Chapter 414: The Great Million-Strong Cultivator Army Enters The Formation, It Is Not Set In Stone

“The audacity of this guy! The sheer audacity!”

The Craggy Ocean Tower Lord was seething with so much enraged that his face turned red.

The other Sage Rulers’ expressions were not that pleasant as well.

The reputation of the great million-strong army was dragged into the mud even more!

“Chu Kuangren! You better stop that prideful act. Do you think you can sit back and relax just because of this formation? In your dreams!”

“We have already seen through the inner workings of your formation. The day we break through that formation will be the day that your Black Heaven Sect shall fall. The time of your death has arrived!”

The Graylord Sage finally yelled. He could not hold it in anymore.

Even though Chu Kuangren was far away, he could seemingly hear him from.

“Oh my, I think someone is making an outcry.”

“That’s fine too. If you truly insist on dying so quickly, then I won’t stop you. But I’ll say what I said before. A rag-tag bunch of garbage, pieces of crap like you guys can destroy my Black Heaven Sect… In your dreams!!”

“Bring it on. Let’s see who will be wiped out then!!”

After that, Chu Kuangren turned around and was just about to leave. However, as if he recalled something, he turned around again and said, “Oh, I almost forgot. Master Daoist Yun Tao, thanks a lot for sponsoring so many Epic-tier Celestial chalcedonies. I’ve been finding them quite useful recently.”

Then, the light display screen shattered.

It was obvious that the Vision Transmitting Rock was destroyed.

However, his last sentence confused everyone.

‘Thanks to Master Daoist Yun Tao?’

‘What does he mean?’

“Master Daoist Yun Tao. I think he’s the Sect Leader of Ethereal Rapture.”

“Why did Chu Kuangren thank him?”

Inside the Fairy boat, the other five Sage Rulers immediately glared at Master Daoist Yun Tao.

“Brother Yun Tao, what does Chu Kuangren mean?”

“Did you have any dealings with him?”

“Ethereal Rapture’s chalcedony is a top-quality formation material. Is it possible that Chu Kuangren’s formation is made from chalcedony?”

The moment those words came out, the Sage Rulers looked like they were going to eat someone alive. This was especially true for Sage Ruler Zhang Guang.

Master Daoist Yun Tao snorted coldly and replied, “What other dealings can I possibly have with Chu Kuangren? When he came to visit me in the Ethereal Rapture to ask for chalcedonies…”

He then told everyone about how he traded chalcedony with Chu Kuangren.

Every time he recalled that incident, his heart ached.

Even Ethereal Rapture could not accumulate that amount of Celestial cores and Exquisite-tier chalcedonies if they mined for tens of thousands of years!

All of that was taken away by Chu Kuangren just like that!

Besides, he only received a billion soulstones in exchange, which was almost as if he had given the chalcedonies away for free!

Now that he thought about it, the formation blocking them from moving forward could have been set up with the chalcedonies that their opponent purchased from his Ethereal Rapture. At this realization, Master Daoist Yin Tao was so angry that he felt nauseous and his eyes turned grim.

“Hmph, it better be.” When Sage Ruler Zhang Guang noticed that Master Daoist Yun Tao was not lying, he snorted and said nothing more.

“That is the truth.”

Master Daoist Yun Tao was extremely dissatisfied with everyone’s doubts about him. He now hated Chu Kuangren with a passion. How could he possibly help him after that?

‘These bunch of idiots. Are their heads only for them to put on hats?’

“Order everyone to enter the formation!”

Sage Ruler Zhang Guang commanded.

Everyone was slightly taken aback at the order.

“Isn’t this decision a bit risky?”

“Hmph. Since Purplevoid has already helped us gain intel on the formation’s structure and layout, we just need to be more cautious when we’re inside. As for taking this risk, isn’t the plan to use this army of people as fodder? Why care so much for them?”

Sage Ruler Zhang Guang replied coldly.

The other Sage Rulers pondered a while and nodded.

With that, the Sage Ruler’s order was spread throughout the army.

