Chapter 1116: Chapter 899: The Formation of Light and Dark
Among Star Card Masters, strength is paramount, and this is even more so with Demon Beasts.
The golden-haired man looked at Su Yuan in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then introduced himself: "Beihuang Mountain, Ten Thousand Mountains, under the command of Peng Wang, Luo Jin."
The white-bearded old man behind also stroked his beard and smiled: "Flower God Ridge, under the command of Hundred Spirit King, a single name ’Sang’."
The black-faced man looked at Su Yuan, his expression changed for a moment, and then he said sullenly: "Kongtong Mountain, under the command of Horse King, Wang Hu!"
Su Yuan was quite surprised. He originally thought this big dark guy might get angry and make a move, but he didn’t expect the other side to admit defeat so straightforwardly, showing a sportsmanship in losing.
With a thought, the killing intent and Sword Intent dissipated from Su Yuan’s body. He raised his hand and cupped his fists towards the demons.
"I am Su Yuan, nice to meet everyone."
"Everyone in this way has become acquainted through a fight." Bai Ze stepped between the two sides at the right time, smiled, and said, "And as you all can see, Friend Su is undoubtedly worth my journey."
Bai Ze was greatly satisfied in his heart, firstly because his divination had been correct.
Previously, it was all hearsay. Now seeing with his own eyes, Su Yuan’s current strength is indeed extraordinary!
Secondly, as Su Yuan revealed his strength, not only did it quell the dissatisfaction of Luo Jin and others, but also he and Bi Fang, who were somewhat alone and weak, could rely on Su Yuan to have more initiative.
Luo Jin, Wang Hu, and others also said nothing upon seeing this.
The competition for the Dragon Vein is of great importance, if it were a useless person, they would certainly make him look bad.
But if it is a truly capable expert, it is undoubtedly a strong ally, highly desirable.
Wang Hu, though rash, is careful within his coarseness, and his previous move was to test Su Yuan’s reality for the other demons.
The demons now also acknowledged Su Yuan.
Later, with the introduction of Bai Ze and Bi Fang, Su Yuan roughly understood the identities of the demons.
Luo Jin’s true form turned out to be the Legendary Dragon Clan, Kang Jin Dragon!
Wang Hu’s true form is the Holy Beast Xuanming Demon Tiger;
While Sang’s true form is the rare Plant Star Beast—Bathing Fire Fuso.
The three Great Demons come from three different places, with the remaining Burning Sun Demon Beasts each led by these three Great Demons.
Among them, deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains where Kang Jin Dragon resides is where the Demon Emperor is located, with its formidable strength, the demons subtly take it as their leader.
Wang Hu said gruffly: "Friend Su, I am not convinced about this match, after this we should have another bout!"
Su Yuan chuckled lightly: "Alright, I am all for it anytime."
In a few words, Su Yuan now also sees that although Wang Hu is boorish and fierce, he is a demon with character.
Compared to those who stab you in the back, this type is easier to deal with... just fight him until he’s convinced.
Having just made a breakthrough, and not wanting to go too hard on Mu Kexian earlier, he indeed needed a sparring partner!
Bai Ze looked at Elder Sang: "Elder Sang, how has the situation at Great Wilderness Ridge been recently?"
Elder Sang stroked his white beard and said: "So far, besides ordinary sects and factions, experts from the Beast Taming Heavenly Sect and True Yang Sect have appeared one after another, along with some Loose Cultivator experts...
Moreover, though not yet seen, it’s said that ’Earth Evil’ Pang Ming of the Six Demonic Heroes has recently appeared nearby as well."
"Earth Evil Pang Ming..."
Hearing this, Bai Ze and Bi Fang immediately frowned.
The Six Demonic Heroes are dubbed ’Demon Evil’ precisely because there are Evil Cultivators among them.
The Ghost, Earth, and Buddhist Evils rose rapidly in the Earth Tribulation, taking the lives of both righteous sect disciples and Demon Sect disciples alike.
Earth Evil Pang Ming was originally an expert from the overseas islands.
Years ago, Pang Ming slaughtered half of the cultivators on the island, and finally escaped heavily injured from a King Level expert back to the mainland of the Southern Continent.
