Chapter 420 In a desperate situation
The core formation of this secret realm was set up by the legendary Saint Emperor Guiyuan, a being whose power was no less than that of the Jade Emperor of Heaven.
And most importantly, the purpose of setting up this formation was to protect the inheritance because he knew that his own defeat could not be changed.
It can be said that everything in this secret realm has cost Saint Emperor Guiyuan a great deal of effort.
Although the Jade Emperor's Seven Absolute Formations were also created by the Half-Step Heavenly Sovereign and are extremely powerful, they are still slightly inferior to the core formation here.
The most important thing is not the essential difference in the formation, but the fact that this place has complete formation patterns and formation eyes, and the core of the formation also has sufficient energy supply - that royal spiritual vein.
With a royal spiritual vein as its energy source, this formation is enough to suppress ordinary Yuanxian masters even if no one is controlling it.
Now, with the support of Chai Xin, a figure whose strength is comparable to that of a True Dragon Yuanxian, his power is enough to threaten even the top Yuanxian.
If not for the fact that everyone here is a top-level Yuanxian figure, Chai Xin could even rely on this core formation to capture all of them in one fell swoop.
"However, these people are strong enough, so it's not a bad thing...
“Although I cannot take them all down at the moment, as long as I devour enough Dragon Clan Ancestral Immortals and advance to the Ancestral Immortal realm, my strength will surely surge again.
"By then, these guys will be my further help!"
Chai Xin's mind moved, and he immediately used all his strength to activate the formation here.
"Rumble..."
Loud noises like thunder suddenly resounded in the void, and everyone immediately saw that the secret patterns that appeared and disappeared in the void in the core area suddenly shone brightly.
Even the royal-grade spiritual vein that had been dormant in the depths of the void and relatively calm all the time suddenly went berserk, and the rich primordial energy within it all instantly boiled over.
"Something's wrong. What's going on?"
"How strange! What happened? Could it be that a great battle among the powerful men triggered the protective formation here?"
"Retreat quickly! The guardian formation has been activated. If you stay here any longer, you will be killed if you are affected!"
After seeing this scene, many geniuses from the immortal world who had retreated to the periphery of the core area, while talking endlessly, also decisively began to retreat further.
Although all of them are talented figures in their sects and families, and some are the backbone of the ancestral immortal realm, they are simply unable to intervene in this battle with their individual strength.
"How dare you, the dragon clan villain, invade my fairyland? Today I will teach you a lesson: you will never return!"
Suddenly, a cold roar sounded like thunder.
Before everyone could react, a tall and majestic figure slowly stepped out from the depths of the void, bathed in pure white holy light, like a flawless ancient god of war.
"How dare you, an ant-like thing, speak so brazenly? You are really courting death!"
"My dragon race is the greatest race in the world. We are born high and mighty. How can we allow a bug like you to insult us?"
"Kill! Kill that ignorant fellow. Use his blood and life to wash away the shame he brought to our clan!"
The dragon clan is such a proud being. Even the mixed-blood dragon clan has long considered themselves superior and viewed other clans as grass.
Even the gods are nothing more than that in their eyes and are the objects they will inevitably rule in the future.
Being scolded and insulted in public, these dragons immediately became furious and wanted to kill whoever came.
"Zhou Ling! It's actually Zhou Ling from Shenzhou Sect! How dare he get involved in the fight between Yuanxian strongmen?"
"What a strong aura! It's only been a short while, but Zhou Ling is even stronger than when he killed the Divine Prison Enforcer last time!"
Many people who had witnessed Zhou Ling's battle before exclaimed in disbelief.
"When did Junior Brother Zhou become so strong? I only heard rumors and thought they must be exaggerated. I didn't expect the actual situation to be even more shocking than the rumors!"
“Tsk tsk, I’m afraid I can’t call him Junior Brother anymore… Looking at the fluctuations in his aura right now, I’m afraid he’s even stronger than many Ancestral Immortal Elders. Even the First Saint Son of the sect definitely doesn’t have such strength!”
"Humph, so what? He actually dared to interfere in the battle between the Yuanxian strongmen. He must be able to survive before he can be promoted to the new First Holy Son..."
These were the disciples of the Shenzhou Sect. When they saw that Junior Brother Zhou, who had been mediocre before, suddenly displayed such great power, they all had mixed emotions.
Some felt that they had vindicated their sect which had been aggrieved for a long time, while others felt that their limelight had been stolen and were jealous.
But no matter what their attitude was in their hearts, they had to admit that the junior brother Zhou in front of them was far stronger than them.
"Zhou Ling? Are you still alive?"
Immortal Mo Yun, who was in the middle of a fierce battle, heard the discussions of the people around him and naturally understood who the young man who suddenly appeared was.
