Chapter 953: Ninth Rank Profound Meaning
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Buzzing!”
Lu Li went into the Wicked Bead and so did others. Then, he flew the Wicked Bead out in a straight line. He did not control the Wicked Bead much, just letting it run its own course.
Lu Li thought that they could not leave the place because this formation had affected and misguided their souls. They were going in circles involuntarily. The Dragon Demon was not intelligent. Even so, it was affected given that the Dragon Demon did have a soul.
The Wicked Bead was an item with no soul. It was a Relic. Lu Li thought the Wicked Bead would be free from the influence.
Turned out, it was still his wishful thinking. The Wicked Bead flew for the time for half an incense stick to burn. Lu Li checked with psychic power, only to find that the Wicked Bead was going around in circles.
“How is that possible?”
Lu Li went out with Ke Mang and Patriarch of Law Enforcement. Gazing into the same old mountains in the distance, Lu Li was downhearted. Not even the Wicked Bead could bring them out. Leaving now was a daunting task.
“It is possible!”
Ke Mang sighed. He seemed to have realized what the matter was. Staring at the sky, he said, “This formation is not affecting people’s souls. Instead… it has been controlling the space around here in an invisible way. Before we can become aware of it, space has been shifted. That is why we have been going around here.”
Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement looked at each other, convinced by Ke Mang’s speculation. If space was shifting on itself without a trace, it would make people stay in circles unconsciously.
“Let me try again!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement leaped forth. He took out a dark iron rod and poured some Xuan Energy. That iron rod grew longer and bigger. Every time he wielded it, Xuan Qi in heaven and earth would gather around.
“Ninth rank Profound Meaning?”
Any warrior that aspired to reach the Semi-God Realm must study a ninth rank Profound Meaning. Patriarch of Law Enforcement must be ready to use his, to see if he could crack the formation.
“What!”
As Patriarch of Law Enforcement waved the iron rod, it was getting darker around them in a speed visible to the naked eye. It was different from the nightfall. Even at pitch dark nights, strong as Lu Li and the others were, they could tell the views around them.
But Lu Li could see nothing clearly; absolutely nothing as if his own soul was locked in a pitch dark concealed space.
“Profound Meaning of darkness!”
Lu Li felt appalled. He had never seen Patriarch of Law Enforcement using the ninth rank Profound Meaning, and it was shocking. If Patriarch of Law Enforcement were to fight him at the moment, Lu Li might lose his life before he knew it. The only option was to get into the Wicked Bead.
“Really…”
Ke Mang was frightened at the thought of Patriarch of Law Enforcement using the Profound meaning, even if he trembled, he eventually calmed down and felt thankful because he was on their side.
“Swish, swish~”
All of a sudden, the world shook around them, coming along was a surge of energy that could destroy heaven and earth. Lu Li realized that it was getting brighter abruptly as if all the dark elements had been sucked out to converge into something terrifying.
The dark elements were indeed sucked out!
In Patriarch of Law Enforcement’s hand, that iron rod with a length of one thousand feet was covered with black airstream. The iron rod was enlarged by many times all of a sudden. Swinging the huge iron rod, Patriarch of Law Enforcement smashed it down.
“Crack~”
The space around them was trembling as the crack reached dozens of feet. Airstream spread to both sides. It felt like the rod had hidden a pond of peaceful water and waves were surging on both sides…
“That is horrifying!”
Lu Li witnessed some ninth rank Profound Meaning. When many Semi-God Realm warriors were chasing him, they used ninth rank Profound Meaning to strike the Wicked Bead.
However, since he was in the Wicked Bead, he did not feel it so clearly. At the moment, he felt his mind blown and his blood was tumbling.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
Space cracked but restored quickly. The impact of Patriarch of Law Enforcement’s move was being averted quickly.
Lu Li took a look. Sighing, he said, “This is a formation that can affect the space which I think is frozen. Great-grandpa, your move cannot crack it. Force… is not effective in this formation!”
“Whoosh~”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement flew back. He shook his head. “Space out there is confined. I cannot spread the strength out. This is a headache.”
“Let me try!”
Ke Mang said while clenching his teeth together, “Let me see if I can bring the formation down by another formation. If I cannot, then I don’t know what to do for the time being.”
“Okay!”
Lu Li’s eyes glowed. Last time—in the Valley of Feather, Ke Mang once tried this method. Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement stepped to the side. Ke Mang took out some formation stones and started working. He spent a long time and used many formation stones. After an hour, he finally took a deep breath and said, “Activate!”
He poured out Xuan Energy. From the ground around them—emitted a thick white fog. This was the same formation that Ke Mang used at the Valley of Feather, which was an ancient formation he had learned.
“Swish, swish~”
The white fog was becoming thicker and thicker. Eventually, several white dragons whooshed up. Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement held their breaths as they watched the white dragons. If they could pierce through the space, then the natural formation could be cracked.
Five hundred feet, one thousand feet!
The eight white dragons hovered up to the sky. However, as they reached the height of one thousand feet, they slowed down. It appeared something invisible was trying to stop them from going through.
“Plop!”
A glow rose in Ke Mang’s eyes. Blood oozed out from his mouth. Once again, he let out some Xuan Energy. The eight white dragons moved faster upward and soon reached the height of one-third of a mile.
But.
At that height, the white dragons were slowed down again. Ke Mang’s face was pale and he was shaking. Once again, he made a determined effort and spat out some more blood. The white dragons gained speed.
Lu Li and Patriarch of Law Enforcement kept their eyes wide open while staring at the white dragons, praying for miracles. The white dragons climbed up by another eight hundred feet. Blood spilled out from Ke Mang’s mouth. He fell to the ground and passed out.
“Bang, bang, bang, bang~”
The eight white dragons all exploded and vanished. Lu Li went to Ke Mang to check; relieved to see that Ke Mang was fine and had only consumed too much energy.
“I don’t think we can leave any time soon.”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement looked at Ke Mang and said to Lu Li with a bitter smile. Lu Li fetched Ke Mang with some healing potions and put him into the inner hall of the Wicked Bead. Then, Lu Li stood up, then sighed as he replied, “There are no other options. We have to go into the Wicked Bead and wait for the enemies!”
“Great-grandpa, do not worry too much!”
Lu Li looked at the Wicked Bead and continued with confidence. “This bead of mine is a Relic, dozens of Semi-God Realm warriors tried to break it but failed. The paleo-beasts have few powerful ones, and they will not be able to break my bead at any time soon. When they show up and the battle starts, we may have a chance to leave this place.”
The paleo-beasts might close this formation in order to kill Lu Li. By that time, he could fly away in the Wicked Bead. When they were out of the conundrum, it was possible that they could defeat the paleo-beasts’ powerful warriors.
