Chapter 1878: Fierce Battle Outside the Tomb
Outside the Desolate Heaven Tomb, there are eighteen Shi clan guards, and no one can get close to this place within ten miles.
After entering the Desolate Heaven Coffin, Wu Yan didn't know that the stone platform was actually the formation hub of the Desolate Heaven Tomb and the Desolate Sky Coffin, as long as this stone platform was refined, the Desolate Heaven Tomb could be taken away.
Even if the forbidden Silent Sacred Pen in the Desolate Heaven Tomb has been changed by the time venom in the Desolate Sky Coffin, as long as it has not been taken away and refined, or has not been completely isolated, the remnant soul of the Silent Ancestor still has the possibility of resurrection.
And as long as Wu Yan refines the Desolate Heaven Tomb and takes it away, it is equivalent to cutting off the last hope of destroying the remnant soul of the ancestor. The Wasteland Tower will be able to take this opportunity to completely destroy it and complete its final mission.
This was also the real reason why as soon as they saw Wu Yan start refining the formation hub of the Desolate Heaven Tomb, the eighteen stone clans immediately became extremely happy.
At such an important moment, how could they allow others to disturb Wu Yan, so they naturally had to clear the scene.
Of course, the abnormal changes in the Desolate Heaven Tomb naturally attracted the attention of the four major teams.
Especially for the strong people who know these inside stories and are determined to seize the Desolate Heaven Tomb, the Book of Life and Death, and the God Destroying Pen, they will never allow others to get involved.
A few miles away, Gu Lao Zu, the Netherworld Clan, who had been paying attention to the Desolate Heaven Tomb, was one of them.
In fact, when he saw Wu Yan suddenly touch the prohibition of the Desolate Heaven Tomb and enter it smoothly, he felt that things were completely out of his imagination and control.
At that time, he had actually sent an urgent message to his master through the Netherworld's unique method of joint communication.
When he witnessed that after Wu Yan entered the Desolate Heaven Tomb, in less than half an hour, the Desolate Heaven Tomb began to shake violently, and then began to slowly shrink, he knew that things were already developing in the worst direction.
It's just that he can't figure out how a mere god machine clan can be recognized by the stone clan guarding the Desolate Heaven Tomb and successfully enter the Desolate Heaven Coffin.
"Senior brother, immediately gather all the manpower and storm the Desolate Heaven Tomb! No matter what, we must not let that holy relic in the Desolate Heaven Tomb fall into the hands of others today!"
Gu Lao Zu's expression was extremely solemn, and he ordered to the Youquan Saint Venerable on the side.
"Senior brother, what's wrong? Why can that Divine Machine Clan Gu Tian enter the Desolate Heaven Tomb?"
Youquan Saint Venerable was still confused and didn't understand what was going on.
After all, he didn't know as much information as Gu Lao Zu. There are some things that Netherworld Dao Venerable told the eldest disciple, but he didn't reveal it to others, even he, the second disciple, didn't even know.
It can be seen from this that the Netherworld Dao Venerable is actually secretive about some things.
The old man didn't know what was going on. However, the identity of this god machine clan is very suspicious. It was strange that he was able to gain the approval of the Stone Clan who guarded the Desolate Heaven Tomb. As far as the old man knows, in this world, only the identity of the heir of the Heaven can truly be recognized by the Shi Clan. Could it be that he still can't make up for the heavens? But how is this possible? Shizun once mentioned that there is an extremely special agreement between the Shenji clan and Panzu, and it is impossible for them to become the successors of the heavens! There must be some information in this that we have omitted or have not found out!"
Gu Lao Zu guessed with a puzzled expression.
"However, no matter what, we must not allow the Holy Relics of the Netherworld to fall into the hands of any other race! It is the key to Master's complete control of the Netherworld and the Hongmeng World, and no one can think of touching it!"
Youquan Saint Venerable heard Gu Lao Zu talk about this, and knew that this should be what the master said, and the whole person couldn't help but get excited. Shizun has such a grand goal, once he succeeds, he, as a disciple, will naturally be able to enjoy endless benefits.
At this time, he had already summoned all the more than 100 members of the Netherworld Clan, and everyone formed the Netherworld Battle Array, and under the effect of this battle array, they were all shrouded in a ghostly skull with a radius of thousands of feet.
On this skull, an extremely powerful and terrifying aura was exuded, and the coercion formed by this aura was even more powerful than that of the Extreme Great Heavenly Venerable!
In this way, even the four strongest of the eighteen Shi Clans were actually a little weaker than this skull in terms of aura.
Under the control of the members of the Netherworld, the skull quickly approached several stone clans blocking the Desolate Sky Tomb, trying to knock them all out of the way, and then rushed towards the Desolate Sky Tomb.
