Chapter 114 – Destroying The Formation
Translator: Mr Voltaire
Editor: Phoobiee
“This demonic spirit can actually devour the formation, and it even becomes more powerful as it fights. This isn’t something that a demonic spirit should be able to do.” The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s power completely exceeded the Ninth Prince’s expectations.
“That’s good though; that means this demonic is quite extraordinary.” Suddenly, the Ninth Prince’s eyes gleamed, and he clenched his fists as he muttered, “I must obtain this demonic spirit. If I refine it, perhaps I’ll be able to obtain a G.o.dly skill.” The Ninth Prince circulated his bloodline’s power, spitting out a mouthful of True Essence and using it to create a seal.
Buzz!
In just an instant, the Ninth Prince had formed another seal and sent it into the formation. The formation’s flags immediately shone with light, giving off an ancient aura. These flags contained profound runes, and there was a bloodline true spirt sealed inside by the Imperial Clan’s ancestor. It was said that this bloodline spirit was related to the divine beast Phoenix, and even though it did not possess a true divine beast’s might, it was not to be looked down on. Now, with Feng Zhu attacking with his full strength, the bloodline true spirit was completely awakened.
Whoos.h.!.+
The formation flags shone with light as a new phoenix was created. Its long feathers shone with light, and had haloes of light around it, giving it a holy air.
The divine beast this time was even more powerful. Evidently, the Ninth Prince had gone all out, and wanted to take down Xiao Yun at all costs. That Heaven-Devouring Sparrow had completely tempted the Ninth Prince.
“This fellow’s quite savage.” Xiao Yun stared coldly. From the aura of the divine beast, he knew that the Ninth Prince was not holding back anymore, and a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes. How could he let this matter go without making the Ninth Prince pay a heavy price?
“Kill!” The Ninth Prince roared as he controlled the formation.
The divine cried out, its gigantic claws s.h.i.+ning with light, looking like a true phoenix’s claws, tearing through the air.
“You’re seeking death!” The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s eyes glinted, the flames on its body turning into a vortex that swept towards the divine beast.
The flames started to burn the divine beast, and at the same time, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow started to devour its vital essence.
It was a pity that the Ninth Prince had gone all out this time, and had awakened the bloodline true spirit. The aura that the image gave off was as if a true divine beast had descended. If it wasn’t for the formation, the shockwaves that it released would have caused ma.s.s destruction.
This sort of aura was definitely more powerful than the Essence Core realm. The phoenix-shaped divine beast trembled, s.h.i.+ning with light, its wings seeming as if they could tear apart anything. It destroyed the vortex that the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow had created, sending the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow flying backwards.
Now, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow was unable to fight against it at all.
“d.a.m.nit!” The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow cursed. Even though it could devour anything, there was a limit. Facing absolute power, it was completely helpless.
“Haha, let’s see what other tricks you have up your sleeve.” When he saw the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow had been sent flying, unable to create its vortex anymore, the Ninth Prince felt delighted and grinned, using the formation to control the divine beast.
“Suppress!” As the Ninth Prince coldly roared out, the divine beast spread its wings, blocking out the sky and sun, as if it was going to completely cover Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun felt a beautiful light descend, submerging the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow and himself, the powerful aura causing his heart to tighten. This formation was simply too powerful, and Xiao Yun felt utterly helpless. His strength just wasn’t enough.
Facing such an attack, even if he used all of his trump cards, it would not be enough.
“I must become stronger and possess absolute strength.” Xiao Yun tightly clenched his fists, his fingernails stabbing into his palm. His desire to become stronger became even more intense – without enough strength, he would suffer in all sorts of situations.
As Xiao Yun clenched his fists, he sent a message to the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow. “Do you want me to use the Heaven-Devouring Tower to help you?”
The Heaven-Devouring Tower was Xiao Yun’s greatest secret, and had helped him defeat that flame serpent. It was just that back then, there was no one around, so Xiao Yun had not hesitated to use it. However, once he revealed the Heaven-Devouring Tower, it would cause him great trouble. After all, this was a treasure even more shocking than his pill refining techniques. Unless it concerned his life or death, Xiao Yun was not willing to bring it out.
“No need, how could this Lord lose to that little brat?” The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow also knew the implications of using the Heaven-Devouring Tower, and its gaze became cold as its body flashed with runes. Soon, its entire body had become a devouring vortex.
This vortex was quite amazing, and was completely made of runes containing comprehensions of the heavens and the earth. This was one of the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s bloodline’s secret techniques. This sort of secret technique consumed a great amount of vital essence, and it would not use it unless it was in great crises.
After the vortex finished forming, it was about 300 metres wide, and gave off a monstrous aura, as if it could devour everything in its path. What’s more, this vortex gave off a scorching air, causing the air to twist and turn as it was incinerated.
The vortex also gave off a dazzling light, making it look like a brilliant sun. Under the scorching aura, the divine beast’s body trembled. This divine beast was not a real creature, and had been created using blood vital essence, leaving it with many weaknesses.
