Chapter 215: Spatial Passage
Not far from Linwu City’s Southern Region lies a large Mountain Valley known as Fortune Valley. Despite its name suggesting wealth, this Mountain Valley is actually a remote and impoverished area, lacking any features that embody "wealth." Compared to the surrounding Gorge mountains, it has nothing particularly special. However, this morning, it welcomed a group of extraordinary guests.
Dressed in black, armed guards stood vigilantly around the Mountain Valley, monitoring any sudden occurrences outside. In the open space of the Mountain Valley stood a massive formation, precisely arranged with five hundred individuals. Among these five hundred people, there were both men and women, but they all shared one common trait: they were all strong and vigorous young individuals.
These five hundred were none other than the two hundred selected through the Selection Trial by Thunder Temple and the three hundred disciples prepared by Thunder Temple itself. This group was set to be dispatched to the Nine Continents Mainland.
Standing at the center of the formation, Sun Zhe looked on with astonishment. He had not expected that the so-called spatial passage to the Nine Continents Mainland would be hidden within such an ordinary Mountain Valley. If he hadn’t been brought here by the higher-ups of Thunder Temple this morning, he would never have imagined that the passage he had been desperately seeking was right here.
In front of these five hundred individuals stood several high-ranking enforcers and elders from Thunder Temple, along with three others who held special status. It was clear that these three were responsible for overseeing the entry into the spatial passage.
On the left stood a man in a light gray robe, his white hair flowing in the wind. With his hands casually clasped behind his back, he scanned the crowd in the Mountain Valley with a faint gaze. An overwhelming aura emanated from him, causing unease among those present; he was none other than Xiang Yuanqiu, Master of East Hall from Thunder Temple.
On the right was a middle-aged man dressed in a purple-gold brocade robe. He had a prominent nose and narrow eyes but exuded no hint of malice; instead, he radiated an air of elegance and nobility. Standing quietly, his imposing presence rivaled that of Xiang Yuanqiu. Sun Zhe recognized him as Zheng Bin's Father, Master of the Western Hall from Thunder Temple's Six Halls.
Though both men were powerful, they still seemed somewhat inferior compared to the figure standing between them. Both Xiang Yuanqiu and Zheng Bin's Father displayed signs of caution towards this individual, clearly deferring to him in their actions.
This person was an elderly man well past seventy years old, shrouded in a black robe that exuded an eerie aura around him. It felt as if wailing spirits surrounded him like shadows in a dark cloud. What startled Sun Zhe most was seeing a black skull symbol manifesting on the elder's forehead.
The skull symbol represented recognition of the Law of Death, indicating that this elder practiced an exceptionally sinister form of death-related Law. His cultivation level even surpassed Xiang Yuanqiu's mastery over Thunder Law; Zheng Bin's Father also fell short in comparison. It was no wonder both men regarded this elder with trepidation.
"Elder Jiang, it is nearly noon now; should we not open the spatial passage?"
Xiang Yuanqiu surveyed his surroundings in Fortune Valley before turning to address the black-robed elder standing in their midst. This elder not only possessed formidable strength but also held a status that overshadowed theirs; he hailed from Earth Spirit Manor within Three Houses and was considered a powerful elder there.
While Thunder Temple's Six Halls were merely peripheral forces, Three Houses represented Thunder Temple's true elite power. The position of an influential elder within Three Houses indeed surpassed that of their Six Halls leader. Although Xiang Yuanqiu had some background himself, he dared not act overly proud in front of an influential elder from Earth Spirit Manor—especially one known for his bloodthirsty reputation.
"Then let Hall Master decide," came a cold voice from Elder Jiang as he slightly parted his lips. Anyone who heard it felt an involuntary chill run down their spine, as if they had plunged into an icy abyss. Despite his words, he showed no intention of even glancing up at them, clearly dismissing the matter at hand entirely.
Hearing that the old man in the black robe had no objections, Xiang Yuanqiu turned his gaze towards Zheng Bin's Father. Since this matter was to be handled by the three of them, he naturally needed to seek Zheng Bin's father's opinion.
"Since Elder Jiang has spoken, what else can I say... Since the series of tasks for the Selection Trial are all under your responsibility, you naturally understand their situation better. Just give the orders directly; Elder Jiang and I are mainly here to support you."
Zheng Bin's Father smiled slightly and casually spoke to Xiang Yuanqiu. He had some personal rapport with Xiang Yuanqiu, so he naturally gave him face.
"In that case, I won't be polite!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Yuanqiu's expression became serious. He immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly towards the front,
"All Elders, take your positions, raise the formation flags, and open the spatial passage!"
