Chapter 1087: Chapter 872: Demon Sect Gathers

”It’s starting!” Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed.

Not only will the dispute before him begin, but today, the formation of Qixia Mountain’s Dragon Vein signals the entire Earth Tribulation stepping into the climax!

Jiang Lan stared from afar at Dongfang Yi and the Taishang Sect crowd within the Dragon Vein.

Su Yuan unfolded his All-Knowing Vision, probing all around.

The nearby experts had already started moving separately.

Su Yuan chuckled lightly, ”Such a grand assembly, it’s rare to be able to spectate properly.”

Jiang Lan nodded and said, ”Indeed, it’s a chance to observe the level of the Burning Sun experts from the Southern Continent.”

Previously, in whatever event Su Yuan participated, he had to exert effort himself.

Right now, regarding this Dragon Vein of Qixia Mountain, people like them weren’t qualified to compete, instead, they could watch casually~

As for taking advantage...

At least this particular Dragon Vein doesn’t give them the chance to benefit.

Recalling his earlier encounter with Fu Chaosheng, Su Yuan rubbed the space ring in his hand, his spiritual power settled on a golden token inside, and he began forming an idea.

At this moment, as the Eight Golden Lock Formation opened, Dongfang Yi had already entered the newborn Dragon Vein and started utilizing it to enhance his cultivation.

The people around were eager to move.

Soon, from a certain hill in the north, two powerful waves, one scorching and the other chilling, suddenly erupted, marking the first actions taken!

Like oceanic waves revealing skeletal Netherworld ghost fire and radiant cold ice, the forces shot from tens of miles away, impacting one of the Hundred Feet Golden Gates guarded by the Red Eyebrow Taoist.

Ghost fire filled the sky, cold ice like radiant clouds, that’s a colossal spectacle!

The people on Qixia Mountain were secretly amazed, immediately turning to look at the source of the attack.

They saw five figures with varying statures at a distance, and it was the white-faced scholar and a chubby middle-aged among them who were launching the attack.

”It’s the Dai Mountain Five Strange! They came from such a distance from Qixia Mountain?”

Someone immediately recognized them: the Dai Mountain Five Strange, five Sunburned Cultivators from the perilous Northern Land’s Dai Mountain.

All five were in the Three Suns Realm, seizing control of Dai Mountain and a high-level Secret Realm within it, with no nearby Major Sects wishing to provoke them.

”It’s going to collide!”

In a flash, the attacks of the white-faced scholar and the chubby middle-aged hit the Hundred Feet Golden Gate!

Yet, the ghost fire burst apart, the cloud-like ice shattered, their two attacks were blocked just like a hammer striking an egg.

Not only did they fail to leave any mark on the Golden Gate, but their attacks were dispersed upon impact!

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

However, the fact that the Dai Mountain Five Strange were the first to strike among many Sunburned experts on Qixia Mountain meant this attack was not simple.

The white-faced scholar and the chubby middle-aged simultaneously enacted their seal techniques.

The ghost fire exploded before the Golden Gate and the splattering cold ice not only did not dissipate, but rather combined; fire melted ice, instantly transforming into a dozen or so water-barrel-thick Drowning Snakes climbing the Golden Gate!

”Sizzling...”

Wherever the Drowning Snakes passed, a large amount of golden smoke rose, and the spirit light on the Golden Gate was slowly corroded to become a shade darker.

”Such a strong corrosive power!”

Everyone’s expressions showed slight astonishment; the Dai Mountain Five Strange were indeed not simple, could they truly break the Golden Gate like this?

”Petty tricks, and you think you can break the Eight Golden Lock Formation?”

Behind the Golden Gate, the Red Eyebrow Taoist sneered, raising a hand to pinch the array’s seal technique.

In an instant, the runes on the Golden Gate’s golden light suddenly shone, countless sharp golden beams instantly pierced through and severed all the Drowning Snakes!

”Ice and Fire Drowning Combination Skill, broken just like that!”

The chubby middle-aged exclaimed, while the white-faced scholar and the other three Strange also looked slightly startled.

They had shown some effects initially, but it was suddenly broken by the array!

”This Eight Gates Formation has such strong defense, just what kind of formation is this?”

”Don’t know, but it looks ancient...”

”None have seen Zhuge Xin arrange it before, perhaps it was specially prepared by Taishang Sect for this Dragon Vein!”

”...”

The many cultivators at Qixia Mountain were also quite surprised by this, speculating about the formation.

Inside, Red Eyebrow Taoist snorted coldly, ”Fool, such level of attack and you wish to break the array? The Eight Golden Lock Formation hasn’t even exhibited a third of its power yet!”

The array’s numerous Radiant Moon and Shining Star disciples saw the formation’s might and were greatly encouraged.

However, this was just the beginning.

With two of the Dai Mountain Five Strange initiating actions, experts from everywhere in the mountain started launching remote attacks.

”Stone Crushing Cannon!”

”Mount Tai Pressing!”

”Demon Rain Flood Sky!”

”...”

Giant stones, raging sand, tempest and lightning... all kinds of magical techniques bombarded the Eight Gates.

But the Taishang Sect disciples sat behind the Golden Gate, the eight towering Golden Gates seemed like impregnable walls, invulnerable to ten thousand techniques, standing immovably, continuously shooting golden light that shattered all attacks!

Seeing this scene, Su Yuan watching from afar shook his head slightly: ”Just like this, it can’t break the Seventh Level Eight Golden Lock Formation...”

Sixth-level arrays and Seventh-level arrays are both Grandmaster-level formations, and most Seventh-level formations are advanced versions of Sixth-level formations.

Through the enhancement of array materials and the expansion of array theory, the power of the Sixth-level array is greatly improved!