"Although you are a genius, you are not qualified to participate in this battle. Retreat quickly... As long as you have the green mountains, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood!"
As an elder of the Shenzhou Sect, although Immortal Venerable Mo Yun had never met Zhou Ling before, he was happy that such a stunning genius had emerged in the sect, and of course did not want him to die.
Being able to kill the ancestral immortal and several Divine Prison law enforcers alone is enough to prove Zhou Ling's excellence.
There is no need to be brave enough to face such an irresistible risk as the one before us.
"Don't worry, elder. I'm not trying to be brave!"
Since Chai Xin wanted to disguise himself as Zhou Ling, he naturally had to pay attention to details. He responded politely, but his men kept moving.
"Seniors, just focus on fighting the old dragon. Leave these ignorant little loaches and bugs to me!"
“Zhou Ling, don’t be reckless! You don’t know how powerful this is. The eighteen dragon ancestors have already formed a formation and are one with the old dragon…”
Immortal Master Mo Yun was extremely anxious, thinking that Zhou Ling's strength had increased dramatically in a short period of time, and that he had become too inflated and had lost his original intention, so he hurriedly stopped him again.
However, he stopped abruptly after only saying half of his words.
"How dare you, a bunch of evil beasts, invade my fairyland? Today I will sacrifice you to the heavens as a warning to others!"
Chai Xin roared again, and at the same time, the holy light gushing out of his body was like clouds. The majestic Golden Immortal Laws derived from the void, like huge mountains, stretching between heaven and earth.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure enveloped all directions. When those so-called geniuses saw such a heaven-defying Golden Immortal Law, they all felt their scalps tingling and were speechless for a long time.
Each Golden Immortal Law is as thick as a mountain, and is as high as the mountains in the Immortal Realm that are millions of feet high. This is completely beyond everyone's cognition.
Even in ancient books, there are few such exaggerated records.
But such a thing actually happened right before their eyes.
Even those powerful Yuanxian masters, including the True Dragon Ancestor, couldn't help but feel shocked.
Their knowledge is deeper and broader, and they know that only by possessing such powerful Golden Immortal Laws can they have a chance to advance to the Immortal Realm, or even become a Half-Step Heavenly Monarch!
Even they themselves, when they were at the Golden Immortal realm, had never possessed such a powerful Golden Immortal Law. So although they were very conceited, they also understood that if they could achieve Saint Immortal in this life, they would be satisfied.
As for reaching the higher realm of immortality, there is absolutely no hope at all unless there is a Heavenly Sovereign who is willing to personally give them an initiation, or unless they encounter an equally heaven-defying opportunity.
As for the legendary Half-Step Heavenly Monarch, they dare not even dream of it. Even if the Heavenly Monarch wanted to help them, he was powerless.
A Half-Step Heavenly Sovereign, whose lifespan is as long as the heaven and earth, can be called an emperor or ancestor in the fairy world. It is rare for one to be born in billions of years.
One era is only 129.6 trillion years, which is also the lifespan of heaven and earth.
When the great catastrophe of the era comes, only the beings of Heavenly Sovereign and above can survive it safely. This is why the status of Heavenly Sovereign is so transcendent and he does not care much about the development of the forces under his command.
No matter how powerful a force is, it will still be reduced to ashes at the end of an era.
Usually, only three to five Heavenly Sovereigns are born in one era; even the Half-Step Heavenly Sovereigns who live as long as heaven and earth, only number about a hundred at most.
Those who can achieve the status of Half-Step Heavenly Monarch are peerless evildoers rarely seen in billions of years; and those who can achieve the status of Heavenly Monarch are sons of destiny that only three or five appear in an era.
The strength that Chai Xin has shown now is comparable to the performance of many emperors when they were young, and is even better than that.
Of course, this only means that he currently has the potential to reach that level.
As for how far we can go in the future, no one can predict.
Often, among ten thousand geniuses with such potential, only one or two can truly reach that level. This is the norm in the world of cultivation.
However, disciples with such potential are the true core successors no matter which major force they are placed in, and they will definitely be cultivated with all their efforts.
Even if one cannot achieve the status of a Half-Step Heavenly Monarch, as long as one can cultivate to become an Immortal, he will be able to become the backbone of a top force.
After all, no matter whether it is a Half-Step Heavenly Sovereign or a Heavenly Sovereign, they basically will not interfere in various mundane affairs unless it comes to the critical moment of life and death of the entire force.
Saint Immortals and Supreme Immortals are the top fighting forces of all major sects under normal circumstances.
"Retreat quickly!"
