Lin Qian stood quietly in mid-air, gazing at the distant and majestic yet delicate mirage.
He couldn't see what was happening inside the formation, but the sudden appearance of the Five-Colored Pagoda had left him astonished! Others might not know the origin of the Five-Colored Pagoda, but he had personally seen Zuo Mo buying this treasure in the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion.
The Five-Colored Pagoda was somewhat ingenious, but it was only a semi-finished product. In his eyes, it didn't count as a good treasure, let alone being comparable to his life-bound treasure.
However, what was revealed just now at Wuse Tower is indeed his innate treasure!
Something must have happened during this period of time.
Just then, the mirage suddenly fluctuated violently, and the screen was blurry, nothing could be seen.
The excited audience suddenly burst into an uproar.
What's going on? Is something wrong with "Mirage"?
Lin Qian was also somewhat unexpected, the "Mirage Illusion Array" set up by Tian Songzi did not need to be questioned for its stability. Had something happened inside the Songtao Pavilion?
It wasn't just him who was unexpected, the most unexpected one was Tian Songzi. He spent a lot of effort setting up the "Mirage Illusion Array", and now an unexpected situation had arisen, he couldn't help but furrow his brow.
A person next to him who was in charge also found it puzzling: "Logically speaking, the 'Mirage Phantom Formation' shouldn't have any problems."
"Not necessarily." The other leaders chimed in.
"The Mirage Formation" is a very mature and stable formation, which has been used to the point of being overused. This time's deployment, apart from its scale being much larger than usual, doesn't have any other special features.
Tian Songzi's eyes suddenly twitched at the corner.
Someone noticed his unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask: "Fellow Taoist, have you discovered something?"
Tiansongzi's expression remained unchanged as he smiled and said, "It was just a small unexpected event."
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, the mirage returned to normal, and everyone's attention was quickly drawn back to the mirage.
Tian Songzi's eyes, however, revealed a hint of surprise. The Songtao Pavilion was a treasure of the Dongfu Hall, controlled by each generation's master. Just now, he had sensed a sudden explosion of an extremely powerful spiritual energy fluctuation within the pavilion. This energy fluctuation had affected the "Mirage Shadow Formation", causing it to malfunction. The energy fluctuation was like a shooting star, swift and fleeting.
His gaze fell on the large array in the mirage.
The location of the spiritual energy explosion is there!
Who burst out with spiritual power? Zuo Mo or someone else?
Yu Bai's elimination was not unexpected, and he didn't feel sad about it either. Having a chance to temper himself in actual combat would be greatly beneficial for Yu Bai. As for the rest, he didn't mind. Perhaps Yu Bai would harbor resentment, but that was exactly what Tiansongzi hoped he would experience.
Yu Bai is gentle and courteous in his daily life, but he is actually not worldly-wise, with a strong sense of pride deep down. The air of a rich young master, which is almost the most common trait among the core disciples of every sect.
Tiansongzi cast his gaze towards the great formation once again.
He couldn't help but admire Pei Yuanran, among the disciples of Kongjian Gate, except for Luo Li who still had some airs of a young master, Wei Sheng and Zuo Mo didn't have even half a bit of it.
These two young people added the most colorful and heavy brushstrokes to this sword trial.
"Tsukiyomi no ōto"
Inside the grand array, all things collapse into powder and dust, shrouded in misty water vapor. They continue to become finer and more fragmented!
In the midst of swirling dust, Zuo Mo's arms were stretched out to his sides, like a god, unmoving. His eyes were empty and apathetic, devoid of any emotion. When the dust and mist approached within a hundred feet of Zuo Mo, it was as if an invisible wall blocked their path, unable to advance even half a step towards Lei Chi.
The strongest killer of the 72 Child Array, Tian Huan Yue Ming Array, shook the Songtao Pavilion! The unstoppable collapse sound was like a hurricane, sweeping across the Songtao Pavilion, and wherever it passed, countless small spirit beasts vomited blood and fell to the ground dead.
A loud noise swept past, and the cultivator's qi and blood were shaken, his spiritual power almost lost control, and he was shocked!
The cultivators outside the formation were affected like this, and the pressure faced by the five people inside the formation was a hundred times stronger!
Her slender eyebrows were knitted together, revealing a hint of pain in her expression.
She still underestimated the power of the grand array! Under the collapse, her spiritual energy almost directly dissipated, and the magnetic shield was on the verge of collapsing. She gritted her teeth, no longer daring to hold back, and poured all her spiritual energy into the Black Obsidian Sword!
Magnetic distortion of space, her figure in the hood is as illusory as a light shadow.
Luo Li's situation wasn't much better, a thread of fresh blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. His cultivation was not as deep as the other four, and he had already been injured in one strike! But the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up, and the fighting spirit in his eyes did not decrease but increased, becoming crazier and more intense!
Last time I forced you into such a sorry state, you didn't admit defeat. This time you've forced me into such a sorry state...
How can I lose to you...
The pupils suddenly dilated, the flying sword floating in front of him let out a clear hum, the sword body buzzed slightly, like flowing light, inserted into the ground in front of his feet, until it was hilt-deep.
He knelt down on one knee before the sword, his head bowed low, and muttered softly: "I'm leaving!"
I'm leaving... I'm leaving... I'm leaving...
The faint echo lingered beside him, and the shadowy figure of a woman floated before him, suddenly becoming clear. A slender woman in white stood demurely, her eyes filled with resentment, she let out a soft sigh, and raised her delicate wrist.
