Divine Brilliance

Chapter 723: Hanxi Breaks Out Of The Cocoon

On Yugang Mountain Peak, there were already three God Statues hanging in mid-air.

The one that appeared this time was a huge giant.

It was 6,500 feet, after stepping in the air, its body flashed a green light.

It looked demure like that of a woman, while also giving off a God Saint-like aura around its body.

With a wave of her hand, millions of wooden vines shot out from the ground and tangled towards Zong Shou.

There were also huge amounts of flowers that covered the sky and floated downwards.

Zong Shou was caught slightly off guard by this, a flower petal pierced through his Body Protecting Energy.

It was extremely sharp and was able to actually directly pierce into his left arm. It swiftly transformed, turning into wooden vines, using his flesh and blood as food to swiftly spread out.

Zong Shou’s brow rose, after using his soul power to lead over a thread of Death Energy to inject over, he directly killed and withered the vine.

In the next instant, the True Martial Heavy Sword and the Blazing Flame Axe slashed down.

Zong Shou flashed and avoided the sword, however, he wasn’t able to dodge the axe.

He could only slash back to clash against the axe. Many pieces of mind stones exploded in his sleeves. Numerous pure spiritual energy was being swallowed into his body while using the Heaven Swallowing Energy Conversion Technique. It caused Zong Shou’s aura to climb to its peak once more!

Nine Dragon Shadow Platinum Sword!

Dang!

Another giant ring resounded as the fire axe broke into pieces. The incarnation of the Fire God True Lord slightly stumbled backward.

Zong Shou flew backward once more. This time, he was in a worse state, he struggled for three thousand feet before he managed to stop himself.

Qiuhua’s laughter sounded out in his ears.

The Fire Phoenix formed up once more and charged over at Zong Shou.

Following it was also several spells and Magical Artifacts which struck from all directions, locking down the surroundings which he could dodge at.

His eyes squinted. It seemed like all of them were trying to kill him at once.

His lips curled coldly. Actually, he still had a sword to slay one of the God Spirit incarnations.

However, because of the Cause and Effect ability of the Space-time technique, they both used up huge amounts of soul power.

The moment the sword slashed out, it might suck him dry. The mind stones could replace True Qi, however, it couldn’t replace spiritual energy. He did have many soul stones but the Nameless Sword couldn’t absorb it to form the green flame.

The Spirit Realm cultivators seemed to know about his ability, hence, they stood far away within the protection range of the True Martial God Spirit. They retracted their soul power and True Qi so he couldn’t swallow much of them. They also defended against him such that he couldn’t rush onto the mountain peak to slaughter the disciples.

When this series of thoughts flashed across his head, the Corrosive Flame power was already close nearby. If it was in the past, he would have needed to spend some effort to break this trap. However, there was no need to worry about it at this moment.

“Little Gold!”

He suddenly called out, Jinhao’s shoulder plate immediately appeared.

He looked like Zong Shou when he was young, even forming the Nameless Sword too.

With a flash of the sword light, it easily dispersed the Fire Phoenix. It then slashed all over to break all the surrounding spells and artifacts.

A ten thousand feet wing spread out behind it as it moved. While very flexibly and nimbly circling Zong Shou, bringing with it numerous black flame specks. Like a moving shield, it helped Zong Shou block the surrounding cultivators.

Zong Shou simply stopped bothering about them, the sword light in his hand slashed the vines which tangled over. He then thrust out, clashing with the True Martial Giant Sword once more.

The sword energy surged. The True Martial Heavy Sword which was formed from God Power was struck by thread after thread of sharp sword energy, breaking into many pieces. Zong Shou spat out blood once more and retreated two thousand feet out.

Coincidentally, he also avoided the giant axe of the Fire God True Lord.

He predicted this in advance, after using up his mind stones which were running out, he carried heavy injuries to force back the Fire God True Lord by several feet and destroy his weapon.

After breaking up their coordination tempo, the effects finally became more apparent.

However, with the three gods working together, he couldn’t find any chance to counter. He could only continue to retreat.

Each sword and axe would make him retreat around a thousand feet.

In just a few blinks of the eye, he was ten thousand feet away.

Although he wasn’t in despair, he was still in a tough situation.

Frowning, Zong Shou glanced at the green giant on the peak.

This one was definitely the Ten Thousand Wood Green Emperor, it was on the same level as the other two Lords.

Three God Spirit Incarnations, even the weakest one could cause a headache.

If he was careless, then he would be restricted by the vines and flowers, unable to break free.

The Green God’s light spread out a hundred thousand feet, all the injuries of the six sects’ disciples were all swiftly healing.

