"It's still just one move away..."
Yuwentai's heart was full of remorse and regret, but it didn't help.
How could he know that Patriarch Zhenyang and others would foolishly send an incarnation so that it could be used by Master Qingxu as a weapon against him?
But it's too late to say this now. He has already lost completely and has completely lost hope of making a comeback.
"time to go!"
Although Yuwentai was a little reluctant to give up, he finally made a decision.
Right now, there are at least a few breaths left until Master Qingxu returns to the core main hall and regains control of the formation center. This is his last chance of survival.
He can be sure that once the opponent regains control of the formation center, he will never give him a second chance. Even if he gives up the blood sacrifice and melts the soul, he will definitely mobilize the power of the formation to kill him.
When it's time to break, it's time to break. If you can still escape now, you have to run away quickly.
"boom!"
Yu Wentai withdrew his illusory body and revealed his true body for the first time. His whole body was filled with dazzling golden flames, like a god descending to earth.
Various Taoist techniques were applied in turn, causing him to burst out with unstoppable power in every movement. He was hit with three punches and two kicks, and he fell into madness. He screamed in pain from three sides, and his whole body was broken with muscles and bones.
After the three-faced incarnation lost its mind, only its animalistic instincts remained. Not only was its mana and spiritual power extremely rough, it was even unable to perform Taoist magic and activate magic weapons. Naturally, it was no match for Yuwentai.
"Damn it! We were fooled!"
"This realm-breaker is Yu Wentai, and I am very familiar with his methods! And that Master Qingxu... he really deserves to die!"
"Don't get entangled with him, find an opportunity to escape! The soul-living incarnation can be destroyed, but the housekeeping magic weapon must not be trapped!"
The three magic weapons, the red ring, the flying sword and the seal, flew up and down anxiously around the body of the three incarnations, but there was nothing they could do.
After losing control of the incarnation, the spiritual thoughts of Zhenyang Patriarch and others were forced to live in their own magic weapons. However, the magic weapons separated from the master could not exert any power, and they could only watch the avatars being destroyed. Yuwentai was beaten hard.
"Boom!"
A powerful and heavy punch dented the chest of the three avatars and sent them flying hundreds of feet.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to get rid of the entanglement, Yu Wentai gritted his teeth and activated a certain forbidden method, and a violent five-color brilliance rose up all over his body, complementing the spiritual pattern formations all around him.
"Buzz!"
The space was shaking violently, and the formation, which was already in serious disorder and showed signs of collapse, suddenly opened a hole.
The entrance to the cave was pitch black, but one could vaguely see what seemed to be a scene deep underground somewhere. It was obvious that this was a passage connecting to the outside world.
"Whoosh!"
Yuwentai instantly transformed into a stream of light, rushed into the cave entrance, and disappeared.
at the same time:
"Swish!" "Swish!"...
The three magic weapons also seized this opportunity and flew away in a hurry, trying their best to catch up.
"call out!"
The lightning flying sword was the fastest, spanning hundreds of feet in an instant and rushing into the rapidly shrinking black hole.
The speed of the crimson ring was obviously slower, but it still managed to escape dangerously.
Only the last khaki seal was left. Because the speed was the slowest, he could only watch with dizzy eyes as the black hole, which shrank like a needle tip, disappeared, leaving him empty-handed.
"No!!"
The consciousness of the Sanshan Patriarch in the Wanshan True Seal is almost going crazy.
The small seal turned into an earthy yellow streamer, running around crazily in this small world. Unfortunately, you only have one chance. If you miss it, you will miss it forever.
…………
After crashing into a dozen small worlds along the way:
Zhang Yao finally felt that the impact of the formation interference on him had weakened to a certain extent, and he instantly controlled the power of the formation and teleported across space.
"Buzz!"
The next moment, Zhang Yao's eyes flashed, and he appeared in the main hall of the cave mansion in the core place.
Without saying a word, he flew forward and placed a palm on the central jade pillar. He mobilized all his magic power and divine thoughts, and in an instant he once again firmly controlled the formation authority.
"boom……"
A torrent of fluctuations surged through, and under the coercive power of the highest authority, all formation disorders were subsided.
"Fortunately, I caught up."
Zhang Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
If the fierce battle between the two lasts longer, I am afraid that the formation will suffer irreversible damage, and then his plan will fail and the losses will be extremely heavy.
Fortunately, he seized the only variable of the three-faced incarnation, successfully reversed the situation, regained control of the center of the formation, and gained the power to suppress everything.
"Um?"
He raised his eyebrows, and his mind noticed that Yuwentai's aura was no longer present in each small world.
