Black and White Elders stepped forward in unison, with surging power swirling around them, each delivering a palm strike towards the sky filled with incoming saber lights.
“Leave it to us, Li Cheng, you find an opportunity to break the formation!”
Li Cheng could casually set up an eighth-level Formation, and the Elders believed that he could definitely break through the grand Formation of the Artifact Sect.
However, Li Cheng shook his head slightly, “No need to go through all that trouble. Once we kill these Loose Immortals, there’ll be no one to govern the Formation.”
These Formations were intricate and complex, with over a hundred of them interlinked with each other, forming a chain-link grand Formation that would be taxing and thankless to break through.
Besides, even if they managed to break through, they would still have to face the siege of the Artifact Sect powerhouses—why bother with such redundancy?
“Huh? Without breaking the Formation, we can’t hit them!” Old Bai said.
Separated by hundreds of miles from the area where Zhuo Bu’er and the others were located, with at least a dozen Formations blocking the way, their attacks couldn’t penetrate these Formations without breaking them.
Li Cheng smiled without saying a word, looking towards the Astonished God Tripod, “Are you ready?”
“Wait a bit longer, refining Spiritual Fire takes time!” the Astonished God Tripod replied.
“Alright then, take your time,” Li Cheng said, and summoned the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
The next moment, Li Cheng enlarged the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod to a colossal kilometer size and wrapped a portion of the Space Law around it. With a single palm strike on the body of the Tripod, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod shot towards Zhuo Bu’er and the others like lightning.
Wherever the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod passed, the Formations were as if they didn’t exist, offering no resistance at all!
Seeing the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod approach with unstoppable momentum, the people of the Artifact Sect changed color!
These Formations, perfected by the ancestors from the Lower World, many of which used Immortal Artifacts as their base, were supposed to be unbreakable. Yet… why couldn’t they stop that Tripod?
“Hah? What kind of maneuver is this?” Old Bai exclaimed in astonishment.
Ignore the existence of Formations?
This technique was too bizarre!
While everyone was still in shock, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod had already covered hundreds of miles and burst into the group of Loose Immortals from the Artifact Sect.
The forty-plus Loose Immortals hastily scattered to flee, but the colossal Tripod, moving with exceptional speed, in the blink of an eye hit seven Loose Immortals. A mist of blood filled the air; none of the seven had the chance to escape with their Nascent Souls.
With a thought, Li Cheng continued to control the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod to chase after them, and in a moment, over ten more Loose Immortals were reduced to a blood mist.
“Dude, leave some for me, 1 haven’t vented my anger yet!”
The Astonished God Tripod cried out. The next moment, its Tripod mouth flipped upside down, and white fierce flames spewed out like a torrent!
“Immortal Fire! You have Immortal Fire, and you still collect Spiritual Fire?” Black Elder was left speechless.
It felt like Boss Ma picking up a dollar from the ground.
And it was the kind of dollar that was fought over with others.
“My Immortal Fire is not ranked very high. It can only grow stronger by devouring other flames, so how could I miss out?” The Astonished God Tripod spoke while the Immortal Fire had already burned across hundreds of miles along the ground. Many Formation bases were directly destroyed, and the Formations subsequently failed.
“Who believes that? You are the Artifact Tripod of Qi Jingshen, with the Immortal Fire of an Immortal Emperor ranked low?” Black Elder said.
“You don’t understand. At my master’s level, there’s no need for the fires of heaven and earth, but for the rules of the fire series. Anyway, stop asking and make a move, we are going to wipe out the Artifact Sect!”
In the distance, Zhuo Bu’er’s face was twisted with rage. He hurriedly took out a Jade Talisman from one of the grand Formations and crushed it, calling out anxiously, “I beseech the ancestor to make a move!”
As the Jade Talisman shattered, a phantom figure appeared!
The figure appeared to be only twenty years old, with indifferent eyes surveying the entire scene, exuding an air of contempt for all beneath heaven.
“Be careful, this is a mid-level True Immortal Talisman, containing the power of a True Immortal and a strand of Immortal Sense, which can last for a few breaths of time!” The Astonished God Tripod warned.
