Chapter 123: Relic Vajra Tribulation
Bam bam bam!
Waves and waves of lightning strikes rained down continuously.
Before the previous wave dissipated, the next wave struck.
The entire sky was like a dark blue forest.
This forest made entirely of lightning was covered in dark clouds.
In the dark clouds, three meteor-like Immortal Gu Houses circled around one another, clashing from time to time, or attacking with a long range method.
As the tribulations increased in strength, the ten extreme formation was starting to fall short, the dark clouds had scattered slightly after being struck by lightning. But it had not reached the level of weakness that Heaven Overseeing Tower Lord wanted.
"Okay, I have rank seven cultivation level now." Inside Sacred Feather City, Ying Wu Xie spoke cheerfully.
"Good, we will deal with Fang Yuan first and take Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage!" Seven Star Child replied.
Ying Wu Xie nodded.
Shadow Sect had specially designed the dream path killer move, lead soul into dream, for him. They had prepared a set of Gu worms, every rank of cultivation would have a corresponding version of 'lead soul into dream'.
Ying Wu Xie's expression was serious as he started to use lead soul into dream.
"Don't be nervous, do it slowly."
"You can do it, good luck!"
The other Shadow Sect Gu Immortals were more nervous than Ying Wu Xie himself.
Rank seven dream path killer move — Lead Soul Into Dream!
Under the immortals' expectant gazes, Ying Wu Xie did not disappoint them, he successfully activated the dream path killer move.
Lead soul into dream's power was sent towards Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage formlessly.
In his previous life Fang Yuan was caught unprepared, but this time he had already prepared methods against lead soul into dream and fooled Ying Wu Xie into thinking that the immortal killer move worked.
While he once again started to hear Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's voice.
"Weird." At the same time, Ying Wu Xie scratched his head inside Sacred Feather City, having a strange expression on his face.
"What is it? You did not succeed?" The other immortals asked.
Ying Wu Xie shook his head: "They fell asleep and entered a dream, but this immortal killer move's effect is different from what was predicted."
Shadow Sect's Gu Immortals relaxed.
"Ying Wu Xie, this is the first time you are using the rank seven lead soul into dream, it is normal for it to be different from your expectations."
"Since we succeeded, we should use the opportunity to obtain this Immortal Gu House!"
Sacred Feather City moved, turning around and charging towards Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage.
At the same time, the dark clouds rumbled intensely, the ten extreme immortal zombie lifeless formation coordinated with Sacred Feather City's movement.
However, just as Sacred Feather City was about to hit Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage, Ying Wu Xie's eyes opened wide "Oh no, he escaped from it."
Boom!
At the next moment, Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage was sent flying.
Fang Yuan could not stand stably, he fell inside the Immortal Gu House.
He quickly made Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage fly upwards, causing Sacred Feather City's plan of immobilizing the Immortal Gu House to fail.
"What is going on?"
"How could he escape? That was lead soul into dream."
Ying Wu Xie scratched his head, he was worried too: "Let me try again!"
Immortal killer move — Lead Soul Into Dream!
But once again it had no effect due to Fang Yuan's methods.
"What is going on!" Inside Sacred Feather City, Ying Wu Xie screamed, he was being driven crazy.
Just as Sacred Feather City was about to get close to Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage, Fang Yuan manipulated the Immortal Gu House and escaped.
Sacred Feather City was more damaged than Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage, its speed was slower now.
"Try again." Seven Star Child's expression was grim, he had a vague guess in his mind but he did not give up.
"Mm!" Ying Wu Xie quickly nodded, activating the killer move again.
"Immortal killer move — Lead Soul Into Dream!" Inside Sacred Feather City, Ying Wu Xie shouted again.
"How is it?" The immortals looked at Ying Wu Xie.
Ying Wu Xie nodded with certainty: "He is inside the dream."
"Attack!" Bo Qing shouted, as Sacred Feather City got close to Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage.
But Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage dodged at the nick of time again.
"What is going on? Didn't he go in? Why is his reaction faster this time?" Seven Star Child frowned.
"He went in, ah, ah, no, he came out." Ying Wu Xie stammered.
The immortals were speechless.
Inside Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage.
