Chapter 864 Reenacting the Yuan Chen Killing Formation

At that moment, the instant Yue Hanzhang finished speaking.

In response to him was Su Yuan's even more intense sneer.

He didn't say another word, but his expression alone seemed to convey his feelings:

The difference between the Nine Heavens of Exterior Scenery is greater than the difference between humans and apes!

Is there any comparability between you, Yue Hanzhang, and other outer realm Nine Heavens Venerable Kings?

You possess the ability to defy the higher realms; that is because you have proven through numerous bloody battles that even if you rely solely on your combat strength, you can reach a position and realm no different from the Inner Realm Dao Lords.

But this doesn't mean that there are other Venerable Kings in the Nine Heavens of the Outer Realm who can do something similar to you.

Even those so-called companions who have accompanied Yue Hanzhang on his journey of growth.

Even those who had already demonstrated the potential to defy the higher realms in the past, possessing equally monstrous talents and abilities.

However, there are differences in talent, and there are also differences in how one can overcome obstacles and reach higher realms!

Yue Hanzhang's ability to defy the upper realm is sufficient to allow him to rely on his profound Daoist knowledge and disregard the constraints imposed by the true cultivation realm.

Even today, there are obstacles and barriers blocking our way.

If it weren't for these constraints, Su Yuan would believe that even when facing someone at the mid-stage or late-stage of the Inner Realm, Yue Hanzhang, relying on his offensive advantages, would have the confidence to decide life and death in an instant.

If we cannot kill Yue Hanzhang in the blink of an eye, we may actually be threatened with his deadly move!

This is a true example of "conquering the upper realms" through attack and destruction.

As for the merchants, they were those from the Beihai Tiandu lineage who had once only appeared in the corner of Su Yuan's eye.

They were the last embers of the once-prosperous Beihai Tiandu lineage, ruthlessly eliminated by blood and fire during the process of their annihilation.

It is true that he possesses a higher level of talent and depth than ordinary geniuses.

However, their ability to defy higher realms is merely a superficial understanding. Under the strict constraints of the Daoist realm, even a Venerable King of the Outer Realm Ninth Heaven can only contend with someone who has just entered the Inner Realm First Heaven.

Want to kill these Great Sages who have lived in this world for a long time, who have refined 30% of the True Spirit World with their own demonic veins, and who are comparable to the Dao Lords of the Third Heaven of the Inner Realm?

There are no doors!

The difference between them is immeasurable!
Su Yuan grinned maliciously but remained silent.

However, Yue Hanzhang still spoke slowly and leisurely, as if he was completely unaware of how "unreasonable" his words were.

"You think this is impossible?"

"But how many similar impossible things has Yue done on his path to rise to power?"

"arrogant!"

"You may have forgotten, but these people are not ordinary Venerable Kings of the Ninth Heaven of the Outer Realm. I, Yue, am a cultivator of the same lineage as them from the Northern Sea Heavenly Capital. They are my fellow cultivators on the path of cultivation!"

"This whole scheme was orchestrated by me!"

"They were arranged by me!"

"I was the one who connected every thread of this whole thing!"

"Do you really not understand this?"

"The so-called all-out effort is nothing but empty talk."

"This contempt is, in essence, your contempt for Yue!"

Do you think I, Yue, am just a brute with only fighting prowess?

"This power to overthrow the upper realm is not something I obtained through cultivation level, but rather through my profound understanding and talent in Daoist arts!"

"For a long time, you've only been focused on Yue's achievements."

"But you've overlooked one thing."

"What a predicament I faced with Senior Lin in the past."

"If it weren't for Yue's preemptive strike, I would have almost perished under the Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Formation."

"A killing move that combined the power of time and Sumeru in an instant; even Senior Lin couldn't save me then!"

"You are blinded by a leaf, unable to see the mountain."

"But Yue did not overlook these things."

"I have mastered that supreme killing formation!"

"By refining all the myriad methods with my mind, I can even grasp the true essence of this array more than its creator!"

"In fact, I've come to realize something even better here!"

When I heard Yue Hanzhang mention this place.

Su Yuan's sinister smile vanished, and his expression changed slightly.

but.

In Yue Hanzhang's unhurried few words.

behind him.

Suddenly, elemental lights rose and fell in succession.

Following Shang Shi, various cultivators from the Beihai Tiandu lineage successively crossed over to arrive.

Jiang Lingxiu, Huang Zhishu, Sang Mingqiong, Katja, Ye Yishui, Qin Linhui, Wei Ruyu, Shi Fangda, Zong Daoquan, Shen Henian, Zeng Yunhe!

