Chapter 1103 - 558: Strategy Failed
Chen Xuantian was also stunned.
Brain dead? Huh? Paralysis? Huh? Stupid—disabled???
Sometimes Chen Xuantian really has to admit, relying on others is not as good as relying on himself, because people really can’t be friggin’ relied on...
Sigh, it’s really exhausting, can’t even take a break? How come you guys start your own tribulation, letting him fight from beginning to end, right? Weren’t you beating your chest boasting! What about deducing for hundreds of years! Schemed for thousands of years! Prepared for a lifetime? And this is what happens on stage? Just this??? Just this!??
Chen Xuantian was truly speechless, he really miscalculated, he thought the Inverted Immortal’s claim of controlling sixty pillars was like his own, randomly shooting from three hundred magic pillars, at most sixty times. Who knew only sixty pillars of Array Diagram were memorized!
Sigh, indeed most people in this world are incurable trash, fools with sudden flashes of inspiration. If it were him, he’d truly rack his brains and couldn’t think of it, knowing this setup already! Haven’t even learned the Array completely! How dare they come to undergo tribulation! Just fooling ghosts!?
"Bang!!"
"Boom!!"
"Ow!!"
"Ahhhhh!"
But whether you fail or are incompetent, cocky or foolish, the Heavenly Dao remains emotionless and will-bearing, immovable. The half-struck thunder can’t be taken back for you to be ready again.
Thus, the fourth Heavenly Thunder fell irresistibly, landing a strike on the Sealed Dragon God Statue, and with no one to drive the thunder power, no pillar to absorb it, it scattered like a mercurial flood, bursting out like a flash flood, spreading everywhere. Surging electric waves spread out across the plaza, lifting and smashing Han White Jade bricks on the ground.
With lightning speed, each strike in an instant, the Inverted Immortal was caught completely off guard, with no time to react, directly struck and sent flying with a "boom!". Fortunately, he was in the right place, the weakest spot of thunder power in the Great Array, otherwise he would’ve been struck to ashes by a single thunderbolt. Instead, he was charred half to ashes, with flesh flying about, while the remaining half caught fire, smoking, spinning out of the array, scorched like a roast quail, lying charred on the ground, emitting a meaty fragrance.
There goes the Kunlun Team, down and out...
Chen Xuantian could only sigh and say "damn", couldn’t hold on any longer, had to grit his teeth and take a flying leap, tunneling into the arena, replacing the Inverted Immortal in his magic position.
At once, he scattered his aura, pinched the formula, stood like a golden rooster on one leg, balancing on his tiptoes, left foot on the ground, right leg raised to the waist, left hand pinching the formula at his chest, right hand pointing to the sky, chanting loudly, spewing electric Daoist energy from his seven orifices, invoking divine insight.
In an instant, he took control, swiftly conducting crisis management, assessing the scene.
Hmm, no worries, the situation isn’t dire yet.
Cough, not that he’s being stubborn or holding out, this round hasn’t yet reached the point of overturning.
After all, you thought the Heavenly Tribulation was easy to pass? Heaven needs face, you know.
No matter what, a thunder can’t be missing, owing six thousand years of Thunder Punishment, only four over now, dare to emerge and it’ll destroy you. That’s why Lord Yun Meng dares not show his face, and even if he lifted sixty pillars, he still has to obediently squat within the array, doesn’t he?
Besides, Yuqingzi has his say too, you really think he’s playing around inserting so many pillars? There’s a reason for filling three hundred Thunder Pillars. If even pushing out sixty can break the array and escape, then why bother with such a big Array, might as well just thrust five pillars into a spot, it’d be tougher, wouldn’t it!
In short, although at this moment it’s missing the sixty copper pillars surrounding the Dragon God Statue in the core area, there’s still two hundred and forty pillars sealing it. Far from being overturned yet. What’s more, the array change happening now actually isn’t a bad thing for Chen Xuantian.
After all, the previous three hundred pillars were somewhat beyond his calculation limits, now with twenty percent less, variables greatly reduced, he can actually control the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder.
But still, fewer pillars basically are like those Evil Demons and Heretics, taking shortcuts. This Heavenly Tribulation has already been harvested by Two-pole Magnetic Thunder Strike Talisman halfway, now it’s missing parts too, surely insufficient to kill the Dragon King. What’s difficult is the aftermath after surviving the tribulation...
No matter! Cross that bridge when you come to it! Thunder Boom!!!
"Boom!"
"Ow ow ow ah ah ah ah————!!"
Change of players, immediate effect, even the cries are different.
Previously the tactics of the Inverted Immortal were like crooked paths, thunder power being weakened in various ways, the descending Thunder Light poured like water, scattered on sixty pillars like acupuncture.
However, Chen Xuantian used the real "Supreme Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Jade Scripture" True Transmission. As he called out, the thunder strike fell, guided by the Divine of Magic, condensed into a torrent-like thunder river, like a Heavy Hammer in copper pillars flipping and jumping, ricocheting, hitting two hundred and forty times, in an instant hammering the Dragon King down.
Those originally shaking and on the verge of collapse two hundred and forty copper pillars, now bolstered by Heavenly Thunder, lit up with the Shenxiao Thunder Talisman on the pillars! Instantly blooming in large patches of gold-red brilliance! Like drill bits stabbing downward into the ground! Brightly burned Thunder Pillars penetrating five feet deep into the earth! Piercing the ground spilling out blood! A fountain of blood gushing out! Immediately dyeing the altar array in a crimson!
"Boom!"
"Ow ow ow ah ah ah ah————!!"
"Boom!"
"Ow ow ow ah ah ah ah————!!"
"Boom!"
"Ow ow ow ah ah ah ah————!!"
