Chapter 473: Chapter 292: Three Cities_2
Having said that, he turned into a streak of red light, breaking through the air like a meteor.
“This old demon head is still so cautious!”
Seeing this, Ren Baimei did not pursue, but instead said to Ren Weidao, “Weidao, be sure to be careful of this person in the future.”
Although both were in the Tribulation Realm, in the face of this Supreme Elder, Ren Weidao was still very humble, “Weidao understands!”
“Hmm!”
Ren Baimei nodded, then looked around and saw that the entanglement among the crowd had also gradually dissolved, and everyone went their separate ways.
No deaths or injuries were seen.
But that was normal, after all, who didn’t have some means as a powerhouse in the Tribulation Realm, who could be easily captured by others?
Moreover, now that they had returned to the mortal world, the first priority was to gather all the major atlases and comprehend the mechanics of the Heavenly Tribulation.
Compared to the achievement of the Heavenly Tribulation, Divine Martial Tao, what were hatreds and disputes, what were grudges and entanglements? They were utterly insignificant.
The Evil Path thought this way, and so did the Righteous Path.
Seeing Deng Yunpeng turn into a red light and hastily flee, he reached the sky in the blink of an eye.
Unexpectedly…
“Boom!”
The wind howled, the clouds scattered, and the world shook!
The Sky Dome Cloud Sea suddenly shattered, revealing a giant shadow that cut across the red lotus fire.
It was… a warship!
A colossal warship, a hundred thousand feet long and resembling a giant whale, tore through the clouds and came into view.
This warship, forged from unknown numerologies, resembling a giant whale swimming in the sky dome, was seamless with a tight structure. Its hull was inscribed with copious and complex seal characters, forming Talismans. These Talismans composed various prohibitions, ultimately forming an intimidating and massive Formation.
The entire warship was one entity, yet it had a myriad of intricate structures that gave a sense of precision and cohesion. Command Flags fluttered above the ship, Mana Altars stood tall, shimmering with Yuan Spirit Light, containing the power of Taoism, and the side of the hull bore a conspicuous mark that read “Wandao Celestial Patrol, Ship Number Jia Eleven”.
What was this?
Among the red lotus fire, Deng Yunpeng was startled and somewhat puzzled.
But confusion aside, seeing the opponent appear out of nowhere, blocking his way, as an old demon who had lived for years, he had no intention of passively waiting.
Instantly, the red lotus fire surged, transforming into a Red Lotus Giant Hand and launched a fierce attack, stirring the winds from all directions and shaking the void, showcasing the might of the Tribulation Realm.
However…
“Hum!!!”
As the warship moved, myriad magic artifacts rotated in unison, and the colossal hundred-thousand-feet-long hull lit up with dazzling brilliance. Countless seal characters, Talismans, and arrays activated in combination. Command Flags fluttered wildly, Mana Altars glowed vividly, and in an instant, they formed a Sword Qi. A vast expanse of Sword Qi, with the power to split the universe, slashed towards the red lotus fire.
“Boom!!!”
As the Sword Qi was unleashed, the red lotus shattered. Amidst the scattering red glow and light, a figure was sent tumbling backwards.
It was Deng Yunpeng.
One could see the old demon fall back, swiftly drawing a distance of a hundred feet, his red eyebrows deeply furrowed, his eyes filled with shock and doubt.
What was this?
It had actually broken through his palm attack head-on?
Although he hadn’t used his full strength, his cultivation in the Tribulation Realm was evident. Even a quick palm strike from him could cause severe injuries or even annihilate those at the pinnacle of Divine Intent.
How could this mechanical creation, resembling a ship, emit such fierce Sword Qi and directly shatter his palm technique?
This…
Deng Yunpeng’s heart was filled with uncertainty, and he dared not act recklessly for the moment.
Just then, more startling changes occurred in all directions.
“Rumble, rumble!”
The winds and clouds scattered in alarm, and the sun and moon lost their light.
Across the four corners of the sky, the clouds broke apart and one warship after another appeared out of nowhere. Some emitted ten-thousand-foot Sword Qi, others unleashed myriad thunderous strikes, and some revealed the Clear Spirit Treasure Tree and the Azure Dragon’s Shadow. Some raised the Qilin Great Seal as if to suppress the sky…
In total, twenty-eight colossal warships appeared, each displaying their Divine Powers and forming a siege on all sides to cut off the strong cultivators in every direction.
The group of Tribulation Realm powerhouses, who had just ceased battling and withdrawn, found their paths blocked by the suddenly appearing Celestial Patrol Warships from all sides. They each collided with the blockade, then retreated with shock and anger.
“What is this?”
“Who are these insignificant beings that dare to scheme against us?”
“Could it be a trap set by the Righteous Path?”
“It must be some nefarious means employed by the Demon Sect!”
“This…”
The people blocked and pushed back, looking at the warships that had formed an enclosure on all sides, were filled with shock and doubt in their eyes.
Ren Baimei’s brow was also deeply furrowed.
He could see clearly that these mechanical constructs with astonishing power did not belong to any side of the Righteous Path or Evil Path. Both the upholders of the Righteous Path and the Demon Sect were within their scope of interception.
If they were neither of the Righteous Path nor the Evil Path, who were these sacred beings who dared to so blatantly defy the world and intercept the strong cultivators returning from the Temple of War God?
What had happened in the outside world during their thousand years in the Temple of War God to bring about such a turn of events?
His heart was filled with astonishment and incomprehension.
But despite the shock and doubts, this formation, although terrorizing, was not enough to intimidate the strong cultivators in the Tribulation Realm.
“Playing tricks and concealing yourself, you think you can block my path!” roared Deng Yunpeng, the most hot-tempered, as the red lotus fire reappeared, instantly turning into a fiery blaze that scorched the clouds, and he prepared to forcefully break through.
Unexpectedly…
“Crack, crack, crack!”
“Rumble, rumble!!!”
The warship, resembling a giant whale, suddenly disassembled. Countless magic artifacts separated and quickly reassembled. In a flash, the Celestial Patrol Warship transformed into a towering pillar, thunderously plummeting down and plunging into the sea.
In the blink of an eye, the twenty-eight warships that had surrounded them turned into twenty-eight Seasuppressing Heavenpropping Pillars. Using a formation of Seven Stars and the twenty-eight celestial mansions, they formed a Great Array that sealed off heaven and earth from afar.
“This…!”
Ren Baimei’s pupils constricted as he looked at the Seasuppressing Heavenpropping Pillars surrounding him on all sides. He felt a hint of familiarity.
That was… the War God’s Atlas!
Yes, the War God’s Atlas. The way it sealed off the Prime Spirit of Heaven and Earth was somewhat similar to the War God’s Atlas he was familiar with.
The War God’s Atlas, which sealed off the Prime Spirit of Heaven and Earth, could not only produce Spiritual Objects but also sustain the Divine Martial Great Array.
