Chapter 199: Secret of the Holy Soul Order
While Lyu Liang was engaged in a fierce battle, the cave residence of Purple Phoenix Fairy was surrounded by a group of people. The door of her bedroom was open, the inside was no longer an enchanting boudoir, but a misty, chaotic scene.
There were seven people closest to the bedroom, and among them was Fang Mu, sitting with his legs crossed and eyebrows furrowed. Above his head, there was a big golden drawing brush, flying up and down, seemingly drawing complex lines.
As for Han Jing, she put one hand lightly on the left shoulder of Fang Mu, with a serious look, and then transmitted voice messages to all those around her.
The Saber-toothed Master, the Wine Sword Immortal, Han Tangtang, Liu Jiawen, and Zheng Xuan surrounded these two people, staying alert to the situation. Obviously, there were a protecting formation.
“This is not good! It really is the forbidden eye of the array unit! This is not an ordinary Man of Sacrifice! He is proficient in the ‘Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation’, and he also knows how to activate the forbidden eye of the array unit, but unfortunately such a talent does not serve us well!” Han Jing exclaimed, her face turning severe immediately. She then said to the others around her, “Fangmu said that he has found a way to destroy the formation, but he still needs one and half an hours! Once the forbidden eye of the array unit is activated, which will be happening in less than 30 minutes, both the formation and the cultivator will be ruined!”
Han Jing’s words made the surrounding atmosphere somewhat intense. Han Jing had received this message from Fang Mu. She explained it to the others and elaborated on the ‘Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation’.
The ‘Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation’ was one of the top ten, strange arrays of the ancient times. The powerful array unit of s.p.a.ce Law, combined with the restriction formation, which could limit the operation of Spiritual Qi, was used specifically, to deal with powerful cultivators.
The reason why it was called a strange formation, was because it had a very powerful feature. The one who operated the formation must kill the targeted enemy trapped in the formation, or else, the Divine Soul of the operator of the formation, would be smashed, and the operator would die.
Under such conditions, if you didn’t kill your enemy, you will die, so the safest trump card was to let the formation and the operator be ruined. This was because, this kind of formation did harm to both the formation and the operator, and most of the operators died with the ruined formations. Those who could operate such a formation were becoming more and more rare.
“But… what about Lyu Liang?” Liu Jiawen panicked, and her eyes widened in fear.
At this point, Fang Mu finally got up, scratched his head, and remarked in a deep voice, “I have started to destroy the formation, but it will take at least one and half an hours. Unless Lyu Liang can hold on, otherwise… oh, but he can’t run the aura inside, nor can he use any magic treasures, so I really can’t think of a way that can help him to hold on… ”
………………………………
Now inside the ‘Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation’, there were only three people.
In the eyes of the Purple Phoenix Fairy, there was only Lyu Liang now. Looking at the man who was meditating, while facing the sky, she had an intuitive feeling that if he could survive, she, too would survive.
The black robed man was sitting, with legs crossed. The mask on her face had fallen, revealing a beautiful but sad face. She was one of the girls who had pushed Lyu Liang inside the room!
Lyu Liang turned a blind eye to all these. His brows furrowed, and he looked at the black sky that would be dropping in less than 15 minutes. He recalled that, on the top level of the Training Tower in the Virtual Land, Dreamless the Heavenly Lord had said something.
“My disciple, what I can give you is just so much! But I am hesitating whether I should tell you one more thing now. There will be three Dead Tests in your destiny. Each Dead Test is more dangerous than the previous one, so after balancing the pros and cons, I have decided to tell you. Once you are in a critical moment, you can decide whether to use it or not.” The Dreamless Heavenly Lord used to be cynical and dreamless, and rarely behaved so seriously.
With his hair tangled, Lyu Liang was at first stunned, and then cupping his hands in respect, said, “Master, please tell me!”
The Dreamless Heavenly Lord nodded, “In the three major Killing moves I have taught you, the Holy Soul Order is the strongest, and hence the most difficult one to master! In the five parts of the Holy Soul Order, the strongest one is the forming of Divine Soul. As for the one that is most protective, it is the forming of Devine Body, which is your own body! Among the three major killings, the Holy Spirit is the strongest, but it is also the most difficult to achieve! As long as you can stimulate your Devine Body, it will be very difficult for those below the level of Divine Ancestor to hurt you!”
Lyu Liang pondered this in his heart, and then murmured to himself, “He had to exercise the Holy Soul Order from his hands, then the legs, and finally his body. Even the Dreamless Heavenly Lord knew only one powerful figure, who had exercised half of his body. But now he was just a Fairy Immortal, how could he reach the level of Devine Body?”
Naturally the Dreamless Heavenly Lord understood what Lyu Liang was worrying about, so he continued. “Even if you become a Heavenly Master like me, it will still be hard for you, to even reach the basic level of forming a Devine Body, let alone you are just a Fairy Immortal now! The skill I have told you about, is not a normal one, but when you are in a life and death struggle, it will give you the hope of surviving!”
Lyu Liang was at first stunned, and then he understood. So he immediately concentrated on the following instructions.
“You may have discovered that the Holy Soul Order is a kind of strong body-forming skill, which is free from the aura movement! When you reach the level of Tao Master, you can activate the skill to help you, but meanwhile, it may also do irreparable harm to your Divine Soul!” The Dreamless Heavenly Lord looked serious and continued to explain in a deep voice, “I can tell you the way of Holy Soul, which can help you to form a Devine Body in an instant. You will be at an invincible state within one and half an hours, and no magic skills and magic treasures can hurt you! But mind you, your soul will begin to wear out at the same time, unless you stop activating your Devine Body. Otherwise, after one and half an hours, you will never be able to embark on the road of cultivation, even if you are not extinguished!
