Chapter 472: Taking Action
Translator: TransnEditor: Transn
Zhou Bao was not afraid of being discovered by the people who were hiding in the darkness from Divine Wind Palace. Even the Old Weirdo at the Lord of Heaven Realm would need the Air-frozen Bead to sustain himself in the surging tide, apart from everyone else.
Even if there were people hiding in the darkness from Divine Wind Palace, they were just there to observe the actions of the Old Weirdo at the Lord of Heaven Realm and they did not really bother about the others. Moreover, Zhou Bao's plan was not to kill the two Genuine Immortals but just to break up their defensive formation.
While Zhou Bao was taking cover in his hideout in the darkness, he saw the two Genuine Immortals taking out numerous materials for setting up the formation from a ring which was similar to the sacred relic belonging to the Black Wolf Tribe. He was so surprised that his mouth fell open.
”The Yin and Yang Dust Formation?” Upon seeing their method of setting the formation, Zhou Bao nearly gave himself away by shouting aloud. However, he quickly shook his head and murmured, ”No, it can't be the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, they don't have the complete formation map after all. It's a combination of the two elements—the Illusion Gate and Death Gate, in the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, and also it's a derivation of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation which was called the Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation!”
After observing them for some time, Zhou Bao finally figured out what kind of formation the two Genuine Immortals were setting up.
As a world-renowned formation, Yin and Yang Dust Formation had been passed down from antiquity times. However, only a handful of people had the capability of setting up a complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation. Since antiquity times, it was rumored that only the biggest sword school in the medieval period had been successful in setting up the complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation. Due to this, it flourished in the medieval period, but now it was merely an age-old myth.
However, human beings were smart. Although they were unable to set up a complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation due to various limitations, the formation map that was passed down had all the complete information. Over hundreds of thousands of years, many genii had created a dozen formations according to the complete formation map and under their own conditions and resources. Although these formations were no match for the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, they were quite powerful as well. The Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation was one of the most famous formations, and also one of that used up the most materials for its formations.
”Divine Wind Palace is really good at plotting schemes. Haha, if I were to undermine their plans this time, they will definitely pursue me to the ends of the world once they know I'm the culprit!” In the darkness, Zhou Bao quietly watched the two Genuine Immortals meticulously setting up the Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation. Waiting till they were done setting the formation and already departed from the area, Zhou Bao, with a malicious smile, began altering the formation they had just set up.
”Initially, I was not sure whether I would be able to set up the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. But since you have already built the Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation here, I can construct a complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation using your materials. Don't blame me—it's you who started it!” Zhou Bao laughed coldly. He was not afraid of being discovered by the people who were hiding in the darkness from Divine Wind Palace because he possessed the Origin of the Great Ways of the Azure Secret Area and he had a powerful spiritual mind. Furthermore, the Air-frozen Bead was able to stir up the surrounding Essential Qi Tide. They could be using their secret skill that was similar to the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to conceal their spirits while in hiding, but once they moved, they would be detected by Zhou Bao's spiritual mind. Therefore, Zhou Bao could take his time to do the alterations for the formation here.
It was showtime for Zhou Bao. The Two Genuine Immortals had previously set up the formation, but he altered the formation by adding and reducing some materials here and there. Five days later, when the two Genuine Immortals were done setting up the Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation, Zhou Bao too, had finished altering the formation. Presently, he just needed to put in an Innate Qi Talisman. Once he was done, he could launch the complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation. At that time, he would give those Genuine Immortals from Divine Wind Palace would a great surprise.
As soon as everything was done, the two Genuine Immortals came up beside the Old Weirdo at the Lord of Heaven Realm.
”Lord of Heaven Taicang, the Ying and Yang Illusionary Formation is finished. It is ready for your use at any time!”
”Do not be in rush!” Lord of Heaven Taicang narrowed his eyes as if he was thinking of something. ”These days, I'm always thinking that although it's a clever move for us to take action in the Azure Secret Area, it might attract the attention of those big sects if we were to act recklessly since the entrance of the Azure Secret Area has not been fully closed yet!”
”Don't worry! The Essential Qi Tide is in raging, therefore, no matter what we do, those sects will not be aware of our actions!” A Genuine Immortal laughed and added, ”What's more, even if they do, they can do nothing. The initiative is in our hands and if we successfully control the Azure Secret Area, they can do nothing even if they join forces to fight against us!”
”Well, that's true!” Lord of Heaven Taicang glanced at the two Genuine Immortals and nodded in agreement, saying, ”Launch the formation!”
”Yes!” The two Genuine Immortals replied. A little cyan pennant appeared in each of their hands simultaneously, and the four pennants had something in common with Zhou Bao's 49 pennants in the Sea Area. As the two waved the pennants, a layer of cyan colored fog rose from the nearby area. Without being affected by the Essential Qi Tide, it formed an egg-shaped cyan canopy and covered the entire Azure Towering Mountain.
”Well, it's action time!” Watching the cyan canopy rising up, with a smile, Zhou Bao put his Divine Awareness into the Origin of the Great Ways of the Azure Secret Area and gave notice to the Demonic Immortals who were scattered about in the Azure Spirit Sea.
After the cyan canopy took shape, a cloud of golden light shot out from Lord of Heaven Taicang's hand. It slowly changed and formed into a mysterious golden talisman. As it appeared, Zhou Bao felt that his Origin of the Great Ways acting up, it felt as if it was tugged by something.
”Using the copy of the Golden Book of Fate to pull the Origin of the Great Ways is really a good method. But it's a pity that you've used this style in Taiyuan Heaven previously. Well, everybody, time to start attacking now!”
As Zhou Bao gave the order in the Origin of the Great Ways, a roar emanated from the surging Azure Spirit Sea. Even the raging Essential Qi Tide in the Azure Secret Area failed to muffle the sound. At the same time, due to this unexpected roar, the entire Azure Heaven fell into total chaos.
The thunderous roar resounded through the sky. As massive torrent pelting down, it was ear-splitting.
Boom!
The Essential Qi Tide that had been raging in Azure Heaven for several months nearly ceased flowing because of this roar.
”What happened?”
”What is that sound?”
