Chapter 154
The Jiuzhou General Formation standing above the mountain protection formation was like the scorching sun descending to the earth. Under the control of the black-clothed lord, it attacked everything indiscriminately.
Su Jinzhou, who was standing in front of the mountain protection formation, became its first target of attack.
Su Jinzhou had used the sect's forbidden techniques several times before. While he was fighting with the black-clothed lord, he also had to protect Su Xuanzong.
Forbidden techniques have a backlash effect on the caster, and the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the backlash. Su Jinzhou was so powerful that the backlash wouldn't kill him, but after performing it several times in a row, he began to feel the strain.
The lord in black knew where his weakness was, and as the saying goes, "strike while he's weak." After he succeeded, he played with Su Jinzhou like a cat playing with a mouse, and the way he looked at him was no different from the way he looked at an ant.
He toyed with him in the palm of his hand with each increasingly severe attack.
Su Jinzhou's soul was damaged, and he was attacked by the Lord in Black in a targeted manner. As the fight with the Lord in Black lasted longer, he became more and more passive.
At this time, the Jiuzhou General Formation emitted a dazzling light, which was even brighter than the sun in the sky!
But the light is not as harmless as the sun. Everything that is illuminated by the light will be reduced to dust in an instant.
Su Jinzhou analyzed the current situation and quickly came to a conclusion.
Unable to break the formation under the attack of the black-clothed lord, he decisively used the Qiankun Yuwan Jue - this is the top defensive technique passed down by the Suxuan Sect, which can withstand the power of the Jiuzhou General Formation.
Su Jinzhou made a hand gesture and cast a spell, and a silver-blue Qiankun Spirit Shield with extremely rich spiritual power appeared in front of him. It quickly expanded in the blink of an eye, spreading in all directions like a stream of water, until it expanded to its maximum size, not only blocking Su Xuanzong behind it, but also encompassing the areas farther away.
The silver-blue light gave Su Jinzhou an imposing cold glow. His long hair flew wildly in the powerful energy collision, and his black clothes rustled.
His figure hanging in the air was unusually tall and straight. He neither retreated nor avoided in the terrifying light. He maintained a hand gesture with both hands and controlled the spell to block all the light outside the spiritual shield.
At this moment, countless people looked up at the silver-blue sky above their heads.
The figure of the Immortal Venerable stood like a pillar of support in everyone's heart. They could not help but pray, hoping that this sky curtain could withstand the devastating light.
This is their last hope. If the Immortal Lord is unable to fight against the Lord in Black, then they will only end up with their souls destroyed.
The black-robed lord looked indifferently at the people below. Those terrified, panicked, and desperate faces were all what he had expected, but what was more was a firm and fearless determination.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Jinzhou's face.
Su Jinzhou's face faded visibly, becoming as pale as paper.
The black lord whispered, "It's time to end."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Jiuzhou General Formation standing in the sky began to move. Its huge body moved and was slowly pressing down.
When it moved, this area of space could not withstand its majestic momentum, the space was distorted, and the air flow was vibrating!
The ancient roar echoed in the sky again, and the terrifying energy pressed on everyone's heart.
Looking at the tilted and downward-pressing formation, they all felt a sense of insignificance and powerlessness as if they were standing at the foot of a giant mountain - they could only watch the mountain collapse and wait for death to come, with no other options.
Their hearts were about to explode from the overwhelming energy of the main formation. In front of the main formation, they were all like gnats trying to shake a tree, their bodies unable to react except for trembling instinctively.
In the face of absolute power, they couldn't even think of escaping.
It's so terrifying and disheartening.
Those with higher cultivation levels among them were still able to retain consciousness and stagger to stand; those with lower cultivation levels had already bled from all seven orifices and were unconscious.
Even so, they still have the Immortal Venerable's Qiankun Yuwan Jue to provide them with a protective umbrella in front. If the Immortal Venerable had not taken action, their bodies would have dissipated and their souls would have perished long ago.
Su Jinzhou swayed slightly under the overwhelming pressure and vomited blood.
Two people came from behind him, supporting him on the left and right.
Su Jinzhou glanced sideways.
"Master, Gu Yan."
