The Fire Phoenix Clan Master, Yan Jiuxiao, took advantage of Lu Ping's frenzied pursuit to form a huge array formation around the magma lake where the living spirit veins converged. It was none other than the Sky Burning Inferno Array Formation! The Fire Phoenix Clan Master, Yan Jiuxiao, took advantage of Lu Ping's frenzied pursuit to form a massive array formation around the magma lake.
In the cultivation world, this was a peerless fire divine ability that could only be cultivated through the Mother-Child Earth Flame. However, the Fire Phoenix Clan actually had another way to cultivate and use it. This unique inheritance method of the Fire Phoenix Clan was obviously to transform the Grand Inferno Burning Heaven Formation into a gigantic formation. Its power was greater, its area of effect was wider, and its control was naturally more complicated. That was why Yan Jiuxiao had racked his brains to make use of Lu Ping's pursuit to destroy the nine volcanoes in succession.
At this moment, Lu Ping was trapped in such a gigantic formation by Yan Jiuxiao. In Yan Jiuxiao's eyes, the current Lu Ping was already a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
"What a grand plan! For the Fire Phoenix Clan's Patriarch to create such a huge formation just to deal with me, I, Lu Ping, am truly overwhelmed by your favor!"
Lu Ping's faint smile and deep emotion caused the Fire Phoenix Clan's Patriarch to feel extremely uneasy. This was not the expression a person who was in a desperate situation should have!
Although Yan Jiuxiao had some misgivings in his heart, now that the Grand Inferno Burning Heaven Formation had been completed, he believed that he was already in an invincible position. There was absolutely no reason for him to retreat now. He could only be certain that Lu Ping was just putting on a show.
That's right, he was definitely putting on a show, and could even be stalling for time. When they first met on Scarlet Mist Island, Lu Tianping still had cultivators from the same sect by his side. Those people must have already returned to ask for help. Although Zhenling didn't care about anyone other than Lu Tianping, there were still two great cultivators who would be troublesome if they rushed over.
Thinking of this, Yan Jiuxiao made a prompt decision. He clasped his hands together from the outside to the inside, and everything within the range of the Grand Inferno Burning Heaven Formation turned into a sea of fire. Moreover, this sea of fire was different from ordinary fire. It was a fire seed formed from the entire Scarlet Mist Island's fire vein, and its power even surpassed that of a heaven rank spirit fire. Moreover, with the fire vein's support, the sea of fire would be endless. No matter how high one's cultivation was, it would still be able to exhaust them.
The so-called Inferno Burning Heaven Formation originally wanted the trapped person to experience pain and torment until they died. If the person was burned to death right from the start, then it couldn't be called a 'prison'.
Just as the array formation turned into a Hell of Fire, Lu Ping activated his defensive skill and repelled the raging fire waves to a distance of thirty feet away from him. However, the countless sparks of fire licked at Lu Ping's purple-gold protective energy, the Heavenly Water Curtain. It sizzled as if cold water had been poured into a pot of boiling oil. The Heavenly Water Curtain flickered, as if it would extinguish at any moment. It was all thanks to Lu Ping's True Essence that he managed to hold on.
Yan Jiuxiao sneered, "Lu Tianping, the Old Man admits that you have a profound cultivation and great strength. The fact that you were able to hold on until now despite being burned by the Inferno Burning Heaven Formation shows that your true essence is so strong that it is the first time the Old Man has seen in his life. But so what? You're only struggling at death's door. Instead, it will make the Old Man appreciate the painful journey from life to death, haha …"
Because Lu Ping was circulating the true essence in his body with all his strength, his entire body looked like it was covered in a layer of purple-blue mist. Hearing Yan Jiuxiao's mocking words, Lu Ping suddenly raised his head and looked at Yan Jiuxiao, saying seriously, "It's too early for you to be happy!"
"What?"
Yan Jiuxiao's laughter came to an abrupt halt. But then, as if he had heard something funny, he said, "You should think about what last words you have left behind first!"
