C244 Anti-eight Trigrams Array
Within the stone house, there was a sealed off space. The surroundings were pitch black, giving one the feeling of being surrounded by an endless black hole in the universe.
After Nie Zhen and the rest entered the stone house, the door closed and the last bit of light disappeared.
Although the stone house was surrounded by a strange darkness, Nie Zhen and the others could see the location of their fellow disciples.
"Hurry up and form the formation according to the plan. The Eight Trigrams Formation will be activated very soon!" Qin Wuyan shouted, and the disciples immediately followed yesterday's plan and formed two circles inside and outside. The inner circle consisted of Lu Dong, Jiang Yan, and Pei Qing, while the rest were outside, protecting the three in the outer circle.
"Brothers, if you feel that you can't hold on anymore, hurry up and tell us, don't force yourself …" "There's nothing to be embarrassed about!" In the inner circle, Lu Dong's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Senior Brother Lu, don't worry. If I can't handle it, I will be the first to exchange with you. I don't want to lose ten points because of some face!" Xiao Ding was on guard as he replied to Lu Dong's words.
The eight Duobao Sect disciples, at this moment, were incomparably united, for their common goal, and also for the honor of their sects.
Before long, the eight trigram formation inside the stone house was activated.
The top part of the stone house that was originally pitch black suddenly emitted a milky white light, following that, with the disciples as the center, the top part opened up like a lotus, and the eight "Lotus Leaves" opened up towards the eight directions, and the eight "Lotus Leaves" gradually formed into eight trigrams: "Qian, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Kun, Li, and Qi". The eight trigrams moved up and down above everyone's heads, and were faintly discernible, while the eight disciples were right in the middle of the Eight Trigrams.
"Fellow disciples, be careful!" It's here! " Qin Wuyan growled.
Everyone waited with alert. At the same time, the eight trigram formation rumbled like thunder. "Rumble …"
With a loud bang, the Eight Trigrams Formation was completely activated. The milky white light in the sky became even more intense as the spirit energy within the formation surged like a volcano about to erupt.
Nie Zhen felt a strong murderous intent from the Eight Trigram Formation, as if he was going to blast all the creatures inside into pieces.
Suddenly, a milky white light shot out of the eight trigram formation. It was as thick as an adult's arm. It shot towards Nie Zhen and the others who were below.
Nie Zhen frowned. He immediately took out the God Killing Sword and hacked it towards the milky white light!
"Bam!" The spiritual light was immediately dispersed by Nie Zhen, turning into milky white light.
"Be careful, this is the appetizer!" Nie Zhen said in a low voice. He naturally knew the power of the light from the first attack of the eight trigram formation. Although it was very strong, it was not a threat to Expert of the Heavenly Stage.
As if to confirm Nie Zhen's words, a scarlet ray of light surged within the Eight Trigrams Formation. Soon after, a scarlet ray of light descended from the sky, sweeping down from another direction.
Soong Dong'er's eyes focused as she used her red silk cloth. Instantly, the red silk cloth fluttered in the air and instantly appeared in front of her, blocking the attack of that scarlet ray of light.
Soon after, eight rays of light, red, yellow, green, cyan, cyan, cyan, blue, blue, and white all attacked Nie Zhen and the others from eight different directions. The frequency of their attacks also gradually increased.
Relying on the might of the God Killing Sword, Nie Zhen was the most valiant. Each of him withstood the attacks from three different directions, while Qin Wuyan and Soong Dong'er were unwilling to let them go. Each of them blocked two different places, while the weaker Xiao Ding and the two beside him blocked the attacks from one direction.
Everyone's defense was tight and orderly. Even with their formation, they were still able to last for the time it took four incense sticks to burn.
At this time, the eight trigram formation's spirit energy began to change. At every incense stick of time, although the attack power of the eight trigram formation had increased, it still hadn't changed much. But at the fifth incense stick of time, it seemed as if the eight trigram formation's power had suddenly increased by 20%!
Boom!" Soong Dong'er brandished her red silk cloth to block the attack, but because she had consumed too much energy, she spent four incense sticks of time to continuously activate the red silk cloth, causing her to consume most of the spiritual energy in her body. It was obvious that she was barely able to withstand the attack.
As expected, although the red silk satin finally managed to block the attack of the eight trigram formation, Soong Dong'er's complexion also became somewhat pale, and a faint bloody aura rose from her throat.
"Senior Sister Soong, don't force yourself. Let me do it!" Lu Dong, who was in the inner circle, clearly felt Soong Dong'er's condition and immediately reminded her.
Soong Dong'er hesitated for a moment before she nodded her head in agreement. After all, it was Nie Zhen's most important tactic to maintain the best condition for the people in the inner circle. Soong Dong'er did not dare to be negligent and did not want to be at a disadvantage due to her momentary bravado.
Immediately, Soong Dong'er nodded and gradually retreated back into the inner circle, replaced by Lu Dong.
Lu Dong growled. He had taken out the Judge's Brush in his hand a long time ago.
As for Soong Dong'er, who had retreated back to the inner circle, she now consumed a Spring-Returning Pill and a Great Void Pill. She quickly consumed them, striving to adjust her condition to its peak in the shortest time possible.
