Free Web NovelChapter 1545: Chapter 1545: Wei Duzheng Standing Invincible
The fact that others find the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation beyond solution does not mean Yun Xiao can only watch and lament. They believe that if the formation can be broken ahead of time, not only will Wei Duzheng’s scheme fail, but it would also save ten thousand vein demons, a monumental deed of merit.
Moreover, upon hearing about the might of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, everyone in Wanyao Mountain couldn’t help but worry for the three trapped within, especially Mountain Master Hou Tianlie.
Originally thinking that with the assistance of Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong, the peak Lingyun Realm Wei Duzheng posed no threat, who would have thought this guy would be so deranged?
Typical protective grand formations either isolate and fend off enemies for a while or, like the Xuanyin Hall back then, trap enemies within.
But the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation before them, carefully prepared by Wei Duzheng, surely isn’t just about isolating outsiders that simply.
"Let’s give it a try!"
At this point, Yun Xiao had no better plan. He could only do his utmost to break the formation, not only for Hou Tianlie and the others but also for the ten thousand vein demons who might die.
Swish!
Just as Yun Xiao was about to make a move, a sudden sound of tearing wind came from within the Spirit Fighting Commerce’s internal red array light shield.
Immediately, a red beam shot upward from somewhere, seemingly mixed with the wailing of a vein demon, and the beam, with an astonishing presence, barreled towards Lu Yanji.
It was clear that at this moment, Wei Duzheng finally ceased hiding the power of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation. It wasn’t merely about trapping people—it could unexpectedly launch attacks, catching enemies off guard.
The Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, woven from the blood energy of ten thousand vein demons, contained immense power. Even if Wei Duzheng was only a peak Lingyun Realm cultivator, the power of the red beam at this moment secretly alarmed Lu Yanji.
As a Heavenly Rank Advanced Meridian Refiner, Lu Yanji could clearly sense the red beam contained not only immense power but also a strange aura that sought to assimilate his blood energy.
Thus, Lu Yanji believed that if he were hit by that red beam, it would not just severely wound him but drain all his blood energy, leading to death.
In the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, for a moment, the Floating Life Realm peak expert Wei Duzheng seemed to become the supreme sovereign, basking in satisfaction under the power of the formation.
Swish!
When Lu Yanji narrowly evaded the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation’s beam, it didn’t disappear, but rather veered and angrily shot towards Wu Zhukong.
Even Lu Yanji dared not directly confront the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation’s beam, and Wu Zhukong, understanding his limits, had steadied somewhat since becoming Yun Xiao’s servant.
However, when Wu Zhukong also dodged the red beam, Hou Tianlie wasn’t so fortunate, being only in the late stage of the Lingyun Realm cultivation.
Under the rampage of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong could only fend for themselves, unable to assist Hou Tianlie, thereby leaving that powerful combat force no help to him.
Even in a one-on-one situation, Hou Tianlie couldn’t be Wei Duzheng’s opponent, especially within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
Hiss!
The next moment, as Hou Tianlie hurriedly dodged left, blood spurted from his right shoulder, blooming like a scarlet flower in the sky.
It was clear Hou Tianlie couldn’t dodge entirely, and the blood-red beam struck his right shoulder, inflicting superficial flesh wounds unlike ordinary ones.
Initially, Hou Tianlie wasn’t too concerned about this minor injury, but he didn’t see Wei Duzheng’s smug, expectant grin, as if awaiting something.
"Hmm? What’s happening?"
About two breaths later, Hou Tianlie’s expression turned grim, discovering that the area struck by the red beam wouldn’t cease bleeding.
"Haha, Hou Tianlie, even as the Mountain Master of Wanyao Mountain dealing with vein demons all your life, how could you understand the wonders of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation?"
The smug Wei Duzheng laughed heartily, being possibly the only one inside or outside the formation who understood it best.
The red beam, after striking an enemy, wasn’t just like ordinary power but held the formidable qualities of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
As previously mentioned, the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation is a terrifying array powered by the blood energy of ten thousand vein demons, and those hit by the red beam, human or demon, become part of its assimilating nourishment.
For instance, Hou Tianlie, with a shoulder wound that may seem superficial, found it exceedingly difficult to stop the bleeding.
