Divine Brilliance - Chapter 1133

Chapter 1133: Initial Idea For Soldier Formation

“Daoxuan Demon Lord? Why has this person come? Is Wushang Yuan Demon crazy enough to release him?”

Zhongxuan was stunned. Thinking about it for a moment, his eyes were filled with shock.

“Daoxuan Demon Lord? That person who cultivated the Daoxuan God Stealing Ability?”

Right away, his face turned ashen white. “When I started cultivating this person was already sealed by Wushang Yuan Demon and World Stepping Heaven Lord, however, I heard about the Daoxuan Calamity. Although this person came from the Demon Path, the Demon Path lost more than the people from the proper path such that the sects locked themselves and defended for a few thousand years, but the cultivation world recovered 2,000 years ago.”

In simple words, this was a lunatic who was really strong and loved to kill.

Wushang Yuan Demon Li Biexue and Xingya worked together to seal him. They were playing it safe to prevent him from killing all the juniors of the Demon Path. The other reason was because the two of them couldn’t stand him either.

“That Wushang Yuan Demon definitely has his reasons!”

Zhongxuan frowned. He was also really curious about what Li Biexue was planning. However, no matter what, it wasn’t as important as Xufu removing the restrictions.

“Daoxuan has always had a crazy personality and done whatever he wanted. He never cared about the consequences of Qin Emperor reviving! If we are not careful this will be a huge problem…”

Daoxuan God Stealing Technique was one of the strongest secret techniques in the world.

It was tough to cultivate but once one succeeded, then even Hanqing’s Against the Heaven Demon Technique might not have been able to block it.

It was a cultivation method which was close to Grade Thirteen but as it didn’t touch the foundations of Heaven and Earth, the chances of reaching the End Realm with it were really small.

Within Xianyang, apart from Xufu, no one was his opponent.

Although Mingri Xuan and Li Xuanxuan were strong, they might not have been on his level!

“He should have come for Zong Shou! Not long ago this Gantian Ruler fought with Chi Hongyi and killed several Saint Realm experts…”

Xufu stood up and looked towards the altar deep in thought.

He had predicted everything. However, the moment this Daoxuan Demon Lord appeared, everything he planned had changed.

Zong Shou’s life and death had nothing to do with him and he would be glad if he died. However, for the altar to last until the Qin Emperor revived, did he have to help him?

Similarly within Xianyang City, on a roof in the west. A red-robed, middle-aged man was looking at the constellation tray in front of him.

“Xuan Increasing Law Containing Item? As expected, the moment he obtained it, it allowed him to turn into a dragon and rule the clouds. However, now is not the time…”

The stargazing tray had numerous shining stars that correlated with those in the sky. Apart from that, there was a thin light that showed the various star trajectories in the past.

There was a really thin one which was intersecting.

Only a skilled divinator could see the secrets within and divine fate.

The middle-aged cultivator looked towards the sky altar deep in thought.

“Speaking of which, there is still a chance to take the item? Xuan Increasing Law Containing, what is it?”

He shook the tray and not long after he shook his head.

“Forget it! Although it is tempting, a strong enemy is eyeing it and is dangerous. It is dangerous and not a blessing for me. I have a good relationship with him and there is no need to do that!”

That person had the Common People’s Path, Dragon Shadow, and five End Realm experts behind him. He was also the top heir of the Lu Family. There would obviously be many who were greedy and then they would be met with calamity.

In the next moment, his heart jumped as he looked toward the east. Shock appeared in his eyes.

Is that person Daoxuan Demon Lord?

※※※※

Zong Shou continued to sit on the altar. Although his face was calm, for some reason, he felt terrified like a bad thing was about to occur.

“Kong Rui said that a tribulation would befall me in the tomb. Jingyin also prophesied that something 10 times worse was about to happen. Was he referring to this place?”

He felt a bit uneasy but he still suppressed it. He couldn’t be distracted now.

Below him those 190 dragon tooth swords were spread out over 10 miles, slashing out many threads of sword energy. It seemed like the sky was covered in sword energy but they were being compressed step by step.

Lin Xuanxuan’s flag formation was tattered and broken. The golden flames which burned were showing signs of extinguishing under wave after wave of corpse energy.

At this moment, they relied solely on Zong Shou’s Unlimited Beginning and End ability to block the corpse army outside.

The six of them slowly went all out. Even Chuxue stood 3,000 feet in the air.

Five-element God Beasts were around her and when she waved her hand a strong spell was cast. It was either a flame meteor, a sharp earth spike, or some kind of ice ring.

