Chapter 2059 - 1922: Consecutive Formation Breaks

Chapter 2059: Chapter 1922: Consecutive Formation Breaks

The Imperial Palace is vast, with each layer being a small world, full of opportunities and dangers.

After subduing an Immortal Elixir, Ye Fan and the others did not linger but continued to delve deeper, seeking the entrance to the next layer.

"Eh... Why is it foggy?"

Not long after, Bai Yan wolf suddenly exclaimed in surprise, its large, copper-bell eyes shooting out two silver beams, looking ahead.

Ye Fan and the others also realized that, unknowingly, they were already surrounded by mist.

This mist was very strange, appearing suddenly, and seemed to block the cultivators’ Divine Sense, even the Heavenly Eye couldn’t see through it.

When Divine Sense was extended into the mist, it was like entering chaos, unable to sense anything, as if in a void.

"We should reach the next layer’s entrance after passing through this fog, let’s speed up so others won’t get ahead."

With Bai Yan wolf leading the way, Ye Fan’s group and other trialists followed closely, navigating through the mist.

The fog grew denser, just a few meters away was a vast expanse of white, completely obscuring the view.

"Hiss!"

A spear’s edge flashed, and Ye Fan left a deep mark on the ground.

Because he sensed something was off, as if they were circling within the mist, delving deeper yet failing to find a way out.

Swoosh!

Half an hour later, Ye Fan’s expression changed suddenly, he discovered the mark he had left earlier.

"Damn wolf, did you lead us the wrong way? We’ve been going in circles!" Ye Fan said.

"Impossible!" Bai Yan wolf confidently declared, "This is just an illusion technique, how could it fool my Dharma Eye."

"See for yourself!"

Ye Fan hauled it over, showing it the mark he had made before.

"How could this be?"

Seeing the mark, Bai Yan wolf was dumbfounded.

Afterward, it became more serious, its old wolf eyes emitting a faint green light, connecting with the primordial source of the world, and layers of patterns gradually appeared in the mist, complex like a maze.

"Damn, I was careless, always the hunter, yet today the prey pecked me in the eye, didn’t notice it was a Mysterious Formation." Bai Yan wolf said regretfully.

Then, it revitalized, arrogantly saying, "Watch me break your Ghost Formation."

As soon as it finished speaking, it stretched out a large paw, sketching complex patterns in the void, embedding them in the maze’s patterns, forcibly opening a path.

Rumble...

Instantly, the world changed color, the mist roiled, revealing a mysterious path.

"A mere Mysterious Formation, thinking it can trap me."

Bai Yan wolf boasted shamelessly, seemingly forgetting that it was only after Ye Fan’s reminder that it noticed the formation’s existence. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Under its lead, the group quickly traversed this path, soon passing through the maze, reaching the entrance to the next layer’s underground palace.

Subsequently, they conquered three layers of the palace, slaying countless Yin Ghosts and Fierce Beasts, eventually arriving at the entrance to the ninth layer of the Imperial Palace.

At this moment, a large number of people were already gathered at the entrance to the ninth layer; Martial Immortal and Xiao Peng Emperor were present but hadn’t rashly entered.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, my apologies."

Bai Yan wolf grinned insincerely as it greeted everyone, its despicable appearance making many twitch with the urge to skin it for insoles.

This damned wolf, utterly detestable, and provoking such hatred!

The ninth layer’s entrance was vast, with a pair of stone gates towering over ten thousand feet high, inspiring awe.

Standing before the gates and looking up, it was impossible to see the top, wreathed in yellow clouds, layer upon layer, shrouded in mist.

The stone gates were engraved with many images, primitive ancestors worshipping the sun, moon, and thunder, revering deities, and various ancient beasts and rare insects.

Inside the stone gates was a scene of chaos, impossible to discern what lay beyond—whether it was the Ultimate Emperor Palace or something else entirely.

Bai Yan wolf cautiously approached, and as soon as it reached the stone gates, it felt a vast killing intent, causing every hair on its body to stand on end.

"Damn, as expected, inside the stone gates is a Chaos Killing Array, entering uninvited spells certain death!"

Bai Yan wolf quickly retreated, its face turning green, speaking with lingering fear.

The Chaos Killing Array can instantly kill a Saint; without understanding the Array Breaking Technique, even Quasi-Emperor level strong people cannot force through; they’d be obliterated by the Chaos Killing Array.

"Whoosh!"

Just then, some late-arriving trialists, not knowing the situation, rushed directly toward the stone gates, wanting to seize the initiative.

"Hiss!"

As soon as they charged into the stone gates, several beams of light suddenly slashed out from the chaos, and they were turned into ashes without even a groan.

"Hiss..."

Everyone gasped, faces full of shock and a sense of aftermath fear.

The abilities of those who rushed in were undoubtedly remarkable, their renowned prowess on the entire Xing Kong Gu Road warranted no less, otherwise, they wouldn’t dare force their way through the stone gates.

However, after entering, not even a splash was made before they silently became scattered dust, sending shivers through all who witnessed it.

"Fools!" Xiao Peng Emperor snorted disdainfully.

The Killing Array inside the stone gates was extremely terrifying; even with his Heavenly Eagle Extreme Speed, he didn’t dare to force his way through, those people were courting death.

"Hiss, hiss!"

His eyes shot out two beams of golden light, connecting with the Chaos Killing Array within the stone gates, attempting to find a safe path.

"Buzz!"

The void trembled, lines of patterns emerged, Martial Immortal’s hands moved, furrowed brows forming a river character, continuously deducing and contemplating the Array Breaking Technique.

