Chapter 358 – The Devil’s Tribulation, Coming
Chapter 358 – The Devil’s Tribulation, Coming
Hm?
Suddenly hearing this prompt from the system, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart couldn’t help but be moved.
Hundred refining formation eye achievements, wasn’t this what he was currently trying to do?
Moreover, it didn’t seem to require the level of that formation eye.
In other words, following on, one should be able to refine either that first level formation eye or a fifth level formation eye.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chengxuan instantly stopped what he was doing at hand for the time being and took out some other materials instead.
By the time he followed the requirements, he had successfully refined a first level formation eye regarding that Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Grand Formation.
On his system alert, the progress of the mission had suddenly changed from 0% to 1%.
As expected, it was possible.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was instantly delighted.
One must know that with his current attainments in formation dao, refining those low-grade formation eyes wouldn’t take much time at all.
In less than half a day, a hundred first-grade array eye array disks had already been completed by him.
Ding
Just at the same time, the system’s prompt once again sounded in his mind.
Congratulations to the host, for reaching the achievement of refining formation eyes for 100 times, obtaining a temporary breakthrough opportunity in formation cultivation, and a set of Eight Gate Heavenly Locking Formation.
Temporary Breakthrough Opportunity in Formation Dao Cultivation: After using this opportunity, it allows the host’s formation Dao cultivation to temporarily break through one major realm.
In other words, with Jiang Chengxuan’s current Formation Dao cultivation, once he used this opportunity, then his Formation Dao cultivation would, in a short period of time, reach the sixth rank level.
Eight Gates Heavenly Locking Formation: A top level trap formation that contains nine killing formations, eighteen illusion formations, and thirty-six trapping formations. When these formations are combined into one, it can bring out the power of a trap formation at the sixth level.
Jiang Chengxuan had never thought that this system reward would be so generous.
Whether it’s that temporary breakthrough opportunity in formation dao cultivation, or that Eight Gate Heaven Locking Formation, it’s all first-rate good stuff.
Especially at the present moment, when the Demonic Tribulation was about to come, it had given him two more absolute cards in his hands.
If it was paired with the Sixth Order Formation Talisman that he had obtained in the beginning, the Star Qiong Formation Talisman, then if he carefully counted, currently in his hands, the power of the Sixth Order had heatedly reached as many as three.
Although these powers, they were all only temporary.
However, at critical moments, they were able to play a huge role in reversing the battle situation.
The next time.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others were not idle.
Rather, they did their respective tasks at hand in accordance with the requirements of the tasks assigned by the several Heavenly Monarchs.
Time passed in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, almost four years had passed.
It was also on this day.
Above the entire vast Ten Thousand Star Sea, a heavenly spiritual light suddenly lit up.
Every spiritual light was a large formation.
When these formations were all fused together by an extremely strong force, countless stars suddenly fell from the nine heavens.
A force that was strong enough to make any cultivator tremble erupted.
It was also at this moment that the Nine Heavens Star Falling River Formation, which they had spent nearly four years to jointly arrange, was finally declared complete.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, as well as True Lord Feixue and the others.
They all clearly felt that at the moment when the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Formation was declared officially completed, their hearts, for no reason at all, let out a long sigh of relief.
It was as if some boulder had been removed from their hearts.
This also made them deeply realize that if they hadn’t set up the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Grand Formation this time around.
Or rather, if they failed to complete the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Formation before the arrival of the demonic calamity, they were afraid that something extremely terrifying would happen.
In fact, this feeling of theirs was not wrong.
Because it was not long after they had finished setting up the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Grand Formation.
The Ten Thousand Star Sea Region.
Where the Bent Corner Cliff Sea was located, large strands of black light suddenly filled the air.
An extremely evil, extremely cruel, and extremely tyrannical aura violently surged up from those black lights.
Ka-ching ka-ching…
And above its corresponding sky.
A pitch-black colored crack appeared out of thin air.
In an instant, there was an infinite amount of demonic energy that flew in all directions and spread rapidly.
Seeing this situation.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, and all the rest of the cultivators, their pupils couldn’t help but contract violently.
In their hearts, a thought instantly sprang up in unison.
Devil’s Tribulation, it’s coming!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
At the same time.
A brilliant light suddenly lit up from all parts of the Ten Thousand Star Sea.
Looking down from a high altitude, one could see above the entire vast sea area.