A crimson light ribbon flew out of her hand and blocked in front of the two people.
He stood there, expressionless, as the ground beneath his feet cracked and crumbled into fine ash. Yet he remained unmoved. Before him, the Blood Spider seemed enraged, its shrill cries echoing through the air as the black runes on its body surged with intense light.
A dark blood-colored light screen appeared, blocking the way in front of a man and a spider.
The yellow-faced man wore heavy armor and held a bronze spear, shouting loudly.
The bronze spearhead burst forth with dazzling light, clearly thrusting into thin air, yet as if encountering an enormous obstacle, it inched forward bit by bit, every inch extremely arduous. The spearhead's radiance grew increasingly piercing to the eyes, until it became impossible to gaze directly at it!
The little demon king in front of the ghostly wind let out a childish "ya ya" sound, waving his delicate hands like lotus roots. The pale green light curtain followed the swing of his small hands, layer by layer. The thin green light curtain was fragile as an eggshell and shattered as soon as it was spread.
The ghostly wind finally revealed a look of shock and horror.
The little demon king seemed to be enraged, no longer making cute and innocent faces. His face turned dark and menacing. He began to dance with his hands and feet, his movements strange and eerie, each action filled with a sinister and frightening aura, like a wizard casting a spell!
A faint green light band appeared, surrounding the ghost wind and the little demon king spinning rapidly, and a mournful wailing sound was faintly transmitted from within the light band.
The air around Zuo Mo, who had entered a mysterious and strange state, suddenly fluctuated.
Those apathetic and empty eyes moved slightly, with a hint of anger added.
Zuo Mo suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and the comfortable feeling of being immersed in his spiritual sense vanished into thin air.
No gray, no stardust, no sea of knowledge...
He blinked his eyes, and above his head hung a full moon, with silvery threads like hair and a halo like a bell.
The first thought in Zuo Mo's mind was: "Not good!"
How did I wake up at such a critical moment...
Before he could even regret it, he was hit head-on by a beast running at full speed like a small mountain. Pfft, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body was heavily thrown up like a sandbag.
The strongest killer of the 72 Child Array, Tian Huan Yue Ming Array, clashed head-on with the five people who were desperately trying to save their lives, including "Yue Ming Bao Yin", in a brutal and straightforward manner!
The strongest collision in this sword trial!
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Dazzling light rises like the sun.
The mountain collapses and the earth splits, the sky and earth change color.
The heavenly ring and moon's resonant array cannot withstand such a terrifying power collision, shattering into four or five pieces in an instant!
Poor Zuo Mo, at the most critical moment, he woke up and his power fell back to its normal state. How could he withstand the collision of these two forces? Fortunately, most of the force was borne by the Tian Huan Yue Ming formation, but even so, Zuo Mo couldn't take it and suffered heavy injuries.
The Five-Colored Pagoda's radiance dimmed, its body cracked and fissured. It let out a mournful cry, transformed into a stream of light, and flew into Zuo Mo's body.
Chang Heng and Wu Ren were no match for them, the head-on collision of two powerful forces far exceeded their imagination. Before they could even react, they were ruthlessly blasted out of the formation dozens of feet away.
None of the five were unscathed, each was injured, their faces filled with shock, and even Zhang Jingchu was no exception.
The crowd watching from a distance couldn't see clearly what was happening inside the formation due to the mirage, and the sudden blurring of the mirage also made many people secretly speculate.
Just as everyone was bewildered, a dazzling and piercing light suddenly burst out of the restored Mirage.
Under the sudden and unforeseen circumstances, many people's vision was blurred and they couldn't see anything. The East Floating suddenly fell into chaos, with panicked people subconsciously protecting themselves, and the huge East Floating was filled with screams.
It wasn't until a while later that everyone's eyes returned to normal and the situation stabilized.
People with inexplicable terror subconsciously cast their eyes towards the mirage where the situation just occurred.
Hiss!
The scene of tens of thousands of people simultaneously gasping in unison is a rare and spectacular sight.
In the mirage, the original position of Zuo Mo's formation was completely changed. The puddle was gone, the forest was gone, and the formation was gone. What could be seen was a gigantic pit that was over ten zhang deep and had a diameter of as much as fifty zhang. Such a terrifying pit made everyone's heart feel cold, and they swallowed their saliva in desperation.
Around the large pit, there are fifteen wide cracks that exceed five zhangs in width, extending from the large pit to the surrounding areas. The longest crack is three li long!
Even the shortest fissure reaches one hundred zhang!
The big pit is pitch black, with dense cracks all over it, shocking at first sight, and it looks like an ugly gallbladder.
Anyone who sees this "water gallbladder" has only fear and trepidation in their mind!
What kind of strength is needed to achieve it?
The audience in the East Floating was shocked, and the cultivators inside Songtao Pavilion were even more severely impacted.
In that instant when the light burst forth, the force that could destroy heaven and earth made everyone deeply feel what fear was, what death was!
No one has an interest in bloody battles anymore.
Their hearts were filled with terror, but their legs seemed to have a mind of their own, involuntarily running towards the place where the light was shining.
When they saw the big pit, they seemed to have exhausted their last bit of strength and sat down beside it.
The crowd of onlookers at the Donghuang Sect's gathering place suddenly heard a voice filled with shock and anger that cut to the bone.
"I, my Songtao Pavilion..."
