Meng Shen and Su'Er noticed the commotion outside and knew that the Kui Constellation's army had already begun their attack.
They also knew that success or failure depended on this move, so they stopped talking and sat on the high platform with a serious expression.
Not long after, the surrounding walls of the platform suddenly glowed, and a gurgling sound could be heard from below. It was as if there was water flowing, but it was flowing in the opposite direction.
The two of them were overjoyed. They knew that the Qi of Primordial Essence that they had harvested had arrived. They immediately focused and prepared to absorb it.
A moment later, streams of Qi of Primordial Essence surged from below and rushed into their bodies. Their own Fa Li also began to circulate involuntarily under the influence of this power.
If their original Fa Li was like a self-enclosed pond full of filth and stagnant, then this Qi of Primordial Essence was like a clear spring that flowed in from the outside, forming a pool of flowing water.
During this process, the heavy sediment was brought out, and more clear water with vitality flowed in. For a moment, they felt as if they had been reborn.
The two of them felt as if they were tired people bathing in warm water for a long time. They just wanted to immerse themselves in it and didn't want to wake up.
However, they also knew that this process wasn't interrupted enough. Once it stopped, it would be like the source of water being cut off. They would immediately return to their original state, and their Fa Li would be like a pool of stagnant water.
Therefore, they also took the opportunity to adjust their Qi and circulated the chants that their teacher taught them. They used this to dissolve the heavy medicine that they had swallowed beforehand.
However, after a while, they felt a little dissatisfied. This was because the amount of Qi of Primordial Essence was too little. It was only divided between the two of them, and most of it was absorbed by the power from above.
The two of them looked at each other. Although they already knew that this would be the result, they still felt unhappy when faced with it.
They had a certain judgment of the situation. The Earth Star that they were on was within the Kui Constellation. The Kui Constellation's Military Affairs Department could continuously mobilize people to attack them. This place looked sturdy, but as the destruction gradually increased, it would be broken through sooner or later.
They had to achieve something before then, or else there would be no hope. However, they were naturally unwilling to watch others succeed while they could only accompany them from the side.
Su 'Er transmitted her voice, "Senior Brother, we can't fight among ourselves. If we can steal a portion of Eldest Senior Brother's essence, it'll be enough for the two of us."
Meng Shen said, "I'm afraid the two of us aren't Eldest Senior Brother's match."
Su'Er said, "What's there to be afraid of? Even if we fight, he won't be able to take us down in a short time. That way, he won't be able to cultivate. Moreover, Teacher had already said that the three of us would rely on our own abilities and means. Could it be that he would be allowed to enjoy the feast alone and leave the leftovers for us? I refuse to accept this! "
Meng Shen didn't want to give up. He gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, let's give it a try."
The Primordial Essence Qi flowed from the bottom to the top, so it had to pass through them first before being sent to the top. Therefore, it was not difficult for them to intercept it.
At first, they were very careful, afraid that Eldest Senior Brother would fall out with them. However, after a while, they realized that the top didn't have any intense reaction to their actions, so they gradually became bolder.
However, at the same time, they were also nervous. They were afraid that Eldest Senior Brother had some tricks up his sleeve to deal with them. However, the path to the top was right in front of them. How could they give up? Therefore, they could only bite the bullet and continue.
At this moment, Zhang Yu had only flown a short distance away from the surface of Earth Star when he saw a tall jade pillar towering into the clouds in the sea. There were faint flashes of lightning around it.
He saw this thing when he passed through the clouds. It was obviously used to attract the formation. If these things could be destroyed, the clouds blocking the army above would be weakened as a result.
He was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he circled around the jade pillar, then wielded his sword to strike. As the sword light collided with the jade pillar, it immediately shook violently, as if it had triggered something. The rumbling of thunder resounded in the sky.
He raised his eyes to look at the horizon and saw a ball of dark clouds swirling around the jade pillar. Then, a bolt of lightning struck down at him!
However, before the lightning could land on his body, a sword light suddenly flashed and intercepted it halfway. At that instant, the entire body of the sword emitted a boundless and dazzling light, as if it had fused with the lightning.
The commotion caused by that strike was not limited to this. After the lightning rolled, a strong wind blew over, followed by a torrential rain. Every raindrop was extremely heavy, as if a heavy hammer had struck. When they smashed into the metal-like ground, deep holes were formed. Scattered pieces of solid debris jumped everywhere along with the splashing water droplets, crackling and exploding.
The light outside Zhang Yu's body flickered and jumped non-stop, blocking all the corruption outside. Although this kind of attack looked very powerful, the power was not concentrated, and the mysterious power contained within was not strong, so it did not pose a threat to him.
