Long River Eternity

Chapter 23 Formation

When a monster reaches the Yinyuan realm, it will gradually develop intelligence, and when it reaches the Yuheng realm, it will be able to speak human language.

Judging from the size of this two-headed python, only slightly smaller than the one that attacked the ruins last time, it was at least at the peak of the Dongming Realm, possessing considerable intelligence. It was likely drawn here by a spiritual vein, but had been unable to locate it.

Now, not only did he follow the three people, he could even tell that Lin Ding was the leader of the three, and that Lin Ding had the lowest cultivation level, so he was ready to capture the leader first.

It failed to hit him, and without paying any attention to the sentry Wei Wu, it continued to attack Lin Ding. Lin Ding dodged awkwardly by turning sideways.

At this time, Wei Wu stabilized his injuries, rushed towards the two-headed python at high speed, and punched it on the head.

"You dare to attack us? I'll use you to test the power of Tiangang Yiqi Jue!"

Wei Wu was not afraid of the gap in their realms at all. He swung his fist and hit the two-headed python.

The passage was quite wide for humans, but it was a bit narrow for the two-headed python. It tried to attack Wei Wu with its tail several times, but was always blocked by the side walls of the passage, allowing Wei Wu to avoid the attacks calmly.

Although the two-headed python was restricted in every way, Wei Wu was able to gain the upper hand for a while.

The two-headed python's tail brushed the sidewall again and attacked Wei Wu, but Wei Wu decisively jumped back to avoid the attack. This time, the two-headed python took advantage of Wei Wu's escape to coil itself up, leaving only part of its tail and head exposed to fight.

"Hiss~Hiss~" The two-headed python stared at Wei Wu with cold eyes. Although Wei Wu's series of attacks did not cause much damage to it and only broke some of its scales, it completely ignited its anger.

On the other hand, Wei Wu's face was full of excitement and excitement.

"Yesterday I was still marveling at the strength of the beasts that attacked the ruins, but I didn't expect that today I would have the ability to fight against the peak-level monsters in the Dongming realm. It's so refreshing! Keep going!" Wei Wu said as he rushed towards the two-headed python again.

The two-headed python now knew that close combat was disadvantageous, so it opened its two bloody mouths and energy balls shot out from its mouth one after another, flying towards Wei Wu at an extremely fast speed.

Seeing one energy ball after another flying towards him, Wei Wu was forced to stop rushing forward. He had to move up and down to avoid the attacks while slowly closing the distance between himself and the two-headed python.

When he was two meters away from the two-headed python, Wei Wu seized the opportunity when one of the python's heads was attacking, suddenly closed the distance, gathered an energy ball in his hand, and directly shot the ball towards the python's mouth.

Unexpectedly, this was a flaw that the two-headed python deliberately revealed. When Wei Wu focused all his attention on its head, the coiled snake tail pierced Wei Wu's chest like a spear.

Although his strength increased significantly in a short period of time, he was still a student who had never faced a life-and-death battle. He lacked experience in fighting the enemy and was stabbed hard in the chest by the snake's tail.

The blood spurted out of Wei Wu's mouth like an arrow, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

Seeing Wei Wu crashing into the wall, Lin Ding initially tried to catch him, but he was unable to withstand the force of Wei Wu's backward flight, and both he and Wei Wu slammed into the wall. Fortunately, Lin Ding's slight intervention prevented Wei Wu from sustaining more serious injuries.

The energy ball that Wei Wu was about to shoot out slipped out of his hand when he was knocked away, flew to a distance behind the crowd, and exploded. The entire passage was filled with a large amount of smoke and dust caused by the explosion.

The originally dim passage was now pitch dark, but it gave the two a chance to catch their breath.

"Are you okay?" Lin Ding asked as he helped Wei Wu who was lying beside him.

"It's just a few broken ribs, not a big deal." Wei Wu gritted his teeth.

"I'll take advantage of the two-headed python's limited vision to heal you first." Lin Ding said as he quickly used the rejuvenation technique to stabilize Wei Wu's injuries.

Because there are spiritual veins in the channel, the spiritual energy is more abundant, and the effect of the rejuvenation technique is more than twice as good as before.

With a rejuvenation technique, Wei Wu's injuries recovered by 80%. Now he only felt a dull pain at the place where he was hit.

"It feels so good. I was careless just now and didn't dodge. Now I'm going to fight it for another eight hundred rounds." Wei Wu stood up, his face full of excitement.

At this time, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and the figure of the two-headed python gradually appeared. Wei Wu rushed over the moment he caught sight of the two-headed python's figure.

