Chapter 2642
Sure enough, when the two of them discovered the flaw in the great formation, they sighed in their hearts. They wanted to, but they lacked the strength to, and could only slowly push the Gate of Life and Death. The giant ape's huge fist had already smashed the flag gate, creating a square black and white outline. The brilliant black and white brilliance was like a bright sword that pierced into the gray formation.
When the giant ape stretched out its hands, its tree-like fingers grabbed the spot where the black and white brilliance was!
"Open ~" The giant ape let out a deafening roar, but the entire formation shook again. With a rumbling sound, like a huge rock rolling down a slope, the flag gate was actually lifted out from the formation by the giant ape.
The black and white brilliance trembled at first, then suddenly rushed into the formation, blasting a huge passage out of the gray formation!
"Whoosh ~" A clear sound was heard, and a hurricane rushed into the passage. The black and white brilliance in the giant ape's hands disappeared, and the entrance of the flag gate that the sword cultivators had entered from before was revealed in front of the passage!
"Go ~" The giant ape raised its arms and pounded its chest a few times. With a roar, all the bird and beast cultivators rushed into the passage like flowing water, quickly disappearing.
The giant ape turned around coldly, and its red eyes flashed with mockery. Its gaze was aimed at Yuan Zhongyu!
Yuan Zhongyu stared at the giant ape's eyes without flinching, but he said to Liang Mingfu, "Let's rest for a while!"
"Yes, we'll listen to Fellow Yuan's instructions!"
Liang Mingfu replied and stopped circulating his magic power. Yuan Zhongyu watched as the giant ape turned around and left. He narrowed his eyes and muttered, "What we're thinking … Fellow Daoist Xiong might also be thinking the same thing!
How could he not know the flaw in the formation's entrance?
This formation is surrounded on all sides, even we don't know where the entrance is, and sword cultivators may not be able to find it easily! "
"I hope so …" Liang Mingfu nodded slightly. Just as he said a few words, the entire Soul Extinguishing Formation shook violently. This vibration originated from the flag gate that the giant ape had destroyed, and it spread in all directions …
"Oh, no!"
Yuan Zhongyu suddenly came to a realization and shouted, "Quick, the flaw of this flag gate has already affected the entire array, we …"
"I'll wait …" After that, Yuan Zhongyu didn't know what to say.
After all, he only knew how to activate the Gate of Life and Death. He didn't even know how to set up the Soul Extinguishing Array. How would he know how to withstand the vibrations of this array?
Just as Yuan Zhongyu had expected, the Earthly Annihilation Formation was the first to be affected. This was something that Xiong Huasong had personally presided over.
At this moment, within the array, the earth was shaking. The cracks were like the mouths of blood beasts, wantonly devouring the swordsmen. Even the giant sword that Mu Ting had transformed into was barely holding on. It would not be long before the Earth's Annihilation Array swallowed up all the swordsmen!
But at this moment, a bright light suddenly flashed from the top of the dark green earth, and a door appeared in the light. Wasn't it the entrance that Mu Ting and the others had flown in?
"Oh, no!"
Xiong Huasong was the first cultivator to realize that something was wrong. He glanced around and immediately knew what the problem was. Previously, he had set up a trap in mid-air outside the ten Magic Arrays, tricking the swordsmen into attacking. He wanted them to know that the entrance of the Magic Arrays was the most solid place. He wanted them to enter the Ten Major Annihilation Formations and fear the entrance of the flag gate, so that they wouldn't think of attacking from there. However, no matter how he thought about it, there were still too many flaws in this array. Even though he had taken every conceivable possibility into account, Cang Yuan still discovered this flaw that couldn't be concealed!
This flaw was fatal. Although Xiong Huasong had discovered it, he was actually in the same situation as Yuan Zhongyu. He couldn't fix it at all. He could only watch as Mu Ting and the other swordsmen discovered that the entrance had appeared. They were wild with joy as they commanded all the surviving swordsmen to rush out of the flag gate!
"Hmph!" Xiong Huasong withdrew his transcendence energy and looked coldly at the Earth's Annihilation Formation, which had returned to normal. The corner of his mouth curled up, and he sneered. "So what if you discovered the flaw in the flag gate?
Since you've entered my Black Sky Sect's Great Array, you're dead. I'd like to see how you 655,555 swordsmen will escape from this Ten Major Annihilation Formation! "
As he spoke, Xiong Huasong waved the flag in his hand. His figure disappeared, and the entire Magic Array returned to its original state before the swordsmen entered!
Even the Earth's Annihilation Formation, which Xiong Huasong presided over, couldn't stop Mu Ting from escaping. The other Magic Arrays were also helpless against the swordsmen's escape. One by one, the Illusory Sword Swordsmen led hundreds of thousands of swordsmen to escape from the Magic Arrays …
Of course, there were still exceptions!
Inside the Earth's Annihilation Formation, the endless yellow sand not only suppressed the swordsmen, but also obliterated all the swordsmen's sword light. Just as the snow-white brilliance pierced into the yellow sand like a sharp sword, revealing a path of survival, thousands of swordsmen were killed by the yellow sand. Not only were their corpses gone, even their flying swords were turned into ordinary iron!
Only the Illusory Sword Swordsmen and the high-level Bright Sword Swordsmen, led by Jian Li of the Liu Sword Sect, were still struggling!
