Chapter 1637(2) - Ten Minutes
“Senior Brother, you have advanced again.” Tyrant hastily greeted Grandmaster Haoran.
“Junior Brother, you are truly a shameless one. How dare you reach the same realm as I do! It’s going to be difficult for me to bully you for fun again.”
Grandmaster Haoran sighed and spoke regretfully, but anyone could hear the delight in his tone. He was pleased that his junior brother had progressed so rapidly.
“And me, Yang Lang as well.”
Someone leaped out from the crowd and flew towards Jiang Chen’s encampment. This man’s qi was incomparably powerful. He was the strongest genius of Great Qian Empire and was only an intermediate Immortal Emperor back when they entered the Golden Horizon. Currently, he was already a late Immortal Emperor. His progress didn’t surprise Jiang Chen and Yang Bufan in the slightest. After all, it was his second time joining the expedition in the Golden Horizon. Given his talent, if he still couldn’t advance to late Immortal Emperor realm, it would make him somewhat inferior to others.
“Many thanks, Senior Brother Yang Lang.” Jiang Chen spoke. Yang Bufan looked over with a smile.
“Humph! Don’t think that they can bully the people of Great Qian Empire so easily! How can Yang Lang be excluded from such a battle?”
Yang Lang harrumphed coldly. His qi fluctuated. His presence made Jiang Chen’s group even stronger. There were two late Immortal Emperors in their group, Yang Lang and Lan Lingji. Jiang Chen, Big Yellow, Tyrant and Grandmaster Hao Ran could also fight late Immortal Emperor opponents, especially Big Yellow whose body had been refining and absorbing the Great Earth Immortal Milk incessantly. Of course, it wouldn’t be an easy thing to advance to late Immortal Emperor within a dozen minutes. After all, breaking through to the next level was far more difficult than it sounded.
Their encampment indeed became a lot stronger, but it didn’t seem sufficient to deal with the current situation.
“Big Yellow, go and deploy the Five Elemental Grand Formation and then defend the formation with the others. We will go all out with them while keeping our defense up. We only have to hold it for ten minutes.”
Jiang Chen spoke aloud. He was a very farsighted and calm person. The more critical the situation, the calmer he became. He wasn’t being arrogant. He had been scaling the difference in strength between them and the enemies. The current battle was absolutely not the same as the unscrupulous killing they had had in the past. The top priority now was to protect Wu Ningzhu, ensuring that no accident could happen to her. As long as she stepped onto the fiery stairs, everything would go well after that. The fiery stairway would protect her. Anyone who attempted to act against her would be killed instantly.
Therefore, they only had to persist for ten minutes, and Jiang Chen had chosen the defensive strategy.
“Roger.”
Big Yellow immediately began deploying the formation without hesitation. It was effortless for him to deploy the Five Elemental Grand Formation. His body consisted of a shapeless soul that could combine with Jiang Chen’s Five Elemental Domain and form the Five Elemental Grand Formation in an instant. This formation was similar to the Five Elemental Tisura Formation used to defend against the army of Nanbei Chao’s clone back in Saint Origin World.
*Buzz…* *Buzz…*
An enormous formation was completed. A layer of five-coloured pale light enveloped everyone. Wu Ningzhu was at the centre of it. It covered the range near the fiery stairs which allowed Wu Ningzhu to reach her destination safely; as long as the grand formation didn’t break.
“Now!”
One of them shouted. More than a hundred people lunged at them simultaneously. Most of them were from major powers that had grudges with Jiang Chen. Amongst them were two late Immortal Emperors. The energy they unleashed was horrifying.
*Hong Long……*
The energy waves drowned the Five Elemental Grand Formation instantly like a tsunami.
The grand formation shook violently, seemingly about to break at any second. Lines of cracks began appearing on its surface. The energy was truly overpowering.
“Let’s break their formation together! If so many of us can’t break even a formation, it will be extremely humiliating. As long as we kill that woman, the Xiao Yao Qin will select another descendant. At that time, all of us will have a chance,” someone shouted, his eyes reddened.
*Hua La……*
In just a matter of a few blinks, another hundred men joined the battle, lunging at Jiang Chen and his comrades from all directions. Jiang Chen’s group seemed too insignificant compared to such a huge force.
“Tyrant, the God Trembling Monument!”
Seeing their current situation, Jiang Chen hastily roared at Tyrant. At this moment, there was only Tyrant’s monument that could help stabilize the grand formation.
“Yes.”
Tyrant wasted no time, and immediately summoned the God Trembling Monument, an enormous piece of blood-red monument that emitted ancient qi emerged. People trembled involuntarily, they felt the invisible pressure coming from the monument. After its appearance and under Tyrant’s control, it fused together with the Five Elemental Grand Formation. Almost instantly, the grand formation stabilized.
This battle was bound to last for ten minutes. Jiang Chen and the others would have to do all they could to hold the formation.
On the other side, Dragon Shsian and Nanbei Chao had started a great battle amongst themselves. These two enemies were determined to destroy each other. Nanbei Chao had been wanting to kill Dragon Shisan, so he would never show any quarters. As for Dragon Shisan, he knew that he had met a powerful opponent, so he had kept his iron staff and performed the formidable Battle Saint Technique.
