Chapter 356 The Great Formation—Activate!!! (Page 12)
Baili Xin's face suddenly froze, and for the first time, an undisguised look of horror appeared on his usually pampered face.
His well-maintained fingers trembled uncontrollably, his knuckles turning a ghastly white from the excessive force.
Her once meticulously combed silver hair now had a few strands falling across her forehead, looking particularly disheveled under the glow of the Netherfire.
"This...this is impossible!" His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, trembling with a hint of exasperation.
Those calculating eyes were now wide open, their pupils contracting violently, reflecting the ghostly flames filling the sky.
His Adam's apple bobbed with difficulty, and a fine layer of cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
The meticulously prepared Zodiac constellations stirred restlessly behind him. The usually imposing and powerful artifact envoys were now on edge, and some even unconsciously took a half step back.
Bai Lixin's lips trembled, and his meticulously manicured beard quivered as well.
His proud composure crumbled at this moment, and his face, which always wore an expression of certainty, was now twisted into an unbelievable and ferocious expression.
"The Netherworld... the Netherworld Realm..." he murmured to himself, his voice tinged with a sense of disorientation, as if confirming this terrifying reality.
Suddenly, he abruptly turned to look at Zhang Yun in black, his eyes flashing with venomous resentment: "You...who exactly are you?!"
He practically shouted those words, his voice hoarse beyond recognition.
His meticulously planned chess game and his proud foundation of knowledge became a joke at this moment.
That face, which was always so composed and strategic, was now filled with shock, anger, and... a barely perceptible hint of fear.
Zhang Yun, dressed in black, curled a sinister smile at the corner of his lips, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
He slowly raised his right hand, his fingertips swirling with wisps of ghostly energy, drawing a chilling arc in the air.
"Who are you?" His voice suddenly deepened, as cold as the deepest ice in the underworld, each word carrying a chilling killing intent. "I am—the one who will kill you!"
The last four words exploded like thunder, and Zhang Yun, dressed in black, suddenly swung his hand down: "Attack!"
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color!
Thirty-six underworld generals simultaneously rose up, transforming into thirty-six streams of netherworld light.
Han Shaoyun, who was in the lead, swept his giant scythe horizontally, the blade tearing through the void and leaving a black crack a hundred feet long.
The white-boned spearman thrust his spear forward, and the tip of the spear emitted the screams of countless vengeful spirits.
The decapitation swordsman raised his massive blade high, and the dark runes engraved on the blade suddenly glowed with a blinding blood-red light...
"boom!"
Two terrifying forces collided violently, causing the entire space to tremble.
The twelve zodiac signs hastily prepared for battle. The white-haired old man wielding the ancient sword displayed unstoppable swordplay, and the black energy swirling around the sword transformed into a ferocious black dragon.
The alluring woman lightly touched her jade horn, and countless drops of blood condensed in the air into a deadly rain of arrows;
The one-eyed man's tattered cloak suddenly unfurled, and countless distorted human faces erupted forth...
The battlefield instantly descended into a frenzied melee:
The ghostly flames and the power of the stars collided in mid-air, unleashing a blinding surge of energy.
The white bone spear clashed with the rusty ancient sword, sending sparks flying everywhere;
The decapitating blade struck the bronze cauldron, producing a deafening roar;
A chain made of live snakes coiled around a jade folding fan, venom and spiritual energy fiercely clashing...
Zhang Yun, dressed in black, stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the battlefield, his black trench coat fluttering in the energy storm.
He watched this earth-shattering battle with a cold eye, a chilling smile always playing on his lips.
"That's more like it." He muttered to himself, a black chess piece appearing between his fingers without his noticing, flipping it nimbly. "If we're going to play, let's play to our hearts' content."
...
On the other side, Baili Pangpang and Baili Jing stood facing each other, the air between them distorted and deformed by the surging power.
Suddenly, Baili Pangpang roared, and his obese body burst forth with astonishing speed.
He reached out with his right hand and grabbed at the air, and a long sword made entirely of gilded metal suddenly appeared.
The sword radiated a dazzling golden light, and the runes flowing on the blade seemed to writhe like living things.
"One sword—transforms into three thousand!"
With that roar, the golden longsword trembled violently in his hand.
In an instant, the sword split into countless golden streams of light, each of which condensed in the air into a tangible flying sword.
In the blink of an eye, three thousand golden flying swords densely filled the sky, their tips all pointing at Baili Jing, their sharp sword energy tearing countless fine cracks into the ground.
"Shhhhh-"
A piercing sound of air being torn apart echoed across the battlefield as three thousand golden swords rained down like a storm.
Each flying sword trailed a long golden flame, weaving a web of death in the air.
Wherever the sword passed, even space itself was torn apart with tiny black cracks.
A mocking sneer appeared on Baili Jing's lips, and his right hand suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light.
A long spear, entirely gilded, appeared out of thin air. Ancient runes were engraved on its shaft, and its tip emitted a three-foot-long, chilling light. Its mere presence caused the surrounding space to distort slightly.
"Om-"
At the same time, a seemingly simple wooden scabbard slowly appeared behind him.
The surface of the scabbard is covered with mysterious wood grain patterns, with countless tiny swirls faintly visible flowing within the patterns.
This is precisely the Baili family's most treasured possession—
"【Devouring Yuan Sword Sheath】?" Baili Pangpang's pupils shrank suddenly, and all the color drained from his round face.
He recognized the two legendary forbidden items:
That golden spear was said to be able to pierce through everything in the world;
That seemingly ordinary wooden sword sheath is actually a terrifying entity capable of devouring all energy.
"My father really dotes on me." Baili Jing smiled coldly, his fingers lightly tracing the gun barrel.
