Dragon's Origin

Chapter 259: Terrifying Attack Formation (Part 2)

Attack formations also vary in strength. Normal attack formations are almost all lethal, and only formation masters, at the very least, can even touch them. Ordinary formation masters simply aren't capable.

Even if the array stones are made by a master, not just anyone can activate them with spiritual energy. Attack formations require not only a sufficient quantity of spiritual energy but also a continuous and stable supply over a long period. This is why many attack formations are fixed in natural conditions like earth fire veins rather than being artificially deployed.

The five Daoist priests of the array have reached the level of grandmasters in their formation cultivation, but they are still unable to activate attack formations on their own. They can only use pre-made array stones and hand them over to Old Ancestor Lingxu to control. In the entire Old Monarch Hall, only a few people, including the Old Ancestor, can activate attack array stones.

Even for the old Daoist priest, using array stones to launch an attack formation against Wang Sheng while ensuring that Wang Sheng can sense the formation using the "Travel" character, is no easy task.

You must know that Wang Sheng needs time to sense the formation fluctuations using the "Travel" character, and the most difficult part of an attack formation is its contained state before release. If he directly attacked Wang Sheng, even if Wang Sheng wasn't killed or injured, he probably wouldn't be able to sense the formation fluctuations. The old Daoist priest personally taking action at a super-defying difficulty level is to maintain the attack formation in a contained state, about to attack but not attacking, so Wang Sheng can thoroughly sense the formation fluctuations.

Apart from the old Daoist priest, even if all the formation experts in the world were gathered, even those legendary formation grandmasters, none of them could achieve this. Only the old Daoist priest's defying cultivation, coupled with his understanding of the essence of Tai Chi, allows him to slowly dissolve those attacking forces using Tai Chi techniques without causing drastic changes in the formation's fluctuations.

Even so, the old Daoist priest first experimented with a stone to ensure that he could maintain the attack state before starting the attack formation test.

Wang Sheng and the old Daoist priest both rested and recuperated for the entire night, adjusting their spirits and willpower to their peak. They each stood in their positions, with Wang Sheng fully protected, padded with who knows what, making him look bloated. Only then did the experiment begin.

The old Daoist priest activated the formation, concentrating on controlling it, maintaining it in a state of about to be released but not released. Wang Sheng was also fully focused on sensing the formation fluctuations.

In the basic formation fluctuation sensing training, Wang Sheng didn't have much contact with the attack part at the beginning. This was his first time. The first time also meant unfamiliarity, which also meant it would take a little longer.

Although Wang Sheng could complete the sensing of most slightly complex protective, binding, or even illusionary formations within an hour, this much simpler attack formation took Wang Sheng nearly two hours.

The old Daoist priest was already sweating profusely after holding on for more than an hour. However, the old Daoist priest was still the old Daoist priest, and he managed to hold on for another half an hour in this state until he saw Wang Sheng raise his hand, signaling that he could release it.

Boom, the formation, carrying the spiritual energy injected by the old Daoist priest, bombarded Wang Sheng head-on. This was a wide-range attack formation, and its large attack range meant that the attack power would be dispersed over a large area. Even if it directly targeted Wang Sheng, Wang Sheng would only bear a small portion of the attack power.

The problem was that the old Daoist priest had been continuously injecting spiritual energy into this formation for two consecutive hours. No one knew how terrifying the spiritual energy in this formation was. If the old Daoist priest had directly attacked, even the entire Old Monarch Hall would have been reduced to dust under the old Daoist priest's two-hour continuous attack.

Such violent power struck Wang Sheng head-on at a speed that made it impossible for people to react. The old Daoist priest realized something was wrong as soon as the formation was released, but at this time, even the old Daoist priest couldn't control the formation anymore. Once the attack power was released, it immediately followed the established attack trajectory and attacked wildly.

Puff, a huge cloud of dust rose directly in front of the formation. All the areas that were attacked, whether they were stones, trees, or walls, were instantly turned into powder.

The sky was filled with dust, obscuring the entire area. In everyone's eyes, they only saw a cloud of extremely fine dust of various colors flying, and they couldn't see anything else.

It's over! Looking at this hellish scene, even the old Daoist priest felt a sense of despair in his heart. Who would have thought that the formation power accumulated by maintaining the state of about to be released but not released for two hours would be so terrifying?

What was the difference between this and the old Daoist priest's fully charged, head-on strike? Even if Wang Sheng only suffered a small portion of the wide-range attack, it was still the old Daoist priest's spiritual energy attack that had been condensed and compressed for two hours. Not to boast, but apart from some guys in the core of the Thousand绝Ground, there was no expert in the outside world who could withstand the old Daoist priest's strike.

The five Daoist priests of the array were directly dumbfounded, waving their hands, fanning away the choking dust, coughing non-stop, and looking at the scene like a human炼狱, their minds were blank, and there was nothing left.

Such a big commotion, and it happened near the Sutra Depository. The masters of the Old Monarch Hall almost arrived instantly. Only after seeing the figure of the old Daoist priest did they feel relieved. But everyone didn't know what had happened and asked the five Daoist priests one after another.

The few Daoist priests didn't know how to explain everything in front of them at all. Old Daoist Lingxu looked at this scene in disbelief, and his heart was full of regret.

There was too much dust, and it was mixed with too much of the old Daoist priest's spiritual energy. Everyone present, including the old Daoist priest, couldn't sense the situation inside the dust. The old Daoist priest himself couldn't do anything and could only wait for the dust, as fine as smoke, to slowly dissipate.

Perhaps, there was still a glimmer of hope. In despair, the old Daoist priest suddenly remembered the series of miracles Wang Sheng had created, and his heart suddenly filled with a lot of anticipation. Never before had the old Daoist priest looked forward to the appearance of miracles as much as he did now.

The most ⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥in⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥hair!

Perhaps the heavens also heard the old Daoist priest's devout prayers, and a familiar voice suddenly came from the dust: "Old Daoist, your attack is too powerful, isn't it? Fortunately, I was fully protected, otherwise I would have been hung up directly."

Hearing this voice, the old Daoist priest's hanging heart instantly dropped. There are indeed miracles in this world, as long as Wang Sheng is alive.

Looking at the old Daoist priest's expression of escaping from death, everyone around was speechless. As for Wang Sheng's words without respect for elders in front of so many people, everyone pretended they had never heard it.
