Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 342 The Great Formation Displays Its Power, Five People Slay a Saint

Silence. A deathly silence between the disciples of the Chan Sect and the Western Sect.

The Azure Lotus Seed and the Golden Lotus Seed, one a late-stage Quasi-Saint and the other a mid-stage Quasi-Saint, were both suppressed before they could even withstand the pressure for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Looking at the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, shrouded in black mist and howling with eerie winds, the immortals fell silent.

After a long while, seeing his fellow disciples fall, Taiyi Zhenren could no longer restrain himself. He was by nature fierce and strong-willed, and Qinglianzi was his best friend. Seeing that no one else was reacting, he was extremely anxious. He stomped his foot and summoned the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover. His body was surrounded by immortal light, and he transformed into a stream of light, rushing into the great formation without hesitation.

At the same time, Ksitigarbha, a follower of the Western religion, also followed suit.

Ksitigarbha and Golden Lotus Seed didn't have a very good relationship. He would take action simply because he felt he could control the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation.

In Western Buddhism, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is originally responsible for maintaining the second cycle of reincarnation in the Buddhist realm. His greatest skill is eliminating the resentment of wronged souls and warding off disasters and calamities.

Therefore, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is confident that he can eliminate the ominous energy in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

However, the terror of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation far exceeded their imagination.

As soon as Taiyi Zhenren entered the formation, he felt the world around him suddenly turn upside down. The cold wind was like a knife, tearing his soul apart. The black mist seemed to have a substance, tightly binding him and making it difficult for his immortal power to circulate smoothly.

Although his Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover could resist some of the erosion, under the endless "bewitching the mind and depleting the vital energy" of the formation, he soon felt dizzy and weak in his limbs, and his cultivation seemed to have been suppressed by more than half.

He tried to discern directions and find a flaw in the formation, but found that no matter which direction he flew in, he was just going around in circles in endless twists and turns, and could not find a way out at all.

Ksitigarbha's situation was equally dire. He chanted the Heart Sutra, and the Buddha's light shone brightly, temporarily resisting the erosion of the formation. But he couldn't eliminate the ominous aura within the formation. The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, with its invisible and intangible power of annihilation, was gradually seeping into his Dao fruit.

Ksitigarbha could sense that although his golden body was undamaged, his vital energy was continuously being lost, and his mind was gradually becoming restless and uneasy.

He tried several times to use Buddhist teachings to exorcise the resentment within the formation, but the resentment seemed endless and instead tended to accumulate more and more.

The two were trapped in the formation, crying out to heaven and earth in vain. In desperation, they had no choice but to try to join forces to break the formation.

Taiyi Zhenren activated the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover with all his might, and the nine fire dragons roared towards the base of the formation, trying to break through the formation barrier.

Ksitigarbha then unleashed the Golden Wheel of Merit, radiating boundless Buddhist light to assist Taiyi Zhenren.

However, their attack was like a stone sinking into the sea, failing to cause even the slightest ripple.

The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was like a bottomless pit, easily swallowing their power.

Finally, after another wave of despairing confusion, the yin wind within the formation suddenly intensified, and the black mist surged like a tide. Before Taiyi Zhenren and Dizang could put up an effective resistance, they were swept into the core of the formation like falling leaves.

"boom!"

Another muffled thud, and silence returned to the formation. Taiyi and Dizang, like their two predecessors, had been easily suppressed by the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation and had completely disappeared without a trace.

Outside the formation, the immortals of the Chan Sect and the Western Sect looked at each other, their faces growing paler.

The dangers of the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation far exceeded their expectations; it seemed that no one below the level of a sage could escape its clutches.

"What should we do?!" Seeing Taiyi trapped, Yun Zhongzi said anxiously.

As the reincarnation of Hongyun the Good Corpse, Yun Zhongzi inherited Hongyun's kind-hearted nature perfectly, and he was genuinely worried about the four of them.

“Guang Chengzi, the Pangu Banner of the sect leader should be in your hands, right? Why don’t we borrow the Pangu Banner to break the formation now?” Randeng said, turning his head.

After hesitating for a moment, Guang Chengzi nodded and unleashed the Pangu Banner, slashing out a chaotic sword aura.

"Eldest sister, second sister, it's the Pangu Banner!" Bixiao exclaimed in surprise upon seeing it.

"Don't panic, so what if it's the Pangu Banner?" With that, Yunxiao's clone formed hand seals, and the Hunyuan Golden Bucket flew into the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.

The next second, the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation clearly grew larger, and the surrounding black mist became even thicker.

As the chaotic sword energy slashed down, Yunxiao's clone directly manipulated the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, the cold wind like a knife, trying to wear down the chaotic sword energy bit by bit.

Guang Chengzi, who witnessed this scene, froze. Could the Chaos Sword Qi really be obliterated like this?
Sometimes, what people fear most is what will happen; the chaotic sword energy was indeed gradually worn away.

"Even the Pangu Banner can't break this great formation?" Ran Deng said in disbelief.

