by post_apiVolume 6 Chapter 131: Gathering at Black Emperor Cliff (Part 12)
The "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" fighting against the "All Immortals Formation" represents the highest level of conflict between good and evil.
The "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" relies on the thousands of years of resources from the "Ming" organization, with countless spirit stones powering and maintaining it, while the "All Immortals Formation" depends on the combined strength of many cultivators from the Righteous Alliance.
When the two sides clashed, an incredible force erupted.
As soon as the "All Immortals Formation" was activated, it instantly transformed into four or five hundred Immortal Puppets made entirely of the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Qi. Although these Immortal Puppets were formless, each one contained enormous energy, with strength equivalent to cultivators at the peak of the Golden Core Stage to the early Nascent Soul stage.
Within the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods," lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, with fierce winds howling, and the space twisted as the powers of heaven and earth went wild under the formation’s control. However, the Immortal Puppets remained fearless, charging into the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" like lightning. Despite the chaos within the formation, every bolt of lightning that struck saw the Immortal Puppets already flying over a hundred feet away, leaving only afterimages crushed by the force of the space’s distortion. The fierce winds were unavoidable, but although they were bone-chilling, the Immortal Puppets’ bodies were incredibly solid, providing no threat in the short term.
Four or five hundred Immortal Puppets, upon entering the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods," transformed into hundreds of white beams of light, swiftly advancing towards the "Black Emperor Cliff," which was the heart of the formation.
However, the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods," known as the deadliest formation in the cultivation world, was far from ordinary. As the Immortal Puppets advanced deeper, the pressure they felt increased significantly. The lightning in the sky struck faster and became more concentrated, and the power of the violent winds grew more intense. The occasional spatial distortions at the edges of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" became a common sight deeper within the formation.
Under the frenzied winds, the speed of the Immortal Puppets noticeably decreased. The terrifying lightning in the dark clouds began to strike the Immortal Puppets, and the space around some of them suddenly twisted. Although they eventually broke free using their great strength, the Immortal Spirit Qi that was once vividly clear on them had faded significantly.
When the first Immortal Puppet finally collapsed under the continuous attacks, Immortal Zizhen outside the formation slightly frowned and said to Qinglingzi beside him, "Change the formation!"
Qinglingzi nodded slightly and waved his hand to shoot a colorful light into the sky again.
When the colorful light shot by Qinglingzi appeared, the cultivators inside the "All Immortals Formation" suddenly looked serious, and the hand signs they were making changed dramatically. Suddenly, in the misty white light emanating from the "All Immortals Formation," golden light began to emerge. Under the cultivators’ control, this golden light grew quickly, and in the end, transformed into thousands of Golden Celestial Soldiers, each holding a golden spear, wearing golden armor, and standing several meters tall.
The strength of the Golden Celestial Soldiers was clearly not as strong as the Immortal Puppets that had appeared before, but they had the advantage in sheer numbers. Under the control of the cultivators inside the "All Immortals Formation," they quickly rushed toward the core of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods." Although each bolt of lightning struck down and turned one Golden Celestial Soldier into nothingness, the threat to the Immortal Puppets was greatly reduced, allowing them to advance more than a hundred meters toward the location of "Black Emperor Cliff."
Inside "Black Emperor Cliff," Yu and Zhang were directing countless purple-robed cultivators who were busy either transporting large amounts of spirit stones to supply energy or instructing them to change the power of the formation.
When he saw countless Golden Celestial Soldiers suddenly enter the range of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods," dissipating its power, Zhang frowned, glanced at Yu beside him, and after a moment’s hesitation, instructed the nearby purple-robed cultivators, "Let those Golden Celestial Soldiers join forces with the Immortal Puppets and concentrate their strength for an attack; do not let it disperse."
The purple-robed cultivators nodded in agreement and followed Zhang’s instructions to make changes below. Suddenly, the attack from the outside of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" decreased significantly, while the attack power of the Immortal Puppets on the sides grew stronger. In an instant, more than ten Immortal Puppets were either struck down by lightning or shattered in the twisted space.
Just as Zhang was feeling pleased with his change in formation, the Golden Celestial Soldiers had already rushed to the side of the Immortal Puppets, and Zhang could no longer feel proud.
Although many Golden Celestial Soldiers had been eliminated by the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" on the outskirts, the number of Golden Celestial Soldiers joining the Immortal Puppets was still more than ten thousand.
