Chapter 317 – Four Elephant Formation
Night had just descended, and a group of uninvited guests flew over the darkened imperial city, none other than Han Li and the other nine Yellow Maple Valley cultivators.
When the imperial weapon arrived above the dark city walls, the leader, Liu Jing, glanced at this so-called forbidden land, and after a slight hesitation in his heart, he still waved his hand with great bravado.
”Go!” His voice was resolute, without a hint of hesitation, and then he took the lead and rushed over.
Seeing this, the others naturally swarmed past with their tails trailing behind, the scruples of that Seven Schools ban having long since been thrown to the back of their minds.
Han Li didn’t rush ahead, but rather intentionally lagged behind a bit, flying at the tail end of the crowd. This is not that Han Li has any other ideas, but he is silently sensing last night’s arrangement of the “inverted five elements formation”.
When he flew to a place several miles away from the palace, the corner of Han Li’s mouth slightly revealed a mysterious smile.
Very good! The Grand Formation still existed intact, and the aura markers he had secretly arranged had not been damaged in the slightest, which made Han Li’s heart unusually happy.
A few moments later, the nine of them were floating in the sky above the palace, looking downward at everything within the palace grounds.
”Listen up, everyone! This time, the operation will be divided into two paths as we had planned beforehand. One way is to run to the chambers of the current Emperor of Yue, to rescue him from the hands of the Black Fiend Sect, only in this way can we prevent the other side from jumping over the wall in a hurry and using the Emperor of Yue to blackmail us. The other way is to go directly to the cold palace where the Black Fiend Sect master stays, and concentrate the manpower to kill the four big blood guards first. Then the two paths will gather in one place and finally deal with the Black Fiend Sect’s Lord who is still in seclusion.” Liu Jing re-stated tonight’s plan with a solemn expression, causing the others to nod their heads in succession as they listened.
The manpower had long been allocated, Chen Qiaoqian and Zhong Weiniang, two female cultivators, went to rescue the Emperor of Yue. Liu Jing, on the other hand, and the rest of the people, swooped straight towards the cold palace guarded by those four blood guards, with Han Li among them.
”Seventh Senior Sister and Senior Sister Chen, you two be more careful!” Before parting ways, Liu Jing purposely instructed.
After the two women responded solemnly, they flew down diagonally.
Soon after, they silently disappeared into the darkness.
”In a while, when you all meet the other cultivators. There is no need to keep your hands. Since the cultivators who can casually walk around this palace must be from the Black Fiend Sect. Let’s make our move as well! We can create some opportunities for the two senior sisters.” After Liu Jing turned around and spoke to the crowd in a chilling voice, he immediately sent his Imperial Vehicle straight to the Cold Palace that Han Li had mentioned.
Han Li and the others, too, followed.
A few moments later, the seven of them descended from the sky in a furious manner, and were immediately spotted by the Black Fiend Sect disciples guarding the periphery of the Cold Palace.
Immediately after several shrill whistles, all sorts of spells and magic weapons were sent out from the hidden places near the Cold Palace, and struck head-on at the several people.
”The light of a grain of rice, how dare you compete with the white moon!”
Liu Jing raised his hand, and a glittering silk handkerchief came out, instantly transforming into a huge barrier in front of him, even protecting Han Li and the others behind him. He was really confident in the power of this magic weapon.
Sure enough, as soon as the Silkworm Palm unfolded, those spells and spells hit it at the same time, but after emitting a dazzling white light, the Silkworm Palm was not only not damaged in the slightest. Instead, it bounced some of the spells directly back, sending some of the Black Fiend followers below into a frenzy.
”Senior brother Liu, good tactics!” Song Meng, who was charging down side by side with Liu Jing, saw this. He gave a loud praise. Afterward, he also unceremoniously threw out the object in his hand.
A huge blue sword appeared out of nowhere in the night sky, and it was Song Meng’s favorite top-ranked magic weapon, the “Blue Silk Sword”.
”Go!” Song Meng’s two hands strangled, and the huge blue sword let out a long sound. It even rotated on its own like a wheel, causing the Black Fiend Sect disciples below, who were horrified by the huge shape of the sword, to freeze.
Song Meng saw this, face showed a trace of a caricatured smile, stretched out two fingers, rushed to that turned into a huge CD-ROM “Blue Silk Sword” point.
At that moment, the disc on the blue aura, a contraction of a rise, suddenly shot out countless thin blue silk, at once will be below the range of tens of feet all enveloped in its inside.
Seeing this scene, the following Black Fiend Sect disciples were shocked out of their minds, all kinds of protective spells and magic weapons have shot out, trying to resist this overwhelming attack.
