Chapter 224 Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation
After three days, the allies finally commenced their attack of the Devil Realm!
Because the strong Bounded Domain at the interfaces of different clans had already disappeared, the allies entered the Devil Realm without any difficulty, and even blasted their way through by using numerous cannons.
Unexpectedly, the Devil Realm did not panic in such a situation. On the contrary, they used a kind of black stone to form a special Bounded Domain, which blocked all the attacks from the cannons. No wonder they had the courage to refuse the Immortal Allies publicly!
The allies who thought that they break in easily into the Devil Realm by using their cannons, had to review their attack plan at this moment. They would feel ashamed if they retreated at this point!
So after a brief discussion, the allies were ready to engage in a tug-of-war with the Devil Realm. Anyway, the war with the Nether Big World had lasted for hundreds of years, and this war could not possibly last longer than that one.
Lyu Liang and the others sneaked into the rear of the Devil Realm, three days after the start of the war. During this period, a big-eyed, thin man with bushy eyebrows, came to Zhu Yu. This person was introduced as Wu Yingzhao. He was one of the hardcore younger brother who had followed Zhu Yu to the Mortal World. He was definitely trustworthy.
Although the Devil Realm laid a large defensive array unit that hindered the advance of the allies in the battlefield, yet it was impossible to prevent Lyu Liang from advancing.
When the Dreamy Crystal Vessel appeared in the wilderness in the Devil Realm, keeping a low profile, several figures appeared inside it, one of whom took out a map. After a few minutes of discussion, they dispersed.
………………………………
Five days later, in a hotel in the main city of the Anye Clan, Lyu Liang, Huangfu Gang, and Nie Qingyun gathered together. Except for Nie Qingyun, who showed his original appearance, the other two had changed their appearances totally.
“Master, this magic stone is too good! I was even not recognized by the powerful figure of the Anye Clan, the night when I sat next to him, haha!” Nie Qingyun was excited to be a part of the action.
The hunched back old man by his side, who was actually Huangfu Gang in disguise, whispered, “Only you are a stranger to him, but the Devil Realm is too familiar with Lyu Liang and I. But for this disguised appearance, I can use my Spiritual Qi to take you away now!”
Lyu Liang was still disguised as a strongman with whiskers, and he nodded, “After two days of observation by Qingyun, the powerful figures of the Anye Clan are all at the battlefield. And Black hasn’t returned yet, so it seems they might be up to other tricks!”
The people who sneaked into the Devil Realm, were divided into three groups. Lyu Liang and the other two formed one group; the families of the Remote Antiquity and Wu Yingzhao formed one group, and Yang Ying and Wen Ying formed one group. They decided to first find out about the basic situation of the Devil Realm, and then come up with an intrusion plan.
Another day passed, and Black returned, bringing back important information about the inside of the Anye Clan residence.
“As for the Anye Clan, Dark Night Shenyang, the leader, has personally taken most of the core disciples to the main battlefield. At present, in addition to the two elders at the Peak of Devil Emperor period, there are no other powerful figures. But I saw sixteen men wearing red robes in their core places, who revealed no aura at all. I thought that was weird!” After saying that, Black looked at Huangfu Gang and added, “I saw your mother imprisoned in a secret room of the Dark Night Family. She is alive, but her condition is not that good. There is a strong restriction formation there, but it should not be a problem for Lyu Liang and I.”
“Red robes? Are they also embroidered with unicorn lines?” Huangfu Gang squinted. When he saw Black nodding, he continued in a low voice, “It’s the Huoxiao Clan! It seems that they have already come up with a defensive plan! And, sixteen… sixteen… It’s bit troublesome now!”
It was rare to see Huangfu Gang furrowing his eyebrows, so Lyu Liang knew it would be not be an easy task to save the people. He then asked, “What do you recall?”
Huangfu Gang sighed, “If I am correct, the sixteen people are probably “Guardians” of the Huoxiao Clan! I did not expect them to be guarding the Anye Clan! It seems that the bond between those old guys is beyond my expectation!”
“Guardians?” Lyu Liang remembered that Xuanli Feiwu was a guardian of the Xuanli Clan at that time, so he asked, “Do they have any amazing means? We are not weak at all, and aided by the Dreamy Crystal Vessel, we have a good chance to break into the Devil Realm and save them!”
“Brother Lyu, do you know anything about the ‘Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation’?” Lyu Liang was stunned, when Huangfu Gang, unexpectedly asked this question.
“One of the thirty-six strange formations of the ancient times, the ‘Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation?” The voice of White suddenly sounded, apparently in disbelief, “I did not expect that the Devil Clan in the Mortal World could bring together 16 people under such a strict standard, interesting!” He did not look anxious, but it seemed that he could not help laughing.
Looking at Lyu Liang and Nie Qingyun who were so surprised, Huangfu Gang did not keep them guessing, but told them about this strange formation, in detail.
