Chapter 44: Avenue Sequence Array: Heaven and Earth Chessboard
Beyond the Blue Realm.
In the [Hunyuan Heluo Formation] deployed across a hundred thousand miles of galaxy, there are now less than six million Zerg species left.
When the Zerg half-lords invaded, the total number of Zerg was over hundreds of millions.
In these years, apart from being wiped out by 20% by the ‘Heluo Formation’ and the meteorite belt, the one who killed the Zerg the most was Zhang Ke.
Back then, he used 'infrasonic waves' and the [Sonic Shock Spiral] magical weapon to kill nearly 50 million blade insects in one go.
The remaining ones were killed by the practitioners of the azure realm in the void battlefield.
Its total number is about 40 million. After all, the insect nest will continue to hatch new insect species.
Although the number of these Zerg races remaining today is not very large, in fact these are the essence of the Void Zerg race.
Except for about five million insect soldiers who are equivalent to the innate realm among the six million Zerg, the rest are all guards and above.
As the "Heluo Formation" continued to shrink, the remaining Zerg remnants also learned their lesson and gathered together according to their race.
Therefore, within a hundred thousand miles of the galaxy today, hundreds of huge insect balls gathered by the Zerg race can be seen.
These insect balls have the last five hundred or so low-level insect nests as the core, with varying numbers of insect leaders sitting in them.
Layers of insect soldiers form a barrier on the outside, and mid-to-high-level insect races such as guards and warriors are hidden inside.
Hundreds of huge insect balls appear to be chaotic, but they are constantly rotating and moving in the galaxy with the cooperation of the Zerg leaders.
At the beginning of the formation of the insect ball, the practitioners in the blue world really suffered a big loss.
Many practitioners who rashly broke into the gap between the insect balls were directly stunned by the various innate spells issued by the cooperation of hundreds of insect balls.
Among them, one Dao Lord and forty-seven Yuanshen True Lords died on the spot.
After more than a year of trial and error, Daojun Dao of Destruction and others were forced to create a special formation to crack the insect ball.
At this time, tens of thousands of practitioners headed by Dao Jun of Destruction were divided into several teams according to the number of insect balls.
Each of the three teams forms a group and locks a ball of insect balls, ready to attack at any time.
In addition, just in case, Daojun Destruction also selected twenty teams as reserve teams to kill the Zerg that escaped from trouble.
The Tao Lord's spiritual thoughts of destruction enveloped tens of thousands of practitioners on his side, and he confirmed the goals of each team with several Tao Lords around him.
Then he transmitted the message with his spiritual thoughts:
"Comrades, forty-seven years ago, hundreds of millions of Zerg invaded this realm, preparing to devour the flesh and blood of trillions of creatures in this realm to strengthen themselves.
If the Zerg successfully invades this world, it will be a catastrophe.
However, that is our home, and it is the home that we will defend with our lives.
For the sake of the human race and countless innocent creatures in the realm, we have trapped the Zerg race in this 'Hunyuan Heluo Formation' with our flesh and blood.
So far, this world has lost sixteen Dao Lords and 6,743 Yuanshen True Lords."
Having said this, Lord Destruction Dao couldn't help but feel a little eclipsed.
And the many practitioners all over the void were silent.
The total number of Dao Lords in the Blue Realm does not exceed four hundred. Since the Immortal Cultivators left the realm, the total number of fallen Dao Lords in the past eight thousand years has not been this many.
What's more, more than 6,000 True Lords of Yuanshen have fallen.
You must know that there are only more than 24,000 Yuanshen True Monarchs fighting against the Zerg in the void battlefield this time.
More than 20% of the casualties will have unimaginable consequences for the overall strength of the Blue World.
In addition, after this battle, we don’t know how many practitioners will die.
Gathering his thoughts, Dao Jun of Destruction continued:
"However, it is all worth it, because of our efforts, countless humans and creatures have escaped this disaster.
I believe that as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded.
Now the confrontation between this world and the Zerg has reached the moment of final battle.
As long as you can seize this last opportunity, more comrades will surely be able to advance to the next level after the war."
Why do countless practitioners risk their lives to fight in the void battlefield?
In addition to the constraints of the world's sect precepts and rules, it is actually more for oneself.
Only in this kind of war that can change the fate of the Blue Realm can you show yourself to the fullest.
Many practitioners who are in front of barriers can achieve breakthroughs with the favor of the will of heaven and earth.
What practitioners fear is never death, but the loss of the way forward.
