“He is gone?”
When Lu Li heard from He Yue, he was taken aback. How could one person disappear for no reason at all? Yan Zhen must have either used a skill to leap to another space or went to hiding by leveraging some techniques or formations.
Lu Li asked He Yue carefully about information she collected recently, “Tell your subsidiary bodies to search that entire area. Do not miss one corner.” He said.
“Okay!”
He Yue mobilized her subsidiary bodies while Lu Li flew to that area in the Wicked Bead. Yan Zhen only cleared out subsidiary bodies within a radius of dozens of miles. Not long afterward, He Yue sent over another batch. Soon, they found something strange.
After a moment, He Yue said, “There must be an advanced formation of illusion which covers up another formation. My subsidiary bodies cannot go in.”
“Formations?”
Lu Li was surprised. Formations were quite intricate. If the formations were only from the Yan Family, they wouldn’t be so dreadful. What Lu Li was afraid of was that those formations were taught by Yan Tiangang.
“Tell Ke Mang to come to the Waters Region at once!”
Lu Li said after a moment. On the off chance that he could not crack the formation, he could ask Ke Mang to find a way.
Though it would take some time for Ke Mang to arrive and he might not be able to come soon enough, to be prepared would still be better.
The Wicked Bead charged forward. A moment later, He Yue reported again, “Yan Zhen is there. The space is trembling violently. He must be breaking down the spatial barrier inside the formation.”
“Okay, I see!”
Lu Li was a bit relieved that Yan Zhen didn’t disappear without reason. Now that Yan Zhen was there, Lu Li could just think of a way to take down the formations. Without such protection, Yan Zhen would not be able to go to Heaven Reverse Universe through the spatial barrier.
Millions of miles were not a long distance. In several hours, Lu Li arrived. He used psychic power to check at once. Upon looking closer, he noticed some slight movements that were the indication of formations.
While formations of illusion would not be difficult to break down, the major one inside would be tough to deal with. Since Yan Zhen had built one, he would not make his efforts futile. This formation inside would be intimidating.
“Immortal’s body, go!”
Lu Li let the immortal’s body out, and he went out as well, along with one hundred Stone Golems.
“Dig out this mountain!”
Lu Li instructed the Stone Golems. The one hundred Stone Golems dashed on and blasted at the mountain. Lu Li did not know how to use skills to break down a formation, so he resorted to the simplest way, taking it down by force.
A formation of illusion in itself did not have any defensive functions. As soon as the huge mountain was leveled to the ground, the formation stones would be destroyed and naturally, the formation of illusion would be taken down.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The Stone Golems had no skills or techniques. They used blunt force to blast at the mountain. Each Stone Golem was as powerful as Semi-God Realm warriors with great strength. A regular mountain would certainly shatter under such strength. In an instant, the mountain collapsed, causing the ground to cave in. The loud noise lingered on while dust rose up to the sky as if there were dragons of earth. The view was appalling.
“Buzzing~”
It didn’t take long. After the time for one incense stick to burn, the mountain glowed. The formation of illusion was gone. Some formation stones must have been destroyed, and they could no longer sustain the formation of illusion.
“Eh?”
Lu Li soon noticed the peak with psychic power. A black halo covered up that peak. It was pitch dark inside because Lu Li could not see anything. He only felt there were rounds of fluctuation coming from inside.
There seemed to be some faint glow and runes on that black halo. Needless to say, this formation was a strong one. Lu Li frowned. He felt the matter at hand was quite tricky.
“Stone Golems, attack the black halo!”
Lu Li commanded. He decided to let the Stone Golems try first. The one hundred Stone Golems dashed on and came at the black halo from all sides.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
Some muffled sounds came out. However, the black halo did not move much. The golden runes were emitting some faint golden light.
What Lu Li was worried about became a reality. This formation was not ornately from the Yan Family but sent down by Yan Tiangang. This was a formation from the Divinity!
“Immortal’s body, go!”
Lu Li gave out an order. The immortal’s body’s strength was more powerful than the combined efforts of the one hundred Stone Golems. If not even the immortal’s body could bring down the formation, then it would pose great trouble.
“Whoosh~”
The immortal’s body flapped his wings as he dashed forward. A Stone Golem was in his way. The immortal’s body didn’t know how to be flexible. He smashed into the Stone Golem and smashed it away.
“Swish—”
After the immortal’s body approached the halo, he swung his arms and then punched at the halo. His golden fists did not have any golden glow around them. Due to his fists fast speed, an extremely unpleasant noise came out.
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, the entire black halo lit up. Those faint golden runes were all shining brightly, moving about around the black halo. Those runes were emitting some strange energy, quite mystic and weird.
“It is a formation from the Divinity!”
Lu Li’s mind was heavy with worry since he noticed with psychic power that the halo was only trembling slightly. The immortal’s body was strong enough to kill a warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm with one punch but could not crack down a formation? This formation must be from Yan Tiangang.
“Go on!”
What else could Lu Li do when even the immortal’s body could not break the formation? Lu Li told the immortal’s body and the Stone Golems to continue.
All formations had to be sustained with energy. One hundred Stone Golems were equal to one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors. Together with an immortal’s body that was equipped with unimaginable abilities, they should be able to crack an average formation.
“Boom, boom, boom, boom~”
The immortal’s body and the Stone Golems kept going. Lu Li monitored with psychic power nervously to see if the black halo would break.
Unfortunately…
It had been six hours, but the black halo did not change at all, not to mention putting a crack on it. The Stone Golems’ moves only caused the golden runes to glow. When the immortal’s body attacked, the halo would tremble. Other than that, there wasn’t much.
“This is troublesome!”
As time passed, Lu Li’s anxiety grew. Inside the halo, Yan Zhen had been blasting at the space. In several days, the spatial tunnel would come into being. When Yan Zhen came to the Heaven Reverse Universe, that would be the beginning of doom.
Considering Yan Zhen’s state, once he reached the Heaven Reverse Universe, he would not negotiate anything. He would slaughter many people to vent his anger first.
“I should have relocated all the civilians of Heaven Reverse Universe to the Prison of Wood.”
Lu Li regretted. He had thought of this. However, it would be too troublesome. Many civilians never practiced martial art. They could not stand consecutive teleportation. In addition, the temperature in Inferno was high. Some seniors and children could not stand it there.
Also, the immortal’s body could slaughter warriors at the peak of the Semi-God Realm as if they were livestock. That was why Lu Li gave up on that plan.
Ke Mang could not come anytime soon. The Map of Fundamental Principle could not be merged within days. The immortal’s body could not grow his strength. For the moment, Lu Li did not know what to do.
“Cultivate!”
After much deliberation, Lu Li forced himself to calm down. He didn’t have to control the immortal’s body and the Stone Golems. They would keep going. Lu Li didn’t have to stay and supervise. He Yue could take care of that.
What if within a few days, he could merge the Map of Fundamental Principles and become an immortal? Maybe all his problems would be solved!
