I am cultivating immortals in mortal science

Chapter 2160 The Road Ahead for the Ancient God of the Way
The Thirty-Three Heavens Locking Void Array is an ancient divine power passed down from the Primordial Era by the Heavenly Court. It requires the intervention of the Dao Ancestor to be used. It can fuse different laws of power together to form a confined space.

The more laws of power are integrated, the greater the power of the Thirty-Three Heavens Locking Void Array will be.

Legend has it that this divine power can fuse thirty-three different laws, and its power is enough to imprison the entire immortal realm.

However, the more Dao Ancestors participate, the greater the difficulty becomes. Unless one is dedicated to cultivation, the limit is reached when four or five people work together.

"This formation clearly draws upon the power of the Heavenly Dao, but it is inferior to that ancient demon god formation."

The fusion of multiple laws is clearly related to the future of the Dao Ancestor. Allowing the Heavenly Dao to participate may seem to greatly increase its upper limit, but in reality, it will only do harm.

"However, this formation has taken its first step and has considerable value. How can we obtain its formation diagram?"

Luo Hong's mind stirred, and her gaze involuntarily swept over True Monarch Cangwu and the others, but she quickly shook her head.

Although they are Dao Ancestors, their relationship with the Heavenly Court is distant, so they certainly wouldn't have the array diagrams in hand.

Luo Hong then turned her gaze to the Heavenly Court camp, where she saw that they were mostly engaged in battle with the Demon Barbarian army, except for Chi Meng, the precious granddaughter of Dao Ancestor Chi Rong, who was protected in a ball of divine flames.

"Does Fairy Crimson Dream still remember that wisp of Crimson Heavenly Flame?"

The sudden telepathic message startled Chi Meng, but she quickly recovered and replied with a slight frown:

"Are you Luo Hong? Where are you?"

When Luo Hong and Chi Meng were acquainted in the past, Luo Hong used her real name but never revealed her true appearance. It is normal that she cannot find Luo Hong now.

"Fairy, don't ask so many questions. First, tell me if you have the array diagram of the Thirty-Three Heavens Locking Void Array. This is extremely important to Luo Hong!"

If Chi Meng hadn't obtained the array diagram from Chi Rong, then there would have been no need for him to put in the effort later.

"This ancient formation is not a top secret. I did make a copy out of interest, but it was too profound for me to understand even a fraction of it. Why are you asking about this?"
"Are you also from the Samsara Palace?!"

The most terrifying thing about the spies in the Samsara Palace is that they themselves are unaware that they are spies before they are put into service, making them completely untraceable.

Chi Meng couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

"You jest, fairy. At this point, it's time to use any spies. I'll show you something; don't resist!"

After transmitting his thoughts, Luo Hong sent out a stream of divine ideas, which was a screenshot of his conversation with the Heavenly Evolution God.

The content is limited, only proving that Gu or Jin did indeed collude with the Chaos Demon God, without any other information.

It wasn't that Luo Hong was deliberately hiding it, but rather because time was of the essence.

"The Supreme One actually possessed Chen Tianjun's remains. What does this have to do with that array diagram?!"

Because of her identity as Chi Rong, Chi Meng had several encounters with Chen Tuan, the Heavenly Lord who always sat in the Heavenly Court and divined the world. The latter even performed a divination for her.

The divination indicates that Chi Meng is a born lucky star, the ancestor of koi fish, and will be blessed by a powerful being from birth. However, she will face a calamity only after advancing to the late stage of the Great Luo realm.

If you can overcome this obstacle, your good fortune will continue; if you cannot, all the good fortune of the past will turn against you.

During her previous trip to Jiuyuan Temple, Chi Meng was seriously injured by Li Yuanjiu, and her cultivation level had dropped. However, she was doing her part for the Heavenly Court, so Chi Rong used this as an excuse to ask Gu Huojin for a large amount of immortal materials, which actually helped her gather the Nine Flames Burning Heaven Immortal Array needed for her advancement.

After being refined by the immortal array, Chi Meng broke through from the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm to the late-stage of the Great Luo realm in one fell swoop.

The grandmother and granddaughter naturally hadn't forgotten the divination given by their ancestor Chen Tuan, but they always thought that this calamity would befall Chi Rong.

After all, once Chi Rong dies and his path disappears, Chi Meng's past arrogance will be matched by his future misery.

To this end, the Crimson Heavenly Lord had already made countless preparations, some of which even the Crimson Dream was unaware of!
At that very moment, when Chi Meng saw Chen Tuan's remains, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered that divination, as if she had reached a crucial juncture.

"Grandpa Chen, they all say that you can't calculate others' fortunes, are you no exception?"

Little Red Dream tilted her head and asked.

"Hahaha, those ordinary people certainly can't do that!"

Chen Tuan laughed heartily.

A flashback of memory struck Chi Meng, and before she could react, she spoke up, speaking before Luo Hong could:

"You don't need to say anything, I will immediately transmit the array diagram to you!"

"Why did you suddenly become so cheerful?"