"Oh Old Bai, at this crucial moment, I need to depend on you, my ally." Fang Yuan patted Tai Bai Yun Sheng's shoulder.
A moment ago, Fang Yuan brought out Tai Bai Yun Sheng to reinforce him.
The ten extreme immortal zombie lifeless formation restricted space path methods, Fixed Immortal Travel could not be used.
But before Fang Yuan came here, he had already sent Tai Bai Yun Sheng into his own immortal aperture!
Meanwhile, Hei Lou Lan and Fairy Li Shan were hiding inside Tai Bai Yun Sheng's immortal aperture.
"Fang Yuan! You are taking too huge of a gamble!!" Tai Bai Yun Sheng said with shock. Even though he had observed the battlefield through Fang Yuan, this old man was shocked beyond words at the involvement of Shadow Sect and Heavenly Court.
Fang Yuan laughed: "The other party has dream path methods, they might target you. Call out Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan!"
At the next moment, Hei Lou Lan and Fairy Li Shan emerged.
They had complex emotions on their faces, but among which, it was mostly shock.
Looking around, Hei Lou Lan said: "Fang Yuan, you are really good at putting yourself in danger." Her tone had a hint of admiration.
Fairy Li Shan however, said: "Oh Fang Yuan, you are dragging us into a pit of fire."
Fang Yuan smiled, waving his hand and saying grandly: "What are you afraid of? When two tigers fight, one will definitely be injured. With you helping me, the other party cannot do anything to me. With the protection of the Immortal Gu House, we might have a chance of victory! Afterwards, you will be heavily rewarded."
Fairy Li Shan felt hugely vexed internally. Because of the new alliance agreement, she had to come. Earlier, Fang Yuan had used Yi Tian Mountain and Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage to coax them into lurking in Tai Bai Yun Sheng's immortal aperture, to think that the situation had already developed beyond Fairy Li Shan's imagination!
Through the Immortal Gu House, they could see the battlefield outside, this famous Gu Immortal who had made countless connections in Northern Plains was feeling great trepidation now.
Like what Tai Bai Yun Sheng had said earlier, Fang Yuan was taking too huge of a gamble!
Could Fairy Li Shan not feel trepidation?
"Fairy Li Shan, can you contact Blazing Heaven Demoness now?" Fang Yuan observed the battlefield through the Immortal Gu House and asked.
Fairy Li Shan knew that they had fallen for Fang Yuan's scheme, she rolled her eyes and tried to contact her.
In a moment, her expression was pale as she shook her head: "No! This ten extreme formation is amazing. It can even restrict my information path methods."
Fang Yuan nodded, he did not speak.
As they continued to stall, the tribulations got stronger.
Heavenly tribulations fell one after another, there was no repetition.
Suddenly, golden light shot out from the sky, shining brightly!
Crack crack crack…
A series of crisp cracking sounds occurred.
Tens of thousands of golden vajra pearls descended from the sky in an endless fashion.
"Grand tribulation!" Shadow Sect's Gu Immortals were all taken aback.
"Hahaha, this is the relic vajra tribulation!" Inside Heaven Overseeing Tower, Heavenly Court's Gu Immortals laughed as they stroked their beards, they knew what this tribulation was.
Right now, in the sky, the first grand tribulation descended.
Relic vajra tribulation!
Even though it was not directed at them, Heavenly Court's Gu Immortals felt joy but also deep wariness.
Vajra pearls crashed into the dark clouds with crackling sounds.
This thick dark cloud could be seen thinning at a rapid pace.
Soon, the uppermost layer of dark clouds melted like ice that was mixed with hot water.
Seeing this, Shadow Sect's immortals had grim expressions, their brows were knitted.
"Great." Heavenly Court's Gu Immortals smiled, they had used this stalling tactic, it had finally started to work.
"Even without us doing anything, the other party might lose already. Hahaha." Bi Chen Tian laughed.
Heaven Overseeing Tower Lord's gaze was deep, he said with admiration and deep emotions: "The other party might have been extremely strong during his time, but how can he surpass heaven and earth? Humans should respect heaven and earth, compared to it, what can the strength of a Gu Immortal do? Looking at the rank nine Gu Venerables, which one of them could live forever?
