Chapter 266, lost one after another
Taking advantage of the fact that the skeleton on the opposite side was forced to retreat, the six Transformation Stage cultivators, including Shadow Moon, shot at the same time, and the six entity auras were injected into the six special symbols that controlled the formation at Wujizi's feet. After absorbing these six energies, countless dense lines started from the control formation, and in just the blink of an eye, they spread across the entire mountain gate of the Taiji Gate. These intricate lines were all drawn in advance, only to be activated now.
These complex lines formed a huge formation, and the moment this formation was activated, a transparent pillar of light encompassed the entire mountain gate of Taiji Gate. At the same time, a powerful spatial fluctuation appeared in this transparent pillar of light.
Seeing this situation, the skull didn't say a word, and collided directly with the pillar of light, wanting to break the pillar of light and interrupt the formation.
Faced with the huge skull coming from the pavement, everyone on the Taiji Gate, except for the monks of the Fifth Realm, all launched an attack one after another, wanting to stop it. And those Fifth Realm monks just looked at it like this, and had no intention of making a move. It's just that without the intervention of the Fifth Realm monks, those Fourth Realm and Third Realm monks alone would not be able to stop this huge skull at all. Their attacks collided like moths to a flame, and they were instantly devoured by skeletons.
By the time they wanted to strike again, it was too late. The skull slammed into the pillar of light, and a strong spatial ripple quickly spread outward from the impact point, and where it passed, the space collapsed in a large area like smashed glass.
The pillar of light was hit by the skull like this, and it only trembled slightly before returning to normal. On the contrary, after this impact, the entire face of the skull collapsed, and even began to leak demonic energy. It can be seen that the skull has used all its strength to hit this time, but it is still unable to help this transparent pillar of light.
Seeing this, everyone in the pillar of light showed surprised expressions. On the contrary, Shadow Moon and the others looked calm, as if they had known that this would be the result. At this time, the spatial fluctuations within the pillar of light became more and more intense, and soon reached an astonishing intensity.
Seeing that in the end, he still couldn't interrupt the formation, and the skull actually dispersed directly, and even the black clouds of demonic energy in the sky began to slowly dissipate. Seeing this situation, Shadow Moon and the others frowned, and there was a trace of worry in their hearts. But by this time they could no longer do anything. When the spatial fluctuations reach their maximum, the inner beam of light suddenly becomes distorted. After about a breath, everything was calm again. At this time, the pillar of light that enveloped the entire Taiji Gate had disappeared, along with all the Alliance monks in the Taiji Gate. And not long after they disappeared, the demon clouds in the sky also dissipated, and even the god-worshipping monks and demon generals inside disappeared. Everything was calm again, leaving only the ruins of the Taiji Gate station, proving that the previous battle was not illusory.
When the Alliance monks in the Taiji Gate reappeared, they were already outside the second line of defense. The formation that was activated just now was the one-time directional teleportation array jointly arranged by those master array mages. It was only after that that a few of them were able to arrange such a wide one-time directional teleportation array, which was also the backhand they arranged for the retreat.
As soon as Shadow Moon and the other Fifth Realm monks appeared, they immediately went straight to the teleportation array outside the second line of defense, and at the same time ordered those Alliance monks who had just teleported over to quickly enter the second line of defense and prepare to deal with it.
When the monks on the side of the Taiji Gate successfully escaped, the monks in the Seven Swords Gate ushered in the same fate as the Taiji Gate, and after the original Seven Swords True Person took over the control of the Seven Swords Gate Protector Array, he found that the strength of the other party was also weakened a lot. The two sides are about the same in terms of numbers and strength, but the Seven Swords Gate occupies a favorable position.
Relying on the strength and weirdness of the Seven Star Sword Formation, the Seven Swords True Man constantly suppressed the opponent's Demon Cloud, and even controlled the Seven Spirit Swords to rush into the opponent's Demon Cloud many times to rush back and forth. In just one stick of incense, the area of the Demon Cloud has shrunk by more than half. Only a range of less than 3,000 zhang remains. However, just as the Seven Swords True Man broke the opponent's counterattack again, and let the Seven Spirit Swords rush into the demon cloud again to launch various attacks, he finally encountered a setback.
In the originally churning demon clouds, a burst of spatial ripples suddenly appeared, and soon this ripple enveloped most of the demon clouds. The seven spirit swords that were flashing like stars in the demon clouds immediately rushed into this spatial ripple. In this area, the seven spirit swords immediately lost their ability to travel through space. Sensing this change, white light immediately emitted from the seven spirit swords. However, the white light, which had been invincible before, did not have the expected effect this time, and the space around the seven spirit swords was still unstable.