After this battle, as long as the tens of thousands of practitioners who participated in the war survive, any practitioners who are trapped in their current realm and cannot improve will definitely break through the existing small realm.
There might even be a large number of Dao Lords appearing.
And this is what all the True Lord Yuanshen present most expect.
However, it is not easy to gain enough favor from the will of heaven and earth. This requires you to make sufficient achievements in the void battlefield.
Why was Zhang Ke found an excuse to be driven back to the Blue Realm after killing 50 million blade insects to deal with the Qiongzhou "Ghost Gate Opening" incident?
It's because Zhang Ke performed so brilliantly in this war between the Azure Realm and the Zerg.
Whether it was discovering the Zerg invasion in advance to warn the Blue Realm, or assisting Lord Dao of Destruction and others to kill the Zerg half-lord, and the huge damage he caused to the Zerg, these actions blinded the eyes of countless practitioners.
With him here, his ability to kill the Zerg on a large scale will definitely dilute the achievements of other practitioners.
So even though the war in the void was tense, Zhang Ke was eventually persuaded to leave.
The Taoist Lord of Destruction raised his right hand as he spoke, and waited until he finished speaking a few words.
He suddenly waved his arm toward the void where the insect ball was in the galaxy, and issued the final command.
"Destroy the Zerg now, attack!"
With a command, tens of thousands of practitioners flashed their bodies and rushed towards the insect ball in the galaxy.
On this empty road of charge, nearly two thousand teams had spontaneously formed.
Each group of three teams rushed towards the target insect nest locked in advance.
The Dao Lord of Destruction did not dare to neglect, and called on the ninety-nine Dao Lords who had set up the "Hunyuan Heluo Formation" to perform Taoist techniques at the same time.
A hundred soaring auras rose from Daojun Dao of Destruction and others, just like a hundred pillars piercing the sky and appeared in the void.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Immediately afterwards, the nine Tao Lords headed by the Dao Lord of Destruction each threw an innate spiritual treasure.
Whether it is a mirror, an axe, a ring, a lamp, a needle, or a rope, they are all different.
Among them, six innate spiritual treasures shine with a brilliance that eclipses the stars in the void and are fixed in the void from six directions: southeast, northwest, up and down.
All hundreds of insect balls are enveloped in brilliance.
The remaining three innate spiritual treasures gathered together and rushed directly into the center of hundreds of insect nests to form a stable triangle position.
Then hundreds of Dao Lords mobilized the power of the Law of the Void and penetrated the three spiritual treasures positioned in the triangle from all directions.
In an instant, the dark and deep void was flooded with countless dharma spiritual lights, as bright as the dusk with colorful clouds after the rain.
Magnificent, psychedelic, brilliant!
With the endless infusion of mana, the three innate spiritual treasures that make up the core triangle burst out thousands of black and white rays of light.
These rays of light were first connected to the six spiritual treasures that shrouded the nearby void, and then each of them burst out the same light and connected to the other spiritual treasures one by one.
At the same time, hundreds of Dao Lords threw black and white magic chess pieces from their hands and positioned them at all the nodes where the black and white light rays intersected.
In addition, there are three thousand Yuanshen True Monarchs each using mana to continuously pour mana into the hundreds of black and white chess pieces to maintain the operation of the formation.
In just a quarter of an hour, the nearby void for thousands of miles was filled with crisscrossing black and white light.
Two thousand and forty-eight grids fill the void.
Those hundreds of insect balls were also completely imprisoned in the black and white light grids.
Avenue Sequence Array: Heaven and Earth Chessboard
This is the banning formation that Master Dao of Destruction and others have been deriving for a year.
It has a powerful isolation and confinement effect.
Although the formation could not be perfected due to the rush of time, the formation did not last long enough.
But it is enough for the current battle situation.
The moment the formation was successfully deployed, the laws of the void changed along with the formation, and the nearby void was completely blocked.
Don't come out, don't come in!
Only when the big formation dissipates can this place return to normal.
Time was running out, so the Taoist Lord of Destruction immediately transmitted his voice in the void with his spiritual thoughts.
"kill!"
Many teams that had been prepared for a long time penetrated the black and white light grids like arrows, attacking the imprisoned worm ball from all directions.
In an instant, endless brilliance and fluctuations burst out from the more than two thousand grids.
Sometime three days later.
"Crack-!"
Suddenly, a sound like the sound of chess pieces falling on the board came from the void.
In contrast, the bug balls in a grid were destroyed, and countless bugs were wiped out.
The Dao Lord of Destruction, who was operating the [Heaven and Earth Chessboard] at full capacity, and thousands of other people all breathed a sigh of relief.
