Chapter 412: Purplevoid Enters The Formation, A Dragon Amidst The Sea Of Clouds, Weird Rolling Clouds, Impossible To Defend

Amidst the ever-changing cloud mists, the Sages’ escape path was blocked by a sudden surge of sword qi!

The violent sword qi shot down from the sky!

Despite being as powerful as a Sage, the three of them were unable to resist its energy. In a split second, they were all sliced into pieces by the incoming barrage of sword qi!

That very scene stunned the great army outside.

All of the cultivators gulped with an immense horror in their eyes.

That cloud mists were just too dangerous.

Even Sages died because they let their guard down!

Were the Ten Great Forbidden Areas ever as dangerous as that?!

“What’s going on with this sea of clouds? Why is it so dangerous? It even killed a Sage! It’s too horrifying.”

“How did the Black Heaven Sect achieve this?”

“It’s too scary.”

Besides the millions of cultivators in the great army, the other spectating cultivators outside Black Heaven Sect’s territory were shocked as well.

After all, none of them had witnessed such a formation technique before.

“How did the Black Heaven Sect manage to do this? Isn’t the Black Heaven Sword Formation their only formation? When did this appear?”

“This must be the work of Chu Kuangren.”

“I agree. I don’t think anyone else besides him could come up with something like this. But how did he do it?”

The onlooking cultivators were extremely shocked.

They had presumed that the operation to attack the Black Heaven Sect would progress smoothly, resulting in the sect’s immediate destruction.

However, they had never expected the Black Heaven Sect to possess such a terrifying formation technique. The Black Heaven Sect was unharmed as of now, but on the contrary, the attacking side had lost their Sages and thousands of cultivators.

“D*mn it. D*mn it!”

“What the f*ck is going on with the Black Heaven Sect? How the f*ck could they possibly possess such a formation technique? And why couldn’t the thousands of cultivators move just now?”

“Also, where did that large boulder and that sword qi come from? Is this all there is to the formation technique or is this just the tip of the iceberg?”

Graylord Sage was so frustrated that his expression turned grim.

In the face of that formation technique, he felt extremely helpless.

“Sage Ruler, I’m afraid our strengths alone won’t be enough to break this formation, so please take action!” Graylord Sage said toward the Fairy boat behind him.

“You pieces of garbage!”

Sage Ruler Zhang Guang yelled from that fairy boat.

“Purplevoid, take some men with you to investigate that formation technique. When in danger, use the Shift Talisman to escape,” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang ordered.

“Alright.”

A figure suddenly dashed out from that Fairy boat.

That person was the Heavenly Golden Palace’s Purplevoid Sage, a person who was at the level of a Seven-Step Great Sage and second in strength only to the Sage Ruler of his orthodoxy.

“Check it out. The unknown lands have finally sent someone out.”

“I wonder if he’ll be able to break through the formation.”

“Just him alone? That’s quite a risk.”

“Tsk, to be frank, the unknown lands don’t care whether that person can break the formation or not. Their intention is only for him to go in and investigate more about it first.”

“So that’s how it is…”

The Purplevoid Sage then dashed straight into the cloud mist.

He had initially planned to head for the Black Heaven’s Longevity Hall right away. However, he felt a terrifying pressure weighing upon him from the air the moment he entered the formation.

Within the sea of clouds, a thousand-meter-long dragon, which was made out of the cloud mist, was staring at him.

That terrifying and domineering aura made even a Great Sage like him tremble.

The cultivators outside all gasped as soon as they saw the dragon too. All they could feel were goosebumps all over their bodies.

‘A dragon is hiding among the sea of clouds!’

‘What kind of formation technique is this?!’

The few Sage Rulers inside the Fairy boat could not help but stand up in shock.

A dragon has appeared in the sea of clouds!

Purplevoid Sage was so scared that his face turned pale. No longer wanting to stay in the air, he hurriedly returned to the ground until he could no longer see that dragon. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and said in horror, “That dragon is just too scary! I think I’ll die right away even if it pokes me with one finger.”