Behind the two of them, the elders led a group of inner disciples and flew out of the mountain protection formation, forming an encirclement formation and surrounding Su Jinzhou in the middle.
Liu Wushu clearly understood that even Su Jinzhou would find it difficult to cope with the current battle, let alone them?
But just because it's difficult to deal with doesn't mean they have to hide in the mountain protection formation and let Su Jinzhou handle it all alone.
There are no cowards among the disciples of Suxuan Sect. They will defend the sect to the death!
Seeing their fearless attitude towards death, the black-robed lord sneered, "You are willing to live and die with the sect!"
He raised his arm, paused for a moment, and then suddenly swung it down!
The roar resounded throughout the heaven and earth. At this moment, the Jiuzhou General Formation suddenly smashed down, forcing the silver-blue spiritual shield held up by Su Jinzhou to retreat!
Su Jinzhou spat out another mouthful of blood. He bent his back slightly under the powerful pressure, and the spiritual power that maintained the Qiankun Yuwan Jue also decreased a lot at this moment.
The silver-blue spiritual shield was eroded by the light of the Jiuzhou General Formation. As time went on, the spiritual shield would eventually melt away.
At Liu Wushu's command, everyone transferred their spiritual power to Su Jinzhou.
Su Jinzhou's eyes dimmed slightly. These spiritual powers were just a drop in the bucket for him.
His spirit was incomplete and his spiritual power was dissipated, making it difficult for him to compete with the Lord in Black as he did in his prime.
It will take some time...
Su Jinzhou's eyes were fierce and the hand gestures of his hands changed again.
Liu Wushu quickly realized that this was another attack method inherited from the sect - the Art of Retracing Back to the End.
This spell can rewind the Black Lord's attacks by a certain amount of time, the length of which depends on the caster's cultivation ability. In other words, it can push the Nine Provinces' main formation's attacks back a certain amount of time.
Of course, casting this spell requires a lot of spiritual power, which means directly burning soul pills to provide core energy for the spell.
Liu Wushu was in a heavy mood.
Su Jinzhou's spiritual power was already consumed when he performed the forbidden technique, and he also had to continuously maintain the Qiankun Yuwan Jue. Now he had to burn the soul pill. The loss to him was immeasurable, and the consequences were unimaginable.
Among the sect, only Liu Wushu could see that Su Jinzhou's soul was damaged.
He looked for an opportunity to ask Su Jinzhou, only to learn that his soul had been separated from his body and that he had been severely attacked by the black-clothed lord, so his situation was not optimistic.
In a flash, Liu Wushu thought of several ways to deal with the situation and finally chose one.
Liu Wushu made up his mind and said, "All disciples, listen up! Build the Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation!"
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"
Su Jinzhou's pupils suddenly shrank and he looked at Liu Wushu fiercely.
Liu Wushu smiled at him reassuringly and shook his head, "It's okay."
Liu Wushu turned to Gu Yan and said, "Take good care of your brother!"
Gu Yan's eyes were already bloodshot, as if they had been soaked in blood. He replied gravely, then gritted his teeth, keeping silent, trying not to let the sobs escape.
Liu Wushu flew forward and stood at the front of the team.
He took the lead and following his movements, the elders and many disciples also had serious expressions. They bit their fingers one after another, and at the moment the blood flowed out, they drew different runes in the air, and then began to make hand gestures in unison.
Each of them is an important part of the Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation.
The black-robed lord stared and observed for a moment, then discovered that these people were using their own essence and blood to activate some kind of magic circle.
The red blood line connected everyone together, and different positions of the blood line were expanding and contracting, just like the blood vessels in the human body, connecting them into one.
Judging from the power emanating from their formation, this formation should be an extreme method that consumes life to form a highly powerful attack technique.
The black-robed lord had to shift his focus to them, and the pressure from the Jiuzhou formation gradually slowed down.
Su Jinzhou finally had time to catch his breath, but he didn't dare to delay and went straight forward, but was stopped by Gu Yan.
Gu Yan said sadly: "Brother, Master has already made the decision. You don't need to go anymore."
Su Jinzhou's tone was suppressed and urgent, "It's still not too late to stop it now!"