At this time, because Lu Ping was using all his strength to support the Water Curtain Heaven Flower and delay the corrosion of his protective aura, he had already covered it with the Triple Lights Divine Water. However, it could only prolong his time for a little longer.
But Lu Ping was still unhurried. He spread his hands and formed a hand seal. A white feather lotus diagram abruptly appeared on the surface of his tottering protective aura, stabilizing it once more under the burning of the Inferno Prison. Only then did he speak in a leisurely manner, "Do you really think that I, Lu, will be forced to the point of losing my rationality and be used by you like a marionette to lay down this Inferno Burning Heaven Formation?"
Yan Jiuxiao's heart sank. He said coldly, "Is that not the case!?"
Although Yan Jiuxiao was confident in the Inferno Burning Heaven Formation, Lu Ping's calm expression still gave him goosebumps. Seeing Lu Ping's endless methods, a sinister look flashed across Yan Jiuxiao's face. He said, "Since you want to die early, then the Old Man will fulfill your wish! Fire Phoenix avatar, appear! "
The auspicious cloud behind Yan Jiuxiao suddenly let out a bird cry that resounded through the entire universe. The auspicious cloud transformed, and a blazing scarlet flame stretched out from the void. A majestic Fire Phoenix emerged from the void, flapping its wings and flying along the path opened up by the flame.
This Fire Phoenix was covered in scarlet flames from head to toe, as if it was a spirit of fire. It was Yan Jiuxiao's Pure Yang avatar.
The moment Yan Jiuxiao summoned the avatar, the entire Heaven Burning Inferno Grand Array Formation transformed into a huge furnace, and Lu Ping was the only target to be refined within it.
The moment the avatar appeared, Yan Jiuxiao's confidence soared. But when he looked at Lu Ping again, he discovered that Lu Ping was also looking at him with a strange smile.
The moment the Fire Phoenix avatar appeared, Lu Ping raised his hands, as if he wanted to lift something extremely heavy. He shouted in a low voice, "Now is the time. Genchen Formation, rise!"
Yan Jiuxiao was stunned. He saw nine blue halos suddenly flash from the foot of the volcanoes that served as the foundation of the Inferno Burning Heaven Formation.
The Inferno Burning Heaven Formation had long since been submerged in the sea of fire, and there was nothing else besides the scarlet flames. But these nine blue halos had forcefully carved out a place in the sea of fire. Although the sea of fire was roiling on its own in an attempt to devour these nine translucent halos, only the sound of explosions could be heard coming from the center of the formation. Moreover, the nine halos had not been extinguished even under the encirclement of the sea of fire!
Yan Jiuxiao's expression changed, and he blurted out, "A formation within a formation! Not good, when did you set up this formation!?"
Lu Ping chuckled coldly, "Yan Jiuxiao, you used this Lu to destroy the foundation of the formation formed by the nine volcanoes. How do you know that this Lu isn't also using you to weave a net in secret, to capture you in one fell swoop!?"
As he said this, Lu Ping stretched out a hand and beckoned towards the air. Three translucent halos suddenly flashed from different directions on the protective wall of the formation that was originally formed by fire and scarlet mist. These halos resonated with the halos at the foot of the nine volcanoes, and the twelve halos formed a general outline that perfectly enveloped both Lu Ping and Yan Jiuxiao!
Yan Jiuxiao suddenly recalled the time when Lu Ping was madly chasing after him. Every time Lu Ping used the Pure Yang spirit treasure and the Sword of True Spirit to force him into a corner, Lu Ping would always use a divine ability formed from his natal spirit water to block his path of retreat.
Although the divine ability formed from the natal spirit water wasn't weak, it was clearly far from the power displayed by the two spirit treasures.
Originally, Yan Jiuxiao had thought that Lu Ping's actions were merely a helpless move because his true essence was insufficient after using two spirit treasures in a row. But now, it seemed that Lu Ping's superfluous actions that seemed to have been filled with bloodlust were clearly a hidden killer move. Unfortunately, he had been so carried away by his own success that he had overlooked it. A trace of regret flashed through his heart, but his expression grew even more sinister as he said, "So what? If you want to set up a formation within a formation, you'll have to see if this formation of yours can withstand the Burning Heaven Fire Prison!"
