The Ninety-Nine Origin Return Great Formation was a secret of the Dragon God Celestial Palace. When the Dragon King had given the golden dragon ball to Ye Chen, he had also imparted it to him. Fortunately, it had been imparted early. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Ye Chen to comprehend the formation in such a short time. After all, formations were different from martial arts. One had to have a certain foundation. Without a solid foundation, one would be helpless no matter how talented one was.
"Rise!"
On the central peak, Ye Chen spread his hands and let out a low roar.
Following the roar, the veins under the twenty-seven mountains began to tremble. In the next instant, eighty-one beams of Spiritual Qi were fired into the sky and into the clouds.
The spirit qi light pillar was hundreds of meters thick, and contained a vast amount of yuan qi from the spirit stones. Without exaggeration, if one of the spirit qi light pillars were to attack a city, it would definitely be flattened, and there would be no chance of survival at all. Because right then, Ye Chen had already activated all of the spirit qi in the spirit vein.
The spirit qi light column contained a shocking amount of spirit qi, and Ye Chen would naturally not let it go. He waved both of his hands in the air, and those eighty-one spirit qi light columns shot up into the sky like huge dragons, drawing beautiful arcs in the air as they attacked toward Ye Chen who was on the ground.
Just as the spirit qi light pillars were about to hit Ye Chen, Ye Chen did not panic. He put his hands together and, with an unimaginable speed, he formed nine seals in one breath.
After the seals were completed, the spirit qi light pillars became gentle and danced around Ye Chen. If one were to look from far away, they would be able to see eighty-one hundred-meter-thick rainbows circling around Ye Chen, forming a huge light sphere. The color of the sphere was mottled, leaning toward a milky yellow color.
"Next is the most important step."
No matter what kind of array formation was set up, one had to carve out the veins of the array formation. As for the target of carving, it depended on the environment. It could be in the water, on the ground, or even in the void. Although the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array could be carved in the void, it was best to carve it on the ground.
The Nine Nine Return to Origin Great Array had already been simulated thousands of times in Ye Chen's mind. Fortunately, Ye Chen's soul was ten times stronger than ordinary Life and Death Kings. Otherwise, simulating such a complicated array in his mind would be extremely taxing. If it were other Life and Death Kings, they would have to comprehend the array step by step, and wouldn't be able to simulate it in their mind without any scruples.
"Bind!"
Exhaling, Ye Chen waved his right hand. One of the pillars of spiritual energy suddenly left the ball of light and spread rapidly along the surface of the ground, like a needle being threaded.
Soon after, the second, third, fourth … a total of eight pillars of spiritual energy spread out with Ye Chen as the center. Wherever they passed, they left glowing marks on the ground. These marks flickered, and didn't cause any damage to the surroundings. However, they caused the Yuan Qi of the heaven and earth to become chaotic.
These nine glowing marks formed a circle with Ye Chen as the center. The nine mountains around Ye Chen's feet were naturally enveloped by this circle. Some of the plants on the mountains were nourished by the dense spiritual energy and were growing crazily. Some of them even broke away from the limits of ordinary plants and turned into spirit grasses or spirit trees. For a moment, specks of spiritual light flickered, and a rain of flowers fluttered in the air. The scene looked like a paradise on earth.
This was not the end. The marks left behind by the nine pillars of spiritual energy were merely the framework of the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array. With this framework as the foundation, many more complicated marks would need to be carved. These marks would connect with each other and influence each other, forming an endless cycle. Only then would the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array be completed.
One day passed, and the circle was filled with many marks.
Three days passed, and the circle was filled with a trace of profoundness.
Nine days passed, and the circle was completely formed by nature, filled with innate profoundness.
From high up in the sky, this circle that was filled with brand lines was incomparably huge. It completely encircled the nine mountain peaks. The brand lines inside were either straight lines or curved lines. They formed symbols or entangled with each other. Within the circle, they formed countless small circles, and within the small circles, there was no end to them.
The spiritual Qi within the spirit vein, with the marks as the hub, emitted astonishing spiritual Qi fluctuations. Normally, the fluctuations would be diluted and fuse with the heaven and earth. However, with the restriction of the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array, the moment the spiritual Qi reached the sky, it was immediately blocked by an incorporeal barrier, unable to be released.
The range of the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array was the shape of a sphere. From the sky to the ground, there were no blind spots. Even the void was affected by an incorporeal barrier. Ordinary Life and Death Kings couldn't even dream of breaking through space and entering the great array. Even a powerful titled monarch would be obstructed for a while.
At this point, the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array was completed.
Once the formation was complete, the visible lines of the imprints immediately turned invisible. Looking at it with the naked eye, one would not be able to see the slightest trace of it. One could only see the thin mist-like spiritual energy floating in the air, forming spiritual clouds.
Grabbing at the air, Ye Chen said inwardly, "Sure enough, it can't compare to Dragon God Celestial Palace's Nine-by-Nine Grand Array. The density of the heaven and earth Yuan Qi here is roughly seven times that of the outside world."
