872: 671 Immortal Slaying Sword Formation_2 872: 671 Immortal Slaying Sword Formation_2 Yet, the Spirit Coffin Palace Lamp showed no reaction to this beast leather scroll.
“Bring it here,”
Jiang Chen knew that all the answers lay on the leather scroll, He stretched out his hand, and a myriad of dark lights swept through, transforming into a black handprint and reached for the beast leather scroll deep in the continent.
Roar roar roar…
Sensing danger, the demonic light on the leather scroll suddenly flashed rapidly, a great amount of demonic energy rose, forming terrifying demon shadows that rushed towards the enormous hand that Jiang Chen had sent forward.
Unfortunately, the leather scroll was but an inanimate object, with limited strength.
How could it be Jiang Chen’s match?
With a gentle shake of the giant hand, all the black shadows burst in an instant, disappearing like smoke banished by the wind.
Boom…
Suddenly, the leather scroll unfurled violently, sword qi that pierced the sky erupted, turning into blood-red sword lights sweeping across, emanating an aura of annihilating all beings.
At the sa ti, the phantom of an ancient doorway appeared, exuding an aura that suppressed the heavens.
Within this doorway, the phantom of an Innate Dao platform flickered vaguely into view.
Atop this Dao platform, there stood an ancient lamp with a gentle blue fla flickering, sowhat similar to the Spirit Coffin Palace Lamp in Jiang Chen’s hand.
“Is this the Immortal Slaying Formation?”
The array before his eyes seed familiar to Jiang Chen.
It had many similarities to the Immortal Slaying Formation recorded in the Shangqing legacy, but it also had many variations.
Like the Innate doorway, Innate Dao platform, and Innate divine lamp, these were all not part of the original Immortal Slaying Formation.
“This doorway, why does it look so familiar?
It seems like Heaven’s Gate in Heaven Court,”
Jiang Chen scrutinized the ethereal doorway for a while, and the more he looked, the more familiar it seed, discovering it was extrely similar to the Heaven’s Gate in Heaven Court.
“Strange, there’s sothing peculiar about this array,”
With a thought, Jiang Chen suddenly released his grip, allowing the beast leather scroll in his hand to fly out and rge with the scroll before his eyes.
Jiang Chen had realized that the leather scroll before him was incomplete, missing a crucial part, naly the fragnt he held in his hand that recorded the Immortal Extinction Sword.
Normally, on the gate of the Immortal Slaying Formation, the Immortal Extinction Sword should be hanging, not empty.
Swish…
The two leather scrolls rged in mid-air, forming a whole.
Suddenly, blood-colored sword lights erupted throughout the sky, coalescing into a blood-colored long sword suspended above the Dao gate in the void.
Rumble rumble!
The previously flawed Immortal Extinction Formation now suddenly beca complete, and powerful fluctuations spread out, surging in all directions, destroying everything in the vicinity.
“Immortal Extinction Formation!”
“No, this is the Immortal Slaying Formation—not the Immortal Slaying Formation in the hands of my master, but the Immortal Slaying Formation wielded by the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, and it is the most complete version of it,”
At this mont, Jiang Chen suddenly realized that he might have uncovered a terrifying truth.
It was about the partial truth of the battle between Dao and demons in the age of chaos.
The Immortal Slaying Formation passed down to the Upper Qing Saints by the Taoist Ancestors Hongjun might not be the original version, but a redacted version, nowhere near as powerful as before.
At this mont, Jiang Chen thought of many things.
Like why the Immortal Slaying Formation in the hands of the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou seed so powerful, able to resist the four masters and even counter-kill two of them.
But in the hands of Leader Tongtian, the Immortal Slaying Formation appeared so fragile, easily broken by the four sages.
Not only did he fail to injure them, but the formation was also effortlessly shattered.
Initially, Jiang Chen thought it was because the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou was too powerful, or the four sages were too formidable.
But now it seed that was not the case at all; the Immortal Slaying Formations laid out by both sides were entirely different, not even the sa formation.
Is Demon Ancestor Luo Hou formidable?
Does that an Leader Tongtian is not formidable?
The Four Saints are formidable, but does that an the four ancient ancestors who besieged Demon Ancestor Luo Hou were not formidable?
Hongjun, needless to say, is currently the foremost person in the Chaos World.
Back then, he wielded the Innate Treasure, the Pangu Banner, and entered the Immortal Slaying Formation set by Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.
