Chapter 208: Five Elements Fatal Formation (2/2)
“Senior Sister, where do you think we will be able to reach this time? Will we be able to pass through Death Fantasy Ocean?” While chopping the weeds covering the road, Tian Xing asked Tian Xue who was behind him.
“This time, I have taken a Stability Pearl from master. I believe we will have some chances of passing through the fantasy ocean,” Thinking about the Stability Pearl on her, Tian Xue’s face had traces of confidence.
“Stability Pearl?! Senior Sister, you are so awesome. The Stability Pearl is master’s treasure. She was actually willing to gift it to you, master really loves you so much!” When she heard Tian Xue was holding onto the Stability Pearl, the junior sister, Tian Feng following behind them said enviously.
“It’s not mine. I have only borrowed it from master for the Death Forest training this time. Once we return, I still need to return it to master,” Tian Feng and Tian Ling had the same master as Tian Xue. She did not wish that because of this matter, it would cause them to misunderstand her master. So, Tian Xue explained.
“But master still truly dotes on you. If it was us, she would have never lent it to us,” Tian Ling said with jealousy.
“Let’s not talk about this. Everyone be extra cautious. We have already entered the 1000 kilometer mark. In another 1000 kilometeres, we will be entering the Death Swamp. The demonic beasts there will be at grade six, comparable to Foundation Establishment late stage cultivators,” Tian Xue did not wish to continue discussing the topic. So, she changed the topic to something more relevant.
“Senior Sister, there is no need to be so nervous. We have already entered three times! Even if we were to come across a grade six demonic beast, with us around, it’s sufficient to dispose of a grade six demonic beast easily,” Tian Xing said disapprovingly.
“Don’t be too complacent. If it was only one or two, of course there is no need for us to worry, but if a group of grade six demonic beasts appear, which one of us would be able to resist them?!” Tian Xue said solemnly.
“Er…This…” When mentioning demonic beast groups, Tian Xing shut his mouth. Previously, they had seen it with their own eyes when a Golden Core Realm cultivator had been dragged away by a group of grade five flying-type demonic beasts while alive. Ultimately, without a choice, the cultivator detonated his own golden core. Recalling that mournful scene, Tian Xing still had some lingering fears.
———————————————————————————————————————
West of the Tianshan Sect disciples, a few kilometers away from them, the Shushan Sect disciples were fighting with a huge python. Two of them had suffered severe injuries and were leaning on a big tree.
“Senior Brother Wuling, this python’s skin is too tough. We are unable to pierce through,” Wu Xuan’s Qi and blood was already rummaging in his body. His hand held his long sword as he spoke while panting.
“This python is a grade six demonic beast. In addition, with the Qi armor protecting its body, normal attacks will not be able to break through its defense. Everyone, get into formation: Five Elements Fatal Formation!” Jian Wuling also knew that it was pointless to continue fighting like that. When he saw that there were still five people battling, including him, he quickly called out to everyone.
“Sure! Five Elements Fatal Formation!” When the other four heard Jian Wuling’s words, they shouted. They stationed themselves on the basis of the five elements in Chinese philosophy, each person at a corner, adopting the position to utilize the Five Elements Fatal Formation. Five Elements Fatal Formation relied on the five elements of the Earth. It uses the formation to channel the five elements’ power. This formation was an attack formation. The five casters would each use one of the elements of the five elements to attack.
“Bang! Awoohh! Awoohh!” The five of them completed the formation, and each of them used their own elements and struck out. They attacked using the five elements, consisting of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The dull-red Qi armor on the python immediately shattered. The python belonged to a fire-type demonic beast. After having been struck by the attack from the water element on its head, it immediately cried out in pain and anger.
“Wu Hen! Attack him!” When Wu Ling saw the effectiveness of water element attacks, he shouted at Wu Hen.
“Awoohh! Awoohh!” Sure enough, Wu Hen utilized the water element to attack the python, causing it to scream in misery again.
“Not good, it wants to escape. Stop him!” Having paid such a huge price themselves and having finally reversed the situation, they were not willing to let it escape. Wu Xuan shouted, without the slightest hesitation, as he jumped on the back of the python.
