"Sigh …" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive sighed and said, "Let's take the Immortal Elixir to heal ourselves. We'll talk about it after we've recovered."
"Master …" Li Yi said, "Senior Brother Qiao and the others have already taken the Immortal Elixir. However, there are too many injured disciples this time, and we don't have enough Immortal Elixirs!"
"Well, that's easy!" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive thought of Xiao Guo and whispered to her. Then, he raised his hand and took out a few Chenwei pills. He handed them to Li Yi and said, "For the time being, we don't need to gather the disciples to set up the Supreme Escape Mystic Immortal Formation. Find the disciples to distribute these Immortal Elixirs. I'll wait for you in the Jade Emperor Heaven's Beyond."
Seeing Li Yi and the disciples distribute the Immortal Elixirs, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive and his clones went to the Creation Taoist Palace in the Jade Emperor Heaven's Beyond. After sitting down, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive looked at his clones and said with a bitter smile, "30% of the disciples have died. Everyone, that's 40 million lives! I feel that … my heart is heavy! "
"Namo Maitreya Buddha …" The Buddha in the jade archive recited the name of Buddha without saying much. Even he had fallen once, which showed how dangerous the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was.
"Since 40 million disciples have died, it's useless to think too much!" Jade Archive said thunderously, "Let's think about what we should do next. Outside the space, the 28 Mansions Formation has been set up. If we don't react well, more disciples will die!"
"First of all …" Feng Wu of the Jade Archive said, "My fellow cultivator, you can't use the Sword Atlas and the Sword Box again! According to I's investigation, after the Sword Atlas and the Sword Box were used, more powerful Senjō Evil Souls flew out from the 28 Mansions Formation! "
"That's right!" Jade Archive Huang Tong nodded and said, "Previously, we were wondering why the Mansions Formation didn't take the initiative to attack. I'm afraid it has something to do with the Sword Atlas and the Sword Box!"
"Well, I'll remember this!" Xiao Hua had a lingering fear in his heart as well, and he nodded and said, "Not only the sword diagram and sword chest, I won't utilize anything related to these two Immortal Artifacts!"
"Also …" Huang Tong from the Jade Archive asked again, "Does anyone know how the Innumerable Immortal Array stopped?"
"Yes, yes!" The Jade Archive's Feng Wu said anxiously, "I was forced to use the Dam Mountain Breathing Technique to escape. Who would have thought that all the fierce souls would disappear in an instant? It's really strange!"
Xiao Hua looked at the Jade Archive's thunder and asked, "What were you doing at that time?"
"Nothing?" Lei Ting of the Jade Archive said curiously, "I was forced to flee. Suddenly, a humanoid figure that looked like an earthworm flew out and pierced through I's left arm with a sword. I was so angry that I released the Spirit-killing Vital Light. When that humanoid figure's head fell to the ground, it was quiet all around. Could it be …"
"Yes!" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive looked around and asked, "Fellow Daoists, if you haven't found anything special, then the fierce soul that Fellow Daoist Thunder killed was the key to stopping the array …"
"Can we assume that …" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive paused for a moment. After seeing that the clones of the Jade Archive didn't object, he continued, "Is there an Immortal who has the sword chest in I's hand? When he gives the order to attack, the Constellation Array will take the initiative to attack. Otherwise, it can only wait for people to break in. When he gives the order, the fierce souls of the Senjō who are more powerful than the generals who set up the array will appear? After Fellow Daoist Thunder killed the earthworm-like general, it was also this Immortal who gave the order to continue the battle. Otherwise, the Constellation Array and the fierce souls of the Senjō wouldn't have appeared if we didn't get close to the Eight Trigrams Platform and the pagoda. "
"Clap, clap …" Lei Lei from the Jade Archive clapped his hands and said, "I agree with what Fellow Daoist said. That should be the case!"
While they were talking, some disciples had already landed in front of the Fortune Daoist Palace. Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive and the others stopped discussing and stared at the disciples who had gathered.
After the meal, Qiao Lunhui, Qin Xin, and the others kowtowed. Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive glanced over and knew that there were only a few second-generation disciples and some third-generation disciples who had died. His seven disciples and the five generals whom he was familiar with were still alive. Only then did he feel relieved.
Unfortunately, Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive had a limited number of Death Substitute Talismans and couldn't give them to all the disciples. However, he gave the remaining Death Substitute Talismans to Zhou Xiaoming and instructed him to secretly give them to Qiao Lunhui and the others.
"Old Master …" Qiao Lunhui reported first, "The casualties of this battle have been determined. There are more than 24,870,000 disciples who have died, more than 50,000,000 who are seriously injured, and countless who have minor injuries …"
After Qiao Lunhui finished, Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive said, "The fallen disciples should also be commemorated. Discuss it and report it to me after this battle."
"Yes, we understand!" Qiao Lunhui and the others bowed and agreed.
"We have just discussed this great array and have some guesses …" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive told them what they were thinking. Finally, he asked, "What do you think?"
"Although we are frogs at the bottom of the well and only care about escaping during the battle, we can see from Old Master's analysis that Old Master's conjectures are correct!" Zhou Xiaoming looked at the silent Qiao Lunhui and the others and bowed. "If that's the case, Old Master can control the rhythm of the attack. There's no need to attract more powerful immortal soldiers! Moreover … I feel that the Supreme Elusive Mystic Celestial Formation might not be suitable for this battle … "
"En …" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive looked at Zhou Xiaoming and nodded. "This old man also thinks so. The Supreme Elusive Mystic Celestial Formation's attack is absolutely sharp, but its defense is insufficient. The enemy generals in the Nine Constellations Grand Formation are too strong. We Fortune Gate's disciples must first defend before attacking. Only then can we have a chance of winning this battle!"