"Flag Gate!"
Jian Li found a path of survival and was filled with regret. If he had known that the Flag Gate was a path of survival, even if he risked his life to escape, he wouldn't have ended up like this, which led to nearly half of the Liu Sword Sect's disciples being killed!
"Go!" Jian Li didn't hesitate to urge the giant sword. The sword light flashed in the yellow sand. Although it wasn't as smooth and agile as outside the Magic Array, the yellow sand still couldn't stop the giant sword from flying!
The other Illusory Swords also flew toward the Flag Gate!
Jian Li wanted to escape, but how could Cheng Ming of the Immortal Ascension Sect and Peng Die of the Xu Yan Sect allow him to do so?
Under the urging of his magic power, the yellow sand became more vigorous and the wind became stronger!
All the Bright Sword Swordsmen found it difficult to move in the yellow sand!
At this time, Jian Li had already flown to the Flag Gate. He only needed to urge his sword origin a little and he would be able to escape. However, in the face of this path of survival, he hesitated!
If he escaped, what would happen to the thousands of disciples?
Just as he hesitated, several first-grade Illusory Sword Swordsmen rushed out. Obviously, the path of survival was behind the Flag Gate, and it wasn't a trap set by the Taoist Sect's cultivators!
"Woo!" The wind howled like a tornado. The omnipresent yellow sand increased its strength and hit hundreds of second-grade Bright Sword Swordsmen. Those disciples didn't even have the chance to scream. Their sword light was annihilated and their corpses melted!
"Forget it!" Jian Li's heart sank. "Even if I escape, how can I face Lu Ruochang and the others?"
Immediately after, the sword energy flew back and stopped in midair. The sword light sank into the yellow sand again!
Seeing Jian Li's return, Cheng Ming and Peng Die were slightly stunned. However, at the same time, they saw the huge sword formed by Jian Li's sword emit a brilliance that was several feet long. The overflowing sword energy also rushed in all directions!
"Not good!
This guy is going to self-destruct … "Peng Die suddenly realized and was about to warn Jian Li.
She saw the array tremble and a powerful suction force was born from the huge sword. The spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth within a few hundred feet of the huge sword swarmed toward it.
The hurricane immediately tangled with the Yin wind within the array. The yellow sand that filled the sky lost its momentum and slowly fell to the ground …
"Woo!" The huge sword emitted a strong sword hum. That hum was filled with sorrow!
"Woo!" The flying swords of the remaining thousands of Bright Sword Swordsmen that were suppressed under the yellow sand were also attracted by the huge sword. They all emitted a sonorous sword hum!
At the same time, following this loud sword hum, these flying swords were slowly sucked out of the yellow sand …
"We can't let these swordsmen escape …" Cheng Ming was also anxious. Although they had killed many swordsmen just now, those swordsmen were only at the Nurturing Sword and Bright Sword Stage. There weren't many who were at the Bright Sword Stage who had fallen. This was the key to killing the swordsmen who had real combat power!
However, before Cheng Ming and Peng Die could activate the flag again … "Boom!"
With a loud bang, the giant sword emitted an extremely dazzling brilliance. Then, this brilliance cracked inch by inch, turning into thousands of crystal fragments. These crystal fragments charged into the yellow sand and emitted thousands of sword Qi. Moreover, these crystal fragments did not scatter in all directions as the sword force's Origin Spirit disappeared. Instead, they enveloped the space within a radius of several hundred feet. It seemed to be a secret technique, but it also seemed to be a sword formation. The sword Qi on each crystal fragment circled around each other, controlling the yellow sand that was wreaking havoc in this space. For a moment, it felt as if the wind had calmed down!
"Rise, rise, rise …" Cheng Ming and Peng Die tried their best to activate the flag, but all the yellow sand and hurricanes couldn't be controlled as they wished …
"Run …" How could the thousands of Liu Jian Sect swordsmen not know the reason behind this? This Jian Li had used his own life to give them a chance to live. They all had tears in their eyes as they urged their flying swords to fly out of the still yellow sand and towards the path of life ….
If Jian Li of the Liujian Sect, who was at the second grade of the Illusory Sword Stage, sacrificed himself in exchange for the survival of thousands of his disciples in the Earth Destruction Formation, then the situation in the Wind Destruction Formation was even more tragic!
Moreover, this Wind Destruction Formation was jointly managed by Changbai Sect's Li Jijie, Chen Fan Valley's Xu Zheqi, and Tong Yi Sect's Kou Xiangling, the three Golden Core cultivators. There were more disciples of the three sects hidden than the two sects in the Earth Destruction Formation!
The hurricanes were each stronger than the last. The sharp wind blades were like sharp swords that cut the throat. They were even more deadly than the piercing yellow sand.
Not to mention the time it took to drink a cup of tea, there were already dozens of hurricanes blowing out from the whirlpool, killing thousands of Liujian Sect swordsmen. Even the huge sword formed by Xue Chong's Illusory Sword swordsmen was blown away by the wind like thin paper. It was tightly attached to the huge sword, as if it would be blown apart with the slightest movement!
As for the area protected by the dozens of Illusory Swords, it was getting smaller and smaller. It couldn't protect the other swordsmen at all. In fact, the light was gradually fading and was about to disappear …
