novelSky Dome Dragon Formation, Activate!
| ← Ch.1301 | Ch.1303 → |
The two old men at the side immediately moved upon hearing the order, charging at Xiao Chen. With the Battle Armor protecting them, they did not feel any fear.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly as the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared in his hand."Let's see how hard your tortoiseshell is!"
Xiao Chen did not even bother looking at these two old men. He stepped forward without drawing his saber out of its sheath, holding it with his right hand. Then, he casually thrust it forward. Despite attacking later, he arrived first, easily breaking the other party's attack and sending him flying back.
Then, like a juggling act, the Lunar Shadow Saber leaped about to his left hand before sweeping across.
"Boom!" The black-haired old man wearing the Black Tortoise Battle Armor fell to the ground.
Using half his Primordial Energy, Xiao Chen overwhelmed the two old men, the disparity in strength like mud and clouds.
Qin Hu did not give Xiao Chen any time to rest, charging over from the front with a startling aura.
Loud booms resounded, shaking space. Xiao Chen met Qin Hu, move after move, with his bare hands. Not only did Xiao Chen not back up, but he even forced the panting Qin Hu back.
After breaking about ten moves, Xiao Chen already held the upper hand stably. He landed a palm strike and knocked Qin Hu into the air.
The dazzling and complicated motions were all completed within one breath of time. Even when fighting against three, Xiao Chen still easily sent the three flying.
Of course, the three had Battle Armor protecting them and were not injured. However, they could not avoid the pain from the heavy strikes on their bodies.
"Can't beat you to death? Let me see whether that is true or not!"
As Xiao Chen spoke, he flew up and heavily stomped on Qin Hu, who was trying to get back on his feet, ruthlessly pushing him back down.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Sonic booms rang out. Bai Yu and the white-haired old man, who were knocked back earlier, charged over with a flash, wanting to save Qin Hu.
However, Xiao Chen did not even look at them, not even drawing his Lunar Shadow Saber. He merely released it and used a strong saber intent and Primordial Energy to knock the white-haired old man back.
This attack was very sharp and strong and very scary.
The Lunar Shadow Saber looked like it was magical, flying to Xiao Chen's other hand. Then, he grabbed the handle and swung it down heavily.
This startled Bai Yu, who was about to strike Xiao Chen. He reacted quickly, clapping his hands together and clamping down on the Lunar Shadow Saber's scabbard.
The ground cracked in a spiderweb pattern."Plop!" Bai Yu, who caught the saber, was forced to one knee by the momentum of the saber before he could even think.
Bai Yu's face reddened. Even though he already dropped to one knee, he still found it incredibly strenuous. He felt like he could not hold on to Xiao Chen's Lunar Shadow Saber for long.
Suddenly, Bai Yu felt the force vanish from the scabbard. Thinking that Xiao Chen ran out of energy, he rejoiced, quickly let go, and moved back.
However, the instant Bai Yu let go, an even stronger force came from the saber scabbard. The force changed completely at will.
The saber scabbard whipped down on Bai Yu, who was attempting to leave. He screamed in pain and rolled on the floor.
On the other side, the white-haired old man charged over again. However, he saw the Lunar Shadow Saber spinning around, pressing over relentlessly. This sight startled him into going pale and quickly retreating.
Xiao Chen, who did not even look away, beat up these two old men into a sorry state with just a few moves, inflicting so much pain that they could not charge over.
As Xiao Chen dealt with the two old men with his two hands, his foot did not relax, continuously stomping on Qin Hu.
With every stomp, a loud rumble rang out nonstop. If there were no restrictions on the building, it would have already shattered long ago.
Blood leaked out of the corner of Qin Hu's lips. He felt so much pain that his complexion turned purple.
Although Qin Hu did not receive any fatal blows, Xiao Chen's stomping on him not only humiliated him but also inflicted unbearable pain.
The servant, who had hidden far away, was completely confused when he saw this scene. Originally, he was worried for Xiao Chen. Now, he felt some sympathy for these three old men; they were too pitiful!
If not for their Battle Armor, they might be able to die a painless death.
"Xiao Chen, let me up!" Qin Hu begged Xiao Chen. He was in pain and unable to get up, already in a sorry state.
Xiao Chen showed no emotion on his face as he retorted coldly, "Didn't you say that you would stand there and let me hit you? That no matter how I hit you, you would not die? Why are you begging me now? Who gave you the confidence to be so arrogant, to try and frame me?!
"Who gave you the authority to torture Old Yun and put him in prison?!
"Now you want to beg for mercy? You can dream on!"
The pain made Qin Hu somewhat crazy in despair. No matter what he did, he could not get up. He roared hoarsely, "Show no fear! Activate the Sky Dome Dragon Formation and kill him!"
The Sky Dome Dragon Formation was a formation that could kill a Martial Emperor, the greatest weapon of the Sky Dome Palace.
Back then, the Sky Dome Palace had been careless when dealing with Yao Manlan and Feng Ziyi, mostly because of the presence of this formation. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful a formation was, it required someone to operate it. Due to Yao Manlan's Charm Techniques, the Sky Dome Dragon Formation had not been activated in time, causing the Sky Dome Palace to fall quickly.
Hence, it could be said that the Sky Dome Palace's success and failure were both due to this formation. Now that Qin Hu was facing this strong Xiao Chen, he no longer cared about anything else, preparing to use the Sky Dome Dragon Formation to kill Xiao Chen.
The faces of Bai Yu and the old man in the Black Tortoise Battle Armor sank as they quickly flew out of the great hall in obedience to their orders.
Although Qin Hu was in a sorry state and in pain, he was not in danger of dying. So the two were not worried.
