Chapter 752 - 751 Ancestor of the Peach Trees
Those peach trees had grown to towering heights, obscuring the sun and connecting together to shield the entire firmament from view.
Within the pink mist, some people bled from seven orifices, some exploded and died on the spot, and others lost their clarity of mind and began to slaughter each other.
"Let’s join forces to break this formation, or none of us will be able to leave," the leader of the Blood-colored Guards shouted.
Everyone was enchanted by the woman’s appearance and temperament.
When everyone came to their senses, they did not dare to hesitate. They all used their strongest attacks to strike at the formation.
"Blood Demon Palm,
Myriad Treasures Strike,
Netherworld Ghost Claw,
Fierce Lion’s Roar,
........."
In an instant, countless streams of Spiritual Energy attacked the formation.
Nobody dared to hold back.
Just then, as if provoked, the peach trees also erupted in violent movement.
Flailing their branches with gaping bloody maws, they devoured all the attacking techniques and Spiritual Energy.
"This," everyone was completely stunned by this scene.
"How do we fight this?"
"Since it’s a formation, there must be a pivotal point. Everyone, hurry and search for it," the leader of the Blood-colored Guards urgently called out.
While talking, a few more people died violently.
In the blink of an eye, fewer than twenty people remained alive within the formation.
Everyone quickly began searching. However, at that moment, the peach trees in the sky seemed to go mad, thrashing their branches and creating a violent windstorm.
Numerous wind blades swooped down from above.
Several people failed to dodge in time and were shredded to death by the wind blades.
"We can’t hold on," the crowd was clearly in a panic, attacking wildly within the formation.
Xu Zimei sat cross-legged to one side, a slight distance away.
The Heaven Expanse Astrolabe he had obtained at Heaven Expanse Holy Mountain orbited around him.
This Heaven Expanse Astrolabe could deduce any formation in the world; Xu Zimei had seldom used it since he acquired it.
But now, faced with this kind of formation, it was a good time to try it out.
formations ultimately rely on Bagua and Ying-yang; they are arranged according to the natural attributes of heaven and earth.
They operate on a principle of mutual generation and mutual conquest, similar to the Five Elements.
At this moment, countless stars beamed down into Xu Zimei’s mind; the composition of these peach trees indisputably involved wood and wind.
As Xu Zimei’s deductions reached their peak, the Heaven Expanse Astrolabe spun faster and faster until it was nearly invisible to the naked eye.
The next moment, Xu Zimei took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and lightly tapped a point inside the formation with his right hand.
As if touching the heart of the formation, the entire formation began to wobble.
A droplet of fire flowed along Xu Zimei’s fingertip into the formation, and in an instant, all of the formations began to burn.
All of the Peach Grove served as fuel.
The woman in the sky saw this scene, and a hint of surprise flickered in her eyes as she gestured with her right hand.
A multicolored droplet of water fell from the adjacent waterfall.
Instantly, all of the fire was submerged, and the formation became even more powerful.
"Great, time to deduce again," Xu Zimei shook his head slightly.
It was evident that the woman’s mastery of formations was profound, to the point where it could be said she could create a formation in a single glance.
That’s just the way formations are.
You set up a formation, I break it.
The people within the Formation were now reduced to a mere tenth of their original number, only three to five individuals remained, and these people had long since lost any hope of fighting.
This included the leader of the Blood-colored Guards.
They all knelt down and started to beg for mercy.
"Fairy, please spare our lives! We didn’t mean to disturb you intentionally. It’s just that we happened to see the Immortal Island appear above the Endless Heaven Sea and came up to explore."
"Has the island touched ground again?" the woman above muttered to herself.
"It seems another ten thousand years have passed."
Immediately afterward, her gaze turned cold as she said indifferently, "You must have forced your way in. There are pair of Kyu guardians at the entrance, how did you get in?
Since you’re here, you might as well stay."
With another wave of her right hand, the entire Formation started to shrink.
As the Formation shrank, the area in which the people could move became smaller and smaller.
In the end, with a clench of her right hand, the Formation shrank into the size of a small ball and then exploded.
The whole Peach Grove shook because of it, and the figure of the woman slowly descended.
Looking inside the Formation, where not even ashes of the people remained, she then barefooted stepped onto the ground, her gaze deep as she looked into the distance.
"Your method of hospitality does break one’s heart," a voice suddenly rose from the side.
"Is it not a joy to have friends come from afar?"
"Who?" Hearing someone speaking, the woman abruptly lifted her head.
To her side, on the branch of a peach tree, a youth dressed in a purple robe was nonchalantly leaning back.
He had a Curved Blade slung across his back and had somewhat of a dissipated air about him.
"A fish slipping through the net," the woman let out a cold snort as the bells on her wrist rang again.
The peach blossoms in the sky all surged toward Xu Zimei.
Xu Zimei shook his head with a smile, and drew his Tyrant Shadow from its sheath.
With a clang, countless Blade Qi surged through the Peach Grove, shattering the peach blossoms into dust.
"I’d advise you not to act. The Peach Grove is so beautiful, I really wouldn’t want to destroy it," Xu Zimei said calmly.
"What do you want?" the woman asked indifferently.
"Just curious, I came to look around the Immortal Island. I mean no harm," Xu Zimei said.
"Now that you’ve seen it, you can go, right?" the woman said.
"I haven’t yet visited behind the waterfall," Xu Zimei pointed towards the back of the rainbow-colored waterfall.
His divine consciousness spread out towards it, as if it were being devoured by something, he could sense a terrifying aura lurking there.
"Stop here, or I won’t mind expending more energy to keep you here," the woman stated with her eyes narrowed sharply.
"I’m the type that knows there is a tiger on the mountain, yet still walks toward the mountain," Xu Zimei smiled.
He took a step into the void, flying directly towards the area behind the waterfall.
Seeing Xu Zimei depart, the woman was not in a hurry.
She slowly took out the Flute from her waist.
As she began to play, the moment the melody resonated, a huge shadow of a peach tree appeared behind her.
It was as if she had been born from this peach tree.
This was the first peach tree to appear in this world, its primordial aura permeated the surroundings.
"Lovely are the peach trees, resplendent with their flowers," the woman sang softly.
Then, the shadow of the peach tree merged with the woman, directly stepping through the Endless Void to block Xu Zimei’s path.
The shadow gradually materialized, transforming into a real peach tree.
It was like a monster in height, nearly spanning one quarter of the Immortal Island, towering a kilometer high.
Its branches were lush with leaves, hung with countless peaches, each blossom carrying an aura of primordial power.
"Remarkable," Xu Zimei remarked feeling the breath within, chuckling lightly.
"The Ancestor of the Peach Trees that has survived for myriad years, I never imagined it would still be alive."
