Chapter 5818 Ancient Formation, Entering the Formation
"Since we have the Origin Dragon Relic, it would be better for this old man to leave it in the Weak Water. Then I will trouble the Dragon Lord."
After a moment's thought, the mysterious old monster quickly made a decision. He had been trapped in the Weak Water for countless years. Just as Lu Xiaotian was fighting the Qiu Meng Demon Ancestor, his plan to take the Source Dragon Relic by taking advantage of the opportunity failed. After Lu Xiaotian finished dealing with the Qiu Meng Demon Ancestor, he forcibly captured him.
Lu Xiaotian obtained the cultivation method from this mysterious old monster, and by drawing on the source dragon relic, he finally succeeded in integrating the Nine Nether Weak Water and the laws of space into his own Dharma realm and the relic.
After this epiphany, Lu Xiaotian's strength improved significantly, which enabled him to contend with the Four Heavenly Emperors until now.
The mysterious old monster taught Lu Xiaotian some cultivation methods and also received many benefits from the Sky Heaven Cauldron.
At this moment, Lu Xiaotian's promise to give him a Source Dragon Relic naturally delighted him, and his earlier displeasure was no longer worth mentioning.
The mysterious old monster sighed deeply. He had been trying to obtain the Origin Dragon Relic for countless years in the vicinity of the Qiu Meng Demon Ancestor's cave, but to no avail. When he was forcibly captured by Lu Xiaotian, he felt that his time was coming to an end. He never expected that this would be the greatest opportunity he had ever had.
With the Origin Dragon Relic in hand, the Nine Nether Weak Water, which had previously restricted him, will become his greatest asset.
"The Four Heavenly Emperors are more powerful than I expected. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this great battle. Farewell, fellow Daoist."
Lu Xiaotian reached out and sent out a Source Dragon Relic. Without Lu Xiaotian's restriction, the mysterious old monster's primordial spirit easily entered the relic.
"To single-handedly confront the four Heavenly Emperors is a feat that perhaps only you, the Supreme Heavenly Dragon, could accomplish within all these realms."
The mysterious old monster sighed. Although Lu Xiaotian released him a little late, he was still a man of his word.
"What's the use if only I can do it? I'm doomed this time too. Once I'm defeated by the Four Heavenly Emperors, everything will return to dust." Lu Xiaotian gave a bitter smile.
"With my limited strength, I can't help you much, but I do know a place that might be of some help to the Dragon Lord," the mysterious old monster said.
"Where to?" Lu Xiaotian's expression shifted.
This old monster was once an Emperor-level expert in his prime. Since he said that, it must be an extremely dangerous place for the Heavenly Emperor.
Even with the Nine Nether Weak Water alone, Lu Xiaotian couldn't hold out against the Four Heavenly Emperors for long, and he was almost driven to the brink of despair.
Since the other party could tell him a destination, Lu Xiaotian had to give it a try. He didn't expect to completely shake off the Four Heavenly Emperors; he just wanted to delay them for as long as possible.
What he lacks most now is time. He has grasped a trace of the mystery of the spatial Dao Seed during the great battle. If he has more time, even if he cannot fully cultivate the spatial Dao Seed, it can promote the further integration of the spatial law realm and the Nine Nether Weak Water. For Lu Xiaotian, this will also greatly improve his strength.
If he were to have a stroke of luck and successfully cultivate the third Law of the Great Dao, Lu Xiaotian wasn't even sure how much his strength would increase.
A surge of spatial power coursed through the Weak Water, from which the calm voice of a mysterious old monster emerged. The old monster extended his palm, and a map formed from spatial power floated towards Lu Xiaotian.
"The location indicated by this map is deep within the Nine Nether Weak Waters, where an ancient formation has existed for countless years."
Even in my prime, I couldn't enter it. Later, I perished unexpectedly, and within this Weak Water, I am neither human nor ghost, becoming this peculiar being.
In order to restore my cultivation level or break free from the shackles of the Weak Water, I have considered many methods. I have been studying how to enter this formation and see what is inside.
However, my abilities are limited, and I have been unable to find the right approach. Since the Dragon Lord has nowhere else to go, perhaps we should give it a try. As for whether it will bring fortune or misfortune, I cannot guarantee.
"Thank you for telling me, fellow Daoist. Although I don't know if it will bring good or bad fortune, at least there is still a sliver of possibility." Lu Xiaotian thanked the other party. Given his current situation, he was not in a position to be picky. As long as there was a possibility, it was worth trying.
"Until we meet again. I hope we will meet again someday, Dragon Lord." The mysterious old monster sighed, and before he finished speaking, he had already vanished into the depths of the Weak Water.
