Chapter 1972: Chapter 1965: Tianyan Formation Map
"Help me see if there are any warcraft like squid, my mother-in-law likes to eat squid!"
"Oh, by the way, my wife likes to eat the kind of fish with bouncy flesh, keep an eye out for me, and bring back a couple!"
"That warcraft just now that looked like a shark, have its fins chopped off for me, we’ll take them back to make soup. It looks so delicious!"
...
Zhang Menglong and others roamed the battlefield, selecting warcrafts, occasionally taking out a few ignorant ones, appearing at ease.
"Gu Xiao..." Ji Ze looked at Zhang Menglong, almost grinding his teeth in frustration.
Others were fighting desperately, yet he was loafing around with the Sunset Sect here, as if he treated this battlefield like a seafood market, seemingly restocking! He completely disregarded the Divine Profound Hall.
As the beast army gradually retreated, the coalition warriors finally arrived at the city gate. Although they appeared very tired, with some even bearing injuries, their morale was still high.
That Beast King’s Strategy had now become somewhat dull. Sealed within was the will of an ancient warcraft, far stronger than the Nine Hell Beasts, potentially nearing an Ultimate Life Form in that era.
Of course, the Beast King’s Strategy also had its limitations, with a long cooldown period after each use, as those wills were consumables! The strategy couldn’t summon a massive beast army again anytime soon.
But Ji Ze had already achieved part of his goal, not expecting these beasts to block the coalition warriors completely, as long as they sapped their strength and resources, a portion of his objective was fulfilled.
"Ji Ze, it seems your Beast King’s Strategy isn’t so formidable," Lieyang of the War God Palace swallowed a few elixirs. The War Shackles placed a considerable burden on his body and energy, but after the elixirs, his complexion immediately turned rosy.
He glanced at Zhang Menglong still messing around, acting like a seafood market boss, rolling his eyes helplessly, refocusing on the Divine Profound Hall. "This era doesn’t have many powerful warcraft; the Beast King’s Strategy is practically useless. If it were the former age with Nine Hell Beasts roaming widely, it might have posed a larger problem for us."
"Palace Master Lieyang, don’t be too eager," Ji Ze said, "this was just an appetizer for you. Why not experience the Tianyan Formation Map from the Tianji Pavilion!"
Ji Ze remained calm, forming a mystical hand seal. Subsequently, a formidable formation began to manifest in his palm, expanding to cover the gate of the Divine Profound Hall.
"Everyone, taste the power of this Tianyan Formation Map!" Ji Ze pointed slightly forward with his finger, instantly assembling a massive fist akin to a demon god’s, aimed at War God Palace Master Lieyang.
Lieyang was frightened by this sudden attack, the power in this punch startled even him.
He had just donned the War Shackles when the fist crashed onto him. Struggling like against a giant, the fist’s force pressed him toward the ground, his bones creaking under the pressure.
"If you can withstand this, then how about another?" Ji Ze lightly tapped his finger again, stacking a second fist atop the first, causing Lieyang’s body to sink again suddenly.
"The third hit!"
"The fourth hit!"
...
Formations are powerful due to their ability to absorb any energy from the heavens and the earth, sufficient to sustain endless operation. The Guardian of the formation only needs minimal power to deploy a massive force to aid in battle.
This Tianyan Formation Map was painstakingly created by the founder of the Tianji Pavilion, its power surpassing any existing formations in the pavilion.
The fifth punch finally broke Lieyang’s limit, fiercely thrusting him into the ground; yet, this only represented part of the formation’s potency.
Ji Ze let out a cold laugh again, and this time, the fists rained down like raindrops, the ground resembling a terrain ravaged by machine gunfire, except the fists were many times larger than bullets, transforming the area into a region of quicksand.
"Rescue!" Other sect masters, seeing this, immediately turned to the Hall Master of the Tiankui Hall. Their power was on par with Lieyang, lacking the strength to save him; only the Blood Demon Soldier could assist now.
The Hall Master of Tiankui Hall knew this as well and immediately commanded the Blood Demon Soldier.
"Hmph!" Ji Ze, seemingly prepared for the Blood Demon Soldier, formed another seal. The soldier collided violently with an invisible wall, causing ripples in the space from the intense impact.
"What’s happening?" Everyone tightened their brows.
"It seems like a kind of forbidden barrier-based formation!"
"Break it!" The Hall Master of Tiankui Hall appeared extremely confident in the Blood Demon Soldier; typical Dao Realm peak levels’ energy, amplified by 200 times, should break through most formations.
The Blood Demon Soldier raised its fist, striking the formation, yet it only resulted in more ripples.
A hint of confusion flashed in the Blood Demon Soldier’s eyes. Though a puppet, it maintained the thinking ability of a human Martial Artist, unconditionally obedient to its master’s orders, yet with conscious awareness during task execution.
To the Blood Demon Soldier, this invisible wall halting its punch was astonishing — ordinary peak Dao Realm levels could destroy vast areas with a punch, yet it couldn’t shatter this wall!
"Hahaha, without the Blood Demon Soldier, what capabilities do you have now?" Ji Ze seemed like a cat toying with a mouse.
"War Shackles!"
Lieyang, using his last energy, activated the War Shackles, sharing his power with others.
With the power doubled, ten thousand warriors with several times the strength of regular peak Dao Realm levels immediately advanced to the rescue.
However, formations, inherently meant for widespread destruction, retain devastating power even with extended ranges!
Ten thousand warriors immediately went forward, trying to rescue Lieyang from beneath the endless fists, yet they underestimated the power of the Tianyan Formation Map. Each attack of this formation was equivalent to ten times the energy of an ordinary Dao Realm warrior, and even with the War Shackles, they couldn’t counteract it.
Boom, boom, boom!
The warriors who came to rescue suffered the same fate as Lieyang, being pounded into the ground by the relentless punches, then ruthlessly battered by the storm.
"Why is the Tianyan Formation Map so powerful?" Seeing this, almost everyone felt a sense of retreating sprouting within.
Ji Ze’s gaze revealed pride, "Even if you unite, so what? You’re merely a mob; if not for the Hall Master engaging in critical tasks, when would you have the chance to be insolent at the Divine Profound Hall?"
"It appears our Divine Profound Hall has been too lenient with you. Opportunities were given, yet if you choose obstinacy, once the Hall Master completes his important task, it will be the day your sects vanish entirely from the continent!"
