Chapter 270: Sudden Change in Battle, Fighting to the End! Ancestral Sacrifice, Boundless Power (Part 1)
"Heaven and Earth Separation Array?"
Song Ru couldn't help but exclaim, "Just from the name, we can tell that this formation is no ordinary one. It must be incredibly powerful!"
"It's not bad."
Fan Jianqiang chuckled and explained, "In fact, it utilizes special means and materials to forcibly separate that space from this 'heaven and earth' and place it within an 'alternate dimension'."
"Moreover, the spatial laws within are in complete 'chaos', and no matter what they do, they cannot reach the formation's eye. Therefore, unless the Ninth Stage cultivators inside the formation 'overload' it, there is no way to break the formation from within."
"As for those outside..."
"As I mentioned earlier, that space has been separated from this heaven and earth and exists in an alternate dimension. Naturally, those in this world cannot influence the alternate dimension, so there's no need to worry about them breaking the formation from the outside."
Heaven and Earth...
In other words, it's a 'world'!
Forcibly separating a small part and temporarily 'storing' it in an alternate dimension.
This formation has no 'offensive capabilities'.
Nor does it have any mesmerizing effects.
However, its ability to trap enemies is astonishingly effective.
It was for this reason that Gou Sheng was so confident.
"Next, it's up to the Jiang family and the other group members."
"After all, we've done all we can."
Lin Fan nodded, "Not bad."
"But, there's still something we can do."
He took out his Barrett and, as he mounted the gun, looked at Song Ru, "It's too dangerous for you to act now, but you can wait for the right opportunity. In the middle to late stages, if there's a chance, try to take down a few more enemies."
"At least we can earn some more 'quest points'."
"Mhm!" Song Ru nodded heavily, his gaze at Fan Jianqiang becoming increasingly complex.
You little...!!!
You said that the previous formation wasn't set up by you?
And that you couldn't set it up yourself?
You can even create such a bizarre formation like the Heaven and Earth Separation Array, which no one has ever heard of. Is there any formation you can't create? I'm starting to believe your lies!
As for Su Yan, he remained calm.
The group quest rules clearly state that the 'merits' earned by the helpers will also be counted towards the leader.
Emptying the An Family's First Treasury and capturing two Ninth Stage cultivators...
What great achievements are these?
The quest points will surely be abundant, and when the time comes, he will soar to new heights!
...
"Where are they?!"
The Jiang and An family members were all shocked.
The sudden 'mysterious disappearance' of the two Seventh Uncles startled everyone, leaving them confused about the situation.
The two Ninth Stage cultivators who had been besieging Jiang Shang suddenly retreated, attempting to contact and rescue the missing elders, but to no avail. They couldn't find any trace of them!
They couldn't even establish contact.
"What?!"
"Damn it!"
The two elders shouted angrily, "You two good-for-nothings, where have you taken our Seventh Uncles?"
"Don't be ridiculous!"
"How can I possibly know?"
Jiang Kun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, almost laughing out loud.
You're joking, right?
In a life-and-death battle, it's not easy for someone to come to your aid and temporarily get rid of your two Ninth Stage elders, and you're asking us where we took them?
Even if we didn't know, there's no way we would tell you even if we did.
But...
What kind of methods did those 'fellow cultivators' use? It's simply unimaginable!
"Fine, if you won't tell, then we'll fight until you do!"
The two elders were furious.
However...
It was originally a four-on-two battle, but now it had become a two-on-two fight.
Even though Jiang Kun and his partner had suffered significant injuries earlier and were at a disadvantage, they couldn't maintain their advantage in the short term, let alone capture the two elders.
This made them secretly anxious.
...
Above, the battle between An Lan and Jiang Taixu became even more intense.
An Lan no longer pretended...
Because he realized that after Jiang Taixu's full eruption, he truly had the qualifications to threaten him, and he needed to be cautious in his response, or else he might capsize in the gutter.
However, the mysterious disappearance of the two Seventh Uncles and his inability to find any trace of them also made him feel a sense of unease.
"Marvelous!"
Boom! The Crimson Peak Spear descended, tearing through the Nine Heavens.
Jiang Taixu was forced to retreat.
An Lan spoke coldly, "There are still those who dare to aid your Jiang family, ignorant of their impending death."
"Which force are they from?"
"The Ten Thousand Formation Island of the South Sea?"