Respecting and revering heaven and earth, following the will of heaven, this is the true way of cultivation."
"We cannot resist it head on!" The formation was controlled by people, it was naturally more flexible than the battlefield killer moves inside Yu Lu blessed land.
The dark clouds opened up a space and let the vajra pearls into the formation.
Crack crack crack…
The vajra pearls hit the three Immortal Gu Houses in the formation.
Heaven Overseeing Tower Lord sneered, he knew that Shadow Sect was planning to make Heaven Overseeing Tower endure some of the pressure for them.
Heaven Overseeing Tower Lord was unwilling to see that happen.
But he could do nothing.
He was inside the formation, there was nothing he could do.
He activated the Immortal Gu House and tried to dodge.
"Fate Immortal Gu is inside Heaven Overseeing Tower. One of the main materials in refining fate Immortal Gu is heaven's will! And these tribulations are also due to the will of heaven! Heaven Overseeing Tower, overseeing the world, we follow heaven's will and uphold justice for heaven.
Thus, under the tribulations, Heaven Overseeing Tower suffers far less damage than the other Immortal Gu Houses." Heaven Overseeing Tower Lord spoke.
The implications of his words were very obvious, he wanted to continue stalling. When the ten extreme formation reveals a flaw, he would activate the Immortal Gu House and unleash a victorious attack!
Towards this, the other Heavenly Court Gu Immortals had no objections.
"Oh no, right now, we have to endure more of the pressure, otherwise, the ten extreme formation would not last until the end."
"So what if it's a grand tribulation? Our plan defies heaven, we had already seen such a thing from Dong Fang Chang Fan. The appearance of a grand tribulation was within our expectations!"
"Sacrificing other Immortal Gu Houses to protect this Sacred Feather City, it was for this moment!!"
Shadow Sect's Gu Immortals showed resolute expressions, they were extremely prepared.
Above Sacred Feather City, a faint light appeared.
This light looked pink, but in truth, it was pure white, there was only a hint of pinkness.
But in essence, this was not a light.
It was a situation when the power of wishes was scattered.
Sacred Feather City's wish power mortal Gu were continuously activated, consumed without counting the cost.
Wish power Gu was a consumable Gu.
Obtaining the power of wishes, Sacred Feather City experienced growth in all aspects.
It flew down and blocked the relic vajra tribulation, helping the ten extreme formation endure much of the pressure.
"What an amazing tribulation, in just a short time, Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage is already showing signs of breaking." Hei Lou Lan shouted.
Fairy Li Shan's expression was ashen, her gaze was wavering.
This grand tribulation was too terrifying, if she had to face it alone, she could only endure two or three pearls.
But there were tens of thousands of vajra pearls in this grand tribulation, and they were still growing in number, unceasingly!
Fang Yuan laughed instead: "Hahaha, I was waiting for this. I will show you the true power of Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage now! Absorb!"
All of his concentration and attention was on Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage.
This Immortal Gu House could use time path methods to seal any attacks aimed at it, before sending them back at enemies.
But this method, when used, needed the controller to be completely focused, the Gu Immortal needed heavy concentration.
Under Fang Yuan's control, Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage erupted with a dazzling red light.
The red light enshrouded a large distance, burning like a raging inferno.
A mysterious strength was spread over the fire, any vajra tribulation pearl that hit the Immortal Gu House would be engulfed by the red light and sealed inside.
The rank nine immortal essence of Giant Sun Immortal Venerable allowed Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage to display its strongest ability.
Crack…
The whole Immortal Gu House shook intensely and started cracking.
It was barely able to absorb the relic vajra tribulation.
After all, this was a grand tribulation!
But Fang Yuan still succeeded.
More and more vajra pearls were controlled by him, sealed inside Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage temporarily.
However, Fang Yuan had to pay a huge price for this, the portion of Giant Sun's immortal essence he took was expended.
He took out more of Giant Sun's immortal essence.
Graceful Chaotic Duel Stage moved freely, not only was it safe in the grand tribulation, it also absorbed even more vajra pearls, its strength continuing to increase instead.
