Buzz —
Before Du Lingyun could make the next move, a harsh buzzing sound came from the direction of the Everlasting Mountain. The dark green formation changed further. A wave of invisible Spiritual Qi spread out from the Everlasting Mountain. The woods at the foot of the Everlasting Mountain kept emitting a pale green fluorescent light. At the same time, the verdant woods withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What's going on?" Du Lingyun looked at Yuanzuo in confusion. He knew nothing about formations, so he could only wait for Yuanzuo to explain it to him.
"I don't know either. I've never seen this formation before. But judging from the dead trees and the life energy absorbed, this must be a sacrificial formation, and the target of the sacrifice is not the one who set up the formation.
"Sacrifice, sacrifice?" After listening to Yuanzuo's answer, a series of things gradually connected in Du Lingyun's mind. "Using the power of a world to help the transcendence of the Everlasting Mountain … So that's how it is, so that's how it is! No wonder Ning Wanli tried so hard to send Ning Shiyi to the Everlasting Mountain. The Everlasting Mountain is so crazy! "
At this point, Du Lingyun understood everything. Ning Wanli did not simply want his daughter to be successful, so he sent her to the Everlasting Mountain. Now it seemed that things were not like that at all. He did not want Ning Shiyi to be successful in the Everlasting Mountain. Instead, he knew the plan of the Everlasting Mountain in advance. In order to let his daughter survive the upcoming disaster, he put in so much effort.
"What do you mean, big brother?" Yuanzuo looked at Du Lingyun in confusion.
"The people of the Everlasting Mountain are all crazy. Let me ask you, how much area can such a large sacrificial formation cover?!" Du Lingyun looked at the translucent formation that covered the entire Everlasting Mountain and asked Yuanzuo.
"I don't know. I don't know much about the sacrificial formation. But such a large formation, once it is officially activated, it can at least extend to a few hundred miles."
"A few hundred miles?" Du Lingyun looked back at the direction of the Everlasting Mountain. "Then we won't be able to escape in time. Follow me, if we don't want to die, we have to find a way to get into the Everlasting Mountain!" “
Du Lingyun and Yuan Zuo, two Separation Realms who could not fly, would not be able to outrun this array with a radius of a few hundred li. Their only way out was to charge into the interior of Longevity Mountain before the array's power was fully unleashed. This sacrificial array would not affect the interior of Longevity Mountain unless the cultivators of Longevity Mountain were all madmen.
Carrying the unconscious Black Owl with one hand, Du Lingyun and Yuanzuo sprinted in the direction of the Everlasting Mountain. Soon, they arrived at the withered forest.
The moment they stepped into the forest, Du Lingyun and Yuanzuo felt a certain energy in their body being sucked away. Their faces paled immediately. Even if they were cultivators, they would not be able to resist the constant sucking of life force from their bodies when they stepped into the range of the sacrificial formation. Fortunately, the sacrificial formation was not fully activated yet. It was not powerful enough to drain two Dividing Wheel State cultivators dry in a short period of time.
"These pills are for you. Eat them all and we will rush up the Everlasting Mountain in one go. Don't stop!" Du Lingyun took out a bottle of pills from his Cosmos Bracelet and threw it to Yuanzuo. Then, he opened a bottle and stuffed it into his mouth. As he did so, he did not forget to stuff a few pills into the mouth of the unconscious Black Owl. As for whether the Black Owl could survive the sacrificial formation, it would depend on whether he was lucky enough.
Passing through the withered forest, they sped towards the Everlasting Mountain. Soon, Du Lingyun and Yuanzuo arrived at the foot of the Everlasting Mountain. Looking up from the foot of the mountain, they could see the gigantic mountain gate of the Everlasting Mountain.
Arriving at this place, the two of them no longer felt the constant sucking of life force. The Black Owl on Du Lingyun's shoulder was also lucky enough to escape. Carrying the Black Owl, Du Lingyun and Yuanzuo walked in the opposite direction of the mountain gate. Soon, Du Lingyun saw an execution ground.
Originally, there should have been a large number of cultivators guarding the mountain gate. But now, the huge mountain gate was only left with a ground full of corpses. Dozens of cultivators wearing the robes of the Everlasting Mountain had died a horrible death on the bluestone steps. The bluestone steps were dyed red and blood was still dripping down the stone steps.
"Ugh … this, this is too tragic." Yuanzuo looked at the corpses all over the ground and almost vomited.