“If he controls the grand formation, we’ll have no choice but to momentarily avoid its edge!”
Such a jade talisman is equivalent to a temporary avatar, existing only for a short duration; yet even a mere breath’s time permits a True Immortal to unleash several formidable attacks until their strength is exhausted.
If it’s a low-grade True Immortal talisman, it only contains the power of a True Immortal without Immortal Sense, thus requiring the wielder to activate it.
Ling Cheng, who was in control of the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod chasing the Loose Immortal, remained calm, “Judging by the aura it emits, it doesn’t seem all that powerful. Let me deal with it!”
The Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod changed direction, flying toward the young phantom, while Li Cheng surrounded himself with the remaining laws of space and, in a flash, penetrated more than ten formations, arriving just a hundred meters from the phantom along with the tripod.
In the blink of an eye, the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod shrank to the size of a person; Li Cheng grabbed one of its legs and violently smashed it towards the young phantom.
By then, the young phantom had seen the situation clearly and spoke in an indifferent voice, “A glow-worm’s light daring to compete with the bright moon?”
The phantom slapped through the air, and an overwhelming wave of Immortal Yuan surged toward Li Cheng like a tsunami!
Li Cheng, who had burst forth, abruptly halted, his progress impeded under the massive oppression of the Immortal Yuan!
But protected by the Space Law around him, the airborne palm strike did not harm Li Cheng.
As the remnants of the force from the palm faded, Li Cheng surged forward, swinging down the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod once more!
The young phantom raised his hand again, and the still mighty Immortal Yuan roared towards the descending Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod. As its body collided with the phantom’s attack, ferocious shock waves emerged, spreading a dazzling light across the sky!
Where the waves passed, the nearest dozen or so formations were shattered instantly, while the formations further back contorted violently but finally managed to block the waves.
“That phantom possesses the strength of a mid-term True Immortal, and he actually withstood a direct confrontation without losing?” the Astonished God Tripod said in surprise.
Old Bai urged, “Hurry and break the formation so we can go up and help!”
Without Li Cheng’s Space Law, they could not directly pass through the formations before them; they had to rely on the Immortal Fire emanating from the Astonished God Tripod to destroy the formation’s foundation.
“Don’t rush me—it’s useless now. By the time I burn through the formation’s foundation, it’ll all be over!” the Astonished God Tripod said irritably.
It had already realized that once Li Cheng made a move, there was nothing left for the rest to do.
Now it was regretting; had it known, it wouldn’t have been so eager to collect the Three-color Forging Sky Fire. When Li Cheng had asked, it should have accompanied him in combat instead of letting him go off with the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
Sure enough, following the Astonished God Tripod’s remarks, the phantom was seen becoming even more ethereal from the impact, seemingly on the verge of dissipating at any time.
After Li Cheng smashed down two more times, the phantom completely vanished.
“A mid-grade True Immortal talisman, that’s it?” Black Elder exclaimed in astonishment.
The phantom had only managed to strike twice before being blocked by Li Cheng.
“It was already quite powerful, okay? It’s just that it couldn’t last long and happened to encounter a freak like Li Cheng,” the Astonished God Tripod said.
“Do you think the Artifact Sect has any more True Immortal talismans?” the Astonished God Tripod asked again.
Without a second thought, Old Bai responded, “Of course there are, not just True Immortal talismans—I’m afraid even Golden Immortal talismans exist!”
As one of the top ten sects, they had a relatively good understanding of each other, and the means of the major sects were not much different.
Old Bai was well aware if the Heavenly Mechanism Sect had certain means, how could the Artifact Sect not have them?
Therefore, he knew that the Artifact Sect must have more than one True Immortal talisman and even higher-level Golden Immortal talismans.
Upon hearing this, the Astonished God Tripod fell silent; if the Artifact Sect activated a Golden Immortal talisman, then it would be the end!
Black Elder chuckled, “Don’t worry. We’re inside the formation. If the Artifact Sect uses the Golden Immortal talisman against us, most of their own sect will be destroyed, which would be a loss not worth the gain for them.”
“Besides, look, does Li Cheng look like he’d give the Artifact Sect another
chance to use a talisman?”
