Chapter 410: The Beginning Of The Great War, The Sages Combine To Break The Sword Formation
Not many could imagine what it looked like when one person’s poise overwhelmed a million-soldier great army.
Yet today, many cultivators got to witness this scene with their own eyes.
A white-robed figure stood tall in front of the million-strong army. He had an exquisite ancient sword draped over his waist and gorgeous ladies accompanying on both sides. He exuded a formidable presence.
Boundless Sword-based Daoist Rhymes emanated from his body, filling every nook and cranny of the realm.
At this moment, it felt like this white-robed figure had become the very center of this world!
The million-strong army was taken aback. An awkward silence suddenly befell them as they looked at Chu Kuangren, who was standing in front of them. They were visibly shaken.
They felt like even though they were surrounded by like-minded people who were similarly enemies with this person standing in front of them…
They still felt no sense of security at all.
It was because that man in front of them was Chu Kuangren!
“Death has come knocking on your door, and you’re still as proud as ever. Chu Kuangren, I must say that with this point alone, I salute you!”
Suddenly, Graylord Sage’s voice was heard.
He stared coldly at Chu Kuangren. There was a sense of reverence in his eyes, but there was more of his chilling killing intent.
“I’ll still stick to my words that today, the Black Heaven Sect must die! The same goes to you, Chu Kuangren, the top sky-pride of this generation… you must die too!!”
Chu Kuangren smiled in response. “I shall stick to my words too, then. You really think you bunch of rotten dirty sc.u.mbags can manage that?!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he formed a sword hand sign.
A tremendous Daoist Rhyme erupted before the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart and the Three Great Daoist Transformations unleashed at the same time. In the distance, the Black Heaven Blade Mountain began to quake as if it had been summoned. Longswords then flew up into the sky and surrounded the place from all four directions.
Horrific sword qi instantly erupted, encompa.s.sing all of the s.p.a.ce between the sky and the earth. Some of the cultivators who did not manage to evade this sword qi were instantly garrotted by this sword formation!
However, in the next second, a ten-kilometer radius of Black Heaven Sect was enveloped in an incredibly powerful sword qi, making it difficult for anyone to get near them.
“This is the Black Heaven Sect’s Black Heaven Sword Formation!”
Graylord Sage’s gaze froze as he said that.
“This formation is a Sage-grade formation. On top of Chu Kuangren’s Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, its power will be greatly elevated under his control!”
Heavenly Emperor Sage Li remarked.
After that, they looked toward the giant Fairy boat behind them. The masterminds of this attack, the six great Sage Rulers, were there.
“If you guys can’t even handle this sword formation, what’s the use of having you here?” An indifferent voice came from inside the Fairy boat.
The crowd glanced at each other.
Graylord Sage then clenched his teeth. “Prepare to breach the sword formation!”
If their intention was to impress the unknown lands, they must seize this opportunity to show their worth. Otherwise, how else would they get on their good books?
Meanwhile, back in the Fairy boat, the few Sage Rulers looked unfazed. Their gaze pierced through ten kilometers, and they stared at Chu Kuangren, who stood in front of Longevity Hall.
Chu Kuangren seemed to have noticed this too because he then looked toward the Sage Rulers’ direction amidst the great army. His lip curled upward and moved, as if he was mumbling something.
Sage Ruler Zhang Guang managed to lipread what he said.
Bring it on!
The few Sage Rulers were surprised.
“Very well, Chu Kuangren. How bold of you to challenge us at a time like this!”
“I want to see how he can survive this time!”
“Hold your horses. Let’s have the Overlord Sage Tribe and the troops from Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands to test his capabilities first,” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said, composed.
“That works too.”
All the Sage Rulers nodded.
For them, this million-strong great army was, in truth, not that great. Their only value was to make the army look more powerful and spectacular.
It also made their forces look more majestic as they marched on.
After all, their purpose this time was to annihilate the Black Heaven Sect in front of the world. Hence, of course, they could not make themselves seem too shabby.
At the same time, these people were to be used as cannon fodders, to test Chu Kuangren and see how many cards he still had up his sleeves.
“Allow me to cast the Nine Profound Heavens Fire Forcefield first.”
Acheron Manor Lord said nonchalantly.
