Chapter 180: Breaking the Formation (2)

It's been broken. A sweet, fishy taste welled up in her throat, and Yun Po realized it instantly. She channeled her spiritual energy, blocking half of her meridians to forcibly suppress the backlash from the formation. With a crisp, low shout, the brush in her hand swung slightly, and the soft thread quickly spread through Luo Xuanyi's hand, transforming into a cloud of mist that drifted between Luo Xuanyi's fingers before recondensing.

This pen was Yunpo's main banner, operating within it the laws of transformation between reality and illusion, unaffected by the effects of the formation. Of course, after transforming something into nothingness, its state was somewhere between existence and non-existence. Yunpo could not be attacked while in this state of nothingness, nor could it attack anyone.

Unfortunately, the formation failed. Yun Po's thoughts flashed through her mind, and she poured all the spiritual energy she could mobilize into the brush. With a flick of the brush, her figure immediately faded into nothingness, dispersing and vanishing.

He would not drag his feet, yet he would not leave completely. Yun Po remained calm and in absolute safety, still observing Luo Xuanyi, ready to strike her at any moment.

The next moment, a strong wind rushed out from the scroll and rolled straight into the sky along Luo Xuanyi's hand.

"boom!"

The sky covered with dark clouds was pierced by the strong wind, shattering the blue sky for thousands of miles and forty-eight dim fake stars.

Luo Xuanyi pressed the scroll with her hand, holding it up with all her strength, and slowly crawled out from the paper, just like crawling out of a swamp.

As ripples rippled across the scroll, Luo Xuanyi's jet-black hair emerged, and she reached out with her other hand. Pressing the scroll with both hands, she lifted herself upward, revealing half her body. Finally, a drop of ink, transformed from mist, fell from her toes. From kneeling on one knee, Luo Xuanyi finally stood atop the scroll, stretching seemingly defenselessly, without a single scratch on her body.

It was natural that she was unharmed. Luo Xuanyi did not suffer any harm at all. The so-called death energy and body that were taken away in the false scene were just a threatening scene.

All of Luo Xuanyi's feelings in the painting were simulated and added to Luo Xuanyi by Yun Po based on the reaction of the [spirit] under the laws of heaven.

What is a spirit? In Yunpo's Dao, she overbearingly categorizes everything under the control of Heaven as a spirit. It could be said that whether it's a human cultivator, a demon cultivator, a ghost cultivator, or simply a human, plants, animals, ghosts, or even the land itself, all are included in Yunpo's world of the painting array.

Such an overbearing classification, if it doesn't lead to enlightenment, is just an idea without any real possibility of realization. However, Yun Po was able to achieve enlightenment directly at the early stage of the Golden Core stage. This was partly due to her wisdom and partly due to the uniqueness of her formation skills.

Therefore, although Yun Po has just achieved the great perfection of the Golden Elixir, his understanding of the art of battle and the art of painting is no less than that of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

She already has the qualifications to forge a path of her own. As long as she reaches the Spirit Transformation Stage, from that moment on, she will be on par with the celestial beast Xiyan.

Unfortunately, Yun Po was completely absorbed in the study of the truth of Heaven's Dao, and like her master Fu Ya, she disdained to increase her cultivation and acquire external objects. Otherwise, according to her enlightenment, she should have at least reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void by now.

Precisely because of Yun Po's dedication to the Way of Heaven and the Dao, she clearly understood that the painting array, governed by both the Way of Heaven and the Dao, was by no means easily broken. So, the moment Yun Po discovered the array was broken, she decided to hide rather than attack Luo Xuanyi, who was slowly crawling out of the painting world.

No. She is not a spirit and does not belong to the spirit world.

Although Yun Po was unaware of the existence of the treacherous cultivator, she could sense that Luo Xuanyi was something beyond the laws of Heaven. This made Yun Po, who had already suffered the backlash of the broken formation, feel a surge of excitement. She almost forgot her injuries and stared at Luo Xuanyi in fascination.

What can transcend the Way of Heaven? Can this in turn prove the true truth of the Way of Heaven?

Yun Po forgot the six alliances' order to kill Luo Xuanyi. Of course, something this important had to be kept for research.

Bring it back to show Master, and study it! This is definitely the best way to reach the Heavenly Dao!

Luo Xuanyi was unaware of Yun Po's rapidly racing mind and fantasies, nor did she know that Yun Po had begun to sense her treacherous nature. Finding that she could no longer sense Yun Po's presence, and that Yun Po showed no signs of attacking, Luo Xuanyi regretfully dropped her pretense of relaxation.

Luo Xuanyi deliberately gathered the sharp death energy in her body and occupied the surrounding space in one breath. She also deliberately created an omnipresent perception curtain to avoid being attacked silently like this again.

This attack still left Luo Xuanyi with a lingering fear. She had never imagined at first that Yun Po's painting formation only merged the appearance of the formation and the painting, and did not merge the essence of the two at all. If one insisted on calling this a "fusion", it was actually more like a cover-up.

In fact, Luo Xuanyi had only found a trick to break the painting formation. She didn't understand what would happen after the painting formation was actually formed, but she knew it would be a lifeless killing move like the one used by Tan Tai Lian.

In the world within the painting, Luo Xuanyi's first feeling was that she couldn't come into contact with her false self. Her body and lifeless energy had been taken away by the "self" hanging upside down in the false Little Lotus City. The more she came into contact with other things, the more Luo Xuanyi's thoughts deepened.

That is, if I touch it, I will be replaced by a falsehood, my existence erased. Therefore, I must find a glimmer of hope without being released.

However, this was exactly what Yun Po was trying to trick Luo Xuanyi into thinking. In reality, Yun Po was exploiting people's conventional thinking. Since there were bound to be flaws, he simply placed them squarely before Luo Xuanyi's eyes.

The real exit to the world in the painting is the "self" that Luo Xuanyi initially avoided and was afraid of being touched and replaced.

Luo Xuanyi now thinks that when the forty-eight fake stars are arranged, if Luo Xuanyi touches "herself" again, what she will encounter is not an exit, but a real dead end.

Yun Po calculated people's thoughts precisely and boldly, making sure that people would not actively seek death, thus making the prey give up the chance to live.

Unfortunately, Luo Xuanyi will probably be classified as a lunatic by the world.

When Luo Xuanyi discovered that her body was strangely reacting like a human body, she realized that this painting formation might be incompatible with her in some way.

In that case, why not experiment on myself? Thinking this, Luo Xuanyi tore off her arm and threw it towards "herself" who was approaching from above.

Sure enough, the arm he had torn off had clearly been separated from his body, yet Luo Xuanyi was still able to manipulate it and move. "He" had clearly seized Luo Xuanyi's death energy and her body parts, but he hadn't taken the arm that Luo Xuanyi had torn off.

So Luo Xuanyi tried to stretch her fingers, grabbed something, and pulled it down. It was the tip of Yunpo's pen.

Second update~ Yunpo is the righteous side, he won't die in a short time
