Chapter 218: Star Array Breaking [4K]
They continued their fierce attack for a whole day, and when the treasure ship's stored spiritual energy was completely exhausted, they discovered that the Big Dipper Star Array could not be broken at all.
It was at this time that the Lord of Canghai Sect finally appeared above the sky.
"Seven bright and two dark, nine star towers, this Big Dipper Nine Stars Formation is indeed not simple."
Looking at the formation in front of him, the Canghai Sect Master spoke calmly, and then said indifferently: "If I hadn't been prepared, it might have taken a lot of effort to break this formation."
After he finished speaking, the leader of the Canghai Sect spoke calmly and was about to start breaking the formation.
Shui Hanqing, who was standing below, saw this and said with a slightly changed expression, "Senior, my husband once said that if this formation is completely broken before he breaks through, then it means that there will be no hope of achieving enlightenment."
"I will remind him then and ask him to give up the final breakthrough, so that the seniors will have nothing to lose."
Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Canghai's pupils suddenly turned cold and a shocking murderous intent emerged in his mind.
But a moment later, he suppressed his murderous intent, smiled and said, "Don't worry, what I said before is absolutely true."
"As long as I get what I want, I will not harm anyone in the Ye family, and I will even grant you the opportunity to achieve enlightenment."
Seeing that Sect Master Canghai stopped, Shui Hanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Right now, Ye Linyuan is at the last moment of breakthrough. If he can delay a little time, he might have more confidence in dealing with the Lord of Canghai Sect.
As for the leader of Canghai Sect, although his face seemed calm as water, his heart was no longer calm.
Some people once speculated that he might be a superior golden elixir, but he never showed his true strength, so most people regarded this news as a joke.
Only the Lord of Canghai Sect himself knows that he is actually a genuine superior golden elixir.
He used to be the ninth true disciple of the great Nascent Soul sect Haohai Sect, and also the youngest true disciple.
At that time, before the Canghai Sect was destroyed, he had just broken through the ninth level of foundation building. In order to save his life, he hastily broke through to the Golden Core level.
However, because his magic power was not perfect enough, although he had achieved the great perfection of the golden elixir, his superior golden elixir was still not perfect enough, and the seventh elixir pattern had a slight flaw.
It was also because of this that his cultivation stagnated at the perfection of the middle stage of the Golden Core, and he was never sure of breaking through to the late stage of the Golden Core.
According to the estimation of Sect Master Canghai, as long as he swallowed a golden elixir from a fellow practitioner who had cultivated a superior golden elixir, he would be able to repair this flaw and break through to the late stage of the golden elixir.
Ye Linyuan is a man of extraordinary talent, and seems to be no less talented than he was in the past. Moreover, he has the background of Cangyuebei and the Second Elder. Once he breaks through the Golden Core realm, he will surely be able to cultivate a superior Golden Core.
As long as he waits for him to break through the golden elixir and then swallows it, the leader of Canghai Sect will be sure to break through the late golden elixir stage and may even go further to give birth to the eighth elixir pattern.
"I've been waiting for so many years. I can wait a little longer."
Li Xuangeng's mind was in turmoil. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and resisted the urge to take action immediately.
The relationship between fellow practitioners is very special. They are often wary of each other's strength, but at the same time hope that the other party has a stronger foundation.
Because only by devouring powerful fellow practitioners can one gain a stronger understanding of the Tao and accumulate a deeper foundation.
For Li Xuangeng, he couldn't wait to devour Ye Linyuan, but at the same time he was hoping that Ye Linyuan could make a more perfect breakthrough.
Once Ye Lin sees no hope of success and really chooses to give up breaking through and commit suicide, his hundreds of years of waiting will be in vain.
Even if Ye Linyuan succeeded in breaking through in the end, the breaking of the formation would affect Ye Linyuan's condition, causing flaws in the forged golden elixir, which would be a huge loss for himself.
"It will be soon. I will wait for him to successfully break through and pass the tribulation before I take action. These formations are not a big problem after all."
While the outside world was in confrontation, Ye Linyuan was at the most critical moment of breakthrough.
But he was seen concentrating all his energy on his body, based on the Taoist foundation of the Bright Moon over the Sea, and integrating the four pseudo-magical powers of the Bright Moon in the Nine Skies, the Long Autumn Sky, the Splendor of the White Moon, and the Shadow of the Bright River.
Coupled with the golden elixir's soul and the whole body's true essence, all these forces are intertwined together, absorbing the majestic spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and little by little they gather into the dazzling golden elixir pattern.
I don’t know how long it took, but all the foundations were completely integrated and transformed into a gorgeous golden elixir with nine elixir patterns.
"It's done."
"The best golden elixir - the bright moon rises from the sea."
Ye Linyuan slowly opened his eyes, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Compared to the Golden Lotus Planted in the Sea of Fire in his previous life, the Rising Moon from the Sea in this life was of higher quality, and had actually reached the level of the legendary Nine-Patterned Golden Pill.