Not only that, in the original small world, two of the three magic weapons disappeared out of thin air, leaving only one khaki seal that was running wildly.
"...Let him run away."
Zhang Yao frowned, but was not too surprised.
The formation is chaotic and tends to collapse, and even the space partition mechanism has begun to fail. This is the best opportunity to escape.
With Yu Wentai's courage and skill, as well as his familiarity with the secret formation, if he can't escape in this situation, there will be a problem.
"Forget it, just run away."
Zhang Yao quickly calmed down and didn't pay too much attention.
The direct loss caused by Yuwentai's running away was the loss of the main material for soul-melting blood sacrifice; the hidden loss was probably the appearance of an additional powerful enemy in the future.
"We have to talk about the future in the future."
"Without the precious resources in the secret realm, Yu Wentai, even if he can still achieve the golden elixir, the road to the golden elixir in the future will be very bumpy."
"On the contrary, after I obtained the inheritance of Five Elements Sanren, I have a huge advantage. Even if I bump into him again in the future, I will definitely be stronger than him!"
Zhang Yao was still very confident in his heart.
The path of cultivation is to strive for the lead step by step. Now that he is one step ahead of Yu Wentai, he will be sure to leave him behind forever in the future.
"call……"
Zhang Yao took a few deep breaths and calmed down before slowly turning around and leaving the main hall.
He is not prepared to deal with the magic weapon of the ancestor of the Three Mountains in the short term. If he wants to deal with it, he will have to wait until he achieves the golden elixir. Anyway, he is trapped in the small world and cannot escape.
The entire Five Elements Secret Realm has been completely sealed by him and cannot be entered or exited.
The many treasures scattered in various small worlds are also a huge wealth, but they are secondary to Zhang Yao.
Now, he was about to inspect his most important trophy.
"Crunch."
The ancient mahogany door was slowly pushed open, revealing the palace that had been covered in dust for two thousand years.
Zhang Yao walked slowly inside and saw that the furnishings in the palace were very simple. There was a pavilion on the left and right with three things placed respectively.
"After being dusted for thousands of years, it's time to activate it..."
Zhang Yao came to the left side of the pavilion, picked up an exquisite jade bottle and started to rub it.
Entering this palace, he knew what was stored inside. It was the most precious treasure in the entire secret realm and the cultivation materials prepared by the Five Elements Sanshi for future lives.
On the left side of the pavilion, there is a jade vase, a storage bracelet, and a brocade box.
The jade bottle contains a drop of the rare treasure 'Earth Milk'; the storage bracelet contains three sets of materials for refining the 'Qianyuan Solid Form Pill'; and the brocade box contains a 'Thunder Soul Crystal'.
"With these things, combined with the vigorous accumulation of the method of refining the formation into the body, the probability of achieving the golden elixir is 90%!"
Zhang Yao thought of this and smiled:
"As long as you stay in seclusion for decades, there will be no obstacles to reaching the realm of the golden elixir!"
The three treasures on the left are used to achieve the golden elixir, and the three treasures on the right are used after the golden elixir to practice magical powers and inscribe the formation.
These treasures are extremely precious, but they can only be most effective if they are combined with the formation of the secret cave, so Zhang Yao did not put them away in advance, but did not come to inspect them until he won the battle in the secret realm.
Not only him, but Yuwentai did not put away these treasures in advance because he never thought that he would lose control of this secret realm.
But in the end, he missed a move and even lost his predecessor's inheritance to Zhang Yao.
"Not bad, very good."
After Zhang Yao played with them one by one, he looked satisfied and turned around to leave the palace.
He returned to the meditation room of the Lord of the Cave Mansion and took out the sealed ball of soul energy, with a trace of regret in his eyes:
"Without the steps of blood sacrifice and soul melting, the quality will be inferior after all."
"But it is more than enough to build the 'Ten Thousand Souls' Formation', and the effect is definitely much better than the formation in Yuwentai Soul!"
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Yao sat down cross-legged, adjusted his energy, calmed down, and prepared to inscribe the last formation of the foundation building period.
…………
at the same time.
Underground in Prison Gate Mountain, outside the Secret Realm Gate.
Ancestor Zhenyang and others were silent, their faces ashen, and the atmosphere was dead, dull, and extremely depressing.
Suddenly:
"Swish!" "Swish!"
Two streams of light came through the sky and fell into the hands of Ancestor Zhenyang and Dugu Tianyi respectively.
The return of the magic weapon made the expressions of the two men finally relax a little. Although their brows were still furrowed, at least they no longer had dead faces.
Only the face of Sanshan Patriarch became increasingly ugly.