A series of miserable screams rang out.
Under the countless blue threads of piercing shots, most of the Black Fiend Sect disciples still did not defend themselves, either dying miserably and being shot into a hornet’s nest, or although they protected their vitals other places were penetrated and lost their fighting ability on the spot.
”A good move, ‘Ten Thousand Threads Under Heaven’! Senior Brother Song has heard a lot about this move, and it really is different.” Seeing the power of this move, one of Chen Qiaoqian’s senior brothers couldn’t help but genuinely praise it, causing Song Meng to have a slightly self-satisfied look on his face.
At this time, a few people landed in front of the Cold Palace’s main door with ease. Those Black Fiend Sect disciples who were lucky enough not to die, which still dared to strike out at will, had long since become disoriented.
”Activate the Four Fiends Formation and trap them inside.” Just as the remaining Black Fiend Cultists were facing Liu Jing and the others in fear, a strangely cold and incomparable voice came from the Cold Palace.
Then a white silhouette emitting a hazy white cold aura appeared at the gate in the blink of an eye, and it was the “Ice Demon” who happened to be on duty again.
Just now he was the one who ordered through gritted teeth, and at this time he was looking at the Yellow Maple Valley’s group of cultivators with a mixture of shock and anger.
”Hmph! Demon evil take life!”
As soon as Liu Jing heard this, and then looked at this person’s cultivation, he immediately knew that this was one of the Four Great Blood Servants. Immediately, under a cold snort, two silver lights sprang out from his body, heading straight for the other person’s head to behead him.
Other people see this, also put all kinds of magic weapon a light, want to immediately joint forces will this just show up the Black Fiend Sect experts killed. They weren’t fighting with each other, so naturally they wouldn’t talk about fighting alone.
Han Li similarly had six golden lights shoot out from his storage bag. To be able to kill this Blood Servant in this way, Han Li was of course very happy!
But right at this moment, the scene in front of Han Li and the others suddenly blurred for a moment, followed by a heavenly rotation.
After a few people were startled, they even appeared in a snowy, icy place in the blink of an eye. Surrounded by a blanket of white, cold wind, large snowflakes fluttering in the sky, opposite which there is still the shadow of the white-clothed man?
Although Liu Jing and the others were surprised, they knew that they had fallen into the Four Elephant Formation. Therefore, after panicking for a while, they were calm and relaxed. After all, there were so many fellow Foundation Establishment Stage disciples here, what was so scary about a small formation.
”Hehehe! You and the others don’t have a lot of guts, how dare you harm the disciples of this Sect! You guys will just stay in this sect’s protective formation for a while.” That chilly voice drifted as if it was coming from all directions at once, the sound was truly astonishing.
”Four Elephant Formation?”
”Do any of you know this formation? We’d better break the formation and get out quickly, or else it’ll be spicy if we let their four great Blood Servants gather together.” Liu Jing ignored that Ice Demon’s provoking words, instead, he asked the others with a normal expression.
As soon as these words were uttered, the others looked at each other, and no one actually opened their mouths to speak for a moment.
”I do understand some of the way of formations, and I have heard of this Four Elephant Formation, but I have not delved into the specific method of breaking the formation. This formation is considered to be one of the more aloof ones in formations, and the general public will not study this formation.” That senior sister of Chen Qiaoqian, seeing the coldness of the crowd, said hesitantly.
”This is a bit troublesome, do we really have to use brute force to break the formation?” Liu Jing frowned a bit and muttered somewhat reluctantly.
Knowing that by virtue of brute force to forcefully break the formation, of course the method is simple and direct, but not only is it time-consuming, but it will also consume a lot of mana, which is naturally extremely unfavorable to the battle after the formation is broken. I’m afraid that this is also the enemy, one of the intentions of this array!
Other people heard, also looked at each other, some worried.
At this moment, a curious voice came: “Huh! Senior Han, what are you doing?”
Song Meng did not know anything about formations, but instead did not need to think about breaking formations, and looking around, he even caught a glimpse of Han Li’s movements. Han Li was touching out a crystal ball artifact, placing it in front of his eyes, gazing at something through it in a certain direction.
This peculiar demeanor made Song Meng greatly curious and asked without thinking.
This sentence caused Liu Jing and the other people to also notice Han Li’s side, and they all looked at Han Li with some confusion.
Han Li put the crystal ball down with a normal expression before turning his head to Liu Jing and saying, “I may have found a break in the formation!”
”What? Found a break!”
Han Li’s words caused the faces of those watching him to show surprise, and Liu Jing looked even more overjoyed.
