Chapter 68 The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation: All Saints Flee

The Twelve Kunlun Immortals arrived and, without saying a word, launched a fierce attack on the Three Immortals of Sanxiao.

However, to their shock, even with the combined efforts of the twelve innate deities, they were still forced to retreat by the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, coughing up blood in a frenzy.

If other cultivators hadn't joined the attack on the Three Immortals, they would probably be dead by now.

"Impossible, how can the Three Immortals be so strong?"

Guang Chengzi was horrified.

Taiyi Zhenren said in a deep voice, "The Three Immortals of Sanxiao, the Three Teachings, were originally one family. What is the meaning of your actions in aiding and abetting evil?"

Yunxiao coldly replied, "Bah! Who's family with you? My master separated from them long ago! Calling him 'Uncle-Master' is only out of consideration for past relations!"

Upon hearing this, the twelve Kunlun Immortals were all enraged:

"How dare you!"

"You don't know your place!"

When Yuanshi Tianzun heard this, he was also angered.

"What an arrogant young man!"

Then he said to Taiqing and the others, "Everyone, hold on to this demon-sealing formation for a few more breaths. I will kill those few horned, furry, egg-born brats and then come!"

For Yuanshi, suppressing and killing the Three Immortals was merely a matter of a few breaths.

After all, he is a Heavenly Saint.

Even if the Three Immortals of Sanxiao are strong, can they be stronger than a sage?

Yuanshi abandoned the Demon-Sealing Formation and charged towards the Three Immortals.

The overwhelming pressure of the sage swept across heaven and earth, creating a thunderous roar.

The three fairies trembled all over, but they still managed to hold back their tears.

"Is this the power of a saint?"

Yunxiao gritted her teeth and said to Qiongxiao and Bixiao, "My two sisters, set up the Yellow River Nine Bends Formation!"

"Okay, sister!"

The two women agreed, made hand seals, and immediately began to cast spells, summoning the Hunyuan Golden Bucket and using the Golden Dragon Scissors as the array's core.

Suddenly, a massive array appeared in everyone's sight.

There it was: a formation stretching to the heavens and earth, its might resembling the Yellow River. A chilling wind howled, its chill penetrating to the bone; black mist swirled, obscuring the sun and moon. Vast and boundless, shrouded in darkness and gloom. A chilling aura soared to the heavens, a dark haze blanketed the earth. It extinguished the soul and destroyed the spirit; even a thousand years of cultivation would be reduced to a mere pie in the sky. It damaged the spirit and weakened the will; though one might escape countless calamities, one would still stumble and fall. As the saying goes: even immortals cannot reach it, for it will strip away the three flowers on the head; even if Buddha were to face calamity, it would extinguish the five vital energies within the chest. Encountering this formation, calamity is inescapable; how can a true immortal hide when faced with it?

The Three Immortals set up the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, shaking the primordial world and shocking countless powerful beings.

"This...this Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is far too terrifying!"

"Even though I wasn't in the formation, I could still feel the terrifying, soul-destroying power!"

"Such power... even a saint entering it would likely perish..."

The primordial beings trembled in fear.

Although the Three Immortals of Sanxiao were only Great Luo Golden Immortals, the terrifying power of the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation made them tremble to the depths of their souls.

At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun, holding the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, with auspicious clouds of heaven above his head, adorned with thousands of golden flowers and dangling pearls, entered the formation, riding on auspicious clouds.

Upon entering the formation, Yuanshi Tianzun immediately sensed a terrifying aura that could damage immortality, causing the laws of his sacred body to become disordered and fragments of his rules to fall off.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable was immediately terrified.

"What's going on? How could this Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation damage my sage's body?"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable's expression changed drastically, his pupils suddenly contracting: "Not good! This formation is strange..."

With that, Yuanshi Tianzun turned and fled outside the formation!

He actually tried to run away!

The beings of the primordial world were stunned by this sight!

What they didn't know was that the Three Immortals of Sanxiao had been tainted by the primordial ancestral energy, and even a trace of it was incredibly terrifying.