As soon as the Golden Celestial Soldiers approached the Immortal Puppets, they suddenly exploded one after another, transforming into streams of golden light that surrounded the Immortal Puppets. Each Immortal Puppet had two or three dozen Golden Celestial Soldiers wrapped around it. In an instant, the pure and misty Immortal Puppets appeared to have an extra thick layer of golden armor.
After being surrounded by countless Golden Celestial Soldiers, the strength of the Immortal Puppets did not improve at all, but it seemed as if they had dozens of lives. Each time a lightning strike came down, the Immortal Puppets did not dodge or retreat; instead, a ray of golden light would vanish, and the Immortal Puppets would remain unharmed, continuing their rush toward "Black Emperor Cliff." Sometimes, space would twist around them, yet the Immortal Puppets’ speed did not slow down, and they would only lose a layer of golden light.
It turned out that the Golden Celestial Soldiers were not there to increase the strength of the Immortal Puppets but to give them dozens of lives, allowing them to withstand numerous fatal attacks.
With the protection of the Golden Celestial Soldiers, the attacks of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" could no longer threaten the Immortal Puppets for a while. The speed of the Immortal Puppets suddenly reached its peak, and in an instant, they advanced over ten miles, leaving only about fifty miles to "Black Emperor Cliff."
Seeing that the Righteous Alliance had already advanced halfway, Zhang could not help but smile wryly.
"’Heaven’ has given us three months to guard ‘Black Emperor Cliff.’ Besides the two months of calm we just had, we now have one more month. But with the Righteous Alliance’s ‘All Immortals Formation’ so powerful, how are we going to hold on for this remaining month?"
Zhang complained to "Yu," but "Yu" only coldly stared at the swirling chaos inside the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods," showing no sign of wanting to respond.
Although it felt futile to complain, Zhang did not dare to say much more due to "Yu’s" incredible strength. He gritted his teeth and shouted at the purple-clad cultivator beside him, "Change the formation!"
With Zhang’s command, the power of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods" instantly changed again.
In front of the Immortal Puppets, amidst flashes of lightning and booming thunder, heavy black mist suddenly surged up from nowhere. Neither the fierce winds nor the crackling lightning could harm the mist at all.
The black mist twisted and stretched, and in a moment, it transformed into countless fierce demons and monsters, howling as they rushed towards the Immortal Puppets.
Although these demons and monsters were not very strong, they were endless and fiercely fearless. Whenever the Immortal Puppets managed to defeat some in front of them, more demons and monsters would emerge from the swirling black mist.
Instantly, the Immortal Puppets’ forward march came to a halt once again.
"Transform the Immortal Sword to slay the demons!"
Seeing the situation change before him, Immortal Zizhen outside the formation gave another order.
As Qinglingzi once again issued Immortal Zizhen’s command, the cultivators inside the "All Immortals Formation" changed their hand signs, and countless Rainbow Spirit Swords appeared above and in front of them, whistling as they attacked the demons and monsters that were entangled with the Immortal Puppets in the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods."
The colorful spirit swords were formed from the Spirit Qi of the five elements of the universe, possessing immense power and unparalleled sharpness. With their support, the demons and monsters transformed from the black mist were quickly defeated.
"Change formation, transform into the Nine Demon Form!"
Zhang watched the battle in front of him with a serious expression, and directed again.
Just like that, the battle continued with each side pushing and pulling back and forth.
…
This was a clash between top formations, representing the wisdom of cultivators through the ages. While Zhang’s command was not as skillful and deep as Immortal Zizhen’s, he still held strong against the attack of the "All Immortals Formation" with the power of the "Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods."
Ten days had passed, and only over a hundred Immortal Puppets remained, with still about twenty to thirty miles left to "Black Emperor Cliff."
Immortal Zizhen sighed softly. In these ten days, considering the upcoming battle against the Shura Clan with the "All Immortals Formation," he had avoided using the more powerful formations. But now, with time running out, he could no longer hold back the Spirit Qi of the thousands of cultivators in the "All Immortals Formation."
Just as Immortal Zizhen raised his hand to give a new command, he was suddenly stopped by Zhang Xusheng beside him.
"There isn’t much time left," Zhang Xusheng said with a serious look. "Let’s save some strength for the All Immortals Formation to deal with the Shura Clan. I will break the ‘Great Formation of Killing Immortals and Gods,’ so we can save energy and time."
