Zhao Yang's Divine Sense had the greatest ability to read everything around him. Its second most powerful function was to ignore any formation, seeing through its logic. In his interpretation, this formation was indeed a deadlock, utterly unsolvable!
"It’s the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation." Zhao Yang felt an ominous premonition and shared what he knew with Song Baliang.
"On par with the Five Elements Formation, the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation is an ultimate trap that can be used indefinitely. Depending on one's cultivation level, it can be set up with varying degrees of power, capable of hunting down anyone one rank higher!" Song Baliang recognized the formation and explained.
At that moment, both Zhao Yang and Song Baliang were trapped within the formation. The sounds of shouting echoed all around them, manifesting various scenes, most of which were battles. However, their only commonality was that they were all within the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation.
Song Baliang chuckled dryly twice, his face turning a deep shade of purple, looking extremely unwell as he muttered to himself, "How foolish must one be to be lured into such an obvious formation?"
As a master craftsman, Song Baliang had to understand formations to engrave them into Dao Artifacts; otherwise, he couldn't create the internal mechanisms for their operation. He had certainly heard of such a famous formation but had never set one up himself. He had only seen simple diagrams of the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation in miscellaneous texts on crafting.
"It’s not just you!" Zhao Yang retorted. He had already thought of many ways out, but none could turn the tide in their favor.
The reason for their predicament was that they both felt invincible; it was the result of arrogance. They had initially intended to toy with others but now found themselves as the ones being toyed with!
Even if he used his trump card and activated the Seventy-Third Transformation, what good would it do to turn Shiyunsheng into a sheep? Shiyunsheng was outside the formation; he couldn't escape to kill Shiyunsheng. Moreover, even if he did manage to kill Shiyunsheng, it wouldn’t change anything—he still wouldn’t be able to leave the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation!
Thunder roared within the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation as countless scenes flashed by—each depicting prodigies who had once been hunted by this formation. Almost every one of them was a remarkable figure in their own right, some even possessing their own Innate Divine Abilities. Yet under the might of the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation, everything turned to nothingness; dust returned to dust.
The more dire the situation became, the calmer Zhao Yang remained; crises would not throw him off balance.
"Junior Brother, I know you must have a way out. Hurry up and get us out of this cursed place! I've heard that the attacks from the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation are endless, each wave stronger than the last. If this continues, we won’t last long here," Song Baliang expressed his unwavering trust in Zhao Yang, even willing to entrust his life to him because he knew Zhao Yang was intelligent.
However, he did not realize that for some unsolvable deadlocks, no matter how clever one was, there would be no answers.
Zhao Yang replied weakly, "I’ve searched through One Hundred Thousand Volumes and haven’t found a single scroll that can unravel the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation. It’s an ultimate trap—unless we wait until its energy is completely exhausted."
"Huh? Have you ever seen a formation that fails to trap its enemies when it runs out of energy?" Song Baliang questioned this notion while also grasping Zhao Yang's implication. "Are we going to die?"
Zhao Yang nodded, not offering any rebuttal.
Soon, the first wave of attacks arrived as expected. Countless powerful Void Blue Blades shot from the boundary of the formation into the array. Just from this first wave, both Zhao Yang and Song Baliang were immediately gravely injured, as these Void Blue Blades were indiscriminate attacks, coming in a dense barrage that left no room for evasion!
Following closely was the second wave of attacks, with countless giant swords slashing down from the sky, each imbued with overwhelming sword energy. From the intensity of the sword energy, Zhao Yang could tell that this energy was comparable to the strongest strike from the Divine Transformation Stage! Such an attack could not be blocked even by practitioners of Body Refinement, let alone when it was an indiscriminate assault!
Without any hesitation or reservation, Zhao Yang and Song Baliang unleashed their strongest Body Refinement techniques. One radiated golden light while the other had Crimson Gold Characters appearing around him. The giant swords grazed their bodies, slicing through their skin and producing a sound like metal clashing.
Although they had the strongest protective treasures of Body Refinement surrounding them, they still suffered severe injuries. Song Baliang, who possessed the Vajra Body and had been practicing Body Refinement for nearly twenty years, along with his Dao Treasure Golden Armor Battle Suit, still found his skin cut open by the giant swords. He looked despondent and said, "It seems we really are in trouble. Usually, those in trouble die quickly; one hit is often enough. Now that our Divine Power is exhausted, it’s truly dire."