Furthermore, over the past thousand years, the primordial primordial energy within them has been integrated into their Dao bodies.

Every gesture, every breath, is different from any other creature in the primordial world; its power is unparalleled.

However, a hothead dared to shout from outside the formation:

"Master is mighty! Master is invincible! The Three Immortals are doomed! Master has made his move, why don't you ants kneel down and surrender immediately?"

"We, the disciples of the Chan Sect, will fight to the death alongside our ancestor, Yuanshi Tianzun, and will never retreat!"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi's face twitched violently, and he thought to himself, "Which scoundrel of a disciple is this?"

As soon as he reached the exit of the formation, Yuanshi Tianzun tried to escape.

Looking up suddenly, he saw Huanglong Zhenren was spending his primordial spirit and vital energy frantically sealing off the exit of the Yellow River Nine Bends Formation.

"puff."

Upon seeing this scene, Yuanshi Tianzun almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

What is that bastard Huang Long doing?!

Holy crap, he's actually... sealing off the exits?!

"Achoo—"

Yuanshi Tianzun finally couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of golden holy blood.

Master Huanglong was shocked and hurriedly cried out, "Master? Master, why are you spitting blood? Master, don't worry, I'll be fine soon. This breach will be repaired soon, you can go in and kill them all!"

As Huanglong Zhenren spoke, he worked even harder to repair the gap.

"Ahhh!!!"

Yuanshi Tianzun coughed up another mouthful of blood.

"You damned wretch! When I unleash my power, I will surely suppress you beneath Qilin Cliff for ten thousand years!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable roared wildly.

He's going crazy!!!

This is such a terrible, exploitative job!

woohoo-

Before Yuanshi could even get angry, a fierce wind suddenly arose behind his head.

Yuanshi suddenly turned around and saw the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation descending with overwhelming pressure.

Yuanshi was so frightened that his scalp tingled. He gritted his teeth and summoned the Pangu Banner.

Yuanshi Tianzun felt deeply humiliated!

To deal with mere juniors, they even used their trump card, the Pangu Banner!

boom--

The Pangu Banner fluttered, and the Heaven-Opening Blade swept out wildly.

Rumble...

But the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation swayed precariously, and Yuanshi forcefully cleaved a gap in it, like a pitch-black crack.

With a glance, he saw the destructive energy of immortals surging from within the formation. The Primordial Celestial Venerable was terrified and, without hesitation, transformed into a stream of light and slipped into the gap to escape.

"Oh dear, he got away!"

Bixiao stomped her foot and muttered in dissatisfaction.

Yunxiao laughed, "He's lucky he ran fast. Sisters, shall we go save our senior first?"

Bixiao and Qiongxiao nodded: "Okay, eldest sister!"

Nuwa, Taiqing, Zhunti, and Jieyin were greatly alarmed when they saw the Three Immortals of Sanxiao charging towards them with overwhelming force.

"Is Yuanshi really that useless? He can't even defeat three juniors?"

Zhunti snorted coldly.

Nuwa said, "Everyone, now is not the time to argue! The Human Race's Holy King is about to be sealed away. Let's free up our hands and kill those three juniors first, shall we?"

The other saints all agreed: "Excellent!"

Therefore, after discussion, Nuwa continued to suppress the Demon-Sealing Formation, while Taiqing, Zhunti, and Jieyin, the three saints, resisted the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation together.

However, when Taiqing and the other two entered the formation, they were just as horrified as Yuanshi had been before them!

"This...this...is this the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation? Its power is so terrifying?!"

"Not good! This formation can kill even a saint! Run!"

Taiqing shouted and waved his hand. Thousands of rays of light and auspicious colors appeared, and the Taiji diagram transformed into a golden bridge connecting the outside of the winding Yellow River formation.

Taiqing was the first to step onto the Golden Bridge and escape.

Using the Seven Treasures Tree and the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit as cover, Zhunti and Jieyin hurriedly stepped onto the Golden Bridge and escaped from the formation.