"Xiao Chen, you're dead. You are dead now. No matter how much you humiliate me now, once the Sky Dome Dragon Formation is activated, you will not be able to survive, " Qin Hu said through gritted teeth as he glared at Xiao Chen in anger.
"My death is not up to you."
Xiao Chen prepared to leave this place. If the formation was activated, it would be problematic to be trapped in there.
The formation could not remain activated forever. As long as these three old men remained in the Sky Dome Palace, Xiao Chen would be able to deal with them and force them to release Old Yun. As long as Old Yun was safe, Xiao Chen could not be bothered with anything else.
No matter what trouble the people of the Three Holy Lands caused, he would not care at all.
Xiao Chen stomped heavily. Then, without drawing his saber, he struck Qin Hu's chest with the tip of the scabbard, causing Qin Hu so much pain that he nearly fainted.
With a casual kick, Xiao Chen sent Qin Hu flying away. Then, his figure flashed and appeared outside the great hall.
Suddenly, he noticed that something was wrong. Dark clouds churned so low that it looked like the sky would fall at any moment. It felt like he could touch the clouds just by stretching out his hand. Killing Qi spread everywhere like a storm was arriving.
"The formation is already activated?" Xiao Chen muttered as he landed on the roof of the great hall. It looks like they had planned this from the moment I entered the Sky Dome Palace.
This is going to be rather problematic. I will have to spend some time if I want to leave. That's fine as well. I can use this opportunity to take a good look at this Sky Dome Dragon Formation, to see what is so incredible about it.
In the future, when I face similar formations, I will not lack confidence in dealing with them. Consider this as gaining experience.
Soon, Xiao Chen recovered his mental state, becoming calm again.
"Kill!"
The word "kill" resounded in the air, earsplitting, striking the mind and making one feel like one's soul was shaking.
A dragon roar resounded. Suddenly, a dragon head peeked out from the dark clouds in the sky. It glared with its large eyes and opened its mouth, quickly launching itself at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, dodging this attack. The dragon head retreated, and then a dragon claw flew in an unpredictable path at him.
Xiao Chen turned around and gently swung the saber scabbard, blocking this dragon claw.
A loud report rang out, and Xiao Chen's arm went numb. He thought to himself, This force is very strong, no weaker than a Third Heaven Martial Emperor's.
The ferocious dragon hid in the thick clouds, showing only its head but not its tail. It launched attack after attack in a completely unpredictable fashion.
Furthermore, the dragon struck very quickly, occupying Xiao Chen. It looked like Xiao Chen was in somewhat of a dangerous situation.
The hidden white-haired old man from the Black Tortoise Holy Master's bloodline felt that the time was right and asked, "Old Brother Qin, we can get Bai Yu to attack already, right?!"
The purple-faced Qin Yu had rushed over and was now beside the white-haired old man. He nodded and said, "He is already occupied by the Sky Dome Dragon soul. It is time to make our move. For being so stubborn, he will know the consequences of offending the Three Holy Lands this time!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the formation that covered the entire Sky Dome Palace flickered. A thousand pillars of light soared into the air as Spiritual Energy quickly gathered.
Each pillar of light hid a person. The pillars of light stopped at the ground, gathering into a huge dragon. Each part of the huge dragon connected to a building of the Sky Dome Palace.
The entire Sky Dome Palace looked like it turned into a huge live dragon with Bai Yu, the relative of the Vermilion Bird Holy Master, standing on the dragon's head.
Bai Yu glanced coldly at Xiao Chen, who was currently occupied with the ferocious dragon in the sky."Martial God Palace disciples, heed my orders. Sky Dome Dragon Formation, Two Dragons Crossing!"
Instantly, two ferocious dragons—one in the sky and the other on the ground—opened their jaws and bit down. This locked down the surroundings, cutting off all paths of escape and preventing Xiao Chen from dodging.
Since there is no way to dodge, the only way is to enter the dragon's mouth. Xiao Chen quickly came to a decision.
His figure flashed and dived into the mouth of the ferocious dragon on the ground, entering a mysterious pitch-black place.
"Good. He entered, " Qin Hu and the white-haired old man exclaimed, rejoicing together.
Up on the dragon head, the solemn Bai Yu said coldly, "Heed my orders. Sky Dome Dragon Soars, Coiling Dragon Chops!"
"Yes, sir!"
The one thousand cultivators from the Three Holy Lands, who were standing on the various parts of the dragon on the ground, answered in unison, displaying a shocking aura.
Instantly, the dragon on the ground coiled up and took the posture of soaring into the sky. All the buildings of the Sky Dome Palace moved together with the dragon, causing the ground within five hundred kilometers to tremble endlessly and rumble.
Xiao Chen, who was in that dark place, felt the space he was in twist continuously. He could not walk straight and could only spiral around, running continuously.
However, no matter how much he ran, he felt like he was just running in place.
"Chop!" Bai Yu shouted coldly. The weapon in his hand stabbed into the dragon's mouth. Immediately, the one thousand cultivators stabbed their weapons into the huge dragon's body as well.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Xiao Chen, who was already feeling very uncomfortable in the darkness, saw huge weapons descend from all directions, all pointed at him. He could not dodge at all, instantly getting pierced full of wounds.
This space confused the five senses. The direction twisted around. There was no way to dodge at all.
Bai Yu shouted coldly again, and the coiled Sky Dome Dragon straightened its body out. At the same time, the one thousand weapons were retracted simultaneously.
Blood promptly spurted out from every part of the huge dragon, splashing everywhere and looking exceptionally horrifying.
"Hahaha! I was merely letting you be arrogant. It is not that I fear you. This old man could have subdued you long ago, " Qin Hu shouted excitedly as he looked at the blood in the air with a sinister expression.
