“Indeed, it is the Prohibition Breaking Talisman bestowed by the Sect Master, personally crafted by the Tianshu Sect’s Grandmaster of Array Formation!”
Jing Yue nodded, “Although the Sect Master granted this talisman not because of this person, now that things have come to this, it can only be used on him.”
“However, we only have one fourth-tier Prohibition Breaking Talisman, relying solely on it is not safe.”
Having said that, he looked towards Zhang Zhiqi and Chen Fenghua, as well as the other Golden Core Cultivators from the two sects, “Fortunately, over the years I have also refined a few Prohibition Breaking Talismans. Though they are only third-tier, they can still be useful against such formations. Each of you will take one, enter the formation with me, and when we activate the four talismans together, we will surely break through his formation.”
After speaking, he distributed the three Spirit Talismans to the three of them.
Prohibition Breaking Talisman!
Although named a talisman, it was actually a product of the Array Formation. Or it could be said that Formation and Talisman were interconnected; both involved engraving the patterns of the Great Dao and mobilizing the power of heaven and earth. Once a certain level was reached, the two naturally merged seamlessly.
The Prohibition Breaking Talisman stemmed from this — a great invention of the Array Formation Talisman. Only a third-tier Formation Master could craft it. As its name suggests, it was meant to break through prohibitions, created by Formation Masters who extrapolated in reverse based on the principles of formations. Its purpose was to specifically disrupt the Yuan Spirit nodes and the heavenly and earthly formations, as well as talisman prohibitions.
It could be said to be the nemesis of formations.
After all, destruction is always simpler than construction. The “mighty and clever” destructive force of this Prohibition Breaking Talisman was something that most formations could not withstand.
Even if the Formation Master had exceptional skill and could promptly alter the formation to repair it, the impact caused by the Prohibition Breaking Talisman could still render the formation ineffective for a period of time.
That period of time was the gap, the gap to break the formation!
“Though the Prohibition Breaking Talisman can break a formation, it must still find the precise node to achieve the greatest effect.”
After allocating the three Prohibition Breaking Talismans, Jing Yue cast a cold glance at the crowd, “We still do not know what kind of formation this is, nor its capabilities, whether it’s a maze or an illusion array, a fierce or a killing array. To enter rashly may be unwise.”
With that, he fell silent, only watching the crowd’s reaction.
The crowd was silent. After a moment, a few people clenched their teeth and stepped forward, “One trains soldiers for a thousand days to use them for a moment. The disciple is willing to enter the formation and test its power.”
“Hmm!”
Jing Yue nodded, his expression unchanging, “Your going there is a great service. Act with caution and prioritize your safety.”
“Yes!”
A few of them gritted their teeth, saying no more, and accepted the dangerous mission.
They had no choice but to accept it. After all, they were Pseudo Core Cultivators. The third-tier internal pills they had refined were provided by the sect. When necessary, they were expected to sacrifice for the sect; otherwise, what the sect had given, it could also take away.
Now that the Prohibition Breaking Talismans were ready, and the scouts to probe the formation were in place.
All was ready, except for the opportunity.
Jing Yue, with his hands behind his back, looked towards Purple Cloud Mountain and said to Li Longpeng beside him, “Go and challenge them, see what they have to say.”
“Challenge?”
Li Longpeng was surprised and hesitant, but he didn’t dare to say more. He immediately rose into the air and came before Purple Cloud Mountain.
“Where is Shi Jian?”
His voice was loud, but it lacked conviction, clearly not expecting the other party to come out and respond to the challenge.
However…
“How exquisite and profound, refined and mysterious; every motion demonstrates the Tao, and silence is divine, easily grasped in the palm like pearls, bright in the sky like the full moon; upon success, one transcends the physical realm, and enters directly into the Great Luo Heaven!”
Amidst the chant, a person riding on a cloud emerged from Purple Cloud Mountain, indeed a true cultivator of Taoism!
“Shi Jian!”
Unexpectedly, the other party dared to come out and respond. Li Longpeng’s eyes narrowed, and behind him, Zhang Zhiqi was on the verge of exploding with rage, ready to act, but he was stopped by Jing Yue stepping in front of him, “This man has extraordinary skills, do not act rashly, wait and see how things unfold.”
Hearing this, Zhang Zhiqi could only clench his teeth and stand still.
Looking ahead, Li Longpeng was full of doubt and alarm, but ultimately as a Great Golden Core cultivator, he quickly regained his composure and asked coldly, “Are you Shi Jian?”
“Indeed, I am.”
Xu Yang, ungracious, sat on the cloud, coldly observing him and the others, “Who are you, and why have you come?”
Offended by his arrogance, Li Longpeng’s eyes grew cold, “I am Li Longpeng, the Supreme Elder of Tianshu Sect. We have come on account of your occupation of Purple Cloud Mountain and the use of curse spells to kill a cultivator from Green Jade Sect.”
“Oh?”
Xu Yang chuckled, then inquired, “What business is the matter of Green Jade Sect to Tianshu Sect?”
“The three sects of Liang Country have always been as close as branches on the same tree, sharing honor and disgrace!”
Li Longpeng waved his sleeves and spoke coldly, “Your skills are indeed formidable, but to usurp someone else’s Spirit Land in such a manner, and to employ your evil skills to take lives, isn’t that a bit too vicious and despicable?”
“Ha!”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang laughed again, “The Way of Cultivation venerates the strong, giving precedence to the accomplished. The Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit and the objects of creation, if you can occupy them, why can’t others?”
“You…!”
Li Longpeng was at a loss for words, about to retort.
“If you disagree, come and break the formation!”
But Xu Yang interrupted him coldly, “Break this formation and the curse spell will be lifted. If not, you had better return to your mountain and arrange your affairs.”
Having said that, he swept his horsetail whisk and looked back at Jing Yue and the others, eyes colliding with Jing Yue’s gaze.
“This formation is the Extinguish Heaven and Annihilate Earth Formation, capable of wielding Heavenly Thunder Earthly Fire. If you do not fear death, you are welcome to try to break it.”
He finished speaking, ignoring Jing Yue’s attitude and the reactions of the crowd, and returned to the mountain on his cloud.
“Supreme Elder!”
Seeing him return to the formation in this manner, Zhang Zhiqi clenched his teeth in hatred, his eyes filled with reluctance as he looked towards Jing Yue.
Jing Yue furrowed his brow, remaining silent, and after a long while issued the order with his hands behind his back, “Enter the formation from four sides, let’s see what he can do.”
“But… Yes!”
The four Pseudo Core cultivators, though uncertain, dared not speak further and immediately entered the formation.
However…
The moment the four flew into the formation, they saw Purple Cloud Mountain silent and tranquil, without a single ripple…
