C1705 The Sacrifice of Ding Rulan
In the sky above Xishan Continent, Yang Junxiu still maintained the gigantic White Tiger Appearance Mantra with the support of the Source of the Protection Array. She used it to intimidate the other experts from the other realms who were eyeing Xishan continent covetously.
Using his own immortal elemental energy to fuse with the power of thunder and lightning, a few blades of thunder appeared in space, slicing apart a few Devil Flame Skeleton and destroying them into nothingness.
Yang Junxiu's disdainful voice echoed in the starry sky, "Gongwei, are you playing with me?"
A slightly angry voice was heard, but it didn't sound like a response to Yang Junxiu's scorn.
"Damn it, this senior will suffer too much when fighting with her. The two of you will have to put in a lot of effort to deal with her!"
It seemed like the Venerable One had no intention of hiding his intentions from Yang Junxiu.
Yang Junxiu's face darkened. She seemed to understand their plans, but there was nothing she could do.
After Yang Junxiu had successfully forced Gong Ba, Xiangliu, and Zong Wuya to commit suicide, not only did they not dare to forcefully break the great defensive formation of the West Mountain Continent, these three people did not remain indifferent. Instead, after a period of time, one of them would make his move against Yang Junxiu.
The three of them did not stop to test out their strength. Instead, they used the true Great Luo Immortal Art each time. Unless they had the corresponding power, it would be very difficult to resolve this.
Because of this, Yang Junxiu had no choice but to mobilize the source energy of the protective array to help him dissolve the array.
Yang Junxiu originally thought that the three of them took turns to take action, intending to consume her own immortal elemental energy as well as the source energy of the protective array. At first, she felt disdain towards them.
However, Yang Junxiu soon discovered that although the three of them seemed to be engaged in a battle of attrition, each time they attacked, they left some time for Yang Junxiu to recover.
Yang Junxiu instantly realized that her guess was completely wrong. If she really wanted to use up all her energy to protect the array, she shouldn't have given her time to recover.
Their real purpose was not to consume her immortal elemental energy or to protect the source energy of the array, but to probe out something from her body.
It was at this moment that Yang Junxiu, as the current controller of the Great Protection Array of the West Mountain Continent, quickly sensed the attacks from Yu City, Liuhuo Valley, and Primary Magnetic Mountain.
As for the scene at Qu Wushan, her perception had been greatly affected.
Yang Junxiu instantly understood the intentions of the three Great Rudra Immortals in front of him. When they worked together to forcefully break the Western Mountain Protection Array, the best way was to go inside and cause damage to the Array.
The reason the three of them took turns to take action was to test if Yang Junxiu was weakened, and to verify the extent of the damage done to the foundation of the defensive array.
Once Yang Junxiu's strength was greatly reduced due to the damage done to the Western Mountain Protection Array, then it would be the time for the three Great Rudra Immortals to join hands and forcefully break the formation.
As for the words that the Demon Sovereign Gauze had just said, it was actually because he was the one being restricted the most by the Western Mountain Protection Formation. When the three of them took turns to attack, he naturally suffered the most.
Yang Junxiu had just figured out the crux of the matter, and was thinking about how to deal with it. Suddenly, her complexion changed. The White Tiger Dharma Idol occupying the sky curtain of thunder was about to disappear.
Yang Junxiu hurriedly used her spiritual will to search along the meridians in the formation. She could already sense that something had happened at the magnetic mountain in the southeast direction of the West Mountain Continent.
And the next time, if nothing unexpected happened, it should be the turn of the most powerful of the three Great Rudra Immortal Elders, the Eastern Emperor of the Golden Crow Immortal Realm …
On top of the magnetic mountain in the western mountain continent.
At this moment, not only had the protective barrier of the magnetic mountain been broken, the magnetic mountain looked as if it had first been cut in half by someone from top to bottom, and then a third of the mountain had been cut off.
Fortunately, Yan Qingxi and the other five female deities had joined hands. They had used all sorts of methods and techniques, and had paid an enormous price in order to kill Zhang Yue Ming in the end.
However, Yan Qingxi didn't feel the least bit happy at this moment, because while Yang Junqi was almost exhausted of most of her immortal elemental energy and receiving the lightning light, she had also received the grievous news from the northwest of the West Mountain Continent. Over ten of the Yang family's elite disciples had been killed, and Yang Junshan's eldest disciple, Su Changan, had perished!
"Is this a thorny matter?"
At some point in time, Princess Lanxuan had arrived by Yan Qingxi's side.
Yan Qingxi frowned slightly, but she quickly hid her displeasure. She handed over the communication jade slip and said, "Chang An has died."
She naturally knew who Su Changan was, but after sweeping through the contents of the jade slip with her divine sense, she did not say anything. This was because the information in the jade slip made her feel that something was amiss.
However, compared to the internal affairs of the Yang family, Princess Lanxuan valued the behavior of Yan Qingxi when he handed over the communication jade slip.
This showed that Yan Qingxi no longer regarded her as an "outsider" and had already given her quite a bit of trust.