Upon hearing An Lan's words, Jiang Taixu's expression remained unchanged, and he was as calm as ever.
But...
Among the onlookers in the distance, some were no longer calm.
Their eyes widened, their scalps tingled, and their hair stood on end.
"We're right here!"
Several powerful cultivators emerged, all wearing the same uniform, their faces filled with anxiety. They quickly transmitted their voices, "Clan Leader An Lan, we, the cultivators of Ten Thousand Formation Island from the South Sea, are here. But this matter has nothing to do with us, nothing to do with us!!!"
"Yes, Clan Leader An Lan, this matter has absolutely no connection to our Ten Thousand Formation Island. We can swear an oath to prove our innocence."
"That formation, it wasn't us!"
They were truly anxious, almost on the verge of tears.
What merits or abilities does our Ten Thousand Formation Island possess for you to hold us in such high regard, An Lan? But, we ourselves don't even know how powerful we are, right? We can't even see the slightest clue about that formation, and we have no idea what's going on.
But... you seem to hold us in high esteem.
Damn it, we haven't seen a shred of good fortune, but this huge mess has been directly dumped on our heads! If we don't clarify this immediately, Ten Thousand Formation Island might be completely destroyed after this battle, leaving no one behind.
We must clarify this at once.
At this moment, they were almost in tears.
However, in the face of their pleas and surrender, An Lan merely glanced at them indifferently and said, "Then let me see your sincerity."
"Break the formation within an hour and release my clan members, or Ten Thousand Formation Island will no longer have a reason to exist.
"What the—?!"
Damn it!
Everyone from Wan Zhen Island was dumbfounded.
Holy shit!
We've made it clear that this has nothing to do with us, and we're even willing to swear a heavenly oath. Isn't this enough to prove our sincerity?
You want us to break the formation? We'll break your grandpa's formation, damn it! It's completely beyond our comprehension; how can we possibly understand it? And what does this have to do with us?
They cursed furiously in their minds, but dared not show the slightest hint of it on their faces. All they could do was hesitate...
"What's wrong?"
"You don't want to?"
Do we even have a choice?
Is that even a reasonable request?
Unfortunately, the situation was stronger than their will, and they had no choice but to back down.
The Island Master of Wan Zhen Island's face turned dark, and he could only grit his teeth and say, "This... this, Clan Leader An Lan, we can assure you, and we're even willing to swear a heavenly oath, that we will do our best."
"But whether we can break the formation or release the noble cultivators, we can't guarantee."
An Lan was satisfied with this promise.
After all, it wouldn't be good to push them too far.
As long as they give it their all, that's enough.
Wan Zhen Island's expertise in formation arts was undoubtedly the best in this realm, and if even they couldn't handle it, then it was likely that no one else could.
Gaining a group of tools out of nowhere was a pretty good outcome.
However...
This Jiang family sure has some tricks up their sleeves to create such a formation!
An Lan frowned slightly, just as he was about to agree, but then he heard Jiang Taixu laugh, "Haha, do you Wan Zhen Island cultivators think that the An family is untouchable, and our Jiang family is just a clay sculpture or a soft persimmon?"
"This matter has nothing to do with you, yet you want to help the An family. Aren't you afraid that after the An family is destroyed, our Jiang family will come after you for revenge?"
"This..."
The people of Wan Zhen Island were stunned.
Who wouldn't be afraid of that?
But what can we do? We're just 'mortals' compared to you all. What can we possibly do?
They felt extremely helpless.
An Lan burst into laughter, "I, An Lan, am invincible in this world. The An family is also the best in the world. What can a small family like yours do?"
"Your An family is indeed strong, but at this moment, the gap between us is not that significant." Jiang Taixu was full of confidence, "Who will win in the end is still uncertain."
"If Wan Zhen Island is smart, you should just stay out of this."
"If you're even smarter, you should help our Jiang family instead."
"Otherwise..."
"You know the consequences."
They were threatened by both sides.
The people of Wan Zhen Island were speechless, but at the same time, they felt utterly helpless.
The power gap was right there.
Even if they wanted to resist, they didn't have the ability to do so.
This...
What should they do? One side is telling me to act, and the other is telling me to back off... You're making me so anxious!
Seeing their hesitation, An Lan immediately frowned.
