Chapter 1714 : Trap of the Six Ren Mystic Pearls

A total of ten Imperial Son-level figures charged in, their momentum carrying an intent to annihilate everything and sweep the Human Race clean.

Within the Formation, the faces of the Human Race cultivators changed drastically, yet they still mustered their full power to meet the assault.

In that instant, Ethereal Void Holy Son, Lyra Jiang, Qiyuan Chen, Kael Chen, Nyssa Qu, Verdant Consort, Chang Geng Sword Scion, and Pure Yang Holy Son all surged forward to confront them.

However, it was eight against fourteen. They were short by six Forbidden figures and, more critically, by two beings of the Protagonist of the Dao Tribulation-level. From the outset, the outcome of this battle seemed to hold no suspense.

"In this battle, we shall sweep the Human Race clean, laying the foundation in one stroke to dominate the entire Immortal Domain," Solaris, the Golden Crow Imperial Son declared inwardly.

With the Solar Divine Spear in hand, he soared into the air like a youthful Solar Celestial Emperor manifesting in the world, poised to suppress the great enemy of the Nine Heavens.

At that very moment, the Heavenly Layers trembled violently, and the entire Twenty-Four Heavens Grand Formation began to shift and change.

Between the Heavenly Layers, six dazzlingly brilliant mystic pearls resonated with the twenty-four Innate Treasure, their energies intertwining to evolve into a new, formidable Formation.

"The Six Ren Mystic Pearls!"

Solaris, the Golden Crow exclaimed, his expression one of utter shock. "This is bad. We've walked into a trap." This chapter is provided by www . audio-novel.com. Support the original.

His words had scarcely faded when he realized that twenty-two of the twenty-four Innate Treasure had linked with the Six Ren Mystic Pearls, forming a single Twenty-Eight Lunar Mansions Grand Formation.

The remaining two Mid-Grade Innate Treasure, the Supreme Sovereign Heaven-Sealing Mirror and the Ethereal Void Deity-Sealing Mirror, took position at the celestial center. They occupied the positions of Supreme Yin and Supreme Yang respectively, weaving together a Yin-Yang Heaven-Sealing Grand Formation.

The Formation [a complex arrangement of power used for attack, defense, or confinement] snapped into place in the blink of an eye. By the time anyone could react, it was already complete.

Qiang Sun [a powerful cultivator] stepped forward slowly, his gaze calm as he regarded the Heaven's Chosen [prodigies favored by destiny] powerhouses of the Demon and God Races. He spoke, his voice steady.

"Esteemed guests," he began, "this 'Yin-Yang Lunar Mansions Heaven-Sealing Grand Formation' ranks as the third most potent confinement formation within my Military School Sacred Land [a legendary sect specializing in strategy and warfare]."

"To use this formation to sever your retreat and serve as your final resting place is no dishonor to your formidable reputations."

"You—"

The assembled experts from the Demon and God Races paled instantly. The Yin-Yang Lunar Mansions Heaven-Sealing Grand Formation was one of the supreme Formation within the Three Thousand Immortal Domains [the vast cosmos of immortal realms]. Had it been laid by that Quasi-Sage [a being one step below the legendary Sages] master of the Military School himself, it could even trap and slay a Quasi-Sage.

The grand formation before them, however, was the result of a covert collaboration between Eldrin Chen and Qiang Sun. While the treasures powering it were of ordinary potency for their rank, it was more than sufficient to confine even those at the Great Perfection Celestial Immortal Realm [the pinnacle stage of the Celestial Immortal cultivation realm].

These Protagonist of the Dao Tribulation [key figures destined to shape the great cosmic upheaval] were beings of extraordinary origin. Each possessed life-saving ultimate treasures bestowed by Ancient Immortal Great Power [venerable and immensely powerful ancient immortals], making them notoriously difficult to pin down—even for existences at the Late Heaven Immortal Realm would struggle to hold them.

Yet at this moment, they discovered their own methods had failed, insufficient to breach this Formation and escape for their lives.

"Well done, Eternal Sun Clan! Well done, True Heir of the Military School! You of the Human Race are truly treacherous beyond measure!"

Verdant Sun Imperial Son laughed in extreme fury, his face, which had always been a mask of impassivity, now revealing an unprecedented flush of shame and rage.

This Qiang Sun had been introduced here on his recommendation, and now to be ensnared by Qiang Sun's scheme was utterly intolerable to him.

Seeing this, the Five-Colored Immortal Phoenix immediately spoke: "The Yin-Yang Lunar Mansions Heaven-Sealing Grand Formation possesses formidable sealing power, but it lacks lethal capabilities. As long as we slay them, we can surely break the formation and escape."

Hearing this, Verdant Sun Imperial Son declared.

"Qiang Sun!"

"You deserve death!"

With a furious roar, Verdant Sun Imperial Son gripped his Verdant Sun Divine Spear and surged forth with blazing divine might, intent on crushing Qiang Sun on the spot.

