One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

You turned to look at Long Yang and the others.

”Didn’t I say I was handling important matters and wouldn’t be coming back?”

Long Yang felt the anger in your voice and knew he had messed up. He sheepishly shrank his head back.

”Well... it’s been a few years. We thought you were done with your business...”

You asked again.

”You’re all the great achievers of your respective inheritances and the leaders of various allied armies. Both in ability and strategy, you’re far from ordinary! Didn’t anyone notice something was wrong?”

Wu Yue let out a sigh.

”Actually, there was one person who firmly suspected your orders and stopped us from launching an attack.”

”Who?”

”The Sword Lord.””Where is he now?”

Long Yang and the others exchanged uneasy glances.

”You locked him up?”

They were too embarrassed to answer.

Your blood pressure shot through the roof.

The Three Grand Venerables had deliberately shown weakness for years, using a few small defeats to breed arrogance and impatience within the Human World Allied Army.

When the allied army’s clamor for battle became impossible to suppress, they impersonated you and directly issued the order to attack.

At that moment, most people wouldn’t bother to think about the reasonableness of the order. They would only think: ”Finally, this day has come!”

Now, the Heaven Venerables’ goal was achieved.

They had successfully tricked nearly the entire Human World Allied Army right next to the Formless!

”Master... delicious... humans... delicious!”

The Formless’s spine-chilling voice emerged behind you.

You turned to look. The creature, with its Dragon-Man appearance and body covered in slime, had already flown out from the underground cave!

After eating Zuo Zuo Lu, it had also gained the Martial King Realm ability to fly through the air!

”What is that?”

”Tch, how disgusting!”

”I can’t sense any cultivation from it, so how can it fly?”

Some soldiers of the Human World Allied Army also saw the Formless, and everyone started murmuring in discussion.

You had no time now to blame Long Yang and the others for falling for the trap. You could only let out a loud roar.

”All forces, retreat! Don’t ask why! Obey the order!!”

The leaders of various factions, knowing they had caused trouble, hurriedly passed down the order, not daring to show the slightest delay.

”Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation!”

However, this was precisely the Dragon-Man army’s trap to lure the enemy in. Of course, they had come prepared.

The eight Earth Venerables, who had seemed to be fighting amongst themselves every day, now stood in eight directions, joining forces to form the formation.

A pitch-black light screen rose from eight directions, converging high in the sky like a giant black cauldron, sealing the entire Dragon-Man stronghold within.

Aside from the scattered troops who had chased after the Dragon-Men, the majority of the Human World Allied Army was trapped inside this formation.

The Three Grand Venerables stood in the sky outside the Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation, watching the trapped allied army with amused expressions.

”Chen Yi! The war is over, and we’ve won! The ultimate victor is still our Sixth Expeditionary Army!!”

Outside the Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation, the fleeing Dragon-Men began to counterattack.

Demon artifacts appeared in their hands. Combined with the Dragon-Men’s natural advantage of flight, the pursuing forces received no support and were soon caught in a bloody battle. Wave after wave fell, blood flowing so profusely it floated shields.

Inside the Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation, watching their comrades in distress from afar, the trapped Human World Allied Army could not leave this ”black cauldron.”

And right beside them, a massive danger was closing in.

The Formless!

”Don’t get close to it! Stay away from it! Don’t touch it!”

Even though you screamed until your throat went hoarse, with millions of humans and Demon Tribe members present, it was nearly impossible to enforce such discipline.

The key issue was that many people still didn’t understand the situation.

When the Formless began to treat everyone as food, and the first person fought back, the Formless’s path of evolution began!

Attacked with a fist technique, it learned the fist technique, sprouting ten hands to punch simultaneously.

Attacked with a sword technique, it conjured evil swords behind its head, its dark sword energy sweeping all before it.

Attacked by a beast tamer, it learned the art of beast taming, turning the opponent’s own Exotic Beast against its master.

”What the hell is this? Is this also a Dragon-Man tribe?!”

”Why can’t it be killed?!”

”Damn it, what the hell! Why does it know my family’s hereditary martial art?! And it hits harder than me!”

The entire army was trapped in the Dragon-Man stronghold with no way to escape.

The Formless grew stronger with every attack, its size increasing, its appearance becoming bizarre and mysterious.

It had no complex thoughts; it only knew how to hunt.

”Humans... delicious...”

Its mouth could only utter these monotonous syllables.

You desperately tried to stop the Human World Allied Army from continuing their attacks while simultaneously studying this formation, attempting to break it, your mind racing frantically.

Unfortunately, the Dragon-Men’s methods and the Human World’s were similar in appearance but completely different in essence, not following the same path at all.

You could only try to break the formation with a formation of your own.

When the eight Earth Venerables saw signs of you breaking the formation, they immediately used the Super Soul Combat Art to enter the Dragon God realm, forcibly suppressing your formation-breaking efforts with their higher cultivation.

The Formless had already evolved to the point where it could threaten most people’s lives.

Once entangled by it, not fighting back was also a death sentence. Human instinct drove them to retaliate.

Thus, a vicious cycle was formed.

By now, no one needed your warning to know that this thing couldn’t be fought; the more you fought it, the stronger it got.

They could only dodge, but they were trapped under the massive formation with no way out.

A deadly situation!

Outside the Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation, the Three Grand Venerables and eight Earth Venerables watched you all with smug smiles.

The Cunning Heaven Venerable raised his hand, his face brimming with triumphant satisfaction.

”Alright, the game can end now. All Earth Venerables! Contract the formation!”

The eight Earth Venerables, still quite obedient before the Heaven Venerable, replied in unison.

”Yes!!”

The range of the Eight Directions Immortal Imprisonment Formation began to shrink.

The space for everyone present to dodge the Formless was being compressed.

Seeing that at this rate, the entire elite force of the Human World Army was about to be soloed by the Formless, you decided to call the Great Demon to attack from the outside, hoping to break the situation.

Shen Qingshan was in the Starry Domains; there was no time.

Five years had passed, and Li Wentian could act again, but it was the same problem; there was no time.

The Dragon and Phoenix Corpses were not in this area either.

Only the Great Demon was the closest!

But doing this meant that one of the Martial Gods needed for the Seven Luminaries Immortal Array would be lost.

Just as you were about to make up your mind, someone arrived.

”Brothers, do not panic. Allow me to shatter this formation with my sword and help you all escape!”

The Sword Lord stood in mid-air, the Immortal Sword in his hand gleaming with a cold light, his sword pointed at the grand formation jointly cast by the eight Earth Venerables.

”Sword Lord!”

In the past, whenever you saw the Sword Lord, you always felt at ease.

Could it be the same this time?

The Sword Lord now stood alone outside the formation.

You were all trapped inside the formation and couldn’t help him at all.

This meant he had to fight alone!

His opponents were hundreds of thousands of elite Dragon-Men, eight Earth Venerables, and three Grand Venerables!

And he only had himself and his sword!
