Chapter 764

The formation was exactly the Primordial Nine Heavens Supervising Talisman Dark Nether Great Formation recorded in the Wu tribe's classics.

There was no improvement whatsoever, no innovation at all.

Ancient and obsolete, just like the Dark Nether Immortals who had just bounced out of the Xuanbing coffin.

Moreover, one of the twelve main formation ice pillars was missing. Dark Nether Immortal also had some quick wit; he used forty-nine Snowland tribe Elders as substitutes, letting them jointly suppress one ice pillar.

It was as if a complete person were missing a few ribs in his chest and abdomen, his vital organs laid bare before a grandmaster-level physician who had mastered all the secrets of the human body.

Thus, Wu Tie easily grasped all the vital points of the Dark Nether Great Formation as he left it.

Strands of grayish-white light visible to the naked eye were the concrete manifestation of all the vital points of this great formation to mortal eyes.

Dark Nether Immortal and the others shrieked in horror; Dark Nether Immortal screamed in disbelief: "Impossible, absolutely not—you, you, you…… just what is your origin!"

"I am the king, Wu Tie!" Wu Tie clenched his right hand, and the countless extremely fine grayish-white light strands converging in his palm instantly shattered inch by inch. With a tremendous boom, the twelve ice pillars of the Dark Nether Great Formation shattered simultaneously.

Dark Nether Immortal and the eleven Dark Nether Ancestors roared, their Cold Qi surging as they exerted all their strength to suppress the shattered formation-eye ice pillars, hoping to maintain the stability of the Dark Nether Great Formation.

But the entire formation had become utterly chaotic; the forty-nine Snowland tribe Elders serving as substitutes burst, their bodies turning into strands of blood mist that froze into crystalline ice shards; the formation base they upheld completely collapsed, and the whole formation was like a high-speed grindstone suddenly losing a chunk, triggering an unstoppable chain reaction.

The originally pure Dark Nether Qi violently trembled; from the extreme Dark Nether power, large amounts of other heavenly-earth elemental energies, no longer suppressed due to the formation's chaos, leaked out bit by bit. The formation violently expanded, and in an instant the volume it enveloped increased by dozens of times.

Wu Tie gave a light shout, rose into the air, and from the rear military city, the Yin-Yang Daoist, Five-Elements Daoist, and Seaway Daoist shouted in unison; thousands of Divine Realm experts had already prepared their formation, and a tremendous earth-shaking power instantly poured into Wu Tie from afar.

This time, Wu Tie's body was suffused with warm energy, feeling as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring. The power of thousands of Divine Realm experts poured in; had it been half a month earlier, Wu Tie would have felt excruciating pain all over, with a bursting sensation in his limbs and bones.

But now, Wu Tie's body was utterly at ease; he effortlessly controlled this immense power, channeling it into the Primordial Coronet. Wave after wave of strange ripples spread outward, causing the rapidly expanding Dark Nether Great Formation to suddenly solidify, then swiftly contract inward.

Dark Nether Qi is utmost yin and utmost cold.

As the saying goes, heat expands and cold contracts; the intrinsic nature of Dark Nether Qi is extreme contraction and inward gathering.

The Primordial Coronet expelled the chaotic energy in the Dark Nether Great Formation that had caused its expansion, restoring the formation to pure Dark Nether nature. Having lost one formation base's suppression, Dark Nether Immortal and the others could only watch helplessly as the formation rapidly collapsed and shrank.

"No!" the eleven Dark Nether Ancestors roared in unison.

They frantically chanted incantations, continuously offering the flesh and souls of the slain Snowland warriors on the battlefield to their "Glacier God".

On the ice sculptures towering tens of thousands of feet high, the tridents emitted strong light, and the azure divine light madly surged toward the contracting Dark Nether Great Formation, desperately trying to prop it up and reverse the defeat of Dark Nether Immortal and the others.

One hundred and eight Seaway Divine Pearls leapt into the air and directly slammed into the giant ice sculptures.

The surface of the Seaway Divine Pearls instantly coated with a thin layer of Xuan ice, causing the Seaway Daoists' control over them to become much sluggish.

The Five-Elements Daoist gave a cold snort; five-elements divine light shot up from behind him, he spat a mouthful of old blood, and the five-elements divine light swept down with all its might. With a tremendous boom, the giant ice sculptures, shaken east and west by the Seaway Divine Pearls' impact, flashed with light, and those huge tridents were instantly swept away by the Five-Elements Daoist.

Behind the Five-Elements Daoist, on the Fusang tree, a fist-sized three-legged golden crow opened its beak, emitting fine golden flames that fell like lightning onto those ice sculptures. Seeing large patches of runes on the ice sculptures explode, the ice sculptures began to melt.

The small, recently flesh-recovered three-legged golden crow, in a couple of breaths, expelled its core true fire from its belly cleanly; a mouthful of blood carrying terrifying heat sprayed far away, instantly burning to a wisp of green smoke the dozen or so Snowland tribe Elders rushing toward the military city.

The Yin-Yang Daoist stared at those ice sculptures with bloodshot eyes, letting out a low growl as the Yin-Yang Two-Qi Vessel sprayed from his head, black and white qi whirling in the air, and in an instant swept those ice sculptures inside.

The Dark Nether Great Formation had completely lost external reinforcement; Dark Nether Immortal and the others could only exert all their strength to compete with Wu Tie for control of the formation.

But Wu Tie's understanding and mastery of the Dark Nether Dao were in no way inferior to theirs.

Wu Tie possessed the Primordial Coronet.

Behind Wu Tie were still reinforcements of thousands of Divine Realm experts.

As for the eleven Dark Nether Ancestors, they didn't even have a single decent innate spiritual weapon.

As the Dark Nether Great Formation shrank bit by bit, the Dark Nether Ancestors were also compressed within it, accompanied by shrill wails.

In the end, the Dark Nether Great Formation was compressed into a thin sheet of azure ice crystal the size of a thumb.

Wu Tie lightly pointed his hand; the ice crystal shattered, and the eleven Dark Nether Ancestors trapped within it likewise turned to dust.

The Primordial Coronet slowly rotated; Wu Tie erased the last possibility of these Dark Nether Ancestors' revival, completely slaying them.

The disc-shaped secret treasure given by You Ruo was thrown out by Wu Tie; the eleven Dark Nether Ancestors quickly turned into eleven head-sized soul crystals, eleven bowls of crystal-clear blood essence.

On the front battlefield, countless rays of cold light descended from the heavens and swiftly fell upon the Divine Realm elders of the Snowland tribe.

Thousands of Snowland tribe Divine Realm elders, originally beaten breathless by the Wuguo side, had their aura instantly surge once these cold lights attached to them.

In the snap of a finger, those thousands of Divine Realm elders all became experts at least at the seventh heaven of the Divine Realm.

A few hundred elders of the Four Ferocious clans charging at the forefront were caught off guard, immediately surrounded by several times their number of enemies whose cultivation far surpassed theirs; with just a single strike, anguished cries rang out as over a hundred gigantic beast bodies over a thousand feet long spurted blood all over and were blown away in a miserable state.

Far away, atop a great mountain, a man holding an eagle staff, wearing a long robe and a bamboo hat, stood silently there.

He silently watched the events unfolding on the battlefield; after a long while, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"This Martial King is somewhat interesting… he could have saved these unlucky fellows."

"He's an interesting little fellow; worth trying to make contact."