The three of them used the soul-leaving incarnation and the magic weapon to enter the secret realm. As a result, Zhenyang Patriarch and Dugu Tianyi both came back, but his Wanshan True Seal was lost in it.
"..."
The ancestor of Sanshan did not speak, his heart was bleeding.
What a huge loss it is to lose a powerful magic weapon passed down from our ancestors? Moreover, without the main battle magic weapon, his strength will be significantly reduced, which will bring a series of catastrophic consequences.
Strength is the right to speak. If he cannot find the Wanshan True Seal, then he will not be able to hold his head high in front of Zhenyang Patriarch and Dugu Tianyi. In the future, the Shanhe Sect's right to speak and the distribution of interests will also be weakened.
The world of immortality is so realistic and ruthless.
"...How about Yuwentai?"
The ancestor of Sanshan was silent for a long time, and then slowly spoke in a low tone.
"Ran."
Dugu Tian shook his head and sighed:
"This man is so cunning that he opened the entrance to the passage deep underground. Our consciousness was in the magic weapon at the time, and we couldn't stop him from escaping."
"But now he is also a lost dog, so there is nothing to worry about. On the contrary, it is the real Qingxu who occupies the secret realm who is our greatest enemy..."
Ancestor Zhenyang looked thoughtful:
"It seems that none of us are aware of some hidden truths."
"This Yuwentai and that Qingxu master are obviously from the Five Elements Sanren lineage. Eighty percent of them practice the "Wanhua Capital Tianzhen Sutra". They are extremely familiar with the secret realm and can even directly enter the core place."
"Looking at it now, Yuwentai may have really died once, so he used some method to take the body of the person who broke the realm."
"Yes, judging from the dispute between him and Master Qingxu, maybe his true self died in the hands of Master Qingxu. In this way, the mystery of the previous Tianbao Tower murder case can also be solved."
"Yes, Master Qingxu is probably the real culprit in the Tianbao Tower murder case. He just faked his death deliberately to mislead us. And before..."
The three of them discussed a few words, and in a few words, they clarified a lot of truth.
But the matter has come to this point, and it is meaningless to discuss these hindsight facts.
After more than a hundred years of hard planning and all kinds of efforts both overt and covert, they even started a war among the five sects and defeated the Haizong, but in the end nothing was gained.
I hate to press gold thread every year to make wedding clothes for others.
If they really wanted to draw water from a bamboo basket, it would be all in vain, but their losses were still indescribably huge, and they had even shaken the foundation of their rule.
"When I go back this time, I don't know how to face the next situation..."
Ancestor Zhenyang let out a long sigh, and looked at each other with Ancestor Sanshan and Dugutian, and both saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.
As the ancestors of Jindan, their ability to accept is still very strong and they have not been beaten down by the cruel reality.
But the problem is:
Many foundation-building cultivators died in the previous sea-turning battle, and with the natural disaster purge in the secret realm, nearly 300 foundation-building cultivators died, which can be regarded as a huge catastrophe.
The number of foundation-building monks in the entire territory of Dali is almost ten to nine, which is equivalent to the end of the generation.
The series of turmoil and disturbances caused by this caused even several Golden Core monks such as Ancestor Zhenyang to feel extremely troublesome and headache.
"If it weren't for the fact that there are still a few real people in the sect who have perfected the foundation, I would be in despair."
Ancestor Zhenyang sighed heavily.
Among the foundation-building masters who did not enter the secret realm this time, except for the few who came from poor backgrounds, had no background, and were unwilling to join a group, there were only some veteran masters who had practiced to the perfection of foundation-building and were dedicated to preparing for the attack on the golden elixir realm.
And these foundation-building masters who are expected to impact the golden elixir are to some extent also the hope of all the major golden elixir forces and are the real mainstay.
"...What about Master Qingxu in the secret realm?"
The ancestor of Sanshan couldn't help but said:
"My Wanshan True Seal is still within the secret realm!"
"What can be done?"
Dugu Tian asked in reply:
"Then Master Qingxu and Yu Wentai are on the same path. I'm afraid they won't come out even if they are beaten to death if they don't break through the golden elixir in the secret realm."
"But he seems to be a practitioner of the Wanhuadu Tianzhen Sutra. Once he reaches the realm of golden elixir, can we still defeat him?"
This sentence of soul torture directly choked the ancestor of Sanshan and became speechless.
In fact, he didn't understand this truth, but he still refused to give up in his heart and still remembered his ancestral magic weapon.
"How about this..."
Ancestor Zhenyang suddenly opened his mouth and suggested:
"The three of us will take turns staying here in the next few days until Master Qingxu comes out..."