She had the Combat Martial Body and when she used spells, it looked pointless but it often struck the crucial area. She would often forcefully break the tempo of the corpse army.

Out of the six of them, only Lin Xuanxuan stopped doing anything after throwing out the flag formation.

However, Yuan Wushang and the others didn’t feel unhappy at all.

On one side they had gotten many benefits and they also knew that if anything occured now only she would be able to handle it.

This was their last trump card.

Those 200 arrow puppets went all out. The red arrows exploded one to ten miles out, the explosion power could be compared to a full strike from a Celestial Realm cultivator.

Unfortunately, there were too few of them and they were unable to block the Big Dipper Crossbow Soldiers.

Little Gold and Hanxi continued to fly about in the enemy formation. They flew swiftly, their blade lights flashing as they slashed down the solo corpses.

However, their individual strengths were limited. No matter how strong they were, they were still helpless.

Before, when the flag formation was complete, they were strong enough. However, when the flag formation was broken, they found it that it had become tougher and tougher.

Those Saint Fire Silver Ants were the worst. If Zong Shou hadn’t paid attention and teleported them away when they were in danger, many of them would have fallen.

However, the Saint Fire around them could also counter corpse energy. One Saint Fire Silver Ant could often handle seven to eight Celestial Realm level vengeful corpses. They didn’t know what exhaustion was and they didn’t fear death.

This was why these 72 Saint Fire Silver Ants slowly became the main force to counter the corpse army.

Lin Xuanxuan looked at them all and sighed, “Zong’er, your pets are not bad. The Saint Fire can counter the vengeful corpses. Although they are natural variants, they are really beautiful. Unfortunately, they were too weak. Looking at how you control them like they are part of their arms, they are more like Dao Soldiers than Dao Soldiers. If they cultivate a special formation, they will definitely be strong. It is much better than now when they are fighting alone without any order or techniques.”

Zong Shou burst out laughing. Who knew that Lin Xuanxuan was actually feeling the same way too? He had such thoughts half a year ago.

To design a Dao Soldier formation for the Saint Fire Silver Ants, a Dao Soldier technique suitable for them. That would mean that the Silver Ants would have a Heaven Grade Dao Soldier Formation with them at any moment.

How would that be simple? To utilize their movement speed and also be suitable for their cultivation, that formation had to be strong. Otherwise, if it was just average, then what was the need for it?

All sorts of difficulties had to be solved. Although the Saint Fire Silver Ants were like humans, after all, they weren’t humans.

During the half a year, he didn’t have any thoughts at all.

“It isn’t that I didn’t want to but that I couldn’t.”

Zong Shou shook his head and said, “I used the Imperial Demon Slaying Formation as well as the dozens of Common People’s Path Dao Soldiers techniques as foundations to develop several cultivation methods. However, without confidence, I wouldn’t dare to try.”

With Dao Soldier cultivation methods above Earth Grade, the moment they reached a certain level, it would be tough to switch. Even if the method was changed, the effects would be greatly reduced.

Like in the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty battle, those Dao Soldiers who were captured, most of them could only be used as normal cultivators.

The body structure of the Saint Fire Silver Ants was much simpler than humans but it also meant that once the cultivation method rotation was completed, it would be tough to reverse.

There were just a few silver ants, their minds were connected to one another and once a mistake occurred, all of them would become useless.

This was why Zong Shou was really careful about this.

“Your Majesty has designed many techniques? You are afraid you miscalculated and they will fail in the future, right?”

Shen Yuexuan suddenly opened his mouth, “If you are worried about this matter, there is a solution! Just design a set of artifacts for it. Based on what I know, there are many outer region cultivators who will place the slave cultivators they captured into artifacts and use them as Dao Soldiers.”

Zong Shou was stunned and instantly thought back to before when he faced the assassination at Tianfang World.

There was a cultivator who used a ball-shaped treasure. Inside were numerous low-grade cultivators helping. It was similar to a Dao Soldier formation.

However, those people weren’t slave cultivators but the descendants of that person’s juniors.

Could that method work?

There was no point thinking about all this, without actually seeing it, he wouldn’t know whether or not there was anything wrong about the formation that he designed.

“If Your Majesty has detailed diagrams of the formation and cultivation method, you can pass it to me and I am confident I will be able to help you.”

Zong Shou was slightly distracted. It was simply too difficult to design a formation alone and he didn’t have that much time.

He said that he had designed a few types of formations and cultivation methods but it was actually just a rough structure.

Even if he used the Book of Eon, he didn’t have much time to perfect it.

However, it could indeed be used. From the foundations, adding to it bit by bit to finally complete it…

Oh? Something wasn’t right…
