fifth form

Chapter 3490 Control Array
In the central lake of the Xieluoschuan Sacred Site, a mountain rises from the water.

The Golden Dragon King has a small and slender body, while the Earth Dragon King has an extremely large body, which is even covered by mountains.

The Earth Dragon King is also a key figure in sealing the secret realm's gate. If he doesn't move, the gate's locking pillars will be firmly stuck and unable to move an inch.

A top-tier cultivator could easily break through a bronze gate, but if the Earth Dragon King blocked the entrance and made it difficult to get out for a while, and then suffered an attack from Zhu Jiuyin, it would be a potentially fatal situation.

When Zhu Jiuyin could not escape the secret place through deception, the Five Lakes Dragon King was destined to die.

In the well of the Demon King Yangli's palace, turbid water mixed with dragon blood kept gushing out.

The dissipation of dragon blood enraged many demons around the sacred land. As they charged toward the Eight Views Carriage as if committing suicide, countless howling and screaming ghosts emerged wildly.

Like bloodsucking worms, these vengeful spirits burrowed into the bodies of various demonic birds, causing them to fall from the lake surface from time to time, and also resulting in the direct killing of many transformed demons.

The whole scene looked more like a massacre; the individual's strength was far from enough to fight against the group, but the magic weapon bridged the gap.

This is like the suppression of cold weapons by firearms. A few powerful cultivators, wielding heavy treasures, continuously slay the blood-filled and frenzied demons, while suffering almost no injury themselves.

"Given the chance, Zhu Jiuyin...did he consume too many elixirs, or is his soul still lingering?"

The chaotic scene would undoubtedly create opportunities to enter and exit. When the red light in the secret place reflected on the murky lake water, Zhang Xuezhou knew very well that he could take this opportunity to enter the secret place.

But through the cracked bronze door, Zhang Xuezhou did not see Zhu Jiuyin behind it, and Zhu Jiuyin's massive dragon body did not react at all.

While Zhang Xuezhou was pondering, his body reacted even faster than his thoughts.

Regardless of Zhu Jiuyin's situation, Ren Anran's most likely point of arrival is in this secret place; he has no choice but to go in, whether he wants to or not.

Those who enter early have some time to act, while those who enter later will inevitably face a double attack.

Even the massive Earth Dragon King, whose body was as large as a mountain, was beaten until his body twisted and burrowed back and forth. Zhang Xuezhou's physical body, having reached sainthood, was not much stronger, especially since he did not achieve sainthood through blood and qi. The strength of his physical body, honed by magical power, was probably very close to that of the Earth Dragon King.

With a flash of golden light from his wings, Zhang Xuezhou had already unleashed a speed exceeding the sound barrier.

As if in an instant, he traversed hundreds of meters in a flash.

Apart from the Peacock King, who cast a disheartened glance at Zhang Xuezhou, the two leaders remained unsuspecting. The Earth Dragon King's mountain-like body further obscured Donghua and the others.

"Is he really in a coma?"

The tens of thousands of low-grade Qi and Blood Creation Pills refined in the underground palace have vanished without a trace. Under Zhu Jiuyin's body, raging flames continue to burn, indicating that he is in the stage of expelling the poison from the pills through external forces.

Just like Zhang Xuezhou's early practice of the "Cloud Technique" where he was stuck, he entrusted the task of refining his wings to Wuchao, while his soul returned to reality, thus avoiding the unbearable stinging pain to his physical body.

The process of expelling erysipelas was destined to be anything but pleasant, and Zhu Jiuyin did not endure it in the physical body.

"It's over!"

Zhang Xuezhou thought to himself, knowing that defeat was inevitable.

His gaze swept around, and he quickly found a piece of glass under the claws of the Candle Nine Yin Dragon.

With just a touch of Zhu Jiuyin's blood, this glass can control one-third of the Hunyuan Wuji Array.