"Hmm, it's actually a Netherworld Dao Technique, these Netherworld Dao cultivators, it seems that they can't help it!"
After perceiving the powerful aura of the skull, Shi Chengxiang was startled, and a sneer appeared on his face.
"The Desolate Heaven Great Heavenly Venerable once said that the Book of Life and Death must not fall into the hands of Netherworld Dao cultivators, especially not in the hands of Netherworld Great Heavenly Venerable. Now that he has successfully advanced to Dao Venerable, this matter must be stopped. In ancient times, the Netherworld Great Venerable Yan Lichuan wanted to control the life and death of the creatures in the entire Hongmeng World through the Netherworld Heavenly Dao World. If it weren't for the fact that the Great Heavenly Venerable of the Desolate Heaven saw his ambition at that time and directly stripped the Netherworld Heavenly Dao World from his hands and took it away, I am afraid that the current Hongmeng World would already be under its control, right?"
In an instant, the four strongest stone clansmen, under the summons of Shi Chengxiang, gathered in the same direction, that is, the place where the Netherworld skeleton approached.
Subsequently, the four of them sacrificed their own stone axes, stone spears and other unique holy weapons of the Stone Clan at the same time, and launched an attack on the Nether Skeleton!
Shi Chengtian aimed the stone spear in his hand at the eye sockets of one of the Nether Skeletons, which was flickering with ghostly fire, and then threw it fiercely!
The stone spear turned into a bolt of lightning and pierced the void, piercing straight towards the skeletal eye socket.
The tearing aura brought on it actually ignited the void!
Looking at the momentum emitted by this spear, if you are stabbed by this spear, I am afraid that the eye sockets of the Netherworld Skeleton will definitely be directly pierced, and the momentum and breath of the Netherworld Skeleton will definitely fall down a lot!
And after throwing this stone spear, Shi Chengtian actually slapped it directly, and another identical stone spear appeared in his hand, he didn't look at it, and threw it in the same direction again.
In this way, in a few breaths, he actually ran out of eight stone spears one after another!
However, when these eight stone spears were thrown, the momentum and aura of his whole body also weakened a lot. It can be seen that the consumption of this stone spear on him should be very large.
Of course, the eight stone spears thrown by it, although they are aimed at the Nether Skeleton, but the power of its attack has a range attack, but whoever is swept by the range of the stone spear's power will have to withstand the strongest attack power of the stone spear!
The other three Stone Clan Great Heavenly Venerables also used their strongest methods, the goal was not only to prevent the Netherworld Skeleton from approaching, but also to destroy it.
"It's not good! These Shi Clan are crazy, they actually threw the Stone Clan's holy weapon directly to destroy the Netherworld Battle Array! Quickly retreat, avoid its edge first!"
Although in terms of strength, the Nether Skeletons condensed by the Netherworld Battle Array were stronger than any Stone Clan. However, the Shi Clan's attack methods are also extraordinary.
In particular, this method of throwing stone holy relics belongs to the ancient Hongmeng Immortal Realm era, and the unique killing holy technique of the stone clan, under the same realm, even if you have a top-level holy weapon, you will never dare to connect it hard.
Because, once hit by the stone artifact thrown by it, it is definitely dead or alive!
These stone artifacts themselves have extremely terrifying self-detonation abilities. Although under normal circumstances, the Shi Clan would not choose to self-detonate their own stone artifacts, after all, these stone artifacts are closely related to their own breath, and once they self-detonate, they will also hurt themselves.
But who is sure that the crazy stone clan will not blow up the stone artifacts thrown out?
Under the control of the Nether Clan, the Nether Skeleton dodged left and right with great agility, constantly dodging the attacks of the stone spear.
However, those stone spears were not ordinary treasures after all, they had their own spirituality, and after being thrown by their owners, they pursued them closely according to the will of their masters, chasing after the Nether Skeletons.
In an instant, the first stone spear successfully hit, piercing directly into the eye socket of the Nether Skeleton and reaching the handle.
Receiving this blow, the Netherworld Aura around the Netherworld Skull's eye socket directly collapsed partially, and the flickering Netherworld Ghost Fire was directly extinguished, and several screams came out of it at the same time, thinking that it should be a member of the Netherworld Clan, who had a slightly lower cultivation realm, suffered a heavy blow, and even died!
"These stone clans are really outrageously strong!
How could the Youquan Saint Venerable expect that he would suffer such a heavy blow when he first became a teacher! He found that his side seemed to underestimate the strength of these stone clans too much.
The screaming few people had already been torn apart and killed by the terrifying desolate power contained in the stone spear!
You must know that among them, the lowest cultivation is also the peak of the Great Immortal Venerable, and there are even the powerhouses of the early stage of the Tianzun, but even so, they were all killed by the desolate power that erupted from the stone spear without any suspense!
