Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 260: The great formation is broken, squatting and watching
Wei Zhong's departure time is uncertain this time. If there is anything he is still worried about, it is only Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua.

Even from a selfish perspective, the achievements Wei Zhong had made this time were enough to allow the two of them to leave the front line.

More importantly, Wei Zhong's promotion to the God Transformation realm might cause a big commotion, so removing the two from the public eye is also a way to protect them.

A few days later, a spirit boat rose into the air from near the Demon Eye. The nearby cultivators looked at the spirit boat going away in the distance with complicated expressions in their eyes.

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Wei Zhong was so badly injured... So he retreated to the rear to recuperate, and brought a senior formation master with him. Our strength is even weaker..."

"With the support of Senior Yu and fellow Yuanying Daoists, the lack of a formation master is not a big deal. I just hope that Fellow Daoist Wei can recover from his injuries as soon as possible..."

"Speaking of which, this Fellow Daoist Wei is really very prestigious. He is even escorted by Senior Jie himself..."

Wei Zhong left this time on the pretext of going to the Jie family's land to recuperate. With the endorsement of Jie Yuanping, a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, the others naturally had no objection.

Even Bai Heng and Hong Xu expressed their approval when they heard about this, considering Wei Zhong's contribution.

After taking Xie Linghua onto the spirit boat, Wei Zhong turned to look at Xie Yuanping:

"Trouble you, senior!"

The latter waved his sleeves:
"Your wife and concubines will be well taken care of by my Jie family. Just prepare for your promotion without any worries."

Wei Zhong nodded, gave the two girls some instructions, and then took out some cultivation resources and gave them to them.

Then he jumped off the spirit boat, disappeared into the high-altitude clouds, concealing his body, and headed towards the Western Desert.

Through Da Jin's sight, Wei Zhong could see endless columns of luck and smoke gathering towards the direction of Fuyun Temple. A jade lotus platform rose from the ground, and Guanshi sat cross-legged with his eyes closed...

Xie Yuanping rolled up his sleeves, and the spiritual energy around him was emptied. The spirit boat suddenly jumped up and headed towards the Polar Star Sea at a faster speed.

In the Chen family's secret place, there were only three people stuck there.

At this moment, Xue Che did not make any more moves, but sat cross-legged around the Taihua Spiritual Stele. Chen Ronglan and Lin Yun did the same.

It’s just that Xue Che is closer to the Taihua Spiritual Stele, followed by Chen Ronglan, and Lin Yun is the farthest away.

Three people are caught in a "wrestling match" for the spiritual tablet. It is a competition between merits and the power of destiny in the dark, and they cannot win the fight.

This was the solution Chen Ronglan came up with, but it obviously had a flaw.

Taoist Lin Yun was excluded far away from the periphery, and at this moment it was just a fight between Xue Che and Chen Ronglan.

The worst thing is that Chen Ronglan is still at a disadvantage.

Xue Che's eyes showed a hint of joy:

"Nizi, you have done something wrong by tying me to this Taihua Spiritual Monument. You are giving me a chance, haha!"

Behind him, Chen Ronglan looked unhappy, wondering why things had developed to this point. This demon was clearly an invader from the human world, so why did he gain the upper hand in the fight for the Taihua Spiritual Stele?

The merits accumulated by his Chen family for thousands of years seemed to have become a joke at this moment.

This was Chen Ronglan's negligence. If an ordinary demon came here, perhaps this trick of his would have succeeded.

Leading them into the fight for the spirit tablet and cutting off their possibility of taking action would be enough to buy enough time.

But Xue Che (Mitian) is different. He is an orthodox cultivator from the human world, and he has learned the power of the law of destiny in the true demon world.

Even if it was just a little bit of evidence, it was definitely not something that an ordinary spiritual cultivator like Chen Ronglan could get.

The combination of the two gave Xue Che a great advantage in the fight for ownership of the spirit stele.

Seeing Xue Che getting closer and closer to the Taihua Spiritual Stele, Chen Ronglan's anxiety became more obvious. He transmitted his message to Taoist Lin Yun, who also seemed to have made some kind of decision.

He stood up suddenly, spat out a mouthful of blood, and withdrew from the fight.

Since they are not deeply involved, they have ways to get out of it, but Chen Ronglan and Xue Che are different. The price they have to pay to break this stalemate is unimaginable.

Although his aura was a little weak, Lin Yun still bowed to Chen Ronglan, then turned around and left this secret place.

Seeing this, Xue Che just laughed a few times:

"Even if you let this kid go, what will happen? Can he still turn the tide with his abilities?"

Xue Che was quite disdainful of Taoist Yu Linyun.