Unexpectedly, this Qiang Sun had hidden reserves of combat power; his strength had long since entered the Eleven Calamities Domain. Even facing the enraged Verdant Sun Imperial Son, he did not fall at a disadvantage after exchanging ten consecutive blows.

"The direct lineage of the Eternal Sun Clan, the true successor of the Military School Sacred Land."

"This Qiang Sun is truly worthy of being the heir favored by two Great Luo [the highest realm of cultivation] orthodoxies."

Above the Firmament, Ronan Luo of the Celestial Web Ancient Sect witnessed this scene and could not help but sigh.

Wuji Fengyun from the Wind Cloud Dao Palace also nodded, speaking with immense gravity: "To give the world an impression of arrogance and discord with Fellow Daoist Eldrin, he could even endure the ultimate humiliation of being stepped upon."

"This level of forbearance and temperament alone is unprecedented."

"Today, the disciples of the Demon and God Races were outmaneuvered; their defeat is not unjust." Join our community of readers at audi novel.com.

"*Hummm—*"

At the very instant the great battle erupted, a streak of radiant light tore across the heavens.

A single Chaos Heaven Halberd pierced through the void, its unstoppable force transfixing Lucian and impaling the Physical Body [the corporeal form cultivated to immense strength] of the Bifang Imperial Son in one fell swoop.

"*Aaaargh—*"

Caught off guard by the sudden ambush, Bifang Imperial Son had no time to react.

His Physical Body was instantly torn asunder, with only his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] managing to escape, desperately attempting to flee into the distance.

Yet, in that very instant, a colossal hand blotted out the heavens and descended with crushing force, immediately suppressing Bifang Imperial Son.

"BOOM—"

In that moment, Bifang Imperial Son erupted into a cataclysmic dissolution of his Dao [the fundamental principle or path in Chinese philosophy]. An infinite, dazzling radiance of immortal light burst forth, erupting like a torrential downpour of rain, blooming amidst the Heavenly Layers [the stratified celestial realms] like the most magnificent of fireworks.

At this sight, everyone present was struck with profound shock, their faces etched with utter disbelief.

This Bifang Imperial Son was a peerless Heaven's Chosen [a title for a prodigy favored by destiny] of the Forbidden Realm [a legendary cultivation stage], the most dazzling genius the Bifang Clan had produced in one hundred million years. His combat prowess was comparable to an existence at the Early Celestial Immortal Realm [the first major stage of the Celestial Immortal cultivation realm], and he was not considered weak even within that domain.

Yet such a figure was slain within two moves. Even accounting for the element of surprise, this outcome far exceeded everyone's expectations.

"HUM—"

And in that very moment, the Heavenly Layers [the stratified celestial realms] trembled with a resonant hum.

Behold, Eldrin Chen strode through the void, his hand closing around the Chaos Heaven Halberd and that Forbidden Dao Source. His gaze then fell upon Golden Crow Imperial Son and Verdant Sun Imperial Son.

With a resonant hum, he raised the Chaos Heaven Halberd, its point aimed at the two. "Both of you," he declared, his voice ringing clear. "Come at me together."

Contrary to expectation, the two did not refuse. Instead, their expressions grew profoundly grave.

Solaris, the Golden Crow spoke, his tone heavy with solemnity. "Your power has surged. Have you achieved the Flawless Dao Fruit [the perfect, unblemished fruit of one's cultivation path, representing the pinnacle of attainment before ascension]?"

"Not yet."

Eldrin Chen shook his head, then continued, "But it should be sufficient to deal with the likes of you."

"Innate Dao Principles?"

In that instant, Verdant Sun Imperial Son sensed the power of the Innate Dao Principles [the fundamental, inborn laws of the cosmos, a supreme cultivation art] emanating from the Chaos Heaven Halberd, causing his brow to furrow slightly.

He drew a deep breath before speaking. "No wonder you dared to let us enter. However, cultivating both the Innate True Body [a primordial, perfect physical form born of the cosmos] and the Innate Dao Principles... I fear your cultivation path ends here."

"Your current realm is, in essence, no different from a Flawed Celestial Immortal [a Celestial Immortal whose Dao Fruit is imperfect, limiting their ultimate potential]. You can be considered a true Heavenly Immortal Paragon [a peerless master among Heavenly Immortals, unmatched within that realm]."

"But if you wish to ascend to the Cosmos [the highest realm of existence, a complete universe unto itself], it will be harder than scaling the heavens, inviting boundless and dreadful tribulations. Such an act is truly destroying your own future prospects."

Speaking to this point, Verdant Sun Imperial Son could not help but take a deep breath, a sneer of derision coloring his expression.

Since ancient times, more than one Flawed Celestial Immortal [an immortal who has sacrificed their inner cosmos to survive a tribulation] who sacrificed their Cosmos has attempted to open a new Cosmos within the Dimensional Void [the chaotic, formless space between realms]. Yet, in the end, they all failed.

Even those awe-inspiring Divine Spirits [beings who have cultivated their divine nature to a profound level] at the sixth level of Heaven Immortal [a high rank of celestial immortal] would merely be seeking their own doom by trying to forge a Cosmos within the Dimensional Void.
