Chapter 174: Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation!
??
As this place was affected by the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, no one could tell that the lightning in the sky was caused by Heavenly Punishment. They thought it was caused by the Secret Realm.
More and more lightning energy gathered and poured into the crack. In comparison, the formation they formed was not inferior. Divine light appeared and interweaved complicated patterns on the ground, filled with a powerful aura.
One could vaguely see divine beasts swimming among them. The Azure Dragon’s roar was extraordinary. The White Tiger’s descent shook the sky. The shadows of the Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise shuttled among them, guarding the north, south, east, and west.
This formation was called the Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation! It was a long-lost ancient formation. Later generations restored it. Just by hearing its name, one could tell how powerful it was. Even Immortals could be trapped in it, let alone Gu Xi.
However, what everyone did not know was that the lightning they saw today was only the tip of the iceberg. Above the Nine Heavens, a red shadow flashed past, bringing with it a supreme aura as it sped toward them.
The crack was finally completely torn open, and they could vaguely see something flowing within it.
“It’s coming!”
Everyone was on high alert. The light of the formation shone on their faces, and they looked up at the sky. As the lightning dragons raged, everyone’s eyes widened.
The sky was torn apart by violence.
“What is that–”
A blinding light suddenly burst out, causing everyone to lose their sight for a moment. By the time they could see clearly, the ball had already descended.
It was an incomparably huge lightning dragon! It could be said to be the largest lightning dragon they had ever seen in their lives!
Everyone’s attention was attracted by the ferocious lightning dragon. However, they did not notice the black shadow that was hovering in the air. It was as if it was toying with everything.
Boom!
A deafening sound was heard, and everyone was caught off guard by the explosion. The disciples were not prepared at all and were blown to pieces.
The shadow in front of the lightning dragon was too fast, like a gust of wind. It was intentionally or unintentionally approaching the center of the formation, and the lightning dragon was also chasing after it relentlessly.
Boom! Boom!
From time to time, lightning would fall, trying to suppress the person who challenged its dignity. Unfortunately, the speed of the shadow was too fast, and it did not even touch the corner of his clothes. Instead, it was the disciples in the formation who suffered.
“Damn it, what’s going on?”
The Sect Masters looked at the disciples inside the formation who were blown up by the lightning. Their hair stood up, and a faint burning smell came from the air. The scene was quite comical.
However, no one could laugh.
The Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation, which was full of sacred power, was now collapsed by the divine beast’s shadow. The disciples fell to the ground. It was difficult to lock a person, let alone locking an Immortal.
“Aiya –”
“I didn’t expect everyone to welcome me with such a powerful formation. I’m really flattered.”
A male voice came from the sky, and everyone looked up. It was Gu Xi!
“So all of this was your doing!”
The faces of the Sect Masters were so angry that they were about to turn askew. They looked at the formation that they had meticulously prepared, and it was now in a mess.
“It’s impolite not to reciprocate. You guys have given me such a big gift, so naturally, you have to return the gift,” Gu Xi said confidently.
The Sect Master of the Ancient Sect sneered, “Do you think that just because of this, we can’t do anything to you?”
After saying that, the Sect Masters and their personal disciples attacked together. Spiritual power soared into the sky and rose up from the ground, pouring into the Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation that had been destroyed.
The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise returned once again. As the few Sect Masters were in charge of the core this time, the power they emitted was almost a hundred times stronger than before. In an instant, the sky was filled with divine light, it completely covered up the power of the lightning.
Right in the center of the formation, a thick and sturdy iron chain suddenly attacked Gu Xi. The pressure spread out, and it carried an overbearing force that could not be ignored, wanting to suppress him within.
Gu Xi did not have the time to resist at all. His four limbs were locked by the iron chain, and his entire body seemed to be unable to move. The formation flashed with golden light, and he was dragged back into the formation by the iron chain.
“If it wasn’t for capturing him alive and forcing him to reveal the matters regarding the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, why would we need to go through so much trouble?”
When the Sect Masters saw this, they decided to teach Gu Xi a lesson later. However, they did not notice the hidden smile on Gu Xi’s lips.
Even though Gu Xi was bound by the iron chains, his aura did not change. He raised his head to look at the sky and muttered to himself, “It should be here soon.”
“What’s coming?” His sentence left them confused.
“This kid is just deliberately trying to be mysterious.”
The red figure in the clouds was getting faster and faster. In just a moment, he had arrived here. Finally, someone noticed something strange in the sky.
“Huh, what’s that red dot?”
They were clearly still far away, but it arrived in the blink of an eye. Seeing the red dot approaching, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
“It seems to be getting closer and closer to us.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the red lightning tore through the sky like a ferocious ancient beast descending into the world. The power of the lightning wreaked havoc. Regardless of whether it would harm others or not, wherever it passed, it would instantly turn into scorched earth.
Everyone’s eyes widened, and their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.
They watched as the red lightning ferociously smashed towards Gu Xi’s position. It was even worse than the purple lightning from before, causing their hearts to tremble.
In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Everyone could not avoid it in time, so how could they still have the time to capture Gu Xi?
Boom!
Everyone felt as if their eardrums were about to be shattered. How could the grand array from before have experienced such destruction? The lightning strike caused it to turn into scorched earth. The famous Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation was destroyed by this lightning.
The thick smoke blurred everyone’s vision. Gu Xi seemed to have been drowned in the void along with the lightning.
