Chapter 267: Go To Yellow Springs To Recruit Old Troops, And Kill Yama With A Hundred Thousand Banne
Chapter 267: Go To Yellow Springs To Recruit Old Troops, And Kill Yama With A Hundred Thousand Banne
Chapter 267: Heading to Yellow Springs, summoning the old department, ten thousand flags behead Yan Luo!
Boom!
Rumbling!
Countless divine lights flickered in the sky, and endless sparks rose and fell in the chaotic aura, shattering.
Zhuo Canglang and his companions were covered in dense runes, with rich immortal light, faintly converging into a formation.
The size of this formation was unprecedented.
Its profound and obscure nature was unimaginable, only vaguely outlining a shape, as if even this world couldn't contain it.
The entire world's aura changed.
In the boundless void, it seemed as if ancient gods were chanting, like endless waves that never ceased.
The sea outside Sea Demon Island gradually boiled, countless waves shattered, as if welcoming the arrival of an ancient existence.
The sea floor trembled.
Volcanoes erupted from the sea, causing towering waves and a mixture of water and fire, like a natural disaster.
The formation was too massive!
Just by outlining a corner, Zhuo Canglang and the others had already caused a tremendous commotion.
By the East Sea.
On top of the Demon Suppression City, Ji Yan and the others also felt the distant aura, their expressions changing.
Ji Yan sighed, "In the end, it has come to this?"
Others remained silent, their moods heavy. Although they didn't know what had happened, they had a premonition in their hearts.
...
"We cannot let them complete that formation!"
The Shadow Emperor's gaze turned cold, his voice filled with fear. His intuition told him that if the human race succeeded, they would truly be defeated!
The Night Emperor didn't waste any more words, "Attack!"
Over a dozen Demon Emperors exerted their full strength, without any reservations.
A vast wave of demonic energy surged forth.
The demonic light here was intense, radiating to the heavens. Countless giant objects in the void shattered, turning into countless particles that shot out like arrows, capable of piercing through space.
Buzz!
Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, didn't dodge or avoid, his hand seals subtly changed.
The golden wheel in front of him spun rapidly, growing larger and larger, radiating intense sunlight. It truly transformed into a scorching sun, emitting a terrifying divine radiance, blocking the demonic tide.
Boom!
The dense demonic energy collided with the golden sunlight.
Constant erosion, collision, and shattering.
Terrifying movements stirred up a frenzy, endless brilliance, and this void was annihilated.
The golden wheel was truly a Quasi-Emperor weapon, with astonishing defense. It withstood the joint attacks of over a dozen Demon Emperors, remaining unscathed.
Puff!
Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, grunted, as if he had aged significantly, his aura fluctuating.
The Night Emperor coldly said, "He won't last much longer, continue the fierce assault!"
He could see that Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, was somewhat struggling to use the golden wheel. There was a huge gap between a Quasi-Emperor and an ordinary Earth Immortal, with a Mahayana Celestial Immortal in between.
Even with Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being's astonishing cultivation, it was difficult to fully control it.
Not to mention resisting the joint attack of more than ten Demon Emperor powerhouses, the pressure is at its maximum, and the Sun Wheel can naturally hold on, but he cannot.
Boom!
The Demon Emperors no longer hold back and use all their means.
The Night Emperor's forehead demon pattern surges and transforms into a pitch-black long knife. It is the bone of its own demon that it shed when it reached the Demon Emperor realm, and its power is boundless.
With a raise of its hand, the night sky turns into a devouring black hole.
The terrifying power of devouring permeates the void, swallowing and tearing apart all light and vitality, leaving nothing behind.
The Shadow Emperor turns into countless black shadows, seemingly splitting into numerous clones, attacking from different angles. It is a vast and terrifying sight, like an endless ocean, causing despair in those who see it.
The Bone Dragon Emperor emits a radiant light, and a bone whip made of twenty-four sections of golden dragon bones shines brightly, floating above its head. It exudes a terrifying brilliance, growing longer in the wind, and lashes towards the Sun Wheel.
In an instant,
The void collapses here, annihilated by a vast radiance. The gaze cannot approach this place, and even divine consciousness will be instantly destroyed.
This place has already turned into an isolated domain.
"Hold on for me!"
Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, goes wild with his white hair dancing, and his body is filled with dense immortal light.
His cultivation continuously pours into the Sun Wheel.