Lu Xiaotian's divine sense entered this peculiar map formed by spatial power, and soon the path inside was clearly presented in his mind.
At its peak, the mysterious old monster possessed the strength of an Emperor Realm expert. Even though he later met an unexpected end and became this strange being in the Weak Water, his strength had greatly diminished. However, to avoid vanishing into nothingness, his primordial spirit actually merged with the Nine Nether Weak Water.
If he were in a different place, Lu Xiaotian admitted that he might not be able to do it in this situation. The fact that he can now make use of the Weak Water to this extent is also due to the guidance he received from the mysterious old monster.
Even though the old monster's strength has declined considerably, his understanding of the Nine Nether Weak Water and its environment is unparalleled in the entire realm. Under such circumstances, he still cannot figure out that strange formation, which shows its wondrous nature.
After a slight hesitation, Lu Xiaotian continued to absorb and refine the Weak Water. The mysterious old monster had also said that even if they found the great formation on the map, there might not necessarily be anything useful inside.
If we give up absorbing and refining the Weak Water now, and we are unable to enter that strange formation, or if there is nothing usable inside, and we are surrounded by the Four Heavenly Emperors, then we will truly be left with no one to turn to for help.
"What strange fluctuations in the laws." After chasing for a while, Emperor Nandan and the others found the aura becoming increasingly bizarre, and a hint of doubt appeared in their eyes.
"This is the Nine Nether Weak Water, so it's perfectly normal for things to be a bit strange here. Whatever dares to stand in our way will be crushed to pieces." The Underworld Emperor's eyes were like needles.
"Besides the anomalies within the Weak Water itself, the Dragon Lord seems to be absorbing a large amount of it. We cannot let our guard down. With the Supreme Heavenly Dragon's strength, any opportunity could bring about unpredictable changes," said Emperor Honghao.
A moment later, the four Heavenly Emperors arrived at an area where the Nine Nether Weak Water and the power of space were chaotically intertwined. The Heavenly Emperors all wore solemn expressions.
Ordinary weak water and spatial fluctuations are not a major problem for them. Even though the power of the two has increased significantly after merging to this extent, they still do not threaten their safety. However, the interference they cause is too great.
The Dragon-Slaying Cleaver was subjected to such a huge interference that its perception of Lu Xiaotian became blurred, which was not a good sign.
"The Dragon Lord's cultivation has improved too quickly. We must not give him any chance to catch his breath. Once he gets enough rest, who knows what kind of changes might occur later?" Emperor Honghao said, and the others all agreed.
Lu Xiaotian's progress in cultivation has been nothing short of miraculous, unmatched by anyone in the entire realm.
Despite being relentlessly pursued and engaged in constant battles, it has still managed to make a breakthrough in the laws of space. If given enough time to recuperate, it will likely be unstoppable, or the cost of forcibly suppressing it would be unbearable for them.
The newly appeared area seemed extremely strange. Hong Haotian and the others quickly reached a consensus and immediately entered this chaotic area. After searching it, they faintly discovered some traces left by Lu Xiaotian's activities.
Lu Xiaotian didn't want to leave any clues for the other party, but sometimes circumstances are beyond one's control.
Originally, thanks to the spatial map given to him by the mysterious old monster, Lu Xiaotian was able to conceal his aura to the lowest level, and it would take the Four Heavenly Emperors some time to find him.
However, Lu Xiaotian was not very lucky. During his journey, he absorbed a large amount of the Nine Nether Weak Water, but his attempt to refine and fuse it was not smooth.
The Nine Nether Weak Water is not enough to harm it, but when it merges with the spatial laws, the Origin Dragon Relic, and Lu Xiaotian's own Dharma Realm, if the process is not smooth, it will cause disorder in the power within Lu Xiaotian's body, and the leakage of his aura will be unavoidable.
At the same time, Lu Xiaotian also needed to find the ancient formation within the spatial map as soon as possible. The Four Heavenly Emperors were chasing him too closely, and he had no chance to eliminate any traces along the way.
Before them lay another area where the spatial power and the weak water were extremely unstable, even exhibiting violent forces.
It took considerable effort. Finally, the abnormal condition within his body was brought under control. Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed, and he flicked out several drops of essence blood. Each drop transformed into a blue dragon, entering the chaotic and violent area from different locations.
Lu Xiaotian didn't know how long this method could confuse the other party, but as long as it might have some effect, he had to try it. After doing all this, Lu Xiaotian also gathered his energy and entered into the process.
In this pitch-black place where even divine sense could hardly detect how far away, the resistance encountered grew stronger and stronger, even posing a significant obstacle to Lu Xiaotian, thus forcing him to slow down.
After traveling for a while, Lu Xiaotian's divine sense could only detect a radius of about a hundred miles. He was quite surprised, as if he had returned to the time when he was still in the Golden Core stage.