However, he thought for a moment. Every array pillar was connected to the formation and looked incomparably sturdy. If he destroyed them one by one, not to mention wasting too much time, he would also encounter many obstacles.
It was not worth it for him to stay here. It was better to leave this to the soldiers who would come later and search for the core of the formation himself.
As long as he killed the person who wanted to achieve Xuan Zun, the things outside were just decorations.
After making up his mind, he no longer cared about these things and continued to follow the path that the Cicada Cry Sword had opened up.
At this moment, Liang Yi and the others had also arrived in front of a jade pillar. When they were also probing, they heard a rumbling sound coming from the sky.
When the cultivators who had released their senses to investigate heard this, it was as if their heads had been heavily smashed by a hammer. Their consciousness immediately went blank, and their bodies swayed. Some of them even had traces of blood flowing out from their seven orifices.
When Liang Yi saw this, he immediately spread out his Heart Ray and protected these fellow Daoists inside. He shouted, "Quickly seal off your senses!"
These cultivators immediately cut off their senses and sat down. They took out pills and swallowed them. After a while, they gradually recovered.
Liang Yi asked, "How are you?"
One of the cultivators said, "Thank you, Liang Daoyou, for protecting us. We were just a little shaken. It's nothing serious."
He also had a lingering fear in his heart. Just now, the thunder was shaking in the distance. If it was closer, the result would be unpredictable.
This was not because they were weak, but because their ability was biased towards sensing. When they focused and tried their best to distinguish, suddenly there was an explosion in their ears. No one could withstand it.
Yu Ruiqing said, "Liang Daoyou, there are dangers everywhere here. Many of them are targeted at our senses. It seems that it's better to use the visualization map to explore."
Liang Yi said, "That's the only way."
Using the visualization map to explore, it was difficult to guarantee that there were many places that were not missed. But for now, this was the safest way.
And while they were discussing, the more than two hundred armored soldiers had been silent. Although they had been following them, they had never casually expressed their opinions. Their walking, sitting, and lying were clean and nimble, showing extremely good discipline.
These soldiers had never needed them to take care of them. Until now, no one had been injured. They were worthy of being the elites of the main army of Yi Wei Tian City.
Many cultivators looked at them with eyes full of approval. In this place full of danger, having such teammates made people feel at ease and reliable.
At this time, a Xuanxiu who had released the visualization map said, "Everyone, the situation in front is not right."
He stretched out his hand and a cloud of smoke appeared in front of everyone. The scene that he saw appeared inside.
Everyone looked over and saw a huge natural hole in the ground. Many half-insect, half-rat creatures covered in crystalline scales crawled out from the hole like a flood. Judging from the direction they were heading in, they were heading towards them!
After Zhang Yu flew for a while, he crossed the sea and a piece of land appeared in front of him.
In addition to the formation pillars that could be seen at intervals, there were oval flat bulges all over the place. The surface of these things looked extremely smooth, and they were evenly scattered on the ground.
It was as if the movement of his flight had alarmed something. Those bumps exploded one by one, and a cloud of yellow sand flew out from within. However, one could immediately see that it was actually made up of many tiny insects. They were densely packed together and uncountable.
Not only that, these things seemed to have an inexplicable connection with each other. As he continued to fly past, these things continued to appear from all directions.
He did not have the mind to fight against these things. With a shift of his consciousness, the flying sword flashed in the air and slashed on a jade pillar. And after a few breaths, when he passed by the next jade pillar, he slashed on it again.
In the following process of flying, he did this every time he encountered a formation pillar.
This action caused the formation power to continuously condense. In the sky above this area, torrential rain, strong winds, lightning, thunder, and earthquakes all appeared together. It was like the end of the world!
Of course, he also used the flying sword to check in advance. He knew that there were no companions nearby so he did this.
And those insects sensed the changes in the heavens and tried to hide, but it was useless. In the face of the power of nature, the aggressive insect swarm could not resist at all and was easily swept away.
Zhang Yu clearly saw that after the bodies of the larger insects exploded, the yellowish-brown blood mist was quickly absorbed by an invisible force. The insects themselves only lasted for a moment before disappearing without a trace, not even leaving behind a trace.
His thoughts turned. Based on the situation that Hong Yuanqiu had told him, Shangchen had originally prepared a lot of creatures for harvesting, and it was very likely that these things were among them.
Perhaps in the eyes of the mastermind, it was acceptable for either side to kill the other in the conflict between the two sides. In any case, they were all resources provided for the person who broke through.
And while he was thinking, his eyes focused. Right in front of him, the outline of an incomparably huge platform gradually emerged.