The Sun Wheel trembles, and a terrifying golden light spews out, forming a barrier that protects all the human race within it.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The terrifying explosions shatter the universe.
Several layers of barriers cannot isolate this movement.
The entire East Sea is turned upside down.
The Great Prison Demon Array that envelops Sea Demon Island isolates more than ninety percent of this disturbance. It constantly shakes and the blood mist surges, creating a horrifying scene.
But the terrifying aura still seeps out.
Countless creatures are swept away by this wave, directly shattered, and the sea turns red.
...
"I don't believe they can hold on for much longer!"
"Continue!"
"..."
The Demon Race continues its fierce attack. Soon, the brilliance of the Sun Wheel is no longer as dazzling as before, becoming somewhat dim.
Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, looks withered and his aura is in decline.
His body trembles slightly.
He raises his head and looks towards the high void. Zhuo Canglang and the others are still setting up the formation at full speed, but the formation is still far from complete.
"Perfected Being, how are you?"
The Elder Tian Shi of the Dragon-Tiger Immortal Gate appears nearby and quickly asks.
"I can still hold on!"
Dao Xuan, the Perfected Being, takes a deep breath, and suddenly golden flames ignite on his body. These flames are not scorching hot, but instead give off an incomparably sacred feeling and possess astonishing vitality.
The expression on the face of the Old Heavenly Master changed: "Perfected Being, you!"
The rest of the people felt that something was wrong and looked over.
Even Zhuo Canglang and others who were busy setting up the formation in a high place also shifted their gaze and their expressions changed.
The aura of Dao Xuan Perfected Being steadily rose. The injuries he had just suffered seemed to have healed instantly, and the radiance of the Great Sun Golden Wheel became even more brilliant. His defense power reached its peak, resisting the attacks of the Demon Emperors like a tide.
He smiled and said with an air of immortality: "A thousand years ago, when the Demon Race invaded, my colleagues and seniors from the Three Purities Immortal Gate sacrificed their lives to save us! Today, as the battle unfolds again, it is the members of the Three Purities who fight to the death, wanting to protect the human race..."
"But this human race is not the human race of the Three Purities!"
"It is also our human race!"
"I am not talented, but I am willing to sacrifice my life to exchange for a glimmer of hope for the human race!"
With each word he spoke, the radiance on his body became brighter and brighter, until finally, he appeared like a shining sun, dazzlingly bright.
"The Extreme Immortal Curse..." several Earth Immortals murmured, their faces filled with shock.
This is one of the famous techniques of Shu Mountain.
Similar to the Longevity of Heaven and Earth of the Three Purities Sword Lineage, it is a method of exchanging lifespan for powerful strength.
However, using the Longevity of Heaven and Earth does not necessarily lead to death; one can choose to consume their own lifespan.
The Extreme Immortal Curse is more extreme. Once it is cast, it is destined to exhaust one's vitality and become powerless, of course... the power gained from this exchange is also quite astonishing.
Boom!
At this moment, the aura emanating from Dao Xuan Perfected Being was unprecedentedly terrifying.
Originally, he was just an Earth Immortal who had passed the Ninth Layer Thunder Tribulation.
Now, he was comparable to a Mahayana Celestial Immortal who had passed the Twelfth Layer Thunder Tribulation.
His eyes burst with a brilliant light, and his clothes rustled, transforming him from the immortal old man with an air of immortality into a fierce and ferocious war god.
Night Emperor and the others looked at Dao Xuan Perfected Being, their expressions changing slightly, feeling a hint of fear.
Boom!
Dao Xuan Perfected Being descended and broke into the endless night.
He raised his hand and unleashed a terrifying immortal light, directly dispersing the endless darkness and striking Night Emperor's body.
Night Emperor's pupils contracted, half of his body shattered, and he was directly blasted into the void, crashing down onto Sea Demon Island. In an instant, mountains collapsed, endless rivers were incinerated, and countless demon cities were destroyed, creating a horrifying scene.
"I let you invade!"
"I let you invade!"
"I let you invade!!!"
The situation instantly reversed. Dao Xuan Perfected Being chased after Night Emperor, violently beating him, from the sky to the underground, and then throwing him into the void, hammering him all the way.
Shadow Emperor tried several times to launch a sneak attack but was caught on the spot by Dao Xuan Perfected Being and severely injured.