Ancestor Yang i is said to be the reincarnation of a Space Devil, with absurdly strong power, even surpassing Honjan Daizu, and who also wielded an Innate Treasure to enter the Immortal Slaying Formation.
Ancestor of Heaven and Earth was on par with Honjan Daizu, his strength not weaker than his, entering the formation with the Innate Treasure, the Heaven and Earth Cauldron.
Ancestor of Yin and Yang, likewise a peer of Honjan Daizu and with equal strength, wielded the Innate Treasure Tai Chi Diagram to enter the formation.
The four great masters, each holding an Innate Treasure, went to break the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, and it took the cost of two dead and two injured to finally break the formation.
This showed the strength of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
The fa of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was forged in this battle, becoming the strongest formation in the Chaos World at a leap.
Not until the appearance of the God-killing Array and the Star Array did the word “one of” have to be added behind the title of strongest formation for the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
“No wonder the performance of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation in Ancient Tis was completely different from that in the Wilderness Period, with huge differences—so it turns out that the structure of the formation had changed, missing much of its mysteries, and its power greatly reduced from its forr glory.”
“It is not because the main controller of the formation has changed, but the core of the formation itself has changed.”
Gazing at the Immortal Extinction Sword Formation before him, Jiang Chen had many realizations in his heart.
Honjan Daizu had certainly held back, and the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation he passed to Leader Tongtian was flawed.
The saying that the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation cannot be broken by anyone but the Four Saints should be true.
However, what the Taoist ancestor referred to might not be the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation given to Leader Tongtian, but rather the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation in the hands of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.
Otherwise, with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation at his disposal, Leader Tongtian would not claim to be invincible among the Six Saints, but at least he could stay in an undefeated position.
It wouldn’t be like during the Investiture of the Gods period when the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation had just been laid out, and the Four Saints easily broke it.
The so-called three great formations of the Prehistoric World were just like a joke, broken without even harming a saint’s hair, causing Leader Tongtian to lose a lot of face.
“My master at that ti must have also realized sothing was wrong with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, nowhere near as powerful as the Taoist ancestor had said, thus he directly abandoned them and turned to layout the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals, intending to use the Six Soul Banner against the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and others.”
On reflection, Leader Tongtian, being a saint and having mastered the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation for many years, couldn’t possibly have failed to spot its problems; hence, he painstakingly researched the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals, preparing to create a supre formation that would surpass the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
“After the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was broken, my master preferred to let the four swords scatter rather than reclaim them, probably because he disdained this incomplete formation.”
“However, what my master disdains, I take seriously.
Moreover, now that I have received the inheritance of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, there might be a day in the future when I can reassemble the complete Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
This formation could beco one of my trump cards.”
With these thoughts, Jiang Chen suddenly stretched out his hand again and reached for the beast skin scroll in the air.
The Immortal Extinction Sword Formation was strong, but after all, it was just a shadow, lacking the key main object of the formation, and its power was not close to its peak.
Naturally, it could not stop Jiang Chen.
With just a light pinch, he turned the Immortal Extinction Sword Formation in the void into fragnts and held the beast skin scroll in his hand.
“Destroy!”
With just a light squeeze of his hand, Jiang Chen extinguished the demonic energy on the beast skin scroll, calming it down.
“As expected, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation passed down by the Taoist ancestor is flawed.” Unfolding the beast skin scroll, Jiang Chen studied it carefully and confird his guess.
The complete Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, with the Immortal Slaying Swords and Array Map, is only part of it, besides which it has many mysteries.
For example, within the great formation, there are also four Innate Dao Platforms, representing the Innate Four Symbols, which stabilize the formation with the power of the Four Symbols, making it more solid and impervious to external forces.
Above the Dao Platforms, there are also four Innate Spirit Lamps, representing the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and the way of Yin and Yang.
In this way, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation embodies the power of Yin and Yang, Three Talents, and Four Symbols.
Interwoven together, it spawns countless variations, almost encompassing everything, naturally unmatched.
“If the Immortal Slaying Swords are only the main body of the complete sword formation, then Yin and Yang, the Three Talents, and the Four Symbols are the frawork of the complete sword formation, responsible for supporting the main body.”
“Without the support of the frawork, the main body is unstable and naturally cannot exert its full power, easily being broken by others.”
