Chapter 377 - 232: Wandering Dragon God
It would be of great benefit to Chi Yu.
However, her Realm in the Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture was too low. She would often be startled awake by the restlessness in her bloodline not long after falling into a peaceful sleep.
Without waiting for Chi Yu to respond, Yang Jing placed his hand on her forehead. He first used his True Martial Demon Vibration Power to suppress the restlessness in her bloodline before starting to consume Spirit Stones to upgrade her Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture.
As a massive amount of Spirit Stones was consumed, Chi Yu’s Realm in the Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture began to climb rapidly.
[Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture: Peak of Perfection]
A new Talent appeared on Chi Yu’s status panel.
[Wandering Dragon God]
With the blessing of this Talent, Chi Yu’s sickly complexion immediately improved, a hint of color returning to her face.
She managed to force a smile.
"Thank you, Master."
Chi Yu regretted not having cultivated diligently before. To this day, her Cultivation was still only Qi Cultivation, and she felt useless for anything other than holding her master back.
After consuming a layer of Chi Yu’s cultivation, a continuous stream of knowledge about the Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture flooded back into Yang Jing’s sea of consciousness.
Furthermore, the Wandering Dragon God Talent caused boundless light to rise within Yang Jing’s sea of consciousness. An azure-blue Divine Dragon let out a long cry as it swam forth, enveloping and protecting Yang Jing’s Primordial Spirit.
Yang Jing suddenly felt a new sense of security, as if he had put on a suit of armor.
Moreover, he suddenly had a great epiphany regarding the Grotto God Spirit Chapter, a text he had occasionally read in the past with little to show for it.
The Spiritual Essence within his Magical Power suddenly began to soar, flourishing vigorously.
Yang Jing immediately closed his eyes and focused his qi, circulating the Five Elements Wheel in his Dantian to nurture and stimulate this Spiritual Essence.
’So this is Dharma Spirit?’
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Just as he was about to stand, he heard a faint snore from his lap. After mastering the Five Dragons Hibernation Scripture, Chi Yu had immediately fallen into the deepest of slumbers.
Her small nostrils flared gently, and her eyelashes trembled.
After being trapped in the Nine Nether Profound Separation World Creation Array, Chi Yu hadn’t had a sound sleep in a very long time.
Yang Jing carefully picked her up and walked out of the Quiet Chamber to take her back to her room. He had just laid Chi Yu on her small bed and covered her with a blanket when he raised his head alertly.
"The Celestial Demons are here."
He turned to Yellow Foot.
"Yellow Foot, take good care of your senior sister."
Yellow Foot nodded emphatically.
Yang Jing took one last look at Chi Yu’s sleeping face, then used Earth Escape and vanished from the room without a sound.
The next moment, he appeared in the sky, gazing into the distance through the Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Array.
"Master."
Seeing that Yang Jing had finished his seclusion, Yinjiao immediately flew to his side on his sword.
"The Celestial Demons are coming," Yang Jing said, his expression grave.
"Alert all the soldiers. Full alert!"
After obtaining the True Martial Demon Vibration Talent, his sensitivity to Demon Cultivators and Celestial Demons had reached a new level. The distant Celestial Demons appeared in his senses like a prairie fire, and they were approaching rapidly.
Yinjiao nodded and flew over to several messengers. They carried Array Banners that could transmit military orders directly through the Array.
The next moment, all the Arrays fully activated their formations. Dazzling Defensive Spirit Light shot into the sky. The Array Masters of each Array hastily inspected their formations, checking the status of each Spiritual Acupoint and the Spiritual Qi channeling of the Array Banners.
More than two thousand soldiers united as one. A murderous aura condensed above the Arrays, even dispelling the wisps of Demonic Qi in the sky above.
In ancient times, this aura was called Military Qi. Before great battles, those with the knowledge would often observe this Military Qi by gazing at the qi of the formation to judge the enemy’s situation.
Trapped within the Nine Nether Profound Separation Demon Extermination Array with no path of retreat, all the soldiers of the Demon Suppression Army cast aside their distracting thoughts. United as one, their only thought was to survive.
’The army’s morale is high.’
About a quarter of an hour later, a deep mass of Demon Clouds suddenly appeared on the northern horizon.
Countless Flying Boats formed a massive fleet, their Qi Mechanisms linked together to form this cloud.
