Chapter 1741 - Hidden Cards?
The Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation and its nine component killing formations had already stirred up an even more terrifying energy current. The power of the formations surged forth like floodwaters.
As far as the eye could see, everything between heaven and earth and throughout the surrounding area was completely enveloped in the power of these two grand formations.
There was nowhere to run!
But Su Yi didn’t want to run, nor did he attempt to dodge. He’d come here to crush the Church of All Spirits. Naturally, he had reason to be confident!
“Activate!” Su Yi’s sleeves billowed around him as he pointed the Sword of the Human Realm and tapped the air.
Boom!
Heaven and earth swayed.
Terrifying sword force swept outward.
A deathly silence descended upon the formerly collapsing skies. A hundred thousand feet of sky was under absolute suppression, and Su Yi stood at the center of it all.
The countless lightning spears blanketing the sky and descending froze in midair as if seized by an invisible hand. They couldn’t even budge.
Some of the lightning spears\' tips were less than a foot away from Su Yi. Were their power to burst forth, they could severely injure even an Immortal King! Yet now, despite being just one foot from their target, they couldn’t advance any further!
All of this happened in a flash. The skies descended into stillness, as if locked down.
Then, as Su Yi lowered the edge of his sword...
“Break!”
Bang bang bang!
Sword qi burst forth like a raging windstorm, sweeping out in all directions. The countless lightning spears shattered as if they were nothing. As that tyrannical sword force spread, it shattered heaven and earth and ruthlessly slammed into the Vast Emptiness Heaven-Sealing Formation powered by tens of thousands of yao cultivators.
It was just one strike, but it struck with unstoppable force, like a knife entering a block of tofu.
The Vast Emptiness Heaven-Sealing Formation instantly split, riddled with countless holes. Sword qi swept outward, and whole groups of yao cultivators exploded, offering no more resistance than paper window paneling. Striking, blood-red mist filled the churning, turbulent skies.
Desperate, agonized shrieks and bitter roars of despair resounded throughout the darkness of the night.
It was just one slash, but it was like a windstorm sweeping across heaven and earth, breaking the Vast Emptiness Heaven-Sealing Formation. Wherever his sword qi passed, thousands of cultivators died explosively on the spot!
One slash swept through the entire army!
This overwhelming, tyrannical scene left countless onlookers horrified.
But before everyone could respond, the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation maintained by three hundred Immortal Lords burst forth. Their terrifying power fused into one, sending a current of destructive power across heaven and earth.
Upon closer inspection, the terrifying flood of power was full of inscrutable, terrifying talisman markings that reflected unbelievable and apocalyptic visions. There were ghosts and gods weeping tears of blood, sinking stars, and falling moons. Heaven and earth collapsed, and mountains of corpses piled up. World-annihilating immortal lightning ran rampant, illuminating the nine heavens.
The ink-black night skies seemed to shatter and descend into upheaval. It was an apocalyptic vision of destruction.
This was the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation, the formation the Church of All Spirits used to defend their home turf!
There was no need to even question it. Any normal Immortal King trapped inside would die beyond a doubt!
Su Yi felt a faint, prickling pain on his skin, and oppressive force bore down on him. Yet his gaze was deep and distant. It didn’t so much as ripple with emotion. Instead of retreating, he chose to meet the formation’s power head-on.
Boom!
Su Yi\'s cultivation base burst forth like a raging tidal wave, and every last inch of his skin blazed with dazzling Dao Light.
From afar, it was like a beam of the light of a new day cleaving through the darkness, illuminating the night sky!
Clang!
As Su Yi’s slash burst forth, it surged with terrifying sword force even stronger than before, drawing upon the power of the surrounding area to manifest an enormous sword curtain.
Within the sword curtain, endless Laws of the Grand Dao interwove, and sword intent circulated. It seemed completely unshakable.
Boom!
The Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation’s onslaught of destructive power descended, slamming into Su Yi’s sword curtain and shaking it violently on impact.
The entire stretch of heaven and earth descended into destruction. Destructive power and sword qi swept outward with appalling, stinging divine radiance.
Everyone could barely open their eyes. Countless people were horrified.
“I won’t lie to everyone. This is my first time seeing the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation’s power since the sect leader placed it. It really is terrifying!” murmured an Immortal King.
He had to admit to himself that, were he the one trapped within the foundation, he’d have been doomed beyond a doubt.
“But Su Yi is no ordinary person. Don’t forget that within just the past six months, at least ten Immortal Kings have died beneath his sword, and that doesn’t even include those who disappeared in the Abyss of Dark Fog,” someone else whispered.
“Yes, but this time, he’s doomed beyond a doubt!” Wei Xun said with cold indifference.
As they conversed, a heaven-shaking, explosive impact resounded from the battlefield.
Bang!!
The sword curtain before Su Yi split. It ultimately couldn’t withstand the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation’s power.
The terrifying aftershock forced him back. Throughout his body, his vital energy rumbled and boomed as he slashed over a dozen times in rapid succession. Only then did he neutralize the formation’s terrifying onslaught.
But the fabric covering his left shoulder was in tatters and smeared with blood.
The wounds were superficial, but the sight nonetheless made the three hundred Immortal Lords’ spirits soar. Su Yi is indeed terrifying and heaven-defying, but now that he’s stuck in the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation, he’s no different from a beast in a cage!
