Chapter 2541 - 2539: The Might of the Formation
The demons on the island were all startled by this and hurried over to watch.
Little Kirin and the others also rushed over. They saw the Moonlight Essence of the Formation growing stronger and stronger, already shining like a full moon rising from flat ground.
The Ground Rat Demon King called out anxiously, "Th-this is okay, right?"
Da Heiniu shouted in a hurry, "Let me go in and take a look."
Little Kirin stopped him and said, "No need to worry, this Formation is condensed from Lunar’s Light. The stronger the radiance, the more powerful the Formation."
As they were speaking, several loud blasts suddenly erupted from within the Formation, followed by an unending rumbling tremor.
After a while, Taihua’s Light completely dispersed.
Revealing a dense forest of black Formation Flags, at least a thousand of them, as thick as a woodland, each more than ten zhang tall.
Bald Dog was squatting inside, hugging one Formation Flag. He stared blankly at the people outside for a moment, then suddenly burst into a wail, "Damn it, I’m out, I finally got out."
Everyone looked at each other, then rushed in, grabbed him in a hug, cheering and jumping in excitement.
The Ground Rat Demon King cried out excitedly, "What on earth happened in there?"
Da Heiniu’s fists were clenched tight as well, "Yeah, you really scared us half to death."
Bald Dog spoke weakly, "Can you at least find me something to eat first? I was this close to starving to death."
Everyone laughed and quickly carried him out of the Formation, then used a huge cauldron to stew a pot of fish, shrimp, and seafood soup for him.
He first swallowed a few bottles of Pills, then took a breath and said, "Dangerous, dangerously dangerous! Luckily your Dog Master is a genius. At the critical moment I comprehended the mysteries of this Formation. In the end I drew in the endless Power of the Stars and blasted those ten-something damned Sea Dragons into slag with Lunar’s Light."
The Ground Rat Demon King held a big bowl to ladle soup for him, tore off a big shrimp tail for him, and asked in surprise, "This Formation is that powerful? To me it just looks like tens of thousands of Flag poles. How could it possibly blast more than ten True Immortals to death?"
The other Demon Kings were also shocked and puzzled, feeling that this Formation was a bit too heaven-defying.
Only Little Kirin and the others remained relatively calm; they had never doubted the power of this thing.
If this Formation weren’t formidable, Long Fei wouldn’t have left Bald Dog alone inside and ignored him.
Bald Dog drank a bowl of soup, took a bite of shrimp tail, and told them, "Don’t underestimate this Formation. These Formation Flags can actually withstand endless starlight power. When I drew the starlight, I thought the Flags would explode from the strain, but nothing happened at all. At first I thought this Formation could only defend, but after comprehending it to the end, I actually grasped some killing methods. Now it’s offense and defense in one; even if a True Immortal goes in, they’ll still die."
The Ground Rat Demon King asked curiously, "After those True Immortals of the Sea Dragon Clan died, did their Primordial Spirits remain?"
Bald Dog shook his head. "Nope. Body and spirit annihilated. Their Primordial Spirits turned into pure energy and were directly devoured by the Formation Flags."
Everyone clicked their tongues in amazement and felt another wave of admiration for Bald Dog.
Little Bai grinned at Bald Dog, "Father said you’re like a bottle that’s only half full—always sloshing and showing off—and wanted you tempered inside the Formation for a while. Looks like he was right. On the edge of life and death, people really can have their potential squeezed out."
Everyone roared with laughter, raised their wine bowls, and clinked a cup with Bald Dog.
Bald Dog wiped his mouth and said, "This Greedy Wolf Star Domain is just one corner of the Formation. The Celestial Grand Formation of the Universe has three hundred and sixty-five such Star Domains. Each main star is matched with a thousand subsidiary stars, making a total of three hundred sixty-five thousand Formation Flags. When the time comes, we’ll plant these Flags all over Liangshan Island, and this place will truly be impregnable."
All the Demon Kings were thrilled when they heard this and said one after another, "Then won’t we get to be Formation Masters in the future?"
"You’ll definitely get a share. With so many Formation Flags, someone has to act as Imperial Envoy for them."
