Chapter 612: One Man Forms a Formation
Chapter 612: One Man Forms a Formation
"..."
Prince Ziyang remained seated, his fingertips rapidly tapping on the table, clearly agitated.
From their previous conversation, Shen Yi appeared to be meticulous and extremely patient, and his greatest advantage was his youth and the abundance of time.
Prince Ziyang was curious about what methods Shen Yi would use to obtain the second Dragon Seal.
However, Prince Ziyang never expected Shen Yi to choose the simplest and most brutal approach. He had seemed confident, but now he was like a reckless gambler.
If he had known this, he would never have agreed to cooperate.
At the very least, with Shen Yi's strength, how could he guarantee the killing of Qi Shengtao, who was entrenched in the Dragon Cavern? And within such a short time, how could he fulfill his promise to deal with the Demon Palace?
Without any preparation and without consulting Prince Ziyang, Shen Yi arrived with a swagger.
And he even brought Ye Jiu and the others.
To be honest, Prince Ziyang truly disliked those who gambled with others' lives for their own future.
Crack! Crack!
At that moment, a dull sound interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Shen Yi's boot stomped down viciously, and Qi Zhaowen's mouth suddenly gaped wide. Blood clogged his throat, and his entire body was shattered by the force of heaven and earth. His hand, which had desperately clung to the broken stairs in an attempt to crawl before his father, finally slipped down powerlessly.
He wanted to say something, but his mind was filled with thoughts of the prince, and his life was snuffed out in an instant by the stomping boot.
"Katch... Katch..."
The sound of coughing up blood gradually weakened.
Qi Zhaowen's death made everyone in the hall realize something.
This leader of the Nanyang Sect was not here to negotiate or hold the Dragon Prince hostage. The life of the Second Prince was a declaration of war.
From the moment this group entered the hall, they were prepared for an all-out battle!
"You are truly fearless."
If Qi Zhaowen had still been under Shen Yi's feet, the Western Dragon King might have hesitated. But now, this young man had personally released him from all restraints.
Two princes with the potential to become heirs had died one after the other.
The Western Dragon King couldn't understand who had given them the courage to stand before him and kill his sons.
What was even more incomprehensible was that after his years of entrenchment, the Western Dragon Palace had already taken deep root, and his minions were spread throughout the land and water.
Even if this person was insane, how could he have entered his palace?
Was he underestimating the king's age and the strength of his minions? Let's see... Let's see if the Western Flood is still under the king's control!
Qi Shengtao extended his dragon claw, removed his crown, and raised his head high, exhaling a long dragon breath. His fangs began to grow rapidly, and the dull scales regained their silver shine.
As the dragon whiskers fluttered, the two silver horns, resembling a deer's antlers, shone brightly! The aura of a perfect Heaven Realm swept through the hall, causing the entire palace to tremble slightly.
After truly sensing this aura, Ye Jiu and Qi Yan Sheng's faces changed slightly. Since Senior Brother Qin's death, there had been no cultivator in the entire Southern Flood with a similar level of strength, and they had never seen the Southern Dragon King empowered by the Dragon Cavern.
Until now, standing before such a powerful opponent and facing his killing intent, they gained a clearer understanding of this realm.
However, the truly terrifying fact was that Qi Shengtao had not yet used the power of the Dragon Cavern.
The next moment, the entire water area suddenly froze.
Without any unnecessary words, a straightforward and brutal punch was thrown.
The silver dragon's body disappeared from its original location, and its rough dragon claw fiercely struck towards Shen Yi's face.
The cultivator, with the aid of the sacred land, had mastered the power of Fusion Dao.
The surging demon blood of the demon race was like a rushing river, and their eyes were like the sun and moon in the sky. Their limbs and bones were like continuous mountains, and they inherently possessed a power comparable to a small heaven!
As this punch was thrown.
With the Western Dragon Palace as the center, the frozen water suddenly split apart with a loud noise, swirling upwards like a celestial river descending.
Ye Jiu's flowing light longsword burst into an unprecedented buzzing sound, while Qi Yan Sheng quickly blocked in front of Ji Jingxi. The Purple-Gold Sacred Mountain hung at his heart, resembling a pebble tossed about by the river, causing his body to retreat several steps.
Prince Ziyang reacted swiftly, grabbing his sister and raising his palm to block the aftermath.
At the same time, his eyelids twitched, and he became increasingly skeptical about the outcome of today's events.