Although Luo Hong had a doubt in his heart, he had no time to think about it at the moment, after all, the array diagram was indeed very profound, and even he needed time to comprehend it.

On the other hand, with the addition of Gu Huojin, the Thirty-Three Heavens Locking Void Array has now incorporated five laws, directly imprisoning the Lord of the Samsara Palace within it to the point of complete immobility.

At this moment, Gu Huojin made a grasping motion to the left and right, and a golden light entered the main body of the Samsara Palace and then quickly flew out again.

Enveloped in golden light was a silver talisman. When Gu Huojin took it, he saw that it was covered with silver patterns, and in the center was an ancient character “定” (ding), emitting extremely subtle spatial fluctuations.

"A spatial locator. No wonder Shi Kongyu was able to break through the many restrictions of my Heavenly Court and open a spatial passage directly here. You came to the Bodhi Banquet to bring this talisman in, didn't you?"

"Too bad, you underestimated the power of my Heavenly Court. Take him away."

With a flick of his wrist, Gu Huojin caused the silver talisman to shatter into dust amidst golden light, shaking his head in disappointment.

"go!"

Li Yuanjiu agreed, and the four of them cast a spell together, flying backwards with a five-colored light shield.

Upon seeing this, the Heavenly Court cultivators who were engaged in fierce battle cheered excitedly, as if a great victory was already within reach.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, is this the backup plan you mentioned?"

Cangwu Zhenjun was extremely dissatisfied at this moment. He realized that he seemed to have blindly trusted Luo Hong.

Luo Hong was busy studying the array diagram and had no time to pay attention to it.

Fortunately, an anomaly occurred soon!
"what!"

"It hurts me too!"

Two shrill screams rang out, and a surging aftershock came from behind, causing Gu Huojin to stagger.

The moment Gu Huojin turned his head, his eyes narrowed immediately. He saw a giant, black claw the size of a house appear before him, its five sharp, scythe-like nails flashing with dark light as it stabbed down fiercely toward his head.

Black energy swirled around the giant claw, emanating an extremely evil aura. It seemed to be an endless resentment buried deep in the Yellow Springs, which had come to the mortal world and was determined to kill all living beings and drag them into the Avici Hell!

Behind this giant claw was the Lord of the Samsara Palace, who should have been imprisoned.

What shocked both ancient and modern people even more was that the middle-aged man in white and the dwarf old man had both been cut in two and lay in pools of blood.

Although the two have not yet perished, they have essentially lost their fighting ability.

Of the four, Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong were nowhere to be seen.

Therefore, it is obvious who was responsible for this anomaly!

Gu Huojin immediately snorted coldly and waved his sleeve, turning it into a layer of golden light screen to block in front of him.

A sharp "sizzle" sound rang out, and the golden light screen trembled violently, but it was ultimately stopped after the black giant claw pierced nearly halfway into the light screen.

Suddenly, the space behind Gu Huojin twisted, and a ball of fire, as red as a blazing sun, shot out from it and smashed directly into Gu Huojin's back.

The fireball contained countless crimson patterns, which formed a grand array and exuded a powerful aura of the Great Dao.

Instantly, an unbelievable, terrifying heat was released from the crimson sun, instantly melting the surrounding space within a hundred feet, as well as the nearby Yaochi Square.

Those Heavenly Court cultivators and White Cloud Dao soldiers who were closer to them instantly burst into flames, turning to ashes without even uttering a scream!

Just as the crimson sun was displaying its power, countless golden rays appeared out of thin air nearby, each ray containing extremely terrifying true gold power.

The next moment, tens of thousands of golden light threads shot out, actually cutting through the sea of ​​fire that was melting everything, and piercing towards the ancient or modern within.

A terrifying piercing sound was heard as the thick cloud layer beneath Gu Huojin's feet, which had supported the Heavenly Court for countless years, was easily pierced. Tens of thousands of golden rays fell directly onto the Heavenly Palace Continent below, creating numerous bottomless craters!

After the attack, Chi Rong and Li Yuanjiu appeared amidst crimson and golden light respectively, their eyes fixed on the center of the sea of ​​fire.

"Supreme!"

The middle-aged man in white and the elderly dwarf lying on the ground looked anxious and worried as they stared at the spot where Gu Huojin had originally been sitting.

The others also looked on incredulously, staring in astonishment at Chi Rong and Li Yuanjiu!

"Crimson Heavenly Lord and Li Heavenly Lord have actually sided with the Samsara Palace! How is this possible!"

Cangwu Zhenjun could hardly believe his eyes; he couldn't fathom how the Lord of Samsara had bribed them.

"Those who act justly gain abundant support, while those who act unjustly find themselves isolated. Could it be that there's something fishy going on in Heaven?"

Zhen Shiyin, who was standing to the side, suddenly turned his eyes and said meaningfully.

Cangwu Zhenjun gave him a strange look, but didn't say anything. Instead, he quickly shifted his gaze to Luo Hong.

"What did he discover this time? I don't understand anything."

