Chapter 740 Breaking Through the Formation! Fighting a Fifth-Tier High-Grade Alien Race [Please Subscribe]

Qinglian Peak.

When Zhou Chun's second nascent soul returned from the wilderness, the Zhou family had already received a notification from True Person Xuanzhen and entered a state of combat readiness.

"After receiving the news, I have already arranged for people to begin the protective transfer of some important assets within the clan. Currently, backups of the rare demon beast bloodlines within the clan have been sent to places like Yang Kingdom, and some important spiritual herbs and medicines can also be transplanted and taken away at any time."

"Furthermore, Senior Xuanzhen has already given advance notice that several Nascent Soul stage cultivators from the alliance should be settling into our Zhou family's mountain gate within the next month. He hopes we can arrange suitable cave dwellings for them!"

Inside the cave, facing Zhou Chun's second Nascent Soul incarnation who had returned, Zhou Daoyi solemnly recounted the arrangements he had made.

The Zhou family is now quite large and powerful, with a large number of clansmen and a vast business empire.

The family's assets, including monsters, elixirs, and mineral veins, generate daily income.

Therefore, these systems cannot be stopped until the very end.

Moreover, even if operations were to cease, the Zhou family currently lacks a safe and spacious location to relocate and resettle these assets.

Basically, we can only extract the best parts and perform a rescue transfer.

However, in Zhou Chun's view, Zhou Daoyi's approach was still somewhat conservative and not decisive enough.

So he immediately said in a deep voice, "Now is the time to determine the survival of our human race. There's no need to be reluctant to give up things that should be abandoned. Those spirit fields and pastures outside the protective mountain array can be harvested directly. It's better to earn less than to let the enemy benefit!"

"The manpower in the wilderness can also be withdrawn. Since the invasion of the demon race in Longyuanze is an unchangeable fact, there is no need to garrison there. It's better to withdraw and strengthen the defense of the mountain gate!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Daoyi frowned and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "Has it really come to this?"

He then took a deep breath and nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll arrange for someone to do as you said, Zheng Chun."

Seeing this, Zhou Chun nodded slightly and said, "I will also stay in the mountain gate to cultivate in seclusion. However, if other Nascent Soul stage cultivators come to guard the area, let Fellow Daoist Luo receive them. Let them choose a cave to live in on one of the surrounding secondary peaks."

"I understand. Then I won't disturb Zhengchun's cultivation any longer."

As Zhou Daoyi finished speaking, he immediately took his leave and departed.

……

Yunling Mountains.

After Zhou Chun finished communicating with the second Nascent Soul incarnation through the secret technique, he also calmed his mind and began to meditate to recover.

Now that things have come to this, no matter how worried he is about the situation back home, there is no way he could leave the battlefield and return to his family on his own.

Therefore, instead of worrying about that side, it's better to conserve energy and prepare for the final battle, hoping to help the human race achieve a great victory.

If we can achieve a great victory over the alien alliance and successfully drive these aliens back to Tianman Plain, then at least half of the Nascent Soul cultivators recruited from this battlefield will be freed to go to Jing Kingdom to provide support.

By then, it won't be so easy for the Longyuanze demon race to cross the Jingguo defense line.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of the decisive battle was fast approaching.

On this day, a group of Nascent Soul stage cultivators gathered once again in the golden palace to listen to the teachings of the incarnation of the Tai Geng God.

Compared to half a month ago, there are now more Nascent Soul stage cultivators present, all of whom were transferred from other battlefields during the past two weeks.

At this moment, there were as many as forty-nine Nascent Soul cultivators gathered in the golden palace. If we include the incarnation of Tai Geng Divine Venerable, there were as many as four late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and nine mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

On the main seat in the hall, the avatar of the Tai Geng Divine Venerable suddenly rose to his feet. His gaze swept over the forty-eight Nascent Soul stage cultivators on either side of the hall, and with a solemn expression, he said in a deep voice, "Today's battle, on a small scale, concerns the success or failure of our human race's millennia-long undertaking; on a larger scale, it concerns the life and death of our human race!"

"Therefore, in today's battle, you must all give your all, fight for our human race and for yourselves, and carve out a new future for the millions of humans behind you!"

