Chapter 1174: Golden Light Formation and...Real Name Revealed

Putting aside the earth-shattering battle between the two giant robots in outer space, the battle on the ground is still going on.

Compared to the advanced fourth-stage Luo Gandao, Luo Yinglong, who was originally his enemy but is now his teammate, has already reached the "tribulation period" in the cultivation stage and is not far from truly becoming an immortal... But at this moment, he unexpectedly fell into a disadvantage.

"Shh!"

There was a bright light, as if he was in a different dimension. Luo Yinglong narrowly lowered his head and dodged hundreds of rays of light that were coming straight at him.

Light is an invisible thing, but in this space, the most common thing in real life has become a weapon that can take people's lives. The golden light that shot towards Luo Yinglong was not only like a fine needle, but also had a corresponding entity. It also exuded a majestic and supreme smell. Even if he dodged it, more and denser golden light would fall from the sky in the blink of an eye, tracking Luo Yinglong like a thorn in his flesh, and was determined to pierce his heart with thousands of arrows...

"Tsk...now we're in trouble."

Luo Yinglong never expected that the enemy he was fighting against would have such a sophisticated method. He could clearly feel the strong power of faith emanating from the elf girl named Alia, but when he made up his mind to attack her directly with the sword, the other party suddenly deployed a formation, trapping the unprepared Luo Yinglong...

What was even more shocking was the extraordinary strength of this formation. Twenty-one sword-shaped divine mirrors were seen floating in the sky and underground, with golden stars appearing in the mirrors, and the light of the Enlightenment star wandering between the mirrors, sometimes transforming into Gengjin sword energy, sometimes condensing into Taibai Comet, and even deriving countless Western-style divine weapons with various powers.

There was a swirl of golden light in front of his eyes, and he couldn't see clearly where the attack was coming from. If Luo Yinglong didn't have his spiritual sense to assist him, he would have been shot into a sieve long ago... But even so, every mirror could reflect the light, multiplying it to twenty-one times and turning it into a continuous offensive, as if the divine punishment would never stop, and the scene looked extremely critical.

Since the enemy had absolute control over the power of the metal element, Luo Yinglong could not even use his most proud sword control technique, and ordinary weapons and weapons would be immediately taken away from him. Although the Purple and Green Swords and the Fuxi Sword did not betray their master due to their high status and spirituality, they also became extremely heavy and difficult to drive, making it even more difficult to cause damage to the enemy.

Of course, Luo Yinglong was not defeated so easily. He dodged and maneuvered, constantly gathering the basic Bagua runes for defense, while trying to analyze the principle of this formation.

However, the more he analyzed, the more frightened he became. As he had many exchanges with Qi Tengyi, who was also an orthodox cultivator, Luo Yinglong had a deep understanding of the corresponding cultivation arrays... The array set up by the elf girl in front of him was at least 90% similar to the "Golden Light Array" in the Ten Absolute Arrays!

Although it incorporates the way of faith in becoming a god, the power of the formation and its corresponding characteristics are genuine and are by no means imitations or fakes that "smell like the real thing but are not."

But, how is this possible?

In the world of cultivation, "pure bloodline" and "birth background" have always been of great importance. Those old cultivators obviously care most about the purity of bloodline and are especially wary of outsiders. Even his quite open-minded master Baimei is the same... But now, this alien girl from the elf race can actually use such a superb Shangqing formation to perfection?
——Never mind, let’s try it out first…

Luo Yinglong was really curious, but he was not really forced into a dead end. However, that did not stop him from pretending. When a corner of his Taoist robe was cut off by countless golden lights, Luo Yinglong pretended to be about to collapse, and shouted repeatedly: "Stop fighting! Junior sister! Junior sister!"

"…Who is your junior sister?"

Seeing that the opponent actually started to recognize relatives in the middle of the fight, Alia was speechless and showed an impatient look: "When you are about to die, you are still trying to claim relatives and take advantage of others?"

"Your Shangqing formation is so orthodox, and I am also a disciple of the Sanqing lineage. Isn't this my junior sister?"