The Western Religion was equally gloomy. Maitreya sighed and said, "I'm afraid only a sage can break this great formation."

Our gaze shifts to Kong Xuan.

Kong Xuan and his four companions fought the monster from the Three Mountains Pass to the highest heavens, and then from the highest heavens back into the chaos.

At this moment, in the chaos, the chaotic energy was torn apart by the violent magic power of both sides, turning into countless annihilation vortexes.

Although the monster had no facial features, it seemed to be able to see through everything. Its purple body emitted strange fluctuations, the Great Dao of Time froze the surrounding chaos, the Great Dao of Destruction turned into black light and devoured everything, the Great Dao of Thunder roared and shattered the void, and the Great Dao of Ice condensed the chaos into frost.

Its left arm, with its beastly claws, lashed out, tearing through space. Its pale right hand formed a seal, conjuring countless nightmare phantoms. Its left deer leg stomped the ground, creating a gust of wind, while its right insect leg writhed eerily, eliciting a chilling shriek.

Kong Xuan unleashed a burst of five-colored divine light, with five beams of light—blue, yellow, red, black, and white—spreading out like a peacock's tail, sweeping towards the monster in an attempt to seal it away.

However, as soon as the monster unleashed the Great Dao of Time, time itself froze, and the five-colored divine light was momentarily immobilized.

Seeing this, the Xuan Turtle responded with its perfected Dao of Water. An endless ocean appeared out of nowhere in the chaos, and towering waves rushed towards the monster, trying to drown it. However, the monster did not dodge or evade, but directly used the Dao of Ice to freeze the waves into icebergs.

Seeing the monster freeze, Chang Xi immediately unleashed her peak Quasi-Saint power. The power of Taiyin poured down like moonlight, and her good corpse, evil corpse, and obsessive corpse emerged together. Together with Chang Xi's main body, the three corpses manipulated the moonlight to unleash four cold sword lights, each slashing towards the monster's limbs.

Chang Xi thought she had seized the opportunity perfectly and was sure to hit the monster, but to her surprise, just as her sword energy was about to strike the monster, something strange seemed to happen around her. Her sword energy seemed to be distorted, turning from real to fake.

Yunxiao frowned, and immediately activated the Dao of Illusion and Reality. With a light wave of her hand, Changxi's distorted sword energy reappeared. Not only that, Yunxiao also created hundreds of divine weapons from the void, swords, spears, and halberds, all of which were incredibly realistic, and pierced towards the monster.

Seeing this, the monster wielded the Great Dao of Destruction, and with a terrifying roar, all the divine weapons shattered.

Yunxiao remained calm and composed. He shifted between reality and illusion once more, the divine weapon shattered by the monster transforming into a phantom mist that trapped the monster. The monster lost its way and its senses were stripped away, allowing the group to seize the opportunity to attack. The monster was finally wounded.

The pain from the wounds made the monster even more terrifying and ferocious. Its thunderous aura erupted, and billions of lightning bolts shattered the mist.

"Junior sister, run!" Kong Xuan immediately reminded her.

Yunxiao immediately used the Crimson Cloud Escape Technique to avoid the coverage area of ​​the sea of ​​lightning.

As the lightning dissipated, Yunxiao reappeared. She raised her hand and pointed, causing the dissipated lightning to reappear and strike the monster's head under Yunxiao's control.

The monster was caught off guard by Yunxiao's unexpected move and was struck by its own lightning. As the monster's body went numb, Qin Yueyue transformed the mortal energy into invisible threads, which burrowed into the monster's body, stirring up its deep-seated chaotic desires.

However, this monster has no mind, and worldly influences have no effect on it.

Youqin Yueyue snorted coldly and said, "Even without a mind, there is still cause and effect, right? Red Lotus Karmic Fire, ignite it!"

"Boom!" With a command from Youqin Yueyue, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire ignited from her body, scorching her purple torso.

The monster roared, and its most core Dream Dao finally erupted, turning chaos into a dream world, and four of the five people immediately fell into a deep sleep.

In his dream, Kong Xuan dreamed that he was unable to escape his tribulation and was ultimately defeated by Zhunti. He was then converted by Zhunti, and the Phoenix Clan was eventually destroyed without him.

Xuan Gui dreamed that the Jianmu tree, which supported the primordial world, was cut down, and the primordial world was about to collapse. At this moment, the Heavenly Dao Hongjun personally intervened, knocking him back to his original form and severing his four limbs to support the primordial world.

Chang Xi dreamt that she returned to the era of the Lich Wars. In order to protect her sister, she married Di Jun with her sister. However, it was all in vain. The demon race was still destroyed, and her sister also perished. This time, she herself could not escape.

Yunxiao dreamed that the three sisters' Nine Turns Yellow River Formation was broken by Yuanshi Tianzun, who then bullied the younger ones and killed them.

Youqin Yueyue was the only one who did not completely fall into the dream. She was surrounded by the power of incense and prayers, which in a sense is equivalent to merit and has the effect of being immune to all evil.