You know, the Nine-Patterned Golden Pill is the most top-grade superior golden pill. There will be no bottleneck before breaking through to the Golden Pill Great Perfection in the future. It can be said that it is a guarantee to reach the realm of Golden Pill Great Perfection.
The Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir is extremely rare. Even in a Nascent Soul sect, one is qualified to become the master of a peak and is a true seed of the Nascent Soul True Lord.
Of course, these are all things that happened later. Right now, Ye Linyuan has broken through to the Golden Core realm, and the gains brought about are extremely astonishing.
First of all, the thickness of his magic power increased several times, and he cultivated twenty-four magic powers in one breath.
One line of magic power is composed of 365 lines of true essence. Ye Linyuan's 24 lines of magic power are almost equivalent to the combination of 24 people who have reached the great perfection of foundation building, which is more than four times higher than before the breakthrough.
The basic mana of an ordinary golden elixir in its early stage of perfection is only thirty-six. Except for the water method which is famous for its strong mana, the other methods can only increase it by one or two times at most.
The gold and fire method does not pursue the thickness of magic power, and the added magic power may even be only 30% to 40%.
In this case, Ye Linyuan's twenty-four magic powers are already considered strong among the early stage of Jindan.
In addition to the increase in the thickness of his mana, the quality of his mana has also doubled, and his control over his mana has also greatly improved.
With the enhanced magic power and the blessing of the Nine-Patterned Golden Elixir, the power of Ye Linyuan's various pseudo-magical powers has undergone a qualitative change, and the power of almost each one is not weaker than that of the early stage of the golden elixir.
The four exclusive magical powers, namely, the bright moon in the sky, the long autumn sky, the divided brilliance of the pure moon and the shared shadow of the bright river, were integrated into the only innate magical power, 'the bright moon rising from the sea'.
This magical power has transformed into a Mahayana magical power, and at the same time possesses the characteristics of the four pseudo-magical powers, and to some extent it is even better than the previous ones, becoming a top-level magical power comparable to the Wanhua Sword Art.
With this as a foundation, coupled with powerful mana and the Xuanyuan Zhenhai Flag, Ye Linyuan's overall combat power directly stepped into the middle stage of the Golden Core.
Moreover, Ye Linyuan estimated that his combat power should not be weak among those in the middle stage of the Golden Core. Even if he was not as good as that of the Canghai Sect Master, he should be no less powerful than the Tengshe who had just broken through sixty years ago.
"Now, even if I confront the Canghai Sect Master head-on, I should be able to protect myself."
“But this person has been in the Dao for many years, and his accumulation is probably quite profound. I am afraid that I can only fight against him but cannot defeat him, let alone kill him completely.”
“There will be a big battle later, and we need to act according to the circumstances as to how to deal with the enemy.” Ye Linyuan pondered, then stepped out of the cave spirit eye and faced the calamity cloud that covered the sky.
At the same time, Shui Hanqing and others saw this scene and immediately showed ecstasy, but also felt a little worried.
Facing everyone's concerns, Ye Linyuan just nodded slightly, and then said: "Don't worry, just follow the plan."
After saying this, he lowered his eyes and waited, quietly waiting for the arrival of the thunder tribulation.
Perhaps it was because Ye Linyuan had cultivated the Nine-Pattern Golden Elixir, this thunder tribulation was unexpectedly powerful, and calamity clouds slowly gathered from the sky.
Although the heavenly calamity has not yet erupted, but judging from the scale of the calamity cloud, it is probably more than one level stronger than when he cultivated the Black Turtle War Body.
"It really is a superior golden elixir."
At the same time, Li Xuangeng in the sky was first surprised, and then showed a look of surprise.
As the direct descendant of a major Nascent Soul sect, he had naturally seen true geniuses transcend tribulations, and he also understood what Ye Linyuan's vast tribulation cloud represented.
"Such a huge calamity cloud is much bigger than the one I broke through back then."
"This must be a superior golden elixir, and it is very likely a superior golden elixir with more than eight lines."
Li Xuangeng was extremely excited. If Ye Linyuan was an eight-patterned golden elixir, then after he devoured Ye Linyuan's foundation, it would be almost certain that he would absorb the essence of the Tao and cultivate to the eight-pattern.
When the time comes to open the sect's treasury, the possibility of him cultivating the Nine-Lined Golden Elixir is likely to be great. Even if he cannot cultivate the Nine-Lined Golden Elixir, he will have a good chance of breaking through the False Infant realm with the sect's special inheritance.
Whether it is the Nine-Patterned Golden Pill or the ancestor in the False Infant Realm, they are the realms he has always dreamed of.
The former can give him a glimpse of the potential of a Yuanying Zhenjun, and although the latter cannot improve his cultivation, he can still enjoy more than two thousand years in the mortal world, which is a hundred times better than wasting time in the Jindan realm.