I'm not afraid of the other party's contempt, I'm just afraid of the other party not responding. Seeing that this "chat flow" was actually successful, Luo Yinglong hurriedly took advantage of the situation and imitated Cheng Xiao's usual attitude, continuing to talk nonsense and shamelessly trying to get close to her: "Of course, if you want, you can call me senior sister!"

"How can I have any master in cultivation? Apart from the help of Chu Xuan and Yi Qi, I just naturally mastered this power when I obtained the godhood and power."

Although her tone was cold, Alia actually answered Luo Yinglong's question: "Although I have no grudge against you, the Demon Team is the savior of me and the elves of Algeshia. If you are a cultivator, you should understand the principle of cause and effect."

Alia is not a clone of other members of the Reincarnation Team, but a plot character in the world of Dragon Knight, the elf princess of the continent of Algarcia.

Perhaps it was because of the plot changes caused by the Lord adjusting the dynamic difficulty according to the strength of the Reincarnation Team, when the Demon Team entered Dragon Rider, they faced not only the tyranny of Gobatar, but a world that was corrupted and polluted by the Abyss, plundered by countless demons, and the local intelligent races united to resist. The original protagonists Eragon and Aaliyah naturally became the leaders of the human and elf resistance respectively.

At the end of the horror film, several demon lords from the Abyss, including the Skeleton Knight, set their sights on the secrets of the Reincarnation Team. They simultaneously tried to pull the entire Algarcia plane and the members of the Demon Team into the abyss. In the end, it was the clone Zheng Zha who forcibly used the immature "Original Darkness·End of the Universe" to destroy the connection between the plane and the abyss, but the entire plane was no longer suitable for life, so it was transferred by the Demon Team to the Middle-earth world of "The Lord of the Rings" with the same fantasy background using the Disc Mothership.

In order to repay this favor, Alia took the initiative to join the demon team. She was originally a magician who was good at elven star magic, and her compatriots in the Lord of the Rings plane gave her the light of the Star of Eärendil. Therefore, becoming the god in charge of Venus was the most suitable path for her.

With the help of the God of Wind and Sophia, she defeated the last god in the world of "The Mummy", and received the small Holy Grail from the world of the Holy Grail War from the captain Tom, and was successfully promoted to a god in charge of Venus.

"If you don't want to fight, just admit defeat and run away..."

But halfway through her words, thinking of the kindness and karma she had received along the way, Alia's expression suddenly turned cold as a sword: "No, I can't let you run away here so easily and go to help other members of the Zhongzhou team!"

"You must die here today!" - There is something strange.

Feeling the pressure from all around him suddenly increase, Luo Yinglong muttered to himself. From what he had just said, this elf girl named Alia was originally a young person who had not experienced much of the world and did not have much hostility towards him. At most, she was just following orders... But why did she reveal such a huge murderous intent in the middle of her words?

——Forget it, the most basic information has been obtained, and the rest of the matters should be discussed slowly... Let’s break the formation first!

Facing the famous golden light array in the Conferred God War, Luo Yinglong showed a rare serious look, sweeping away the silly demeanor of the past. The young man crossed his hands and shouted loudly: "Use the power of heaven and earth, the eight trigrams take shape, the Tushita divine flame, the sky is destroyed and the earth is destroyed!"

"Li! Yi!"

Although he had learned the Bagua method a long time ago, Luo Yinglong's strength had now increased by more than one level? With the continuous infusion of true energy, a burning purple fireball suddenly appeared in his hands, extremely hot, emitting unimaginable high temperature... and as Luo Yinglong raised his hands above his head, the fireball began to expand rapidly, just like the Gaia energy cannon held by Battle Greymon!
"Infinite fire, illuminating the ten directions! Nine-flame fire!"

The purple Nine Flames were much hotter than the white flames. In an instant, a mighty purple sun rose again from the void, more blazing than before, like a divine fire that burned the heavens and the earth, pouring down, trying to burn up the golden light array!

According to the theory of the Five Elements, "Li Fire" overcomes "Geng Metal", which is "setting sun melting gold"!
To be fair, Luo Yinglong's idea was good, and the idea of ​​using fire to overcome metal was also correct. But before the purple sun descended from the sky, the twenty-one sword-shaped divine mirrors around him all extinguished their dazzling brilliance. The mirrors that were originally used for "reflection" now turned into black holes that seemed to swallow everything, emitting an extremely powerful suction force... In just a moment, the energy in the Nine Flames was completely absorbed, leaving nothing behind!
"It's useless, don't waste your efforts."