Seeing that the other four were all trapped in nightmares, Youqin Yueyue quickly distributed her incense offerings and prayers to them.

The monster clearly wouldn't give the four a chance to wake up; it roared and charged at them.

Upon seeing this, Youqin Yueyue's three corpses appeared, and the mortal energy surged, accumulating countless eons of incense and vows to connect Youqin Yueyue's three corpses.

Soon, a vast and ethereal holy might swept across the entire battlefield. Just like when she faced the Primordial Celestial Venerable before, Youqin Yueyue used the mortal energy to temporarily merge her three corpses back into her original body, and a phantom Primordial Golden Immortal Dao Fruit floated above her head.

Youqin Yueyue, who briefly possessed the power of a saint, stopped the monster.

The other four, with the help of the incense and prayers, gradually saw through the dream.

"Break!" Kong Xuan roared, his voice echoing in the dream. The five-colored divine light suddenly surged, forcefully scattering the surrounding dream!
The Great Dao of Water of the Black Tortoise hangs like an inverted Milky Way, transforming into a surging torrent that washes away all illusions and falsehoods!
Changxi Taiyin Sword light rose again, each strike carrying the resolute determination to shatter illusions, cutting the dream into pieces!

The Dao of Clouds and Reality reversed, and the dream was turned into an illusion by her, briefly trapping the monster for a moment!
Upon seeing this, Youqin Yueyue's eyes lit up. She used the power of incense and vows to condense an immortal golden body, and the red lotus karmic fire transformed into nine roaring fire dragons, carrying the fury of burning everything, and rushed towards the monster!

The monster's body was pierced by the fire dragon and it was sent flying. The illusory Primordial Golden Immortal Dao Fruit above Qin Yueyue's head also dissipated.

However, her attack was remarkably effective. The monster's aura as a second-level Saint dropped to the mid-stage of the first-level Saint.

Kong Xuan's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Everyone, your chance to kill this monster is right in front of you! Let's all charge!"

Upon hearing this, everyone rushed forward.

Seeing this, the monster also began to fight desperately. It unleashed all its power without reservation, unleashing five great paths simultaneously. Time froze in the chaos, thunder roared, ice sealed for thousands of miles, destruction devoured, and dreams were distorted.

The five people's original offensive was instantly suppressed to the extreme, and countless deep spatial rifts cracked in the surrounding chaos, as if they were about to devour everything.

With the protection of the Xuan Turtle's shell and the incense and vows of Qin Yueyue, Kong Xuan withstood the thunderous attack that was enough to tear apart a saint, and arrived in front of the monster. He then unleashed a burst of five-colored divine light, piercing the monster's body once again.

His attack faltered, and the Xuan Turtle seized the opportunity, transforming into its true form. Its massive body withstood the extreme cold that was enough to freeze the heavens and the earth.

Chang Xi summoned the Three Corpses again, unleashing four sword beams. The four sword beams then slowly merged, resembling a new moon, and slashed towards the core of the monster.

The clouds shifted between reality and illusion, skillfully mitigating the erosion of destructive power.

Youqin Yueyue used the Red Lotus Karmic Fire to continuously burn the core of the monster.

As the battle reached its climax, deep, bone-revealing cracks appeared on the monster's purple body.

Kong Xuan seized this fleeting opportunity, condensing the five-colored divine light into a single point, transforming it into a jet-black spear, carrying the power to pierce through everything, and thrusting straight into the monster's core!

Seeing this, Yunxiao conjured countless intertwined chains from the void, binding the monster tightly.

Seeing this, the other three also went all out to attack the monster's core.

Finally, the five of them combined their strength and struck with a resolute determination to shatter everything, instantly piercing through the monster's torso!
The monster let out a silent yet chaotic roar, and its core, the Great Dao of Dreams, collapsed under this attack!

The five had been fighting this monster for a long time and had long since realized that the Great Dao of Dreams was the core of this monster, and its collapse would undoubtedly be a fatal blow!

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to strike back! Without the slightest hesitation, Kong Xuan immediately summoned another treasure of his master, Bai Jing—the Primordial Measuring Ruler.

Holding the Primordial Measuring Ruler in his hand, Kong Xuan unhesitatingly activated an attack left behind by his master within the ruler.

Suddenly, Kong Xuan swung the Primordial Measuring Ruler in his hand, and a dazzling beam of light pierced through the chaos!

This beam of light transcended the constraints of time, ignored the distance of space, severed the entanglement of cause and effect, and reversed the trajectory of fate! With an unstoppable and incredible speed, it struck the monster's forehead with unparalleled precision!
The monster's eyes showed terror upon seeing the attack.

"Crack crack crack~ Crack~" After a series of crisp sounds, the monster's body shattered completely like a broken vase.

The monster left behind its last syllable, "Pan," before vanishing into nothingness.

A monster comparable to a second-level saint was slain by five people who had not yet become saints.
