“Wei Chenyu, what are those?” Uncle asked excitedly as he watched the silver strands of energy dancing in the air.
Not only Uncle, but also Second Uncle and Great-Uncle Three were thrilled. Even the usually calm and knowledgeable Killing God Senior and Soul Body showed signs of agitation, their transformed faces displaying expressions of surprise.
“It’s a way to activate the formation. If I were at the Twelfth Level Divine Realm, it wouldn’t be so troublesome. Unfortunately, I’m only at the Third-Level Divine Realm right now. To activate that formation with my own abilities is insufficient; I can only rely on the Formation Array to channel those silver strands and let them activate the formation,” Wei Chen said, looking playfully at Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three.
His playful demeanor stemmed from the abundance of good things stored within his Dantian—Divine Power and Green Energy. He had accumulated so much that once this matter was resolved, he could quickly reach the Sixth Level Divine Realm in a suitable location.
Those benefits were all “gathered” from Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three. Coming to the bottom of Azure Green Pool under Killing God Senior's guidance had truly been a profitable venture.
Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three initially wanted to ask what the silver energy was, but after some thought, they decided against it. Some things are better left unasked; there’s no point in prying into matters that don’t concern you.
That was someone else's secret; asking would only offend them. Everyone has their own trump cards and unique cultivation methods. When it’s not appropriate to inquire, it’s best to restrain your curiosity to earn others' respect.
They speculated among themselves that Wei Chen's silver energy might belong to a type of Stellar Power.
Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three were all strong in their own right and had a keen sense for energies. Although they couldn’t articulate it with such specialized terminology as Stellar Power, they could guess its celestial origins.
“This kid is truly remarkable; at Third-Level Deity strength, he can set up such a powerful formation,” one remarked.
“Actually, his formations aren’t that strong; what’s impressive is his comprehension of formations. I can sense that most of the formations he sets up are of low grade, nothing too advanced. However, in his combinations, the power they can unleash is not to be underestimated.”
“Indeed, his Formation Assignment is unparalleled. The so-called Formation Masters we encountered in Lost City would likely have to learn from him.”
“Exactly! His greatest strength lies in Formation Assignment; those combined formations are ones we’ve never even heard of. Let’s not forget he’s still in the Endless Divine Realm—a Low-Level Spatial Dimension. If he were in our Spatial Plane, he would be even stronger.”
“I’m looking forward to it. Once he grows stronger and Killing God reconstitutes his body, I wonder if Bloodshed Shop will face annihilation.”
“That’s unlikely; Bloodshed Shop is undoubtedly on the decline.”
"Killing God, as long as he returns to his peak state and grows to the Twelfth Level Divine Realm, it will be like having two Killing Gods!"
"As long as he reaches the Twelfth Level Divine Realm, combined with his formations and Killing God's Divine Skill, he will definitely be stronger than Killing God."
"Well, that's about right. After all, they are both prodigies. If we can maintain a good relationship with them, it will be beneficial for us."
"The most important point is that neither of them has any intention of establishing Major Forces. They are used to fighting with their own strength. This means that no matter how strong they become, they won't threaten our position in the Lost City."
"Yes, just wait and see. I'm really looking forward to what these two Fellows will turn Bloodshed Shop into."
Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three were quietly communicating when suddenly, they felt the ground of the Lost City shake violently.
All the Sea Palaces experienced intense tremors, but due to the existence of the formations in the Lost City itself, no significant damage occurred despite the shaking.
Wei Chen, along with Killing God Senior, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three were all flying in the air. They looked at the quaking Lost City with a sense of tension. Lifting the entire Lost City was not difficult; what was challenging was breaking through the restrictions left by that Supreme-Level Expert.
Soon, everyone felt that the Lost City had completely lifted off the ground and was slowly ascending higher.
The outcome of success or failure hinged on this moment!
Suddenly, a massive curtain appeared out of nowhere in the Azure Green Pool, enveloping the entire Lost City within it.
The curtain shimmered with emerald green waves; beyond it lay the Azure Green Pool.
A powerful pressure emanated from the curtain, gentle yet authoritative, pressing down on the Lost City.
The upward momentum of the Lost City was instantly suppressed; the rising force of the formation clashed against the suppressive force of the curtain, creating an invisible standoff.
Unseen collisions erupted beneath the curtain, and everyone could feel that astonishing force of impact. At such a moment, even a Twelfth Level Deity would likely suffer serious injuries in those areas.
The power of the formation, once given time to take shape, rendered the might of the strong insignificant in the face of its authority.