“Although Fellow Daoist Lin Yun is a little ordinary, he is at least the only late-stage Spiritualization cultivator in this human world. With the help of my Chen family, there is still a way to contact the upper world.”

Xue Che's expression darkened.

If there really is another person from this world coming, and they are all besieged, maybe he won't be able to withstand it.

With a grunt:
"Oh, you, girl, have borrowed someone else's body to descend to the mortal world. Now that the location of the human world has changed, it's not that easy to descend to the mortal world!"

……

"The attack has begun again?"

Wei Zhong looked at the Demon Eye passage from afar. The spiritual and demonic energy inside it surged into the sky, and another invasion war was about to break out.

And it was even more violent than before. There were no less than three breaths of fifth-order demons alone. Fortunately, there were also quite a few gods on our side.

A confrontation was formed with it.

Wei Zhong threw the spirit boat in his hand away and ignored it. Instead, he circled into the interior of the Western Desert and gradually came to the direction of Fuyun Temple.

Looking at the huge force of destiny gathering in the sky, I felt deeply moved:

"I don't know where this temple found this rare treasure, the lotus platform, which can absorb so much luck and power."

Almost all the luck that Wei Zhong earned by spreading the "Spirit Planting Method" was taken away by him and turned into nutrients for the growth of the lotus platform. As the instigator of this matter, Guan Shi also gained a lot of benefits from it.

For example, at this moment, he is sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform, and his aura is becoming more and more harmonious, with faint signs of breaking through to the state of spiritual transformation.

Sitting cross-legged in the air, Wei Zhong took out the teacup and waited.

'In a few years at most, this person will succeed. When the lotus platform matures, the cause and effect will be eliminated, and that will be the time for me to take back the precious lotus.'

Wait silently.

Nine months passed, and the Jin Jue Xu Tian Formation outside the Demon Eye's defense line was finally broken by the demons' attack.

Endless demonic energy and demons poured into the outside world, engaging in a chaotic battle with the defending monks.

Bu Wenzhi spat out a mouthful of blood due to his concern. Wang Qianxi immediately raised his arm with a caring look on her face.
"Master!"

The latter shook his head:
"It's all right. The Jin Jue Xu Tian Formation has been broken. I am of no use here. I have to go to the back to activate the arrangements made by the seniors. Your formation skills are not bad, so come with me."

Wang Qianxi turned her head and looked at her brother and clansmen who were fighting on the battlefield with a worried look, as if she was reluctant to leave.

Bu Wenzhi sighed, stuffed a formation plate into his hand, and whispered:
"If you encounter danger, activate this disk. I will wait for your return in the back."

After saying this, he boarded the spirit boat and withdrew from the battlefield with many formation masters as Wang Qianxi watched.

In such a war, formation masters are extremely valuable skilled cultivators, especially fifth-level formation masters like Bu Wenzhi.

Huashen had already warned them that once the formation was broken, they must retreat quickly and return to the rear to start the next step of defense deployment.

The spirit boat flew away for only two breaths when a bone arrow emerged from the evil energy and pointed directly towards the spirit boat.

When the two collided, the spirit boat was attacked and the protective spiritual light immediately rose up, but the huge force still caused it to flip over several times.

This made the already seriously injured monks on the boat even worse.

Bu Wenzhi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a shocking voice: "Push all the middle-grade spirit stones beside the furnace down, and we will leave this place as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

The rest of the people hurriedly followed his orders. As the spirit stones burned in large quantities, the entire spirit boat quickly fled into the distance like a meteor with a tail flame.

The speed was so fast that even the follow-up arrow from the fourth-level demon could not catch up.

"Pah~pah~"

Black thunder exploded, wrapping the bone arrow inside.

Yuchi Yu walked out of the thunder, looked at the bone demon not far away, and said calmly:
"Fellow Daoist, why are you distracted when fighting with me?"

As he spoke, his spiritual power circulated and a pair of wings suddenly grew on his back, with black lightning attached to them, like a pair of broad giant wings of lightning.

Sensing the demon's tactics, the bone demon sneered and suddenly fired a rain of bone arrows in his hand:
"Do whatever you want!"

Such scenes are not uncommon on the battlefield where demonic energy and spiritual energy clash with each other.

Some people were equally powerful as the demons and fought for a long time, while others were at a shallow level and had little combat power, so they were killed in the blink of an eye.

There are also people who are invincible and regard their peers as minions...

All in all, the battlefield fell into extreme chaos.

The affected area also extended from dozens of miles of the Jin Jue Xu Tian Formation to a hundred miles.

Wei Zhong looked at the battlefield in the distance getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but think:
"This view is too useless. It's been almost a year, and he's still not at the stage of reaching the Divine Transformation stage. If we keep wasting time, the demons will be at the gate, and there will be no such good opportunity for advancement."