Lyu Liang thoroughly understood it, this time. Isn’t this an upgraded version of burning Divine Soul to stimulate potential? Looking at the serious face of Master, he nodded heavily.
Later, under the guidance of the Dreamless Heavenly Lord, this skill which could be called a self-perishing skill, was imprinted in the Divine Soul of Lyu Liang.
Originally, Lyu Liang didn’t plan to use the skill, even though he had mastered it. He was quite confident about how to escape and survive.
Even if there was no Dreamy Crystal Vessel, he would also be invincible, with the help of the Devil Thunder Wing, the Kun Peng Skill and the instantaneous flash of White. At least now, no other cultivator in this Realm, could be comparable to him.
He did not falter when facing an array unit or Bounded Domain, so long as Black was beside him. However, this was the first time he met such a fatal formation, as this Five Ghosts Moving Array.
Originally, before the activation of the Forbidden Eye of Array Unit, Lyu Liang would be able to escape if he made a Human-Beast Unite with Black. However, he did not know that the array unit was so powerful, and what’s more, even if he managed to escape, Purple Phoenix Fairy would certainly die. All these, together with those Men of Sacrifice who had no aura after being killed, would cause him to be blamed.
But now, the Forbidden Eye of Array Unit had been activated, and Black had told him, frankly, that he could not escape, even if he wanted to.
“Instead of waiting for death, it is better to fight!” In just several seconds, Lyu Liang made the final decision.
“One and half an hours, this is the maximum time we have, in order to fight for survival. If no one comes to save us during the period, we will be extinguished.” Lyu Liang turned and said this to the Purple Phoenix Fairy. A burst of purple light emerged from his body and a blue and golden light, rose from the top of his head!
Both the Purple Phoenix Fairy and the girl in black, felt stunned, yet both had different expressions.
A trace of pain appeared in Purple Phoenix Fairy’s face, while the girl in black, sneered.
At the moment, Lyu Liang felt the pain of the tearing of his Divine Soul. He could not think about anything now, but managed to say something to the divine beasts and the wild beasts around him, “White, Golden, Black, Little Tian, Ape, Fatty, and the two seniors of wild beast, thank you for all your help you gave me, along the way. But sorry, I have not paid back the debt of grat.i.tude to you, and even involved you in this trouble. I’m so sorry… ”
At this time, White said in a low voice, “We, five divine beasts, can escape from this world, using my Time and s.p.a.ce Power, but I can do nothing to help Fatty and the wild beasts to escape.”
“Master, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, everything I have experienced so far, is much richer than staying with my cautious father. Although I still want to follow you, but it seems that we won’t have the chance. It doesn’t matter. If you die, I will follow!” The huge spherical body of Fatty emerged and lay against Lyu Liang.
The wild beast mother and son also emerged at this time. It came as a pleasant surprise, that the little b.l.o.o.d.y dragon had transformed into a boy in red, at this time. He respectfully greeted Lyu Liang, together with his mother, and said, “Benefactor! You seem so serious, talking like that. But for you, my mother and I would have long been killed. Now let us offer you a final help!”
After he finished talking, the lad looked at his mother, and then they both changed into their original shapes, and collided directly with the black sky, which was now at the height of two persons.
The moment they collided with the sky, the two b.l.o.o.d.y dragons mourned, but still held up the sky, with resolute eyes, to prevent it from falling down.
Although the speed of falling sky had slowed down, it was only for a little while, and it still fell, according to the speed of its original track.
“Hey, don’t waste your energy! Since the birth of the ‘Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation’, I only know one immortal who has escaped from it. Do you still want to be the second and third?” The girl in black, was breathing heavily, and sat with her legs crossed. While she was gasping, she sneered.
“I am coming!” Lyu Liang’s eyes were flushed with blood. He suddenly raised his arms, and the sky that was falling down, was actually held up by him! The blue golden soul spirit on top of his head, became stronger, and the red light on the surface of his body glowed even more brilliantly!
………………………………
At the same time, although Huangfu Gang’s courtyard was still brightly lit, he was drinking alone in the big house, accompanied by a faint mist.
“Childe, Lyu Liang probably will be killed this time. It’s a pity, since you have only recently become allies!” There was a tinge of sadness in the tone of the mist.
Huangfu Gang seemed to be stunned at his words, and then smiled, “Hey, how can you actually say that? Don’t you want to kill him as soon as possible!”
“Hey, I don’t follow you now! So my vision needs to be enlightened. But it seems that you are not anxious at all. Won’t the death of Lyu Liang hinder your plans of saving your mother?” The mist was stunned. Looking at Huangfu Gang, who was not sad at all, it felt a bit confused.
Huangfu Gang put down the wine gla.s.s and whispered, “I was anxious, actually. Anyway, it was one of the fatal formations in Antiquity! Anye Tianhu sent one of his three elite squads this time, so it is unknown whether Lyu Liang can survive or not! If he can survive, it means that my judgement is right. If he can’t, I will lose one of my powerful enemies, in advance!”
The mist paused for a while, and then asked nervously: “The second son of the Dark Night Family is here? Will he cause trouble for you?”
“Hey, Anye Tianhu is many times humbler and smarter than his elder brother! I guess this time, his aim is to kill Lyu Liang, and let it be a warning to me! Anyway, take it easy! Maybe before I am in trouble, he will be killed!” Huangfu Gang sneered, and suddenly got up, “Fog Devil, let’s go. It’s time to take a bet! I bet Lyu Liang will not die! So, it’s necessary to maintain a good relationship with him. And most important of all, we can show our talents in front of that person!”
