Chapter 4488: Diviner Duel from a Distance (No More Today)

Coral Island, located in the Coral Sea Domain, is the ancestral land of the Liang family.

In a secluded manor, Immortal Lord Lieyang and Fang Yuyao were seated in a blue stone pavilion. Liang Zhongxin and a beautiful girl in a white dress stood respectfully to the side.

Fang Yuyao took out the Heaven's Secret Disk and handed it to the girl in the white dress. "Young friend Liang," she said, "this is the Heaven's Secret Disk. You should first refine this treasure and then, in conjunction with the formation, divine the whereabouts of this person."

The girl in the white dress was named Liang Yuying. She was a diviner at the early stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal, having recently advanced to this level and opened her seven spiritual apertures. Immortal Lord Lieyang had decided to borrow the Heaven's Secret Disk from the Star Kui clan after learning this news.

"Yes, Senior Liu," Liang Yuying responded. She accepted the Heaven's Secret Disk and withdrew.

"Young friend Liang," Fang Yuyao promised, "if you find this person, we will reward you handsomely, including elixirs to aid in breaking through to Grand Zenith Golden Immortal."

Liang Zhongxin's eyes lit up, and he eagerly agreed, his expression filled with excitement.

"I refuse to believe he can keep running forever," Immortal Lord Lieyang said, his face contorted with murderous intent. "Sooner or later, he will have to stop."

In the Vermilion Bird Sea Domain, a deserted island, over a thousand li in size, was covered in lush vegetation.

In the center of the deserted island lay a vast, accessible valley. Within it, a silver formation spanning over a thousand zhang was situated, surrounded by eighteen thick silver stone pillars. Wang Qiulin, Ye Haitang, Wang Huanyu, and Wang Chan stood beside the formation.

"It's finally set up!" Wang Qiulin exclaimed excitedly. "With this formation, I can engage in remote combat with that person!"

"Uncle is here," Ye Haitang said. After she spoke, she turned her head and looked towards the southwest.

A blue light streak flew from afar, flashing once and landing before them. It was Wang Lin.

Wang Lin summoned the Four Seasons Scroll. The scroll glowed with dazzling immortal light, and Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan emerged.

"Uncle, Aunt," Ye Haitang said, "please walk to the center of the formation. I will use the formation to assist Qiulin."

Wang Changsheng nodded, released Wang Tuntain and others, instructing them to guard the island's perimeter and prevent any unauthorized individuals from approaching.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan walked to the center of the formation and sat down cross-legged. Ye Haitang and Wang Qiulin stood to the side, waiting quietly.

To set up this Northern Dipper Reversal Formation, Ye Haitang made a special trip to Jinxiao City, where she exchanged pure seven-colored crystal cores with Luo Shan for a batch of formation materials.

This formation is a third-tier grand formation. Once activated, any diviner attempting to ascertain Shen Ting's location will be severely interfered with. While it cannot interfere with someone who has mastered the Law of Destiny, it can still provide concealment, making it effective against Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

This formation serves only as a means to interfere with the opponent, primarily to prevent them from divining Shen Ting's exact location. If the diviner were at the Grand Zenith Golden Immortal stage, this formation would be useless. However, if they truly had a Grand Zenith Golden Immortal diviner, Wang Changsheng wouldn't have been able to evade them for so long.

Two hours later, a loud whistling sound emanated from Ye Haitang. She took out a silver-glowing seven-cornered formation plate, infused it with a magic incantation, and the formation began to shake slightly. Countless mysterious runes appeared on the surface of the eighteen thick silver stone pillars.

A dazzling silver light shot up into the sky, engulfing Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

"Hmph," Wang Qiulin snorted coldly. "I'd like to see what kind of expert it is who dares to divine the location of my grandparents!" He activated the Law of Destiny, intending to engage in remote combat with the opponent, a duel unique to diviners.

Countless mysterious characters emerged and floated above Wang Qiulin's head. These characters, representing the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, formed a giant Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern.

Ye Haitang's hand seals changed, and she continuously infused incantations into the formation plate.

On Coral Island, a vast bluestone plaza featured a golden formation spanning a thousand zhang at its center. Immortal Lord Lieyang, Fang Yuyao, and Liang Zhongxin stood beside the formation.

Liang Yuying stood in the center of the formation, countless mysterious characters floating around her. Her body was enveloped in a golden light, and the Heaven's Secret Disk floated above her head.