"Don't mind me, he can't kill me... Stop them first..." Night Emperor's voice sounded muffled, and then he was once again beaten into the ground, his voice covered by the sound of rolling mountains collapsing.
Dao Xuan Perfected Being in this state was too powerful, reaching the pinnacle of sublimation.
Even he was not an opponent.
Of course, Night Emperor also had means to contend, but they were life-threatening, and he didn't want to risk his life.
Dao Xuan Perfected Being was risking his life to protect the human race behind him.
And what about him?
He was completely naked behind him, having sacrificed all the Demon Race himself, protecting nothing!
So he cannot die!
It is not yet the time for certain death!
As he said, he curled up the endless darkness, transforming it into a cloak, covering himself, and enjoying... uh, enduring the brutal beatings and ravages of Daoxuan Perfected Being.
His body was almost beaten into a pile of mud.
But it didn't matter, the Demon Emperor had astonishing vitality and could always recover.
He was indeed very strong, even if it was the battle power of a Celestial Immortal level, even if it could crush him, it couldn't quickly kill him.
The other Demon Emperors came to their senses.
No longer caring about the Night Emperor, they all rushed forward, wanting to break through the defense of the Great Sun Golden Wheel and disrupt Zhuo Canglang and the others' progress.
At this moment, high in the void, that terrifying formation had already completed one-third.
Ancient and sacred aura continuously emanated from the array patterns, exuding a terrifying atmosphere.
It was unimaginable, once the formation was complete, how powerful would it be?
...
However, even while brutally beating the Night Emperor, Daoxuan Perfected Being did not give up control of the Great Sun Golden Wheel.
Those Demon Emperors were forced back by the terrifying sunlight as soon as they approached, and any means were unable to break through that boundary, a true impregnable fortress.
"Faster... faster..."
The Demon Emperors were anxious.
But Huozu and the others were equally anxious, constantly murmuring, countless immortal lights surged out from their bodies, rapidly condensing into array patterns.
Time was precious, it was exchanged for with Daoxuan Perfected Being's life.
They knew that Daoxuan Perfected Being was in his last moments, unable to hold on for much longer.
There was no time for sentimentality now.
But there was no way, this formation was too complex, even with their cultivation level and profound understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, it was still very difficult to set up quickly, impatience would only lead to mistakes.
Boom!
A loud explosion came from the void.
Daoxuan Perfected Being was forced back by the Night Emperor, no longer as powerful as before, the light on his body gradually dissipated, and his figure became transparent.
The situation had reversed.
The power that Daoxuan Perfected Being had burned his lifespan to obtain was exhausted.
His body completely shattered, turning into a vast Celestial Immortal light.
"Perfected Being!!!"
Several Earth Immortals were all shocked.
The Sect Master of Shu Mountain had sacrificed himself like this!
Turning into a rain of light, incomparably brilliant, illuminating the entire East Sea.
On the shore of the East Sea, on top of the Demon Suppression City.
Everyone looked at the distant rain of light, feeling sorrowful.
Especially the disciples of Shu Mountain, sensing something, they all knelt down.
"Sect Master--"
"Farewell, Sect Master!"
Ji Yan and the others had a heavy expression on their faces.
Has even a powerhouse like Dao Xuan Perfected Being fallen?
What is the current situation of the battle on the island?
...
The Great Sun Golden Wheel lost its radiance.
It fell down.
The Demon Race powerhouses had no more obstacles in front of them and were crazily charging forward.
"Everyone, give it your all!"
"What Dao Xuan Perfected Being said is correct. The Human Race... is the Human Race of all of us. Today, we will fight to the death, with no regard for our lives!"
The Earth Immortal powerhouses of the Qiang Celestial Immortal Sect roared in anger, burning their life force, their blood boiling, transforming into towering giants, radiating golden light, and charging forward to fight against the Demon Emperors.
The Heavenly Master rose up, thunder turning into a sea, like a thunder god.
He also ignited himself, his aura terrifying, forcefully blocking two Demon Emperors, buying time for Zhuo Canglang and the others.
There were many imitators.
All the Earth Immortals went mad, their eyes bloodshot, no longer intending to return alive.
The terrifying aura shattered the sky.
Not long after.
Two more Earth Immortals fell due to burning themselves.
They forcibly replaced one Demon Emperor.