"In this battle, there is no retreat; anyone who retreats without authorization will be severely punished afterward, while those who kill the enemy and achieve merit will be richly rewarded!"

At this point, the man raised his arm and shouted, "All for humanity! We will prevail!"

"For the sake of humanity, we will prevail!"

Zhou Chun and the other Nascent Soul stage cultivators stood up one after another, and shouted in unison with firm expressions.

Just as the incarnation of Tai Geng God said, things have come to this point, and there is no turning back for them.

Even dying on the battlefield is better than fleeing in the face of battle and dying at the hands of the Tai Geng God Venerable's true form who was supervising the battle!

No one would think that the method of "escaping through the nascent soul" could work on a Nascent Soul Venerable.

After the oath-taking ceremony, everyone left the golden palace and went outside.

Outside, in the main camp, an army of over 100,000 cultivators was already lined up in neat formation, ready to go.

The avatar of Tai Geng God did not give any pre-battle speech to these people. He simply waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

Then, streaks of light rose from the ground, and various colors of spiritual light shone in the sky, shooting towards the Yunling Mountains like a meteor shower.

Those Qi Refining stage cultivators who had not yet mastered the ability to fly also boarded the large flying boat and traveled with the team.

Before long, the army arrived at the outer edge of the Yunling Mountains.

Then, one after another, flying boats filled with cultivators landed in various parts of the mountains. All the cultivators on the flying boats disembarked, assembled, and formed an attack formation.

The alien alliance had set up numerous array formations and restrictions in the Yunling Mountains. Only after breaking through the outer array formations and restrictions could those mid- to low-level cultivators reach the core area where the original Zhongding Sect's mountain gate was located.

However, the array formations and restrictions in the outer area were clearly unable to stop the Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

Therefore, the human army's attack was divided into two routes. One route was led by Golden Core cultivators, who led the main force step by step, eliminating the alien strongholds blocking their way. The other route was led by the avatar of Tai Geng, who led Zhou Chun and others straight to the core area.

Nascent Soul stage cultivators are incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, Zhou Chun and the others had already arrived above the original location of the Zhongding Sect's mountain gate.

Looking down from the air, the most exquisite part of the Yunling Mountains below is now completely obscured by white clouds and mist. Even some Nascent Soul stage cultivators, using their spiritual vision abilities, find it difficult to see through the clouds and mist and glimpse the scene inside.

As Zhou Chun and the others were admiring the illusory sea of ​​clouds below, the avatar of the Tai Geng Divine Venerable said calmly, "The Five Elements Spirit Clan does possess some resources. This [Qiankun Five Elements Life and Death Array], under the command of the five Spirit Kings of the Five Elements Spirit Clan, can withstand an attack from more than three times its own strength. Even among our human race, it is a very impressive array!"

"Since Senior Tai Geng knows the origin of this formation, do you have a way to break it?"

Upon hearing the words of the avatar of the Divine Venerable Tai Geng, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator boldly posed a question.

Zhou Chun and the others also turned their gazes toward the incarnation of the God Tai Geng.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, the avatar of the Tai Geng Divine Lord shook his head slightly, his expression unchanged, and said, "No, the reason this formation is so powerful is because it has deeply grasped the mysteries of the Five Elements' generation and destruction. Apart from breaking the formation with brute force, only some legendary great supernatural powers and special methods can counter it!"

At this point, he gave Zhou Chun a deep look and said, "It's a pity that Fellow Daoist Zhou's mountain-carrying tortoise's cultivation is still a bit lacking, otherwise the [Primordial Magnetic Divine Light] would be just right to reverse the five elements and suppress the changes in this formation!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun quickly lowered his head slightly and said, "This junior is incompetent and has disappointed Senior Tai Geng."

"Alright, this [Five Elements of Heaven and Earth Creation and Destruction Formation] is powerful, but it has its limits. Our strength is already sufficient to break through the formation's upper limit. Now, follow me and charge into the formation to defeat the enemy!"

As the incarnation of the Tai Geng God spoke, he took the lead and charged down.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun and the others did not dare to be negligent. They immediately used their magic weapons to protect themselves and rushed down after him.

Actually, charging directly into the enemy lines like that is extremely dangerous.