There were four branches of the thirty-six strange formations of the ancient times: Death Formation, Impasse Formation, Prohibition Formation and Revive Formation.
For the Death Formation, it meant that people would be trapped in it, and had no hope to survive. The Five Ghosts Moving Array Formation was the same.
Impasse Formation was the “Trap Formation” actually, where one would not die, but had no chance to escape. The most famous Impasse Formation was called the Loss Formation, which was also the great formation that had sealed the Calamity Troop.
The Prohibition Formation was the most special. Anyone who entered this kind of Formation would be prohibited by some Power of Law, except for the one who set the formation. The most famous two Prohibition Formations were : the Two Way Prohibition Formation and the Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation.
The Revive Formation was the first kind that had been completely lost, because its function was to revive the previous skill. The most powerful Revive Formation was the Life Recycling Formation, which was said to have the function of reviving one’s life, so it was really amazing! But the condition required by this kind of Formation was too rigid, and what’s more, it had no attack function, so people seldom cultivated this kind of Formation, in the wartimes of the Antiquity. Therefore, it had been completely lost.
As for the Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation, it was a kind of Prohibition Formation, which had only one function: Anyone who entered the formation could not use their mana, except for the one who set the formation. So the powerful cultivators were most afraid of this formation!
Naturally, the condition required by this formation was not simple: First, sixteen people from the Devil Clan were needed, who must be from the same bloodline. Second, they must have the Spiritual Root of water and fire at the same time. Third, once these sixteen people mastered this formation, they would be like mortals, once they were outside the formation, and their mana would be completely lost!
Lyu Liang was stunned. The world was big enough for weird things to happen! There were actually people who were willing to accept this kind of abnormal conditions!
“If these sixteen people are scattered outside the formation, they will all be mortals that we can easily defeat. But if they gather together, it means that the Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation has been activated. When we enter the formation, they are cultivators and we are mortals… ”As he said this, Huangfu Gang’s expression became somber.
“If the person who enters the formation has no mana, but just the technique of refining the body, is there any hope of winning?” Lyu Liang was not panicky, but only had few expectations.
“Yes, brother Lyu seems to have Holy Soul Order, but if your Divine Body hasn’t formed yet, you can’t resist their attacks when you enter the formation! The sixteen people should have already cultivated this set of formation to a high level. Since they are gathered together all the time, it means that the Thousands of Devils Roaring Night Formation has already been activated, and they themselves are the Formation Key! If the sixteen people did not split up, the formation will last forever!” Huangfu Gang sighed, and did not seem to have a solution.
Seeing the bewilderment in Huangfu Gang’s face, Lyu Liang said softly, after pondering for a moment, “Give me a few days, I have the confidence to build the Divine Body, and then we will discuss the specific ways to break through and save them!”
Huangfu Gang was shocked at his words, and his eyes brightened immediately. He bowed his head, and replied in a low voice, “I will never forget your help, thank you!”
Lyu Liang waved his hand, saying, “You saved me from the Evil Blood Palace, so it is not necessary for us to say ‘thank you’ to each other!”
………………………………
Lyu Liang and the others had decided that, this time, they would scatter and try to find useful information within ten days in the Devil Realm, and after ten days, they would come to Lyu Liang to share the information.
After ten days, Zhu Yu and the others gradually came, yet they did not see Lyu Liang. Finally, they learned that Lyu Liang was in a closed door meditation in the Virtual Land. So they began to take this opportunity to share with each other, the information about Anye Clan.
In addition to the facts that Black had obtained by entering the Devil Realm, there was another one that had caught everyone’s attention. Many powerful figures at the Devil Emperor period from the Tianluo Clan and the Dawn Breaking Clan were on the periphery of the Anye Clan, and had formed an angle. If they reinforced Lyu Liang’s power, when he initiated a full attack, they could easily besiege the Anye Clan.
Now, since these ancient Devil Realm families could be among the best, their power should not be underestimated. The Huoxiao Clan had the help of the powerful formation of the Antiquity, and the other families were equally powerful as well!
Another month had passed, and Lyu Liang finally appeared in the Virtual Land. From the smile on his face, it seemed that he had succeeded!
Later, they began to discuss how to break into the Anye Clan.
First, they set a clear goal that they should first save people, and then retreat! As to whether they should launch an attack on the Anye Clan, it was not necessary to consider this, at the moment.
After an hour, the action plan was finalized, and they would still have three groups, but made some changes in the allocation of members.
The first group: Lyu Liang, Huangfu Gang, and Little Wu
Their task was to sneak into the core place of the Anye Clan, to draw the enemy’s attention and rescue people, at the same time.
The second group: Zhu Yu, Zheng Xuan and Nie Qingyun.
They were responsible for holding back the Tianluo Clan.
The third group: Yang Ying, Wen Ying, Liu Jiahao and Liu Jiawen.