Seeing Luo Yinglong holding his hands high and standing there in a funny posture like a fool, Alia's voice could not help but be filled with a bit of ridicule and malice, which was even more different from her initial personality: "Do you think Chu Xuan didn't expect this? The 'Ten Directions Reincarnation Formation' has long been engraved on these twenty-one magic mirrors. Whether to 'absorb' or 'release' is entirely up to me..."

"...Well, if you are still an orthodox cultivator, then you should be able to understand the effect of this formation, right?"

——Damn it, how dare you use my moves against me?
When Luo Yinglong heard the five words "Ten Directions Reincarnation Array" from Alia's mouth, a sense of absurdity suddenly surged in his heart.

The Ten Directions Samsara Formation is a formation specially prepared for cultivators to fight. Its characteristic is that it absorbs the energy overflowed by the fighters in the formation, and uses this energy to strengthen the venue, while at the same time strengthening the formation.

Luo Yinglong had also heard Zheng Zha describe the situation during the final battle, and the other him in the original world line had absorbed the aftermath of the battle between the two Zheng Zha by setting up the "Ten Directions Samsara Formation", which gave him inexhaustible energy. Otherwise, he would not have been able to use the Qingsuo Sword, an innate spiritual treasure that consumes a lot of energy, to compete with the runaway EVA that uses infinite spiritual light as energy...

"Delicious expression... It seems that you already understand the situation you are facing."

Alia was not in a hurry to attack. On the contrary, she was like a spider, observing the prey trapped in the spider web, and there was a hint of malicious guidance in her voice. As the twenty-one mirrors regained their previous glory, the golden light bursting from the mirror surface became more and more dazzling: "Of course, you can try a few more times. After all, all formations have their corresponding upper limits... Who knows, my Ten Directions Samsara Formation may be completely blown up by your attack?"

"You are insulting my intelligence, aren't you? Don't treat me like Zheng Zha."

Luo Yinglong sighed. If it was Zheng Zha, a guy whose body moved before his brain, he might have tried this method. After all, enemies who absorbed energy were defeated by the excess energy and completely exploded. This was common in all kinds of works...

Of course, as a knowledgeable and cultured cultivator, Luo Yinglong would not use such a crude method without any technical content. He scratched his head and said, "Although I haven't seen all your details, you must have used a different method to forcibly replace the true energy with the power of faith to set up the formation... Otherwise, you would not be able to incorporate the Ten Directions Samsara Formation into the Golden Light Formation."

Nesting arrays is a technical job, and the golden light array is a very difficult array. Even Qi Teng, a master of arrays, would not be able to do it so well... There is no other possibility except that the other party took a shortcut.

"Yinglong, you must remember that if you want to defeat a god, you must analyze his essence and origin, and find out his true name that represents his most core concept..."

Thinking of what his former girlfriend Linaya, who was also practicing the path of godhood, had said to him, Luo Yinglong's expression suddenly became sad. A trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, as if he had returned to the time when he spent every day with her.

However, the young man did not dwell on his memories for too long. He quickly pulled himself together and scratched his hair. “Using the power of the gods to drive the replacement of true energy as the underlying logic of the golden light array… I should be right.”

"The core of the Golden Light Formation is 'gold', there is no doubt about that. However, compared to the 'Ten Heavenly Lords' or the 'Golden Spirit Mother', as well as the 'Kangjin Dragon' in the Twenty-Eight Constellations, you not only manipulate a variety of mythical weapons, but your temperament and power also reveal multiple divine qualities, which is completely unlike those gods that are only circulated in China."

"So according to my guess, the god related to you should be the concept of 'Venus'. However, compared to the goddess of love and beauty 'Venus' in Roman mythology, and the corresponding god 'Aphrodite' in Greek mythology, the origin of your mythology should be even older..."

"So, let me guess... Ishtar, the goddess who symbolizes Venus in ancient Babylonian mythology and has both positive and negative sides?"

"...I can't let you stay!"

After a brief silence, Alia's murderous voice sounded again in the golden light array!