In an instant, the members of the Netherworld Clan withdrew thousands of feet away, avoiding the subsequent waves of flying spike stone spear attacks.
"Senior brother, with these stone clan guards, I'm afraid we won't be able to get close to the Desolate Heaven Tomb at all!"
After retreating far away, seeing that those stone clans did not chase and kill, but collected the stone artifacts thrown out one after another, the Youquan Saint Venerable breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Gu Lao Ancestor in a worried tone.
Gu Laozu was also taken aback and at a loss. The strength of these stone clans also exceeded his expectations.
You know, what they just performed was the Netherworld Clan's battle formation coordination technique.
This technique was passed down by the Netherworld Dao Venerable himself, and it is said that if he can fully exert the power of this battle array, even if it is the Extreme Great Heavenly Venerable, he may not be able to resist it.
This is a genuine Dao technique! It is also the Netherworld Dao technique that is most suitable for them.
But it's a pity that although they have obtained the inheritance of this Dao technique, they can only be stimulated with the help of battle arrays, and individual people cannot use it, so naturally their ability to act is greatly limited.
"The master has already replied, and in another day, his old man's deity will be able to arrive here. With Master coming forward, naturally there will be no other problems. However, before that, it was necessary to guard the Deserted Tomb so that its contents would not be taken away. Since the Divine Machine Clan of that evil sect was able to mobilize the prohibition in the Desolate Heaven Tomb, this in itself already showed its value. Perhaps, this person is likely to be the key to the master's collection of the Netherworld Holy Relic, and it is not known. Leave him alone yet. The old man thought that he wanted to refine this Desolate Heaven Tomb, and it would not be possible to complete it in one day. You must know that such a powerful forbidden formation-type holy weapon, the power of immortal consciousness required to completely refine it, even the Great Heavenly Venerable may not be able to withstand it!"
Gu Lao Zu seemed to know a lot about the origin of this Desolate Heaven Tomb and the Desolate Heaven Coffin inside, and when he saw this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile with confidence as he said to the Youquan Holy Venerable with a worried face.
"That's what the elder brother said. That Divine Machine Clan's junior Gu Tian was just a mid-stage Immortal Venerable, and if he wanted to completely refine the Desolate Heaven Tomb, he was afraid that it would take at least dozens of days or even longer. Since the Master Venerable will be able to arrive tomorrow, there is no need to worry about it at all! Let's watch him here!"
"You can't do nothing. No one can predict what will change in the next moment. For the sake of today's plan, we still need to constantly harass them, so that he can't refine the Desolate Heaven Tomb with peace of mind. In this way, there is no fear of any other surprises. Let's change our strategy, divide our troops into three ways, cooperate with other teams, and constantly harass them and make them tired of coping! Then find an opportunity to connect to the Desolate Heaven Tomb with Immortal Consciousness to see if we can destroy his sacrifice!"
I have to say that the ancestor of the Gu family really deserves to be a scheming person, and immediately formulated an extremely accurate and effective strategy.
And in order to achieve this goal, he began to spread the word, contacted the leaders of the other three super teams, and constantly encouraged them to cooperate and fight together.
The other three super clans, the situation they knew, was obviously no less than that of the Netherworld clan, and after listening to Gu Laozu's suggestion, considering their own interests, they naturally agreed to this strategy.
Subsequently, the four teams joined forces, and each super team split up into three to five squads.
Outside the Desolate Heaven Tomb, more than a dozen small clans appeared at once. In addition to them, there are some large teams that are slightly worse than them, and they also appeared nearby at this time.
These large warbands were originally coming for the treasures in the Desolate Sky Tomb, but when they saw that the four super warteams were about to attack the Desolate Sky Tomb, they also surrounded them.
And the four super warteams, in order to achieve the purpose of raiding, deliberately confuse the public and hype that the treasures in the Desolate Sky Tomb are about to appear, and whoever can break through the defenses of these stone clans on the periphery, attack under the Desolate Sky Tomb, enter the Desolate Sky Tomb, and the treasures they have snatched belong to whoever they have robbed.
In this way, although most of these large warbands mixed up were suspicious, they still joined the army attacking the Desolate Sky Tomb.
Soon, outside the Desolate Heaven Tomb, more than 30 teams, large and small, gathered.
The eighteen Shi Clan Heavenly Venerables were soon entangled by these large and small clans and could not get out, let alone organize an effective defensive strategy to join forces to defend against the enemy.
Even Shi Chengxiang and Shi Chengtian, the four strongest Shi Clan Great Heavenly Venerables, gradually fell into a situation where they were tired of coping. It didn't take long for several teams to break through the defensive circle and rush to the tomb gate of the Desolate Heaven Tomb.