At the moment Xiang Yuanqiu's voice echoed, dozens of Black Figures flashed around him. In an instant, on a clearing in Mountain Valley, forty-nine individuals dressed in black appeared. Each of them possessed strength not below that of a Thunder Lord, clearly indicating that these forty-nine were all Elders from Thunder Temple.
The forty-nine Elders each took a position, and their arrangement formed an extremely profound formation. Many could see this, even Sun Zhe, who had never studied formations before, understood it. However, very few could comprehend the intricacies of this formation.
The forty-nine individuals remained silent. With a flip of their right hands, they simultaneously produced a formation flag. The flagpoles were golden while the flag surfaces were deep purple. Although they were just flags, each one emanated an astonishing power that could captivate souls. It was evident that each formation flag was a rare treasure worth its weight in gold, and together they could rival divine artifacts.
After taking out the formation flags, the forty-nine Elders did not idle; their internal spiritual power surged forth without reservation into the flags. The spiritual power contained within a Thunder Lord was immense, yet these flags absorbed it as if nothing was happening.
"Infuse all your spiritual power into the Purple Thunder Array Flags until they reach saturation."
Seeing everyone's expressions, Xiang Yuanqiu immediately commanded coldly without hesitation. This time, the opening of the spatial passage absolutely could not fail; after all, he was responsible for the entire series of events from start to finish. If anything went wrong, he would bear the brunt of the blame. This was also why he was so eager to open the spatial passage.
Upon hearing Xiang Yuanqiu's command, the forty-nine Elders immediately showed understanding. Their internal spiritual power transformed into energy storms that swept toward each formation flag. At this moment, everyone in Mountain Valley realized that these flags were indeed the renowned Purple Thunder Array Flags, one of Thunder Temple's most famous treasures.
Having absorbed nearly all of a Thunder Lord's spiritual power, these Purple Thunder Array Flags finally reached saturation status and began to emit dazzling light. Seeing this scene, those Elder of the Temple who had already turned pale immediately retreated backward, hastily distancing themselves from this area.
However, the Forty-Nine Purple Thunder Array Flags did not follow them; they remained suspended in half Void space. Each flag radiated an indescribable aura of power, and together they formed an enormous illusory formation in half Void space.
Originally, everyone had only heard that Purple Thunder Array Flags were one of Thunder Temple's treasures but had rarely witnessed their formidable nature. However, this time opening the spatial passage made them deeply understand the might of this Rare Treasure.
Forty-Nine Purple Thunder Array Flags soared into the air simultaneously, each releasing a dazzling brilliance. Within the formation at the center, terrifying energy storms surged, capable of claiming the lives of even Thunder Lord level experts, while Thunder Emperor level fighters would be severely injured and forced to retreat. This was the reason why the forty-nine Elder of the Temple were shocked and fled.
However, the power of the Purple Thunder Array Flag was not limited to this. As the flags' power gradually activated, Void inexplicably manifested purple lightning, enveloping everything in a shroud of purple thunder, transforming the entire space into a purple world.
At this moment, Xiang Yuanqiu, who had remained motionless until now, finally moved. He stepped forward with his right foot and instantly appeared in half Void. In his right hand, a Purple Thunder Array Flag materialized, but this flag was noticeably larger than the others; it was the Mother Flag of this set of Purple Thunder Array Flags.
Without hesitation, he infused Thunder Power into the Mother Flag, causing it to erupt with astonishing Purple Divine Radiance. Xiang Yuanqiu showed no surprise as he held the purple thunder flag, surrounded by lightning, resembling an Ancient Thunder God. He pointed the flag forward with his right hand, his eyes shining brightly as he coldly declared,
“Purple Thunder Break!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the massive formation formed by the Forty-Nine Purple Thunder Array Flags simultaneously activated, instantly transforming into a gigantic Purple Giant Axe dozens of feet in size, crashing down toward the direction indicated by Xiang Yuanqiu's flag.
With one swing of the axe, the surrounding space collapsed, and countless terrifying black holes emerged. The nearby onlookers immediately displayed expressions of horror and hurriedly retreated. At the same time, Zheng Bin's Father and Elder Jiang from the Earth Spirit Manor flashed their figures before the collapsing space and unleashed incredible Divine Ability to seal off that area.
As the dust settled and the black holes disappeared, all storms vanished without a trace, revealing an incredibly deep blue vortex before everyone.
At that moment, everyone understood that this blue vortex was a passageway into the Nine Continents Mainland.
