Chapter 459: Setting The Formation

This bunch of criminals of Dragon Abyss Prison had escaped from prison for a long time. After being lost for quite some time, Rolling Dragon King finally reacted. He made an initial plan, whereby stabilizing with the help of the formation plays a huge part. What Zhou Bao needed to do was to break up this part of the plan and make a mess.

At the foot of a mountain, Zhou Bao chose an earth vein and inserted a pennant there with a wave of his hand. Later, he moved and disappeared. When he showed up again, he was at another earth vein 300 miles away.

He moved continuously and felt relieved only after he inserted all the 49 pennants in 49 spots.

Standing beside the 49th pennant, Zhou Bao smiled gently and puffed out a mouthful of Green Qi onto the pennant.

Influenced by the Green Qi, the pennant vibrated suddenly and emitted a layer of green light. After that, the rest of the pennants began to radiate a similar light, as if they sensed the same spirit. The green light seeped into the water and joined together. Meanwhile, inside the earth vein of Rolling Dragon Palace, the pneuma surged gradually, as if it was called by an unknown power.

Under the earth vein were countless earth vein branches. They were like roots of an old tree, fine and innumerable. They contained a huge amount of invisible and untouchable pneuma, which were inexhaustible. They not only nourished living creatures in the sea but also powered the practice of many demons. It flowed from ancient times, following the most basic rule between heaven and earth.

Now, being stirred by Zhou Bao’s 49 pennants, the pneuma changed its direction of flow and began to converge on the node of those pennants. As time passed, the abnormal pneuma caused the green light on those pennants to grow brighter and the seawater to ripple strangely.

“Oh no. The pneuma is way too strong!” Suddenly, Zhou Bao seemed to notice that something was wrong and his expression grew solemn. This was his first time setting a formation and stirring pneuma through formation flags at the bottom of the sea. Never had he expected that the pneuma here was so immense and everything went so smoothly in the process of guiding the pneuma. In just a short while, these pennants were satiated. The flags were made delicately to withstand strongly. However, they did not work well under the sea, which made Zhou Bao feel depressed.

However, he had no other choice. The condition at the bottom of the sea was different from that of the Seven-deity Regions. If he was in the Seven-deity Regions, he would be lucky enough to guide one-tenth of the pneuma within such a short period.

Therefore, while on land in the Seven-deity Regions, Zhou Bao had never set any Formation Eye seriously. But now, he had to. If he did not set Formation Eyes to suppress Yin and Yang Dust Formation, it will collapse. Nevertheless, there were some disadvantages of setting Formation Eyes. Firstly, once someone found the Formation Eye and destroyed it, this formation would fall apart immediately. Secondly, the Formation Eye cannot be an ordinary object, otherwise, it could not repress the raging pneuma. For example, an Innate Qi Talisman and a fairy weapon are needed to set up a fairy formation like Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword Formation. The former was required to function as a guide, and the latter as the Formation Eye. Only in this way could this formation be complete. The problem was that he could not find a fairy weapon. Even if he did, he dared not do it lest it results in something irreversible. The only thing he could do now was to use a Pure Yang Celestial Device as the Formation Eye. Thankfully the Yin and Yang Dust Formation was incomplete, otherwise, a Pure Yang Celestial Device could never suppress it.

However, using a Pure Yang Celestial Device as the Formation Eye would lead to another problem. Though the formation was incomplete, it was a fairy formation after all. Guiding the pneuma would be too draining if he used a Pure Yang Celestial Device as the Formation Eye. Although he could succeed in setting this formation, it also meant that his Pure Yang Celestial Device would become useless afterwards. Zhou Bao did have many Pure Yang Celestial Devices which he did not value that much, but sending them to his friends would be a better choice. He would feel sad if he wasted a Pure Yang Celestial Device just to break the formation. Just because of this reason, he was in a bad mood. But there was no use crying over spilt milk.

Zhou Bao took out a random Pure Yang Celestial Device from his space. It turned out to be a colorful and gorgeous fan. One look was enough to tell that it was not an ordinary object. Although it was not refined yet, Zhou Bao had heard of its origin. It was knowns as the Five-flame Fan, a Pure Yang Celestial Device that belonged to Divine Wind Palace earlier. With one move, it could generate five powerful flames that could melt gold and iron. It has overwhelming power. Furthermore, once it was nourished carefully, it could improve his constitution and nourish his tendons and meridians. All in all, it was a wonderful Pure Yang Celestial Device.

“Alas, no matter how amazing it is, I will have to sacrifice it! I guess the bastards from Divine Wind Palace will be able to understand me!” As he was thinking, Zhou Bao looked at the Five-flame Fan and had a strange smile. Later, he shot his hand up and threw it in the center of the formation.

After the Five-flame Fan became the Formation Eye, the superfluous pneuma in the 49 pennants swarmed towards the Five-flame Fan crazily, as if it suddenly found an evacuation route.

