Chapter 1714 : Yin Yang Star Seal Heaven Formation

10 Emperor-level figures charged in, brandishing an aura to annihilate all, intent on sweeping humanity from the realm.

Within the formation, the faces of the human cultivators changed drastically, yet they still unleashed their full power to meet the assault.

For a moment, the Crown Prince of the Great Void, Lyra (Person Name), Chen Qiyuan, Kael (Person Name), Seraphina Qu (Person Name), the Azure Princess, the Sword Master of the Longevity Star, and the Crown Prince of Pure Yang all advanced together.

However, 8 against 14—with 6 fewer Forbidden Ones and 2 fewer protagonists at the Dao Tribulation level—made it seem from the very start that this battle held no suspense.

"This battle shall see us eradicate the human race, laying the very foundation to conquer all realms of immortality in 1 decisive campaign."

Golden Crow Emperor Sun murmured in his heart, gripping the Solar Divine Spear as he soared into the sky. He resembled a young Celestial Emperor of the Sun emerging across the heavens, poised to suppress the formidable foes across the 9 Heavens.

In that very instant, the heavens and earth trembled violently as anomalies surged through the entire 20-4 Heavens Grand Formation.

Between heaven and earth, 6 dazzlingly extraordinary pearls resonated with the 20-4 innate treasures, their interweaving motions giving birth to a newfound formation.

6 Rhenium Odd Pearl!

The Solar Golden Crow spoke, his face filled with utter shock. "This is bad—we’ve fallen into a trap."

No sooner had his words faded than he noticed 20-2 of the 20-4 Innate Treasures aligning with the 6 Ren Divination Pearls, forming the grand 20-8 Lunar Mansions Array.

The remaining 2 mid-grade Primordial Treasures, the Imperial Heaven-Sealing Mirror and the Void Divinity-Sealing Mirror, resided at the Celestial Axis. 1 claimed the Lunar Position, the other the Solar Position, together forming the grand Yin-Yang Heaven-Sealing Array.

The formation realigned in the blink of an eye, before anyone could even process what was happening.

Sun Qian slowly stepped forward, his gaze calm as he regarded the prodigies and mighty figures of the demon and god races. With serene composure, he began to speak.

"Esteemed colleagues, this 'Yin-Yang Star-Seal Heaven Barrier Array(Formation)', ranks as the third greatest confinement formation within our sacred Martial Sage grounds."

"With this formation severing your retreat, it shall serve as your burial ground—a fitting end to honor your renowned prowess."

"You..."

All the gods and demons present instantly paled. This Yin-Yang Constellation Sealing Heaven Formation was among the 3 1000 immortal realms' most supreme arrays. Had that quasi-sage from the Military School personally deployed it, it could have even trapped and slain quasi-sage powerhouses.

The formation before them was secretly laid by Eldrin (Person Name) and Sun Qian through joint efforts. Though the treasures used were of ordinary power, they were more than sufficient to trap even a Great Perfection Heavenly Immortal.

These protagonists of the heavenly tribulation possessed extraordinary origins, each wielding life-saving treasures bestowed by ancient immortal mighty ones. Even late-stage Celestial Immortals would find it exceedingly difficult to restrain them.

But at this moment, they discovered that their own methods had failed, insufficient to break through this formation and escape with their lives.

"What a grand Eternal Sun Clan, what an authentic legacy of the Art of War! You humans are truly treacherous beyond measure."

The Azure Sun Imperial Scion let out a furious laugh, his face—usually an unreadable mask of composure—now flushed with unprecedented humiliation and rage.

Sun Qian had been introduced by him, yet now he was being schemed against by Sun Qian—this was utterly intolerable.

Witnessing this, the 5-Colored Immortal Phoenix immediately declared, "Though the Yin-Yang Astral Sealing Grand Array possesses formidable sealing power, it holds no lethal capabilities. As long as we eliminate them, we will surely break free from this formation."

Hearing this, the Azure Sun Imperial Heir immediately spoke.

Sun Qian (Person Name)!

"You deserve to die!"

With a furious roar, the Eldrin scion brandished the Solar Spear, its blazing divine might sweeping forth as he sought to crush Sun Qian where he stood.

