"The world is like a chessboard, and all living beings are chess pieces." The dragon man trod on a cloud, facing the destructive weapon. He smilingly looked at Yemo Tian and said, "My two Master Shifu are the true chess players. All living beings in the world are under their control."
"Yemo Tian, you're not bad, and you come from a good family. If you sincerely convert to us …" The dragon man's eyes shone brightly as he stared at the destructive weapon and continued seriously, "If you sincerely offer this treasure to us, you will have a great fortune in the future!"
Just now, the dragon man didn't enter the city, but he clearly learned about the destructive weapon's power through his ears and eyes in the city.
Many power elders and over a hundred deputy elders were beaten up by the destructive weapon. The dragon man thought that even if the four of them combined their powers, it would still be impossible for them to defeat so many powerful non-humankind beings.
This clearly showed how powerful the destructive weapon was. If such a great treasure fell into their hands, it would be way too valuable.
Yemo Tian was so angry that his eye corners even cracked. He roared towards the sky, then took out another soul-returning nine-dragon water and poured it into his mouth through gritted teeth. A dense purple mist coiled around Yemo Tian's entire body. His power had been recovering speedily. Within the span of a few breaths, all internal injuries of Yemo Tian's were healed.
The destructive weapon quaked slightly, then spread the enormous wings on its back. The surrounding space collapsed towards the destructive weapon, while a giant amount of natural powers was devoured by the destructive weapon. Twenty-four pairs of enormous wings with different types and natures had been releasing thunderbolts, raging fires, acidic gusts of wind, poisonous mist …
Black, red, and grey suns rose slowly behind the destructive weapon. Below the three suns were nine moons with constantly changing shapes and colors. From full moons to waning moons, the shapes of the moons changed speedily. A strange power vibration vibrated the space, forcing the four men to step back.
"This kid is risking his life! Brothers, be careful!" The dragon man gave a resonant shout and shouted, "Set up the killing formation of the four beasts! Disciples of the four altars, move now! Kill this kid!"
From the east, south, west, and north, twelve thousand non-humankind warriors trod on clouds and rose into the sky. Holding the green dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, and black tortoise flags in their hands, they set up defensive formations in different directions.
High up in the sky, the four stars shone simultaneously. Thin streams of starlight penetrated the space and landed on the heads of forty-eight thousand non-humankind warriors. Along with a sonorous roar, the silhouettes of four holy beasts, namely the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise, which were condensed from the power of the stars, rose into the sky, shook their heads and wagged their tails, and charged towards the destructive weapon.
Dragon, Tiger, Lion, and Mammoth glanced at each other, then opened their mouths at the same time and each let out a fist-sized, glowing bead.
Ji Hao pressed both of his hands on the purple crystal ball. From the great formation in Liang Zhu City, countless ripples of sensing power spread out in the air. Soon, the four beads were analyzed. These should be the spirit cores of the four ancient holy beasts, and somehow, they ended up in the hands of the four ancient holy beasts.
The four spirit Dans merged with the silhouettes of the four holy beasts in the sky. Along with a sonorous roar, the silhouettes of the four holy beasts grew clearer and clearer. Soon, they looked like real bodies of flesh and blood, and a thriving life-force spread out from their bodies.
Dragon, Tiger, Lion, and Mammoth incanted a spell together and transformed their bodies into beams of light, merging into the bodies of the four holy beasts. In the next moment, the tens of thousands of meters long holy beasts pounced on the destructive weapon along with a sky-devouring roar. They surrounded the destructive weapon entirely.
"Good job!" Ji Hao's fingers flickered swiftly on the purple crystal ball, changing the settings of the great formation at his highest speed.
As Ji Hao changed it, the Liang Zhu City great formation, which was full of magical functions, became lifeless. It lost all other functions, and could only operate according to Ji Hao's current settings.
Ji Hao left countless traps in the great formation. Even if the Xiu Clan masters who designed and built this great formation were here, they wouldn't be able to break Ji Hao's changes and restore the great formation to its original shape in three to five months.
During these three to five months, the great formation could only run as Ji Hao set it.
"What are you doing? What on earth are you doing?" As Ji Hao changed the settings of the great formation over and over again, the magical formation turned stiff and clumsy. Those non-humankind souls, who were 'embedded' in the formation as energy cores, screamed in fear.
As a part of the ultimate defense system of Liang Zhu City, these souls were responsible for maintaining the operation of the great formation. Therefore, they knew every tiny change of the great formation like the back of their hands. The changes Ji Hao made to the great formation suddenly created a thick screen between them and the great formation.
They could no longer sense the great formation of Liang Zhu City. In other words, they were forcibly separated from the great formation by Ji Hao.
"People … You're dead. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Either you reincarnate, or your souls perish. Turning yourselves into souls with a secret magic? This kind of thing is going against the heavens, so it will definitely be punished. "
Ji Hao smilingly shook his head to the countless non-humankind souls in the hemispherical space and said, "I am your retribution!"
The five-colored cauldron buzzed thunderously. Ji Hao opened his mouth and released countless beams of five-colored light. These non-humankind souls screamed and were rolled up by the five-colored light, flying to the cauldron uncontrollably.
Within the span of a couple of breaths, not a single soul remained in the hemispherical space. Ji Hao wielded his broad sleeve and smashed the purple crystal ball, completely destroying this control hub that controlled the entire Liang Zhu City great formation.
The city quaked slightly. From this moment on, the great formation of Liang Zhu City would run according to Ji Hao's settings. No one could ever affect the operation of the great formation again.
"Unless you create another control crystal, but this treasure is not so easy to make!" Ji Hao laughed out loud, then said goodbye to Netherworld Hierarch, who was behind the bronze gate, then flashed across the air and left.
Followed by a thunderous bang, the enormous golden gate behind Ji Hao was shut. According to Ji Hao's settings, this gate could never be opened again, unless it was forcibly dismantled. If anyone truly tried to dismantle this gate, he or she would certainly suffer the craziest attack from the great formation of Liang Zhu City.
"Hehe, Ji Hao, this little thing …" From the bronze gate, Netherworld Priest's deep and hoarse voice could be heard. Dark gusts of wind blew out from the gate. Just now, Netherworld Hierarch tried so hard but failed to drag all the dead spirit puppets into the gate. But now, they were all sucked into the gate by the dark gusts of wind without being able to resist at all.
A quarter of an hour later, Ji Hao arrived at the mansion of the Piji Family.
Feng Xing and Yu Mu had already captured enough Yu Clan nobles, and emptied the treasuries of many families.
Numerous teleporting formations had been operating at full speed, sending captives and treasures out of Liang Zhu City.
Ji Hao joined in as well. Two hours later, the fight between the four men and Yemo Tian was still going on, but Ji Hao and his people had already safely left Liang Zhu City.