They were responsible for dealing with the Dawn Breaking Clan.
The plan having been made and members allocated, they prepared to break into the Anye Clan.
………………………………
At this time, inside the main city of the Hell Fire Clan, the fifth largest clan of the Devil Realm, everything was peaceful, amid the usual bustle of the city.
But in the deep residence of the Hell Fire Clan, there were mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, revealing a scene of death!
“You… who are you? You dare to destroy the foundation of our clan when our powerful figures are absent… Hey!” He had hardly finished his words, when a sword light flashed and his head flew off, and was smashed. A masked man in black, was standing silently among the corpses, holding a long cyan sword in his hand.
“Oh, huh, if you ask me in this way, how can I answer you?” A delicate figure dressed in pink gauze, with heavy makeup, appeared at the entrance of the main hall of the Hall Fire Clan residence. She looked a bit shy and bashful, and from a distance, she could be called a beauty. However, seen at close range… it was actually a man…
At this time, nobody was alive in the Hell Fire Clan. The enchanting man sashayed across to the man in black. He put one hand on his shoulder and said adoringly, “My dear little swordie, every time I see you kill someone, I feel such a thrill… Oh, sweetheart, don’t point your sword at me. I am scared!”
“Stop talking with your drake voice, and take your hand away. The real enemy is coming!” The man’s voice was cold, and his eyes, which was visible, were actually a light blue color.
The enchanting man reluctantly removed his hand from the shoulder of the man, turned back and smiled, “He is so fast! It seems that my plan to find the clues of the Tai-Ah Sword will be ruined! Damn it!”
At the same time, a white light flashed, and a white-robed youth with a melancholy look appeared. He said softly, “You have violated the rules.”
“Oh, huh! Big joke! How can you allow only yourself to take the initiative to kill people, but I am not allowed to do so? Hey, even you, the noble Divine Envoy Milord, is personally involved, so it seems that your plan is marvelous! Oh, if we are not enemies, you will be my sweetheart, because of your good looks!” The enchanting man waved his fingers gracefully, and gave him a smoldering look.
“Escape or fight?” The words of the white-robed man were simple, but a terrible Sword Essence had appeared all over his body, “I did not expect to meet you here!”
“Ok, I actually sneaked out, and this time I will not fight with you! Little swordie, let’s go!” The enchanting man greeted him, and his figure became blurred. “The life-bonded divine weapons of that guy has appeared successively, and I don’t believe it is a so called coincidence! I will check it out in my own way. Anyway, I have been counterattacked by the Law of Heaven many times already!”
“For the last time, don’t use the word ‘swordie’!” The tone of the man in black, was full of anger, and after saying that, he disappeared too.
The white-robed man looked at the devastated Hell Fire Clan, and presented a blue-colored spiritual talisman in his hand, and said in a low voice, “The Evil Moon has entered the Mortal World. He seems to have found something. We must not let him destroy the reincarnation plan! As I expected, he will be counterattacked by the Law of Heaven in three days, and in the next ten days, his cultivation will just be at the Void Return level. Let’s use our power in the Devil Realm. If you can take this opportunity to get rid of a guardian, it will also be good! In addition, notify the Shenhuang milords too, after all, we can’t afford any defeat!”
After that, the blue-colored spiritual talisman flashed and then disappeared. The white-robed man raised his hand, and the horrifying scene suddenly became a clean and immaculate one. Then he sighed and disappeared.
………………………………
After a while, above the Devil Source Sea, two figures appeared, and it was the enchanting man and the man in black.
“You should quickly regain your power that has been weakened by the counterattack. If you still want to kill people, I can do it myself!” The words of the man in black still held no trace of affection.
The enchanting man spat out a large mouthful of blood, then smiled and said, “Do not worry, I won’t die. Don’t kill others, there is no need to kill them.”
The man in black turned back and asked, “So let’s go back?”
“It is not easy for me to enter the Mortal World, so before I am taken back, I still want to find more information! I have found something in the Hell Fire Clan. Although I did not find any clues about the Tai-Ah Sword, I learnt another thing which was interesting! So I will return to the Devil Realm again ,and recall the feeling of being a little Rogue Cultivator, oh oh!” The enchanting man laughed to the sky.
“You are crazy? Do you think that guy can’t find anything?” The man in black was obviously stunned, and his subsequent tone revealed an endless killing intent.
“As the saying in the mortal world goes, you can’t get the most useful information without sacrificing your most valuable thing! From now on, our covenant will be dismissed temporarily. Chances are rare. Now that I met one, I must have a try!” The enchanting man was serious now, and his eyes were bursting with unclear feelings.
“I get it, so I agree. But if you need me, I will appear as a repayment of your help.” After that, a bloody light emerged from the head of the man in black, and then disappeared in the air.
After a while, the enchanting man disappeared first, and the man in black looked into the far distance and said softly to himself, “Boss, long time no see…”
