Chapter 2619: with translation of chapter title
In his panic, the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family also, as if venting, casually threw out this formation disk, not even looking at it.
But those nearby, seeing this, instantly widened their eyes: 'You damn well dare to use even Xu Jie's improved formation disk?'
"Third Elder, that's Xu Jie's formation disk."
Someone couldn't help but shout in alarm, and at the same time, everyone hurriedly stepped back, an involuntary flash of fear appearing in their eyes.
Who knows what effect this thing has; don't let it affect us.
Even the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family himself, upon hearing the startled cries of those nearby, was momentarily stunned, then likewise quickly retreated.
He silently cursed.
Damn it, I wasn't paying attention just now—how did I end up taking out this formation disk? This formation disk is not right.
As for the people inside the formation, seeing the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family and his companions suddenly retreat far away, they all froze in place.
What's going on? Unable to break the formation, they simply gave up?
You're just withdrawing like that? We're family—blood is thicker than water—aren't you going to try a bit harder?
His mind raced with countless thoughts, but the next second, as Xu Jie's formation disk lightly struck the great formation's light curtain.
Immediately following, there was a tremendous roar that shook heaven and earth.
Like a bell's toll, and under this sound, everyone felt their heartbeat slow by half a beat.
Their ears rang incessantly, and their heads buzzed nonstop.
"Ah, my ears."
"I seem to have seen my great-grandmother."
"What is this?"
Many couldn't help but clutch their heads and cry out in pain; this was basically a sonic attack.
Even Tianhe and Zhao Tianqing, the two highest cultivators present, now turned pale, their qi and blood surging.
After finally regaining their composure, everyone's faces bore the expression of having survived a calamity.
Immediately afterward, they all glared angrily at the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family.
That sound just now was clearly from the formation disk he threw out.
What the hell is this thing, how can it produce such a sound, it nearly sent them to their deaths.
But before anyone could shout in anger, the next second, as their eyes fell on the great formation's light curtain, everyone was stunned.
They saw that the great formation's light curtain, which had previously been completely smooth, now had several cracks appearing on its surface.
"This……………………"
Before, this great formation showed no movement at all, but now cracks have appeared on it—this indicates that the formation disk the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family threw just now actually works on this great formation.
After trying countless methods, we finally see hope of breaking the formation; to say we're not delighted would surely be a lie.
Yet amidst the joy, recalling that tremendous bell-like roar just now, which made our heads ache and souls tremble, we also feel a lingering fear.
This is rather conflicted.
The hope of breaking the formation may be real, but the suffering is real too.
Just that one strike nearly sent some of them straight to their deaths.
Moreover, given the current situation, truly breaking the formation might still require a couple more strikes, and even that may not suffice.
At the very least, we'd need to endure an experience like that at least ten more times.
Ten times—just thinking about it makes everyone's scalp go numb.
Not only did the people inside the formation see the cracks on the great formation's light curtain, but the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family and his companions outside also saw them.
Those who had retreated far away now each showed a look of astonished delight.
They didn't hear that tremendous bell-like roar, perhaps because they were outside the formation, where the sound only resonates within the formation.
Now seeing that the great formation's light curtain finally had a crack, someone exclaimed in alarm.
"It works—Xu Lǎosān's formation disk actually works?"
For a moment, everyone was overjoyed and immediately planned to continue.
Some people still had Xu Jie's improved formation disks on them.
Thinking this, everyone prepared to break the formation.
But before they could act, the Heavenly Family's patriarch, family head, and Grand Elder inside the formation all began making excited gestures.
Seeing the gestures of those few, the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family frowned and said.
"The patriarch is telling me to stop?"
Incomprehensible—clearly we're on the verge of breaking the formation, escape is right before us, why would the patriarch tell me to halt?
Could it be they don't want to escape?
Not only the patriarch, but the family head and Grand Elder are the same.
Inside the formation, the people anxiously stopped the Third Elder of the Heavenly Family and his companions; seeing that the Third Elder understood, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This Old Three nearly got me killed."
"But if we don't continue, are we just going to wait for death?"
"I feel that even if we break the formation, I'm not far from death anyway."
"But continuing to drain ourselves like this isn't a solution either."
"If you ask me, it's better to suffer short pain than long—let's go all out."
"Exactly, perhaps we weren't prepared before; this time we'll prepare in advance, so it shouldn't be like that."
Breaking the formation is definitely necessary; we've finally found a method, and although it has some side effects, gritting our teeth we can probably endure it—it's just a matter of torment.
However, in the end everyone turned their gaze to Zhao Tianqing and Tianhe, handing the decision over to the two of them.
Tianhe was also feeling terrible at this moment, but he gritted his teeth and, without much hesitation, spoke in a cold voice.
Break the formation—how can we just wait to die here? Let them make a move.
Yes.
Tianhe had been holding his breath; after breaking the formation, he would personally kill that unfilial son.
For that, he endured the discomfort.
Hearing that, the Heavenly Family forefather nodded heavily, as if silently making some resolution in his heart.
Immediately, he gestured to the Third Elder, indicating he should continue.
The Third Elder outside the formation, seeing the forefather again signal him to continue, grew increasingly doubtful in his heart.
What the hell? He was the one who just stopped me, now he tells me to continue—breaking a formation and doing all this useless nonsense.
But with the forefather's gesture, the Third Elder wasted no words and immediately struck again.
This time it wasn't just him; others also brought out Xu Jie's improved Formation Disk one after another.
As the Formation Disk repeatedly struck the great formation's light curtain, those inside the formation clutched their heads, screaming incessantly, some in so much pain they rolled on the spot.
What's happening?
Breaking the formation—why are they rolling around?
The Heavenly Family's Third Elders outside the formation, unable to hear the sound, could only see those inside suffering terribly, doubtful in their hearts, wondering if this was an act.
Breaking a formation, it's as if someone were stabbing you with a knife.
Doubting, the Heavenly Family's Third Elder had no choice but to stop his actions; meanwhile, those inside the formation, after a long while, finally eased a bit.
Seeing the Third Elder and others stop, the Heavenly Family forefather made another gesture to continue.
I think you're all going to die; you only stopped now, and you're coming back?
Seeing the forefather's terrified expression yet gesturing for himself to continue, the Third Elder was at a loss.
However, facing the great formation's light curtain already covered in cracks, the Heavenly Family's Third Elder hesitated only a moment before continuing to throw out the Formation Disk, continuing to break the formation.
We've come this far; there must be a reason not to give up.