Although Yan Jiuxiao's words were tyrannical, the moment Lu Ping summoned the Twelve Genchen Grand Formation, Yan Jiuxiao had already controlled his avatar in an attempt to break through the Twelve Genchen Grand Formation's barrier and regain control of the Burning Heaven Fire Prison.
However, Lu Ping had schemed for a very long time and had even placed himself in a dangerous situation. It was fine if he didn't make a move, but once he did, he would definitely succeed in killing Yan Jiuxiao. How could he allow Yan Jiuxiao to escape from the Genchen Grand Formation's control!
Just as the pure Yang avatar began to attack the Genchen Grand Formation, the protective divine ability around Lu Ping's body suddenly collapsed. The white lotus diagram that was attached to the Heavenly Water Curtain spread out like flowing water beneath Lu Ping's feet, suppressing the sea of fire beneath his feet in one fell swoop.
At the same time, the twelve Genchen Pearls that had been soaked in the Triple Lights Divine Water flickered with a brilliant five-colored light, temporarily suppressing the sea of fire around them. Every single Genchen Pearl shot out twelve five-colored rays of light that connected the other eleven Genchen Pearls and the white lotus diagram. Then, a five-colored curtain of light began to spread along the five-colored rays of light that connected the diagram to the Genchen Pearls, forming a huge five-colored space within the Burning Heaven Fire Prison, completely isolating it from the Burning Heaven Fire Prison!
The Twelve Genchen Grand Formation, complete!
In the blink of an eye, the instant the Primal Hour Grand Formation was completely formed within the Burning Heaven Hellfire Grand Formation, Yan Jiuxiao, along with the might of his Pure Yang Avatar, smashed into the five-colored barrier of light of the grand formation.
How could the might of a pure Yang avatar be underestimated!
The Genchen Grand Formation shook violently, and Lu Ping's complexion suddenly turned purple. After fighting multiple battles and resisting the attacks of the Burning Heaven Fire Prison, the Genchen Grand Formation that had been painstakingly formed was now under the full force of Yan Jiuxiao's attack. Even someone as strong as Lu Ping was powerless to stop it, and he spat out a mouthful of blood as the Genchen Grand Formation shook violently.
But in the end, the Genchen Grand Formation still managed to withstand the impact of the Fire Phoenix avatar!
The Twelve Genchen Grand Formation was a life-bound formation that Lu Ping had been cultivating ever since he was in the Blood Condensation Realm. How could two hundred years of painstaking effort go to waste!
With Yan Jiuxiao's foresight, he naturally knew that the grand formation in front of him was extraordinary. That was why the attack of the pure Yang avatar just now could be considered his full strength, but it had still failed!
Yan Jiuxiao panicked. Based on his experience, if he couldn't break through this grand formation in the first place, he would have already fallen into Lu Ping's trap. Right now, he could only do his best to resist the attacks of the Genchen Grand Formation that Lu Ping was controlling to buy time, so that the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation could completely destroy this formation within the formation from the outside.
Yan Jiuxiao was confident that the might of the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation that Luan Daoist had passed down to his descendants was definitely above Lu Ping's Genchen Grand Formation. After all, the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation borrowed the power of heaven and earth, while this five-colored space in front of him was laid down by Lu Ping alone. It was still possible for him to last inside the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation for a period of time, but as time passed, he would definitely be refined by the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation!
But the crux of the problem was whether Yan Jiuxiao could last until the Genchen Grand Formation collapsed!
It was a good thing that Lu Ping had endured the power of the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation to lay down this formation within a formation, so much so that he had already suffered internal injuries. However, when he thought of how ferocious Lu Ping had been when he had chased after him with a pure Yang spiritual treasure and the Sword of True Spirit, even the dignified Fire Phoenix Clan Leader felt his heart pound. Right now, the Genchen Grand Formation did not have as much space to dodge as the sky above Scarlet Mist Island!