At this moment, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow furiously roared out, shooting towards the divine beast.
Whoos.h.!.+
From the distance, it looked as if a ma.s.sive fiery vortex was attacking and devouring the divine beast’s body.
“This bird’s quite powerful.” The Ninth Prince’s gaze became cold as he laughed, “However, it’s not enough to devour it.”
“Rend!” The Ninth Prince continued to use the magic art, causing the divine beast’s eyes to flash, flas.h.i.+ng its gigantic claws towards the flaming vortex.
Xiao Yun tightly stared ahead of him, his heart in his throat. If the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow could not block this attack, everything would be over.
Whoos.h.!.+
The gigantic claw tore through the air, and ripped a hole in the flaming vortex. However, the vortex flashed, immediately repairing that hole.
Despite this, the sharp claws once again struck out, causing the flaming runes to twist and turn, as if they were unable to fend against the attack.
From how the situation looked, it seemed that the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow would not be able to defend for long.
“It was torn?” Xiao Yun deeply frowned – it looked like the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow was still slightly weaker!
“A mere demonic spirit like you thinks that it can defend against my grand formation?” The Ninth Prince smirked.
“We’ll definitely be able to take down Xiao Yun now.” Yuan Xiao’s eyebrows unfurrowed as he let out a sigh of relief. Just then, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s attacks had greatly shocked him.
“No, I must break out of this formation.” Xiao Yun looked around him. He knew that if he sat by and did nothing, they would be waiting for death. This formation was simply too powerful, and the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow would not be able to last for long.
“But how can I destroy it?” Xiao Yun frowned.
Within the formation, the area around Xiao Yun was filled with nothing but light. Even if he used his spirit energy, it was difficult to find the formation flags. Moreover, the flags were connected to each other, creating restrictions that prevented people from coming close to them.
“The flags are over there.” Xiao Yun looked over, and found that there were some ripples emanating from a certain place. Just then, the divine beast had also taken form over there.
Right now, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow was desperately fighting against the divine beast, but its aura was gradually weakening.
Whoos.h.!.+
The divine beast flashed with light and rushed towards the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow, looking as if it was going to completely submerge it.
“Yiya!”
The snow-white little beast blinked. After looking at where the formation flags were, she suddenly jumped over and slashed out with her little paws.
“A little beast?” The elders who were watching the divine beast beat back the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow in delight suddenly looked over. Currently, the little beast was waving its paws, destroying the formation’s light.
“This little beast is quite extraordinary, and can even fight against late stage True Essence realm cultivators,” Yuan Xiao said with a serious expression. “What is it doing?”
“Could it be that it’s trying to destroy the formation?” The others stared.
“Unless it’s an Essence Core realm expert, this formation cannot be broken,” the Ninth Prince said as he coldly laughed and continued to use the magic art. “Suppress!”
Under the Ninth Prince’s control, the divine beast beat its wings, sending out a wave of light that shot towards the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow. The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s vortex had been completely destroyed, leaving its exhausted body.
After the intense battle, it had consumed much of its strength.
“d.a.m.nit!” When it saw the gigantic wings coming closer, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow couldn’t help but howl. If it had its Essence Core realm strength, how could it be in such a pitiful state? It was only a single step away, but now, it could only sigh in anguish.
Buzz!
At this key moment, the formation suddenly trembled, and ripples appeared. Seeing this, the divine beast paused, affected by the formation.
“What’s going on?” The people outside felt quite surprised.
“It’s that little beast.” Suddenly, they realised something and saw a bewildering scene.
The snow-white little beast was waving its paws, and had torn a crack in the formation’s light. The formation existed as one ent.i.ty, and now that there was a gap, the entire formation was affected.
“Yiya!”
The snow-white little beast deeply frowned, looking like it was exerting a great amount of effort. A wave of runes of light appeared on its body, and even though its paws were very small, they flickered with a profound light, neutralising all shockwaves.
As it continuously attacked, the formation’s light started to crumble.
As the formation was attacked, it automatically counterattacked the snow-white little beast, but was unable to even come close. The runes of light on the snow-white little beast’s body were simply too profound, and were like a protective armour, blocking all of the shockwaves.
Following this, the formation continued to crumble. When they saw this, the Imperial Clan’s people were dumbfounded.
“What sort of heaven-defying beast is this?” Everyone looked at each other, unable to comprehend how Xiao Yun could possess such a terrifying little beast. Even Essence Core realm cultivators, without peerless Martial Skills, would not be able to do such a thing!
Buzz!
As everyone stared in shock, the formation’s light was completely torn apart, and the entire formation trembled, then popped like a bubble. The dazzling s.p.a.ce disappeared, revealing the original scenery around them. Not only this, the divine beast also started to disappear and dissipate.
“Haha, the heavens are truly helping me.” The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow laughed and hurriedly devoured all of the divine beast’s remaining energy, allowing it to start to recover.
