Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 260 – Inscription (continued)

Even though the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side relied on the terrain of the Sunset Ridge’s Pass to do their utmost to maintain the formation, under the crazy attacks of the four opposing teams and six late stage martial arts realm cultivators, they had no choice but to retreat time and time again. In the process, three of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side’s cultivators had already fallen one after the other.

In fact, although the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s three teams were barely maintaining their formation, they were already at the end of their strength. The three teams were merely trying to maintain their formation.

“Liu Zhifei, how about you two retreat just like this? If this goes on, your three teams won’t be far from collapsing. At that time, you two might be faced with a massacre!”

However, his face showed no fear as he ridiculed loudly, “I think it would be best for you guys to retreat quickly. The six squads before and after you guys were trapped here by us, I’m afraid Opening Spirit School’s stronghold has already been breached by us long ago, and now that you two have rushed over, it might be better for you to retreat just like this. At least, you two would be able to protect your entire six squads from getting hit on the head.”

“Liu Zhifei, I only wanted to leave yoath of life, since you do not know how to appreciate favors, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Seeing Liu Zhifei being so tenacious, they took a step forward and blocked Liu Zhifei’s desperate attack. Clearly, he was the same as Liu Zhifei, who was about to reach the fifth stage of the martial arts realm, and spoke loudly: “Opening Spirit School and all members of the Sirius Gate, let’s forget about this battle achievement for the six late stage martial arts realm cultivators. As long as you pass through this three Heaven-Shaken Sect team, I will give all of our battle achievements to you!”

Sirius Gate and Opening Spirit School also had rewards for killing Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivators. Although the rewards weren’t as high as Heaven-Shaken Sect’s, to the cultivators of the two sects, they were still attractive enough, so the morale of the cultivators of the two sects were even higher. The pressure on Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side became greater and greater, and they were retreating all the way, looking like they were going to give up the entire pass.

Just as the leader of the Opening Spirit School cultivators shouted out the rewards, the Sirius Gate and the cultivators of the Opening Spirit School surged forward.

The leading cultivator had blocked Liu Zhifei by himself, but had let go of Zheng Qingyuan. Seeing that the Heaven-Shaken Sect was already in a precarious situation, Zheng Qingyuan naturally wanted to personally push the last straw to the side. Previously, when they had been ambushed by the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the squad he led had been reduced by more than half.

“Go to hell!”

Zheng Qingyuan rushed towards the three groups of Heaven-Shaken Sect who had lost the protection of the late stage martial arts realm. He wanted to personally destroy the confidence of the entire Heaven-Shaken Sect’s resistance squad.

Then, a ball of spiritual light rose up in front of his eyes. It wasn’t just in front of his eyes. His left, right, back, even the top of his head and the sky seemed to have turned earthen yellow all of a sudden.

“This is …” Formation?

Zheng Qingyuan was shocked, then he remembered a piece of news that was spread among the border guards. It was about a formation master appearing among the border guards on the side of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, could it be …

In the end, Zheng Qingyuan was still an inner disciple of the Opening Spirit School. Even though he was extremely afraid of encountering a formation master, he still reacted immediately.

The cultivators who were trapped in the formation could either start attacking at once and forcefully break the formation’s shackles with their own strength; or they could just firmly defend and wait for their companions to rescue them. The only thing they didn’t want was to hesitate or be indifferent to the situation.

Even though his spiritual consciousness was being distorted by the powerful yellow light that was circulating in the array, he still ordered the spirit tools in his hands to explode in all directions. The inheritance spirit technique of the Opening Spirit School was known for its gorgeous colors, but this burst of power caused the surrounding yellow light to simultaneously churn the world upside down.

However, for such a large scale Spiritual Array, it would be difficult for Yang Junshan to think of silently activating it. It would take a very long time to prepare, and other people who were not array masters would not be able to do it on their behalf, so Yang Junshan could only do it on his own.

Under their helplessness, the three Heaven-Shaken Secad no choice but to put on a posture of doing their best to resist. Not only did they try to lure the other party into falling into their trap, more importantly, they tried to buy time for Yang Junshan to activate the formation.

Fortunately, Yang Junshan’s cultivation was only at the second stage, but the technique he was practising, [Wutu Spiritual Art], was known for its rich accumulation of spirit energy. When it came to storage of spirit energy, Yang Junshan was confident that he would not be weaker than the third stage cultivators who had condensed the evil qi, thus causing the defensive formation underneath his feet to be completely activated the moment his three small teams were about to collapse. The large magnetic light Formation was finally activated, half of the entrances of the Sunset Ridge were enveloped by the golden magnetic light, and the three small teams suddenly disappeared before his eyes.