It was extremely tragic.
"They've gone mad, this group of Human Race has gone completely mad!"
The Demon Emperors cursed and complained, extremely embarrassed. They should have had the advantage, but they were being chased and attacked by a group of Human Race who burned their life force.
They had no intention of dying and only wanted to drag the power gained from the Human Race burning their life force down with them.
Instead, they provided Zhuo Canglang with a lot of time.
"Not enough, still not enough!"
Zhuo Canglang's eyes turned red, his body radiating immortal light, his black hair already turning white, his consumption terrifying.
Even at this stage, the formation was only two-thirds complete.
The situation was extremely critical.
"To the southeast, Formation Seven, Column Thirty-Six, change the position of Kan!"
Just at this moment, a consciousness suddenly descended and reached their ears.
The Fire Ancestor and the others were all startled.
Luo Binglan recognized the source of the voice and said in surprise, "Disciple?"
Zhuo Canglang also blurted out, "Saint Child!"
Wang Xiu continued to transmit his voice, "There's no time, do as I say. The formation can be simplified. Faster and stronger!"
The group regained their senses and focused their gaze on the position Wang Xiu had just mentioned, their hearts trembling.
Wang Xiu...
He was actually reminding them to improve the formation!
The Fire Ancestor hesitated and said, "Will this work?"
This formation was their last resort. If something went wrong, it would be over!
Zhuo Canglang took a deep breath.
It seemed like an instant, yet it also felt like countless years.
His thoughts had gone through unimaginable struggles, and he slowly exhaled, "I believe in him!"
Snow Ancestor blurted out, "There's no time, hurry!"
...
The Nine Nether Summoning Formation!
That was the name of the formation Zhuo Canglang and the others were currently setting up.
This formation was extremely ancient, believed to have been passed down from the ancient era. Its divine power was shocking, capable of summoning the fallen heroes from the river of history in a certain area!
The success rate of summoning the heroes depended on the depth of their connection.
This formation was recorded in the Sutra Pavilion of the Three Purities Immortal Gate, but only fragments remained.
But Wang Xiu knew that this formation had actually been completed.
Although it was not as powerful as the original ancient formation, its effectiveness should not be much different.
Near Sea Demon Island, countless peerless powerhouses from the Three Purities Immortal Gate had fallen. If they could be summoned back, the calamity of the Demon Race could be resolved with a snap of the fingers!
However, the completed formation had its drawbacks.
Many parts were cumbersome and not concise enough.
One of the important points was that setting up this large formation required a great sacrifice.
The one setting up the formation was destined to sacrifice all their lifespan, exchanging their life for a chance of success.
Therefore, it couldn't be set up in advance.
They could only go all out when they truly realized that things were impossible.
But this kind of large formation was not limited to just the Nine Nether Summoning Formation.
In the Underworld Emperor's Prison Suppression Scripture, there was a technique called "Underworld Emperor's Soul Calling Talisman" that had a similar effect, but its effect was stronger and the cost was smaller.
The Nine Nether Summoning Formation could summon four or five heroes back, exchanging one life for one life.
But if this technique was executed properly, the effect would be astonishing.
However, this technique had extremely high requirements for cultivation level, and it was difficult for Wang Xiu to achieve it with his current realm.
But if it was transformed into a formation, there was a possibility of executing it.
...
Techniques and formations may seem like two different fields.
In reality, all the Great Dao paths ultimately converge.
It's just a matter of understanding and applying the runes of the Great Dao.
Not to mention Wang Xiu's profound understanding of the Underworld Emperor's Prison Suppression Scripture, which had already reached a perfect level.
His accomplishments in formations were also rare in the world.
For others, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens, but he was different.
Crash!
A large amount of seawater transformed into runes, changing and deducing in front of Wang Xiu.
His powerful divine soul rapidly operated.
While transforming the spells into formations, he transmitted the changes of each step to Sea Demon Island.
"Formation Nine, arrange to the southeast, shift the Kan position to the north!"
"..."
"Formation Forty-One, Qian position, arrange the birth characters, form the constellation seal!"
"..."
With each sound of Wang Xiu's divine soul, the formations in the void rapidly spread at a speed several times faster than before. The emitted aura was even more terrifying than before, and the unimaginable radiance turned into a sea of stars, enveloping Zhuo Canglang and the others.