And at this time, outside of the stone house, the upper echelons of the three great sects were gathered here. Although only five incense sticks of time had passed, the nervousness in their hearts was even greater than in the first round.2
Because in the first round, they were only looking for Jade Token, and most of the time, their lives were not in danger, and those traps would at most cause some minor injuries.
However, this round was not the same. The eight trigram formation was a true attack. If any disciple could not withstand the might of the eight trigram formation and was eliminated, they would truly be severely injured.
"Zhuo Great Sect Master, what do you think the grades of those children will be this time?" Bing Tianya looked at Zhuo Bufan and asked.
Zhuo Bufan said lightly: "I guess... He could probably get 80 points this time... The strength of two disciples is still lacking. "
Zhuo Bufan's guesses were already very optimistic. In fact, in the past rounds, those who had scored eighty points were considered as good results. This time round, it was all because of the double insurance provided by Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan that Zhuo Bufan dared to predict things like this.
"Haha …" I expect we're eighty, too. " This time, Ice River Valley also had two of the most outstanding disciples.
"Everyone, don't be too complacent. If the results are beyond our expectations, wouldn't we be smacking our faces instead?" Lin Wuhui said coldly as he heard the conversation between the two.
They naturally knew that Lin Wuhui's current mood was very heavy. His Origin Sect only had one peak disciple, Shangguan Yu, and forget about his score of eighty points, being able to obtain sixty points was already not bad. In this kind of competition, the difference between a top disciple, was almost equal to three to four ordinary disciples.
"Heh heh... If you do not set your goal higher, the disciples under you will not do their best. "
"Sect Master Lin, I'm not talking about you. You should learn from us and have some confidence in your disciples."
The two of them sang the same tune, causing Lin Wuhui to want to punch their faces.
While the few great Senior Leader of the Sect s were discussing, a full seven incense sticks of time had passed. In the stone hut where the Duobao Sect disciples were at, the weakest side of their cultivation was already extremely difficult for them, and although he and Xiao Ding were working together to block one of the attacks, it was obvious that he was reaching his limit.
Pei Qing was the chief disciple and was much stronger than Bian Po. The moment he attacked, the pressure on Xiao Ding was greatly reduced. Pei Qing, Lu Dong and Xiao Ding worked together to block the attacks from the eight trigram formation.
At this moment, Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan were each defending against two attacks. Nie Zhen planned to gradually reduce the direction of attack he endured, otherwise, if he continued to block three attacks, once he retreated into the inner circle, the people in the inner circle would not be able to block three attacks at once. At that time, he would be overwhelmed and even cause chaos.
At this moment, Qin Wuyan was already struggling. Sweat could be seen on his forehead. Although he could still persevere, if he continued to persevere, it was very likely that he would not be able to endure until the ninth incense stick.
Nie Zhen immediately shouted to Qin Wuyan, "Senior Brother Qin, you go back to the inner circle first. Senior Jiang, you take Senior Brother Qin's place!"
Nie Zhen hurriedly said to him, "Senior Brother Qin, you should go back to the inner circle to rest first. When the ninth incense stick burns out, you can come out. The last two incense sticks' worth of power is the strongest, so we need you to act now."
Qin Wuyan immediately understood Nie Zhen's meaning and quickly exchanged places with Jiang Yan who was in the inner circle.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Nie Zhen also indicated that he would exchange it with Soong Dong'er from the inner circle. Soong Dong'er had already completely recovered her strength, and after exchanging places with Nie Zhen, she immediately went all out to block the attack of the Eight Trigrams Formation.
At this time, the attack of the eight trigram formation was already twice as strong as it was in the beginning. The outer circle disciples were no longer as relaxed as they were in the beginning.
At this time, Xiao Ding finally ran out of energy, so he quickly exchanged with the inner circle.
At this time, Nie Zhen, who was recovering his strength after consuming the pills in the inner circle, said to Qin Wuyan, "Senior Brother Qin, we should join as well. Now, there are only two incense sticks of time left, so there's no need for everyone to conserve their strength. Everyone, act now!"
Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan attacked at the same time, instantly reducing the crowd's pressure. Especially Nie Zhen, with the power of the God Killing Sword, he actually did not fear the attack of the Eight Trigrams Formation at all.
In the time it took for a single incense stick to burn, the Eight Trigram Formation's might once again increased to a new level. On its original foundation, it had actually increased another fold!
Moreover, at the same time as they attacked, they were actually accumulating spiritual energy in the center, as if they were preparing some big move. The milky white light was like a flood dragon as it prepared to charge towards Nie Zhen and the others.
"Fellow disciples, this is your last strike!" Farewell Strike! " Nie Zhen looked at the milky-white flood dragon that was about to roar and charge towards him. At the same time, he formed a Farewell Strike seal with one hand.
Boom!" Soong Dong'er brandished her red silk cloth to block the attack, but because she had consumed too much energy, she spent four incense sticks of time to continuously activate the red silk cloth, causing her to consume most of the spiritual energy in her body. It was obvious that she was barely able to withstand the attack.
An astonishing explosion resounded through the entire stone house. Even those outside could faintly see that the stone house was shaking. At the same time, the second round of the competition was over.
