บท 53: Chapter 53: The Four Spirit Array!
At this moment, even Earth Demon Old Ghost, with his Seven-Star Dou Zong cultivation, was having trouble dealing with the sky-high magma.
All three elders of his Demon Flame Valley were inside. Under such a formidable force, even though these few had peak Dou Huang cultivation, Earth Demon Old Ghost wasn't entirely confident they could come out unscathed.
Damn, is he destined to be alone in the future?
Within the endless magma, ripples began to form, erupting bubbles. Suddenly, a violent fluctuation emerged from the center. As time passed, the commotion grew louder and louder.
Seeing this situation, Earth Demon Old Ghost's expression relaxed slightly, his eyes brightened!
Is there hope?
"Boom——"
With a series of muffled sounds, several disheveled figures shot out from the magma. They were none other than Han Feng and the others who had just entered the passage.
At this moment, they were all in a sorry state, with varying degrees of burns on their bodies, their auras weak, and even a few had perished underground.
Died in confusion!
This time, the grand explosion meticulously planned by Jiang Yun harnessed the energy of the magma that had existed underground in the Black-Corner Region for countless years, resulting in such an immense power that even Dou Zong experts were threatened.
Now, Mo Tianxing, who was still alive, had eyes red as a wounded beast, staring fiercely at Han Feng. He roared, "Han Feng, what did you do underground? Or is it that this was all a plot by your Han Yao Sect to wipe us out?"
If anyone was in the most pain at this moment, it was undoubtedly Mo Tianxing. His son, Mo Ya, was completely killed in this explosion, along with the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect, Qi Shan.
One could say, his Black Emperor Sect had suffered a significant blow; twenty years of effort had been ruined. Not tearing Han Feng apart on the spot was already a testament to his rationality.
Hearing Mo Tianxing's words, the remaining Gold and Silver Elders, Fang Yan, Tung Tie, and others also looked at Han Feng with suspicion.
This time, they indeed suffered a huge loss. They didn't even get a glimpse of the Heavenly Flame and had to endure this disaster. They were all fuming inside, needing someone to vent their anger on.
"Mo Sect Leader suspects me?"
"Mo Sect Leader, you overestimate Han. To trigger the entire underground world, I don't have that capability. Besides, that so-called Heavenly Flame underground was just a decoy. We were played!"
Han Feng suppressed his anger, coldly looking at everyone. You feel aggrieved? Do you think I'm feeling any better?
Who can understand this feeling of having hope turn into despair?
"This is just your claim. How do you prove it's true?" Even if Han Feng's words made sense, Mo Tianxing still wanted to pin the blame on him, hoping to incite everyone against him. A Seven-Tier alchemist's collection should be enough to make up for this loss.
Mo Tianxing indeed was a schemer. Having just experienced the pain of losing his son, he immediately began to think of his own benefits.
"What do you want?" Han Feng realized that this old fox Mo Tianxing was trying to extort him. But he wasn't easy to bully either; Mo Tianxing might have picked the wrong target.
"All of this started because of you. Now that we've all suffered losses, each sect should receive three Seven-Tier pills. Only then can this matter be settled. Otherwise..."
Mo Tianxing's intentions were clear now. Devious as he was, he brought everyone into the matter, ensuring that Han Feng had no way out.
Fang Yan, the Gold and Silver Elders, Tung Tie, and others were somewhat tempted. Seven-Tier pills were highly alluring!
Moreover, if they missed this chance, they might never get another.
Should they...
At this moment, everyone's actions were faster than their thoughts, silently blocking Han Feng's escape route.
Such behavior darkened Han Feng's expression even more.
"Enough, are the renowned experts of the Black-Corner Region on the Blacklist so petty? You only turn on your own when facing great enemies. Even your ancestors would be ashamed!"
Just as Fang Yan and the others were about to force a deal out of greed, an ancient voice, as if piercing through space, thundered from the sky, resonating like the roar of heavenly thunder.
The thunderous shout echoed through the forest, lingering like a Brahma sound, shaking people's souls.