Because once trapped in the formation, the powerful alien beings inside can use the formation's advantages to concentrate their attacks on those who have entered.

However, the benefits of doing so are also obvious.

The two powerful figures clashed fiercely within the formation, and the supernatural powers unleashed by either side would exert a tremendous strain on the formation.

The original forty-nine Nascent Soul stage cultivators were already able to destroy the [Qiankun Five Elements Life and Death Array]. If we add the attack of dozens of fifth-level alien experts, the array will naturally be broken even faster!

That's why the incarnation of Tai Geng God Venerable chose such an extreme method to break the formation.

After Zhou Chun rushed into the formation, the first thing he did was to use the [Golden Cauldron Domain] divine power to resist the restriction, confinement and displacement of the formation's power with his own domain.

Other Nascent Soul stage cultivators who, like him, mastered the Dharma Domain Divine Power, basically did the same.

Only by doing this can they minimize the risk of being picked off one by one and eliminated by divide and conquer.

While activating his Dharma Domain divine power, Zhou Chun released all four demon king spirit pets without hesitation. Then, Fu Shan Jun and Yin Long Jun, who also possessed Dharma Domain divine power, quickly activated their Dharma Domains as well.

In the next instant, five-colored spiritual light flashed within the formation, and various divine powers of the five elements bombarded these intruders.

Golden sword energy, azure divine lightning, fiery red divine light, black water dragon, earthen-yellow boulder...

Various elemental divine abilities, powerful enough to harm even Nascent Soul stage cultivators, materialized under the power of the formation and launched indiscriminate attacks on the intruders.

Furthermore, powerful alien warriors who had been waiting in full battle array unleashed various supernatural abilities and magical treasures to concentrate their fire on those who entered the formation.

Zhou Chun quickly sensed the danger and realized that he had been targeted by multiple enemies.

Without thinking twice, he quickly hid under the mountain king.

Immediately, a magnificent silver blade of energy slashed through the sky and landed on the protective barrier erected by Lord Fushan, easily piercing through it and landing on Lord Fushan's tortoise shell.

The sharp blade energy slashed a deep gash, about ten feet deep, directly cutting through the tortoise shell of Lord Fushan!

This shows just how terrifying this strike was!

The silver blade energy was only the first attack; the next attack was a huge, deep red fireball.

Boom!

Before the fireball could even get close to Lord Fushan, it was detonated by a bolt of lightning from Lord Yinlong, who reacted quickly.

However, because they were too close, the powerful explosive force still managed to engulf Mount Fu.

The terrifying force of the explosion also blasted blackened cracks into Mount Fushan's body and blew away many fragments of its shell.

Even the earthen-yellow sacred mountain on its back was blasted into many fragments.

Before the aftershocks of the explosion had even subsided, a purplish-black spear suddenly shot into the sea of ​​fire, striking the wound created by the silver blade's slash.

This blow finally pierced through the thin layer of tortoise shell remaining beneath the wound, causing Lord Fushan to let out a roar filled with pain.

Then, a hazy gray [Primal Magnetic Divine Light] erupted from his body, instantly forcefully expelling the purplish-black spear that had pierced his body.

However, the power left behind by this magical artifact and a peculiar toxin were preventing his injuries from healing. Even with his "Undying Body" supernatural ability, his wounds still could not heal quickly.

Fortunately, after surviving this round of attacks, Silver Dragon Lord, Phoenix Lord, and Mu Sang all reacted and immediately took effective countermeasures.

Silver Dragon Lord and Phoenix Lord flew to the left and right of Mount Fu, respectively, helping to defend against the five elemental attacks generated by the [Qiankun Five Elements Life and Death Array].

Mu Sang then went to Fu Shan Jun and used the [Heavenly Rain] divine power to heal his injuries.

However, the power left by that purplish-black spear was too strong and strange. Even with the healing power of the [Heavenly Rain], Fu Shanjun's wounds did not heal very well.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately instructed Fu Shanjun to fully activate the [Primordial Magnetic Domain] divine power to isolate himself from outside observation. Then, he quickly waved his hand and took out the [Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Jar], pouring half of the [Purifying Holy Water] that he had already prepared and refined into a pot onto Fu Shanjun's wound.

