Chapter 52 Breaking the Formation

Shi Chen changed his appearance again and rented a cave in another location of Dutan Fairy City.

This cave was located in the east of the Immortal City. He then disguised himself for the third time, transforming into an ordinary cultivator. He blended into the army of independent cultivators and went to the Thousand Poison Pond every day to watch the Jindan cultivators lead the others in breaking the Immortal Palace's formation.

Beside the Thousand Poison Pond, there are three great Jindan cultivators. The first is Ling Feifei, the city lord of the Poison Pond Fairy City, whose cultivation has reached the perfection of the Jindan stage; the second is Qian Kun, a third-grade formation master invited by Ling Feifei to break the formation, whose cultivation is at the fourth level of the Jindan stage; the third is Luo Zhiren, who came with Qian Kun, whose cultivation is at the fifth level of the Jindan stage.

The three people stood in three directions, about ten feet apart. Two of them stood by the pool, and the formation master Qiankun floated on the water. The three people were in the center. The mist of the Thousand Poison Pool was separated by Qiankun's formation. Within a radius of forty feet, the mist was cleared. Even if you stood outside the formation within ten feet of the mist, you could see everything inside the formation clearly.

Many late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators followed the three of them and extended to the edge of the isolation formation. There were twenty-seven of them, eight of whom were relatively famous.

One of them is Ye Mingyue from Qianjue Sect, whose cultivation has reached the perfect stage of foundation building.

Zhang Xing of Qianjue Sect is at the eighth level of the late foundation building stage.

Senior Brother An Zaiquan from Qingxuan Sect has also completed his foundation building.

Xian Zhimin of Liehuomen is at the eighth level of the late foundation building stage.

The remaining four are independent cultivators, who are relatively famous among the independent cultivators and can enter the top 100 on the Foundation Establishment Celebrity List.

They are Wang Laixi, a cultivator at the eighth level of foundation building.

The Ghost-Faced King, a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

Jin Po, a cultivator in the late foundation building stage.

Mr. Yin is also a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building.

The four foundation-building cultivators from the sect stood at the front of the group. The second group was composed of four relatively famous independent cultivators. Behind them were nineteen foundation-building independent cultivators, who were only half a meter away from the boundary of the isolation array.

Shi Chen did not go to meet Senior Brother An. He had already disguised himself as an ordinary cultivator and hid his cultivation level to the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Among the low-level Qi-refining cultivators, he was inconspicuous.

After about an hour, the monks who came in with him all left the water mist area and went to the entrance outside the water mist area to wait for news.

Everyone wanted to know the progress of the cracking of the Immortal Palace as soon as possible. If a few Jindan cultivators succeeded in breaking the formation, everyone would rush in and grab it frantically. They would make a fortune by grabbing anything.

If you are killed by a cultivator with higher cultivation, it means you are unlucky. This is the gambler mentality held by most low-level cultivators, who want to take a chance and strive for that glimmer of opportunity.

Perhaps one or two monks will succeed, but most of them will die in the ensuing melee.

Shi Chen didn't want to get involved in such a melee. He also wanted to get the opportunity, but his cultivation was too low to fight for it. Here, he was a low-level cultivator, and any cultivator could bully him.

After exiting the outer circle of the formation and coming to an uninhabited place, Shi Chen burrowed into the ground and created a space about five feet underground that was just big enough to accommodate himself. He then began to practice the Five Elements Secret Book.

After practicing the Five Elements Secret Codex for over a year, he had already reached the realm of mastery. The Five Elements Secret Codex could be practiced by any cultivator who possessed the five elements' spiritual roots.

Even someone like Shi Chen, who is despised by others for having five kinds of mixed spiritual roots, is also a cultivator with five kinds of spiritual roots.

The technique practiced by ordinary cultivators is to absorb the attributeless spiritual energy emitted from the spiritual veins and transform it into spiritual power in the dantian.

Cultivators who possess special skills can absorb much more spiritual energy during their practice at a much faster speed and in much greater quantities than ordinary cultivators. Therefore, cultivators who practice special skills can progress much faster than ordinary cultivators.

If the quality of the spiritual roots is also high, the progress of cultivation will be faster.