Gu Yan's eyes were moist, as if they would shed tears of blood at any moment, "What happens after we stop it? The Jiuzhou General Formation will still annihilate our sect and make all things perish..."
"Master!" Gu Yan grabbed Su Jinzhou's arm and said with all his might, "Master and the others are fighting for our survival!"
Su Jinzhou shook off Gu Yan's hand, "I'm still okay!"
"But, Senior Brother, you've already..." Gu Yan squeezed his eyes shut, then looked at him deeply. "Master chose this step to protect you and more people! With you here, more people have a chance to survive! If you die here, how can I explain this to Master?"
Gu Yan felt extremely anxious at this moment, as if he was in dire straits.
He understood his master's concerns and his senior brother's stubbornness.
He stood between the two of them. On both sides were his closest and most respected people. They were all fighting for the sect and for the world of cultivation. If either of them was injured or killed, he would be heartbroken and feel extremely embarrassed.
Gu Yan gritted his teeth, his mind already made up. The sadness in his eyes was quickly covered by a cold, unyielding determination, "Brother, I won't let you go!"
After staying on the boat all night, my heart was burning with anxiety.
Once the Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation is completed, Master and all the elders and disciples who formed this formation will die here!
The Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation is a death formation with extremely harsh conditions for casting among the forbidden techniques of the Suxuan Sect. It not only has a large number of requirements for the number of people who make up the formation, but also absorbs the vitality of all those who cast the formation!
This death formation has the terrifying effect of sucking life and shattering souls. It was created by the first generation leader and several elders who established the sect.
At that time, the Zhenhuan Sect, which was on par with the Suxuan Sect, was ambitious and wanted to annex Suxuan to become the overlord. The first generation of the sect leader and several elders used the death formation with many disciples to compete with it.
The leader of the Zhenhuan Sect had his soul shattered when the death formation was just taking shape. The first leader also discovered in actual combat that the formation was too ferocious, and forcibly stopped it, thus saving his own life, the lives of several elders and many disciples, but he also paid a huge price for it.
The cultivation of the first generation sect leader always stopped at the late stage of Mahayana. He was only one step away from the tribulation period, but he could never reach a higher threshold. He gradually aged for more than ten years and passed away twenty years later.
The other elders and disciples also suffered injuries to varying degrees, and no one could survive the backlash of the death formation for long.
The Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation has just been formed, it can still be stopped!
Su Jinzhou pushed Gu Yan away. As the two of them pushed each other, his body shook violently. Then he covered his dantian and suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.
Gu Yan's expression changed drastically: "Senior Brother!"
Not far away, more and more rays of light invaded the silver-blue spiritual shield. They were like hungry beasts, madly devouring the spiritual power in the spiritual shield.
Here, Su Jinzhou needs to use more spiritual power to maintain the Qiankun Yuwan Jue. The soul pill has been running to its limit after a long time.
The primordial spirit and the soul pill could have complemented each other, but the black-robed lord tore his primordial spirit apart, causing his primordial spirit to weaken and become unable to respond to the soul pill.
Su Jinzhou's consciousness was confused for a moment, and in a trance, he seemed to smell a very faint fragrance.
The next second, someone gently hugged him around the waist, and his falling momentum suddenly stopped.
"Senior Brother!" An anxious voice echoed in my ears, one hard and one soft.
Consciousness returns.
“…Jitang.”
He hugged them back, knowing that it was Gu Yan and Ji Tang calling him.
Ji Tang responded and immediately helped Su Jinzhou up, and Gu Yan also quickly came to their side.
Gu Yan excitedly called her, "Senior Sister!"
Ji Tang nodded, stuffed the nightmare card into Su Jinzhou's hand, and then said: "Yan Yan, you and your senior brother go together to stop Master and the others!"
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "But..."
Jitang didn't hear what he said next, and he had already flown towards the lord in black.
The Blood Soul Burning Ruins Formation was blocked, so the Lord in Black naturally didn't have to spend too much time dealing with it. He turned to look at the person he expected.
Unlike Su Jinzhou, whose soul was damaged, Ji Tang is now at the peak of his strength, so he can't help but take him seriously.