"This is the manifestation of Zhang Ning's hatred. That monster only has the hatred in Zhang Ning's heart towards the Everlasting God Mountain. Moreover, my left eye can see the monster's soul. That is definitely not the soul strength of a foundation establishment stage cultivator like Zhang Ning. I don't know how many people died because of the Everlasting God Mountain to have such a soul."
Du Lingyun's expression didn't change at the tragic scene in front of him. Unlike Yuanzuo, who had fainted from being thrown by the Triple Angry Soldier, Du Lingyun had just experienced the experience of being torn to pieces by the Triple Angry Soldier. Compared to the shock of his own death, these people's deaths were not even worth mentioning.
As the saying goes, disaster may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing in disguise. The Triple Angry Soldier's soul attack had greatly improved Du Lingyun's mental state. Now that Du Lingyun's heart had suffered a huge blow, he had become a 'steady' cultivator.
"Yuanzuo, go find a place to hide Uncle Black Owl. We can't bring him along like this. I'll go over there first. I can hear the sounds of fighting." “
Du Lingyun handed the Black Owl over to Yuanzuo and turned to look at the middle of the mountain. There were continuous sounds of explosions. It was clear that the Everlasting Mountain cultivators were fighting with the enemy. As for whether the enemy was a member of Heaven Reaching Tower or an unknown existence like Zhang Ning, he didn't know.
"I understand. Then I'll go find you after I've settled Uncle Black Owl. Big Junior Brother, be careful." Yuanzuo took the Black Owl and turned to walk into the depths of the mountain. He wanted to find a place to hide the Black Owl.
Du Lingyun watched as Yuanzuo left. Then, he turned and walked towards the middle of the mountain. Along the way, Du Lingyun passed through the buildings of Everlasting Mountain. From time to time, he would see some Dividing Wheel Stage cultivators running towards the middle of the mountain. Du Lingyun had been carefully hiding his position. Moreover, those cultivators were in a hurry. Erm, even after several batches of cultivators passed by, they still didn't notice him.
Following those cultivators all the way to the middle of the mountain, the first thing that Du Lingyun saw was the tall tower that stood at the top of the mountain like a lightning rod. At the top of the tower, there was a thick pillar of light that connected to the translucent array in the sky. It was a rich and vibrant green color. Clearly, the energy that was absorbed by the sacrificial array had been transferred here.
Turning back to the front, all sorts of richly ornamented ancient buildings were arranged in an orderly manner. Dozens of Everlasting Mountain cultivators, under the leadership of a black-haired, short-bearded Unity Core Realm cultivator, were maintaining some kind of array. That short-bearded cultivator was the Mountain Dragon Pavilion's Peak Lord, Shi Tuo.
In the array that Shi Tuo was leading, the person that was surrounded was Zhang Ning, who had already transformed into the Tri-Angry Soldier. As the Dragon Pavilion's Peak Lord, Shi Tuo's direct combat strength was inferior to Mo Youyan's, and his cultivation was also inferior to the Sect Master, Liu Yunxiao. However, he had a unique talent in arrays. Since young, he had been studying arrays. Other than his cultivation, he didn't even learn any offensive techniques. Instead, he poured all his energy into arrays.
At this moment, the array that was trapping Zhang Ning was an improvement that Shi Tuo had made on the previous array. This array was able to connect the people who set up the array together. As long as the strength of the array did not exceed the limits of Shi Tuo's control, the more people there were, the more powerful the array would be.
The Tri-Angry Soldier that Zhang Ning had transformed into was surrounded by them. That array condensed the strength of dozens of Everlasting Mountain cultivators. As the eye of the array, Shi Tuo was able to move freely in the array. No matter which direction the Tri-Angry Soldier tried to break out from, he would be able to block in front of it. As for the Tri-Angry Soldier that had lost its rationality, it only had powerful strength and divine soul. However, it didn't know how to use them, so it could only fly around the array like a housefly.
For a moment, the Tri-Angry Soldier that had instantly killed Mo Youyan was actually firmly controlled by Shi Tuo. This made Du Lingyun, who was hiding at the side, to secretly mutter in his heart, "I have to find some time to study the various basic knowledge that I am lacking. Otherwise, I will end up like this Tri-Angry Soldier in the future, only having a body full of brute force but not being able to use it."
At this moment, Du Lingyun didn't notice that while he was secretly observing Shi Tuo and the Tri-Angry Soldier, there was also a person observing the battle from the roof behind him.
