others nearly wept blood as they roared.

This scene nearly caused their Dao hearts to collapse, they could not accept this scene at all.

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's casual strike, even without attacking, without attacking! Just this, their fervent battle intent, firm determination, and immortal-seeking Daoist will that did not fear death all became a joke, meaningless, valueless, shattered and collapsed on the spot like clowns.

The gap is too great!

This is the gap of immortal Dao civilization level!

"Reason?"

"Do you know the reason?"

Jiang Ding Zi muttered, explaining to himself: "Your myriad immortals array is not bad, but it is an eight-character immortal scripture level military formation, its energy flow, array structure, and immortal Dao civilization level are of eight-character immortal scripture level, all power enhancement comes from constant stacking at the eight-character immortal scripture level."

"Such stacking can overwhelm cultivators of the same level."

"For cultivators one level above, it is like a bamboo basket—easily broken, full of holes, and reducing your leaks means nothing."

"You, and even the entire endless starry sky, have not developed a military formation of seven-character immortal scripture level."

Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang spoke leisurely, as if teaching, patiently explaining to everyone the reasons for their failure, giving various examples.

"Military formations,"

"Since ancient times have always been about overcoming levels, with countless battle examples..." a forbidden zone ancient emperor roared unwillingly.

A forbidden zone ancient emperor remained silent.

A forbidden zone ancient emperor's heart turned completely cold.

"Hehehe..."

"Really overcoming levels?"

Jiang Ding smiled: "When I was young, many interesting things happened at the Golden Core Nascent Soul level, since some fellow Daoists don't understand, let me use the Golden Core Nascent Soul level as an example."

"Among Golden Core Nascent Soul cultivators, dozens of Golden Core cultivators assisted by large numbers of Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators forming a military formation can kill Nascent Soul cultivators, common and not surprising."

"What is the core factor?"

"Is it outstanding Golden Core officers?"

"Is it Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators with outstanding military literacy?"

"Or what?"

In an instant, many forbidden zone ancient emperors stood stunned as if struck by lightning: "Yes."

"The core factor is none of these!"

"Even the most outstanding Golden Core officer is not the core factor!"

Jiang Ding's voice suddenly rose greatly, he said solemnly: "The core reason is that they mastered the fourth-level military formation! Nascent Soul-level military formation!"

"It is the fourth-level military formation!"

"Fourth-level military formation facing fourth-level Nascent Soul cultivators—is this overcoming levels? Tell me, mongrel trash!"

Clang!

The Tai Qing flying sword rose like a splendid end-times blazing sun!

The Tai Qing flying sword descended from heaven, slammed into the myriad immortals great array, shattered layer after layer of array barriers, forcibly blasted twenty-six forbidden zone ancient emperors out of the array's core, cutting off the connection between the forbidden zone ancient emperors and the quadrillions-level forbidden zone Dao soldiers and star region Dao soldiers.

This was all too easy, too simple!

Twenty-six forbidden zone ancient emperors formed an array, united the quadrillions of strongest Dao soldiers under heaven, but whenever Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang wanted, he could easily break through, truly like rotten wood and broken tiles, the forbidden zone ancient emperors awaited slaughter like necks stretched for the knife!

One forbidden zone ancient emperor after another spat large mouthfuls of blood, heavily smashed into the starry sky, faces like gold paper, breath fading. Like stray dogs.

Like ants.

Never had there been a moment when these forbidden zone ancient emperors were as miserable as now, possessing nothing, having nothing to rely on.

"Return to the source, where did the original fourth-level great array come from?"

"Where did it come from?"

Jiang Ding pointed his sword at the starry sky and said calmly: "Created by Nascent Soul cultivators! Created by the most elite Golden Core cultivators! With the innate talent of a Golden Core cultivator, even as a Golden Core, one can fully comprehend many things of the Nascent Soul level, and create a fourth-tier Nascent Soul great array by surpassing one's realm!"

"This is a fourth-tier military formation against a fourth-tier Nascent Soul cultivator!"

"In the past, you, as the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture Ancient Emperors, joined forces and could fight to the death for many years against the then Eight-Character Immortal Scripture Sovereign, ultimately letting the Sovereign barely win; at that time, you could create an Eight-Character-level military formation with your Nine-Character bodies."

"Now, among you,"

"is there anyone who, though residing in the Eight-Character level, fully understands the Seven-Character level?"

"Or, among you, has someone found some relic of a previous generation and obtained the inheritance of the Seven-Character military formation?"

"Is there?" Jiang Ding asked indifferently.

At that moment, the twenty-six forbidden zone Ancient Emperors fell silent.