In an instant, the twelve people lined up behind Yue Hanzhang, each displaying their own nine layers of divine brilliance, and instantly donning dragon-patterned gauze robes.

Within the radiant light of their Taoist teachings, the same seal patterns can be fully interpreted and presented.

These seal patterns seem to naturally contain the power of the supreme Tao of Mount Sumeru and the supreme Tao of time.

Su Yuan saw it clearly.

This is not the original Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Array, which he used to watch from afar as Yue Hanzhang engaged in this bloody battle, and the details of the talisman array presented.

While capturing the essence of the original talisman array, Yue Hanzhang also seemed to have fused the achievements of the Supreme Sumeru Dao and the Supreme Time Dao into the talisman array.

This not only greatly strengthens the origin of the rune array, but also ensures that each reforged rune itself contains part of the rune array's power.

It is precisely this part of the power of the runes that is manifested in the runes.

So that the moment Su Yuan saw all of this clearly, all the changes were synchronized and instantly connected among all the cultivators of the Beihai Tiandu lineage!

It was as if, at the moment when time stood still, the flow of time seemed to extend to its limit on them.

They fell into the gaze of Su Yuan and the various Great Sages of the Inner Realm.

Their figures were like silhouettes.

Just a moment ago they were lined up in a row, their seal patterns intertwining amidst the rising steam and divine radiance.

But the next moment.

They thus formed a complete loop.

The brand-new Twelve Yuan Chen Grand Array was laid out, and the Ninefold Divine Radiance Curtain fell onto the Dragon Image Gauze Robe, instantly expanding to form twelve Dragon Image Furnaces that resembled miniature versions of the Dao Lord's Domain!
It was as if the entire process of casting and executing the rune array had been compressed into that fleeting instant.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the one in control of this Yuan Chen Talisman Array was not Master Shang, but Master Fangda.

He is a true master of the art of talisman arrays.

The long years of hardship and dormancy in the mortal world of yesteryear allowed my master to pour almost ninety-nine percent of his energy into the refinement and development of the Dao of Talismans and Arrays. Now, at this crucial moment...

In such a pivotal battle that could determine the fate of the entire extraordinary world.

All the effort he had poured into this path in the past, day and night, had transformed into the power that enabled Senior Shi Fangda to seize the day and night and shake the universe when things were at their most critical!
A century or so of time has brought him to this moment of glory!
Almost at the same time.

Yue Hanzhang's external avatar of [Nine Palaces Change of Appearance] also appeared behind him, standing near the Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Array.

then.

This external avatar then moved remotely towards the direction of the Great Sages of the Inner Realm.

In an instant.

In this storm vacuum zone where the power of Sumeru had gone berserk, a Sumeru passage that was equally tough and stable suddenly opened up between the Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Array set up by the cultivators and the Great Sage of Worms!
boom--

The moment the power of Sumeru opened up a passage amidst the resounding boom, the Great Sage of Worms frantically twisted its hideous and terrifying body.

As the pieces of keratin rubbed and twisted, large amounts of Sumeru gel-like mucus, brimming with demonic radiance, sprayed out from the folds of its body, like sharp blades and arrows traversing space.

It seems that the Sumeru Passage is to be "covered up" before it is fully unfolded.

but.

The instant the blades and arrows clashed was incredibly fast.

However, the closer one gets to the Sumeru Passage itself, the slower the speed becomes.

At the end.

Even though they were only a hair's breadth away from touching the Sumeru Passage itself, all the blades and arrows formed from the Sumeru gel were completely suspended there.

The invisible power that extended the limit of time by a single breath had, in an instant, dissipated at the other end through the opening of the Sumeru Passage.

And in the next moment, like an invisible and formless torrent, it instantly pierced through all things in the world, and all resistance from energy surged and poured out in an irresistible manner.

then.

It wasn't just the gels that were "frozen in time".

Also "frozen" in that instant was the frantically writhing body of the Great Worm.

even.

Even the heartbeat that it bursts forth in the moment of terror can no longer be clearly heard due to the extreme extension of time.

Wherever the time power of all these formless and shapeless Yuan Chen runes swept through, it seemed as if it had become isolated from the world, following the runes. The completely different flow of time made it seem as if another world had formed inside.

It happened right before our eyes.

But this moment.

Su Yuan felt as if everything was a bloody battle far away, condensed to its extreme, and projected onto this place as silhouettes.

The power of time has even exceeded the limits of his gaze.

