Chapter 846: Something is Happening in the Spirit Sea
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
As he felt the change in the Two Elements of Creation Formation, Li Yunfang’s expression remained calm, "This is indeed the case, the worst case scenario will be…."
Theoretically speaking, if Zhan Xiuluo snatches the Deathly Gas Stone away from the Two Elements of Creation Formation, it would only stop the formation from using the Changes of Life and Death.
With one change down, there would only be five changes left. This would cause the powers of the formation to be greatly weakened, but it would still be very powerful.
However, in reality, besides the Asura War-Blade, the rest of the enemies within the formation were also rivalling the formation. While the formation was suppressing them, both parties were pushed into a weird balance between each other.
At this point, once there were any changes in the formation, the powers of the formation would become significantly weaker. There was a possibility that it could crumble even under the slightest of attacks then.
After all, there were three Immortal Soul Third Level cultivators, three magic treasures in the Mahayana realm, three Immortal Soul Second Level cultivators and many other Immortal Soul First Level cultivators in the formation now.
Li Yuanfang took in a deep breath and conjured a spell with his hands. He summoned the powers of the Changes of Life and Death to the fullest. The rest of the changes directed their powers to the Changes of Life and Death, suppressing the Deathly Gas Stone and preventing it from moving.
At the same time, the Asura War-Blade was trapped in the Two Elements of Creation Formation, which precipitated a stalemate between both parties.
But in this way, the pressure that the formation gave to the rest of the enemies became weaker. It could only sustain for a while. Zhang Enrui and the rest were slowly reversing their situations. Only Xuan Li and Gu Peng managed to maintain a stronghold over their opponents.
Among the rest remaining, the Virtuous Zen Master and Dual Polarity Heavenly Mountain were critically injured. As they faced the opponents that were normally beneath their level, they could only sustain themselves.
Xiao Zhener was encircled by two Immortal Soul First Level cultivators at this point.
But among everyone, the one who was in the most danger was Xiao Yan. He had not recovered from his battle with Jie Luoshi. Now that he had to face Shao Dongtian and the Xuan Heaven Seal, he was in a precarious situation.
If it’s not because of the fact that Shao Dongtian and the Xuan Heaven Seal wanted to capture him without paying too much of a price, his situation would be even more dangerous.
Xiao Yan formed the Immortal Soul so suddenly and displayed a tremendous battling ability, which was beyond the expectations of Shi Tianfang, Shao Dongtian and the rest.
As for Zhu Yi who did not reveal himself, Shao Dongtian and the others were wary of him, which caused them to be a little distracted. Along with the fact that Xuan Li helped him out a little, he managed to sustain until this point.
But if this carried on, he would be overcome by Shao Dongtian and the Xuan Heaven Seal before Xuan Li defeated Shi Tianfang and the Wheels of the Six Paths.
Li Yuanfang maintained his expression, but his forehead started to drip with sweat. He looked up to the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree, in the direction of the Heavenly Ray Cosmic World, "Tianhao is unreachable. If Third Senior and the others don’t come back in time, Second Senior’s efforts will have to be wasted."
As a huge battle ensued on Mount Yujing, right now in the Spirit Sea at the boundary where the world of the Spirit Sea was connected to the ocean, there was a huge light ball that was flashing with a dim radiance.
The radiance was white at times and black at times. It kept on alternating between the two colors.
Lin Feng’s actual body and the Thunder Dragon Avatar were now both inside the light ball, facing each other. They were analyzing some mantras together, trying to deduce the third chapter of the Heavenly Classic of the Way’s Virtue, the Two Elements Chapter.
Whereas his Avatar of Ares was standing quietly outside the light ball, along with the Flowing Waves Holy Man. They were both feeling the brilliance of the Great Dao inside the Spirit Sea.
"Oh?" The Avatar of Ares opened his eyes suddenly and looked in the direction of the world of the Spirit Sea far away.
They witnessed the surge of the huge tidal wave from the Spirit Sea again, towards the ocean.
And this tidal wave was even greater than before. Inside this wave, there were countless light belts formed from the principles of Great Dao.
It was as if countless principles of Great Dao were forcing their way towards the ocean.
Before the wave reached before them, Lin Feng’s Avatar of Ares shook a little. As he waved his hand, the stone stair and stone flute landed in mid-space. The stone stair and stone flute had already lost their radiance as if they were just average stone carvings.
The power concept and spiritual will within them disappeared as the wave surged. It must have been caused by the actions of the Great Void Sect.
Lin Feng creased his brows, "As compared to before, the wave is indeed stronger now. As expected, the Great Void Sect is smart. They have managed to change a disaster into an opportunity. They have used this opportunity to deepen their understanding and control of the Spirit Sea."
"If they manage to mend the hole in the Spirit Sea, will they control it entirely?"
"This is the worst case scenario I can think of."
The wave was still targeting the ocean and did not have any effect on Lin Feng and the Flowing Waves Holy Man.
Lin Feng looked at the intersecting light belts in the wave and his eyes squinted, "Even with hard work, the only position is second. The best result will only be second. This is not what I want to see…"
At this point, in another region of the world of the Spirit Sea, there were a few people seated on their knees. They formed two circles, one inner and one outer.