He knew the problem was that the whereabouts and safety of the two ninth-stage cultivators, including Seventh Uncle, were unknown, and both sides had the same number of ninth-stage cultivators, which made the people of Wan Zhen Island hesitant to choose a side...
But... Idiots!
Don't they know that I, An Lan, am a member of the Imperial Clan, and alone, I am invincible? If not for the fact that I need to support my clan's Imperial City, what is Jiang Taixu to me?
He frowned.
But the Imperial City couldn't be abandoned, and An Lan had only one choice.
"I, An Lan, am invincible in this world. The An family is also the best in the world. What can a small family like yours do?"
"Attack!"
With a single command.
Boom!
Within the territory of the An family, a divine light suddenly appeared.
Another ninth-stage cultivator had emerged!
The An family had not five, but six ninth-stage cultivators!
He hadn't been in the ninth stage for long, only the first level, but he was indeed a genuine ninth-stage cultivator.
His sudden appearance caught the Jiang family off guard, and in an instant, they suffered heavy losses, with several eighth-stage cultivators being killed by him, and his ferocity only grew!
At the same time, An Lan merely glanced at the people of Wan Zhen Island, causing their spines to chill and their hearts to freeze.
This was a threat!
They were in extreme pain, and after discussing in secret, they still felt they should take action.
After all, An Lan was too strong, and the An family had another ninth-stage cultivator... But just as they were preparing to find a way to break the formation, another change occurred!
The newly emerged ninth-stage cultivator from the An family was unleashing his power, slaughtering the Jiang family members.
The Jiang family members were both shocked and furious, and Jiang Kun's eyes widened, as they immediately rushed out to stop him, but they were restrained and held back by their opponents, not giving them a chance to go and help.
"Hmph, Jiang family, you dare to oppose my clan?"
"You're asking for death!"
The ninth-stage cultivator from the An family sneered.
He continued to attack, but suddenly, another change occurred!
In the crowd, two seemingly insignificant eighth-stage cultivators suddenly increased their speed, and in just a moment, they had a speed that was even faster than many ninth-stage cultivators!
And because they were so close, as soon as they surged forward, they had already reached the sides of the powerful ninth-stage cultivator from the An family, and attacked at the same time.
Their offense was astonishing, with the might to destroy heaven and earth!
The ninth-stage cultivator from the An family was instantly shocked and furious, "Damn it, you're not eighth-stage cultivators, and you're not from the Jiang family."
"Who are you...?"
Before he could finish his sentence, both sides had already clashed and erupted into a fierce conflict! Boom!
The two ninth-stage cultivators unleashed their power.
As ninth-stage cultivators with 'external assistance', their strength was far beyond that of the newly emerged ninth-stage cultivator from the An family. Any one of them could suppress and kill him.
At this moment, the two of them working together, and launching a close-range surprise attack, the gap was extremely outrageous!
Puchi!!!
In just the instant they clashed, the ninth-stage cultivator from the An family was torn apart, his body split into three!!!
"Save me!!!"
He cried out in shock.
Even his divine sense was wailing.
But it was useless.
Waiting for him were two Ninth Stage group members with their unique annihilation methods.
They instantly annihilated his physical body, causing him to completely lose his 'activity', trapping his divine sense within his body. Then, they summoned a special furnace and threw his head, along with his divine soul, into it.
Boom!
The furnace instantly blazed, drowning out his miserable screams.
......
This sudden change happened too fast.
It was an unexpected turn of events for everyone in the An family.
Even the majority of the Jiang family members didn't know what was happening or who these people were!
Moreover, their strength was overwhelming. In the blink of an eye, they had annihilated the An family's Ninth Stage member and were about to completely destroy him!
It must be known that the Ninth Stage is so powerful because they have begun to absorb and refine immortal energy, using it to nourish their bodies and divine sense.
This is a huge difference.
It's like the gap between immortals and mortals.
After being nourished by immortal energy, the body and divine sense become a hundred times stronger. Even if they are both at the Ninth Stage, it would be very difficult to completely defeat and annihilate the other party.
But these people were so swift that even their divine sense was sealed, and they were going to be completely annihilated.
This shocked everyone from the An family!
"Damn it!!!"
The two Ninth Stage members who had been entangled with Jiang Kun and Jiang Shang were furious and immediately flew over to rescue them.
But the situation reversed in an instant.