There was a light cluster shaped like an island that quickly connected to each other.
In the end, a huge light curtain like a spider’s web was formed.
This was the sign of the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Formation opening at full strength.
It was seen that in the countless voids, a black fog was vaporized out of thin air and dispersed.
They melted and disintegrated rapidly under those rays of light.
However, there were also so many few areas that were not enveloped by the light of that Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Formation.
In a matter of moments, there were large clusters of black fog that infested the sea, as well as the four directions.
“Roar!”
“Roar!”
“Roar!”
Suddenly, amidst the great horror, countless agonizing and hideous hisses suddenly resounded.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others stood in the middle of the great formation and were soon surprised to see.
In the area infested with demonic qi, those originally normal creatures in the sea suddenly began to undergo violent aberrations.
The originally normal-sized sea fish suddenly became as big as a balloon, rapidly growing larger.
On top of their fins, tails, and even scales, incomparably sharp barbs were born.
Some even had sharp claws under their bellies.
On both sides of the body, extended black like a scythe like sharp things.
The head was even growing rapidly, with fangs.
What’s more, several heads grew directly from the body.
Some seem like cows, some like tigers, some like sheep, some like bears ……
And extended countless twisted hideous tentacles.
Sinuous flying, horrible to the extreme.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, True Monarch Feixue, True Monarch Xinghai, and Yan Wushuang Earthbound Sword Monarch couldn’t help but have their expressions change violently.
A single thought was clearly appearing in their minds.
This was a demonic dye, a true demonic dye!
It was conceivable that at this moment, if there were any low-ranked cultivators outside of the grand formation, within a moment and a half, those low-ranked cultivators would definitely be just like those aberrant sea creatures, becoming inhuman and ghostly.
Thoroughly and completely, reduced to inhuman and non-ghostly monsters.
“Hahahahahaha!”
Right at this moment, a burst of rampant and unrestrained laughter suddenly resounded in the sky above this Ten Thousand Star Sea.
The faces of Jiang Chengxuan and the other cultivators instantly just stared.
Everyone immediately turned their heads to look.
They saw that in the place that showed black light and possessed countless pitch-black demonic qi. A battleship that appeared pitch-black in color was clearly in everyone’s line of sight.
And on top of those pitch-black warships, an evil figure was standing.
They were surrounded by demonic flames and had a powerful aura.
Among them, the first six figures were the most terrifying.
Looking at the aura emanating from their bodies, all of them had actually reached the sixth stage, that is, the level of a Transformation God.
In the words of their demonic cultivators, they were six demonic dharma.
After them, there were hundreds of YuanYing level Devil Monarchs, as well as thousands and thousands of Jindan Devil cultivators.
Most importantly, at the side of these devil cultivators, or behind them, there was an incomparably huge monster with a ferocious aura, and a crazy bloodthirsty intent leaking from its eyes.
Those monsters should all be demonic monsters that have been tainted by demonic qi for many years and raised by special techniques.
The strongest ones had even reached the level of the sixth stage.
With such a strong lineup, if their human race did not set up a large formation in advance and make preparations.
Then in such a situation, it would definitely be a case of fewer victories and more defeats.
Moreover, right now, even if they have a large formation as a barrier, the situation is still not optimistic.
Boom!
Right at this moment, that one huge pitch-black warship, with incomparably terrifying might, under the support of the six Devil Elders, as well as the many Devil Cultivators, violently collided with the Nine Heavens Star Falling River Grand Formation.
In an instant, incomparably horrifying explosions rang out.
A circle of huge circular waves like a tsunami spread rapidly in all directions.
In an instant, countless small islands outside were reduced to pieces.
The seawater was vaporized.
Some of the monsters that were deformed in the sea, even more so, didn’t even grunt before directly bursting into a mass of blood mist and dissipating.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
And just at the same time.
A deep black pillar of light blatantly struck above the Nine Heavenly Stars Falling River Grand Formation.
The Nine Heavenly Star Falling River Formation suddenly blossomed with infinite light.
What’s more, there was a bright star light that violently fell down from the nine heavens and was added on top of the grand formation.
In the blink of an eye, a series of terrifying explosions erupted once again in the area where the two sides collided.
Above the black warship.
The eyes of a man in black dragon armor suddenly narrowed.
Then, he heard him speak coldly, “It seems that this side of the Human Race had prepared for this, and with your and my current attacks, neither of us will be able to break the defenses of that great formation of theirs.”