Qin Xin suggested, "Old Master said that the Ten Thousand Realms of Starry Sky Origin Grand Formation is very good. I think we should give it a try …"
There were currently two and a half large-scale immortal formations in the Fortune Gate. One was the Supreme Elusive Mystic Celestial Formation, the other was the Ten Thousand Realms of Starry Sky Origin Grand Formation, and the other was the Four Seasons Sword Formation. The Four Seasons Sword Formation was only practiced by tens of millions of Fortune Gate's disciples, and the requirement was extremely high. At this critical moment, the Jade Archive Xiao Hua couldn't let the Fortune Gate's disciples use the Four Seasons Sword Formation to resist the twenty-eight Constellations Grand Formation. Therefore, the only choice now was the Ten Thousand Realms of Starry Sky Origin Grand Formation!
"En …" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive had the same intention when he ordered the disciples to stop practicing the Supreme Elusive Mystic Celestial Formation. Therefore, he nodded and said, "Pass down the order, let the disciples start practicing the Ten Thousand Realms of Starry Sky Origin Grand Formation. When they are familiar with it, we will fight the twenty-eight Constellations!"
A disciple flew down from the Nine Heavens to pass down the order. Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive looked at the disciples and scratched his head. He said, "Now that we have changed the offensive formation and ordered all the disciples to start practicing the Soul Casting Technique, but … after all, time is of the essence …"
"Namo Maitreya Buddha …" The Jade Archive Buddha put his palms together and said, "Have you forgotten about the five-colored people outside Tongguan City?"
Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive looked at the Jade Archive Buddha and frowned. "I naturally remember about the five-colored people, but the heterogeneous starlight here is completely different from the five-colored people. Moreover, I have also seen the Holy Light World's space, and the souls of the angels there are also affected!"
"You are taking it for granted!" The Jade Archive Buddha laughed and said, "The Holy Light World's holy light may be useless to itself, but it doesn't mean that it is useless to the human race!"
"That makes sense …" Xiao Hua from the Jade Archive suddenly understood and nodded. "Since that is the case, I will give it a try!"
Jade Archive Xiao Hua would never have thought that after sending the Holy Light World's Pure Water to the Immortal World, the Fortune Gate's disciples' souls would actually be alleviated to a certain extent.
Although it was somewhat alleviated and was far from being able to eliminate the problem, there was still a direction. Jade Archive Xiao Hua was overjoyed and used his divine ability to scatter the Holy Light World's Pure Water and holy light to the Immortal World, Buddhist Kingdom, and Demon League's Space from time to time.
"Phew …" After doing all this, Jade Archive Xiao Hua let out a long sigh and sat on the Throne of Fortune. He said, "Finally, I've done something useful …"
"Master …" Zhou Xiaoming and Jiang Meihua, who were standing at the side, looked at each other. Jiang Meihua smiled and said, "Do you feel extremely sad about the death of nearly thirty million disciples?"
Jade Archive Xiao Hua closed his eyes and asked indifferently, "What are you waiting for? Don't you feel sad? "
"The Martial Nephews and even the juniors who were cultivating together with us on the Lantern Festival were suddenly gone. Master, do you think this disciple feels sad?" Jiang Meihua still put on a smile and replied, "But this disciple feels sad. This disciple can recall the past, but Master can't. Master can't feel sad and can't feel guilty."
Jade Archive Xiao Hua's face sank. He took another long breath and said, "This old man knows what you want to say. Say it …"
Zhou Xiaoming smiled and gave Jiang Meihua a thumbs up. He and Jiang Meihua both knew that their master was kind and indecisive at times. Therefore, when he encountered a situation where tens of millions of disciples had died, he would definitely feel sad. What they had to do was to eliminate the worries of their master.
"Master …" Jiang Meihua had already prepared himself. At this time, he opened his mouth and said, "You are the commander of an army. What you have to look at is the overall situation. Losing a battle and losing disciples is nothing. What you have to do is to protect all the disciples of our Fortune Gate and save billions of lives from this disaster …"
Jiang Meihua talked endlessly. Xiao Hua listened helplessly, but gradually, his heart relaxed. After all, after he had practiced the art of chess, why did the Black and White Chess Saint insist that Xiao Hua enter the Supreme Ancient Immortal World fragment to train? Wasn't it to let him understand that it was easy to abandon a chess piece on the chessboard, but it was difficult to abandon a battle team on the battlefield? Only when one was not afraid of sacrifice and knew how to make a choice could one truly understand the game of chess on the battlefield. Only then could one truly win.
It was a pity that the Black and White Chess Saint would never know that he originally wanted Xiao Hua to enter the dreamland to train, but because of a freak combination of factors, Xiao Hua actually entered with his true body. Moreover, what Xiao Hua had to sacrifice … were the lives of the Fortune Gate's disciples. This test was even more difficult for the merciful Xiao Hua to make a choice. Losing thirty million disciples in one go … made Xiao Hua feel extremely guilty.
"Namo Maitreya Buddha …" Jade Archive Buddha also said in his heart, "Benefactor Jiang is right. The lives of thirty million Fortune Gate's disciples are lives. The lives of the Immortal World space, the Buddhist Kingdom space, the Dragon Domain space, and other living beings are also lives. It may not be right to exchange less for more, but if you can get more out of an uncontrollable loss, it may not be wrong."