Just now, they were the ones entangled with Jiang Kun and Jiang Shang.
Now, it was Jiang Kun and Jiang Shang who were holding them back, preventing them from escaping and forcing them to continue fighting.
......
"Wait!"
Seeing this, all the onlookers were shocked. The Island Master of Wan Zhen Island suddenly blocked the other high-ranking members of Wan Zhen Island who were about to take action, whispering, "There's another change!"
"This battle..."
"We cannot get involved."
"Something is off with the Jiang family. The An family is likely to suffer a huge loss, and we cannot offend the Jiang family!"
"But what about the An family..."
"We have to offend one of them. Why offend the Jiang family, who currently has the upper hand and keeps revealing their trump cards?"
Before the others could respond, another change occurred! Four people from the Jiang family's territory soared into the sky, quickly forming a special formation and unleashing formidable power within a short time, reaping through the crowd! An family's Eighth Stage Sevenfold Cultivator was killed as if dumplings were being dropped.
At the Eighth Stage Apex, they were like fish in water, slaughtering without restraint!
Boom!
At the same time, a small sun suddenly 'exploded'.
An An family's Eighth Stage Triple Level Great Power, who was helping his fellow clansmen heal, was instantly annihilated along with the Great Power assisting him, leaving not even a strand of hair.
This scene shocked everyone watching.
......
"Good, very good."
An Lan and Jiang Taixu's battle continued, but at this moment, he couldn't keep up the act.
The current situation was changing rapidly.
The An family, which had initially held the advantage, was now at a complete disadvantage and even on the brink of collapse!
The Eighth Stage's advantage was gradually reversed.
The Ninth Stage...
was even more so!
It was originally a four-on-two battle.
Now... it's still four against two.
It has just become a four-on-one and one-on-one situation!
Jiang Kun restrained one of the opponents.
The others joined forces to suppress the other Ninth Stage member of the An family...
but in just an instant, he was on the brink of collapse.
As for the Eighth Stage...
Boom!
As this thought arose.
A giant golden sword, shimmering with immortal energy, suddenly appeared in the air and slashed towards the An family's Seventh Stage battlefield...
"There's also an Imperial Armament?"
"Who is this?"
An Lan was stunned!
He finally confirmed that there was something wrong with this battle!
It was completely different from what he had imagined.
It was even beyond his control.
If this continued, the An family might be completely annihilated!
"You all deserve to die."
An Lan was enraged.
He made up his mind and stopped holding up the Imperial City with his left hand. Instead, he let the city fall with a loud crash onto the 'Four Pole Immortal Array', causing the two clan territories to play a 'dizzying melody' in mid-air.
At the same time, he held a shield in his left hand and a spear in his right, and his combat power surged to its peak in this moment.
Boom!
An Lan's battle intent surged, and he charged towards Jiang Taixu.
Jiang Taixu's expression turned solemn, and he dared not be the slightest bit careless, exerting all his strength.
"Hmph!"
An Lan's voice was cold, his eyes filled with determination, "Let me show you the power of the Crimson Peak Spear and the Immortal Shield, capable of slaying Immortal Kings and dominating the Nine Heavens."
"And let it serve as a warning to the world of what it means to be invincible."
"Kill!"
Buzz!
The Immortal Shield trembled, filling the sky with golden light, forcefully blocking all of Jiang Taixu's attacks and continuously closing in on him.
His right hand gathered power!
The Crimson Peak Spear trembled, and the power within it was terrifying.
"Suck~"
Jiang Taixu took a deep breath, knowing that he couldn't hesitate any longer and had to stop An Lan, or the battle might turn around again!
"Sword of Mass Destruction!"
"Pagoda Sword Technique!"
He unleashed his ultimate Sword Dao, confronting An Lan head-on.
"Ridiculous!"
An Lan scoffed.
The Crimson Peak Spear thrust forward with a boom.
It was just a simple thrust, but it seemed to pierce through time and space, even threatening to penetrate the entire 'universe' with its terror.
Boom!!!
A tiny point of cold light shone with dazzling brilliance.
It was just the tip of the spear, but at this moment, it was as if the entire world had condensed into that single point, becoming the only thing in existence.
"!!!"
A clash of equals!
In this strike, both sides gave it their all, and for a moment, the entire world fell into a 'silence', as if the heavens themselves had been stunned into silence.