However, within just a year, Pang Ming had fully recovered from his injuries.
Ghost Evil, the leader of the "Ink River Five Ghosts," Yu Xiu, ruthlessly absorbed the cultivation of the other four ghosts who were like family, rising rapidly.
Yu Xiu killed a large number of cultivators and once fought with Hua Tiandu of the Ten Heroes, with the outcome unknown.
Buddhist Evil, from the Rashamon Sea on the western coast of the Southern Continent, mastered some Buddhist Divine Powers.
Though not as infamous as the other two, their actions are bizarre and mysterious, often leaving advanced cultivators who cross their path deranged, committing large-scale slaughter, or even suicide, creating shocking incidents.
The Evil Cultivators have no one backing them, and besides their strength, the three evils act cautiously, each having their own means of preserving their lives, making them extremely troublesome!
After hearing Elder Sang’s recount of the current situation at Great Wilderness Ridge, Su Yuan asked, "Bai Ze, besides that, what about your array..."
Bai Ze nodded, turning his hand to take out a pitch-black array plate.
"I’ll first expand this array to its minimum limit."
Bai Ze raised his hand to form a seal, the array plate gleamed as it transformed into a splash of water, spreading in all directions.
Afterwards, Bai Ze took out the Water Sky Ruyi, which flashed with a blue glow and disappeared into the array.
Instantly, Heavenly Water overturned, billowing waves, and everywhere the array reached turned into a layer of azure water surface!
Then, Bai Ze handed a few talismans to Su Yuan and the others.
"This array, called the Yin Yang Heavenly Water Array, allows one inside to harness the Heavenly Pond Water.
This water possesses immense power and countless uses, not only can it directly bombard opponents, but also form the Heavenly Pond Battle Armor.
The Heavenly Pond Battle Armor can restore Star Power, heal injuries, defend against damage, and enhance attacks...
Moreover, when severely injured, the Heavenly Pool Divine Armor will explode on its own to save the person inside by Water Escape!"
Holding the talisman given by Bai Ze, Su Yuan had a thought, and Heavenly Water descended to envelop his body, quickly forming a snug-fitting water-type battle armor.
Even now, it is comparable to a powerful Epic Star Artifact, and if fully deployed with Dragon Vein Star Power, it might reach the level of a Pseudo Saint Artifact!
Not only can it comprehensively enhance combat power, but it can also explode to rescue the gravely injured at the last moment, truly impressive.
Upon seeing this, Luo Jin and many other Demon Beasts each tried it, brightening their eyes at experiencing the power of the Heavenly Pond Battle Armor.
After a brief examination, Su Yuan asked: "I wonder, what constitutes Yin and Yang in terms of this array?"
Though this array can both attack and assist, having just witnessed the Seven-tier Eight Golden Lock Formation earlier, Su Yuan knew that a Seventh-level Array was never that simple.
Bai Ze also knew that Su Yuan was a Sixth-level Array Master, and he explained with a smile:
"This array has both Bright and Dark layers; if all the people in the Bright Formation have their battle armor shattered, they can be moved to the Dark Formation.
And it only takes the time of one incense stick for the Heavenly Pond Battle Armor of those in the Bright Formation to restore again!
Furthermore, all injuries and consumed Star Power within the array will regenerate at a speed dozens of times faster than before; as long as they are not dead, even severed limbs can regenerate!"
At that time, the Yin Yang will reverse again, and those within the Bright Formation can once more face the enemy in nearly full status."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up!
Even Su Yuan felt a slight stir in his heart, Seventh-level Array, undoubtedly strong!
This array, even if not as powerful as the Eight Golden Lock Formation, wouldn’t be too far off.
"Once this matter is finished, the proficiency in the Array Path must be improved quickly." Su Yuan had a thoughtful look in his eyes.
The experience required to advance to a Seventh-level Array Dao Master isn’t much, but a lot of knowledge needs to be accumulated.
However, combining it with Returning Ruins Divine Wind, it can quickest advance to Seventh-level Array Master.
Elder Sang turned to Bai Ze thoughtfully and said, "So now we need to consider the personnel allocation for the Bright and Dark arrays?"