“You actually injured me...” Su Yi was a bit stunned; he hadn’t expected this.
But his surprise was short-lived. His eyes were quickly cold and distant once more, and his gaze was sharp.
“Die! Die! Die!”
The Immortal Lords’ shouts resounded through the dome of heaven as they poured their full strength into the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation. A terrifying wave of destructive power surged toward Su Yi.
Su Yi snorted coldly. Instead of retreating, he advanced. Heaven and earth swayed beneath his feet, and his aura soared to new heights!
“Break!”
The Sword of the Human Realm swung through the air, severing mountains and seas. Nothing could stand in its way.
The descending current of destructive power instantly exploded and dispersed.
But that was merely the beginning.
As Su Yi shot ahead, streak after streak of sword qi connected heaven and earth. They were immeasurably bright and full of unstoppable power.
“Break!”
“Break!”
“Break!”
As one streak of sword qi after another ran rampant, the power of the formation descending from all sides broke as if it were made of rotten wood.
Meanwhile, Su Yi was already drawing ever closer to Celestial Palace Mountain!
“This...” Wei Xun and the other Immortal Kings watched from the mountain in a daze.
In the blink of an eye, Su Yi seemed to have transformed into a completely different person. His momentum was starkly different from before.
How terrifying was the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation? It could suppress and kill even late-stage Immortal Kings with ease!
Yet now, it seemed unable to contain Su Yi’s momentum!
The three-hundred-plus Immortal Lords were stunned. All of them poured everything they had into the formation and attacked Su Yi with all their might.
But in the end, they were nonetheless helpless against him!
He shone with dazzling radiance, like an unstoppable beam of light. The Sword of the Human Realm hummed in his grip, and sword rain filled the skies.
Every streak of sword qi was full of tyrannical, terrifying power.
This was the fiercest of head-on confrontations, but Su Yi’s offensive wasn’t suppressed. On the contrary, the force slammed into the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation, making it shake violently.
The three-hundred-plus Immortal Lords powering it felt the impact. Their blood and qi churned; all of them were enraged and alarmed.
If the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation was an ocean, then its tidal waves were enough to bury any Immortal King around. But Su Yi was different. He was like a mighty dragon overturning rivers and seas! He stirred the ocean so badly that it almost couldn’t take it!
“He really is far too terrifying. It’s no wonder that so many Immortal Kings have died at his hands recently.” A solemn look appeared on Wei Xun’s brow.
Rumor had it that Su Yi was an Immortal Lord capable of suppressing and killing Immortal Kings, but prior to this, Wei Xun had turned up his nose at such rumors. After all, he knew that Su Yi had relied on the Stele of Heaven’s Will to direct the Laws at the Seventh Gate of Heaven; he couldn’t have killed all those Immortal Kings otherwise. And after the Divine Hunt, Su Yi relied on that mysterious Combat Soul Puppet to kill those Immortal Kings!
Simply put, the way Wei Xun saw it, Su Yi had managed to kill Immortal Kings only by relying on external power and trump cards. Thus, although Wei Xun took Su Yi seriously, he was skeptical of Su Yi’s strength, and he wasn’t really all that concerned.
But now, Wei Xun realized he’d been wrong. Even relying purely on his own strength, Su Yi was strong enough to contend with the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation! This was simply appalling! Unheard of!
After all, not even Immortal Kings like them could have achieved this!
Suddenly, a startled cry rang out.
As Su Yi continued his attack, several of the Immortal Lords helping to power the formation couldn’t take it. The impact made them cough up blood, stagger, and fall to the ground!
This unexpected development left everyone present flabbergasted. Who could have imagined that an Immortal Lord like Su Yi could be strong enough to break through the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation’s restrictions?
Wei Xun’s expression darkened, and he ordered, “Qin Shi, take eight elders and assume command over the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation personally!”
“Got it!”
A solidly built man in black stepped forth—Qin Shi, ranked fifth among the ten chief libationers of the Church of All Spirits.
He immediately led eight Immortal King elders to direct the Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation. Each of them took over one of the nine sub-formations.
The formation’s power instantly soared. It was instantly more than twice as strong!
Su Yi’s offensive was instantly suppressed, and he was trapped on all sides, like duckweed assailed by turbulent seas!
Wei Xun and the others instantly felt reassured.
This was just their sect-protecting grand formation. If Su Yi couldn’t take it, what right did he have to brazenly proclaim that he’d crush the entire Church of All Spirits?
He was simply dreaming! He’d severely overestimated himself!
Ying Xiu watched from a long way away, more nervous than ever before.
“Relax. I’m sure the Immortal Sovereign has a killer weapon up his sleeves,” Kong Ye said solemnly.
Although he said this, in truth, he was incomparably nervous too. His heart was on tenterhooks.
The Nine Extremes Heaven-Executing Formation was just too terrifying!!
Kong Ye didn’t doubt that, were a peak Immortal King trapped inside instead, they’d have had almost no hope of turning the tides in their favor.
But Kong Ye was even more convinced that Su Yi had means of resolving this, because... he was the reincarnation of the Eternal Night Immortal Sovereign!
He’d dared to come all this way. How could a mere killing formation trap him?
And just as Kong Ye thought, a dense, terrifying aura soon surged around the "imperiled" Su Yi trapped within the formation!