Of course, there may have been circumstances that forced her to do so. The Yang Family still needed her, a Golden Immortal expert, to help them. Yan Qingxi had no choice but to put on this attitude, but Princess Lanxuan still felt a sense of 'joy'.
However, the contents of the jade slip were not good news. Naturally, Princess Lanxuan would not reveal his emotions.
"Do you want me to take a look?"
Even though Princess Lanxuan did not show his joy on the surface, she still subconsciously made the decision to be positive.
Princess Lanxuan had some understanding of the Yang family's background and strength. From the information on the jade slip, there was a high chance that the devil race's immortal realm expert was behind the deaths of so many of the Yang family's disciples in such a short period of time.
"I'll go!"
Yang Junqi had walked over at some point. Although her face was pale due to the large amount of lightning essence energy she had, her expression was one of determination.
As if she didn't see Yan Qingxi's shocked expression, Yang Junqi's voice was slow and firm, "This time it doesn't matter if it's a Demon Immortal or an Asura Race expert, my divine abilities will be able to restrain them to a great extent. What's more …"
Yang Junqi paused for a moment before continuing after a smile, "Besides, I need to personally settle the matter of Qin Zhang running away back then."
Yan Qingxi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she nodded her head.
The Yang family was already short of manpower, and even if she was not completely confident about Yang Junqi, he had no choice but to send her there. This was because there were other places with more serious situations that needed someone else to help them.
Looking at Yang Junqi's departing figure and how she had disappeared, Lanxuan said: "She seems a little different."
Yan Qingxi did not say anything, but she nodded her head slightly.
"The two of you are actually here? Are you discussing some hidden matter?"
Fairy Violet Garden had a serious expression on her face, making it impossible for anyone to challenge the mischievous tone in her voice.
However, Fairy Violet Garden only said a few words before turning serious. She said, "That girl's situation isn't too good. I think it's better for the two of you to go over and take a look."
Princess Lanxuan looked at Yan Qinxi and saw that his expression had greatly changed. His body flew in the direction of Ding Ru Lan.
"Lan, you …"
When Yan Qingxi saw Ding Rulan, she only opened her mouth to say half a sentence before not continuing.
Fairy Violet Garden's faint voice came from behind her, "Sigh, this child gave up his own life treasure in order to quickly reconstruct his immortal body and advance to the Golden Immortal Realm. Afterwards, in order to prevent his cultivation from being unstable, he changed the core of the formation into a robe and fused it with his body."
"What?" Yan Qingxi turned pale with fright.
"Earthen Bind Immortal?" Princess Lanxuan was a bit hesitant, but also a bit surprised as he spoke.
It had to be said that Zhang Yue Ming's fearsome demeanor left Ding Rulan no choice.
Under the circumstances, if he wanted to save the Magnetic Birth Mountain and the few female immortals' lives, the key to breaking through was to reconstruct Ding Rulan's Immortal Body and advance to a Golden Immortal.
However, the result of this was that the core of the residual formation was completely fused into her body. While stabilizing her cultivation in a short period of time, it also made it impossible for her to break free from the restraints of the magnetic mountain protection formation.
In other words, Ding Rulan had already become a part of the Primary Magnetic Mountain's defensive array, or to be more precise, the true spirit of the Primary Magnetic Mountain's protective array had fused with her.
This was also the reason why, even under the destruction of Zhang Yuanming, the defensive formation was still able to operate and not completely collapse.
However, it was precisely because of this that she was restricted by the magnetic mountain formation. From now on, it would be very difficult for her own cultivation to improve.1
This was the first time the Yang Immortal had encountered such a situation, but Princess Lanxuan was not unfamiliar with it. In fact, from what she knew, the four Star Constellation formation genie of the He Luo Star Palace was actually an existence similar to the Earth Confining Immortal.
Not only that, back then when Yang Junxiu and the wounded Yang Junxiu were returning from the West Mountain, they met with the obstruction of the He Luo Star Palace. The He Luo Star Palace's intention was to turn Yang Junshan into an Earth Bind Immortal to guard the newly established Fifth Star Constellation.
"Lan'er, is there any way to free you from the formation?" Yan Qingxi asked quickly.
Yan Qingxi shook his head and forced a smile, "Master, you don't have to worry. Your disciple is still unable to leave the magnetic field mountain's protective magical formation."
Yan Qingxi quickly asked, "Why?"
Ding Rulan raised her head to look at the Thunder Curtain above the western mountain continent and said, "Martial Aunt Xiuxiu still needs the Primary Magnetic Mountain's Array Source's support! If you want the entire Thunder Heavenly Canopy to not be affected too much, then your disciple can only temporarily combine his own cultivation with the formation so that the entire Western Mountain Continent's great defensive formation will not be affected too much. Otherwise, how would Martial Aunt Xiuxiu defend against the experts from the other realms? "
Yan Qingxi knew that things had already come to this and could only say with a trembling voice, "Child, you've gone through a lot. Don't worry. In the future, there might be a way to free you from the formation."