Although no sound could be transmitted in the void, at this moment, everyone seemed to hear the sound of cheers ringing in their ears.
...
Penglai sea area.
The place where the Dinghai Dharma Pillar was built.
Zhang Ke stood on a wisp of clouds, solemnly using his 'spiritual probe' to explore the 'Dinghai Pillar'.
Beside him were Bi Luo, Xu Qingzhi, Bai Shi, Shui Xingfeng, Shi Zhongxiu and others who were also standing on the clouds.
The [Great Vajra Pan Talisman Array] deployed by the ‘Dinghai Dharma Pillar’ has now completed seven turns, and only the last turn is left to complete the construction of the Dharma Pillar.
But even this last turn could never be completed.
Three months ago, when everyone thought that this last transfer would be successfully superimposed with the 'talisman sticking' technique, the runic light curtain collapsed without warning.
If Zhang Ke hadn't reacted quickly and dispersed the patterns of the last [Great Vajra Pan Talisman Array] in time, it might have also affected the Talisman Array that the pillar had been integrated into before.
In the next three months, Lord Baishi and his six hundred disciples experimented no less than five times, but they were still unable to fit the last talisman formation together.
At this moment, I looked at the gauze-like light curtain in the distance once again attached to the ‘Dinghai Dinghai Dharma Pillar’.
Zhang Ke took a slight breath, flicked the fingers of his hands, and in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of platinum rays of light shot out from his fingertips.
The spiritual light accurately covered the light curtain of Lord Baishi's manifestation without any sluggishness.
All nodes and runes are integrated with the aura one by one.
After a while, the [Great Vajra Pan Talisman Array] formed by tens of thousands of spiritual lights was once again superimposed and nested into the 'Dinghai Dinghai Dharma Pillar'.
Zhang Ke and others stared at the changes in the 'Dinghai Dharma Pillar'.
The formation that fit together this time was designed by Zhang Ke and Lord Baishi after repeated deductions, and there was absolutely no error or omission.
but...
A quarter of an hour later, some nodes of the talisman array that seemed to have been integrated into the pillar began to shine with spiritual light.
Zhang Ke sighed and struck out with a palm, directly dispersing the talisman array.
As the endless aura dissipated, Zhang Ke couldn't help but frown.
'What exactly went wrong?'
He was sure that there was nothing wrong with the talisman array, but for some reason the last turn of the talisman array never fit properly.
This was true even if he had activated the power of the law of 'superposition'. This was the first time he had encountered this situation, and he could not find out the reason for it for a while.
‘Is it possible that the seven-turn talisman array can only be used to construct the pillar?’
'It's just that as a result, the sturdiness and defensiveness of the pillar have been reduced hundreds of times!'
Even though the last stacked talisman array is just one, this talisman array actually contains thirty-six [Small Vajra Pan Talisman Array].
And each of these [Small Vajra Pan Talisman Array] is composed of 360 eight-turn 'strong' talisman patterns.
So even though it is just a [Great Vajra Pan Talisman Array], the integration of this Talisman Array has a great impact on the Dharma Pillar.
It's like the game of 'dropping rice on the board'.
There may be only one grain of rice in the first grid, but as it continues to double, the number of rice grains required in subsequent grids will be astronomical.
Bi Luo's hands flashed with spiritual light, and she refined a pair of green and red gauntlet hooks in her hands.
As early as when she went to Dingzhou's "Ben Zong", Zhang Ke gave her this pair of rare aggressive innate spiritual treasures.
Ninth Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure: List of Missing Double Hooks
Although this is just a pair of ninth-grade innate spiritual treasures, it is because they are a pair of treasures with killing attributes.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even some other innate spiritual treasures above the sixth level dare not touch it.
And this pair of hand hooks has only one function.
One hook and two sections!
As long as it is caught by these double hooks, no matter whether it is a treasure, a practitioner, or even a spell, it will not be spared.
Bi Luo's Ghost Talisman Technique is powerful in long-range attacks, but it may be dangerous if you get close.
So Zhang Ke gave this pair of spiritual treasures to his junior sister.
At this time, Bi Luo looked at her senior brother's frown and suddenly said:
"Brother!"
Zhang Ke turned around when he heard the sound.
"What's wrong, junior sister!"
Biluo asked:
"Why does senior brother have to use this 'talisman sticking' technique?"
"Well, this technique can greatly speed up the construction of magic pillars.
Even though this technique may seem inconspicuous, it will be used in many places in the future."
