People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 425 Lantern Raid, Jinling Suffers a Tragedy!
Outside Lintong Pass.

The disappearance of the strange phenomenon did not prevent the sage from traveling.

In the blink of an eye, the Primordial Celestial Venerable, the Supreme Pure Sage, the Guide Daoist, and the Zhunti Daoist arrived at Lintong Pass and appeared outside the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Tongtian Jiaozhu, who sat cross-legged at the center of the formation, his expression aloof, surrounded by raging sword energy. He pursed his lips, seemingly wanting to say something.
But after a long time, he still didn't say anything. He just silently got up, walked out of the Nine Dragons Incense Carriage, entered the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, crossed the outer area, and came to the center of the formation.

"Ugh!"

The Sage Taiqing sighed, patted the green ox's head, and then entered the center of the great formation.

The Guide and the Zhunti exchanged a glance, their faces unchanged, but their smiles deepened.

In this light, regardless of whether the Three Pure Ones have broken ties, it seems that Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu have completely fallen out.

In addition, there was the promise made by the Primordial Celestial Venerable that if the Jie Sect could be severely weakened, the West would flourish in the future and no one could stop it!

Of the three thousand travelers in this mortal world, all should enter my Western Paradise!
Jieyin and Zhunti glanced at the group of Jiejiao immortals in the formation, suppressed their impulses, and followed behind Taiqing Saint and Yuanshi Tianzun into the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

These three thousand travelers in the mortal world will certainly need to be saved, but not now.

If they do that now, wouldn't that force the Three Pure Ones to reunite? How could they be so foolish?
With the arrival of the sage, the Myriad Immortals Formation was fully activated, evolving into numerous mysterious changes.

Taiji gives rise to Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang give rise to the Three Powers, and the Three Powers give rise to the Four Symbols...

There are formations within formations, each linked to the next, capable of existing independently or complementing each other.

Although not completely integrated, the myriad arrays that make up the Myriad Immortals Array are interconnected to varying degrees, and their power is far greater than that of a single array.
With the support of these formations and the presence of thousands of disciples of the Jie Sect, the power of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was far greater than rumored.

It seems to possess the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, the ability to overturn the universe, the full extent of creation, and the profound mysteries of the sun and moon.

With the power of the great formation, the strength of the myriad immortals of the Jie Sect increased greatly, and the Taiyi Golden Immortals gained the strength to contend with the Daluo Golden Immortals.

Meanwhile, the late-stage Grand Luo Immortals of the Jie Sect, such as Jinling Shengmu, Duobao Daoren, and Zhao Gongming, possessed the combat power of the peak Grand Luo level. With the help of the formations they presided over, their strength could be further enhanced.

"This Grand Array of Ten Thousand Immortals is truly profound..."

As Yuanshi Tianzun sensed the power of the great formation, his brows furrowed slightly.

Even after receiving the invitation from the Tongtian Sect Leader, he went to the Eight Trigrams Palace and obtained a pot of elixirs to help the immortals of the Chan Sect recover to a better state.
They also have three swords at their disposal: the Immortal Trapping Sword, the Immortal Slaying Sword, and the Immortal Severing Sword. However, in this Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals, the immortals of the Chan Sect are not necessarily able to gain the upper hand.

"Ugh!"

Yuanshi Tianzun sighed, feeling helpless and bewildered, unable to understand why Tongtian Jiaozhu's reaction was so strong.

He admitted that he had acted dishonestly in the battle of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, but based on his understanding of the Tongtian Sect Leader, he shouldn't care too much about the outcome.

But the result was far beyond his expectations. After the battle of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, the Tongtian Sect Leader left without saying a word.

Now, they've set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation again to challenge us, and it's even the Sage and his disciples fighting together—this is truly abnormal.

"Why is this happening...?"

Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't understand it, but he also understood that now, the only way to reduce the losses of the Chan and Jie sects was to defeat Tongtian Jiaozhu as soon as possible.

Fortunately, after being perfected and incorporating countless array formations, the Myriad Immortals Array, while still more powerful than the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array,
However, there is no spiritual object of the same rank as the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and no one that is compatible with the great formation to serve as the core of the formation.