To everyone's surprise, Sun Qian had actually been concealing his combat prowess all along. His strength had long since stepped into the realm of the Eleventh Heavenly Tribulation. Even when facing the enraged Crown Prince of Qingyang, he managed to hold his ground without falling at a disadvantage after exchanging over 10 consecutive moves.

"Direct descendant of the Sun Clan of Eternal Life, true inheritor of the Military Sage's sacred ground."

"This Sun Qian is truly worthy of being the successor favored by 2 Great Luo Dao lineages."

High above in the firmament, Luo Ming of the Celestial Net Ancient Sect could not help but sigh at the sight before him.

Feng Wuji from the Stormcloud Dao Palace also nodded, his expression turning incomparably solemn as he said, "To give the world the impression of an arrogant man at odds with Fellow Daoist Guixu, he was even willing to endure the ultimate humiliation of having someone step on his face."

"Such forbearance and temperament alone are truly unprecedented."

"Today, the disciples of the demon and god clans were outmaneuvered, and truth be told, their defeat was hardly unjust."

"Bzzz—"

At the very moment the great war erupted, a streak of light abruptly bloomed across the heavens.

But then, a Chaos Heaven-Splitting Halberd tore through the void, piercing the fabric of reality with overwhelming force and impaling the body of the Bifang Imperial Son on the spot.

"Ah—"

Suddenly ambushed, the Bifang Imperial Scion had no time to react.

His physical body was instantly torn apart, and only his primordial spirit managed to escape, desperately attempting to flee into the distance.

Yet at that very instant, a colossal hand that blotted out the heavens descended with overwhelming force, instantly suppressing the Eldrin.

Boom—

In that instant, the Eldrin Imperial Son underwent a magnificent transformation into the Dao, bursting forth with endless streams of resplendent immortal light. The boundless radiance erupted like a celestial downpour, blossoming across the heavens and earth like the most dazzling display of fireworks.

At this moment, everyone present was utterly astonished, their faces painted with expressions of profound disbelief.

This Eldrin Imperial Son was a peerless prodigy in the forbidden realm, the most dazzling genius the Eldrin clan had produced in 1 100 million years. His combat prowess rivaled that of an early-stage Celestial Immortal, and even within that realm he could not be considered weak.

Yet such a figure was suppressed and slain within 2 moves. Even accounting for the element of surprise, this outcome far exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Bzzz—"

In that very instant, heaven and earth trembled with a resonant hum.

But then Eldrin strode through the void, seizing the Chaos Heavenly Halberd and that forbidden Dao Source in 1 swift motion before turning his gaze toward the Golden Crow Imperial Son and the Azure Sun Imperial Son.

With a resonant hum, he raised the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Halberd and pointed it at the 2 of them. "Both of you," he declared, "come at me together."

To his surprise, far from refusing, the 2 of them wore expressions of extreme gravity.

The Solar Golden Crow spoke with utmost gravity, "Your power has surged dramatically. Have you attained the Flawless Dao Fruit?"

"Never."

Eldrin shook his head and spoke calmly, "But it should be more than enough to deal with you."

"Innate Dao Principles?"

In that instant, Prince Qingyang sensed the innate Dao principles emanating from the Chaos Heaven Halberd, his brow faintly furrowing.

He took a deep breath before speaking, "No wonder you dared to let us in. However, cultivating both the Primordial True Body and Primordial Dao Laws simultaneously—I'm afraid your cultivation path ends here."

"Your current realm is virtually indistinguishable from that of a Flawed Celestial, making you a true Celestial powerhouse."

"But if you seek to ascend to the cosmos, it would be harder than climbing to heaven, inviting boundless and dreadful tribulations. Such an act is truly destroying your own future."

At these words, the Eldrin (Person Name) couldn't help but take a deep breath, a faint sneer playing across his expression.

Since time immemorial, more than 1 flawed Celestial Immortal who sacrificed entire cosmos had attempted to carve out new universes within the dimensional void, yet ultimately, all met with failure.

Even those heaven-defying deities at the Sixth Heavenly Immortal Realm would merely be courting death should they attempt to carve out a universe within the dimensional void.