Nine-by-Nine Grand Array's extreme effect was nine times the density of the outside world's Yuan Qi. One day of cultivation was equivalent to nine days of bitter cultivation in the outside world. On the other hand, Ye Family's Nine-by-Nine Grand Array allowed one day of cultivation to be equivalent to seven days of bitter cultivation. The difference wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. After all, the lifespan of martial artists was extremely long. One or two days might not make a difference, but ten or twenty years would be a huge difference.
"One Nine-by-Nine Grand Array is not enough. I have to arrange other arrays."
The Mountain Guarding Great Array had both offense and defense. If one were to blindly defend, they would eventually fall into a disadvantage. Moreover, the Nine-by-Nine Grand Array's main function was to seal the heaven and earth Yuan Qi and absorb it from the outside world. In terms of defense, it was only an additional effect. Fortunately, Ye Chen knew quite a few arrays. With the array manuals left by Fire Emperor and some sword array arrangements in Battle King's memories, he didn't have to worry about not having enough arrays to use.
Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array!
This was one of the defensive arrays in the Fire Emperor's array manuals, and its grade was supreme grade.
Once the array was completed, it would condense numerous illusory mountains and rivers to protect the Ye Family when attacked from the outside world. When the enemy fell into the great array, their speed would be greatly reduced. It would be like entering a world of flood and collapsing mountains. Being able to exert seventy to eighty percent of one's strength would already be considered pretty good.
The Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array completely covered the twenty-seven mountains, but its defensive range was far beyond that. When attacked, it would expand by ten times, and the enemy would be sucked into it.
The Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array was a defensive array. Next, Ye Chen arranged another offensive array. This array also came from Fire Emperor, and it was called the Sky Burning Fire Dragon Array. It was also a supreme grade.
The attacking range of the Sky Burning Fire Dragon Array was far beyond the defensive range of the Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array. Once it was activated, it would condense fire dragons that could burn the sky. They would jump out of the great array and attack the enemy. Even if the enemy was a thousand miles away, they would not be able to escape the pursuit of the fire dragons. In addition, the Sky Burning Fire Dragon Array was controllable. The people inside the array could control the fire dragons and attack at will. Under normal circumstances, one person could control one fire dragon. Unless it was a genius like Ye Chen who could multitask, or even multitask, he could control two or three fire dragons to attack the enemy at the same time.
After setting up the Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array and the Sky Burning Fire Dragon Array, Ye Chen focused on the last offensive great array.
This offensive great array came from the Battle Emperor's memory. It was called the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array. Back in the days, the Immortal Sword Martial School in the Blood Heaven Land also had the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array. Unfortunately, the Battle Emperor had fallen and the Immortal Sword Sect had been taken over by the demonic martial school. Otherwise, with just the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array, the surrounding rank six martial schools would not dare to bully the Zhang Tian Martial School.
Ye Chen did not set up the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array outside. Instead, he set it up at the edge of the nine mountains, which was very close to the Nine Nine Return to Origin Great Array. This way, with the natural power of the Nine Nine Return to Origin Great Array, the power of the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array would definitely be maximized.
Chi Chi Chi Chi!
The power of the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array was extremely powerful. Although it was still an extreme rank mid-rank array, it was one of the most horrifying attacking arrays. During the process of setting up the array, the natural spirit qi would constantly compress and condense into beams of white sword qi, shooting out in all directions. If it were not for the fact that Ye Chen had been paying close attention, the surrounding eighteen mountains would have been sliced into pieces by these white sword qi.
Of course, this was because the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array hadn't been completely set up yet. After being set up, it wouldn't be activated easily. It would only be activated when being attacked. Moreover, it would lock onto the life aura of the attacker, and wouldn't stop until the attacker was dead. Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn't have arranged it here.
After spending ten days, the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array was also completed.
Currently, with the Nine Nine Return to Origin Great Array and the Immortal Sword Qi Great Array on the inside, and the Fire Dragon Sky Burning Great Array and the Water and Earth Chain Great Array on the outside, Ye family had a total of four great arrays protecting it. Although it might not be as safe as Dragon God Celestial Palace, it would at least be able to hold out for a period of time.
However, Ye Chen knew that no matter how powerful the great arrays were, they were only external objects. Without the protection of Life and Death Kings, no matter how many great arrays there were, they would still be broken. Dragon God Celestial Palace's arrays were extremely powerful, but without Senior Dragon King, they were still invaded by the four great powers. If one thought that they would be safe with the protection of the great arrays, then they would be gravely mistaken.
"Let's set up another mountain gate and arrange a flight restriction array!"
The mountain gate was the entrance of a power, so it could not be careless.
Using white jade, Ye Chen created a huge mountain gate. The mountain gate was twelve zhang tall and fifteen zhang wide, looking like a memorial arch. On the mountain gate, Ye Chen used the Immortal Sword Intent to carve two large characters — Ye Family. He then arranged some firm restrictions on the mountain gate to prevent it from being damaged or easily destroyed.
At the same time, with the mountain gate as the center, Ye Chen arranged a flight restriction array within a thousand meters. Anyone under Life and Death realm would not be able to fly inside the array. They could only walk on the ground. Even Life and Death Kings would face some restrictions and be unable to fly high enough to fly over the mountain gate.