This old dragon's strength was even greater than he had imagined, and it seemed that these years of comfort had not diminished his power. If he could also use the power of the Dragon Cavern, he would be infinitely close to the Dao Realm and would not be weaker than Qin Jiaoyang.
He was no longer concerned about whether Shen Yi would succeed today.
Instead, he was hesitating about whether to intervene and at what cost to protect this young genius.
"..."
Facing the punch of the Perfect Heaven Realm Jade Horned Silver Dragon.
Shen Yi stood with his hands by his sides, unmoving. When the massive fist was less than ten feet away from him, he finally sidestepped, but not to dodge.
He raised his arm, striking with his elbow!
The wide black sleeves of his robe fluttered like a flag torn by a raging wind, as if it would be completely shredded in the next breath.
But the elbow beneath the sleeve remained unyielding.
Both were battered by the surging waves, and Qi Yan Sheng's Purple-Gold Sacred Mountain was like a pebble, but at this moment, Shen Yi was more like a towering mountain.
No matter the wind or rain, they couldn't move him an inch.
The waters that had been churned up were suppressed by an invisible mighty force within a breath, turning into a torrential downpour and falling back into the Western Flood.
The Divine Mountain suppressed the Blue Sky.
In this piece of heaven and earth, no one could stir up wind or waves.
Two ancient dragon soul shadows, like golden silk, covered this thin body. Shen Yi stared at the enormous dragon head of the Western Dragon King, which was within arm's reach. The vast power surged and roared between his fist and elbow, yet neither of them retreated even half a step.
At this stalemate moment in the struggle.
He slowly turned his head, "Please, seniors, help Shen Yi guard the four directions and not let a single living soul escape."
"..."
Ye Jiu held a flowing light longsword and was about to unleash his third divine ability when he heard these words and fell silent.
Damn, their Shen Sect Leader is really taking advice.
Last time, he said that the other party liked to act alone, making the Southern Seven Sects feel insignificant. This time, he brought us along... Damn it, he's using Qi Shengtao's life to gain the Eastern Dragon Palace's support.
"When facing me, you dare to be distracted!"
The aged Jade Horned Silver Dragon roared, saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth. Red demon energy leaked from the gaps in its silver scales, forming an impenetrable heavy armor. Its body remained agile, and its fists fell like a raging storm.
It could no longer stir up the wind and rain in the Western Flood, for the majestic aura contained in each punch was all poured onto the 'Divine Mountain' that suppressed the Blue Sky.
Facing this fierce attack, Shen Yi's eyes were gray and serene, as if seeing through everything. The Golden Patterned Dark Saber was held in his palm, blocking the dragon claws with the blade and supporting the blade with his left arm.
The terrifying fist of the Western Dragon King could tear the sky, but it couldn't make this long saber bend even a hair.
The Demon Emperor's weapon, formed by the convergence of countless demon lives, finally revealed its true power in front of a perfect Heaven Realm dragon demon.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Each collision felt like a drumbeat striking Zi Yang's heart. He knew that Shen Yi had countless ways to avoid these fists and palms, but the opponent chose to confront them head-on, not retreating a step, showing off his skills.
"I'll give you a day and a night."
Zi Yang could have left in silence, but for some reason, he left a sentence before taking his sister and flying out of the hall.
Sure enough, at the moment he heard these words, the originally furious Western Dragon King fell into a brief daze, followed by widened eyes and another roar, "Zi Yang! You dare to betray the Dragon Palace!"
It was as if he had received a tremendous shock.
At the base of the entire hall, wisps of silver-white mist rose, infusing into the Western Dragon King's body.
Its two dragon horns transformed into flowing light and fell into its palms, condensing into a pair of frosty white longswords. The aura on its body also began to rapidly approach a terrifying and unfamiliar realm.
No matter how many schemes you have..."
"No matter how you collude with the Eastern Dragon Palace..."
"This Western Flood is still my Western Flood!"
Finally, Qi Shengtao utilized the power of the Dragon Cavern, feeling the surging Demon Energy that he hadn't experienced in a long time.
He brandished his saber fiercely, and two enormous Jade Horned Silver Dragon shadows spiraled and roared out, occupying the entire hall. In an instant, the Dragon Palace, nurtured by dragon energy for many years, was destroyed!
Almost everything was obliterated in the blink of an eye.
This was a mighty power that was almost akin to the Dao.
In all of Hongze, only three people had reached the pinnacle of the Fusion Dao realm, and with these three not present, Qi Shengtao was virtually invincible.