After being stunned for a ten-millionth of a second, Zhenlong Yuanxian came to his senses and realized that the human from the Golden Immortal Realm who suddenly appeared in front of him actually possessed strength that was no less than his own.
The most important thing is that there seems to be an extremely amazing power in the other party's body, which makes him behave rudely as a whole, even to a level that even he feels afraid of!
If the eighteen dragon ancestors were to fight it head-on, even with the amplification of the Dragon God's Demon Subduing Formation, I'm afraid there would be heavy casualties.
However, his reminder was too late after all.
After the Eighteenth Ancestral Immortals obtained the enhancement of the Dragon God Demon Subduing Formation, they realized that they could actually participate in the battle among the most powerful Yuan Immortals, and their confidence inevitably swelled.
When they suddenly heard Chai Xin scolding them in person, and the other party was just a little fellow in the Golden Immortal Realm, of course they were unwilling to endure it for a moment, and they all rushed up without hesitation.
Of course, no one who can cultivate to the Ancestral Immortal realm is a fool.
They knew in their hearts that since Chai Xin dared to openly challenge a group of ancestral immortals with the body of a golden immortal, he must be relying on something.
So they had no intention of fighting one-on-one, and just attacked together with all eighteen of them.
In their opinion, even if you have some powerful hidden cards that are unknown to the public, how can you escape the combined efforts of the eighteen of us, the Dragon Clan Immortal Ancestors?
What's more, they also have the combat power bonus of the Dragon God's Demon Subduing Formation!
In fact, not only the Eighteen Immortal Ancestral Immortals, but even the True Dragon Ancestor, had the same idea at the previous moment.
It's not their fault for being too stupid, it's just that Chai Xin's strength is beyond the limit that can be expected under normal circumstances -
Who would have dared to think before that a Golden Immortal boy could possess the strength that even True Dragons and Yuan Immortals would be afraid of?
Didn't Immortal Mo Yun from the Shenzhou Sect just try to stop Chai Xin from acting rashly, fearing that he might get into an accident?
"Want to retreat? It's too late!"
Chai Xin's voice was like a loud bell, and the long spear transformed from the God-killing Halberd turned into a stunning light. The vast power of the Golden Immortal Law was instantly gathered and condensed at the tip of the spear.
The dazzling divine light was like a scorching sun, rising slowly from the tip of the spear. The endless holy light engulfed all the eighteen dragon ancestors.
"No! This is impossible!"
"He is just a human Golden Immortal, how can he be so strong?"
"Ancestor, help me..."
In the last moment when they were submerged by the holy light, these dragon ancestors finally felt unprecedented fear in their hearts.
They found that they could no longer move their bodies, as if they were being pressed down by worlds, leaving them with no room to struggle.
The breath of death instantly enveloped all of them.
"How dare you do this, you evil creature!"
High in the sky, the True Dragon Ancestor who was fighting hard with the seven Yuan Immortals saw this scene. He was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. He couldn't help but let out a tearful roar, wishing he could eat Chai Xin alive.
This time, he led thousands of men to the fairyland with high spirits. At first, he slaughtered hundreds of geniuses in the fairyland at will, and thought that he would achieve countless merits in this trip.
However, he did not expect that in just half an hour, the situation was completely reversed, and all his subordinates were killed!
Thinking of this, he was filled with hatred, and his pair of golden eyes like lakes turned blood red.
"Hahaha, Mo Yun, your disciple from Shenzhou Sect did a great job. Without the support of the Eighteen Ancestral Immortals, this old dragon's formation can no longer hold up on its own!"
"Yes, he is at the end of his strength, and our victory is in sight!"
"That being said, we must not take it lightly. There's no guarantee that this old man won't go crazy when he's in dire straits. We must not capsize in the gutter and become a laughing stock for the younger generations!"
"Of course. If he wants to escape, that's fine. But if he goes crazy and uses desperate forbidden techniques at all costs, he might even drag one or two of us down with him. That's not worth it."
The seven Yuanxian powerful men clearly felt that the strength of the True Dragon Yuanxian in front of them had suddenly dropped by more than one level.
Obviously, the Eighteen Ancestral Immortals were killed by Chai Xin, and the Dragon God Demon Subduing Formation could no longer be maintained.
With just one move, with the support of the core formation, Chai Xin killed eighteen dragon ancestors.
It should be noted that these eighteen dragon ancestors are almost all invincible in the same level and can defeat ten enemies at once.
In other words, even if there were 180 ordinary Golden Immortals, they might not be able to stop them!
What's more, he was under the blessing of the Dragon God Demon Subduing Formation.
Even for an ordinary Yuanxian, it is impossible to kill them all with one strike.
But at this moment, Chai Xin did it!