The formations transformed into a huge ancient stone platform, suspended in the void.
Just one step away!
As long as someone stepped onto that stone platform and sacrificed themselves, the summoning of the heroic spirits would be completed.
Boom!
Just at this moment, a figure descended, incredibly terrifying and violent. Terrifying storms swept through the void, and Zhuo Canglang and the others, who had set up the formation, were already weakened to the extreme and were all shaken away.
The Night Emperor's cloak lightly danced, and his pitch-black eyes revealed a cruel smile. "What a pity... just a little bit more!"
Zhuo Canglang and the others exchanged glances, their eyes filled with fierceness, and they erupted with their final strength, rushing towards the summoning platform.
The corners of the Night Emperor's mouth lifted, showing a mocking smile.
Like a cat playing with a mouse, he fought against Zhuo Canglang and the others.
Although he was in a worse state at the moment, he was still much better than Zhuo Canglang and the others.
He could have easily dealt with them.
But how could he kill them so easily when this group of lowly humans made it so difficult for them?
Wouldn't that be letting them off too easily?
He continuously gave Zhuo Canglang and the others opportunities, allowing them to approach the summoning platform, and then at critical moments, he would shake them away.
Watching their frantic appearance, the Night Emperor felt a sense of satisfaction in venting.
"Come on!"
"Why aren't you coming up?"
"You exhausted your lifespan to set up this formation, and now you can't activate it. It must be tough, right? Hahaha..."
"Rotten apples will always be rotten apples! The lowly race will always be lowly. Dreaming of resisting the invasion of my Demon Race's army is simply daydreaming!"
The Night Emperor was very pleased, freely spouting nonsense. "Even if the Great Emperor comes today, it won't change your fate!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +10,000 mana!]
Zhuo Canglang and Snow Ancestor exchanged glances, seeing despair and unwillingness in each other's eyes.
The Earth Immortals of the human race who were fighting to the death in the distance also had faces full of despair.
It had come to this point.
In the end, they still couldn't succeed?
The human race...
Is there no hope left?
However...
Just at this moment,
An astonishing scene that surprised everyone appeared.
...
"The Eighteen Hells of the Inspector, assisting the Ten Kings, dividing good and evil into two paths, the yin and yang report life and death, all creatures are born from embryos and eggs, all belong to the underworld..."
A swift and agile incantation resounded suddenly behind the Night Emperor.
The Night Emperor trembled all over and turned his head abruptly to look.
On the summoning platform, an unknown figure of a young human had appeared at some point. With hands forming seals, he had a dignified appearance, and a terrifying aura surged within him.
"It's you?"
The Night Emperor's pupils contracted. The person who appeared was actually Wang Xiu?
Didn't he leave?
When did he come behind him?
No, when did he stand on that summoning platform?
He was shocked to the extreme and was momentarily stunned.
Wang Xiu's dark hair danced wildly, and divine light filled the summoning platform. Boundless power surged and receded. His lifespan was rapidly declining at an astonishing speed, his black hair visibly turning white, but his eyes were incredibly determined, and his seals changed.
He spoke the true words, "I go to Yellow Springs to gather my old subordinates, ten thousand banners behead the Yama!"
"In the name of the Underworld Emperor, I request the presence of the Three Purities ancestors, the ancient sages of the human race!"
"Exterminate demons!"
"Suppress bandits!"
As his words fell, in an instant,
A majestic and boundless image of the Underworld Emperor appeared behind Wang Xiu, like a god who controlled life and death.
That aura was astonishing.
Even the Night Emperor trembled and dared not approach.
At the same time,
Above the entire Sea Demon Island, lightning flashed and thunder roared, chaotic qi descended, and endless sparks floated up from the seawater, descended from the clouds, and emerged from the moonlight, vast and mighty.
It was like a silhouette of time and space, with shouts and killings shaking the heavens.
The battlefield from a thousand years ago was reproduced at this moment.
Powerful figures reappeared in the river of time, each one extremely formidable, causing people to tremble.
"Soul returns—"
"Soul returns—"
These soft words were like ancient gods murmuring.
Resounding in countless people's ears.
Everyone was dumbfounded, standing there foolishly, shocked by this scene.
"Soul returns—"
Those figures became more and more numerous, more and more distinct, like a mighty army, filled with killing intent. Each one was incredibly powerful, making people tremble.