Sure enough, under the purification of the [Purifying Holy Water], the alien power and toxins that were hindering the recovery of Lord Fushan's injuries were immediately purified and dissipated.

The previously suppressed [Undying Body] divine power is now taking effect rapidly.

But the enemy who had attacked earlier would obviously not stand idly by and watch Zhou Chun and his servant recover.

Soon, a figure flashed on the ground near Zhou Chun and his servant. A barbarian king from the Earth Barbarian Tribe, wielding a silver-black battle axe, suddenly appeared and raised his axe to strike at Lord Fushan.

The aura emanating from this barbarian king was a staggering fifth-tier superior grade!

It is obvious that Zhou Chun's act of killing two barbarian kings on the White Stone Plateau has deeply angered the strongest barbarian king of the barbarian tribe, to the point that he would rather ignore those late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and kill Zhou Chun first.

The strength of this fifth-tier superior barbarian king was clearly beyond the control of the [Primal Magnetic Domain] divine power.

After entering the domain of the law, his speed only decreased slightly, and he continued to charge forward while completely withstanding the pressure of the [Primal Magnetic Divine Light].

Under these circumstances, Lord Fushan dared not rely on his own defense to withstand the attack any longer, and hurriedly urged the earthen-yellow stone mountain on his back to smash down on the barbarian king.

However, when the stone mountain, which was heavier than a real mountain peak, crashed down, it was easily cleaved away by the barbarian king with a single axe swing, and almost shattered into pieces!

The barbarian king only paused slightly before continuing his attack on Lord Fushan as if unaffected.

Under these circumstances, Lord Fushan had no choice but to release Zhou Chun first, and then unleashed his [Transform into a Mountain] divine power.

The giant tortoise lay on the ground, its body shimmering with a yellowish-brown spiritual light, resembling a colossal tortoise mountain standing on the earth.

The fifth-tier superior-grade barbarian king cleaved the Turtle Mountain with his battle axe, and the powerful force was transmitted to the earth below, causing the mountain to collapse and the ground to cave in instantly.

However, despite such power, Turtle Mountain was not cleaved through by the giant axe; only jagged cracks appeared.

Before the barbarian king could retract his battle axe and unleash a second strike, Zhou Chun's servants had already launched their attack.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, Zhou Chun dared not hold back at all. He directly activated the primal power of the [Moon Toad Pearl], unleashing the strongest power of this spiritual treasure and releasing a powerful "Taiyin Extinction Divine Light" towards the opponent.

The white icy light fell on the barbarian king, who was clad in stone armor, and instantly froze him in solid ice.

But before Zhou Chun could be happy, the ice on his body suddenly burst open with a "bang".

The [Heavenly Thunder Annihilation Slash] divine power unleashed by the Silver Dragon Lord was directly blasted apart by the Barbarian King's counter-punch!

In the end, the attack that truly had some effect on this barbarian king, causing him to let out a slight cry of pain, was actually the [Burning Heart Flame] divine power activated by Feng Yuanjun.

Such attacks, which directly scorch the will and mind, completely ignore the Barbarian King's powerful physical defense and resistance.

However, the will of the barbarian king of the Earth Barbarian Clan, who was able to cultivate to the fifth rank of superior, must be incredibly strong.

Even if the [Burning Heart Flame] could slightly affect his mind and will, it could not possibly cause him any significant harm.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately ordered the four demon king spirit pets to set up the "Heavenly Absolute Four Symbols Formation".

He then activated the primal power of the Moon Toad Pearl once again, unleashing the second "Taiyin Extinction Divine Light".

The white icy light fell on the Barbarian King, and soon the previous scene was repeated, unable to harm this fifth-tier superior Barbarian King in the slightest.

This level of fifth-grade superior body refinement cultivation is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary spiritual treasures. Unless Zhou Chun can master the "Nine Transformations of the Holy Spirit: Moon Toad Chapter", he might be able to slightly injure the opponent!

As the four demon kings and their spirit pets began to set up the "Heavenly Absolute Four Symbols Formation," the barbarian king seemed to sense something as well. He immediately roared and once again swung his battle axe, unleashing a world-shaking strike at Turtle Mountain!

A silver blade of light, seemingly possessing the power to create heaven and earth, tore through the sky and instantly landed on the tortoise mountain.

