We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real? Chapter 586: Grand Elder, What Impressive Methods You Have!
Previously on We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?...
The negotiations between the Human Alliance and the Demon Alliance during the day ultimately still failed to reach an agreement.
As for the few conditions proposed by the Human Alliance, the Demon Alliance only felt the Human Alliance was indulging in wild fantasy and dreaming in broad daylight.
The two sides broke into fierce arguments at the negotiation table and nearly came to blows.
Fortunately, Gui Ning stabilized the situation in time at the end.
Seeing that it was already impossible to continue the talks today, the two sides naturally had no choice but to suspend the negotiations for the time being.
However, neither side spoke so absolutely as to leave no room for retreat. Each left a little leeway.
Xiao Mo felt that the failure of the peace talks was normal.
What surprised Xiao Mo was that after an entire day, he still had not seen Tushan Jingci.
Logically speaking, for such an important occasion, Jingci, as the holy daughter of the Tushan clan, ought to have attended in person.
That night after the negotiations.
Moonlight flowed like water, quietly spilling over the mountaintop.
Xiao Mo was sitting in the courtyard with his eyes closed in meditation.
All of a sudden, ripples of spiritual power visible to the naked eye slowly spread outward in every direction from the sky above Tushan. Even the plants and trees in the courtyard trembled softly.
“Xiao Mo, look...”
In the courtyard, Gui Junmeng extended a slender, scallion-white jade finger and pointed toward the bright moon hanging high in the night sky.
...
“Mother, look... The moon in the sky is so bright...”
“Father, why is the moon so red?”
“What is going on with the moon today? Why is it so unusual?”
“Something bad isn’t going to ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) happen, is it?”
At the same time, within Tushan, more and more fox-clan members raised their heads and looked into the night sky.
That clear, bright moon grew increasingly radiant. Moonlight poured down, covering all of Tushan.
But before long, the moon’s color grew deeper and deeper, redder and redder, transforming little by little into a blood moon.
“RUMBLE!”
The next instant, along with an earth-shaking boom, all of Tushan jolted violently, as if an earth dragon had rolled over and the mountains were shaking.
Specks of spiritual power intertwined with the pure moonlight, continuously condensing in the air before finally forming a barrier that enveloped all of Tushan.
The Human Alliance cultivators rose to their feet one after another, lifting their heads to look at that barrier, their expressions grave.
“Tushan’s Grand Elder, what are you doing?”
Before the Human Alliance cultivators could question her, Cun Caiguang, head of Cold Mountain Academy, had already flown into the air and directly questioned Tushan Meng.
According to the agreement made in advance between the two sides, Tushan’s grand formation was not to be activated during the peace talks.
Yet now, Tushan had not only activated the grand formation, it had even completely cut off the heaven and earth inside from the outside.
Even a fool knew what the intention was.
“Tushan Meng, come out and give us an explanation!”
At the same time, Gui Ning also flew into the air and shouted loudly toward Tushan Meng.
“There is nothing to explain.”
Tushan Meng’s voice was cold.
“For the thousand-year undertaking of my Tushan, and also for the future of the demon-race world, I merely need all of you to lend me a little help.”
As Tushan Meng’s words slowly fell, the Moon God Tree on Moon God Peak suddenly began to grow upward madly, as if it meant to pierce through the night.
In less than half an incense stick’s worth of time, the Moon God Tree had already grown to more than a hundred zhang tall.
Immediately afterward, thick vines spread out from the Moon God Tree’s branches and trunk like countless spirit serpents, lashing fiercely toward the Human Alliance cultivators of the upper five realms.
“Not good! Go!” Daoist Yunxi’s expression changed, and she immediately sent a voice transmission to everyone.
Xiao Mo and the others swiftly gathered together and flew rapidly toward the outside of Tushan.
In Daoist Yunxi and the others’ view, even though this formation had already been activated, with their strength, they could still withdraw safely.
However, a trace of doubt faintly rose in Daoist Yunxi’s heart.
Tushan Meng certainly knew as well that this grand formation alone could not trap their group.
Then why had she still done this?
Could it be that she had some other move prepared?
When everyone reached the transparent barrier, Daoist Yunxi waved the fly whisk in her hand, attempting to tear open a gap in the barrier.
The fly whisk in Daoist Yunxi’s hand was an immortal weapon. It possessed the miraculous effect of “dissolving all arts and breaking restrictions.”
Very quickly, that barrier was forcibly torn open by Daoist Yunxi.
Xiao Mo immediately recited a spell formula. The long river of yin and yang slowly flowed around them, protecting everyone within it as they passed through that gap together.
Yet just when they thought they had finally escaped Tushan.
Everyone suddenly discovered that they were still inside Tushan.
They had merely been shifted from one direction within Tushan to another.
“How is that possible?”
Daoist Yunxi’s willow brows furrowed tightly, her heart filled with shock and doubt.
She immediately separated out a wisp of divine sense and carefully sent it into that barrier, trying to understand the way this grand formation operated.
But before long, a deep confusion flashed through Yunxi’s eyes.
Yunxi had cultivated since childhood, and her understanding of formations was extremely profound and thorough.
Looking across the two worlds, there were probably not even two people whose attainments in formations surpassed hers.
If not for that, she would not have had such confidence in personally coming to Tushan to attend the banquet and the peace talks.
However, in the thousands of years she had cultivated, she had never seen the grand formation before her.
The formation patterns of this grand formation were extremely obscure and difficult to decipher. Not a single inscription was written in characters used by the current demon race or human race.
Yet those unfamiliar symbols also seemed to contain the power of the Heavenly Way.
“Hahaha... Grand Elder, what impressive methods you have!”
Not far away, the voice of a Demon Alliance cultivator rang out.
“We truly thought the Grand Elder had invited us here to negotiate with the Human Alliance.” That person gave a cold laugh. “Unexpectedly, it turns out the Grand Elder was luring us into a trap and shutting the door to beat the dogs!”
The patriarch of the Soaring Serpent clan and the others flew into the air one after another, looking down from above at Xiao Mo’s group, their eyes filled with mockery and killing intent.
They also did not know exactly what origins this grand formation had, that it could actually imprison an upper-three-realm cultivator like Yunxi.
Moreover, Tushan Meng did not seem worried that once so many upper-three-realm cultivators started fighting, all of Tushan would be razed flat.
However, that no longer mattered.
In any case, this was not their territory. So what if it was smashed to pieces?
“Elder Tushan, we will lend you a hand!”
One Demon Alliance cultivator had long since been unable to restrain himself. He had coveted Gui Junmeng, who looked exactly like Tushan Jingci, for a long time.
If he could use her for harvesting and supplementing, then stepping into the Ascension Realm did not seem entirely impossible!
However, he had flown less than a hundred zhang.
From the Moon God Tree, a thick vine suddenly tore through the air toward him.
“SPLURT!”
A burst of sharp pain spread from his chest. He violently spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body froze in midair.
He lowered his head and looked at his chest, only to see that the vine had already pierced through his heart. Blood dripped down the vine, drop by drop.
