Chapter 746 - 400: Qing Guang Hall
"You exhausted your Qi, and depleted your strength. How many times have I told you, always leave some strength in reserve when making a move. Especially when facing someone from the Demon Sect, you must be vigilant and assume they have already mastered the art of self-duplication with a Blood Shadow. Even if you explode their head, what then? If they truly charge at you, what will your next move be?
If you haven’t refined your skills to destroy their Yang Crown, break their Core Heart, ruin their Dantian, and utterly dismantle their magic in a single move, refrain from showing off in public! Go back and train for ten more years!"
Zheng Mingyi was just about to bask in his fake glory when the leading senior brother behind him scolded him, leaving him no choice but to apologize meekly.
"Senior, you were right..."
"Hah, Junior Brother Chen, facing the Divine Sect in your first ordeal, you’re understandably tense. Just be more cautious in the future."
"Yes, thank you for the advice, Senior Brother Xie."
The three were still summarizing the combat at the Mountain Gate, while within the Heavenly Net Smoke Screen, Qing Guang Hall was already drenched in cold sweat.
True Light Primordial Break... So this is the power of the mountain dwellers...
But how exactly was the battle fought just now? Was it a finger technique? Or a hidden weapon? Dao Technique? Magic Spell? There were no signs of attack? Just a touch to launch a strike? Faster than the Domineering Sword initiated? How did he manage to blow up the head? I clearly didn’t see any Magic Light Qi Dao? And why didn’t the Sword Gang Qi Shield work? Meng Zhan’s Domineering Body was also activated? Could it be that this boy actually broke through the Nascent Soul Level Protective Gang Qi? A mere Golden Core? Is it possible that the True Qi this boy unleashed with one strike was even purer than Meng Zhan’s Gang Qi refined over a century in the battlefield...
Before Qing Guang Hall could figure it out, another cultivator from East Splendor Mountain took off his conical hat, revealing a round, plump, fair, amiable face like a rice shop owner, stepped forward and bowed,
"Wei Hanguang, an external disciple of Nine Heavens Temple in Jiaoyuan Cave, East Splendor Mountain, here to pay respects to the Array, seeking your guidance."
Realizing it was his turn, only to find someone else replacing him, he was clearly treated as a monster to be vanquished!
Qing Guang Hall’s face turned ashen, appearing solemn, yet he didn’t respond. His left hand hidden in his sleeve tightly gripped a skeleton, with a flying sword clamped between its teeth, ready to be launched at any moment. His right hand pinched a formula to control the magic, chanting spells under his breath, sending forth a beam of Qing Guang from the top of his head, with all his life force, sustaining the Sanmei Divine Celestial Net, swaying with the wind, seemingly not falling, while fully executing, moving his divine thought, deploying Nascent Soul methods, hastily pulling up the Heavenly Net, enveloping the entire mountain!
No, don’t panic! No matter how formidable the Demon Sect is, they are still human! No matter how pure the Qi is refined, it’s just a mere Golden Core!
But this Sanmei Divine Celestial Net in his hands is genuinely a Nascent Soul Magical Artifact! The most treasured Immortal Treasure above! Furthermore, it combines the power of three Nascent Soul True Monarchs, refined and tempered over a hundred years! Hmm, perhaps two more days are still lacking... But it’s almost there nonetheless! How could it be so easily broken!
Moreover, over these years of interaction, he realized that the Iron Sword Divine Nun might not show off her power, but her lineage possesses some secretive methods! Ci Yun Temple’s Daoist field here wasn’t randomly chosen! It’s truly a piece of Feng Shui treasure, with abundant earth vein spiritual vitality, possibly even having mines beneath, otherwise, how could it draw both him and Meng Zhan, these two Nascent Souls, to vie for it!
And over the years, the three of them have interacted for a long time and have already formed an offensive and defensive alliance, all sharing the wish of establishing sects and expanding their prestige here, hence collaborating, while Qing Guang Hall meticulously arranged a mountain gate restriction during the joint treasure refinement, diligently preparing a Magic Array Barrier. Once the Sanmei Divine Celestial Net is completed, it will shelter Ci Yun Temple’s Daoist field and stabilize the sect’s luck!
Such meticulous scheming, how could it be ruined by these three Golden Core juniors!
Observing the opponent pondering without responding, Wei Hanguang wasn’t bothered, retrieving a compass from his robe, pinching his fingers in silent calculations, his eyes sparkling as he circled the mountain gate once, calculating for a stick of incense time before speaking,
"This Array is indeed rare, seemingly based on the Eternal Reckoning, although the magic treasure was spoiled in the process, the Daoist materials used are top-notch, truly wasted by the mountain wilderness Mixed Cultivator..."
The leading Senior Brother from East Splendor Mountain coldly remarked,
"Less talk, more action, see if it can be undone."
Wei Hanguang smiled,
"No challenge, he miscalculated."
"Bullshit! Where was the mistake!"
Qing Guang Hall was instantly broken in defense.
Wei Hanguang didn’t mince words, casually breaking off a branch, pulling a few handfuls of grass, arranging it on the ground,
"甲己子午九, 乙庚丑未八, 丙辛寅申七, 丁壬卯酉六, 戊癸辰戌五, 巳亥数归四.
Eternal Reckoning within Qiankun, preceding Foothill Formation, self-transforming Taiji. Though an excellent arithmetic, this method is too ancient, no longer conforming to the heavens; it must be redrawn, with the Qiankun, situating the Five Elements before use.
Being self-taught to this stage is indeed impressive, yet without the sect’s accumulated technical archives and master-taught secret manuals, relying solely on one’s own strength to deduce the cosmos’s transformations is enormously time-consuming and laborious.
Let alone the constant immense turmoil in cosmic fortuity; in peaceful times, fortunes might remain unchanged for centuries, and previously laid Arrays might still be usable, but now, with chaos upon us, Qiankun is repeatedly upheaved, constantly amidst celestial anomalies, beyond human power control.
Look, there’s an opening at the northwest corner."
Qing Guang Hall frowned and calculated, his face turned pale, hastily relocating his Primordial Spirit, pulling the Heavenly Net for defense.
Wei Hanguang didn’t stop him, casually drawing two more lines, moving the compass in his hand,
"...Now the weakness is in the southeast."
Qing Guang Hall was speechless.
Unable to conceal.
Miscalculate naturally riddles with weaknesses, no matter how covered, irreparable, a century of effort rendered futile, deploying such a massive Array, wielding such a treasure to no avail, anyone can see the flaws, and just come and go as they please. Alas, all for nothing...