"My god, I really want to use this Formation to blast a few True Immortals and see how it feels!"
"Hope this Formation gets set up soon, then we won’t have to fear those powerful enemies pressing in on us."
"That’s for sure!"
"..."
Everyone laughed heartily, refilled their cups, and raised them to drain another bowl.
Seeing Bald Dog come out, Little Kirin could finally feel at ease about heading to the East Sea for a while.
As dusk approached, Bald Dog couldn’t wait and picked out over a thousand Little Demons, all of them Demon Generals who had already cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm.
He brought these people over to drill in the Formation, to verify what he had understood in his heart.
Previously, when he was alone inside the Formation, only a single main star could move; the other subsidiary stars were dead without anyone to operate them.
A True Immortal expert could precisely pinpoint their location, use their Cultivation Technique to devour starlight, weaken the power of the Formation, and even break the Formation that way.
But with Demon Generals controlling the Formation, the effect became completely different.
Once the Formation came alive, within this Formation suffused everywhere with Space Law, even a meter’s distance became as far as a cosmic span.
Anyone inside simply couldn’t precisely locate the subsidiary stars.
Bald Dog, in high spirits, invited the Ground Rat Demon King and Da Heiniu to enter the Formation to try it out, and in just a few moves he tormented the two Great Demons until they were miserable.
Feeling smug, he then invited Little Kirin and the other four into the Formation, wanting to see if he could trap these five Divine Beasts.
Little Kirin and the others were also interested and entered the Formation together.
The moment they entered, the surroundings turned into the appearance of a starry sky.
Entering the Formation Domain was like entering a small world.
Bald Dog stood on the main star, grinning wickedly, "Young masters, young lady, I won’t be holding back!"
He controlled the subsidiary stars and immediately gathered starlight into swords, launching them toward Little Kirin and the others.
Little Bai shouted angrily, "You damn baldy, you’re going all out for real!"
They raised their swords to block. Bang, bang, bang—their blades shattered all the Sword Qi of starlight into powder.
Bald Dog clicked his tongue and said, "Impressive, impressive, you really are stronger than those idiot Sea Dragons. Too bad my starlight is endless and my sword light is inexhaustible. Let’s see how you break this."
"That mangy dog, I’m definitely beating him up later!"
Little Qing was speechless with anger, and together with the others already formed a Four-Sided Defense within the Five Elements Formation.
Beams of starlight Light Swords slashed down around them in a swish, swish, swish, only to be smashed apart by their Longswords with bang, bang, bang.
Little Kirin spoke with sudden understanding, "His Formation can unleash the Power of the Stars; we can also join forces with the Five Elements Formation to unleash the Emperor Sword and break the Formation with a Formation!"
"Got it!"
"Understood!"
The other four siblings quickly joined Formation with him and fully activated all five Emperor Swords.
Five sword beams merged into one within the Formation.
Using the power of the Five Elements Formation, they blasted outward, slamming head-on into the space barrier formed from starlight.
With a thunderous boom, the five Emperor Swords were incomparably fierce.
The Sword Qi shot skyward and directly tore open a rift in that space barrier.
The five of them whooshed out through the crack, but the Formation itself didn’t waver in the slightest, and the rift was quickly repaired and sealed.
Little Kirin and the others were all full of amazement. They hadn’t expected that these Little Demons, who hadn’t even broken through to the True Immortal Realm, could unleash such might by controlling this Formation.
If all three hundred and sixty-five main stars were in place, forming three hundred and sixty-five Celestial spaces...
Even if they broke out of one space, they would surely enter the next, still unable to break out of the Formation.
The power of this Formation was enough to make one’s scalp tingle just thinking about it.
Everyone watched the Formation from outside with great interest, constantly applauding and cheering for Bald Dog.
Bald Dog proudly dispelled the Formation, but the moment he stuck his head out he was seized by Little Kirin and the others, who had long been waiting for him outside.
Da Heiniu and the Ground Rat Demon King joined in as well, and they all gave this brat a thorough beating to vent their anger.
Just now, when they were inside the Formation, they had all been tormented badly by this kid.
