Chapter 278 Ju Liusun Enters the Earthly Fierce Formation
Outside the Ten Deadly Formations.
Zhao Jiang was furious. He never expected that these people from the Chan Sect would not only break the formation but also steal treasures.
He swept his furious gaze across the Twelve Golden Immortals, then flicked his sleeve and shouted:
"Today, I, Zhao Jiang, will make you people of the Chan Sect pay!"
Having said that, he disappeared into the formation.
At this moment, Yang Jiao and Mosquito Taoist, who were standing outside, were both busy, one looking up at the sky and the other looking down at the ground.
Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of the Vast Dharma, witnessed it with his own eyes, but he did not utter a single word, nor did he even defend his master's sect.
The main reason is that Master Ran Deng had already been humiliated by her, so he didn't want to embarrass himself by showing off.
So he kept quiet and went to collect Deng Hua's body alone in the back.
Ju Liusun, who had been scolded before even entering the battle, was completely innocent. Looking back at his fellow disciples, he was speechless.
After a long silence, he asked:
"Which disciple would like to go along?"
Ju Liusun's disciple was none other than the short and ugly Tu Xingsun, but this disciple was of great use, and Ju Liusun did not take him down the mountain with him.
To break through the formation, one person needs to be sacrificed.
However, apart from the Twelve Golden Immortals, there were less than ten fellow Daoists who came to help. It was clear that the later they entered the formation, the less likely anyone would be to offer sacrifices.
Therefore, Ju Liusun Daoren hurriedly volunteered to fight in the second battle.
As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples who had come with Deng Hua exchanged glances.
It wasn't that they were afraid of death, but rather that their Uncle-Master Ju Liusun was quite cunning, and they felt very uncomfortable when his gaze fell on them.
The most compassionate of the Twelve Golden Immortals was Dao Xing Tian Zun, who had three disciples: Wei Hu, Han Du Long, and Xue E Hu.
They were all dispatched by him to descend the mountain to assist Jiang Ziya when the Investiture of the Gods began.
Although all twelve Golden Immortals faced calamities, he was one of the few Taoists who did not want his disciples to help him overcome them.
Seeing that his senior brother Ju Liusun had no one to help him, and out of consideration for their shared sect, he glanced at Han Dulong and said:
"Would you be willing to lend your senior master a hand?"
Han Dulong was a resolute man, and he dared not refuse his master's order. He bowed and accepted the command.
Dao Xing Tianzun then said:
"Senior brother, my disciple is dull-witted. I hope you will protect me in the formation."
Ju Liusun, abandoning his previous seriousness, nodded and agreed with a smile.
Only Yang Jiao spat out a curse as she watched his back as he entered the Ten Deadly Formations.
This Ju Liusun not only refused to take his own disciple down the mountain to break the formation, but also used other people's disciples, allowed Tu Xingsun's evil deeds to go unchecked, and even arranged for his disciple to marry Deng Chanyu.
He later abandoned Taoism for Buddhism and became the Buddha Kṣāṭra, one of the Seven Buddhas of the Past.
Yang Jiao rolled her eyes and said to Mosquito Taoist:
"From now on, we'll be more efficient and more discreet when picking up treasures."
He then followed them into the Earthly Fiery Formation.
In the midst of the battle.
Like the crater of a volcano, the ground is cracked and lava flows from the walls.
The air was thick with the scent of flames, and countless plumes of dust rose up all around.
Zhao Jiang sat at the highest point, coldly looking at the two below, and said loudly:
"Fellow Daoist, let's break the formation!"
After he finished speaking, Ju Liusun remained motionless, focusing only on using his magic power to resist the impact of the malevolent energy that threatened to tear him apart at any moment.
Han Dulong cautiously dodged, shouting amidst the difficulties:
"Uncle-Master, how should we break the formation?"
The scene inside the formation is invisible from the outside.
Everyone waited anxiously, especially Dao Xing Tian Zun, whose disciple had gone inside. Suddenly, a bad premonition rose from the bottom of his heart.
He chanted incantations to calm his troubled mind.
Inside the formation, Han Dulong was repeatedly attacked by the baleful aura and cried out in distress:
"Uncle-Master!"
Ju Liusun then slowly began to move, hesitatingly taking the Immortal Binding Rope out of his sleeve.
Yang Jiao was astonished upon seeing this:
"There are so many Immortal Binding Ropes?"
She had initially thought there was only one magic weapon, but now she saw that Julusun was holding several in his hands.
No wonder this magic rope has appeared in the hands of many people in other famous works.
Ju Liusun Daoist took out one of the sticks and shot it straight at Zhao Jiang's face.
Zhao Jiang snorted coldly, neither dodging nor avoiding, but simply picked up a red banner from the table and gently shook it. Lava erupted from the ground, accompanied by thunder above.
The malevolent energy surged forth, entangling the Immortal Binding Rope within it, and before it could even touch Zhao Jiang, it instantly fell to the ground.
Without waiting for Ju Liusun to retrieve the Immortal Binding Rope, he did not hesitate.
The magic weapon vanished the instant it hit the ground!
Mosquito Taoist looked at Yang Jiao, who had told him to stay hidden when he entered the formation, and muttered:
"You're going to pick up the ones that aren't dead?"
He was horrified; the magic weapon vanished the moment it hit the ground!
He gritted his teeth and said:
"What a slanderous disciple of the Jie Sect! It is clearly your formation that can steal magical treasures, yet you are blaming my Chan Sect!"
At this moment, Yang Jiao suddenly took a deep breath.
Just now, seeing the magic weapon land, she was in a hurry and used the Treasure-Dropping Coin along with the Universe in Her Sleeve to finally put the Immortal-Binding Rope into her pocket.
Now, they've been backfired by the Fallen Treasure Coin.
She leaned against the Mosquito Taoist and began to whine and complain:
"If only I had stolen that umbrella before the four demon generals died."
I have no strength...
Ju Liusun became wary.
His gaze fell on Han Dulong, and he spoke persuasively:
"Nephew, the malevolent energy within the formation can destroy treasures. Your master can't stop it anymore, look..."