The Secret Book of the Five Elements allows Shi Chen to absorb the five elements' spiritual energy and non-attribute spiritual energy for cultivation. Compared with those cultivators who can only absorb non-attribute spiritual energy, he can have six times the efficiency. In addition, with the use of top-grade Qi Condensation Pills to assist in cultivation, his cultivation efficiency increases exponentially.

As long as he can find a place with abundant spiritual energy of the five elements, he will be able to quickly cultivate to perfection in Qi Refining.

In ordinary places, the five elements are not complete, so his practice is only about twice as efficient.

Now, the misty area of Thousand Poison Pond is the most advantageous place for him to practice.

According to the letter left in the cave, this place was formerly called Shenlongtan. It became what it is today after the arrangement of the positive and negative five elements formation. The five elements' spiritual energy interacted with each other and formed mist. The cultivators could not realize that the water mist was transformed by the five elements' spiritual energy.

The large formation gathers the five elements spiritual energy within a radius of hundreds of miles, deploys the five elements spiritual energy that are mutually reinforcing and restraining, and converts it into water mist through the formation.

Any cultivator who enters will be invaded by this mist. If they cannot absorb and refine the invading mist, they will be affected by the mist, feel paralyzed, and eventually fall into a coma. After a period of time, the mist will soak you and begin to corrode your flesh, spirit, and dantian.

As the Five Elements Secret Book was running, the surrounding fog became thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye. Above the ground where Shi Chen escaped, the originally thick water mist gradually became thinner, and the areas where the water mist was thick began to replenish the water mist in the thin areas.

Although it is slow, you can still feel the contrast between thick and thin fog. If you feel the contrast carefully, you can find the difference.

Shi Chen felt an unprecedented sense of joy, and his cultivation level increased extremely rapidly, dozens of times faster than before.

If cultivation could be measured, one would find that his cultivation was like water flowing into a tank, increasing every moment at a huge rate.

In three days, he passed the sixth level of Qi Refining and reached the seventh level directly, continuing his cultivation. He had previously felt his meridians were blocked, but now, in this place, he no longer felt that blockage.

A month passed and his cultivation reached the eighth level of Qi Refining. He wanted to continue practicing until the end of time, but unfortunately, a loud noise interrupted his practice.

After stopping his cultivation, he escaped from the ground and came to the circle of free cultivators outside the formation. Only then did he realize that the defense formation of the Immortal Palace had been broken.

The Jindan cultivators and foundation-building cultivators who were isolated in the water mist array have all entered the immortal palace.

Many low-level cultivators on the periphery were unable to enter, and some anxious cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining followed the Foundation Establishment cultivators in. Many Qi Refining cultivators who rushed in first were killed on the spot by the Foundation Establishment cultivators.

After the foundation-building cultivator entered, the wandering cultivators rushed forward and snatched the relics of the slain cultivator.

There was chaos outside the entrance of the Immortal Mansion. A cultivator at the seventh level of the late Qi Refining Realm saw that Shi Chen's cultivation level was at the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill him. However, Shi Chen pierced his body with a perfect Ice Arrow Technique, and then killed him with a Fire Dragon Technique. The cultivators who saw the situation avoided Shi Chen from a distance.

A cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining was killed in a single encounter. Even a cultivator at the ninth level would have needed more than ten or twenty breaths of fighting to defeat him without a sneak attack. Now, it only took one breath and two spells to kill him. Even cultivators at the perfect stage of Qi Refining would give way when they saw him.

Watching the hundreds of foundation-building cultivators entering the Immortal Palace, and the newly arrived foundation-building cultivators entering from time to time, Shi Chen did not hesitate and followed a cultivator of the second level of foundation-building into the entrance of the Immortal Palace.

In a trance, the two were teleported to a dense forest valley, and saw a floating palace more than ten miles away. Several Jindan monks were attacking the palace formation. There were only a dozen foundation-building monks near the palace, standing behind the Jindan monks and attacking the formation together.

The foundation-building cultivator in front of Shi Chen used his spiritual sense to scan and found that Shi Chen behind him was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. He ignored him and directly fled to the floating palace.

Shi Chen scanned out his spiritual sense and found that there was a restricted air formation, so he could only use escape techniques or other acceleration spells to move.

He used the wind escape technique to escape into the dense forest. Different cultivators appeared behind him one after another, and they all used the escape technique to move towards the floating palace.