"I'll flick you on the head!" Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to break through Zhu Jiuyin's body, even with the help of divine weapons. But Zhang Xuezhou knew where the most vulnerable part of Zhu Jiuyin's body was.

Ying Fusu once shot arrow after arrow at Zhu Jiuyin's head, and what seemed to be the hardest head actually became Zhu Jiuyin's Achilles' heel.

With a single poke, blood gushed out from Zhu Jiuyin's head.

As if infused by the Qingzhou Cauldron, Zhu Jiuyin was clearly experiencing a rush of qi and blood to his head due to swallowing an excessive amount of Qi and Blood Creation Pill at once.

Zhang Xuezhou only intended to dab a little blood on his finger, never expecting such a spurting of blood.

He stuffed the glass into the hole, then cast a Taiqing True Technique on it before quickly falling.

By following the fire pillars entwined by Zhu Jiuyin downwards, you can enter the back side of this secret fiery place.

The flames that once burned Zhang Xuezhou were now as if tamed, constantly dodging him as he plummeted.

Just follow this fiery path down for a few kilometers, then turn a corner, and the other side of the secret realm will come into view.

The geomagnetic light reflected a variety of colorful lusters, and the spatial turbulence brought about by the pulling of the Primordial Chaos Array made the sky's reflection appear on the back of the secret place, as if the deep sky was under one's feet.

This upside-down, reversible scene once made Zhang Xuezhou feel uneasy, but now when he looks at it, he is extremely indifferent and cannot feel any emotional fluctuation.

In Zhang Xuezhou's eyes, no matter what method he used, he just needed to delay as much time as possible until Ren Anran arrived safely, and then leave safely with her. He didn't ask for anything else at the moment.

Daojun's glazed array artifact and Jiuling Yuansheng's bluestone array artifact were not in their original locations. Zhang Xuezhou was a little disappointed after looking around, but he understood the situation. After all, he wouldn't just throw array artifacts around randomly when setting up an array, much less leave them in the array for someone to use.

He quickly placed the array artifacts from Zhu Jiuyin in their previous positions, pondered for a few seconds, and then began to repeat the incantation that Zhu Jiuyin had once chanted.

This incantation is similar to the voice control of an appliance. Whether it is recited for a long time or a short time, its main function is to guide the activation of the array. The essence blood of Zhu Jiuyin is the identification method before activation.

"Thank goodness it worked!"

A faint light shone from the glass. Zhang Xuezhou reached out and pressed his hand on it, and a rapid extension of his senses immediately followed.

The howling wind blows by, the snow-capped peaks stand tall, the bare boulders seem ready to crumble at the slightest touch, and the forests, trees, and mudflats—all these creations constantly come to mind.

The 360 ​​unique peaks and the three sacred sites pulled together to form a massive array that created the area.

"It's a pity we can only recover the power of one hundred and twenty strange peaks!"

Zhu Jiuyin's array artifacts can only control one-third of the array, which is far from enough to unleash the full power of the Hunyuan Wuji Array.

If it were aimed at ordinary cultivators, even one ten-thousandth of the array's power would be enough to crush them, but this array was insufficient even to unleash its full power against Donghua and the others.

Being able to control the formation is always better than not having one, so Zhang Xuezhou didn't ask for much.

He was just waiting for Donghua and the others to enter the secret place before unleashing a powerful attack to temporarily trap them in the formation.

"An Ran's strength is relatively weak, and she has experienced long-distance traversal in the void. It is impossible for her to have the ability to pull Zhu Jiuyin to an unfamiliar area in the void, which would have caused both of them to get lost and not know their way!"

By temporarily controlling the Hunyuan Wuji Array, Zhang Xuezhou could buy some time, but he didn't know when Ren Anran would arrive with Zhu Jiuyin.

He couldn't help but make wild guesses for a moment, and then tried to trap Donghua and the others to find out their location in the void, so as to notify them as soon as possible and then quickly return.