Then a loud "boom" was heard, and the entire Turtle Mountain collapsed and shattered in the attack!

It is obvious that even the incredibly powerful Fushan Jun could not overcome the gap of two minor realms and truly withstand the direct attack of a fifth-tier high-grade expert!

However, the collapsed and shattered Turtle Mountain did not manifest the corpse of Lord Fushan, but instead transformed into a broken piece of turtle shell.

It turned out that Lord Fushan had neutralized this fatal blow by successfully re-cultivating the secret technique of "Spiritual Turtle Calamity Transformation"!

At the same time, Zhou Chun, feeling ignored, directly activated the [Qiongqi Enters Dream] divine power and fully unleashed the [Formless Gengjin Divine Light] divine power, delivering his strongest attack!

A golden beam of light, several feet long, flashed through the air and instantly landed on the barbarian king's head, which was as large as a water buffalo.

Instantly, the stone helmet on the barbarian king's head shattered, and a crimson flower of blood shot out from the crack.

They finally broke through!

Looking at the spray of blood, Zhou Chun felt a surge of excitement.

Before this, he had only fought against Xuanzhen Zhenren, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. However, at that time, his supernatural powers were not yet fully developed, and he was only thinking about saving his life. He had no intuitive understanding of the protective methods of such a powerful person.

Unfortunately, the fifth-tier superior-grade barbarian king was known for his thick skin, tough flesh, and strong defense.

So much so that in the previous exchanges, Zhou Chun and his spirit pet's attacks couldn't even break through his defenses, which was truly disheartening and hopeless.

Now that the opponent's defenses have finally been broken and they are bleeding, even though it came at the cost of my own full-force attack, it still greatly boosts my confidence.

At least let Zhou Chun know that he now has the strength to injure a fifth-tier high-grade expert!

In contrast to Zhou Chun's excitement, the barbarian king was furious and annoyed.

He hadn't expected that Lord Fushan had actually cultivated the Substitution Tribulation Secret Technique, rendering all his previous attacks futile.

Even more unexpectedly, Zhou Chun, a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, was able to break through his defenses and cause him to bleed.

Roar!

A roar erupted from the barbarian king's mouth, and terrifying sound waves swept in all directions, causing Zhou Chun's excited mind to sway and feel somewhat dizzy.

Then the barbarian king turned around and swung his axe, a silver blade of light instantly piercing the air and striking towards Zhou Chun.

Fortunately, Zhou Chun's physical strength was not low, and his mind did not completely lose control because of the roar. He hurriedly mustered his remaining strength and once again unleashed a [Formless Gengjin Divine Light] to strike the silver blade light. At the same time, he activated his natal magic weapon [Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron] to block in front of him.

Bang!

The silver blade light clashed with the golden divine light in mid-air, easily shattering the golden divine light. Then, with an unstoppable strike, it cleaved the golden cauldron away, causing it to crash heavily onto Zhou Chun, who was wearing a moon-white protective immortal robe, sending him flying over a hundred feet.

But Zhou Chun managed to withstand the attack, only spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Before the enraged Barbarian King could unleash his second axe strike, the four demon kings' spirit pets finally managed to activate the secret technique of the "Heavenly Annihilation Four Symbols Formation".

As the phantoms of four giant beasts rose, they forcibly created a new array domain within the [Five Elements of Heaven and Earth Array], trapping the fifth-tier superior barbarian king within it.

Trapped within the array, the fifth-tier superior barbarian king initially paid no attention.

With his fifth-order superior body refinement cultivation, the suppressive power of the array domain was actually only slightly more influential on him than the [Yuan Magnetic Domain]. He was even more free to move around than the two-headed black dragon in the [True Dragon Possession] state at the time.

But when he swung his battle axe at one of the giant beasts, he realized the problem.

The giant beast, which should have been unable to withstand his axe blow, was able to absorb the magical power of the other three giant beasts under the blessing of the secret technique, thus doubling its own supernatural power and unleashing a strength no less than that of a fifth-tier high-grade expert!

Furthermore, Fu Shanjun, who was previously unable to exert much influence on him due to his cultivation level, now has a greatly increased power of the [Primordial Magnetic Divine Light] through the amplification of the array's power, enough to make him feel a bit strained.