The Tongtian Sect Leader's strength within the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was at least slightly greater than during the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and he was definitely no match for the four Sages.

After a brief exchange, the Tongtian Sect Leader found himself at a disadvantage.

at the same time.

The disciples of the Xuanmen sect within the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation present a completely different scene.

Among the thousands of immortals of the Jie Sect, those with the cultivation level of Daluo were few and far between, and even Taiyi Golden Immortals were rare; the majority were Golden Immortals.
As for those below the Golden Immortal level, they died in the Investiture of the Gods wars of recent years, and their primordial spirits were listed on the Investiture of the Gods list.

Compared to the immortals of the Chan Sect, the immortals of the Jie Sect have an absolute numerical advantage.

However, the standards for accepting disciples by the Primordial Celestial Venerable are different. Even those who are just wandering cultivators listening to the Dao in Kunlun Mountain have extraordinary abilities.

Most of the Jie Sect immortals, at the same level, could not be a match for the Chan Sect immortals, and they were even inferior to the rogue cultivators of Kunlun Mountain.

Even with the support of the formation, the Jie Sect immortals still need to outnumber the Chan Sect immortals to be evenly matched.

But this is only the case in most cases, not all of them.

Take Duobao Daoren, for example.

The Taoist Master Duobao, with his golden pagoda atop his head, drew his sword and confronted Guangchengzi, shouting angrily:
"The karma of the Fire Spirit shall be settled here today!"

With his profound Taoist cultivation and the support of the great formation, Daoist Duobao's strength was further enhanced. Even though Guang Chengzi possessed the supreme killing treasure, the Heaven-Turning Seal, he was at a disadvantage for a time.

If it weren't for the protection of the Eight Trigrams Purple Slow Immortal Robe, he would probably be seriously injured by now.

Golden Spirit Mother rode the Seven Fragrance Chariot, with countless star-like phantoms above her head and thunder rumbling around her. Holding the Flying Golden Sword in one hand and the Dragon-Tiger Jade Ruyi in the other, she let out a loud shout and flew towards Yun Zhongzi.

"Yun Zhongzi, when you killed my disciple Wen Zhong, did you ever imagine that you would face this calamity today?!"

"Hmph!" Yun Zhongzi snorted coldly, holding a wooden sword and carrying a water and fire flower basket on his elbow, standing tall and fearless.

"If Jin Guang can kill my disciple, then I cannot touch your disciple? That's absurd."

However, with the support of the great formation, the cultivation level of the Golden Spirit Mother also increased significantly. Although Yun Zhongzi's cultivation level was not bad, he was still no match for the Golden Spirit Mother and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

Upon seeing this, Daoist Ran Deng, Immortal Antarctic, and others immediately offered their assistance to Guang Chengzi and Yun Zhongzi.

But at that moment, the waters of the Yellow River suddenly appeared from the sky, surging and stretching for hundreds of millions of miles, blocking the way for the immortals.

The figures of Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao appeared above the Yellow River, looking down at the crowd in front of them.

Yunxiao, dressed in a pure white fairy dress and holding the Hunyuan Golden Bucket, coldly said:
"Fellow Daoists, please enter the battle!"

"The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation?!"

Looking at the surging Yellow River before them, all the immortals of the Chan Sect wore solemn expressions, their hearts filled with alarm, and they dared not be careless in the slightest.

Although the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is not as famous as the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation or the Great Immortal Formation, it is still a well-known formation in the prehistoric world. In terms of both power and reputation, it is greater than the Ten Absolute Formations.

They had personally experienced the Ten Deadly Formations and knew that its power was even greater than the rumors suggested.

Is the Yellow River Nine-Bend Formation also like this?
The legendary power of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is already formidable; if its power is even stronger than the rumors suggest...
Furthermore, since the Nine-Bend Yellow River has become part of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and is connected to many other formations within it, the power of this formation will undoubtedly be enhanced, and its level of danger is self-evident.