“Sure.”
…
In the Black Heaven Sect.
Chu Kuangren stood before the Longevity Hall, activating the Black Heaven Sect’s Mountain Protection Formation. He had a smug look on his face when he saw Graylord Sage and the others trying to breach his formation outside.
“These people are not going to break our formation without shedding some blood.”
“Brother Chu, the Black Heaven Sword Formation may be strong, but I’m afraid it’s not enough to challenge the unknown lands,” Immemorial Sage said worriedly.
“I’ve never intended to safeguard the Black Heaven Sect with this formation alone.”
Chu Kuangren took out a Celestial chalcedony tablet.
“This is my secret weapon!”
The people glanced at the tablet confusingly.
Only Elder Ruyan and a few others knew what he meant there.
All of a sudden.
A red light appeared high up in the sky, and an enormous crimson red forcefield appeared out of nowhere, covering the Black Heaven Sect in its entirety.
Chu Kuangren squinted his eyes slightly when he saw that. “Oh, it seems that they’re afraid that we might run away, so they’ve decided to entrap us here instead.”
He was not too surprised by that.
This time, the six great Sage Rulers had joined hands to kill him in one go, so they must have prepared a foolproof plan. They would never allow him to flee so easily.
However, it had never crossed his mind to run away from them.
“Let’s see whose tactics are more brilliant then.”
Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
After that, he slammed the stone tablet beside him.
The stone tablet radiated with dazzling brilliance, and a strange wave of energy flooded outward. With the Longevity Hall as its center, it rapidly spread across the whole Black Heaven Sect.
Large amounts of cloud mists suddenly appeared in every corner of the Black Heaven Sect and enshrouded the sect in it, rendering everyone’s vision limited.
This abrupt change astonished everyone.
“Where did these cloud mists come from?”
“These cloud mists seem a bit strange. It can even block my spiritual thought sense. Does the Black Heaven Sword Formation have this effect?”
“This is strange.”
“Don’t let your guards down, everyone.”
The crowd exchanged glances.
The six great Sage Rulers could not help but frown. Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said, “This cloud mists look like a Black Heaven Sect formation, but I can’t seem to tell which grade it is. How strange.”
“Are they planning to escape with these mists?”
“Hmph, I’ve already cast the Nine Profound Heavens Fire Forcefield. They can’t escape even if they have otherworldly abilities,” Acheron Manor Lord said confidently.
“Let’s stick to the original plan. Let the Overlord Sage Tribe and the people of Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands explore what it is first,” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang said after pondering for a moment.
At this moment, Graylord Sage and the rest of the people were attempting to breach the formation as well.
However, there were not many techniques that they could use against the Black Heaven Sword Formation. Despite a barrage of attacks by the Sages, they still could not break through this formation.
“My friends, if we still don’t breach this formation and show the Heavenly Golden Palace our value, our trip here this time will be futile.”
Graylord Sage explained before he took out a bottle of pills and consumed them.
The energy on his body suddenly increased by multiple folds!
“I heard the Overlord Sage Tribe has a kind of secret pill, which can elevate the power of their Overlord Physique in a short time. It seems to be true.”
Heavenly Emperor Sage Li exclaimed in admiration.
Then, a golden seal emerged in the middle of his palm, and magnificent energy permeated from it. That was a Sage Weapon!
“This formation shall be broken!”
Solar and Lunar Sages from the Outer Seas said with absolute certainty.
Daoist Rhymes circulated on their bodies and interweaved in the sky, turning into a bout of incredibly powerful solar lunar energy!
“That’s right. Not only do we want to breach this formation, but we want the Black Heaven Sect dead too!”
Eight Wind Palace’s Celestial Sage lifted one arm and ama.s.sed the spiritual qi from both heaven and earth. An enormous spiritual qi circle formed and smashed toward the sword formation!
The remaining few people cast their ultimate moves as well, unleas.h.i.+ng everything at the sword formation!
“Brilliant Heaven Shaking Punch!”
“Solar Lunar Double Barrage!”
“Heavenly Emperor Seal!”
Several forms of terrifying energy lambasted at the sword formation simultaneously, and its sheer power sent the entire Black Heaven Sect into quivers.
