The statue's voice was like thunder, spreading across the sky and it was filled with majesty.
Gong Yangsheng immediately knelt down and walked a few steps on the cloud. He kowtowed and said in a choked voice, "Your disciple has been rude and alarmed the Patriarch. However, our Lie Xuan Sect is in danger and is about to be overturned. Your disciple has no choice but to ask the Patriarch to come out and help us get rid of this great enemy!"
After saying that, he kowtowed many times.
The statue gave out a long nasal sound and said, "Why are you the only one here out of the nine Elders? I don't see the other Elders coming to welcome you."
He pointed at Zhang Yan and said, "It isn't that disciple is disrespectful to Ancestor, but I really can't. Apart from me, the rest … The rest were all killed by this person!"
The statue's sharp gaze swept towards Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan's expression didn't change but he was shocked deep down. He didn't expect Gong Yangsheng to do such a thing.
With his eyesight, he couldn't see through the statue. It was obvious that this thing wasn't simple and it wasn't easy to deal with.
However, he had already gotten the treasure and his goal was achieved. He could leave at any time and if there wasn't a need, he didn't need to fight.
The statue of God stared at Zhang Yan for a moment before speaking to Gong Yangsheng in a deep voice: "You step back and watch me eliminate this great enemy."
Gong Yangsheng relaxed and kowtowed once more before retreating to the side.
His actions were half real and half fake. It was true that he was begging the statue to save him, but it might not be true that he was respectful.
This statue could be said to be Venerable Yi Ya, but it could also be said that it wasn't.
For hundreds of years, who knew how many Lie Xuan Sect disciples worshipped it? After the ritual, the statue had already formed a true consciousness.
However, it only knew that it was Venerable Yi Ya, the Ancestor of Lie Xuan Sect. However, it didn't know that it was a fake created by the disciples.
If it could be refined for hundreds or thousands of years and form a true spirit, then it could merge with the remnant soul that Venerable Yi Ya left in the past to complete the soul. Then, it could barely be considered as borrowing a body to live.
However, even then, it wasn't the original.
Right now … Because of the great enemy in front of him, Gong Yangsheng had no choice but to merge this wisp of his ancestor's remnant soul with his True Sense in advance. Due to the lack of experience, this statue could only be considered a half-broken True Artifact. It had already completely cut off its future path.
However, from the way he saw it, other than himself, the other elders were all dead. If even the Lie Xuan Sect could not protect it, how could they possibly continue refining this treasure? It was better to break the seal as soon as possible and escape with his life. With the help of this treasure, he would at least have something to rely on while he was still alive.
The statue looked at Zhang Yan and shouted, "I don't care which sect you are from. Killing an elder of my sect is a crime that cannot be punished. Hand over your life! "
He clenched his fist, and a flash of lightning appeared in the void. Then, a bolt of lightning exploded. It came from the sky.
Zhang Yan took a step back and swiftly executed the Minor Universe Shifting Escape Art. His figure only swayed from his original spot for a moment before he was already a thousand feet away.
At this moment, he turned his head and saw that the lightning fell from the sky and struck Lu Qi Mountain. He only heard a shocking sound. The mountain rocks cracked and grass and trees flew. Even the top of the mountain was blown away.
He was slightly shocked. He didn't think that the attack of this statue would be so powerful.
Although this Ancestor Yi Ya statue only used the lightning to fight the enemy, he was using the body of the treasure to attack. It could be said that his mana was monstrous. The power that he displayed was more than ten times stronger than the few elders of the Lie Xuan Sect!
The statue saw that in the blink of an eye, Zhang Yan had escaped into the distance. He laughed coldly and said, "Shifting Art? You dare to show off in front of me! "
His giant body shook slightly and suddenly, a golden bridge appeared beneath his feet. He took a step forward and his giant body flashed and blocked in front of Zhang Yan.
Then, he pointed downwards and there was a strong gust of wind that swept over. Within a radius of ten miles, the wind and clouds changed color and everything was shrouded in a storm.
Zhang Yan's eyes turned cold. He naturally wouldn't wait for death. He raised his hand and a few bolts of purple lightning shot out. However, when they hit the statue, there was only a rumble and no damage was done. It was as if the statue didn't feel anything.
The statue laughed coldly and stood on the spot. His body actually shrunk continuously and turned into the size of a normal person.
He straightened his palm and began to chant an incantation. His voice was loud and filled the sky with the sound of chanting.
In the blink of an eye, circles of dazzling brilliance shot out like silver stars and surged like torches. They ceaselessly spread out from his body and illuminated his face. In the end, a brilliance that was like the rising sun suddenly soared up from his back, and it covered the heavens and the earth as it enveloped down and completely enveloped this area of the world.
He flicked his sleeves coldly and said, "Junior, I have now locked this area. Let's see where you can escape to!"
Gong Yangsheng who was watching at the side had a strange light in his eyes. He secretly rejoiced and said, "I originally thought that if the seal was released in advance, this treasure would be somewhat useful but it wouldn't be that powerful. I didn't expect that it would have such power even before it was refined. With its help, why would we be afraid of Qingshi Temple and Jinling Sect? In a few hundred years, we can make a comeback again! "
The statue raised his hand and bolts of strong lightning fell again. However, this time it wasn't a test like before. Instead, dozens of bolts of lightning blasted from all directions, leaving no room for Zhang Yan to dodge at all.