Zhao Yang was not faring any better. Although his body had been cleansed by the residual effects of the Supreme Ultimate Nine Turns Golden Elixir and he had a mysterious Body Refinement Technique from a fragment of Imperial Scripture that nearly prevented any physical damage, he truly felt powerless against these giant swords as they slashed across him.
"Am I really going to die? This is too soon." He felt a deep frustration welling up inside him as he realized he hadn’t even begun to fight before being subdued by his opponent.
Quickly, the third wave of attacks came crashing down. This time it was a dire situation; endless ice arrows and fire arrows shot in from all directions, all indiscriminate attacks. Powerful bolts pierced Zhao Yang and Song Baliang's bodies. Zhao Yang had an affinity for Fire Path and possessed Water Avoidance Technique, allowing him to resist some of the ice and fire assaults. However, Song Baliang could not withstand it; he soon appeared weary and in great pain from the relentless onslaught.
In his hand, Song Baliang clutched the Void Breaking Talisman given to them by Datong Zen Master before their departure, wanting to use it. However, he discovered that everything related to formations within the Extermination of Immortals and Demons Formation had become ineffective; naturally, this Void Breaking Talisman required a specific boundary-breaking formation to be effective.
"This won't work; I’ve already tried," Zhao Yang said with pale lips.
"The saying 'Pride invites loss; humility brings benefit' is indeed true. I initially thought this Shiyunsheng was just a fool; I never expected to fall into his hands," Song Baliang said dejectedly. Suddenly, as if realizing something, he pointed at Zhao Yang and exclaimed, "You bastard! Why did you provoke such a vicious person? I'm caught in your crossfire!"
Song Baliang's tone was filled with anger but stopped there; after all, he and Zhao Yang were Senior Brothers and close like brothers—he was merely venting his frustrations.
"I'm truly sorry about this, Senior Brother," Zhao Yang replied somewhat dejectedly as maintaining their strongest state consumed too much True Qi, even though he had an almost infinite cycle of True Qi.
"Don't mention it," Song Baliang replied in a daze from alternating bouts of cold and heat, mistakenly saying "no problem" instead of "you're welcome."
Outside the formation, with a vicious gaze and a keen interest, Shiyunsheng stood atop a pile of stones, watching the "caged performance." He praised, "Not bad, not bad. To have held on until this point is already comparable to the strongest geniuses. I have used all the treasures I collected over several years to maintain this formation, but obtaining your origins makes it worth the cost!"
At this moment, Zhao Yang was truly at his wit's end. He glared furiously at Shiyunsheng outside the formation. Suddenly, his Divine Sense rapidly condensed into an unstoppable spear of Divine Sense, which shot towards Shiyunsheng with great force. Shiyunsheng let out a loud scream, clutching his head as his roar shook the heavens.
After this attack, Zhao Yang became even more dispirited, his spirit teetering on the brink of collapse.
The Divine Sense Attack was a secret technique classified as one of the evil sect's methods—powerful and formidable. Many years ago, a mysterious sect in Zhongzhou rose to prominence, capturing many masters of Divine Sense research and creating an unparalleled Cultivation Method specifically for practicing Divine Sense Attack. Those who learned this method became the most outstanding geniuses of that era, rampaging through their enemies. However, they inadvertently killed the last descendant of an ancient sect, prompting many old-timers to emerge and surround this genius, ultimately snuffing out his life in its cradle.
From then on, Divine Sense Attack was classified as a Forbidden Technique; no one was allowed to learn it. Even if someone attempted to learn it, they could only do so through their own exploration. Those with excessively strong Divine Sense could only make simple attempts without posing a lethal threat to others.
Zhao Yang's Divine Sense had grown powerful enough to nearly kill Shiyunsheng! Yet it also came with tremendous side effects; his head throbbed painfully as if it were about to explode!
As Shiyunsheng rose, his body convulsed from severe trauma to his mind. Blood oozed from his ears and eyes, making him look quite miserable.
"I will shatter your corpse into a thousand pieces and devour your Spiritual Root, your Foundation Stage, and your Golden Core!" Shiyunsheng roared, dark energy swirling around him as it coalesced into a black spear radiating deathly energy, aimed directly at Zhao Yang's forehead!
"Die!"
