Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 716: Beginning

Li Ruiming accompanied Meng Zhang in a long-winded conversation, just waiting for the Fourth Rank great formation that had been pre-arranged to accumulate enough power.

The Beast King Howling Heaven Great Formation continuously extracted the spiritual energy from the Third Rank spirit vein without any reservation, not caring whether it was depleting its resources.

Additionally, disciples from the New Beast King Mountain who were in charge of the great formation kept throwing various Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects into it. These objects, including pieces of spirit marrow, were quickly consumed.

In the past, Meng Zhang, who was only at the Foundation Building stage, risked his life to venture deep into the Deadly Sea of Sand to obtain a piece of spirit marrow, hoping to use it to assist in breaking through to the Gold Core stage. But in the Primordial Spirit True Monarch's struggle, such treasures were considered ordinary consumables.

The power accumulated in the great formation was almost sufficient. The two Primordial Spirit True Monarchs from New Beast King Mountain, who had been cooperating for a long time, understood each other's thoughts with just a glance and acted in perfect harmony.

Li Ruiming raised the staff in his hand, conjuring a scene of countless beasts rushing forward, fiercely pouncing on Meng Zhang.

Qiu Wanli roared angrily, his body rapidly swelling as he transformed into a giant, striding towards Meng Zhang and swinging his huge hands to fiercely grasp at Meng Zhang's body.

Meng Zhang kept retreating, avoiding the charging Qiu Wanli True Monarch. Then, with the index and middle fingers of both hands together, he shot out a black and a white sword energy.

The two sword energies merged into a sharp black-and-white sword Qi, slashing directly at Li Ruiming True Monarch.

Elder Beast Fury sighed deeply, his wrinkled face showing a bitter expression.

He straightened his back with some effort and formed a seal with his hands. The power that had been accumulating in the Beast King Howling Heaven Great Formation below was immediately drawn out by him.

A huge and ferocious beast appeared above Elder Beast Fury's head. He pointed towards Meng Zhang, and the giant beast rushed towards him with an imposing aura.

This was a strike that had been building up in the Fourth Rank great formation. Even a Mid-Primordial Spirit cultivator would not be able to withstand it head-on.

Meng Zhang had only recently achieved the Primordial Spirit stage, and if hit by this attack, he would lose at least half his life even if he didn't die.

Qiu Wanli True Monarch suddenly lunged forward, blocking Meng Zhang's escape route, forcing him to face the attack head-on.

The ferocious beast rushed towards Meng Zhang, who couldn't evade in time. He could only release his sword energy in a futile attempt to block it. The two Primordial Spirit True Monarchs from New Beast King Mountain were certain of their victory.

Suddenly, an unexpected change occurred. As the giant beast approached Meng Zhang, it unexpectedly made a sharp turn and pounced fiercely towards Qiu Wanli True Monarch, right beside his body.

With such a sudden change happening at such a close distance, even experienced Primordial Spirit True Monarchs couldn't evade it, let alone defend against it with all their strength.

Qiu Wanli True Monarch was heavily struck by the beast, and his protective spell was easily shattered, sending him flying out.

Meng Zhang, who had been preparing to defend against the beast's attack, unleashed his Great Divine Ability - Twin Forms Towards Heaven Sword. Black-and-white sword Qi mixed together like raindrops, shooting towards Qiu Wanli True Monarch.

"You..." Li Ruiming True Monarch pointed at Elder Beast Fury, his face filled with disbelief, too angry to speak.

Although extremely furious at Elder Beast Fury's treacherous act, Li Ruiming True Monarch did not lose his composure. He knew it wasn't the time to get entangled in trivial matters. What mattered most now was regaining control of the Fourth Rank Formation to take the initiative back.

Fortunately, Li Ruiming True Monarch had always been cautious of Elder Beast Fury. After Elder Beast Fury set up the great formation, Li Ruiming True Monarch kept him close by his side, while the disciples below were tasked with controlling the great formation.

Currently, the disciples of New Beast King Mountain controlled the great formation, and they were the ones who supplied power to Elder Beast Fury earlier. Now, all they needed to do was to stop providing power and use the great formation's energy to suppress Elder Beast Fury, giving them a chance to turn the tide of the battle.

Li Ruiming True Monarch had a way to maintain communication with his subordinates without speaking. With a single thought, he conveyed his orders to the disciples in charge of the great formation.

Elder Beast Fury was not fooled by Li Ruiming True Monarch's actions. The Beast King Howling Heaven Great Formation was a secret formation of Beast King Mountain. These traitors had only learned a small part of it. The true essence of the formation was a closely guarded secret within Beast King Mountain, and only individuals like Elder Beast Fury had the qualifications to learn it.

Elder Beast Fury let out a series of long howls, the pitch and intensity changing rapidly. The entire Fourth Rank great formation changed accordingly.

A mist rose within the great formation, concealing Elder Beast Fury's figure. The mist continued to spread, and Meng Zhang, who was chasing Qiu Wanli True Monarch, disappeared into it, along with Qiu Wanli True Monarch. Several light screens descended from the sky, forming a cage that trapped Li Ruiming True Monarch securely.

Sensing a sense of impending doom, Li Ruiming True Monarch held nothing back and unleashed his true power, jumping onto the snake-like staff in his hand, which transformed into a massive serpent.

Li Ruiming True Monarch stood on the head of the serpent, directing it to charge forward.

After breaking through the light screen and dispelling the thick mist around him, Li Ruiming True Monarch appeared in front of Elder Beast Fury.

Just a moment ago, Elder Beast Fury had directly activated the power of the great formation, causing all the disciples of New Beast King Mountain in charge of the formation to be killed by the backlash.

Seeing Li Ruiming True Monarch break through the blockade of the great formation and appear in front of him, Elder Beast Fury remained calm. A trace of abnormal flush crossed his face. Then, the weakness he had previously shown completely disappeared, replaced by an exceedingly powerful aura.

Despite his injuries, Elder Beast Fury was empowered by the force of the great formation and had a cultivation base one realm higher than his opponent. In this face-to-face confrontation, he had no fear.

While Elder Beast Fury and Li Ruiming True Monarch engaged in their intense battle, Meng Zhang had completely gained the upper hand against Qiu Wanli True Monarch.

Meng Zhang's head radiated a bright light as the Sun and Moon Divine Light, like raindrops, showered down on Qiu Wanli True Monarch.

The sharp and formidable black-and-white sword energy was as powerful as a Fourth Rank flying sword, overwhelming Qiu Wanli True Monarch's defenses.

The sudden assault by Elder Beast Fury a moment ago had almost cost Qiu Wanli True Monarch half of his life when he was completely unprepared.

Now heavily injured, he couldn't even exert half of his strength. Faced with Meng Zhang's fierce attacks, he could only defend himself without the ability to fight back.
