Chapter 26 – 188 directly seconds, what’s there to say?
```
[You can freely manipulate formations and talismans.]
The moment Chen Huaian saw this prompt, a twisted smile gradually appeared on his face.
As a pay-to-win player, isn't the goal to crush the boss directly?
"Thunderfire Incineration Formation, no need to hide anymore, let it burn!"
Azure Cloud Realm.
A commanding voice echoed above the small house:
"Thunderfire Incineration Formation, activate!"
Buzz—!
"What is this!?" From Yefu Tian's perspective, purple formation runes appeared on the ground within a hundred-mile radius of the small house. Thunder and fire erupted from the formation runes, intertwining into a large circle that enclosed him and the small house.
A sense of threat arose in his heart, though not very strong.
Yefu Tian was a very cautious person; otherwise, he wouldn't have been hunted by righteous cultivators for so many years, escaping countless times despite severe injuries and still being able to wreak havoc today. Any other Demon Sect cultivator would likely have been torn to pieces by now.
In the past, even a slight sense of threat would have made him flee immediately.
But today was different.
The temptation before him was simply too great.
A Superior Grade Dantian!
If he could obtain this body, what would the bottleneck that had troubled him for years be? Even if he had to disperse his cultivation and start over, he felt it would be worth it! The spiritual energy in the Azure Cloud Realm was dwindling, and natural treasures were no longer enough to bring him a qualitative leap.
Fortune favors the bold.
Even if all the elders of the Azure Cloud Sect were present today, he would still take the gamble!
"Hmph! Does a mere formation think it can stop me?"
Yefu Tian's body was hidden in demonic energy, invisible but audible. The demonic energy surged, and a blood mist demon palm emerged, striking the roof of the small house with the force of Mount Tai. Sand and stones flew, grass and trees bowed low, and inside the small house, Li Qingran felt a chilling fear rise in her heart, making it difficult to breathe.
Boom—!
The demon palm struck the formation, causing the formation runes to flicker for a moment but showing no signs of breaking.
"Oh My God!" Chen Huaian, staring at his phone, was startled.
He was still figuring out how to drive the formation!
In the blink of an eye, the boss's attack had landed.
The old man was playing dirty!
"Then let's start with a few Immortal Grade Thunderfire Talismans!"
Chen Huaian tapped on the screen, and three talismans flew out from the door and walls of the small house, shooting towards the demonic energy cloud.
Yefu Tian paid no mind to the mere three talismans. He was focused on the fact that the formation withstood his full-force palm strike without breaking, indicating its high quality. In the Azure Cloud Realm, formation masters were the most mysterious, and if given a choice, he truly wouldn't want to contend with one.
Gathering all his strength for a second palm strike, Yefu Tian held nothing back, aiming for a swift victory.
His palm technique was a lower-grade earth-level skill—Blood Cloud Palm, which was guaranteed to hit and had the eerie ability to corrode spiritual power. Once hit, his opponent would grow weaker as their spiritual energy was continuously devoured by the demonic energy of the Blood Cloud Palm.
Naturally, it was also effective against formations.
In an instant, the three talismans flew close, emitting a bright golden light and roaring thunder.
"Something's wrong! This, this is Immortal Grade!" Yefu Tian's scalp tingled, but it was too late to change his move.
The Immortal Grade Thunderfire Talismans exploded in mid-air, spewing thunder and fire that enveloped Yefu Tian's blood cloud entirely.
At the same time, Chen Huaian figured out how to drive the formation. A keyboard popped up on his phone, and by pressing the English and Chinese combinations in the given order, the formation could be activated each time.
"Isn't this child's play for someone like me, Chen?"
In the past, Chen Huaian wouldn't have dared to say such a thing.
But ever since he learned acupuncture, his hands had become fast and steady.@@novelbin@@
If he participated in a rhythm game competition now, he might just outshine everyone and break a world record.
Tap tap tap!
Chen Huaian rapidly tapped on his phone screen.
[Come on, go go]
Boom!
Yefu Tian, who had just withstood the three Thunderfire Talismans, hadn't recovered before being struck in the face by a bolt of thunderfire from the formation.
[Nod is yes, shake is no~]
[To greet, say hello, hello hello, ha ha hello~]
Boom! Boom! Crackle!
As Chen Huaian's answering speed increased, so did the speed of the thunderfire's release. Although the Thunderfire Incineration Formation wasn't powerful enough to instantly kill Yefu Tian, the sheer volume was overwhelming! Soon, the black cloud of demonic energy thinned, revealing an old man in black, charred all over, with tattered clothes and white hair standing on end like a dandelion.
"Aow—! Enough! I want you dead!!!"
Yefu Tian had lived for over five hundred years and had never suffered such humiliation.
He no longer hid his form, leaping directly to the roof of the small house, extending his dark green hands forward.
A vast expanse of demonic energy rose around him, forming a giant visage with a blue face and fangs behind him. The visage opened its bloody mouth, mimicking Yefu Tian's movements as it pressed forward.