Since he couldn't dodge, he might as well not dodge!
Zhang Yan shouted loudly as he summoned the World Leaf over, causing it to float above his head, and then he circulated his magic energy to the limit. This leaf seemed to know that this was a critical moment as well, and it emitted a clear cry that was like the sound of a zither that spread out into the distance. A brilliant brilliance that was dazzling like a brocade cloud and soft like a rosy cloud bloomed from its body, and it protected him within it.
The strong lightning fell like dense rain hitting the long water, causing ripples to appear continuously. This shell leaf was like a small boat crossing the sea. It seemed to be swaying in the storm and seemed to be about to capsize at any time. However, it was very tough and it was difficult to break through.
This statue relied on its huge mana and could trigger such a great momentum at any time. However, it was after all not mature enough and it was incomplete. In essence, it was only similar to a cultivator of the third level of Yuanying. If it wanted to rely on its own strength to break this Earth Splitting Heaven and Earth Leaf, it would be difficult to do so in a short period of time.
Seeing that no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't take down Zhang Yan, the statue seemed to be annoyed. It snorted and said, "Junior, do you think that this is all I have? Take a good look. "
He stretched out his hand and a green aura appeared out of thin air. He pinched it a few times and with a flick of his finger, a flag that was condensed from smoke flew out. He then turned his head and pointed at Zhang Yan and said, "Keep!"
In an instant, Zhang Yan only felt that his body was being pulled by a huge force and was slowly being dragged up. Even the Heaven and Earth Leaf could not stop it.
He raised his head and looked up. Judging from the momentum, it seemed that in less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he would be pulled onto the flag.
Although he didn't know what the secret was, he knew that it would not go as he wished.
He thought for a while and took out an item from his sleeve. He looked at it and thought, "I originally didn't want to use this item to avoid leaving any traces. But now it seems that this is the only thing that can solve the problem once and for all. Zhenren Cheng predicted the enemy first, this is a good move."
The item in his hand was a Black Wood Talisman. It was given to him by Zhenren Cheng before he left. This wasn't a rare magical treasure, it was the talisman of the restriction within 800 miles of the Double Moon Peak.
With this talisman, one could activate the Zhen Luo Alliance's Protective Formation and kill the enemy. Even if the people from the Heaven's Abode came, they would be able to resist for a while.
Because of this, the range of the formation was very wide. Usually, three Zhenren Yuanying would need to work together to activate it. That was why there were three elders of the Zhen Luo Alliance guarding the Double Moon Peak all year round.
Before the Lie Xuan Sect attacked, they were also afraid of this formation. They thought of ways to get Elder Che away and ordered Shang Teng to take down Huang Zuoguang.
If it wasn't for this, no matter how brave they were, they wouldn't have dared to come here.
What they didn't expect was that although Zhenren Cheng couldn't protect the Zhen Luo Alliance due to the battle, he gave the talisman to Zhang Yan before he left, leaving a hidden chess piece.
When the nine people from the Lie Xuan Sect attacked, if Zhang Yan used this talisman, he could easily kill them.
However, this kind of formation was the foundation of a sect. If he used it as an outsider, it would be a taboo. Secondly, with his own strength, he wouldn't be able to activate the formation. He needed the help of the Earth Fire Heavenly Furnace.
But at that time, his Heaven and Earth Leaf was still being refined in the furnace. Once he used this talisman, he wouldn't be able to refine the treasure. This was why Zhenren Cheng said that it might be useful when the treasure is completed.
The situation was dire. This statue was made of precious materials and didn't fear any weapons. Even if the Shao Qing Sect's Extreme Sword Technique was said to be able to cut through anything, if it wasn't trained to a certain level, it might not be able to cut through this item.
With Zhang Yan's current abilities, if he wanted to break out of this predicament, he could only use the North Dark Sword. However, that wasn't worth it. Thus, activating the formation was the most suitable choice. As for how to negotiate with the Zhen Luo Alliance, that was a matter for the future. There was no need to think about it now.
He held onto the talisman and poured all the magic power in his body into it. The talisman suddenly vibrated, and in an instant, countless chants and secret techniques were transmitted into his mind.
This was a method to control the restrictive formation. If it was someone who didn't know anything about formations, even if he learned this method, he would only be able to slowly test it out. If he came, he would be able to scare away the statue, but if he wanted to capture it, he wouldn't be able to.
Fortunately, when Zhang Yan was on the continent of Kunyu, he had roughly studied the formation in order to absorb Gang Ying. He knew how to operate it. Now that he had the chants in hand, he didn't dare to say that he could completely control the formation, but it was enough to trap this enemy.
He held the talisman and was about to make his move when he suddenly stopped. He thought of something and looked down. He thought to himself, "There are still three Daoists in the pit. Just Now, they haven't escaped. They must have seen the Elders of Lie Xuan Sect and didn't dare to come out. If I use the pit to activate the formation, I'm afraid their lives will be in danger. Daoist Hua, let's not talk about him. Liang and Wei have worked hard for me, I can't harm their lives."
His mind moved and he immediately had an idea. His mind moved and the Qian Kun Leaf on top of his head suddenly swayed, as if it was reluctant to part, it spun a few times above his head and fell into the pit of earth fire to protect the three people.
He took out a spell and the treasure light on his body released a few feet of light to protect himself. He then took out the Fixing Talisman and activated the formation with his spiritual power!