The tip of the gun suddenly emitted a piercing buzz, as if yearning for a baptism of blood.
Baili Pangpang hurriedly made a hand seal, and three thousand sword energies instantly condensed.
However, the moment the sword energy touched the range of the [Devouring Yuan Sword Sheath], it vanished without a trace, as if it had disappeared into the sea. The wood grain on the surface of the sword sheath glowed with an eerie blue light, actually absorbing all the sword energy!
"Useless trash." Baili Jing sneered, and his golden spear suddenly transformed into a streak of light. "Breaking Army!" The spear tip tore through the air, and with a piercing shriek, it went straight for Baili Pangpang's heart!
Before the gun even arrived, the sharp gust of wind had already carved a deep trench in the ground.
The barrier that Baili Pangpang hastily erected was easily pierced like paper; his obese body had no time to dodge.
"laugh!"
Blood splashes!
The golden spear tip had pierced through Baili Pangpang's clothes, leaving a shocking bloodstain on his chest.
On the brink of life and death, despair finally surfaced in Baili Pangpang's eyes...
Just at this critical moment, a warm, jade-like light suddenly emanated from Baili Pangpang's arms.
The jade ruyi bestowed by the Primordial Celestial Venerable was now emitting a hazy glow, flickering like breath.
"This is......"
Before Baili Pangpang could react, the jade ruyi suddenly transformed into a stream of light and entered his brow.
In an instant, his whole body trembled violently, and his eyes burst forth with dazzling golden light.
An unprecedented realization welled up in my mind, as if a long-buried memory had been suddenly awakened.
"I see......"
He murmured softly, and his obese body suddenly exuded a chilling aura of pressure.
As he slowly raised his hand, a mysterious mark appeared in his palm.
"Formation—Activate!"
With a clear shout, the entire earth suddenly trembled violently.
A Tai Chi Bagua diagram with a diameter of 100 zhang (approximately 33 meters) suddenly unfolded beneath his feet, with the Yin and Yang energies flowing continuously. The eight trigrams, Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui, lit up with dazzling light in turn.
Baili Pangpang stood in mid-air, his robes fluttering even without wind.
Behind him, a colossal phantom of a treasure bottle slowly emerged, its surface engraved with countless ancient Dao patterns, its mouth emitting chaotic energy. At this moment, he bore a striking resemblance to the legendary Lingbao Tianzun!
大阵
"The universe is in chaos!"
With this decree, the entire formation suddenly reversed.
At that moment, heaven and earth seemed to turn upside down, and the yin and yang energies surged wildly.
The Zodiac members, who were engaged in a fierce battle with the Underworld Generals, suddenly froze, and the forbidden objects in their hands trembled violently uncontrollably.
"What's going on?!" The old man holding the ancient sword was horrified to discover that the ancient sword, which had been with him for hundreds of years, was about to slip from his grasp;
The alluring woman desperately tried to grab the jade horn, but could only watch helplessly as it flew into the air;
The one-eyed man's tattered cloak seemed to break free of its restraints as if it were alive...
"Whoosh whoosh—"
Nine streaks of light pierced the sky, like nine falling stars, hurtling towards the horizon with a sharp, piercing sound.
Each forbidden item exudes a unique and terrifying aura:
The ancient sword, entangled with vengeful spirits, emitted a mournful hum, and the black energy on its blade condensed into a hideous ghost face.
The drops of blood from the antelope's jade horn transformed into crimson runes in the air, emitting a pungent, bloody odor.
The dragon patterns on the bronze cauldron came to life, with nine dragon shadows swirling around the mouth of the cauldron;
The jade folding fan unfolded automatically, and the landscape painting on its surface began to materialize...
These top-tier forbidden items, capable of causing catastrophe, were now reverently surrounding Baili Pangpang like pilgrims.
They are arranged according to the nine palaces, creating a mysterious resonance between them and forming a perfect energy cycle.
The terrifying pressure caused the ground within a hundred miles to sink, and the air was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression.
"Click——"
What made Baili Jing most desperate was that his close-fitting Jade Armor suddenly made a crisp cracking sound.
This forbidden object disintegrated on its own into hundreds of cyan fragments, which flew toward the center of the great formation as if summoned.
"No! This is impossible!" Baili Jing roared hoarsely, but his voice was drowned out by the booming resonance of the forbidden object.
He reached out in vain to catch the flying armor plate, but only grasped at air.
Without the protection of the forbidden object, he was like a venomous snake whose teeth had been pulled out, collapsing onto the cracked ground in a sorry state, his face filled with terror and disbelief.
The nine forbidden items slowly rotated around Baili Pangpang, each rotation causing strange phenomena in the heavens and earth:
The ancient sword trembled slightly, and metal weapons within a radius of a hundred miles simultaneously emitted a submissive hum.
Blood dripped from the jade horn, and crimson blood rained down from the sky;
The giant cauldron trembled, and a booming sound, as if the dragon veins were boiling, echoed from the ground...
The radiance of the Tai Chi Bagua diagram grew ever brighter, and the Yin and Yang energies transformed into a tangible pillar of light that shot straight into the sky.
The entire battlefield was illuminated as if it were daytime, and even the sun paled in comparison.
Baili Pangpang hovered in the center of the formation, his obese body appearing incredibly majestic at this moment.
His eyes shone with a starlight-like brilliance, and every breath he took caused the heavens and earth to tremble.
That fat man who used to be bullied by everyone has now become the supreme ruler who holds life and death in his hands!
On the other side of the battlefield, Baili Jing collapsed to the ground, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
His pride and confidence were utterly shattered at that moment.
Baili Xin, standing on the high platform, was ashen-faced, and the dragon-headed cane in his hand clattered to the ground.