Boom—!
The entire Thunderfire Incineration Formation fully manifested under the terrifying pressure, with formation runes shattering inch by inch, struggling to hold on.
"Oh no, the boss has entered phase three and is using his ultimate move?!"
From Chen Huaian's perspective, Yefu Tian's health bar still had a third remaining. He couldn't help but chuckle and comment, "But this boss is really something, such flashy skills."
Having bought the package, he was sure to clear the level, so he wasn't worried at all, even having time to admire the boss's skin.
"The visage is solid, coordinating attacks, this is a Divine Transformation stage demon cultivator, and definitely not an ordinary one..." Inside the small house, Li Qingran clutched her clothes, her face full of anxiety, unable to help but remind, "Senior, demon cultivators are cunning, be careful if the opponent has any trump cards!"
At this moment, the senior had already taken action. If she went up, she would only be a hindrance, so she could only silently pray that the senior wouldn't get hurt in the battle against the demon cultivator. At the same time, a deep sense of powerlessness and guilt arose. If it weren't for the senior repairing her dantian, how could such a powerful demon sect expert be attracted? If she were a bit stronger, how could she hide like a mouse in the corner, watching the senior take risks while being unable to do anything?
The death of her parents had planted a seed of revenge in Li Qingran's heart.
The humiliation from her peers, seeing the coldness and warmth of the world, had forged a resilient heart.
At this moment, a belief in becoming stronger took root and sprouted in her heart.
The Heavenly Dao is unkind; to protect everything cherished, strength is needed at all times!
Boom—! The Thunderfire Incineration Formation shattered.
Yefu Tian hovered above the small house, the visage behind him crushing all the flying talismans, the exploding thunderfire merely tickling it: "Heh heh heh! Do you have any other tricks?! The Heavenly Demon Art cultivates the Four Great Corpse King Visages, I've spent five hundred years condensing the Yinggou Visage, indestructible and immensely powerful, breaking all techniques with sheer force, what good is your formation even if it's exquisite?"
"Is that so?"
A cold snort came from within the small house.
As Chen Huaian released the last talisman, the dark night sky unexpectedly turned a rusty color.
Ink clouds surged like waves, billowing and rolling.
Purple thunder like swords tore through the sky.
It was like a night when a storm was about to arrive.
Above Yefu Tian's head, the wind and clouds gathered, large thunderclouds amassed.
The Nine Suns Purple Thunder Talisman floated among the clouds, faintly visible, with a profound power gathering deep within the clouds.
Its might was like an abyss, its momentum like a flood.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth became violent.
Yefu Tian looked up at the sky, a chill running down his spine, a vague sense of foreboding arising.
In the Azure Cloud Sect, the cultivators watched the celestial phenomenon, their hearts shaken.
Within Evergreen Mountain, the red-haired zombie that had been suppressing Lu Changtian and the others suddenly shuddered, howling as it turned to flee, trying to escape the area covered by the thunderclouds.
Thunderfire Talismans, even if Immortal Grade, merely infused with spiritual energy to produce thunderfire.
But the Nine Suns Purple Thunder Talisman borrowed the power of heaven and earth, drawing a strand of divine thunder to eradicate evil.
"Condense—!"
Following the game's instructions, Chen Huaian traced the strokes on the talisman with his finger.
The might of heaven was awe-inspiring; if he didn't leave now, he would surely die!
As long as he left here, there would always be a chance to obtain a Superior Grade Dantian.
He just needed to continue lying low...
Without even glancing at Li Qingran in the small house, Yefu Tian leapt to flee.
The next moment.
Boom—!
A thunder dragon descended from the sky, blinding the world in an instant.
The falling thunder split into two beams, one chasing Yefu Tian, the other striking towards the east of Evergreen Mountain.
In an instant, amidst the earth-shaking tremors.
Chen Huaian saw on his phone that the boss Yefu Tian's health bar was instantly emptied.
He blew on his fingers, chuckling:
"Tsk tsk, this won't do, looking so impressive..."
"188 yuan and it's over in a flash, what's there to say?"
...
Within the Azure Cloud Sect.
Sect Master Wu Duantian gazed at the unusual celestial phenomenon, clearly sensing the intense spiritual energy fluctuations. There was a battle among cultivators within Evergreen Mountain, and one of them even caused heavenly thunder to strike. This kind of method was closely related to the mysterious cultivator who previously refined the Divine Pill...
"Zhao Lingtian."
He pondered for a moment, a glimmer of hope rising in his heart.
Then he turned to look at his personal disciple, who was lying pale on the bed, and spoke with a serious tone:
"This might be our last chance. This time, the two of us will go together. If we can get the help of that senior, your dantian might still be saved!"
...

[PS: Immortal Grade is just a classification of items, not representing items of an Immortal level, similar to how a song might be said to exist only in heaven, but it's ultimately composed by humans. Li Bai being called the Poet Immortal doesn't mean he's truly an Immortal. I didn't intend to explain this, but to avoid some readers getting caught up in details, please be informed.]
