Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2253 Chapter 1043: Sever!_3
Previously on Immortality Through Array Formations...
Mo Hua is the one who brought about the slaughter of their descendants.
He is the root cause of this entire catastrophe.
The true instigator behind everything.
"Die!"
The five Heaven Void Dharma Phases illuminate the firmament with golden radiance, their expressions twisted into masks of ferocious, lethal intent. One maneuvers a levitating blade, another brandishes a colossal sword, a third swings a great sword to sunder the heavens, a fourth unleashes a punch that morphs into a dragon, while the last clears away all laws; every strike is meticulously aimed to obliterate Mo Hua, an insignificant Foundation Establishment ant.
Their singular goal is to crush Mo Hua, pulverizing his very being until not even a shred of his Divine Soul remains.
Yet, Mo Hua remains steadfast, eyes tilted upward, his composure unshaken; not a flicker of hesitation mars his pale features.
Just as those five terrifying Heaven Void Dharma Phases reach the threshold of crushing him into nothingness,
the entire fifth-grade Mount of Tao large formation erupts in a blinding, earth-shaking display of brilliance.
Boundless spiritual power, surging like a celestial river, is swallowed up by the fifth-grade array patterns, rushing through the formation pivot and driving the massive construct to its absolute limit.
It feels as if some primeval beast has been jarred from its slumber.
A deep, resonant "hum" vibrates through the heavens and earth—the roar of spirit energy signaling that the large formation has been fully activated and is circulating immense quantities of power.
Across the expanse above Mount of Tao, the void momentarily transforms, taking on the appearance of a vast galaxy.
Suddenly, the massive power of the fifth-grade void large formation descends from the sky, enveloping Mo Hua completely and shielding him from the relentless annihilation unleashed by the five Heaven Void Dharma Phases.
The Heaven Void Dharma Phase derives from the unique Eternal Life Rune, designed specifically to safeguard the Sect's most promising prodigy.
Mo Hua intended to eliminate those five prodigies.
Those Heaven Void Dharma Phases, in turn, sought to suppress and execute Mo Hua.
However, the Mount of Tao’s fifth-grade large formation was originally constructed to defend the sword ceremony disciples.
As a participant in the sword ceremony, Mo Hua is under its protection.
Consequently, the Mount of Tao large formation will never permit these five Heaven Void Dharma Phases to inflict harm upon a sword ceremony disciple within its borders.
This has become a clash at the Void Realm level.
The sheer might of the fifth-grade large formation collides violently against the five Heaven Void Dharma Phases upon Mount of Tao.
In an instant, the world shifts in color; the vast starlight and the golden luminescence of the Dharma Phases trade lethal blows. Overwhelming spiritual power blankets the earth, intertwining and constricting until a terrifying spirit tide lashes out, radiating toward the surrounding area.
The entirety of the Mount of Tao and every sword ceremony ground is instantly leveled by this cataclysmic tide.
Mountain forests and the very ground itself are reduced to cinders.
The aftermath, relentless, ruptures the boundaries of the large formation like a ferocious ancient dragon hungry to devour all of creation.
Yet, because this Void Realm clash occurs entirely within the confines of the fifth-grade large formation,
it remains strictly contained by those very restrictions.
The fifth-grade large formation operates with frantic intensity, emitting a shrill, piercing "spirit roar" that harnesses its formidable control to pin down the spirit tide, preventing the chaos from bleeding outside.
If not for this intervention, the whole of Mount of Tao would be razed to the ground.
Any cultivator below the Heaven Void level would be extinguished without leaving a single bone behind if caught in the wake of the collision between the fifth-grade large formation and the five Heaven Void Dharma Phases.
At this moment, all the observing cultivators stand isolated by the formation barrier,
their faces drained of color and trembling with terror as they bear witness to this nightmare.
They watch as the Heaven Void Level spiritual power, resembling a tsunami that threatens to swallow the sky, surges toward them, only to be held back by the stalwart formation.
Their lives hang by a literal thread, yet they are utterly helpless.
Before such overwhelming, god-like power, all living beings are reduced to mere ants; their survival is entirely out of their own hands.
Above the sky of Mount of Tao, the conflict remains a split between void and golden light.
The battle between the fifth-grade large formation and the Heaven Void Dharma Phases drags on.
The spirit tide continues to crash in relentless waves,
and because this is the fifth-grade boundary, the Heaven Void Realm can exert its full pressure. The Heaven Void Dharma Phases, birthed from the shattered Eternal Life Rune, burn with an insatiable, vengeful hatred that prevents them from simply fading away.
As long as the “instigator” Mo Hua lives and the source of this karma remains, those Heaven Void Dharma Phases will persist.
The fifth-grade large formation shields Mo Hua, weathering the onslaught of the five Heaven Void Dharma Phases and absorbing the brunt of their attacks.
But this Heaven Void killing intent appears infinite.
They will not stop until Mo Hua is dead.
At last, the Mount of Tao large formation seems to reach its limit of "patience."
It will not tolerate any person or any force violating the rules of the sword ceremony
by attempting to harm Mo Hua.
A primeval hum from a sword echoes through the heavens.
On Mount of Tao, the White Jade Platform stands surrounded by nine towering monoliths, each inscribed with majestic, divine beasts and wreathed in auspicious patterns.
In the heart of the platform sits a white jade ancient sword, ten meters in length, appearing like a miniature mountain peak.
Its body, transparent and crystalline, emanates an aura that feels both ageless and vast.
This sword is the sacred relic of the Mount of Tao ancestor.
Before every sword discussion, this blade is offered prayers.
The altars are unveiled, offerings are presented, blood is sacrificed to break the seal, and all Qianxue Debate disciples worship the blade with utmost sincerity to soothe the ancestor's spirit and invoke the ancestral protection of Mount of Tao.
Suddenly, the light within the auspicious beast patterns on the White Jade Platform
begins to glow.
The massive Dao Discussion Ancient Sword releases a low resonance, its jade-like
sword Qi erupting toward the nine heavens, perfectly aligning with the fifth-grade
Mount of Tao large formation.
High above the Mount of Tao, the shadow of an Elder suddenly manifests.
While this shadow is composed entirely of formation power and lacks distinct features, its presence is profound and boundless, as if a titan is standing in the firmament.
The giant phantom stands tall, its hand—forged from void energy—grasping the white jade ancient sword as if it were a tiny rock, and with one horizontal sweep, a wave of sword Qi like an inverted Milky Way surges forth. It is utterly unstoppable, cleaving the five Heaven Void Dharma Phases directly in two.
With that single strike, all five Heaven Void Dharma Phases are instantly extinguished, their spiritual power vanishing into nothingness.
The spectral Elder returns the sword to its place on the White Jade Platform, his form slowly melting back into the world.
The fifth-grade Mount of Tao large formation gradually settles.
The piercing roar of spirit energy fades into silence.
The terrifying spirit tide begins to abate, eventually being fully absorbed and reclaimed
by the formation.
Heaven and earth are finally restored to quietude.
Before the formation, the gathered cultivators, including all the elite guests in the Sword Observation Tower, remain paralyzed by lingering shock, their minds numb and dazed.
In the span of half a day, a sequence of horrific revelations had unfolded.
They almost convinced themselves that what they had witnessed was not a debate of prodigies, but a genuine, cataclysmic duel at the Heaven Void level...