Crackling sounds echoed as the two forces clashed, causing the space around them to twist and tremble.
Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three looked anxiously at Wei Chen, their hearts racing with urgency.
They had not anticipated that the Supreme-Level Expert would have such a backup plan. They initially thought that as long as they could withstand the restraining aura, they would be successful. Little did they know that a curtain had extinguished their hopes.
"Wei Chenyu, what should we do now?"
"Yes, think of something quickly! We're so close to success; we can't let it all go to waste!"
"Friend, please! If there's anything we can do to help, we will."
Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three surrounded Wei Chen in a flurry of anxiety, like ants on a hot pan, unable to find any solution.
It seemed like there was no hope left?
Despair crept into the hearts of Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three, their faces turning ashen. The power of the curtain was overwhelming; after they finished speaking, they realized that the previously rising Lost City was now being suppressed and beginning to descend.
Wei Chen's formation simply could not withstand the power of the curtain! The remnants left by the Supreme-Level Expert were not something that could be easily broken through.
A grave expression appeared on Wei Chen's face; he had not expected the strength of the curtain to be so formidable.
"Calm down; we still have a chance," Wei Chen said as he narrowed his eyes at Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three. A mysterious cold light flickered in his gaze.
Seeing that expression on Wei Chen's face, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three suddenly felt that perhaps there was still hope? Throughout this ordeal, they had never seen disappointment on Wei Chen's face; it seemed he had always been filled with confidence!
"Though the curtain is strong, my formation is no pushover. Just wait and see; that dilapidated curtain is not worthy of defeating my formation," Wei Chen said lightly.
Hearing Wei Chen's words, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three suddenly felt a renewed sense of hope.
Under the tense gaze of Uncle, Second Uncle, Great-Uncle Three, and Killing God Senior, Wei Chen shot out like an arrow. In just a few blinks, he had circled around the edge of the Lost City and returned to their side.
Killing God Senior communicated through thought, asking, "Child, what did you do?"
"I activated those attack formations," Wei Chen replied calmly.
He spoke aloud rather than through thought, so Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three all heard him.
They quickly turned to Wei Chen and asked, "Friend, can your attack formations pierce through the barrier left by that powerful expert?"
"Whether it can or not, we have to try," Wei Chen said lightly.
Upon hearing his words, for some reason, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three instantly felt more assured.
After all this time, Wei Chen had never given up hope! Breaking through the barrier left by that powerful expert would undoubtedly require some effort; it couldn't be that simple to succeed.
The expressions on Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three's faces relaxed considerably.
"My attack formations number in the hundreds. Although they are attack formations, they primarily serve as a means to charge forward. It’s impossible to confront the barrier left by a Supreme-Level Expert head-on. My formations rely on a momentary explosion; let’s give it a shot."
As soon as Wei Chen finished speaking, hundreds of silver spikes shot out.
As they charged toward the barrier, the spikes became sharper and thinner, reducing the oppressive force acting upon them to a minimum. The slender spikes successfully broke through the pressure and reached beneath the barrier.
Wei Chen and Killing God Senior, along with Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three, watched intently as the spikes flew.
In their tense anticipation, after a few breaths' time, fine cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the barrier.
Seeing those cracks, Wei Chen quietly relaxed his fists.
Who can truly have confidence? The confidence that Wei Chen displayed was merely to prevent Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three from worrying too much. In reality, deep down, he was also feeling his way across the river. No one knew how powerful the curtain really was, nor dared to test it. Wei Chen felt ambiguous about the sharp spikes of Confidence; he had some Confidence, but not a lot.
The appearance of cracks in the curtain instantly reassured Wei Chen.
As long as there were cracks, everything else would be much easier to handle.
Everyone could clearly feel that the oppressive aura emanating from the curtain diminished little by little with the emergence of the cracks. That aura shot out from the cracks and entered the Azure Green Pool.
At the edge of the Azure Green Pool, everyone stared in horror at the churning surface of the water and the vast, imposing aura that made them feel an overwhelming urge to kneel and worship.
The entire Azure Green Pool began to churn; initially, it only caused slight ripples against the shore. Gradually, towering waves dozens of meters high surged from the center of the Azure Green Pool, rushing out in all directions.
Such powerful waves could not harm those in the Endless Divine Realm. However, their tents set up along the edge of the Azure Green Pool were swept away into the pool within a few blinks.
The spectacle was frightening, but the actual damage was minimal.
Yet everyone became cautious, their eyes filled with fervent anticipation as they fixated on the Azure Green Pool.
It seemed that a Treasure from legends was about to emerge?
