Gonggong and Zhurong, seeing that the great formation was about to break, still held onto a glimmer of hope, waiting for reinforcements to arrive from the rear.
What he didn't know was that reinforcements had indeed been sent from the rear, but whether they would arrive in time was another matter entirely.
It turned out that just the day before yesterday, Hu Le suddenly summoned the boy in blue to the palace.
At this moment, a bronze cauldron stood in the center of the hall, with flames flowing over it and rosy clouds swirling around it.
Hu Le was standing in front of the bronze cauldron, constantly throwing in materials that emitted innate spiritual energy.
The boy in green immediately recognized that his master was refining a magical artifact.
Over the years, Hu Le's cultivation has improved, and he has mastered more and more of the Great Dao. His skills in refining spiritual treasures have also improved considerably.
In the past, even forging a single magical artifact for enlightenment had repeatedly failed, but now, such a thing will never happen again.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he rarely personally refines treasures.
After all, at his level of cultivation, he would no longer casually forge treasures. Each time he forged a treasure, he had to follow the natural changes of heaven and earth and the workings of destiny to complete it...
"Greetings, sir!"
The boy in blue entered the hall and immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Wait a moment," Hu Le said calmly as he manipulated the true fire within the cauldron.
"yes."
The boy in blue agreed, got up from the ground, and stood obediently to the side to wait.
After about an hour, Hu Le suddenly chuckled and said, "The time has come!"
The next instant, the true fire inside the cauldron went out, and the sound of a golden bell rang out from the sky. Immediately afterwards, the cauldron shone brightly, radiating thousands of rays of light, illuminating the entire Buyou Kongfang Mountain with a dazzling glow, like a fairyland.
Golden light swirled in the sky, purple mist drifted, and golden flowers were scattered everywhere. Auspicious clouds and clouds reflected each other, creating boundless wonders.
A moment later, several banners, each wrapped in a ball of light, flew out of the cauldron and landed in Hu Le's hands.
He reached out and ran his hand across the banner, and the radiance on the banner immediately subsided, along with the strange phenomena in the world.
"Congratulations on your success, sir!"
The boy in blue stepped forward to join in the fun, then glanced at the banners in Hu Le's hand, counted them, and found that there were nine banners in total, but he didn't know what was going on with them.
Hu Le reached out and summoned a beam of light from the back hall, which landed in his hand and transformed into an array diagram.
He wrapped the banner with the array diagram and handed it to the boy, then instructed him: "Today I will teach you the Innate Taiyi Nine Palaces Array. Later, go to a place and set up this array."
As he spoke, he gently touched the boy in blue with his left index finger, transmitting the operating method of the Innate Taiyi Nine Palaces Formation to the boy in blue.
This formation was developed by Hu Le after he comprehended the Innate Taiyi Nine Palaces Sword Formation, and the foundation of the formation is the diagram of that sword formation.
However, after he made adjustments, this formation reduced its killing power and enhanced its ability to trap and illusory people.
Compared to the original Innate Taiyi Nine Palaces Sword Formation, it is in no way inferior in terms of its profoundness.
Of course, in terms of killing power, it is somewhat inferior. After all, it should be known that the foundation of the Innate Taiyi Nine Palaces Sword Formation, besides the scroll of the Innate Formation Diagram, also consists of nine Innate Taiyi Divine Swords.
How could the banners Hu Le hastily crafted compare to this?
However, the appearance of the banner was also due to some divine intervention. Once the grand formation was truly set up, it could already surpass 99% of the formations in the primordial world...
Hu Le taught the boy in green how to set up the formation, and the boy in green mastered it instantly.
Then, Hu Le told the boy in blue where the formation was set up.
Finally, he shoved the purple bamboo staff into the hands of the boy in green, and gently pushed him on the back. In a flash, the boy in green found himself in front of a desolate mountain path.
The boy stretched his limbs, then found a smooth, flat bluestone by the roadside. He jumped onto the stone, sat cross-legged, placed his bamboo staff on his knees, and waited obediently.
The next day arrived in the blink of an eye.
Just as the eastern sky was beginning to brighten, the boy in green suddenly sensed something and looked up at the sky. He saw countless shadowy figures flying in from the southern horizon.
Some rode on clouds, some sat in flying boats, and some piloted flying magical artifacts, flying densely from the horizon, like a thick, colorful cloud moving swiftly across the sky, heading towards him.
Remembering Hu Le's instructions before he left, the boy thought to himself: That thing is coming...
He hurriedly stood up from the rock, and seeing that they had already flown above his head, he quickly shook his bamboo staff.
A beam of innate five-colored divine light rose up, instantly transforming into a pillar of light that pierced through the entire world, blocking the group's path through the clouds.
These people were the reinforcements sent by the Goddess Houtu to Jietian City, and the army was led by Ru Shou and Xi Zi.
The two were rushing towards Jietian City when a five-colored pillar of light suddenly rose up in front of them, blocking their way. They were taken aback and quickly ordered their men to stop. Then they looked down at the scene below.
The two of them immediately recognized the boy in green robes on the ground who was holding a purple bamboo staff.
The boy in blue also recognized both of them.
The two saw that the five-colored pillar of light remained solid and did not dissipate, standing between heaven and earth and blocking their way.
They knew that the boy was there, so taking a detour would be useless.
After all, once the Five-Colored Divine Light of Primordial Origin is unleashed, even if they can escape, the human army behind them will not be able to escape.
The two exchanged a glance, then immediately dispelled the cloud light and landed not far from the boy in blue.
"You brat, why are you blocking our way?" Ru Shou shouted coldly.
The boy in green robes, holding a bamboo staff, bowed to the two men and said, "Great gods, please forgive me if I have offended you in any way."
“You little brat, there’s no need for such formalities. If you know what’s good for you, then quickly disperse your divine light and don’t delay our journey,” Xi Zi said, frowning.
The boy in blue shook his head. "Please forgive me, gentlemen. I am here on the orders of my master, and I cannot let you pass so easily."
"Oh? Just a mere child? Do you think you can withstand the thousands of troops behind me?" Ru Shou threatened.
The boy in green took out the Nine Palaces Formation Diagram and said with a smile, "If you two want to pass, it's very simple. I'll set up a formation here. If you can break it, you can pass. I will definitely not dare to stop you."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance and instantly reached a consensus.
“Alright! It’s a deal!” Ru Shou agreed.
“It’s a deal!” the boy replied with a smile.
"Hurry up and set up your formation, we'll break it soon," Xi Zi said anxiously.
They knew very well that if they couldn't deal with the boy today, things would likely get very difficult.
Moreover, they were also afraid that if they didn't accept the boy's challenge, the mystical figure would personally intervene...