Being inside the formation and under Wei Duzheng’s control, the formation’s aura constantly drew Hou Tianlie’s blood energy, preventing his seemingly small wound from healing until his blood ran dry.
From the moment Hou Tianlie was struck by the red beam, he, like the ten thousand Vein Demons, became the nourishment to activate this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
The name of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation contains the words "ten thousand demons," but it doesn’t necessarily mean exactly ten thousand Vein Demons are needed to activate the formation. It could be nine thousand or eleven thousand, with just a slight difference in power.
Adding a late-stage Lingyun Realm cultivator like Hou Tianlie doesn’t greatly enhance the power of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, but for Hou Tianlie himself, it’s a deadly matter.
"We can’t go on like this!"
Seeing Hou Tianlie’s face change dramatically after being struck, Lu Yanji, though unclear about the specifics, knew there was no time to lose.
Perhaps if they delayed any longer, he and Wu Zhukong, the two Heavenly Realm experts, could still hold on, but Hou Tianlie would be the first to be killed by this formation.
"Xiaowu, let’s attack Wei Duzheng’s main body together!"
Lu Yanji made a decisive decision, aware that this formation should be under Wei Duzheng’s control. As long as they could kill his main body, the so-called Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation would collapse on its own.
Once at Lianyun Mountain, Wu Zhukong wanted to slaughter the cultivators of the Meridian Refining Master Association, but now, under the guidance of Yun Xiao, the two had begun to fight side by side without any grudges.
In such circumstances, Lu Yanji needed a strong ally like Wu Zhukong, especially since they were within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, where he couldn’t be sure of handling Wei Duzheng alone.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two figures shot out like arrows, angrily attacking Wei Duzheng. Despite the presence of these two powerful Heavenly Realm experts, Wei Duzheng’s expression remained unchanged.
"Blood Barrier!"
Wei Duzheng’s voice rang out in a deep shout, and suddenly, some blood-red, semi-transparent mist appeared around him, completely enveloping his body.
Bam!
Bam!
Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong’s attacks were swift, but not swift enough to surpass the blood barrier that seemed to appear with a mere thought. After two loud booms, the two Heavenly Realm experts found they hadn’t harmed Wei Duzheng at all.
All this was due to the extremely strong defensive power of the blood barrier. Feeling the tingle in their hands from the rebound force, Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong couldn’t help but look extremely grim.
From that strike just now, Lu Yanji, a Heavenly Rank Advanced Soul Expert, realized that relying solely on his own power to break through Wei Duzheng’s turtle shell-like barrier was impossible in a short time.
Moreover, the blood-red semi-transparent barrier seemed to have a power that absorbed blood energy. A punch landed on it without causing any damage, and instead, it absorbed a bit of the two experts’ blood energy.
Seeing Wei Duzheng with a cold smile within the blood-red light shield, Lu Yanji had reason to believe that this guy might even want the two of them to attack the light shield, thus consuming their blood energy instead.
"This is troublesome!"
With just one strike, Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong exchanged a glance, seeing a trace of meaning in each other’s eyes.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
However, as Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong’s expressions grew grim, Wei Duzheng inside the light shield wasn’t idle. With a movement of his handprint, several red beams shot down from the sky, targeting the three powerful enemies.
At this moment within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, the three top experts of the Tenglong Continent all wore grim expressions because, even though they were three against one, they were being suppressed by Wei Duzheng, who was at the Peak of the Lingyun Realm.
Especially the Mountain Master of Demon Mountain, Hou Tianlie, who was already injured, his blood energy continuously being absorbed by some power. In just a few breaths, he was already in grave danger, struggling to protect himself.
In contrast, although Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong could barely dodge the beams, as time went on, the red beams increased, and the space they could dodge in became increasingly limited.
Most importantly, the beams of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation seemed endless, with no end in sight. If the situation continued this way, they would inevitably follow in Hou Tianlie’s footsteps.
These two knew that if they could kill Wei Duzheng, the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation would collapse on its own.
Unfortunately, the President of Spirit Fighting Commerce was within the blood-red light shield, and even if they occasionally got close to his main body, their attacks were in vain.
The situation within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation became extremely dire.