Seeing Luo Hong deep in thought again, True Monarch Cangwu couldn't help but have some doubts about himself.

Just then, a massive force of time suddenly swept over him. True Monarch Cangwu turned his head sharply to look, only to find that it was merely the aftershock.

At its source, the crimson sea of ​​fire and the golden threads of light were all frozen in mid-air.

Upon seeing this, Chi Rong and Li Yuanjiu's expressions changed slightly, and they retreated.

The next moment, a golden mist billowed out from the sea of ​​fire.

Wherever it passed, whether it was a black ghost claw, a crimson sea of ​​fire, or thousands of golden threads, they all decayed and decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, they all turned to ashes, leaving only a tranquil golden mist.

At this moment, the golden mist swirled back and instantly disappeared into Gu Huojin's body, revealing his brand-new clothes.

"Supreme!"

The snow-white middle-aged man and the dwarf old man had barely managed to piece their bodies together. Seeing this scene, I was deeply shocked.

Despite being ambushed by two Dao Ancestors, Gu Huojin didn't lose a single hair or his clothes were completely undamaged, which is simply unbelievable!
"I am unharmed."

Gu Huojin replied calmly, then made a hand seal and pointed, sending out two beams of golden light that entered the bodies of the middle-aged man in white and the dwarf old man, respectively.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed across their bodies, and all their wounds were instantly healed, even their auras returned to normal, as if their previous serious injuries were nothing but a mirage.

"Back in time!"

The Lord of Samsara Palace, who had also retreated to a distance, frowned slightly upon seeing this scene.

The Heavenly Court, on the other hand, was brimming with power!

"Thank you, Supreme!"

The snow-white-skinned middle-aged man and the dwarf old man both showed expressions of surprise and delight, and bowed to the ancient or modern man in gratitude.

Gu Huojin merely nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong, and said in a deep voice:

"Li Yuanjiu, Chi Rong, I have always treated you well, why do you betray me today?"

Upon hearing this, even cultivators who were engaged in a magical battle couldn't help but spare a moment of their attention.

"Do you two not believe the Supreme One's promise?!"

At this moment, even Dao Ancestor Baiyun couldn't help but question him.

Clearly, he was also part of that promise.

"Hehe, there's always a way to circumvent any oath. Fellow Daoist Baiyun, it's best not to believe those words so readily, or you'll end up wasting your life on someone else's efforts."

Li Yuanjiu chuckled and offered advice to Dao Ancestor Baiyun.

"It's not that I don't believe in the Supreme One, but that I believe in Fellow Daoist Chen even more."

Chi Rong then said something that left everyone confused.

Only Chi Meng understood that her grandmother was referring to the great calamity predicted by the ancestor Chen Tuan.

Clearly, Chi Rong believed that this great calamity would kill her, and she was far from reaching the point of attaining the Dao. In addition, the Lord of the Samsara Palace had extended an olive branch, so this calamity could only befall Gu or Jin!
"Nonsense! You two are truly beyond saving!"

Baiyun Daozu was furious upon hearing this.

"Since you have temporarily ceased fighting, why don't you listen to what I have to say?"

At this moment, the Lord of Samsara flew forward and spoke loudly to the crowd who had unconsciously stopped fighting.

"Right here in the Heavenly Court, there is a man who can be called the greatest villain in the world. For his own selfish gain, he does not hesitate to betray everyone to the demon gods of the outer realms, and even wants to destroy the entire Immortal Realm!"

"Oh? Who is this person?"

Gu Huojin knew that the Lord of Reincarnation was referring to him, but there was no anger on his face. Instead, he asked with a smile.

"Naturally, it is you, the ruler of the celestial realm, the supreme being of the Heavenly Court!"

The Lord of Samsara Palace snorted coldly and exposed the truth without hesitation.

"fart!"

"You single-handedly founded the Samsara Palace, causing immense suffering to countless lives. You are the greatest villain of our time!"

Immediately, angry shouts rang out from the Heavenly Court camp.

These people felt even worse than if they had been killed when they heard the Lord of Samsara Palace slandering the ancient or the modern!

Ignoring the barking of the dogs, the Lord of Samsara continued to speak, recounting the deeds of the ninth Heavenly Court Supreme Being, the previous Supreme Being—the Ancient Dao God.

"Gu Dao Shen is a genius who not only cultivated the Law of Time to the level of Dao Ancestor, but also created an unparalleled formation that can integrate different laws into one, which is awe-inspiring in all realms."

The Bodhi Dao Fruit you just consumed was refined using the Dao God Seal derived from this formation, which can effectively slow down the rate at which the Dao Ancestor is eroded by the Great Dao.

And this is only the fusion of nine laws; the arrays created by the Ancient God of Dao are far more than this.

It is conceivable that if this formation could be set up to its fullest potential, it might be possible to completely block the Great Dao from eroding the Dao Ancestor.

A Dao Ancestor who is unafraid of the erosion of the Great Dao has undoubtedly paved a new path forward!