Upon receiving that order, the expressions of the Graylord Sage, Celestial Sage, Solar and Lunar Sages turned slightly grim.

“It seems the Sage Rulers have decided to use us as cannon fodder.”

“D*mn it. These are all our men, whereas they have not lost anyone from their party aside from Purplevoid Sage.”

The Solar and Lunar Sages uttered with dissatisfaction.

“I wouldn’t have come if I knew things would turn out like this.”

The Celestial Sage gritted his teeth. He was starting to regret his decision.

Compared to the other forces that held grudges with Chu Kuangren, like the Sky Emperor Palace, Overlord Sage Tribe, and the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands, his Eight Wind Palace merely lost a few soulstones to Chu Kuangren.

He could have minded his own business and not join them in the first place.

However, he joined in the end in hopes to build relations with the unknown lands.

He initially thought that they would barge in and destroy the Black Heaven Sect without Eight Wind Palace suffering any casualties. Hence, he did not expect things to turn out this way.

“Since the situation has developed to this point, we have no way out!”

Graylord Sage said in a deep tone.

From the moment he agreed to join in the action, there was no turning back.

Did he think he could come and go as he pleased?

Would the unknown lands allow him to mess with them like that?

Graylord Sage believed that those Sage Rulers would immediately whack him to death if he were to leave right then.

“A fired arrow can never return to its quiver. Let’s continue ahead.”

Graylord Sage said.

The other Sages gritted their teeth and followed suit reluctantly.

One by one, the Fairy boats soon entered the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation. The onlooking cultivators outside were so excited to see what would happen that they attempted to peek inside with their spiritual thoughts.

Alas, it was no use.

Yet despite this, none of them wished to leave as well. This battle was just too intense and exciting for them to miss out on how it would end.

…

Inside the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.

The battalion of Fairy boats entered.

Since the Purplevoid Sage had cleared a path for them earlier, everyone now understood the inner workings and the layout of the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, except for the Cloud Dragon in the air. As long as they were cautious, they could avoid it.

At least, that was what everyone intended to do.

“Just leave the Cloud Dragon in the air to us. The rest of you continue to head towards the Black Heaven Sect,” Sage Ruler Zhang Guang ordered as he said to Graylord Sage.

Graylord Sage was relieved to hear that. Although the Sage Rulers intended to use them as cannon fodder, they would not send them to their deaths so easily.

He made a few guesses after some careful thought.

Besides, they could not defeat the Cloud Dragon anyway, so it was not worth it to have them fight it. They would only die meaningless deaths.

Rather than ordering them to deal with Chu Kuangren, why not have them deal with Chu Kuangren so that they could test his strength to see if he had any more tricks up his sleeve?

No matter what, they were still cannon fodder.

They were cannon fodder that was used to deal with those that mattered.

“Everyone, be careful. Although this formation is powerful, we’ll be fine as long as we avoid those dangerous areas…”

Before Graylord Sage could finish his sentence, a flaming meteor shot through the sky and headed towards their Fairy boats. Some of the Fairy boats could not activate their defensive barrier in time, and they were smashed, burning the cultivators onboard to ashes.

That sudden occurrence caught everyone by surprise.

“How is this possible!”

“D*mn it. There were none of these traps when the Purplevoid Sage passed by earlier. Where did it come from?”

“Don’t panic. Activate your formation techniques!”

…

Inside the Longevity Hall.

A Celestial chalcedony tablet was placed before Chu Kuangren.

On the tablet, multiple dots of light in multiple areas lit up and dimmed at random. Every single dot of light represented a different formation technique within the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.

The Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation was a mega formation.

It was also a Great Composite Formation that was composed of countless formation techniques!

More importantly, these formation techniques could be combined and changed at will, and it had no fixed location.

“The Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation is really unpredictable. If everything is set in stone, then how can it be named as such?”

Chu Kuangren touched his chin and chuckled.

With a wave of his hand, a light display screen appeared on the tablet. On it displayed Graylord Sage and others dealing with the formation techniques in dire straits.