Liang Yuying continuously formed hand seals, beginning her divination.

A short while passed, and Liang Yuying's willow-like brows furrowed. "It's shielded! I can't divine it!" she said with a frown.

"Try activating the Heaven's Secret Disk with full power!" Immortal Lord Lieyang suggested.

Liang Yuying nodded. With a command of her magic incantation, the Heaven's Secret Disk immediately burst forth with dazzling golden light and rapidly expanded.

Countless characters flew out from the formation, floating in mid-air. As Liang Yuying continued her divination, her expression grew very grim.

"What's wrong?!" Liang Zhongxin asked.

"The other party might be in one of four locations."

"Which four places?" Fang Yuyao asked.

"The Golden Snail Sea Domain, the Blood Fiend Sea Domain, the Azure Moon Sea Domain, and the Sky Night Sea Domain."

"Is there no way to narrow down the scope further?" Immortal Lord Lieyang asked with a frown. The Grand Unity Golden Immortals of the Star Kui clan could pinpoint a location to within one sea domain. Liang Yuying's divination, which resulted in four sea domains, indicated a significant disparity in ability. Was it because she had only recently advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal?

"I've tried, Senior, but it's not working," she replied.

"Try again," Immortal Lord Lieyang said, "even if you can only eliminate one sea domain."

Liang Yuying nodded. Her hand seals changed, and the Heaven's Secret Disk emitted dazzling golden light. She formed hand seals with her ten fingers, continuing her divination.

Just then, a dazzling golden light appeared high in the sky. The golden light descended, enveloping Liang Yuying.

Liang Yuying's face turned crimson, and she spat out a mouthful of vital essence blood. She collapsed to the ground, her face turning pale, her aura weak, and some of the characters around her dissipated.

Witnessing this scene, Immortal Lord Lieyang and the other two were dumbfounded. They had never seen diviners engage in a contest of divination, so they were unsure what Liang Yuying had encountered.

"The other party brought in a diviner to help," Liang Yuying said weakly, her face devoid of color. "They ambushed me while I was divining. This person's ability is superior to mine."

"A diviner even more powerful than you?" Immortal Lord Lieyang asked with a frown. "Where did he hire them from?!"

"Has the range been narrowed down?" Fang Yuyao asked.

"Sky Night Island in the Sky Night Sea Domain," Liang Yuying replied. "This person attacked me, which paradoxically allowed me to eliminate three sea domains and further narrow down the range. He is currently on Sky Night Island in the Sky Night Sea Domain."

"We will immediately head to the Sky Night Sea Domain," Immortal Lord Lieyang said. "You should recover well. Try divining again after some time. If you find anything new, send someone to inform us immediately." Immortal Lord Lieyang took out a red porcelain bottle, tossed it to Liang Yuying, and instructed her.

"Yes, Senior Liu," Liang Yuying responded.

Immortal Lord Lieyang gave a few more instructions, then departed with Fang Yuyao.

Vermilion Bird Sea Domain, a certain deserted island.

Wang Qiulin's ten fingers continuously formed hand seals, engaged in divination.

"Found it," Wang Qiulin said. "This diviner is on Coral Island in the Coral Sea Domain." He activated the Law of Destiny, and while the opponent was divining Shen Ting's location, he counter-divined the opponent's location. If he hadn't mastered the Law of Destiny, he wouldn't have been able to do it at all.

"Can she divine your location?" Wang Changsheng asked.

"Most likely not," Wang Qiulin said. "She definitely hasn't mastered the Law of Destiny. Her technique is crude, and she lacks experience. She probably relied on formations and treasures for her divination. She has already been injured by me, so she won't attempt divination again anytime soon."

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "You all stay here. We will personally make a trip to the Coral Sea Domain and find a way to eliminate this diviner." If they could eliminate this diviner, it would be a permanent solution.

He took out an exquisite green jade box and handed it to Wang Qiulin. Inside was Shen Ting's nascent soul. The opponent was divining Shen Ting's location, which allowed them to pinpoint Wang Changsheng's position. With Wang Qiulin's help, it would no longer be easy for the opponent to divine Shen Ting's location again.

Wang Changsheng gave a few more instructions, then departed from the Vermilion Bird Sea Domain with Wang Ruyan and the others.