Another man with a black crescent moon mark on his brow let out a cold laugh and said:
“So what? It’s just the dying struggle of a mole cricket.
All we have to do is to spend some more money.
I just don’t believe that with the power we have today, we will still be unable to break through the defenses of their side of the human race.”
“Fellow Daoist Evil Moon is extremely right.”
At this moment, another man in blood-colored armor said:
“Why don’t we let those descendants of ours lead a group of Saint Beasts and go down to meet them first.
If we can use this to break their great formation, it would naturally be the best.
Even if we can’t, we can still use this to infinitely weaken the power of their great formation, laying down an absolute advantage for you and I to strike afterward.
I believe that they will definitely not let you and I down.”
Along with this person’s words.
Soon, on top of the many pitch-black warships, there was a dense silhouette like locusts, falling towards the Ten Thousand Star Seas below.
The person at its head, at worst, had reached the level of a YuanYing seventh layer great cultivator.
Not to mention that there were many peak YuanYing ninth layer cultivators amongst them.
As well as the peak sixth level demonic monsters that accompanied them.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
In an instant, a huge popping sound rang out once more.
The location of the group of Jiang Guo cultivators, led by Jiang Chengxuan and the others, was one of the most important array eyes.
It was called the Yao Guang Flying Immortal Formation.
What it relies on, is precisely the Daoist ground of the Hochuan True Lord, the Hochuan Spirit Island.
Therefore, at this time, on top of this Spirit Island, in addition to their group of Jiang Guo cultivators, there were also the Nanhai Twin Immortals from the Nanhai Sect.
Dugu Baifei and Situ Xiang.
As well as the original owner of this spirit island, True Lord Haokawa.
Of course.
The number of YuanYing cultivators who wanted to guard such an important eye of a great formation naturally exceeded the six of them.
It was just that the rest of those people, their cultivation levels, were no match for Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
They had only reached the early YuanYing stage.
And the main function of their existence was still to assist Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
Seeing that in the midst of that roiling black light, there were suddenly densely packed, countless figures with strong auras falling.
A small portion of them were rushing towards the Yaoguang Flying Immortal Formation where they were located, that is, the Haocuan Spirit Island.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, the South Sea Twin Immortals, as well as the Haochuan True Monarch and the others, their eyes immediately condensed.
It was because they could clearly sense that among those demonic cultivators who had come here, there were actually seven people whose strength had all reached the level of a great cultivator.
The remaining number of mid YuanYing and early YuanYing devil cultivators, in total, added up to as many as twenty.
On top of that, the number of Jindan demonic cultivators and Violet Mansion demonic cultivators and the like were also more than two or three times as many as them.
This caused the South Sea Twin Immortals and the group of cultivators such as True Lord Haokawa to immediately feel an incomparably huge pressure.
At that moment, they heard Dugu Bai Fei say:
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Shen, and Fellow Daoist Haokawa, looking at the situation today, the demonic cultivator side, is clearly treating this place of ours, as one of the breakthroughs that needs to be broken through.
Needless to say, in a moment, their attacks will definitely be very ferocious.
At that time, I still hope that we can go all out to block their attacks, not to mention not allowing them to take advantage of the situation.”
Regarding Dugu Baifei’s words, whether it was Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, or True Lord Haokawa and the others present, they were all obviously very much in agreement.
At that moment, everyone could not help but nod.
Just as Haochuan True Monarch, also wanted to say something, outside that Haochuan Spirit Island.
Among the group of demonic cultivators who had come, there was suddenly someone who took out a conch-like item from their own body, and then put it to their mouth and blew it.
Whoop-whoop-whoop-whoop!
In an instant, a low and rich in a certain special rhythmic sound rang out.
Seeing that in the middle of the sea, a head of sea creatures with deformed body shapes suddenly appeared one after another.
Then, without saying a word, under the effect of that sound, they quickly rushed over towards this Haochuan Spirit Island where Jiang Chengxuan and the others were.
Bang, bang, bang…
In a matter of moments, the hundreds and thousands of monsters that rushed at the forefront of the aberrations turned into a mass of blood mist under the might of that Yao Guang Flying Immortal Formation.
However, it was as if they didn’t know fear at all.
They were still going forward and back, fearlessly rushing towards the Haotuan Spirit Island.