The colors emitted by the fan glittered and gradually infused into the cyan pneuma. A strange energy fluctuated and spread over all directions.

“Haha, something fun is happening!” Zhou Bao gaze flickered and shot one divine thought in the fan. He then moved and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, there was a powerful demon who was attacking Rolling Dragon Palace’s protective formation. It was sensitive about spiritual Qi and finally sensed something unusual.

“Eh? Beicang, did you feel that something is wrong?” One of the two Lords of Heaven who was attacking Rolling Dragon Palace stopped what he was doing. He looked very serious and said, “I sensed a tremendous power that is moving towards us. How about you?”

Lord of Heaven Beicang was in a trance and could not help but quiver. “That’s right. I sensed it too. Besides, I can feel that it’s an overwhelming and irresistible power which terrifies me. I haven’t had such a feeling for many years!”

“Yeah, it seems that something is going to happen…!” Before he finished speaking, the Lord of Heaven’s expression suddenly changed, as if he had realized something. “Hurry up. Go back, everyone! I know, I know. Someone, someone is activating the spiritual Qi of the earth vein. It seems that he’s going to attack the protective formation of Rolling Dragon Palace!”

Beicang also realized what was going on. Without wasting time thinking, he asked the surrounding True Immortals at the Venerable Realm, who were attacking the formation, to leave quickly. His reaction was comparably slower and less sensitive as compared to the other Lord of Heaven. However, he knew what did the attacking of formations with spiritual Qi meant.

It meant that many people would die here!

They were making a sally port by gathering so many True Immortals at the Venerable Realm to attack the protective formation of Rolling Dragon Palace. Nothing serious would happen after their attack. However, using one formation to break another by activating the pneuma was a face-to-face fierce battle. Its aftermath could kill True Immortals at the Venerable Realm. As True Immortals at the Lord of Heaven Realm, they would be severely injured as well.

From ancient times till now, human power was no match for nature’s power, no matter how powerful the practitioner was!

Therefore, they retreated very quickly and rationally, successfully avoiding death. While they were retreating, Zhou Bao’s Yin and Yang Dust Formation took shape. It violently stirred seawater within a radius of 100 miles.

Wheeze, wheeze, wheeze…

The calm seawater began to surge. Those living creatures swimming lightheartedly were affected by the water flow. Even giant whales, sharks, and monsters felt helpless in the surging tidewater, let alone ordinary living creatures. Besides them, the surrounding demons were influenced by it too. Born and living in the sea, these helpless demons suddenly found themselves no longer able to control the familiar seawater and utilize it freely. They could only drift along with the water. Only demons who had broken through the Mysterious Realm were barely able to control their actions and swim to places with weak current, in hopes of avoiding death.

The influence of the surging tidewater kept growing. Led by two Lords of Heaven, criminals from Dragon Abyss Prison retreated further and further. They sensed something unusual as well.

“How unique this method is! What a powerful formation! I wonder who is the helper?” Lord of Heaven Beicang said and sighed as he felt Zhou Bao’s power.

“Could it be the person named Qiu Hai, who you guys encountered in Dragon Abyss Prison?” The other Lord of Heaven asked. Known as Lord of Heaven Jiangchuan, a True Immortal at the Lord of Heaven Realm, he once launched a joint attack with Lord of Heaven Beicang toward Rolling Dragon Palace. He was quite powerful, and he hated Rolling Dragon King very much. He was trapped by him 2,000 years ago and was imprisoned in Dragon Abyss Prison. Since he escaped from the prison, he tried to be the first to harm Rolling Dragon King.

“Qiu Hai?” Lord of Heaven Beicang was confused, and he thought of the mysterious man he had met in Dragon Abyss Prison. “That’s possible. Although he’s not so powerful, I cannot see through his true strength. But if it wasn’t for him, we wouldn’t have escaped from the prison. Since he knows Divine Senses like Infinite Realms Teleportation, I guess he probably knows one or two powerful formations. However, I doubt if he can launch this formation!”

“Watch and you’ll figure it out!” While they were talking, the surrounding situation changed again. The Yin and Yang Dust Formation has been formed completely. As an Ancient Miraculous Formation, it affected the pneuma of the earth vein to concentrate. The surrounding water was shaped by an incredibly strong power to form a huge vortex. The door of the hollow was opened, and strands of tiny black threads appeared in the vortex. This was a special phenomenon that only appeared after the space was opened. Countless water flow entered the infinite hollow through these black filaments. Later, it was spat out by a mysterious power and turned into ice. Soon, the water in the vortex gradually turned blue. Spat out by these black filaments, numerous tiny broken ice that looked like blue crystal reacted with the seawater and formed a formidable torrent that rushed towards the Rolling Dragon Palace.