Of course, Li Xuangeng did not doubt that Ye Linyuan had cultivated the Nine-Lined Golden Elixir. After all, the Nine-Lined Golden Elixir was too rare.
In order to cultivate the Nine-Patterned Golden Elixir, one needs to cultivate the four core spells of the Cang Hai Ming Yue Gong to the level of pseudo-supernatural powers, and whether one can succeed in the end depends on the right time, place and people, as well as one's understanding of the Great Dao.
Even in most Nascent Soul sects, a genius who can cultivate a Nine-Patterned Golden Elixir is only seen once in ten thousand years.
Among the demon race, only the young spirits of heaven and earth like the Teng Snake can cultivate the Nine-Patterned Golden Elixir.
Although Li Xuangeng believed that Ye Linyuan was a genius, he did not think that Ye Linyuan could compare with the true spirits of heaven and earth like the Teng Snake.
"good very good!"
After confirming that Ye Linyuan had cultivated the superior golden elixir, Li Xuangeng could not help but admire him repeatedly.
But he was seen clasping his hands together and smiling, then he waved his sleeves and raised seven formation flags, which were actually seven formation flags entwined with the power of the six stars of the Southern Dipper.
"Tianfu, Tianliang, Tianji, Tiantong, Tianxiang, Qisha, and a hidden star..."
The moment he saw the formation flag, Fu Shan Ao in the dark couldn't help but said with a slightly changed expression: "These seven formation flags are the flags of the Southern Dipper Formation, which complement and counteract the Northern Dipper Star Formation."
"These seven formation flags are all magic weapons. You must be careful and be prepared for the formation to be broken."
As Fushan'ao finished speaking, Cangyuebei, who was in charge of the formation, immediately exerted the power of the formation to its extreme.
In an instant, the Big Dipper and the Southern Dipper constellations collided with each other, causing an extremely violent collision.
Logically speaking, the Big Dipper Star Formation has the advantage of geographical location, and has the support of nine spirit veins and nine star towers. The Big Dipper Star Formation can slightly suppress the Southern Dipper Star Formation, so it should have an absolute upper hand.
But Li Xuangeng is by no means an ordinary person. His powerful magic power is equivalent to twenty times the basic magic power of the same level. The Nan Dou Formation Flag is a set of third-level lower-grade magic weapons, which is slightly more powerful than the Star Tower.
Such powerful magic power combined with an even stronger complex formation immediately allowed the Southern Dipper Formation to take the initiative and was able to restrain the Northern Dipper Formation, even causing the entire Northern Dipper Formation to begin to tremble violently.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shui Hanqing's heart sank slightly, and then he looked at Fushan Ao and other Jindan masters and said: "Thank you all, be prepared for a fight at any time."
"We will understand."
Fushan Ao spoke up, his eyes solemn as he said, "No matter what, we have to delay until Fellow Daoist Ye survives the thunder tribulation."
"boom--"
At the same time, Ye Linyuan used his physical strength to block the third thunder tribulation, and continued to use the power of this thunder tribulation to temper his body.
When Li Xuangeng saw this scene, his brows slightly frowned and a solemn look appeared on his face.
"He is using the thunder tribulation to refine his body. Could it be that he has cultivated a third-level combat body?"
As his mind flashed, Li Xuangeng suddenly felt a little worried, and immediately said coldly: "Young man, your Star Tower is indeed not weak, but in the eyes of the real strong, it is still not up to par."
"Today, I will let you see how I break the formation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xuangeng violently waved his long sleeves, and in an instant the seven formation flags were pushed to the extreme, and under his powerful magic power, they exerted a power beyond the limit.
In an instant, the power of the Southern Dipper Star Array surged, causing the entire star array to tremble violently. Finally, it was broken in a very short time under the restraint of the formation.
However, after the formation was broken, the seven magic weapon flags of the Southern Dipper Formation also dimmed, and it seemed that their power had been reduced by more than several times.
Those who were familiar with the formations present understood at a glance that Li Xuangeng had poured several times more mana into the Southern Dipper Formation in order to increase its power, thereby unleashing a power beyond its original power.
This method of activating the formation is called "breaking the limit" by people, which means breaking the limit of the formation's power.
If described according to what Ye Linyuan said in his first life, this means overclocking the formation with several times the energy, exerting 120% or even 150% of its power.
As a price, after these seven formation flags break their limits, their spirituality will be greatly damaged, and it will take a long time to recover, which may even affect the service life of the magic weapon.
Generally speaking, ordinary cultivators have limited magic power and can only break the limits of magic weapons. Only cultivators who practice water magic can break the limits of formations.
"good."
Back to the topic, seeing that the formation was broken, Li Xuangeng suddenly felt relieved.
He casually put away the seven formation flags and prepared to charge into Yejia Island, but he saw another dazzling formation flag across the sky, covering the entire Star Lake Seven Islands again. It turned out to be a third-level five-element formation.
