The Xian Tian Palace members looked at each other before their gazes landed on Ji Zhong.
At this moment, Ji Zhong’s expression was as if he was in a dream and could not extricate himself. In his eyes, a corporeal light condensed and continuously expanded the hole in the ground.
Looking through the hole, it seemed to be another inverted world.
After the entrance stabilized, the light in Ji Zhong’s eyes disappeared. He seemed to have returned to normal, but he was at a loss about the scene he had created.
However, at this moment, he could clearly feel that the mysterious phoenix cry in his ears seemed to be even clearer.
The white-haired You Hao looked at Ji Zhong. “”How do you feel?”
Ji Zhong looked at the door on the ground and said softly, “”lt should be here, but I don’t know what’s going on inside.”
You Hao nodded slightly. ” It’s fine. Let’s find out the truth now. ‘
Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, said, ” Palace Master, bring Ji Zhong down. I’ll guard the entrance here. On one hand, it’s just in case. On the other hand, it’s to prevent others from rushing over. ‘
“No need. Everyone, go down together.” “There’s no need for us to hold back this time,” You Hao shook his head and said.”We don’t have the strength to divide our forces.
When the people from Xian Tian Palace heard this, they were all silent.
Today’s matter was related to the future fate of Xian Tian Palace.
If they failed, or if they didn’t get what they expected from the Upper Sky Tomb, then Xian Tian Palace’s future wouldn’t be easy.
They had to promote the rise of their new giants as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be a good outcome if they were at the mercy of others.
The bad result was a lesson learned from the decline of the Azure Cloud House and other holy lands.
Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, was the first to nod his head and confirm You Hao’s words. ‘”‘Then let’s go down together.”
He also knew that You Hao was concerned about him and had saved him some face.
More than two months ago, the news of Chen Luoyang killing the 18th level Martial Saint Cang Lantie in the Wilderness and even going head-on with the Queen of the Wilderness had already spread throughout the mortal world. Although the details were unclear and there were many different opinions, Chen Luoyang’s strength had already attracted the attention of the entire world of mortals.
Cheng Ying Tian was already one of the Red Dust Ten Heroes, and his cultivation at the 17th level was enough to fight against Elder Zhenlei, who was at the 18th level.
Previously, it was rumored that he was in seclusion. If he came out this time, who knew if he had already broken through to the eighteenth realm?
Cheng Ying Tian, who had reached this realm, was undoubtedly even more terrifying.
After Mister Tianji and the previous Palace Master Shan Jing died, the only person who could fight against them was You Hao.
Shan Jing, the former Palace Master of Xian Tian Palace, was ranked ninth.
In their Xian Tian Palace, You Hao was only inferior to Mister Tianji, Ying Xian Tian, and was on par with Shan Jing.
It was just that he had not fought for many years, so it was difficult for outsiders to know the progress of his cultivation.
On the other hand, Xian Tian Palace’s top figure in the Martial Saint Realm was naturally Shan Jing, who was the Palace Master at that time. That was why Shan Jing was ranked among the top ten Martial Saints, and You Hao did not care much about it.
It was only when Shan Jing died and You Hao took over Xian Tian Palace that he started to shine again.
Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, understood that he was probably no match for Chen Luoyang and Cheng Yingtian.
It was fine if the other party couldn’t find this place, but if they did, he could only fight to the death to buy more time for You Hao and the others.
He had already mentally prepared himself when he mentioned that he would be guarding this place.
However, You Hao was right. They would either succeed or die in this trip. Instead of splitting up and being weak, it was better to focus their full strength and advance bravely.
After pausing for a moment, Mu Chao looked at the door on the ground in front of him and muttered,”After we pass through this door, the door might still exist.”
As he spoke, he looked around.
In the parasol tree forest, there was nothing unusual.
However, Mu Chao, You Hao, and the others did not dare to relax.
” Leaving behind an ordinary array formation to conceal or guard the door probably won’t be able to stop Chen Luoyang and Cheng Yingtian. ” Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, had a solemn expression.
When the other Xian Tian Palace elders heard this, their expressions changed,
“”Could it be that I have to use the Heaven Defying Formation?”
Mu Chao nodded lightly. You Hao also said,”This is the best solution at the moment.”
Everyone in Xian Tian Palace nodded, “”1n that case, let’s act as soon as possible.”
The Heaven Defying Formation was one of the secret techniques of Xian Tian Palace.
Xian Tian Palace was proficient in divination and formations, but most of the techniques were based on following the heavens and taking advantage of the situation.
The Reverse Heaven Defying Formation was a rare formation that went against the flow. Its power was much stronger than most of his formations, and it could be considered one of the top three formations in Xian Tian Palace.
However, this formation was difficult to remove even by the person who set it up. It was a “dead lock” formation that did not distinguish between friend and foe. Anyone who entered the formation would be in danger.
The only way to break this formation was to break it down with brute force.
With You Hao, Mu Chao, and the others working together to set up the formation, it would not be easy for them to break it by force.
With this formation outside, even if one of the top ten Martial Saints came, they could still block them for a while.
Moreover, while the Heaven Defying Formation was ferocious, it also had an extremely ingenious concealment ability. It could help cover the entrance to the Parasol Tree Forest and make it difficult for others to detect it.
