Luck entry, starting from the Nine Dragons' succession

Chapter 169 This thunder is called the Azure Emperor's Yin-Yang Transformation Divine Thunder

A quarter of an hour later.

The guards hurried toward Fang Heng.

"Your Highness, I have found this on the sword puppet."

The guards presented a bronze sword key with both hands.

The sword and key are made entirely of bronze, with a mottled surface that exudes the aura of time.

Fang Heng took the bronze sword key, scanned it with his divine sense, and a message entered his mind.

"I see!" Fang Heng exclaimed subconsciously.

"Your Highness, what about this bronze sword key?" Fang Chongyue asked in a low voice from the side.

"This is the opportunity within the Heavenly Sword Palace."

"Collect eight bronze sword keys and combine them into the Eight Directions Sword Token to obtain the opportunity in the Yi-shaped path."

Fang Heng revealed the information contained in the bronze sword key.

how to say?

This information struck Fang Heng as being full of design sense.

The master of Tianque Sword Palace is also an interesting person.

It seems as if they are deliberately nurturing future generations, and even leaving them opportunities and treasures.

Furthermore, cultivators who enter the Heavenly Sword Palace are encouraged to fight each other.

Like raising a venomous insect, it cultivates the strongest among them.

If the zigzag road is like this, then the other nine roads are probably the same.

Fang Heng thought secretly in his heart.

Then, recalling the three hexagrams associated with the "seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune" destiny, he suddenly understood.

Upper trigram: Enter the Sword Puppet Maze through the paths of Yi, Ding, and Wu, and you will obtain a fortuitous opportunity.

The opportunity mentioned in the divination undoubtedly refers to the treasure obtained after synthesizing the Eight Directions Sword Token.

The paths of Bing, Ji, and Xin offer neither gain nor loss.

This means that the opportunities in the three paths of Bing, Ji, and Xin have already been taken by those who came before.

Those who choose these three paths will only find their hopes dashed.

As for the paths A and G, not only were the opportunities taken away by others, but unexpected changes also occurred.

The demonic sword puppet mentioned in the divination is probably not a normal sword puppet.

After understanding the divination results, Fang Heng immediately ordered his personal guards to search for the whereabouts of the other seven bronze sword keys.

At this point, the advantage of having more people becomes apparent.

The prince's guards split up and searched, their efficiency far exceeding that of individuals working alone.

……

A group of Sword Pavilion cultivators appeared on the zigzag road.

The person in charge was not Wei Jiuxiao's eldest disciple, Zhu Xuanyi, but Zhu Xuanyi's junior brother, Lin Feng.

The Sword Pavilion members entered the Sword Puppet Maze from the Jiazi Road.

Subsequently, they were teleported to the other nine paths using the treasures left behind by the founding patriarch of the Sword Pavilion.

Sword Pavilion's plan is to set up sub-arrays of the Nine Abyss Exorcising Sword Formation on all ten paths.

The ten formations merged into one, sealing off heaven and earth.

This completely blocked everyone else from entering the Heavenly Sword Palace.

Lin Feng's team was responsible for setting up the "B" formation.

It took Lin Feng half an hour to lead the Sword Pavilion disciples to successfully set up the sub-formation.

Buzz!
A flash of inspiration, and the sword gleamed fiercely.

A sword formation appeared out of thin air, exuding a chilling killing intent; just one glance was enough to send shivers down one's spine.

"Senior Brother Lin, look what I found!"

A clear and delicate female voice rang in Lin Feng's ears.

A female disciple from the Sword Pavilion was seen holding a bronze sword key and speaking in a flattering tone.

Lin Feng could see the woman's feelings at a glance.

However, he had already pledged his love to the sword, and could no longer pledge it to her.

Lin Feng's face darkened, his expression turning icy: "Junior Sister Su, don't forget the Pavilion Master's grand plan. We'll talk about the opportunity within the Bronze Sword Key after the Nine Abyss Exorcising Sword Formation is activated."

The woman from Jian Ge felt wronged, her eyes filled with resentment, looking as if she had been abandoned by a heartless man, and tears welled up in her eyes.

……

While the Sword Pavilion disciples were setting up their sword formation, Fang Heng was reaping considerable benefits.

Seven of the eight bronze sword keys have been collected.