Amid the slander, there was a sudden explosion.

It turned out that the fifth-order Demon-Suppressing Tower that was pressing on the Demon Eye Passage was ultimately unable to withstand the attacks from so many God-transforming levels, and exploded to pieces.

The fragments swept across the battlefield, and both the demons and humans suffered serious losses.

Lightning surged in Xie Yuanping's palm, and he looked at the demons in front of him with a slightly solemn expression.

There are five demons in front of us, three in the early stage of level five and two in the middle stage.

Compared with them, the human race is not weak either.

Hongxu, Baiheng and Yu Mao were in the early stages of their spiritual transformation, and there were also Jie Yuanping and the Fairy Yihua who arrived despite being seriously injured.

The two forces were evenly matched, but what frightened Jie Yuanping was the obscure aura coming from the Demon Eye Channel.

It is definitely not an ordinary fifth-order demon, but most likely a great demon in the late fifth order.

"If we delay any further, this magic eye passage will have to be strengthened to the point where it can pass through. Fairy Yihua, do you have a good idea?"

The latter looked at the black magic carpet spreading out from the inside of the passage. It was covered with slippery tentacles, absorbing the corpses of nearby demons and humans and turning them into nutrients for growth.

While expanding the range, it also makes the space channel more stable.

"I do have a way to deal with it, but... once it is used, this place will probably become the next Green Vine Sea."

Hongxu et al. PS:

"Becoming a Jedi is better than being invaded by the demons. Fairy, why not give it a try?"

Seeing that everyone agreed, Fairy Yihua stopped trying to persuade them.

He took out an emerald green seed from his arms. It was wrapped in golden light, as if it was some kind of confinement technique.

After being freed from its restraints, the spirit seed madly absorbed the free spiritual energy in the air, sprouted and grew, and turned into a vine.

Such a fast speed shocked everyone present.

"go with!"

Yihua waved his hand, and the object fell towards the magic carpet below.

And as it falls, it continues to absorb spiritual energy from the air to rapidly grow and expand itself.

What's worse, it tasted the demonic energy from time to time, and finally absorbed enough nutrients, and a black vine extended from the inside.

This thing was so popular that it was accepted by everyone, causing everyone present to narrow their eyes.

"What the hell?"

The fifth-level demon immediately became suspicious when he saw this thing, and a bone blade fell on it, easily cutting it in half.

But this strange vine group did not die. Instead, it turned into two independent individuals, landed on both sides of the black magic carpet, and competed with it for nutrients.

Upon seeing this, several demons' eyebrows jumped and they felt something was wrong.

He used all the magic flames, magic blood and other means in his hands to spread out, covering the vine completely.

Xie Yuanping was a little hesitant when he saw this, but seeing the calm attitude of Fairy Yihua, he decided to wait and see.

With the response of the fifth-level demons, these vines were indeed broken into pieces, but they still had some vitality.

On the contrary, as the magic spread, the vines spread more and more widely, as if expanding its sowing range, and a large number of vines grew out from the magic carpet.

In just a few breaths, the magic carpet's extension speed was greatly slowed down.

"What a strange spiritual plant, no, it should be called a demonic plant. It not only steals spiritual energy, but also absorbs the demonic energy. It is much more domineering than the half-flowered water bug in the Polar Star Sea.

"Even if we succeed in defeating the demon in the future, it will be a hassle to deal with this thing."

Xie Yuanping was moved when he saw this scene.

Fairy Yihua said calmly:
"This vine cannot be removed by conventional means. The more you kill it, the more it grows. The only way to alleviate the problem is to restrict its growth space and cut off its spiritual energy supply.

"But that's a matter for later. Right now we still have to rely on these vines to fight the enemy."

Hongxu and others said in surprise:

"This thing is really overbearing."

Fairy Yihua shook her head:

“We have only just begun. If this vine is allowed to mature, the poisonous energy it emits will be enough to kill these demon cubs.

"But it may be difficult to wait until that moment."

The demons not far away also discovered the key. The leader sprinkled some kind of black powder, which actually slowed down the growth of the vines greatly.

"Okay, now it's my turn to go on stage!"

Xie Yuanping drew out a golden sword, and endless lightning spread from around him forward...

Wei Zhong looked at the battlefield in the distance and saw that its expansion had almost stopped, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, we didn't fight here, otherwise I really don't know whether I should protect Guanshi."

The other party's promotion is necessary both for the overall situation of the human world and for Baolian's maturity. Even if Wei Zhong taking Baolian away afterwards will trigger a backlash, he must take action.

After waiting for several months again, when the morning light rose one day, Wei Zhong opened his eyes and felt the changes in the energy in the dark.

"It's finally started, but I've been waiting so long!"