The over ten Spirit Realm experts who were slightly injured under his attacks were showered by the green light, they quickly recovered in just a few breaths.

Great Recovering Awakening Technique!

This technique was slightly weaker than his Soul Returning Technique. However, the latter was only good at reviving while this was better at healing.

No wonder the Ten Thousand Wood Green Emperor could be on the same level as the True Martial God Lord.

There was also a Taoist on the peak who threw out a scroll.

It actually spread out a hundred thousand feet, numerous restrictions appeared in the sky and scattered all about.

All the disciples, as long as they were Grade-4 and above, those who could fly all flew up to stabilize the restriction zones.

The moment the formation was set up, space was tightly sealed.

Because the teleportation formation was still running. This time, another ten people came over.

Although there weren’t Intermediate Spirit Realm experts like Wuhua, but without an exception, they were still all within the Spirit Realm. Each one of them were filled with killing intent.

“Formation drawing?”

Zong Shou’s eyes squinted. He spun the sword light in his hand, deflecting the True Martial Heavy Sword to slash to the side.

At this moment, there were thirty Spirit Realm experts attacking him. Little Gold couldn’t take it anymore and sometimes he would have to defend himself to protect against the attacks.

However, it became increasingly tougher under the giant axe as well as those randomly dancing giant vines.

“That’s right! Ruler is so knowledgeable. This is my faction’s Eight Trigram Golden Lock Formation, in terms of its space restricting ability, it’s above the Space Falling Star Sinking Plate! It was specially crafted to kill those demons...”

Qiuhua was truly impressed. “This formation also has other abilities which Ruler can test for yourself!”

His calm voice was filled with a teasing tinge to it. He seemed quite elegant and really composed. The current Zong Shou didn’t really care about anything else, he found it extremely tough to block the attacks much less injure others.

The many Spirit Realm experts attacking him meant that they didn’t need to be as careful like before.

Right away, Zong Shou was personally experiencing one of the abilities of this formation.

He felt that there were threads of weird energy spreading from space trying to lock down his body.

Although it didn’t succeed, but each time, he could feel that his moves would face resistance and his body wasn’t as nimble as before.

He was unable to alternate between being in and out of this world. Not only did he have to deal with the Spirit Realm cultivators, but the Grade-9 ones in the distance could also injure him.

In just a short few breaths his body was covered in dozens of wounds.

Despite his body’s training, going through years of iron sand training. Grade-8 Spiritual Weapons couldn’t harm him at all. While Grade-9 ones could barely stab into his skin.

However, at this moment under the relentless strikes, he found it hard to take them all.

Even with all this, his eyes didn’t show any panic at all. He was still extremely cold, his killing intent becoming even thicker.

At this moment, the number of Spirit Realm cultivators along with the three sets of True Martial Sword Formations, reached fifty. Although the teleportation formation was still running, but it was only some Grade-9 ones. There weren’t any more Spirit Realm experts.

It was either there no more Spirit Realm experts within the Daoling Vast Habitat or they weren’t planning to send anymore over.

This meant that it was time for him to begin.

His eyes turned as he started to focus on the Eight Trigram Gold Lock Formation.

The so-called formation diagram was similar to the Mountain Protecting Formation. However, it was arranged on a diagram that could be shifted and instantly formed up.

Laws couldn’t be carried on normal materials. This was even more so for such spiritual formations which were made up of many laws.

This was why one formation diagram consumed huge amounts of materials. After it was crafted, it could only be used for a few times and thus was extremely precious.

The Daoling Vast Habitat was really going all-out for him.

However, this time, it actually benefited that thing...

Where he focused on was a Grade-5 double cultivator and the corner of the formation.

His spiritual sense spread out and he connected with Hanxi.

That day, he split up the seven cacoons among the Yelan Temple disciples.

Some were hidden in mounts, however, only Hanxi was directly implanted into the body of this Grade-5 cultivator.

He wanted to borrow his flesh and blood to raise the cocoon. With Hanxi’s ability, it didn’t need to fear other spirit masters noticing.

Who knew that there would be such benefits...

In the next instant, the face of the cultivator turned white, clearly devoid of blood.

Hanxi was breaking out of its cocoon within.

All the people around didn’t notice anything. Only the Ping An Temple Sect Leader Linghai looked above with a weird expression.

He had a weird expression in his eyes. But this was also considering how he just used the soul sacrifice technique to burn his soul.

He suffered heavy injuries just to force that ‘demon’ out of Yugang Mountain along with Qiuhua. When the Daoling Vast Habitat Spirit Realm experts rushed over to help only did he retreat. While he healed up, he could also help to protect the twenty thousand Six Sect disciples.

However, he felt that there was something wrong with the formation.