Seeing Wei Wu charging towards it with such vigor, the two-headed python was visibly stunned. It had just dealt this human a solid blow, yet now it was completely unscathed. This made the two-headed python attack more cautiously, fearing that Wei Wu was hiding his strength.

"Lin Ding, the concentration of spiritual energy here is richer than before." When Lin Ding was concentrating on watching Wei Wu's battle and thinking about how to defeat the two-headed python, Yang An's voice rang out.

"Hmm?" Hearing Yang An's voice, Lin Ding felt it carefully, "Indeed, it is much richer than before, and the concentration is still increasing."

"The source seems to be the location where Wei Wu's energy ball exploded. Let's go and take a look." Yang An said.

Lin Ding hesitated for a moment, looked at the fierce battle between the man and the python, and found that it was difficult to tell who was stronger between the two, so he quickly ran towards the explosion.

"What's wrong?" Liu Xianxian asked curiously as they passed by. From the beginning, Liu Xianxian knew that she couldn't help Wei Wu with her own skills, so she stood at a distance to avoid being a burden.

"There's something fishy about the location of the explosion just now. Let's go and check it out." Lin Ding said as he walked.

Liu Xianxian followed Lin Ding, and soon they came to the deeper part of the passage, where the energy ball had exploded before.

The spiritual stones embedded in the stone walls here are more densely packed, and the concentration of spiritual energy in this area is now several times higher than before.

A two-meter-wide hole appeared before them. The previous explosion had created another hole. A strong light shone from below, brightening the area around it.

"There's another layer underneath." Liu Xianxian said in surprise.

The two walked to the edge of the cave and looked down. The space below wasn't very large, only about ten square meters, but there were stones the size of human heads, shining brightly white, placed on the ground. Looking closely around these stones, one could see strands of multicolored light entwined.

The stones were arranged in the order of eight on the outermost circle, five in the middle, two in the inner circle, and one in the middle. The central stone was even twice the size of the others.

In the light reflected by these stones, it can be seen that an extremely complex pattern is drawn on the ground beneath the stones.

"Someone actually used the best spiritual essence as the eye of the formation, based on the Tai Chi Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and drew a formation here?" Yang An's voice sounded.

"Formation? What is it used for?" Lin Ding asked.

"I don't know, I haven't seen this kind of formation before." Yang An said.

As soon as Yang An finished speaking, there was a "bang" sound in the distance, and Wei Wu's body drew an arc in the air and landed not far away from the two of them.

Wei Wu, covered in wounds, trembled as he climbed up from the ground. He turned back and gave Lin Ding a wry smile: "Oh no, it seems I still can't win."

On the other hand, although the two-headed python had many wounds on its body and even one of its heads was blind in one eye, the injuries were basically superficial and its condition was much better than Wei Wu's.

Just as Lin Ding was about to go up to help, Yang An's voice rang out again: "Have Liu Xianxian use the Green Leaf Condensation Technique on you to condense the rich spiritual energy here and temporarily boost your advancement to the peak of the Divine Realm. Combined with the Chaos Creation Sutra I taught you, you will be able to easily defeat this strange python."

After hearing this, Lin Ding did not hesitate and shouted to Wei Wu, "Wei Wu, hold on a little longer. I have a way to answer it."

"Don't worry, I will never let it move forward again." Wei Wu said firmly.

So Lin Ding quickly conveyed Yang An's words to Liu Xianxian.

Liu Xianxian became extremely nervous after hearing this. After all, she had not conducted too in-depth research on this technique since she got it. She only knew that the core ability of this technique was to gather energy and make herself or others burst out with a force far more powerful than their own.

After hearing Lin Ding's words, Liu Xianxian recalled the key points of the exercises and made hand gestures one by one. When the last hand gesture was completed, the surrounding spiritual energy transformed into solid white mist, especially the top-grade spiritual essence in the cave, which released a thick white mist and quickly gathered in front of Liu Xianxian.

Even though Liu Xianxian could not feel the spiritual energy, she knew that the technique had been successfully performed when she saw the white mist in front of her.

Soon, the spiritual energy was gathered, and Liu Xianxian injected all the spiritual energy gathered in front of her into Lin Ding's body. After injecting the spiritual energy, Liu Xianxian seemed to have been drained of all her strength. She fell to the ground powerlessly and fell into a coma.

Suddenly, Lin Ding's clothes fluttered, and a powerful pressure emanated from his body, which was even more powerful than that of the Yaoguang Realm.