"That's...ancestor's voice, Ancestor, you're finally here!" Fang Yan was almost in tears. After he awakened the Earth Demon Ancestor, the latter had them proceed first.
But unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, the three-person team was reduced to one, almost bringing him to tears.
Han Feng and the others were visibly alarmed. The legendary powerhouse of the previous generation had also emerged?
From the horizon, the sound of breaking wind suddenly rang out. In the blink of an eye, Earth Demon Old Ghost appeared before everyone.
"Earth Demon Old Ghost!"
"Ancestor——" The appearance of Earth Demon Old Ghost gave Fang Yan a backbone, causing him to kneel immediately in front of him.
"Shameful wretch, didn't even realize you were being played, disgracing Demon Flame Valley!"
"What——"
"Earth Demon Ancestor, what do you mean by that?"
Hearing Earth Demon Old Ghost's words, everyone was taken aback. Were they being played?
"What do I mean?" Earth Demon Old Ghost's eyes suddenly turned cold. With a flick of his fingers, five sharp strands of Dou Qi shot from his fingertips, fiercely bursting towards a hidden bush in the distance, "I mean...Canaan Academy rats, come out for some air!"
As the five frigid beams of light shot out, a figure suddenly flickered into view. A surge of overwhelming momentum erupted like a volcano, dissipating the sharp beams of Dou Qi.
Su Qian's figure slightly trembled, then he let out a muffled groan, retreating a few steps. He had already suffered a loss in the initial exchange.
Seven-Star Dou Zong, terrifying indeed!
Seeing Su Qian, Han Feng and the others' expressions turned ugly. Su Qian's appearance confirmed that this was all a ploy by Canaan Academy. They had been played like fools.
"You are Su Qian, correct?" Earth Demon Old Ghost glanced at Su Qian, "I didn't expect you to reach Dou Zong. When I last saw you, you were just a peak Dou Huang elder."
"But even if you are a Dou Zong now, you shouldn't have provoked Demon Flame Valley."
Su Qian's face darkened, "Earth Demon Old Ghost, today, Canaan Academy will eliminate you, our great scourge!"
"Just you?" Earth Demon Old Ghost swept his sleeves, glancing around at the approaching Hu Gan and others, coldly laughing, "Just four newly advanced Dou Zongs and a Three-Star Dou Zong? If you want to take the Ancestor's life, call Ma Tian Chi."
"Canaan Academy has five Dou Zongs now? When did they advance?" Seeing Canaan Academy reveal five Dou Zongs, Han Feng and the others' expressions changed.
They secretly felt relieved. If Earth Demon Old Ghost hadn't arrived, they might have been doomed. Now, well...
They cast amused glances at Su Qian.
Su Qian probably didn't anticipate this situation either. This is called failing in your schemes and suffering losses.
Hearing this, Su Qian's face revealed a cold smile, "Earth Demon Old Ghost, saying that when our Principal is in the inner courtyard, would you still dare show up?"
Earth Demon Old Ghost's eyes flashed with viciousness at Su Qian's mocking words; "Fine, fine, fine. Canaan Academy, you're all so sharp-tongued. Today, even if Ma Tian Chi comes, the Ancestor will tear you apart."
"Elders, form the array!"
As his words fell, Su Qian formed a complex hand seal. Simultaneously, Hu Gan and others also changed their hand seals. Suddenly, the energy of heaven and earth surged, and a massive array diagram slowly appeared above them.
"Not good!" Feeling this powerful energy, Earth Demon Old Ghost's expression changed for the first time.
"Ice Spike!"
With a low shout, a surge of pitch-black cold air burst forth from his body. The cold air quickly solidified and shattered into countless ice shards with a crisp sound.
Earth Demon Old Ghost moved his ten fingers, and dense black ice spikes shot out in all directions towards the five people.
Unfazed, the five swiftly formed seals with their hands, causing the massive array to emit a dazzling light.
"Heaven and Earth Four Spirits, Gather!"
With a loud shout from the four leading the array, four beams of brilliant light appeared between heaven and earth.
A terrifying pressure spread across the area.
"Roar——"
With a deafening roar, a blood-colored giant tiger appeared behind Wu Tianlang, stepping through the air.