The six bronze sword keys obtained by the guards were obtained by various means: some were taken from sword puppets, some were snatched from cultivators, and some were offered to them by those who wanted to curry favor with Fang Heng.

"Your Highness, only the last bronze sword key remains, and its whereabouts are still unknown," Fang Chongyue said in a muffled voice.

Fang Heng did not blame him, but instead took out seven bronze sword keys and they resonated with each other.

Soon, he sensed the location of the last bronze sword key.

"To the northeast!"

After saying this, Fang Heng led his personal guards and fled northeast.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Fang Heng saw the sword light soaring into the sky through the layers of stone forest.

Fang Heng was an expert in formations and could tell at a glance that these sword lights vaguely formed a sword formation.

Looking into the distance, I saw the group of people setting up the sword formation, dressed in the Taoist robes of the Sword Pavilion.

"What are the Sword Pavilion's plans?"

A hint of suspicion flashed across Fang Heng's face, and he revealed a thoughtful expression.

Instead of busy seeking opportunities, the people of Sword Pavilion were spending time and effort setting up sword formations, which Fang Heng couldn't understand for a moment.

Immediately, he took out a communication jade talisman and told Pei Qingxuan what had happened here.

Pei Qingxuan glanced at the contents of the communication jade pendant, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes narrowed.

"Nine Abyss Demon-Slaying Sword Formation?"

"Wei Jiuxiao has huge ambitions. Does he intend to take over the Heavenly Sword Palace for himself?"

Others might not recognize the Nine Abyss Exorcising Sword Formation, but she, the Holy Maiden of the Sword Pavilion, knew it all too well.

Once the Nine Abyss Demon-Slaying Sword Formation is completed, it can seal off heaven and earth. Even without a master in charge, it is enough to annihilate all cultivators below the tenth realm.

If Wei Jiuxiao were to personally oversee the operation, even cultivators at the twelfth realm would be in danger of perishing.

Pei Qingxuan told Fang Heng about Wei Jiuxiao's plan.

Fang Heng glanced at the contents of the communication jade talisman, then snorted coldly, secretly cursing in his heart.

The Ten Great Dao Courts are truly domineering!

Do you really think the Heavenly Sword Palace is run by your Sword Pavilion?

They actually planned to seal off heaven and earth and monopolize the Heavenly Sword Palace.

Fang Heng's expression turned slightly cold as he looked at the sword formation in the distance, a thoughtful look on his face.

Even though the sword formation in the zigzag path is only a sub-formation, it is still difficult to break.

In particular, this kind of formation, which is presided over by someone, can change constantly and is not rigid.

Moreover, Lin Feng, who was in charge of the formation, also possessed the strength of the eighth realm.

With the sword formation's support, even a cultivator at the tenth realm would probably find it difficult to defeat the opponent in a short time.

After pondering for a moment, Fang Heng had an idea.

"Chongyue, draw all the distribution of the sword puppets on the map."

Fang Heng's order left Fang Chongyue completely bewildered.

Although he couldn't understand it, Fang Chongyue didn't ask. He simply followed Fang Heng's instructions and drew the distribution of the sword puppets on the map.

Holding the map, Fang Heng first arrived at the area with the most sword puppets.

"Defend me!"

After giving the order, Fang Heng sat cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed.

At the same time, the Everlasting Scripture within his body was operating wildly.

He pushed the Qi Luck Treasure, the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, to its limit.

The extremely dense earth vein energy surged towards the sword puppet and entered its body.

The earth veins of the Sword Puppet and the Heavenly Sword Palace are originally one.

It offered no resistance to the invasion of the earth's ley line power, but instead obediently surrendered control.

When Fang Heng sensed his control over the sword puppet through the power of the earth's veins, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Become!

"rise!"

With a sharp shout, Fang Heng commanded thousands of sword puppets to obey his order and surge towards the next gathering area of ​​sword puppets.

Fang Chongyue and his guards were stunned by what they saw, their jaws dropping to the floor, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

Your Highness, you can actually control the sword puppet?

Fang Heng herded the sword puppet like a sheep.

The sword puppets, as docile as lambs, roamed the mountains and fields, heading towards the next gathering area of ​​sword puppets.

Following the same method, it took less than an hour.