After a moment of silence, Daoist Ran Deng, as the vice leader of the Chan Sect, raised his eyes and glanced into the distance. His eyes flickered, and he turned to look at the group of Chan Sect disciples.

"Nanji, Qingxu, Chijingzi, Huanglong, and Lingbao, the five of you go into the formation to hold them off. The rest of you, come with me to assist Yunzhongzi and Guangchengzi."

The key to this battle does not lie with us; it is the battle for sainthood among your masters. It would be best if we could kill the immortals of the Jie Sect.
If that's not possible, the primary task should be to safeguard the interests of the Chan Sect. After all, Daoist Ran Deng was the vice leader of the Chan Sect, and the immortals of the Chan Sect had to listen to his words to some extent.

Moreover, there was nothing wrong with the arrangement of lighting the lamps, at least in their view.

"it is good!"

The Old Man of the South Pole immediately set an example, nodding and looking up at the azure sky above the Yellow River, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.

He still harbored resentment about what he had experienced in Heaven.

He won't be able to run into Yang Xuan. If he misses this opportunity, he probably won't have another chance to meet Bi Xiao.

No matter what, he had to teach Bixiao a lesson to vent his anger.

Even if the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is powerful, with the five of them working together, and Chi Jingzi still wielding the Immortal-Trapping Sword,

Even if they can't defeat the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, surely they can at least target Bixiao?

To put it another way, even if you really can't win, getting away isn't a problem. Entering the fray to fight the enemy may seem dangerous, but in reality, it's not that bad.

Having made his decision, the Antarctic Immortal entered the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, followed closely by Chi Jingzi, Yu Ding Zhenren, and others.

Ran Deng, carrying the coffin lamp, led the other immortals of the Chan Sect around the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation to prepare to support Guang Chengzi and the others.

Seeing Randeng and the others' actions, Bixiao wanted to change the formation to drag them all into the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation.

But remembering Yang Xuan's instructions, she glared angrily at Randeng and the others, then joined Yunxiao and Qiongxiao in setting up the formation to deal with the Antarctic Immortal and his group within it.
They gave special care, especially to the Old Man of the South Pole.

Just like the Old Man of the South Pole wanted to vent his resentment towards Yang Xuan on Bixiao's head,
Bixiao also disliked Yang Xuan because of the Antarctic Immortal's malice towards him. Now that she had this opportunity to make a move, how could she possibly miss it?

The title of "mischievous witch" is no joke; Bixiao has never been a magnanimous person.

If it weren't for Yang Xuan keeping an eye on them during their years in Heaven and the Underworld, who knows what trouble they might have caused? The Antarctic Immortal and the Taiyi True Man could only dream of staying peacefully in Heaven for so many years!

the other side.

After the Taoist Ran Deng and the others bypassed the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, Cihang and Puxian rushed towards Yun Zhongzi to confront the Golden Spirit Mother.

With the help of Julusun and Manjushri, Guangchengzi faced off against Duobao Daoren.

Dao Xing Tianzun, wielding the Immortal-Slaying Sword, led several surviving Kunlun Mountain Great Luo Immortals to block the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother.

Jade Cauldron Immortal, wielding the Immortal-Trapping Sword, along with several Kunlun Mountain Grandmasters, faced off against the Holy Mother of Wudang.

As for the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect, as well as the rogue cultivators of Kunlun Mountain in the Golden Immortal Realm and Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, they were scattered throughout the formation to deal with the remaining Jie Sect immortals.

Meanwhile, Daoist Ran Deng used the Qiankun Ruler to conceal his form and shield himself from the heavenly secrets, hiding in the shadows and waiting for the right moment to strike.

On the battlefield between the Golden Spirit Mother and the Cloud Prince.

Cihang and Puxian, two Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, rode on the backs of a golden-haired lion and a white jade elephant, respectively, their divine forms manifesting on their bodies.
Some had faces as blue as indigo, while others had huge mouths and fangs, as they charged toward the Golden Spirit Mother to aid Yun Zhongzi.