Even when Su Yuan activated his pupil technique, he could only extend it to its limit in that fleeting moment, and then compress it to its limit externally.

The moment they saw them, the entire Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Formation passed through the Sumeru Passage opened by Yue Hanzhang.

Then, in the next instant, time turned, and the Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Array no longer used Senior Shi Fangda as its spearhead; he still perfectly controlled the array.

But at this moment, it was Master Shang who truly became the spearhead, striking at the Great Sage of Worms!

The Taiyin Dragon stirred within that supreme furnace, seemingly brewing for an unknown period of time, reaching an unparalleled height, and superimposed with the surging power of the Taiyin Purgatory's killing might reflected remotely from the Dao Scene World.

The ghostly soldiers of Fengdu rode on dragons!

At this moment, the supreme Daoist aura of the Taiyin Emperor surged with Yin and Yang, and illusion and reality!
Yue Hanzhang's past glory in slaying Inner Realm Dao Lords in the desolate area by the Star Sea seemed to be perfectly replicated in Shang Shi at this moment.

Iron horses and icy rivers come to me in my dreams!
In an instant.

In the instant that countless Yin soldiers from Fengdu rose into the air, stepping on the image of the Taiyin Dragon.

The interplay of reality and illusion led them onto a treacherous path to the true spirit world of the Great Worm Sage.

And through the development of this passage.

Through the aura of the merchant's form, spirit, and Daoist foundation at this moment, he also connected with all the cultivators along the Yuan Chen Talisman Array.

Instantaneous time.

The Taiyin Moonfire, originating from Jiang Lingxiu and Wei Ruyu and almost from the same source, overlapped and enhanced each other, roared out.

The gusts of yin wind stirred up by Ghost Lord Shen Henian and the blazing lightning that swept down by Qin Linhui at this moment were perfectly integrated into the storm of life and death stirred up by Zeng Yunhe, and were condensed by Senior Zong Daoquan's martial will to penetrate all things with a mighty sound.

There's also the chaotic ice and fire duality of Katya and Ye Yishui.

Huang Zhishu turned fire into ice, while Sang Mingqiong stepped on a furnace of thunder, the two forming a turret of boundless magical power.

And while Master Fangda was multitasking, he illuminated all the offensive and killing techniques he had been developing over the past hundred years, like raindrops of light, as if they were part of a complete dragon map, and then struck them down from the sky.

The cultivators either cooperated with each other or each demonstrated the wonders of attack and destruction based on their own Daoist techniques.

All their fierce and imposing aura, which belonged to their defying the higher realms, was instantly channeled into the true spirit world of the Worm Great Sage through the illusory passage opened by the merchant.

It is neither one nor twelve.

The power of time extends the limits of a single moment at this instant.

Everyone was exhausting all their resources, unleashing one powerful move after another, each capable of defeating those in the upper realms and shaking the life and death of beings who had just entered the inner realm!
There were over a hundred, or even over a thousand!
Finally, in that instant of extreme extension, after everyone had exerted their utmost effort.

The power of time, which had been stretched to its limit, was once again constricted into a single instant.

The instant Su Yuan saw the Merchant Master's figure standing before him, the enormous and ferocious demonic body of the Worm Great Sage, with its continuous crackling sounds, resounded in Su Yuan's ears.

this moment.

Even the death of the Great Worm was stretched to its limit by the power of time, and then compressed into a single moment by others' observation, presented in the form of a chaotic silhouette.

Even with the combined strength of twelve peak-level Venerable Kings of the Outer Realm, capable of defying the Upper Realm, and aided by such an unparalleled killing formation, they could only accomplish what Yue Hanzhang had once done alone in the desolate Star Sea.

But that's enough!

Life and death can be decided in an instant.

The process and methods are not important; achieving this result is enough to pose a threat!

and.

With the death of the Great Worm.

Its true spirit world's origin, along with the collapse of its demonic bloodline, released an unprecedentedly surging power of Sumeru.

These massive amounts of Sumeru power, resembling strands of gel, were frantically devoured by Senior Shi Fangda, who controlled the Yuan Chen Killing Array.

Such surging Sumeru power entered the rotating talisman array. In an instant, the Sumeru power, which opened almost instantly, wrapped up the power of the Yuan Chen talisman array and, like a net, swept towards the inner realm Great Saints.

at the same time.

Yue Hanzhang took a step forward.

He blocked the restless figure in Su Yuan's place.

Behind Yue Hanzhang, his six external avatars all appeared.

"Your opponent is me!"