At this moment, a sliver of hope inevitably lingered in his mind. The more dangerous this hidden place was, the greater the interference it would have on his divine sense.
It became increasingly difficult for the later Heavenly Emperors to find him, and once they arrived here, the spatial map given to them by the mysterious old monster was no longer of any use.
Moo!
Just as Lu Xiaotian was surprised, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He had found the place the mysterious old monster had mentioned. This should be the entrance to that ancient formation.
Lu Xiaotian couldn't sense any trace of the array's fluctuations, but the fact that it could suppress his divine sense to this extent was definitely not something that Jiuyou Weak Water could do. Lu Xiaotian guessed that he might have already reached the outer edge of the array.
With some suspicion in his mind, and noticing some unusual activity in the depths of the Weak Water, Lu Xiaotian approached the other party without thinking.
Beneath this Weak Water, he had only encountered one mysterious old monster and had not yet met any other living creatures. Now that other noises were coming from here, he naturally became curious.
Following the trail of activity, they didn't encounter the expected demons, but instead saw ten skull-like creatures resembling bull heads.
Each of these ten heads was hundreds of feet tall, like a giant beast floating in the Weak Water. The empty eye sockets appeared incredibly deep, as if they could devour his gaze and consciousness.
"Shiwu!" Lu Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise. The ancient dragon texts he had obtained did mention one or two kinds of demons who had lived by the Weak Water since childhood, keeping company with it.
However, when the ancient dragon race still existed, these two kinds of demons became extinct one after another, and the Shiwu was one of them.
It is said that the opponent has the ability to cause upheaval in the Weak Water, but the specifics are impossible to verify. However, the fact that the opponent's head has existed in the Weak Water for so long suggests that the rumors may not be unfounded.
The ten heads of the Shiwu formed a powerful array, which seemed to be the entrance to the array mentioned by the mysterious old monster.
The head of the slayer kept changing position, and its long mooing sounds had a soul-shaking pressure, which explained why the mysterious old monster could not get close.
The opponent lacked a physical body, and their primordial spirit lacked sufficient support and stability. Under such sonic impact, they couldn't withstand it for long.
It seems that even with divine sense, the distance of only a hundred miles was affected by the interference from these severed heads.
Lu Xiaotian observed for a while but couldn't figure it out. Feeling that continuing wouldn't yield any progress, Lu Xiaotian didn't waste any time and floated forward, slowly approaching the area where the slain heads were located.
As it approached, the erosive and devouring power of the surrounding Weak Water increased dramatically. The roar of the Killing Beast also grew more violent, seemingly desperately resisting Lu Xiaotian, this outsider.
Ordinary Immortal Lord level experts would probably not be able to withstand such terrifying fluctuations for more than a few breaths. However, at Lu Xiaotian's current level, there are indeed not many external things that can threaten him. The resistance is getting stronger and stronger, but Lu Xiaotian is still moving forward slowly and firmly.
If he wanted, he could go even faster, but what he needed to do was enter the formation to see if there was anything useful inside, or to use the formation to isolate the Heavenly Emperor from searching for him.
If you destroy it with violence, then all your efforts will have been in vain.
Entering the formation by brute force is not advisable, and Lu Xiaotian also possesses considerable expertise in formations. As he slowly moved forward, the heads of the ten Shiwu beasts constantly changed, and Lu Xiaotian carefully sensed the patterns governing the formation's operation.
Maintaining a certain level of pressure, Lu Xiaotian walked and stopped intermittently, a thoughtful look in his eyes. He continuously deduced the operating trajectory of the Killing Blade, and thus began to discern some of its mysteries.
This is an array based on the Nine Nether Weak Water and spatial fluctuations. Each of the slaying beasts' heads faintly emits runic fluctuations.
Using runes to control formations is indeed a very clever method.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes were filled with admiration. It wasn't just that the array's attack was powerful enough to survive in the Nine Nether Weak Water for so long, and it still maintained such an astonishing sense of oppression against him. This array was truly a masterpiece of creation, and he wondered who had created it.
If the person who set up the formation were to be present and oversee it, Lu Xiaotian probably wouldn't have a chance to enter the formation anytime soon. Now that it's an unclaimed formation, it can't stop him by relying solely on its own operation.
Lu Xiaotian moved forward slowly, letting the array's effects work on him. Although the array's attack power was strong, it didn't reach the level of the Four Heavenly Emperors.
With Lu Xiaotian's defensive capabilities, he was fully capable of holding out, enduring the various attacks of the formation while continuously searching for an entrance.
After nearly two hours of this stalemate, Lu Xiaotian finally found a gap and vanished in a flash. (End of Chapter)