Bi Luo pondered and said:
"I think the reason why the last talisman formation, senior brother, cannot be superimposed and integrated into the magic pillar may be because of the 'talisman sticking' technique."
Zhang Ke and True Lord Baishi were both startled, and even Shi Zhongxiu and others turned their gazes.
"What do you mean by this, junior sister?"
Biluo explained:
"I remember that my senior brother created a flying 'Petrel Formation' in the past.
The tattoo engraver needs to integrate the rune patterns into the body bit by bit. Only in this way can the rune patterns and the mana in the body form an integral response to each other.
The runes that are pasted on are just pasted on, and they will never fit as well as the runes that are directly integrated into the pillar.
So I guess it is because of this reason that the last talisman array has never been able to be superimposed and integrated."
One word awakens the dreamer.
After Zhang Ke and Zhenjun Baishi were stunned for a moment, they suddenly realized.
'Yes, how can the talisman array attached to it completely match the array pattern in the core of the pillar.'
'It seems that the problem arises here.'
'However, if this is the case, then wouldn't there be problems with the talisman array that was integrated into the magic pillar using the 'talisman sticking' technique?'
He glanced at Lord Shiraishi and saw that he was also frowning, so he had obviously thought of this.
At that moment, the two of them did not dare to neglect. They flew to the magic pillar and used various means to explore the structure of the talisman array inside the magic pillar.
After three hours passed, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
There is no abnormality in the structure of the talisman array within the pillar. There is no problem with the smoothness of the vitality nodes or the stability of the talisman array.
Now that the problem is found, everything is easier to solve.
Zhang Ke, who had deployed this talisman array countless times in the past three years, was already familiar with this talisman array.
This time, Zhang Ke was no longer pretending to be someone else. He just reconstructed this talisman array in just two days.
Then he personally superimposed and nested the last [Great Vajra Pan Talisman Array] into the pillar.
The smoothness of this process even exceeded the imagination of Zhang Ke and others.
At the same time, while constructing the eighth-turn talisman formation, Zhang Ke also discovered something.
This last turn of the talisman array is like using a tattoo needle to carve the tattoo pattern drawn in advance. Through the last process, the talisman array superimposed by the previous "talisman sticking" technique is completely integrated into a whole.
When Zhang Ke integrated the last talisman, the 'Dinghai Pillar' was finally successfully constructed.
Zhang Ke used all his magic power to slap the pillar with his palm.
As dazzling light like the sun burst out from his palm, hundreds of mysterious and complex runes suddenly appeared on the pillar.
And these runes were changing every moment, but soon these hundreds of runes were hidden into the cylinder.
This is also the key to closing the core sequence of the magic pillar.
In this way, only those who know the changes in rune patterns can control this special rune weapon.
Seeing the dark golden pillar, which was no more than five feet in diameter, standing steadily in the sea, Zhang Ke let out a sigh of satisfaction.
Nearly two hundred years of derivation and construction were finally completed at this moment.
The blue sky suddenly flew to Zhang Ke's side.
I looked at the pillar back and forth several times, but I couldn't believe that such a thin pillar could block the eye of the sea.
Compared with the five-mile-diameter sea eye, this pillar is like a needle inserted into a cup.
Couldn't help but ask:
"Senior brother, can this pillar work?"
Zhang Ke smiled happily and grabbed the air with his right hand.
A dark golden pillar with a diameter of five feet and a length of one hundred feet slowly rises from the sea.
After a while, a long stick holding up the sky broke away from the sea water and hung in the air.
"Boom--!"
As the Dharma Pillar leaves, the sea water below instantly fills the sea area it left, and whirlpools are naturally generated.
In full view of everyone, Zhang Ke pointed his right hand at the long stick in the air and suddenly let out a low shout.
"Little! Little! Little!"
After saying the word "small" three times, the dark golden pillar in the air suddenly flashed with golden light and shrank little by little, until it became the size of a hairpin.
Zhang Ke happily recalled the feeling of the monkey in the dream when he got the treasure, and felt very happy in his heart.
Putting the hairpin casually into his bun, Zhang Ke asked Xu Qingzhi who came to him:
"Qingzhi, the 'Dinghai Dharma Pillar' has been made. Have other preparations for Dinghai been completed?"
Xu Qingzhi said solemnly:
"Master, please rest assured that the eight mountain ships have been prepared for a long time, and the 360 Jindan Realm disciples have also rehearsed them dozens of times.
Other things that need to be refined are also complete."
Zhang Ke nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Okay! Without further ado, we will set sail to the Crescent Bay in three days!"