However, after a moment, they all gave up; the Chaos Killing Array was profoundly mysterious, ever-changing, impossible to deduce, let alone break through.

"Boss, it’s your turn now." The Little Scoundrel Golden Divine Dragon said to Bai Yan wolf.

"Tch!" Bai Yan wolf sneered, "In this world, apart from complete Emperor-level Array Patterns, there’s no killing array I can’t break."

After saying this, Bai Yan wolf approached the stone gates, standing in a safe spot to begin breaking the array.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on it, watching how it would break the Chaos Killing Array that many found troublesome.

"Just a Wolf Demon, and it dares to dream of breaking the Chaos Killing Array, what arrogance."

"Indeed, even young Supremes like Xiao Peng Emperor and Martial Immortal couldn’t break the Killing Array, what could a Wolf Demon possibly do? Just a waste of time!"

Some trialists who were unaware of Bai Yan wolf’s abilities sneered, not believing it could succeed.

"How about you try then?"

Bai Yan wolf glanced sideways at them, teasingly speaking.

Silenced instantly, those people blushed fiercely, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."

Intricate and mysterious patterns were struck out by it, merging into the Stone Gate.

At this moment, Bai Yan wolf became solemn and serious, not daring to be careless.

"Boom!"

Moments later, the Stone Gate trembled, the ancient map on it shivering, primitive ancestors, unknown mutant beasts, and various creatures seeming ready to revive, emerging through the wall.

"Star Shifting, Qiankun Swapping, Yin Yang Inversion, Chaos Open!"

Bai Yan wolf bit its tongue, spraying a mouthful of Essence Blood, shouting loudly, its voice resonating with the way, shaking the ten directions.

Instantly, chaos inside the Stone Gate rolled like ocean waves, splitting apart to reveal a path, directly piercing through the chaos to reach the other shore.

"What?"

"It actually broke the Chaos Killing Array?"

"How is this possible?"

This scene shocked everyone, none had expected that the Chaos Killing Array they were helpless against was truly broken by a wolf, overturning their understanding.

"Go!"

Bai Yan wolf shouted loudly, transforming into a beam of Flowing Light, rushing into the Stone Gate first.

Ye Fan and others followed closely, traversing the path through chaos, crossing the Killing Array unharmed.

"Let’s go in too!"

Martial Immortal’s eyes flickered, leading his followers, entering the Stone Gate through the path Bai Yan wolf cleared.

"Swipe!"

Xiao Peng Emperor’s eyes shot out radiant light, arms spreading wide like a Giant Roc spreading wings, leading his followers into the Stone Gate.

Others also followed in, those trialists who had sneered at Bai Yan wolf were ashamed beyond measure, their mouths sealed tighter than anything.

Heat waves roared like the sea, killing intent like an ocean!

Just after traversing the Chaos Killing Array, Ye Fan and others felt a blistering high temperature capable of drying people, and penetrating, soul-piercing killing intent.

Not far ahead, there was a giant volcano, erupting not with magma but with purest Fire Essence, Fire Element Divine Chains condensing into Phoenixes, flying and chirping.

That bone-piercing, soul-penetrating killing intent was surging from the volcano’s mouth, chilling hearts.

Extreme heat and extreme cold intertwined, the ghastly killing intent made everyone feel as if a blade was at their neck.

Extreme Divine Fire!

The center of this volcano must contain Extreme Divine Fire, the best divine fire for a Great Emperor’s Weapon Refinement, its formation is a miracle under heaven!

Only Extreme Divine Fire can melt Immortal Gold, this place is likely where a Great Emperor refines weapons.

"Whoosh!"

Bai Yan wolf’s eyes glimmered green, using Chasing Star Step to transform into a beam of silver light, rushing toward the volcano’s mouth, aiming to seize the opportunity first.

"Boom!"

Killing intent like tides, fierce and unmatched, directly slashing at its Divine Soul, almost shattering it.

Simultaneously, a Phoenix flew over, bringing a sea of divine flames, almost turning its body into ashes.

"Aw-ooh..."

Bai Yan wolf let out a miserable howl, retreating even faster, its body charred, covered in cracks, and its silky white fur burned clean.

"Aw-ooh, it hurts this king!"

Bai Yan wolf grimaced, guzzling Divine Liquid to repair its wounded Divine Soul and body.

"Serves you right!" Golden Divine Dragon gloated, saying, "Who asked you to be so greedy, daring to snatch anything, now you’ve met retribution?"

"Shut up!"

Bai Yan wolf cursed, its body pain making it groan.

Great Demon and others were also very shocked, unsure of Bai Yan wolf’s power, but it had once followed Thunder Venerable.

The body tempered by Thunder Power was very solid, no less than Ye Fan’s Nine Heavens Profound Body, yet it couldn’t withstand the flames, simply unbelievable.

"Let me try!" Golden Divine Dragon was eager.

It believed it could withstand the flame burns, not ending up as pitiful as Bai Yan wolf.

Besides, it was akin to an Immortal, a Divine Beast only existing in legends, if it couldn’t withstand this high temperature, its existence would be in vain?

"You’re not qualified, let me go." Peacock coolly stopped Golden Divine Dragon, deciding to check itself.

Its Five-Colored Divine Flames were also a terrifying divine fire, likely on par with the Fire Essence erupting from the volcano.

"You all shouldn’t act rashly."

Ye Fan stopped Peacock, speaking seriously: "This volcano is very strange, if the visible flames are so terrifying, it’s hard to imagine what’s inside, I’ll investigate first!"