"Get out of the way!"
Even though this saber strike wasn't aimed at the three Southern Flood Sect Leaders.
But Qi Yan Sheng reacted swiftly, pushing out the Purple-Gold Sacred Mountain, which transformed into a thousand-zhang-high thick stone wall, attempting to block it for a moment.
However, before the dragon shadow even arrived, the stone wall began to tremble and shake, and the purple-gold mountain body, like fragile glass, cracked open.
Fortunately, a golden dragon soul leaped out in advance, facing the storm and swelling, it ferociously bit down on the silver dragon's neck, clearly both were manifestations of energy, yet they seemed like real, vicious creatures, fiercely fighting!
As the dragon tail lashed, it took the opportunity to send the three Sect Leaders out.
"Wait—"
Ye Jiu stared intently at the dragon soul, knowing that Shen Yi relied on this divine ability to confront the Western Dragon King head-on. Now, with the dragon soul leaving his body, Shen Yi was facing those two long sabers directly!
Everyone thought of this, and they turned back in shock.
At the same time, they also heard Qi Shengtao's sinister laughter in their ears.
Under the cover of the Jade Horned Silver Dragon shadow, his robust dragon body, clad in crimson heavy armor, had quietly appeared above Shen Yi.
A pair of frosty white long sabers, carrying the power to overturn rivers and seas, slashed down heavily!
"Die for me!"
Without the protection of the Azure Dragon Essence Body, Shen Yi, only bolstered by the Divine Mountain Suppressing Blue Sky, suddenly appeared a bit frail under the twin sabers.
He lightly raised his palm, as if intending to catch the saber with his fleshly palm.
His slender five fingers spread out.
The two long sabers hovered eerily in the air.
In his palm, a peach blossom formed by a point of light quietly bloomed, slowly rotating.
Shen Yi stared at the Western Dragon King's blood-red eyes, shaking his head seriously, "No."
With his words, he casually shook his palm.
The peach blossom instantly rose, expanding at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, covering nearly the entire water body, and in the dark depths, it transformed into a clear starry sky.
Greedy Wolf Star Constellation Annihilation Array!
This was a famous Immortal Array in Hongze, and it wasn't strange to see it appear on a "Boundless Dao Emperor Sect's wicked disciple."
However, Ji Jingxi and the others were completely stunned.
They had witnessed Shen Yi emerge from the Nanyang Treasure Land, so they were certain he had no connection with the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect.
But for such an Immortal Array, not to mention obtaining it from elsewhere, even if it were a genuine disciple of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect, only a Branch Sect Leader could have access to it... No, to be precise, even a Branch Sect Leader wouldn't be able to obtain the complete array diagram.
Apart from that.
The Purple Yang Prince, who was guarding outside the hall, also looked towards the Greedy Wolf Star Chart in the sky with disbelief.
Even if it were an Immortal Chart, to affect a Half-Step Heaven Realm cultivator, how many high-level cultivators would be needed?
He scanned his surroundings as if he had seen a ghost.
None! Not a single one!
The surroundings were empty, and there wasn't a trace of any living being's aura.
Shen Yi didn't have any communication treasure for controlling the array either.
"One... one person formed the array?"
The scene before him undoubtedly shattered Zi Yang's understanding.
Even as the Eastern Dragon Palace Prince, he had never seen such an uncanny situation!
"Huff."
Shen Yi's body slowly floated up, and he unbuttoned his collar, adjusting his breathing while gazing down at the numerous dragon demons enveloped by the grand array below, his eyes landing on Qi Shengtao's solemn face.
It wasn't a case of one person forming the array.
The reason he felt this Greedy Wolf Star Chart was so suitable for him, and he was willing to pay the price of nearly being driven mad to cultivate it, was because he could place the array stones in his Sea of Consciousness... in his Ten Thousand Demon Hall!
At this moment, led by Ke Shisan, who had reached the Perfect Heaven Realm, along with the three Palace Masters except for Wu Jun, and the Cold Mountain Ancestor, a total of five Heaven Realm array stones, and the rest were all filled by the strongest Earth Realm cultivators, making up a total of seventeen.
This was how the current grand array was formed! Of course, the price Shen Yi paid to complete this array was losing control over the Western Flood.
"These are on me."
He glanced to the side and bowed slightly, "As for the rest, I'll have to trouble the seniors."
This was the most critical step, and it was also the only time Shen Yi entrusted his life to others after leaving Hongze.