This way, they could buy as much time as they could for Xian Tian Palace.
Of course, on the other hand, if they encountered danger inside and wanted to retreat again, they would also be blocked by this array.
At the moment, he was not sure if there would be other opponents rushing over. Doing so was equivalent to cutting off his own retreat. You Hao’s expression was calm as he led Ji Zhong through the door.
Mu Chao and the rest entered together.
After stepping through the door, they realized that they were upside down and needed to adapt to adjust to stabilize their bodies.
It was as if he had entered a brand new world reflected in the water.
“Do it.” After gaining a firm foothold, You Hao was the first to set up the array. With him as the core, Mu Chao and the others would help him from the side.
Soon, a huge eight trigrams appeared. The eight trigrams spun and disappeared without a trace.
Clouds of gray fog appeared without warning and enveloped the door.
Looking out from the Parasol Tree Forest in the mortal world outside the door, the door on the ground slowly disappeared and returned to its original appearance of soil.
Inside the door, You Hao looked at the foggy door with a slightly pale face and exhaled. “”Let’s go.”
Xian Tian Palace’s people looked at this seemingly brand new world before them. They saw that they were on a vast plain, and there were no clouds in the sky above them.
In the sky, the sun and moon could not be seen.
However, in the western horizon, one could faintly see the flickering of flames, illuminating the earth.
You Hao turned to look at Ji Zhong, only to see that he was also looking at the western flames in a daze.
The group of people immediately set off in that direction.
In the mortal world outside, in the parasol tree forest, a young man in luxurious clothes walked out not long after.
He looked around and after a while, he confirmed his target and arrived at the area where the Heaven Defying Formation was set up by Xian Tian Palace.
The scene in front of him seemed ordinary, but this young man in luxurious clothes stepped forward and stepped around the door that was covered. As soon as he got close, the array immediately came into effect.
Layers of gray fog engulfed the young man.
However, pure golden flames immediately surged out of the young man’s body. They were like golden light and raging flames. They kept burning and blocked the gray fog that wanted to devour him.
The golden light and flames burned the gray fog continuously and began to expand outward, sweeping away the fog.
The fog seemed to be endless. After being partially burned by the golden light and flames, it was immediately replenished.
Although the flames were powerful and overbearing, suppressing the gray fog and gradually dispersing it, overall, the speed at which the fog dispersed was very slow. It would take a certain amount of time to completely expel it.
“Reverse Heaven Defying Formation?”
The Southern Chu Fengxiang Marquis Cheng Yingtian smiled.
Apart from cultivating the South Chu Royal Family’s Glorious Scroll of Ultimate Arts, he had also received the knowledge and ultimate arts of Xian Tian Palace from his father, Mister Tianji. Naturally, he could recognize the techniques of You Hao and the others.
The other party was obviously guarding against him.
He was a Xian Tian Palace expert and had great attainments in formations and divination.
Unless a big shot made a move, a normal array would be dismantled by him very quickly.
This kind of dead knot that even the person who set up the formation couldn’t solve was equivalent to wiping out Cheng Ying Tian’s specialty in this aspect, forcing him to break through the level by force, and using this to slow down his pace.
However, Cheng Yingtian didn’t mind. He raised a hand with a calm expression.
His index and middle fingers were like a sword, and a sword light suddenly extended from his fingertips.
The sword light was completely blood-red, but it flickered with a bright golden light.
Cheng Ying Tian struck out with his sword. The sword light was everywhere, and the grey fog in front of him retreated.
His speed of breaking the Heaven Defying Formation increased greatly.
After breaking through to the 18th realm, Cheng Ying Tian’s realm had not only increased, but his knowledge had also become more profound.
The vast gray fog quickly dispersed in front of him.
On the ground, the door lost its cover and returned to its original appearance.
Cheng Ying Tian lowered his head and looked through the door, as if he was looking up at the sky.
He smiled and stepped in.
After Cheng Ying Tian disappeared, another person appeared in the Parasol Tree Forest.
He looked to be in his forties, wearing the South Chu Dynasty’s python robe, and had a calm expression.
It was one of the top experts of the South Chu Royal Family, Qing Ling King Cheng Ye.
Just now, due to the fog covering him, he was unable to see Cheng Ying Tian’s attack clearly. However, his strength seemed to be higher than he had expected…Cheng Ye pondered and leaned forward.
He looked at the door on the ground and pondered.
What was Cheng Ying Tian’s motive for coming here?
He frowned and felt that the situation was more and more unusual. He immediately sent a letter back to the South Chu Imperial City before carefully stepping into the door in front of him.
After Cheng Ye, Chen Luoyang appeared.
He observed the door on the ground with interest while paying attention to the latest situation on Ji Zhong’s side.
The white jade bottle was temporarily unable to find any information about Ji Zhong, but Chen Luoyang had thought of other ways to feed Ji Zhong the leaves of the Divine Tree of Life Creation. This allowed him to grasp the other party’s vague movements to a certain extent through the Green Wood Edict Talisman.
Just as Chen Luoyang was sensing Ji Zhong’s location, he suddenly saw that the door in front of him was covered by a gray fog..