However, the moment they fell into the formation, they finally heard the cries of the temporary leader from the Opening Spirit School, “Not good, it’s a formation. Everyone …”

The spiritual light sealed off the surroundings, and the voice abruptly stopped. The two sects’ cultivators who were trapped in the formation immediately became flustered. The leader informed them of the danger they were facing, but the second half of his words were cut off by the formation.

There were even people who panicked like frightened birds. The surrounding scene was completely covered up by the array, regardless of whether it was in the north, south, west, or even the west, as if there was danger everywhere. Immediately, the sacred art in their hands was thrown in all directions, and miserable cries sounded out, but the vast majority of them were fighting with each other.

They had actually fallen into a formation, and there were actually some mysterious formation masters in the cultivation world that were so famous for making them enemies!

The more the cultivators of the two sects panicked, the more fierce their attacks became due to fear. They had no idea that the people killed were all cultivators of their own side.

When Yang Junshan was activating the formation, more than half of the spirit energy in his body had been consumed. Not only did he had a ghastly pale complexion, he looked as if he might collapse at any moment.

Following the guidance of the formation, the three squadrons, Liu Zhifei, Chi Ben and Ji Chenglin reunited with Yang Junshan very quickly. Liu Zhifei was immediately overjoyed as he said, “Good job, Xiao Yang.”

“The situation now is very bad!”

Yang Junshan’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper. After he casually threw a crystal wall into his mouth and bit into it, “Ga beng beng”, he took in a huge gulp and spat out the jade crystal dregs in his mouth. Most of the spirit energy in the jade crystal dregs had already been sucked dry by him.

Liu Zhifei and the other two clearly did not expect that Yang Junshan would be so extravagant as to use such a “Spirit Attraction Secret Technique” to absorb the spirit energy from the jade as fast as possible to recover from the depletion of their spirit energy.

The Spirit Absorption Secret Technique was a method for cultivators to quickly absorb and replenish the spirit energy in their body through the Jade Coins and the jade coins. However, even though the spirit energy that was replenished by this technique was extremely fast, a large portion of the spirit energy contained within was wasted.

But because of this, when Yang Junshan told them that the situation was terrible, the three of them did not question him and waited for him to explain.

Yang Junshan laughed bitterly and said: “The array itself is fine, but I still forgot about my own abilities. I have trapped so many people, I’m afraid this array will not last for long!”

Of the three, Tang Wulin was the most impatient, so he couldn’t help but ask: “Then what do we do?”

Yang Junshan said: “The previous plan cannot be used, if not, although it will most likely protect our safety, we will not be able to kill more than a few people. Once I can’t hold on, and the formation collapses, we will still be at a disadvantage, and will instead be met with an even more intense counterattack!”

Ji Chenglin was surprised. He hesitantly shook his head and said, “No, you can’t maintain the array while taking into account all the cultivators that enter the array to kill us. You will definitely be severely injured in such a chaotic battle!”

Yang Junshan panicked when he heard it, “We can only kill them as quickly as possible, kill as many as we can! If not, once the array is broken, we will die even more!”

“We’ll do it that way!”

Liu Zhifei glanced at Yang Junshan, and the light that flickered in his eyes made Yang Junshan’s heart jump, but he quickly returned his gaze back, and Liu Zhifei said: “Little Yang is right, we are taking it too seriously, there are almost fifty Martial Realm Cultivator here, and other than the Adept Realm Cultivator, no one else can stop them, let everyone attack and kill. No matter what, the formation is in Little Yang’s hands, and the advantage lies with us!”

Just as Liu Zhifei finished speaking, he suddenly heard ghost-like howls of slaughter coming from all four directions of the array formation. Yang Junshan was startled at first, but after that he became happy and said: “The two groups of cultivators have started their own fight, oh, it’s a free-for-all!”

The three teams looked at each other, and Ji Chenglin’s face revealed a hint of happiness as if he wanted to say something. However, Liu Zhifei waved his hand and said directly, “Call everyone into the formation. He Yang has just avoided Little Yang’s formation, and he will take action very soon. I’ll go stop him first!”

Liu Zhifei rushed out of the array, while the other two squads of people led their men to attack the array, and at the same time, a violent vibration suddenly came from the array, the array disc below their feet split open and a line appeared on it, Yang Junshan’s face changed drastically as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