Fang Heng controlled most of the sword puppets in the Zizi Road, leaving only a few that he didn't bother to manipulate.

Nearly ten thousand sword puppets respectfully greeted Fang Heng.

Such a grand scene resembled a military parade.

A surge of heroic spirit welled up within him. "Go!"

Fang Heng shouted sharply, pointing his finger in the direction of the sword formation.

Upon hearing Fang Heng's command, the sword puppet army marched towards the sword formation in a mighty wave.

The earth shook violently, and dust filled the air.

The guards, led by Fang Chongyue, looked on with the same reverence they would show when they saw this scene, as if they were seeing a deity.

Within the sword formation.

Two disciples of the Sword Pavilion were whispering to each other.

"I heard that Senior Sister Su was rejected by Senior Brother Lin again."

"Shh—keep your voice down. The affairs of the two disciples are not something we can discuss behind their backs."

"Hehe—I'm just saying this in front of you. I won't say a word in front of outsiders."

"Poor Senior Sister Su. If she took a liking to me, I would be the groom in the bridal chamber every day."

"Hmph—with your potential, how could Senior Sister Su possibly be interested in you?"

"Stop overthinking, we still have patrols to do!"

"We must not delay the Pavilion Master's grand plan."

“I know…” The Sword Pavilion disciple paused, a hint of suspicion on his face, “However, it seems there are fewer sword puppets nearby. Have you noticed?”

"Now that you mention it, it's true. We haven't encountered any sword puppets charging into the formation for a quarter of an hour..."

Before the two Sword Pavilion disciples could finish speaking, a violent tremor suddenly came from the ground.

The ground shook violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.

"what happened?"

The two Sword Pavilion disciples quickly activated their divine senses to observe the surroundings.

The next second, their faces turned deathly pale, completely devoid of color.

A vast army of sword puppets appeared in their divine senses.

As far as the eye can see, the endless army of sword puppets resembles a surging river, with waves rising one after another.

This terrifying scene instantly made their legs tremble uncontrollably.

"Quickly...go and inform Senior Brother Lin!"

Upon seeing the two Sword Pavilion disciples return with the news, Fang Heng sneered but did not stop them.

He mobilized nearly ten thousand sword puppets, employing a human wave tactic.

No matter how powerful your sword formation is, can it withstand the attack of nearly ten thousand sword puppets?

Even if the sword formation can withstand the attack, the cultivator who is in charge of the sword formation will not be able to hold on and will eventually die from exhaustion.

"kill!"

At Fang Heng's command, nearly ten thousand sword puppets, like fearless suicide soldiers, launched a resolute charge.

At the same time, the sword formation, under Lin Feng's control, shone brightly.

The condensed sword intent soared straight into the sky.

Tens of thousands of sword lights shot out from the formation.

Densely packed, blotting out the sky, like ten thousand swords returning to their origin.

boom--

The army of sword puppets and the torrent of sword light clashed head-on.

Like two giant waves colliding head-on, they unleashed a deafening roar.

The sound was deafening, like thunder in the heavens, like mountains collapsing, like rivers drying up.

Even through the array, the shockwave made the Sword Pavilion disciples' eardrums go numb.

Several Sword Pavilion disciples with poor character were terrified upon seeing this scene and considered fleeing.

Unfortunately, countless sword puppets covered the mountains and fields, completely surrounding the Sword Pavilion members, leaving them nowhere to escape even if they wanted to.

After the first collision, the first hundred sword puppets were cleaved into pieces by the sharp sword light.

However, this did not slow down the sword puppet's advance at all.

The army of sword puppets surged forward like a tidal wave.

Upon seeing this, Lin Feng frowned, his face filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Such a commotion, with such a massive scale of sword puppets, could not have arisen spontaneously.

Who is plotting against their Sword Pavilion?
Qiankun Sect? Shenxiao Sect? Or Shennong Valley?
Damn!

Lin Feng's mood had sunk to rock bottom.

The moment they were surrounded by the sword puppet army, their mission had already failed.

Even if I can break through by relying on my cultivation level, what about the other Sword Pavilion disciples?
More importantly, the sub-arrays of the Nine Abyss Demon-Slaying Sword Formation were completely failed to be set up.

"Fellow disciples, bring out all your tricks."

