Chapter 317: Wanxiang Tianyan Formation
Chapter 317: Wanxiang Tianyan Formation
Under the dusk, Baihe Mountain was like a giant beast about to wake up, lurking in the darkness.
The previous confidence was no longer visible on Xuanzu's face, and cold sweat even began to seep out of his forehead.
The long-lost feelings that kept coming back to him made him realize the danger of this place, and he began to have the idea of retreating.
Put aside the grand words you said before climbing the mountain. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to go back like this?
Now is not the time to think about that.
As he was locked by that gaze, the space around him was locked, as if an invisible giant hand was holding him tightly, making him unable to move.
Alarm bells rang in his heart. It seemed that some crisis was brewing in the forest at night.
Veins bulged on Xuanzu's forehead, and he clenched his hands into fists, mobilizing all his strength to try to break free from the invisible hand's confinement.
The fiery red energy surrounded his body. He was like a flame lingering in the snow, being whipped by the cold wind. No matter how hard he tried to strengthen himself, he was always on the edge of extinction.
Not long after, the chill around them quickly dissipated, replaced by a burning sensation.
A deafening roar exploded below, and Xuanzu's heart was shaken. He followed the sound and turned his head with difficulty to look, only to see a sturdy fire dragon rushing out from a corner of the mountain with a power that seemed to be able to destroy everything.
Lava was flowing on the fire dragon's body. Wherever it passed, the wind and snow melted. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Xuanzu's body in an instant, then crashed straight into the inky sky.
After more than ten seconds, the fire dragon's body gradually became smaller and finally disappeared completely. The wind and snow quickly filled the gap caused by its collision and burning, as if nothing had happened.
A clear spring began to gush out from the pit where the fire dragon had rushed out, and soon the steaming spring water filled the entire pit.
This is exactly the hot spring that Xiao soaked in when he went up the mountain to find the mountain temple.
……
At the foot of the mountain, the fiery red light transformed by Xuan Zu rushed towards the top of the mountain, leaving a dazzling trail in the night sky, attracting everyone to look up.
Finally, the stream of light plunged into the clouds and disappeared.
"Go in."
Looking at the dark clouds on the mountainside, Xiao still remembered that it was after he entered the clouds that he triggered the no-fly zone and was blown away by the cold wind.
It seems that once you reach the god level, you are no longer afraid of this kind of restriction.
However, he felt that Xuanzu would not be faced with only these challenges.
Just as I was thinking this, the ground suddenly began to shake slightly.
"There was an earthquake?!"
A somewhat panicked voice sounded. Xiao turned around and found that City Lord Bai's face was pale.
The people in Baihe City, especially those of a certain age, all believed that the earthquake was caused by the anger of the mountain god.
Along the way, City Lord Bai was worried that Xuanzu would anger the mountain god if he went into the mountain. Now that his worry has come true, it is impossible for him not to be panicked.
Since Xuanzu cannot enter the mountain, the plan discussed before is completely useless and everything has to be reconsidered.
Something strange has happened in the city and they don't have much time left.
As for the fact that Xuanzu withstood the anger of the mountain god and successfully reached the top of the mountain, he had never considered this possibility from the beginning.
The real show is about to begin.
Xiao muttered to himself, his gaze moving away from City Lord Bai and towards the top of the mountain again.
After more than ten seconds, the vibration suddenly intensified and a buzzing sound entered Xiao's ears.
I saw a fiery red beam of light bursting out from the mountain, like a red-hot iron rod, piercing through the clouds and shooting towards the end of the night.
Feeling the terrifying power emanating from the beam of light, the faces of the two soldiers present changed drastically.
Only a god-level strongman can launch an attack of this level. According to the impression that Xuanzu left on the two people, the person who launched this attack is even stronger than Xuanzu.
They looked at each other, and finally Ye Lingchuan spoke first: "Xuan Zu is not an ordinary god-level strongman, he should be fine."
Xiao had never seen Xuan Zu take action in person, so he didn't know his opponent's strength. Now that he heard what Ye Lingchuan said, he also understood the final result -
Xuanzu failed in his challenge to the mountain god.
He knew that things would not be resolved so easily.
After a while, Xuanzu returned to the foot of the mountain, his whole body wrapped in smoke. The pale yellow robe he was wearing was made of rare treasures and was of extraordinary quality. At this time, it was also smoked into a black robe by the flames, and he looked very embarrassed.
He seemed to have seen something unbelievable, his eyes widened, and he kept muttering: "There are relics from the era of extinction here?! The emperor who ruled here dared to separate a city's faith and try to support a true god?!"
The Age of Extinction? True God?
Xuanzu spoke in a low voice, but it did not escape Xiao's ears.
Xiao's eyes swept across everyone present. He knew that the atmosphere was not right and it was not appropriate to ask questions, so he silently memorized the two words and planned to ask them later.
Seeing Xuanzu, a powerful god-level warrior, in such an embarrassed state, the others present didn't know whether to comfort him first, or get straight to the point and ask what had just happened on the mountain.
"It's really weird."
The first person to speak was Mo Zuche. As soon as he spoke, he attracted everyone's attention. "Even a god-level warrior couldn't force his way in. How could an emperor-level envoy move freely in the mountains?"
Xuan Zu came back to his senses, his eyes moved slightly, and he sneered, "Of course it's because the restrictions in the mountain have been eroded, and now it has become the weapon of the messenger. The restrictions set in the mountain are the Wanxiang Tianyan Formation. The controller of the formation is the way of heaven in the formation and can do anything. If the restrictions are not broken as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."
"Wanxiang Tianyan Formation?" City Lord Bai was a little confused. This was the first time he heard this name.
After some doubts, he refuted with absolute certainty: "It's impossible. The mountain god will not be so easily deceived by evil spirits. He has been clearing out evil spirits. Every earthquake represents His action."
Ye Lingchuan also nodded slightly and confirmed: "I did see hot air gushing out from the ground during the earthquake, evaporating all the Agents and Servants on the field."
After hearing Ye Lingchuan's description, Xiao suddenly recalled that he had seen a similar scene.
At that time, some enemies were coming to check out the hot spring where he was hiding. Before they arrived, an earthquake occurred in the mountains. After the earthquake stopped, he went out to check and saw that the snow on the ground had melted, and there was still heat remaining on the cracked ground.
Recalling this, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He wanted to grab it, but caught nothing.
"Earthquake?" Xuan Zu lowered his head, as if he had heard a joke, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. "Then have you noticed that the situation is getting worse, but the frequency of earthquakes is getting lower and lower?"
"It seems... it's really like that." Fang Chongguang thought for a while and nodded heavily.
"I have heard a little bit about the Wanxiang Tianyan Formation you mentioned."
Just when everyone was about to be convinced by Xuanzu, Mo Zuche suddenly brought the topic back to the original one.
"Oh? What do you know?" Xuanzu looked at Mozuche, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
He didn't know the latter's identity and experience. To be precise, he didn't care about most of the things here. It was not until now that he suddenly realized that it seemed that every time Ye Lingchuan organized a meeting, he met the other party in the conference room.
Mo Zuche spoke slowly: "As far as I know, this formation cannot be changed. The formation is intact and the people are alive. If the formation is destroyed, the people will die."
"Erosion will bring about changes and distort the rules. If it falls into the hands of the Order, things that were originally impossible can become feasible."
Mo Zuche seemed to have expected the other party to say this, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "But as far as I know, this formation imitates the Eclipse Dream World. The most basic rules are the same as the Eclipse Dream World, and therefore cannot be distorted or tampered with."
