“Kaboom!!!”
Above Juyongguan in Yan City, a huge noise resounded in the sky. The space 1,000 miles around here contracted, and when it condensed to its limits, it exploded violently.
A white light spot quickly expanded and spread to the whole sky, starting from Yan City, and covered hundreds of miles across. It seemed that it would reach places that were 10,000 miles away.
The phantom array could no longer hold the explosion. It was falling apart. Even if the explosion wouldn’t affect the earth, it would definitely awaken those ordinary people.
“Ugh!!”
Blood Demon King roared. He took the opportunity when Emperor Ying Zheng was dedicated to fighting. Blood Demon King then got rid of the Imperatorial Power, followed by Zhao Yun and Lyu Bu.
The three cast spells to help other people get back to normal so that they could work together to stabilize the array.
“That didn’t help. They are too powerful to be resisted. The explosion will inevitably affect the area under us.”
“Do you have any ideas?” Blood Demon King asked.
“This fluctuation, I guess, will affect at least one-third of Hua Xia’s territory. If we try our best, we’ll have a chance to counter half of it, but we’ll have to pay a huge price for it.”
“Is it that serious?”
Other people were so shocked that their leaking sweat soaked their shirts. If they let the fluctuation out, one-third of Hua Xia’s sky would be affected, which would cause numerous air crashes.
Zhao Yun shook his head and said, “That’s not the worst situation. We still have no idea if the explosion would affect those land dwellers or not. Should they fall on the ground, the whole city of Yan would be blasted into ruins.
“Then the spiritual strength fluctuation would expand over the country. We know clearly what that means. We should decide what to do as fast as we can!”
“That is…”
Everyone gritted their teeth, but they had no better way to resolve the matter. If they did what General Zilong said, Lyu Bu and Blood Demon King would have to pay a heavy price for it.
That was what other people didn’t want to happen, but if they didn’t do that, they wouldn’t be able to get the spiritual strength under control.
“Everyone! I have an idea!”
Just then, Yu Wude yelled out loud. As other people looked at him, he explained, “I’ve got an array platform of the Third Divine Array from the remote ancient times. We can use it to keep the phantom array together first.
“Yiyi and I need support from others to build the pre-celestial Eight Diagram Tactics. I’m not very familiar with it, but I think I should give it a try. That’s our best choice now.
“Should I fail, you can then resist the rest of the explosion together. I think that would cost you less.”
Everyone heard his words. After full consideration, they found that this was indeed the best choice they had. Seeing other people nodding, Yu Wude summoned the array platform and covered the sky with the Third Divine Array.
Then he flew with Shangguan Yiyi on their swords. They flew here and there in the sky to draw the array lines around the suppressed spiritual strength field.
Although the Third Divine Array was powerful enough, it was, after all, incomplete. People could see the energy field gradually expanding, and it was just a matter of time for it to rip the array up.
“Tai chi generated yin and yang, which generated the Four Images, which generate the Eight Diagrams. Qian was the first one, Dui was the second, Li was the third, Zhen was the fourth, Xun was the fifth, Kan was the sixth, Gen was the seventh, and Kun, the ninth.”
“Of all the symbols of the Eight Diagrams: Kun, three strokes; Qian, six broken lines; Zhen stood like a pot; Gen looked like a flipped bowl; the second line of Li is broken; the second line of Kan is complete; the upper line of Dui is incomplete; the lower line of Xu is broken.”
“Heaven and earth are positioned, the mountains and the marshes are united, the thunder and wind nourish each other, and the fire and water are incompatible. The eight diagrams differ from each other. If you remember the past, you’ll future shall be bright; if you try to peek into your future, you shall be punished. That’s the prohibition of life.”
The two continue to chant the Eight Diagrams mantra, and at the same time, they pinched their fingers to calculate. They failed to figure out how to solve the problem. Later, they looked at each other in the eyes and started to build the post-celestial Eight Diagram Tactics.
They used pre-celestial factors supplemented by the post-celestial array. Finally, they found a proper spot and started to cast spells to change the Tao principle in this area.
“Buzz, buzz…”
Between the heavens and the earth, the huge Eight Diagram Tactics figure was revealed. Yu Wude and Shangguan Yiyi were at either end of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish. They hastily chanted the spells and made six other duplicates of themselves to occupy the eight directions on the Eight Diagrams.
“Help them now!”
As Zhao Yun shouted, other people projected their spiritual strength onto the real body of the two of them. They were doing their best to help them.