"If we don't give it our all now, we'll never have another chance!"

Lin Feng still intended to boost morale, but faced with the overwhelming force of the sword puppet army, everyone's spirits sank to the bottom, as if a huge boulder was pressing on their hearts, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.

Fang Heng, who was secretly manipulating the sword puppet army, shook his head as he saw the resistance within the sword formation intensify once again.

The sword puppet relies on the earth veins of the Heavenly Sword Palace, and its power comes from the earth veins.

The power of the earth's veins is inexhaustible, and these sword puppets are naturally in perpetual motion as well.

Unless one uses absolute power to break the law.

Otherwise, engaging in a war of attrition with the sword puppet army would only lead to certain death.

When Lin Feng chose to confront the sword puppet army, he had already embarked on a dead end.

The battle between the two sides lasted for an hour.

The deafening roar and intense fluctuations of spiritual energy kept everyone within a radius of dozens of miles away from approaching.

An hour later, the sword puppet army finally broke through the layers of sword energy and crashed into the sword formation.

Like a raging wave crashing against the shore, a terrifying force struck the sword formation.

The light screen of the sword formation shook violently, emitting mournful cries.

As for the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, they were already exhausted after an hour of all-out fighting.

Their magical power was depleted in their dantian, and they could only watch helplessly as the wave of sword puppets engulfed them, unable to even utter a scream.

"Senior Brother Lin, you go quickly! I'll cover your retreat!"

Seeing the beautiful woman beside him with a resolute look in her eyes, Lin Feng felt a sudden, inexplicable pain in his heart, as if it were being stabbed.

Did I make the wrong choice?
boom--

The beauty's self-destruction created a gap in the sword puppet army, providing Lin Feng with an opportunity to escape.

Ignoring his grief, he quickly activated his escape technique and fled towards the gap.

He absolutely couldn't waste the opportunity that Junior Sister Su had created with such difficulty.

However, his escape light had just taken off.

Suddenly, a clap of thunder appeared out of nowhere.

Like a bolt from the blue, it struck Lin Feng abruptly, catching him completely off guard.

Azure lightning transformed into a thunder dragon, rushing towards Lin Feng.

The Thunder Dragon was terrifying in appearance, as if it possessed the power to destroy the world.

Wherever it passed, the void was filled with thunder.

Anyone who gets even a tiny bit of it will become a charred corpse.

"Taiyi Divine Thunder!"

"Shenxiao Sect!"

Lin Feng's eyes were bloodshot as he gritted his teeth and said.

The person behind the whole thing, although not yet revealed, has finally had their identity exposed.

They really are from another Daoist court!
Hateful!
"cut!"

Lin Feng burned out his last bit of magic power and, with all his might, unleashed a sword strike.

A dazzling sword light pierced through the void, accompanied by a piercing sword cry, and slashed down at the head of the thunder dragon.

He sensed something was wrong the instant the sword fell.

This……

It doesn't seem to be the Wood Divine Thunder!

What kind of lightning magic is this?
It's even stronger than the Yi Wood Divine Thunder?
Just as Lin Feng was puzzled, a calm and collected voice rang in his ears.

"This thunder is called the Azure Emperor's Yin-Yang Transformation Divine Thunder!"

This was the last sound Lin Feng could hear.

As these calm words fell, the thunder dragon instantly swallowed him up.

Looking at the corpses of the Sword Pavilion disciples, Fang Heng felt neither sorrow nor joy, and murmured to himself:

"I've done Pei Qingxuan a huge favor!"

How should she repay me?

"Next time, should you wear nude-colored? Or white?"

Fang Heng lightly stroked his chin with his fingertips, his gaze shifting slightly, and then he took out seven bronze sword keys from his sleeve.

Just then, the eighth sword key hanging from the waist of the female cultivator from the Sword Pavilion surnamed Su suddenly hummed and trembled.

As if summoned from the depths of the universe, it suddenly broke free from its restraints and transformed into a streak of azure light that shot into the sky!

Eight sword keys hovered in the air, their energy intertwined, and they merged together like stars returning to their places, eventually fusing into an ancient and weighty octagonal sword token.

A white light suddenly burst forth from the Eight Directions Sword Token, pointing south.

This is precisely the opportunity indicated by the hexagram.
