Chapter 255
Chapter 255 – Opening
The faces of everyone from the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness turned cold. The Black Formation was their final weapon, and it was prepared to be used at the final moment of the war. But now, Daoist Black had just instructed them to activate it at the beginning of the war. This told them how critical the situation was. The fighting hadn’t even begun yet, how were they going to win?
Granny Feng had a solemn expression as well. She knew why Daoist Black wanted to activate the Black Formation; Nanbei Chao was too strong! It could easily be seen how strong he was from how he knocked Daoist Black away just now. Perhaps even with the combined strength of her and Daoist Black, they will wouldn’t be a match for this abnormal monster. Furthermore, Zhao Chongyang and Duan Jianhong, two powerful warriors would join the fight as well. There was simply no way they could win this war. If war really erupted, it would end just like Nanbei Chao had described it would. Rivers of blood would flow through the land, and they would suffer devastating losses.
Therefore, Daoist Black decided to activate the Black Formation in order to defend themselves. It could help reduce the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness’s losses, and they could also use it to fight back against Nanbei Chao.
Right after Daoist Black finished speaking, all the men began working. All Divine Core warriors from the Black Sect and Valley of Happiness changed their positions, and stood in prearranged spots. After that, they took out golden talismans and held it in their hands.
All of them injected their Yuan energy into the talisman, causing them to instantly shatter. The shattered talismans transformed into golden beams, then they shot up into the sky. These golden beams connected with each other, and waved into a gigantic net. With Daoist Black and Granny Feng as the core, the Black Formation had been activated.
At the same time, all the Heavenly Core disciples hovered underneath the formation. With solemn expressions, the unleashed their Yuan energy and injected it into the formation. With this, the power of the formation would receive a great boost, a tremendous force that combined all the Heavenly Core disciples.
A formation like this was actually quite similar to the Green Sanctuary Sect’s Gargantuan Formation. They were both formations that helped guard the sect, but after being strengthened by Daoist Black and Granny Feng, its power had become even greater.
At the same time, something finally happened back in Inferno Hell.
Bang!
A loud explosive sound could be heard from a hundred miles away. The sound awakened all crowds who had been keeping quiet, and caused them to go wild.
“The doorway to the outside world is going to open up. It’s in that direction. Hurry up; we only have ten minutes.”
Xuan Ye reminded.
“Let’s go.”
A look of excitement could be seen in Jiang Chen’s eyes. His group became the first ones to fly toward the portal. With their cultivation levels, travelling a hundred miles could be done very quickly.
At this moment, a pitch black hole appeared in the skies a hundred miles away. Explosive sounds seemed to come out from the hole without end. The pitch black hole was the doorway to the outside world.
“Let’s go!”
With a leap, Jiang Chen and Big Yellow became the first ones to enter the hole. After that, the rest of the people followed them and jumped into the hole, including Huo Yuner. Huo Yuner wasn’t far away from Jiang Chen, but he didn’t go up to him to talk. In just seven days after he had fought Jiang Chen, Huo Yuner’s wounds had almost fully recovered.
Buzz…
Buzzing sounds could be heard in front of them. After that, bright portals appeared. Each of them shone in different colors, and behind each portal there was a tunnel.
“Brother, all these tunnels lead to the different provinces in the Eastern Continent, you guys go first.”
Wu Jiu said.
Jiang Chen threw his glance at one of the portals with a rather faded color; he could sense the Qi Province’s aura from it. Then, he turned around and cupped his fist toward Wu Jiu and Xuan Ye, “Brother Jiu, Brother Xuan, we’ll meet again some other day.”
After finishing his words, Jiang Chen and his group entered the portal at the same time. Not long after they entered the portal, Huo Yuner also walked into the same portal. He chose not to return to the Green Sanctuary Sect, he instead decided to follow Jiang Chen to the Qi Province.
After that, the rest of the men chose different portals and disappeared from the place. In just a short moment, there were only two men left; Wu Jiu and Xuan Ye.
“Lord Jiu, why wouldn’t you let me invite Brother Jiang to join the Martial Palace? With Brother Jiang’s talent, I’m sure he will become one of the Martial Saint Dynasty’s supporting pills in the future. We should put more effort into cultivating him.”
Finally, Xuan Ye could let out the words he had kept bottled up for a long time. This was something that had confused him.
“He is a true dragon, I don’t want to become his shield; I want him to walk the road to the top by himself. I do believe, even without our invitation, with his extraordinary talent; he will be able to fight his way into the Martial Palace.”
Wu Jiu indifferently said.
“Now I understand, Lord Jiu wishes for Brother Jiang to temper him. But, he has offended too many powers and men this time, so without the Martial Palace’s protection, I’m afraid he is going to have a hard time.”
Xuan Ye was still worried.
“Don’t underestimate him. Let’s go, the time for us to return has come, it’s been ten years.”
Wu Jiu threw his glance at the portal right in the center. It was the portal that led straight to the Martial Saint Dynasty.
