My Master Knows It All

Capítulo 1987: Chapter 431

In that brief moment, countless images flashed through Ling Xi’s mind. The first time she obtained the Supreme Unparalleled Formation Plate, to the time she gathered the Heaven and Earth Bagua Talismans, the first time she used the Heaven and Earth Bagua Talismans to activate the plate, her repeated battles using the Unparalleled Formation Diagram, her myriad nights spent comprehending the formation diagram, and even her breakthrough into the Immortal Path Domain were all about understanding the formation diagram, not just the talismans.

Many people believed she was strong because her master had crafted the Unparalleled Formation Diagram for her, that it matched her extraordinarily well.

But if she hadn’t sought to understand the formation diagram, how could she possibly fully unleash its power?

After all these years, her understanding of the Supreme Unparalleled Formation Plate was no less than her understanding of the Heaven and Earth Bagua Talismans.

Given this, why did she always need to connect the Supreme Unparalleled Formation Diagram through the Heaven and Earth Array Plate?

After all, the Unparalleled Formation Diagram and the Heaven and Earth Bagua Talismans were merely compatible, not identical, and mere compatibility couldn’t unleash such powerful energy.

More importantly, it was the Unparalleled Formation Diagram’s approval of her!

At this moment, she realized many things. Suddenly, numerous talismans flew out from around her, and she attempted to become a part of the formation diagram herself.

Streams of light surged from within her, falling around the formation diagram.

Instantly, the entire formation diagram began to tremble madly. Radiant beams burst from every corner of the diagram, falling upon her.

In that instant, Ling Xi even developed an illusion that her formation diagram was alive and had completely accepted her!

Even her Immortal Mountain rapidly soared, instantly rising five more zhang, reaching a height of four hundred and ninety zhang.

In that brief moment, she achieved profound clarity on many things.

In the Earth Immortal Realm, reaching her height, elevating the Immortal Mountain by even a single zhang was as difficult as ascending to heaven, let alone a five-zhang increase at once.

Within the formation diagram, Chess Formation couldn’t understand; although the formation diagram before him seemed unchanged, it felt as if it had been sublimated.

Not good!

He suddenly widened his eyes—in that moment, the formation diagram and Ling Xi had melded into one. His formation was no longer targeting just Ling Xi but both the formation diagram and Ling Xi.

The targeted power increased abruptly, causing the great formation he set up below to tremble wildly, and even the surrounding ground shook violently.

Suddenly, the next moment, the entire great formation exploded violently, and the stones and Immortal Crystals set in the formation shot outwards under the impact of the horrifying force. Below, the earth ruptured as endless dust soared into the sky from the explosion’s impact.

In that instant, Chess Formation felt the energy within him churning violently. The Human Array left by Zong Zhen on his body exploded simultaneously with the great formation below.

As part of the great formation, when it exploded, so did he. His flesh burst outward in all directions, and in an instant, he was left at death’s door.

“Not good!”

Immortal Lord Wu Zhen saw Chess Formation suddenly severely injured, his face changed drastically, and with a flash, he had already flown down, catching Chess Formation, with boundless yet incomparably gentle immortal qi flowing from her into him, calming the backlash force of the explosive formation and rapidly mending Chess Formation’s damaged body.

Meanwhile, the disciples of the Extreme Formation Sect just stared blankly ahead, as if a spell had been cast to freeze them.

Just now, Chess Formation had the upper hand, so how could his formation explode in just a moment?

Could there have been a problem with Chess Formation’s formation?

But Chess Formation’s expertise in formation within the Extreme Formation Sect could easily rank in the top ten. How could there be an issue with the formation he set up?

Even if there was a problem, it would result in the grand formation exploding, but how could Chess Formation suffer such severe backlash?

Everyone was utterly bewildered.

In the void, many showed faces of despair, some even closing their eyes in pain and nearly toppling from the void.

Chess Formation lost, and he was the last person from their Extreme Formation Sect. This meant they lost.

Before, they had bet on their sect winning, many betting quite a lot, some even staking everything they had, and now, it was all gone. Without these resources, how would they cultivate in the future?

Among the crowd, there were even two from the Immortality Regainment Realm, feeling their blood rushing to their brains. Those were people who lost bets, but the two of them were different—they had opened gambling houses where those from the Hundred Peaks Sect placed their bets. Now that the other side won, they would have to pay.

If everything had been Spirit Stones and Immortal Stones, it would have been manageable, but many bet resources like Immortal Herbs and Immortal Mines, and others demanded equal-value resources. Where would they find so many resources for compensation?

How did Chess Formation lose?

Chess Formation clearly had the upper hand just now.

But no matter what, Chess Formation lost. They would have to compensate; not compensating would lead the high-ups from the Hundred Peaks Sect directly to their Sect Hierarch, bringing unimaginable shame.