The crowd came to their senses and looked at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze nodded and said, "That’s right, we need enough people in the Bright Formation to face the enemy, and enough in the Dark Formation to hold for long enough.
Though the time of one incense stick is not long, because the array’s power is used entirely to repair the Heavenly Pond Battle Armor of those in the Bright Formation, the personnel in the Dark Formation do not have the enhancement of the Heavenly Pond Battle Armor."
Luo Jin frowned and said, "This makes it even more demanding."
The Bright Formation fights, the Dark Formation defends.
Under the premise that the Dark Formation can be held, the more people in the Bright Formation, the better, to maximize the power of the array.
But ensuring "the Dark Formation can be held" is hard to say.
Luo Jin said, "I’ll lead with Wang Hu to guard the Bright Formation, Bi Fang and Elder Sang... and Friend Su, will guard the Dark Formation together. If Bai Ze is also involved, he can supplement the Bright Formation."
Hei Hu grinned and nodded, "Excellent, this array has a restoration effect; being able to fight to one’s heart’s content is my favorite!"
"This is a very prudent plan." Bi Fang also nodded and turned to Bai Ze, "Bai Ze, what do you think."
Bai Ze pondered for a moment, scanned the crowd, then turned his hand to take out the dark blue turtle shell.
"Everyone, don’t hurry; let me perform another divination."
Bai Ze released his hand, and the turtle shell flew automatically among the crowd.
Then Bai Ze closed his eyes tightly and raised his hand to cast numerous Seal Techniques.
Spirit Light flowed over the turtle shell, and it twirled around on the spot, emitting continuous "brub-brub" sounds.
Luo Jin was indifferent to Bai Ze’s divination; despite having a perfectly rational strategy, they still relied on such mystical divination.
Luo Jin was like that, and even Wang Hu, and many Demon Beasts in the rear were disdainful.
Among the demons present, apart from Bi Fang, only Elder Sang seriously regarded the rapidly spinning turtle shell.
"Celestial Laws evolve greatly, tribulation returns to unity; all elements in their place, fortune is pursued and misfortune avoided!"
Bai Ze rapidly formed seals with his hands, finally pointing a finger at his forehead, upon which a drop of Essence Blood flew out and merged into the turtle shell!
In an instant, Bai Ze’s complexion turned pale, and his aura dropped a few degrees.
Then, the rapidly rotating turtle shell suddenly plummeted to the ground and abruptly stopped!
"Open!"
Bai Ze opened his eyes, raised a finger, and with a flick of his hand, the cover on the turtle shell flew up.
Then, the Six Diagrams inside appeared before everyone.𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
"What!"
Upon seeing this divination, everyone, including Bai Ze, was stunned and collectively looked at the silver-haired youth at the side.
Inside the turtle shell, five diagrams were positive, and one was reversed.
The five positive directions pointed at Bai Ze, Bi Fang, Sang, Luo Jin, while one reverse indicated...
It was Su Yuan!
"I knew it, this kind of thing is useless." Wang Hu withdrew his gaze, sneering disdainfully.
Despite losing the spiritual clash to Su Yuan, Wang Hu did not believe Su Yuan would be much stronger in an actual fight!
Luo Jin shook his head, understanding that Su Yuan should be an expert, but guarding the Dark Formation alone is far-fetched.
Elder Sang frowned secretly, raising his head to Bai Ze; it seemed this Divination Technique was not all that brilliant...
Even Bi Fang, familiar with Bai Ze, was quite surprised and entertained some doubts.
There were Ten Great Sects, loose cultivators, even Evil Cultivators... Can one person hold?
At this moment, Su Yuan stepped forward, appearing suddenly before the turtle shell, bending down to pick up the overturned shell.
"Since I promised to assist fully, let me guard this Dark Formation."
Su Yuan rubbed the turtle shell, then raised his head and tossed it to Bai Ze, who was equally surprised.
Bai Ze caught the shell, waking up instantly.
Meeting Su Yuan’s calm gaze and recalling the twice-indicated divination...
In a flash of thought, Bai Ze seemed to have made a decision.
Gripping the overturned turtle shell, Bai Ze suddenly looked serious, formally bowing to Su Yuan:
"In that case, I’m counting on you!"
