Chapter 2172: 阵眼和破阵

As soon as the words fell, colossal waves surged across the sea. Centered around Nine Immortal Island, the ocean within a hundred thousand li radius abruptly turned blood-red. Thousands of thick, crimson light beams erupted from the seabed, forming a colossal cage that trapped the hundred thousand li expanse of sea.

The surfaces of the crimson light beams were covered with enigmatic runes, from which countless ghostly figures could be seen. These phantoms exhibited various horrific states, snarling, with disheveled hair, and chewing on severed limbs.

“This is the true Blood Sea Immortal-Slaying Formation; what you just saw was merely the Blood Corpse Formation.”

Blood Soul Fairy sneered, channeling incantations into the formation disk. The blood sea churned violently, and an ominous wind howled.

Soon after, the blood sea boiled furiously like water, and blood-red bubbles appeared on the surface. White skeletal remains surfaced, piecing themselves together to form hundreds of thousands of crimson bone corpses.

“How many people have you killed!”

Li Muyun said with a grim expression. Judging by the scale of the formation, the enemy had killed at least several million people.

“Just the high-ranking cultivators from half of the West Sea, plus a few hundred million mortals. It’s still a bit low. Give us another ten-odd years, and that number could multiply several times over.”

Blood Soul Fairy said with a beaming smile, casting an incantation.

All the bone corpses emitted a low wailing sound that reverberated across a million li, like a purgatory.

Upon hearing this sound, the four of them, including Li Muyun, felt their minds waver, experiencing an illusion of ethereal bliss.

The blood sea churned violently, emitting an intensely foul, bloody stench. Crimson spears shot forth, each adorned with enigmatic runes and shimmering with spiritual light.

The green lotus on the surface of the sword scabbard suddenly flared brightly. Nine Azure Glaze Swords flew out, and after a blur, transformed into nine green lotus flowers, floating around Wang Qingshan and spinning rapidly.

Dense green sword energy swept out, enveloping an area of several hundred zhang. The incoming barrage of crimson spears was shattered by the green sword energy.

A woman’s agonizing scream echoed as hundreds of crimson spears pierced through Wu Yun’s defenses, riddling her like a sieve.

With a muffled “thump,” a patch of crimson flames materialized, engulfing Wu Yun’s entire body.

A dazzling spiritual light flared around Wu Yun’s body, but the crimson flames showed no sign of extinguishing. With a flash of crimson light, a large blood-red bell appeared above her head and instantly descended, covering her.

A resonant bell toll sounded, and the blood-red bell emitted crimson sound waves. Soon after, a pool of blood flowed out from within the blood-red bell.

As dense crimson spears approached Feng Yu, a pair of green fleshy wings grew from his back. With a gentle flap, a strong gale arose, scattering the barrage of crimson spears.

Zhao Weiwei flipped her right hand, and with a flash of golden light, a small golden bell appeared. With a gentle shake, a resonant Sanskrit chant arose, and a shimmering golden sound wave swept out, blocking a large number of crimson spears.

Upon hearing the Sanskrit chant, the four of them, including Li Muyun, quickly returned to normal.

A look of horror appeared in Wang Qingshan’s eyes. Wu Yun was, after all, an early-stage Soul Transformation cultivator, yet she was obliterated in a moment of inattention, showing the formidable power of this Blood Sea Immortal-Slaying Formation.

A mournful phoenix cry echoed from high above. A green phoenix plummeted from the sky, its body riddled with several bloodied holes, shedding numerous feathers, revealing glimpses of white bone.

Sun Feng flipped his hand and retrieved a shimmering red feather fan. Runes flickered on its surface, and with a gentle flick, a wave of crimson flames swept out, landing on the bone corpses and reducing many of them to ashes.

The blood sea churned violently, forming massive whirlpools. Simultaneously, large amounts of fresh blood surged from the ground of Nine Immortal Island, and blood corpses crawled out from the blood sea.