“Change of the Time!”
As Yu Wude yelled out, the two words, Qian and Kun, on the Eight Diagrams shined a blinding light. The principle of time in this area was changed. It was going way slower than before. The expansion of the spiritual strength field was slowed down to be almost static.
“The east wind rises, the Great Marsh comes out; thunder and fire move, all creatures and mountains are shaken!”
Then he chanted the spells with Shangguan Yiyi at the same time. The huge Eight Diagram Tactics slowly rotated, and the eight words on it lit up. Those talismanic words on it started shining as well.
Between heaven and earth, a violent storm arose and dispersed the killing aura of the spiritual strength field. Then a destroying power fell down, followed by the rumbling of doom thunder. Fireballs rained like a shower. Numerous woods then surrounded the field.
Millions of stones emerged from the void and hit the field with other powers. As Yu Wude’s sword pointed out, a flood was released. Then he moved his finger and brought the thunder fire toward him.
Shangguan Yiyi crossed her finger to make a seal. As she pointed out, the power of wind, mountains, and woods were strengthened. They were constantly surging into the spiritual strength field.
“Boom!”
The spiritual strength field was being eroded. Within a short period, it had been totally devoured by the Eight Diagrams. Over some of the residue spiritual strength, people found in surprise that the two were still fighting under the influence of the changed time.
“Phew!”
“Uh!”
Yu Wude and Shangguan Yiyi couldn’t hold it anymore, and the array dissipated in an instant, then they both coughed up blood and flew backward. Their arrays collapsed in the wind, and the time in this area returned to normal speed.
“Bang!”
“Puff!”
This great fight finally ended. Wang Bugui punched Ying Zheng’s belly. And Ying Zheng’s sword, Conqueror of Qin, penetrated Wang Bugui’s chest.
“Kaboom!”
Two formidable powers exploded, which were from their last blows. There was no killing intent in them, but they were still quite scary. The airwaves were sent out from Hua Xia and affected the rest of the world.
“Hmm?”
In a castle, Field opened his eyes suddenly. He frowned and looked toward the east. Nattiavelle was standing next to him and joined him to trace the abnormal phenomena with magic.
“Hmph!”
As soon as their minds arrived in Hua Xia, a tall and imposing emperor showed up in front of them. His voice and eyes made the two very scared.
Their bodies were shaking. They took two steps backward and nearly felt down on their knees. When they stopped using the magic, they already had blood at the corner of their mouths.
“What happen to you?”
It was Augustus that was talking.
“You were tracing something. Who hurt you?”
That question came from an acquaintance of the Blood Moon Hunters, Lambert!
His body had been smashed and his soul had been broken. It was a miracle that instead of dying, he seemed to have grown more powerful than ever.
“Did you feel it?” Nattiavelle turned around and asked.
“I’m sure it’s the aura of human beings, but I felt the same thing in him as I felt in Dracula. There were parts of him that were even more powerful than Dracula!” Field wiped the blood on his mouth and said slowly.
“He’s really powerful. I’m concerned that another monster has come to the world,” said Nattiavelle with worry.
“That person is stronger than Wang Xuanming. Moreover, I felt the aura of another man that was familiar to me…” Field was still looking into the east and recalling.
“What are you talking about?”
Lambert and Augustus were puzzled and wondered what the couple had just experienced.
“Stop asking and be baptized. The king didn’t resurrect you to have you stand here and do nothing,” Nattiavelle warned the two.
“We are being baptized every day, and we’re now as powerful as the old Field,” Lambert said with a laugh.
“Yes, if I meet those guys again, I’ll tear them to pieces!” Augustus seemed malicious.
A special aura in them had significantly promoted their strength.
“Hmph! You’ve grown stronger, but so has Field! He’s now much more powerful than Clara!” Nattiavelle argued.
Augustus and Lambert stopped arguing and forced a smile. They knew they had to be very cautious when talking about Field, or Nattiavelle would definitely scold them.
“Save that nonsense for yourself and do your job! Don’t waste your time here,” said Field, squinting his eyes.
“We’re not wasting the time here, those people recently…”
Augustus hastily tried to explain but Field didn’t listen. He turned back and left. It seemed that he didn’t care if the meeting was over or not.
“Field!”
Nattiavelle wouldn’t stay here since Field had left. She called his name and caught up with him. She tried to hold his arms quite a few times on the way, only to be pushed away by the cold man.
But she still didn’t give up. The two pushed and pulled each other, laughing and walking away.