At this time, Yan Jiuxiao could only brace himself and attack Lu Ping first, hoping that he could seize the initiative. If he could seize the opportunity when Lu Ping was injured and heavily injure him, then this Genchen Grand Formation would naturally collapse on its own.
However, what Yan Jiuxiao did not know was that Lu Ping had not only laid down this Genchen Grand Formation to isolate him from the Burning Heaven Fire Prison Formation. As the strongest technique that Lu Ping had cultivated for more than two hundred years and had never casually revealed, how could he only have this little trick up his sleeves!
Just as Yan Jiuxiao mustered all his remaining courage and charged towards Lu Ping, Lu Ping, who was still bleeding from the corner of his mouth, suddenly smiled. It was a complacent smile!
Yan Jiuxiao's heart skipped a beat. The Fire Phoenix avatar that was charging towards Lu Ping was about to withdraw and defend itself, but since he had already made his move, he could not afford to hesitate any longer. He could only hope that the pure Yang avatar's power could completely break through the limits that Lu Ping could endure!
But in the end, this was only Yan Jiuxiao's wishful thinking!
Lu Ping fiercely clenched his open palm and spat out two words one at a time, "Overturn the Heavens!"
The five-colored space immediately fell into chaos. The pure Yang avatar that was originally charging towards Lu Ping was now getting further and further away from Lu Ping. At the same time, the tyrannical power of space tore at the Fire Phoenix avatar from all directions, and at the same time, it also tore at Yan Jiuxiao's physical body that was possessed by the pure Yang avatar.
Yan Jiuxiao suddenly discovered that within this Genchen Grand Formation, not only was he losing control of his own body, he was also losing the ability to capture Lu Ping's figure!
Just as Yan Jiuxiao was panicking, Lu Ping suddenly appeared beside him, the Swords of True Spirit transforming into six flood dragons that pounced towards his body!
Yan Jiuxiao let out a loud roar and the Fire Phoenix avatar flapped its wings, instantly breaking free from the spatial tearing power of the Genchen Grand Formation. It also calmed the spatial fluctuations within a radius of several tens of feet around its body. But at this time, the six flood dragons had already pounced towards it, clashing with the pure Yang avatar.
However, the Fire Phoenix was still a pure Yang avatar after all, so even though the six flood dragons were formed from the Swords of True Spirit, they were still at a disadvantage.
Yan Jiuxiao swept his eyes across the area and discovered that Lu Ping had once again disappeared without him noticing. Inwardly cursing, he immediately discovered that Lu Ping had already appeared several tens of feet away from him. Purple-gold auspicious clouds rose behind him, and a strange flood dragon that carried an ancient aura suddenly stretched out its golden claws from within the auspicious clouds. Then, its entire body broke through the obstruction of the avatar's auspicious clouds, and a loud roar that shook even Yan Jiuxiao's consciousness rang out. The strange flood dragon avatar had already disappeared into the void, and when it reappeared, it had already joined the battle with the Pure Yang Fire Phoenix, suppressing the life spirit fire attached to the pure Yang avatar in one fell swoop!
Yan Jiuxiao finally revealed a look of shock, but he saw that Lu Ping had already taken out a pure Yang spirit artifact. Yan Jiuxiao wanted to block again, but in order to set up the Inferno Heaven Burning Inferno Formation, the second tribulation spirit artifact, the Fire Spirit Orb, had already fallen into the lava lake as the foundation of the formation.
Two blade lights cut through the air, and Yan Jiuxiao could no longer suppress the despair in his heart. Amidst his howls, he unleashed countless techniques and divine abilities, regardless of their power, but they all exploded into spiritual energy that filled the sky under the power of the scissors. A rain of blood rained down, and inside Genchen Grand Formation, the Fire Phoenix that was fighting with the dragon avatar let out a long, mournful cry.