The white tiger swiped a paw, and with a "boom——" the ice spikes instantly shattered, turning into countless ice crystals that scattered across the sky.
"What——" Seeing his attack thwarted, Earth Demon Old Ghost's face darkened. The array's power exceeded his expectations.
"What a formidable array. How does Canaan Academy have such depth?" Han Feng muttered in a low voice, his face grim after witnessing the earlier scene.
At that moment, with the appearance of the White Tiger, it seemed like a switch was flipped.
A clear and bright cry echoed, and Elder Nan's corner ignited a fiery red giant bird.
When it appeared, the temperature of the entire area soared instantly, causing even the air to distort.
Following that, the Azure Dragon from the east and the Black Tortoise from the north appeared successively.
With the emergence of the four sacred beasts, Jiang Yun's Four Spirits Formation, derived from the Four Spirits Seal, was successfully completed.
"This formation, the Four Spirits Array, has reached the peak of a level-five spiritual array. Not bad at all!"
In the distant sky, Jiang Yun and Zi Yan appeared. Seeing the four sacred beasts in the sky, a satisfied smile appeared on Jiang Yun's face.
A level-five spiritual array was enough to dominate the Dou Zong realm. Given time to set it up, it could even trap a Dou Zun momentarily!
"Wow, Xiao Yun, this is great—I want to learn it!" Beside him, Zi Yan's eyes lit up, gazing at the majestic Azure Dragon, shaking Jiang Yun's hand excitedly.
"It's not that I don't want to teach you, but this requires..." Jiang Yun pointed to his head as he spoke.
Zi Yan looked confused for a moment, then angrily exclaimed, "Hey, are you saying I'm dumb?"
"I didn't say that—you said it yourself!" Jiang Yun chuckled. He was about to playfully press her head down like before, but seeing that Zi Yan had grown up, he quickly pulled back. In that fleeting moment of distraction, Zi Yan head-butted him hard in the chest.
"That's for calling me dumb!"
With a painful thump, Jiang Yun's attention returned, seeing the red mark on his forehead. Zi Yan laughed, "Look, now we're even!"
Holding Zi Yan, Jiang Yun's eyes darted around slightly. He pulled away from her, flying towards the battlefield, "Alright, you stay here on guard. I'll go help the Grand Elder."
Watching Jiang Yun's "retreating" figure, Zi Yan giggled to herself, "He says he doesn't like me, but his actions say otherwise. What a contradictory guy!"
After speaking, feeling the fleeting contact from earlier, even the bold Zi Yan blushed slightly.
"Boom——"
The massive sacred beasts stood tall in this brilliant world, their bodies emanating a radiant glow, exuding an awe-inspiring and chilling pressure.
"Just a mere formation and you think you can trap the Ancestor?" Earth Demon Old Ghost looked at the four beast shadows in the sky, feeling their terrifying pressure, and became slightly nervous.
"Ice Sword Art!"
Earth Demon Old Ghost's withered fingers formed a seal, shouting harshly, causing the surrounding ice shards to rapidly merge into a wide, pitch-black ice sword.
Forming the ice sword, a frigid aura burst forth. Even Han Feng, who possessed a Heavenly Flame, shivered, retreating quietly.
Now, wielding the sharp sword, Earth Demon Old Ghost fully unleashed the power of a Seven-Star Dou Zong, letting out a sharp screech.
"Watch me destroy you!"
Unleashing the sword's energy, he ruthlessly aimed it at the White Tiger within the formation, perceiving the greatest threat from Wu Tianlang.
"It's not just talk!" Wu Tianlang sneered, forming seals with his hands. Instantly, the White Tiger trembled, its eyes showing a glimmer of intelligence.
"Metal Breaker Slash!"
Boom!
A huge light blade spewed from the White Tiger's mouth, slashing towards Earth Demon Old Ghost with indescribable sharpness.
Facing the overwhelming power, Earth Demon Old Ghost's expression turned cold. This formation's strength far exceeded his expectations.
The clash between the powerful spiritual formation and the imposing Dou Zong created a spectacle that left everyone watching in awe.