He took out his communication compass and reported the situation.

“Sect Leader, there’s a dragon in the skies above this formation technique. Although it does not have a physical form, it might be a part of this formation technique. However, I can sense how terrifying the dragon is. It’s best if we don’t clash with it head-on!”

“Since traveling through the air is not wise, I’ll try to travel by land.”

Purplevoid Sage then continued to walk through the formation.

The Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation was incredibly strange. Since its cloud mist blocked any spiritual thoughts penetrating, Purplevoid Sage could not perceive anything that was more than five kilometers in front of him. Hence, he carefully treaded ahead instead of rushing in recklessly.

He soon arrived at the valley where thousands of cultivators had died.

Suddenly, he felt that it had become incredibly difficult for him to move. Even the crowd outside the formation had noticed this as well.

‘It can’t be. Even a Great Sage is trapped in there?’

“What’s the matter, Purplevoid?” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang asked with a frown.

“There’s a certain force in this valley that’s restricting my movements. This energy seems to be coming from… beneath me. It’s the earth qi!”

“It’s earth qi is binding my feet, making it hard for me to move.”

While he was reporting his situation, a rolling boulder suddenly came from afar.

The unafraid Purplevoid Sage snorted. He then unleashed a surge of mysterious Daoist Rhyme, that was swirling around both his fists, at the incoming boulder.

The two forces collided.

Finally, the boulder shattered!

Purplevoid Sage was left unharmed.

However, a great surge of sword qi suddenly appeared around him and trapped him where he stood. Above him, a gigantic sword shadow had formed out of thin air.

“Hmph, bring it on!”

Purplevoid Sage snorted coldly.

Daoist Rhyme circulated his body, and he unleashed a fist attack.

As soon as the fist energy and sword shadow clashed, it exploded and caused the whole valley to tremble!

However, Purplevoid Sage stood proudly unharmed amidst the dust.

“Well done!”

“Way to go for a Seven-Step Great Sage. His strength is truly remarkable!”

As the army cheered, the other Great Sages like Graylord Sage, and Solar and Lunar Sages felt slightly ashamed.

“Although we’re all Great Sages, the difference in strength between him and us is just too big. After all, we’ve only reached the level of a Great Sage recently.”

“That’s right.”

Meanwhile, inside the formation.

Having just blocked the sword shadow, Purplevoid Sage channeled his spiritual power to destroy the surrounding sword qi and earth qi that was trapping him.

Then, he continued to head deeper into the formation. During this time, everyone in the army saw and learned more about how mysterious and strange this formation was.

The deeper Purplevoid Sage went, the more ambushes he encountered. The attacks included tornado storms, sword qi, scorching flames, raging tides, and many more. They were seemingly endless, and they were impossible to guard against.

No one could predict what dangers would happen next. From terrifying whirlpools in calm waters to poisonous gasses in a seemingly peaceful forest…

Everyone watched in horror as every scene unfolded before them.

“With this tricky sea of clouds and endless ambushes, what the hell is this formation technique? Even the most top-tiered ones that I know of aren’t as terrifying as this.”

Graylord Sage said in a trembling tone.

Even he would end up in certain death if he went in!

He believed that if he were the one leading this great army into the formation, at least half of his men would perish inside!

Inside the formation, Purplevoid Sage could now vaguely make out the Black Heaven Sect mountain entrance.

There was no telling how many dangers he had encountered during this ‘journey’. However, he had managed to overcome all of them with his tremendous strength and hidden techniques.

Nevertheless, he was full of injuries by now.

“Chu Kuangren is still inside the Black Heaven Sect. Purplevoid, retreat for now. You’re no match for him,” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang ordered through the communication compass.

His goal was for the Purplevoid Sage to enter the formation and find out everything about its structure. As of now, that goal had already been achieved.

“Very well.”

Purplevoid Sage nodded and took out the Shift Talisman to leave.

However, his expression changed drastically the moment he crushed that talisman.