When Yun Zhongzi saw his three junior brothers helping him, he immediately showed a happy expression.

"You all say that our Jie Sect only knows how to bully the weak with numbers, which damages the prestige of the Xuanmen. What kind of behavior is this now?"

The Golden Light Mother snorted coldly, and in a flash, she manifested four heads and eight arms, sitting on a seven-fragrance chariot, commanding stars and thunder.

With the blessing of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, he fought against Yun Zhongzi and his two companions to a standstill, evenly matched, despite being outnumbered three to one.

But her opponents were, after all, three Great Luo Immortals of the Chan Sect, as well as the Golden-haired Hou and White Jade Elephant under the command of Cihang and Puxian, who were originally Dingguang Xian and Lingya Xian of the Jie Sect.

Logically speaking, under these circumstances, even if they weren't putting up a fight, they should at least be paddling around.

Whether they were completely subdued by Cihang and Puxian's supernatural powers or had some other ulterior motive, they actually started fighting without showing any mercy.

The number of opponents facing the Golden Light Mother has increased from three to five, and as time goes on, weaknesses are bound to emerge.

Seeing that the Golden Light Mother had revealed a flaw, how could Yun Zhongzi and the others miss such an opportunity?

Cihang smashed down the Four Seas Bottle, summoning willow branches; Puxian unleashed the Rainbow Rope; and Yunzhongzi summoned an endless sea of ​​fire with the Heaven-Piercing Divine Fire Pillar.
The Golden-haired Hou and the White Jade Elephant showed no mercy and immediately unleashed their strongest supernatural powers to attack.

In an instant, water from all the seas poured down from the jade bottle, like a dam collapsing in the heavens, and willow branches transformed into phantom images of towering willow trees, lashing down heavily.

The rainbow chains transformed into a red dragon, binding the body of the Golden Spirit Mother and tying her three arms, making it difficult for her to move.

The boundless Yang fire within the Heavenly Fire Pillar scorched the Golden Spirit's soul, threatening to deliver a fatal blow to the Golden Spirit Mother.

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit gritted her teeth, showing no intention of admitting defeat.

Despite his talkative nature when teaching disciples like Yang Jiao and Wen Zhong, he was approachable and easy-going.

But if you cross her bottom line, she will absolutely not be kind to you.

Yun Zhongzi killing Wen Zhong—that was her bottom line.

As for Yun Zhongzi's claim that Lei Zhenzi died at the hands of the Golden Light Holy Mother, she paid no attention to it and it could not shake her desire for revenge and to seek justice for Wen Zhong.

Seeing Yun Zhongzi and the others unleash their supernatural powers and magical treasures, Jinling Shengmu's eyes flashed with lightning and burned with starlight, clearly showing that she was ready to fight to the death.

The Golden Spirit Mother's entire body surged with magical power, and the Four Symbols Pagoda flew out into the air, suppressing the willow branches.

With a mighty slash, the flying golden sword in his hand cleaved through the surging waters of the Milky Way.

The dragon and tiger jade ruyi in his other hand flew out, smashing away the chains binding him.

At the same time, her four heads and four arms cast spells and incantations, summoning numerous star projections to knock away the golden-haired beast and the white jade elephant, and gradually suppressing the pillar of heavenly fire.

He actually managed to block the combined attack of three members of the Chan Sect and their two mounts all by himself. Such divine power is truly terrifying!
However, Jinling Shengmu herself was also suffering. Yun Zhongzi and the others had seized her weakness, gained the upper hand, and dealt her a heavy blow.

Although the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit was not defeated, she was seriously injured.

However, such injuries are not fatal. Whether they continue fighting or retreat first, the initiative is in Jinling Shengmu's hands, and Yun Zhongzi and the others cannot do anything to her.

However, this is on the premise that the only opponents of the Golden Spirit Mother are Yun Zhongzi and others.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, a ruler appeared in the sky above the Golden Spirit Mother, tearing through the void.

The figure of the Taoist Ran Deng appeared silently above the Golden Spirit Mother, and the purple-gold alms bowl in his hand, carrying immense force, slammed down...