Su Yuan’s gaze fell on the center of the formation—on the Dragon and Tiger Golden Lock suspended before Ye Shuying.

If Su Yuan wasn’t mistaken, this Golden Lock used as the array eye should be a pseudo-sacred artifact!

With the strength of the Seventh Level Eight Golden Lock Formation, added with a pseudo-sacred artifact-level array eye, and the numerous elites from the sect sitting in defense...

Just relying on these scattered attacks, it’s utterly impossible to affect the Eight Golden Lock Formation in any way.

”There will definitely be experts breaking through the formation next, otherwise, just with this formation, the Taishang Sect could effortlessly secure this dragon vein. After all... this is merely the initial form of this array!”

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered, he too had occasionally seen some information about this formation when studying array path in Yan Court.

Based on his slender understanding of the Eight Golden Lock Formation, this passive defensive state is merely the basic form of the Sixth-level Eight Golden Lock Formation.

Seventh-level Eight Golden Lock Formation has much more variations!

Just as Su Yuan was pondering, northern skies darkened, a massive black cloud rolled in oppressively.

The black cloud seemed slow, but in reality extremely fast, in the blink of an eye, thousands of cultivators had already appeared before them.

The leading figure was a tall man with black hair, his expression rather wild and unruly.

Beside him, there were several Burning Sun Experts with unmeasurable aura.

The man with black hair laughed heartily: ”I heard Daoist Dongfang wishes to ascend to the throne here, I specifically brought disciples from Cangming Island to congratulate Brother Dongfang!”

”Demon Sky Palace’s Hong Zhong, the people from the Demon Sect have arrived!” Seeing this person, many cultivators in the mountains were slightly shocked.

Some spectators, Radiant Moon and Shining Star Level, also stepped back further, afraid of getting caught in chaos.

Within the Golden Gate formation, apart from Ye Shuying who remained cold-faced, Nie Wu, Li Qiao, and others all tensed up.

The newcomer was none other than Hong Zhong of the Demon Sky Palace, one of the Six Demonic Heroes!

Ye Shuying looked towards Hong Zhong, speaking coldly: ”Hong Zhong, why isn’t your Demon Sky Palace watching over the dragon vein at Kong Ao Island, what are you doing here!”

”Junior Brother Jin is keeping an eye over at Kong Ao Island, no need for Daoist Ye to worry, there won’t be any movements shortly~

And Brother Dongfang wants to be the ’first king of Earth Tribulation’, we’ve been friends for hundreds of years, how could I miss witnessing this in person!”

Saying this, Hong Zhong glanced at Dongfang Yi, whose figure was faintly visible in the Earth Qi, his smirk carrying a hint of coldness.

Ye Shuying’s eyes flickered coldly: ”Sharp words.”

”Hahaha, Daoist Ye overestimates it!” Hong Zhong laughed loudly, then raised his head to see afar, ”And it’s not just me, it seems everyone is quite concerned for Daoist Dongfang!”

Ye Shuying too sensed something, glancing subtly to the side.

Amidst the shining sun and moon, a large group of cultivators came from afar, precisely the Limitless Demon Sect.

At the forefront were twin sisters, one wore the Sun Ring on her left hand, the other wore the Moon Pendant on her right.

Just as there are five in the Four Great Vajra, there are seven in the Six Demonic Heroes;

These two, are the Limitless Demon Sect’s Zuo Xiaodan and Zuo Xiaoqian!

To the west, blood sea surged, sinister energy roared, Blood Fiend Sect’s supreme expert Hou Hai, also brought top sect experts.

For a moment, Demon Sky Palace, Limitless Demon Sect, Blood Fiend Sect, the Three Great Demon Sects of the Southern Continent, all arrived together!

”Three Great Demon Sects all gathered, and just two out of the Six Demonic Heroes, along with so many Burning Sun Experts... it seems Taishang Sect might face some difficulty!”

The crowd witnessing the arrival of Three Great Demon Sects murmured amongst themselves, clearly prepared for action.

”So many members of the Demon Sect!”

Inside the Eight Golden Lock Formation, some anxious disciples couldn’t help but feel nervous.

”Do not fear, just some Demon Sect folks, we have the Eight Golden Lock Formation, and Master Ye, Master Nie are right ahead, there’s no need for fear!”

Many disciples glanced at Ye Shumei behind them, and at the Burning Sun Masters ahead of the Eight Gates, feeling a bit more reassured.

The Three Great Demon Sects arrived together, seeing the towering eight Golden Gates ahead, refrained from any rash action.

Hong Zhong asked: ”Elder Gui, with your broad knowledge, do you recognize this formation?”

Next to Hong Zhong, an elder shrouded in black aura and wearing a dark hood, hiding his face, slowly replied:

”This is the Eight Golden Lock Formation, an ancient array, capable of concentrating the internal power of its people for defense.

I only found it in ancient texts, it’s the first time seeing it, don’t know it well.

But with our numbers, we can first try this formation, then attempt breaking it by force.”

Hong Zhong heard this, glanced towards Limitless Demon Sect and Blood Fiend Sect, nodded slightly:

”Let’s try then... All disciples heed my command, Demon Cloud Sky Sea!”

”Heha!”

With Hong Zhong’s low shout, many Demon Sky Palace cultivators simultaneously raised their hands to seal, more demonic energy surged from their bodies.

This technique, named Demon Cloud Sky Sea, is a practical skill learned by most Demon Sky Palace cultivators.

Not only for traveling, but also to consolidate power, combining collective strength into one.

In an instant, above the Demon Sky Palace crowd, magic clouds rolled, rapidly transmuting into a colossal Demon Cloud Giant Hand, striking towards Red Eyebrow Taoist at the Northern Golden Gate!
