Chapter 243
A highly crisp sound of collision rang out, Elian felt his head ringing again.
Why is there a wall here?
No, it’s a confinement formation.
There’s actually another formation on the outside? Why didn’t I sense it at all? There should have been spiritual energy fluctuations.
Who on earth set up these formations? Why is their mastery so impossibly high?
"A measly broken formation thinks it can stop me?!" Elian swung the bronze mace in his hand, layers upon layers of mace phantoms appeared, looking as if they would dye the entire sky a bronze hue.
However, the seemingly fragile confinement formation was unexpectedly resilient.
No matter how violently Elian’s bronze mace smashed into it, he couldn’t crack it in the slightest.
His heart was filled with sheer horror, he had never encountered such a bizarre formation.
Not only could it condense an opponent perfectly matched to him, but it could also set up a confinement array entirely without his notice.
All of it made him feel profoundly unsettled.
By now, the battle inside the cave had entered a white-hot phase. Houda and his replica exchanged fist for fist, terrifying bursts of qi overflowed, leaving the earth damaged beyond recognition.
Adam sat outside the formation, observing the overall situation, his eyes flickered, evidently highly satisfied with this battle.
All of this was the result of his meticulous planning, his absolute goal was to exhaust the strength of Elian and the Demon.
The battle grew increasingly intense, Elian had to simultaneously fend off attacks from his replica and resist the terrifying aftershocks of Houda’s fist techniques, he was utterly exhausted, his body covered in countless new wounds.
Yet he simply couldn’t disengage.
Suddenly, the replica standing before him vanished into thin air, his eyes instantly lit up.
The formation’s time limit has been reached! I knew it! How could such an overpowered formation last forever? I have a chance to survive!
Houda also had wounds on his body, but his face was etched with displeasure, he hadn’t fought to his heart’s content yet.
Outside the formation, Adam moved further away, the corners of his mouth curling upward.
The real show is only just beginning.
Inside the formation, Elian watched his replica dissipate, his eyes were filled with joy.
Finally, this grand formation had run its course.
However, after the joy faded, he looked at the Demon with a face full of extreme vigilance.
This Demon was at the Ninth Heaven of the Deity Realm.
If the other party decided to attack him, he still wouldn’t survive, he was thoroughly bewildered.
How could a Demon of such terrifying strength appear in a place like this? What about the Heavenly Court? Weren’t they going to do anything?
"Don’t worry, I won’t kill you right now, we have a common goal, to kill that bastard Adam!" The Demon man’s voice suddenly rang out, giving him a massive start, but he still breathed a sigh of relief.
This Demon probably wasn’t lying, because there was no need to, he didn’t need reasons to kill him.
"To think that Adam actually laid down such a terrifying formation here, could he also be a formation master?" Houda frowned, he had been played yet again, he didn’t even dare to imagine how furious the Commander would be when he returned.
"Um, should we join forces to break the formation first? There is still an outer layer of confinement formation here, I just tried, and I couldn’t break it," Elian braced himself and suggested.
"Oh?" Houda was somewhat surprised.
This Nova Clan member was an Eighth Heaven Deity at the very least, even he couldn’t break this formation? Was Adam’s mastery truly that high?
"Let me try!" Black mist surged around Houda’s body, he threw a punch, and terrifying demonic energy swept out like a hurricane, crashing into the confinement formation.
However, although the formation shuddered violently, it ultimately remained as stable as a mountain, showing not the slightest sign of cracking.
"This formation is a bit bizarre." Houda frowned, his vigilance toward Adam rising several notches.
"It is indeed bizarre, I couldn’t break it either," Elian smiled bitterly.
He was extremely bewildered, what exactly was the origin of this formation? Did Adam set it up himself? Did he really possess such astonishing mastery?
One had to remember, the Dao of Formations was extremely profound, formations were different from cultivation, cultivation emphasized talent, fortuitous encounters, and hard work, but formations required insanely high talent and financial resources.
Talent went without saying, the requirements for the Formation Dao were much steeper than cultivation, resources were even more crucial.
The sheer consumption of wealth involved far exceeded ordinary imagination, he knew Adam’s background and identity perfectly well.
It should have been completely impossible for him to possess this level of mastery.
"Again!" Houda refused to believe it, how could a Ninth Heaven Deity and an Eighth Heaven Deity be trapped by a Second Heaven brat?
Demonic energy surged from his body, blotting out the sky. "Peerless Purgatory Fist!"
He threw another punch, and a terrifying fist imprint swept out, viciously smashing against the confinement array.
The entire heaven and earth seemed to tremble, Elian hurriedly circulated his spiritual energy to resist the aftershocks.
Too terrifying, just from the aftershocks alone, he felt like he couldn’t hold on.
However, the formation still showed absolutely no signs of cracking, after a violent shudder, it returned to an unyielding calm.
"This formation..." Houda furrowed his brows tightly, he could be certain that this was definitely not something Adam could have set up, it was at least the work of a Grand Formation Master.
But looking across the entire Human Race, the number of Grand Formation Masters could be counted on one hand.
Someone capable of setting up this kind of grand formation simply didn’t exist in his memory, just where did Adam find a formation master to set this up for him?
"Adam, I know you’re here! I advise you to be smart and let us out immediately, otherwise, once the formation’s time limit passes, I will make you beg for death!" Houda suddenly shouted into the sky, his voice rolled like roaring thunder, echoing beneath the firmament.
But answering him was only dead silence.
Elian was a bit dumbfounded.
If he were Adam, he definitely wouldn’t stay here.
