Chapter 351 Decisive Battle (2)
Gu Yuchuan felt immense pressure within the Dragon Imprisonment Formation, but he wasn't in a hurry. This was what made the fight interesting; what was the point of a one-sided crushing defeat? This was the kind of fighting that felt comfortable.
A gigantic hand materialized in the sky, possessing boundless power, much like the Buddha's palm, except that it was filled with Taoist magical power and had no trace of Buddhist influence.
Gu Yuchuan infused his magical power into the Hunyuan Treasure Umbrella. Instantly, the umbrella grew enormous, completely obscuring his view. The golden light emanated an aura of sacred inviolability, making Gu Yuchuan appear as a true deity.
The enormous hand collided with the treasure umbrella, unleashing another fierce impact. However, this time, the human race, having formed an array, was attacking with the combined power of eighteen individuals. The force was completely different; even Gu Yuchuan, who had used a top-grade magic weapon, felt immense pressure.
It should be known that top-grade magic treasures are extremely rare treasures even in the hands of Nascent Soul stage cultivators. They can greatly increase the strength of Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and even Golden Core stage cultivators cannot fully utilize them. However, even so, they are still much more powerful than high-grade magic treasures. But even so, Gu Yuchuan's face turned pale instantly. Obviously, the pressure was immense. However, this is where things get interesting.
He laughed again: "Not bad, now you are the real ones who can fight me. Continue, let me see what strength you have left. If this is all you have, you will never be able to defeat me. I can kill you all without any surprises."
That's true. He still has many tricks up his sleeve. Although this top-grade magic weapon is powerful, it's not exactly a trump card in his hands. He has at least three or five moves that are much more powerful than this. He's waiting for his opponent to make a move. After all, this is something he's never encountered before, so he needs to observe it carefully before making a move. Otherwise, making a move without understanding it might cause problems.
On the human side, although the attack did not cause any damage, they were not in a hurry. This was only the first move of the formation. They knew how powerful this prodigy was. Although they had confidence in the formation, this was only the first attack and was more of a test. Both sides were like this, so how could they possibly achieve any results?
They looked at each other and nodded, encouraging each other. They were determined to win and could not afford to fail.
In the sky, several Venerables were still watching the battle. However, the Azure Cloud Realm was calm and composed. Now, the Demon Venerable felt that the outcome was already decided. The most difficult Dragon-Slaying Formation had been overcome, and there was no reason for them to lose in such a place. Moreover, Gu Yuchuan still had a ball of demonic energy in his hand. If they really couldn't win, he could use this demonic energy to corrupt a few of the opponents, and the formation would be broken immediately. What difficulty was there?
The Immortal Venerable's expression grew increasingly grim. He began to ponder whether their Canglan Realm was truly doomed to lose. If the dragon-walking spree succeeded, the Heavenly Dao's share would be even smaller, and its power even weaker. This would make it even easier for the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Azure Cloud Realm to make their move. This was clearly not in their favor; in that case, they would have already lost. He was certain that even at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, he couldn't defeat the Demon Venerable or the Celestial Master. If even one of them could make a move, their fate would be sealed.
But he was truly unwilling to give up his hard-earned legacy. What else could he do but abandon it? Was he really going to die here, buried with the Canglan Realm? Compared to his legacy and resources, survival was far more important. Was he really going to join the Samsara Palace or the Main God Space?
However, he was already very used to a life of luxury and really didn't want to live under someone else's roof again, or live a life of constant uncertainty. Although a Nascent Soul expert was highly valued in the Main God Space and the Samsara Palace, and wouldn't be killed easily, this mission definitely required fighting, and that was the price. He really didn't want to live that kind of life, but if he failed, his only option to save his life was to join a force.
The Immortal Venerable was already pondering whether the Main God Space or the Samsara Palace was better. After all, both had contacted him and could protect him, but there must be differences. One of them was definitely safer. He was already thinking about this, and obviously, he felt that their chances of winning were relatively small, even negligible. The Dragon Imprisoning Formation was indeed much less powerful than the Dragon Slaying Formation.
Moreover, Gu Yuchuan achieved a breakthrough in battle, becoming a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage. This further enhanced his strength. In his worldview, this kind of treatment was something only the protagonists of novels could enjoy. In his previous life, he had read countless fantasy novels where the protagonists would only achieve a breakthrough in battle when they encountered difficulties; no one else received this privilege.
Actually, calling Gu Yuchuan the protagonist is quite fitting, since the protagonist is essentially a chosen one of destiny. Perhaps the protagonist is even more favored, a higher-level chosen one of destiny, while Gu Yuchuan is only a lower-level chosen one of destiny. However, he is already a true chosen one of destiny, not some candidate chosen one of destiny, but a true son of the Heavenly Dao. If this were in the Qingyun Realm, he might even have the potential to defy the Nascent Soul stage.
As they watched, the battle intensified. The formation shifted once more, and under their control, countless chains flew towards Gu Yuchuan. These chains were the Dragon-Binding Locks, designed to counter their dragon race. However, while a refined magical artifact would be much more effective, these were merely chains formed from magical power, and their effectiveness was quite limited—at least in Gu Yuchuan's eyes.
He picked up his spear and began to intercept and attack the chains in front of him. Each of his attacks looked majestic and pleasing to the eye, and at the same time, it was full of power. Every time the chains collided with him, they were directly bounced off, which showed that the power was much smaller than Gu Yuchuan's own magic power.
He handled it very simply, and even had the energy to mock them, which shows that he was not under any pressure.
"Is this all the strength you have? If you have no other means, you might as well just commit suicide. You think you can take me down with this little attack? You're delusional. If you have no other options, then I'm going to start my counterattack."