The Seven Swords True Man chuckled in his heart, and said secretly: "Oh no!" Without thinking about it, he withdrew the seven spirit swords. At the same time, he moved closer to the middle, wanting to use the skill of the Seven Swords in One that the Seven Swords Venerable had used. However, although he reacted quickly, he was still slow. Countless black chains appeared in the demon cloud, quickly tying all seven spirit swords into zongzi. No matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't break free.
The heart of the Seven Swords True Man instantly sank to the bottom, and he knew that the other party's fifth-realm monks and demon generals had returned. However, after all, he is the head of a faction, and he has experienced a lot of winds and waves, and he regained his composure in just an instant. Since the other party's Fifth Realm cultivator has returned, then his master and others should also come back soon, as long as he can insist that the Great Sect Protector Array is not broken before they come back, then his side will not be considered a loser. Although he knew it would be hard to do.
At this time, he immediately gave up the control of the seven spirit swords, controlled the formation and used all the energy on defense, and at the same time frantically extracted the spiritual energy in the spiritual vein below the gate station to strengthen the defense.
When he had just started to act, a huge black dragon with a thickness of ten zhang instantly rushed out of the demon cloud, turned into a meteor and collided with the protective shield outside the Seven Swords Gate. The speed of the demon dragon was extremely fast, and it only took a breath to rush to the protective shield. It was greeted by a vertical ripple of space, and a large one-handed hammer phantom.
In the face of the two oncoming attacks, the black dragon did not make any stops, and directly collided with it, the two attacks collided on the black dragon one after another, and the first vertical spatial ripple only slowed down the black dragon's speed, and at the same time dispersed part of the demonic energy around him. And the second sledgehammer phantom smashed on the head of the black dragon, and the black dragon immediately stopped, but only paused for less than a breath before continuing to sprint. On the contrary, the Giant Hammer Phantom itself exploded directly in the impact.
Seven Swords True Man didn't expect the opponent's strength to be so strong, and these two attacks were actually broken by the other party so easily. What he didn't know was that at this time, he was facing not only those monks and demon generals who originally attacked the Seven Swords Gate, but also the monks who attacked the Taiji Gate, and their number and strength had already exceeded twice as many as them, so naturally it was not something they could resist so easily.
Seeing that the black dragon was about to collide with the protective shield, at this moment, the long-awaited light of the teleportation array finally lit up, and at the same time, dozens of energy were instantly injected into the formation. With the addition of these energies, the entire protective shield has obviously become a little thicker, and even the Taiji diagram that has been continuously selected above has become a little clearer.
As soon as these dozens of energies were injected into the formation, the black dragon crashed into the protective shield. An earth-shattering explosion rang out, and the entire shield shook violently, and the outermost shield was covered with cracks like spider webs. These cracks connect the surrounding spatial cracks and the deep ravines on the ground to form a three-dimensional spider web, which is quite spectacular.
Seeing that this inevitable blow was actually blocked at the last moment, the black dragon roared unwillingly, and the double horns on his head lit up with a burst of black light, and then he slammed into it again.
The last moment finally arrived, and the Seven Swords Venerable and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. But the crisis is not over. Seeing that the other party continued to collide, the Seven Swords Venerable immediately rushed towards the control formation, while the other Fifth Realm cultivators continued to output a stable protective shield with all their might.
It's just that although he now has the support of a group of Fifth Realm cultivators, he still can't go back to his decline. The opposing side was much stronger than them, and had already taken the lead, and even if they tried to resist, the cracks in the shield continued to grow. After the time of the straight incense stick, the first layer of protective shield finally failed to hold on, and exploded into pieces in the sky with a huge explosion. The second shield didn't last long, and eventually it still shattered.
Seeing this situation, Shadow Moon and the others also knew that the general trend was gone, and while the third layer of protective shield could hold on for a while longer, they decisively chose to open the one-time teleportation array in the Seven Swords Gate. In a burst of unwilling sighs and aggrieved anger, everyone in the Seven Swords Gate disappeared into the Seven Swords Gate station one after another with the activation of the formation. At the same time as they teleported away, the demon cloud outside the Seven Swords Gate gradually dissipated, until it finally disappeared completely. Leaving behind the third layer of protective shield covered with cracks outside the Seven Swords Gate and the empty Seven Swords Gate.
Before all the monks in the Seven Swords Gate teleported away, some of the Fifth Realm monks left the Seven Swords Gate through the teleportation array in advance. They went to the remaining three sects. Since two sects have already lost, the other three sects are also destined to be unable to hold on. In this case, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the opponent's men and horses are all outside the Seven Swords Gate, let the remaining Fifth Realm monks rush to other sect stations, and assist the monks there to try to kill some of the opponent's manpower before the second line of defense fights. After all, even if a god-worshipping monk outside the Seven Swords Gate opened the portal, he could only teleport to one place at a time. As long as that mountain gate garrison lasts longer, the greater the results of the other two places.