In the middle of the two circles, there were two people sitting there. One of them had a gentle expression on his face and his eyes were shut. The other had snow-white hair and looked extremely dignified. Both of them were the Tai Yi Holy Man and the Zheng Yi Holy Man.
They were seated facing each other. Between the both of them, a talisman floated in mid-space. Countless light belts extended out of the talismans, which seemed to connect to the entire Spirit Sea.
Besides the both of them, Yun Yuanzhen was standing at one side. As he moved her hands, streaks and streaks of mana flew out, converting into streaks and streaks of light. These lights revolved around the Tai Yi Holy Man and the Zheng Yi Holy Man along with the talismans.
Whereas on the outer circle, the Xuan Lin Holy Man, Cai Fengzhou, Yu Yuan Holy Woman and Lin Daohan were seated in four different directions.
Right now, a talisman floated above each of their heads. Countless light runes surged out from these talismans.
These light runes projected an image behind each of their backs.
At this point, in the image projected from Yu Yuan Holy Woman’s back, there was a man and woman standing.
That man was extremely handsome and elegant. He also wore a calm expression on his face. On his brows, a full Moon-like diagram was changing continuously, acting out the wax and waning cycles of the Moon.
The brows of the woman seemed surreal and her facial features revealed her charm. She held a circular mirror in her arms and followed behind the man.
They were Yue Huatian and Li Jingyuan.
Whereas in the image projected behind Lin Daohan, there was a man in an ancient costume, who wore a peaceful look on his face. It was as if he was very confident of everything and that everything was under his control.
This man looked similar to Yan Nanlai, the current leader of the Great Void Sect.
He was the second leader of the Great Void Sect, one of the Four Immemorial Heroes of the Great Void, Yan Xinghe, who was also Yan Nanlai’s ancestor.
Behind the Xuan Lin Holy Man, the image of a middle-aged man surfaced. He had a mighty stature. While he looked very passive, he seemed to be someone abnormally active at the same time.
The most eye-catching part of this man was his eyes.
He had polycoria eyes!
His eyes seemed to track the movements of the Sun and Moon. Countless lights shot out from his eyes, revealing the beautiful image of the Heavens and Earth.
He was Huang Chen, another one of the Four Immemorial Heroes of the Great Void. Since the Primordial Age, he had already started cultivating under the Great Void Holy Man. During the major war at the end of the Primordial Age, he killed the leaders of the Flaming Dragons, Green Dragons, and Jade Dragons on his own. He also killed the leader of the Yingzhao tribe, the Primordial Yingzhao, and made a great contribution to the human clan. At the same time, he was rumored to be the creators of those with polycoria.
But among the four projections of images, the most attention-seeking of them all was the one behind Cai Fengzhou. As compared to the other projections, it was much bigger. But it’s not because Cai Fengzhou was stronger, rather, it was because the talisman she summoned was stronger.
Inside that light projection, there was a tall and huge youth. His hair seemed very messy.
He dressed very differently from the other 3, who were all decked in white and had the picture of cloud embroidered on the sleeves of their robes. This man wore a linen robe that was brown in color and seemed extremely torn and tattered.
But it was this man who seemed to be even stronger than the other three, with the aura that he exuded.
He revealed a smile on his face and demonstrated the different temperament that he had as compared to the rest. He seemed extremely relaxed as if nothing could bother him.
And this man was the best among the Four Immemorial Heroes of the Great Void, the strongest cultivator after the Great Void Holy Man, Wen Chiyang.
There’s an old rumor that Wen Chiyang’s powers were so strong that he was hot on the heels of his own Master. When Emperor Ru was still around, Wen Chiyang fought him at the Ancient Desolate Galaxy but the result was a draw. When Emperor Ru opened the Great Thunderclap Temple, Wen Chiyang went to the temple to challenge him again. They both won one each.
After the Great Void Holy Man and The Buddha went to the Death Sea, Wen Chiyang was recognized as the strongest in the human clan then. He was even stronger than the human Emperor then. During the War Between the Two Worlds, he even challenged a Holy Demonic Emperor and injured him.
Right now, the Xuan Lin Holy Man, Cai Fengzhou, Yu Yuan Holy Woman and Lin Daohan sat on their knees. The light projection behind them shot out tremendous glows, which landed on the talisman between the Tai Yi Holy Man and the Zheng Yi Holy Man.
Yu Yuan Holy Woman said coldly, "The Hades Emperor will never have imagined that the trouble he caused to us in the past is going to give us the help we need in controlling the Spirit Sea."
"As compared to the Ying Sea, the Black Sea, the Netherworld Sea, and the other seas, the Spirit Sea is miraculous and unpredictable. It depends on the Greater World and is omnipresent. When we finally control it, we can suppress any target we want in the Greater World using the Spirit Sea, as long as we can confirm the location of the target"
Yun Yuanzhen smiled, "If anyone else gets the Spirit Sea and cannot confirm the location of their targets, they will still be unable to nab their targets. But for us, we have the Supreme Heavenly Mirror. Unless one is hidden within space-time turbulence, he will be spotted by the Supreme Heavenly Mirror. When the Supreme Heavenly Mirror works with the Spirit Sea, even if the Hades Emperor revives, we can suppress him too."