The Golden Thunder Turtle let out a low roar, spewing out a golden light that transformed into a colossal golden thundercloud. The golden thundercloud churned violently, and golden thunderballs rained down, striking the blood corpses and bone corpses, instantly turning them into dust.

The blood sea roiled violently, unleashing ten-thousand-zhang-tall crimson waves that formed into gigantic blood-red hands, striking towards the five individuals including Wang Qingshan.

Wang Qingshan dared not allow the crimson hands to strike him, so he quickly released his Golden Horn Thunder Qilin Beast.

The Golden Horn Thunder Qilin Beast unleashed countless thick golden electrical arcs, shattering the attacking crimson hands.

With a deafening roar, a ten-thousand-zhang-tall bone corpse emerged from the seabed. It had the head of a dragon, the body of a tiger, the tail of a snake, and the wings of a bird, assembled from a hundred thousand blood-shimmering bones, with enigmatic crimson runes covering its joints.

The bone corpse radiated a terrifying high temperature; it was clearly a fifth-tier demonic creature.

As soon as this bone corpse appeared, a colossal skeleton, over a hundred zhang tall, emerged from the seabed. It had an ape’s head, a human body, a pair of blood-red bone wings on its back, and held a blood-red bone saber in its hand. Both the skeleton and the bone saber were covered in enigmatic runes.

Both bone corpses charged towards the five individuals, including Wang Qingshan. The sea surface churned with colossal waves, and large quantities of blood condensed into crimson spears, flying directly at the five of them.

“Senior Brother Sun, quickly find the formation’s core and break it.”

Li Muyun urged, realizing the gravity of the situation. The power of this formation was extraordinary, and breaking it would be easier by finding its core.

Sun Feng’s eyes lit up with dazzling red light as he gazed around.

“Found it. It’s on Nine Immortal Island, guarded by the Blood Shadow Race.”

Sun Feng said with a frown. In the center of Nine Immortal Island stood a towering, steep peak. Blood Soul Fairy and four other Soul Transformation cultivators each held a crimson formation disk, channeling incantations into them.

Countless streams of blood surged from the towering peak, making it resemble a mountain of blood.

“Junior Sister Zhao, Fellow Daoist Wang, Senior Brother Sun, you three go break the formation’s core. Fellow Daoist Feng and I will hold them off.”

Li Muyun commanded, his voice urgent.

The golden thundercloud high above churned violently, and dense golden thunderballs fell, striking the two colossal bone corpses with a muffled thud, like rain hitting bamboo leaves. The giant bone corpses remained unaffected.

Zhao Weiwei conjured a shimmering green small seal, which instantly expanded to the size of a towering peak and smashed towards the mountain where Blood Soul Fairy and the other four were located.

Blood Pickaxe took the crimson jade flute from his waist and began to play. Accompanied by mournful whispers of a woman, sounding both like crying and laughing, the blood on the ground automatically rose, forming a crimson cloud that held up the giant green seal.

Upon contact, the giant green seal flickered erratically, its spiritual light dimming significantly, clearly indicating a great loss of spiritual essence.

Blood Soul Fairy’s face showed disdain. They had sacrificed hundreds of millions of mortals to set up this Blood Sea Immortal-Slaying Formation; how could it be so easily broken?

Sun Feng waved his red feather fan, unleashing a large expanse of crimson flames towards the opposing side.

As the crimson flames approached the towering peak, the blood sea churned violently, forming a crimson hand that slapped the crimson flames into dust.

Wang Qingshan invoked his sword incantation, and the nine green lotus flowers immediately flared with dazzling spiritual light, merging into a single ten-thousand-zhang-tall green colossal lotus.

He opened his mouth and exhaled Azure Lotus Karmic Fire, enveloping the green colossal lotus.

“Go.”

Wang Qingshan lightly pointed his finger towards the opposite side, and the green colossal lotus, carrying a terrifying high temperature, shot straight towards the towering peak.