Yinjiao’s eyes swept rapidly over the fleet, counting the number of vessels.
"Thirty-seven."
He said to his master, Yang Jing, struggling to remain calm.
Yang Jing nodded. He had actually already counted the number of Demon Sect Flying Boats. After all, the roiling Demonic Qi circulating within the Flying Boats’ Qi Veins was far too conspicuous.
Soon, all the Demon Sect Flying Boats flew to a stop three thousand zhang from the Array. A Flying Boat equipped with the Heaven and Earth Collapsing Array immediately began to activate its Array.
Rolling shockwaves traveled through the ground, heading toward the Grand Array.
However, due to the bedrock underground, the effect of the Heaven and Earth Collapsing Array was very limited, only causing two Tier Two Arrays to show faint signs of instability.
With urgent adjustments from the Array Masters, the Arrays immediately stabilized.
The commander of the Demon Sect’s army hadn’t expected the Array’s effect to be so poor and could only force the army to proceed to the next step.
One by one, Impact Boats were released from the ship bays, transporting large numbers of Demon Cultivators down from the vessels.
Fifteen Flying Boats advanced directly, providing cover for the one equipped with the Heaven-shattering Earth-collapse Array as they closed in on the Grand Array.
Yang Jing activated his Grotto Dark Dharma Eye. His focus wasn’t on the Flying Boats, but on the Demon Cultivators who were being offloaded.
He could see that most of these Demon Cultivators were carrying huge Array Banners on their shoulders. The banners radiated a dense Demonic Qi, clearly indicating they were no ordinary items.
"They’re going to set up an Array for Demon Summoning," he said to Yinjiao.
Yang Jing had witnessed Demon Cultivators use a Demon Array for Demon Summoning twice before—once for the Three Corpses Bone Demon and once for the Red Evil True Demon—so he recognized it as a Demon Summoning Array at a glance.
Great Celestial Demons of the Golden Core Realm couldn’t pass through the cracks in the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane to enter the Demon Realm. However, the Demon Cultivators on the Flying Boats could simply use an Array for Demon Summoning after entering the Nine Nether Profound Separation Array.
Although there were no Golden Core Realm Demon Cultivators in the Flying Ship Fleet, there were countless Demon Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Ordinary Tier Two Celestial Demons would be nothing but cannon fodder on this battlefield. Therefore, they must be trying to summon Tier Three Great Celestial Demons.
"Master, should we activate the Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Divine Light?" Yinjiao immediately suggested.
"No," Yang Jing said. "The Demon Sect’s Grand Arrays are not like those of our Six Sects, which can’t be moved once placed on a Spiritual Acupoint. If we attack now, they can simply move to evade. We’ll wait until most of their Spiritual Acupoints are set up before we attack."
"Have the Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Divine Light continue to build up power. The other Arrays will attack the incoming Flying Boats."
’The attack range of the Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Divine Light is too narrow. Attacking now would only destroy a few Array Banners, doing very limited damage to the fleet.’
’This method of using a Grand Array for Demon Summoning can’t call upon a specific Celestial Demon. Therefore, they won’t be able to summon the favored demons of the Instantaneous Demon Venerable to the battlefield.’
’Great Celestial Demons are no less intelligent than Cultivators. Those Celestial Demons not under the Demon Sect’s command, upon being summoned to such a scene, would surely be unwilling to act as cannon fodder for the Demon Cultivators and charge a Tier Three Array.’
’That’s why these Demon Cultivators are summoning the Celestial Demons so close to our Grand Array.’
’This way, when the Celestial Demons answer the summons, they’ll be trapped within the fleet with nowhere to run. They can only be forced and herded by the fleet to assault the Grand Array.’
"Yes, sir!"
Yinjiao ordered Lu Yuliang, who was controlling the Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Array, to begin charging the Array.
The Tier Two Arrays flickered with Spiritual Light as they activated various Restrictions, attacking the incoming Demon Sect Flying Boats. In an instant, a fierce exchange of offense and defense erupted between the two sides.
Yang Jing kept his gaze fixed on the Demon Cultivators. Soon, those shouldering the Array Banners disembarked from the Impact Boats and took their positions, still carrying the banners on their backs.
Because they were within the Demon Realm created by the Nine Nether Profound Separation Demon Extermination Array, they didn’t even need to find Spiritual Acupoints to activate their array for Demon Summoning. They only needed to stand in sequence and let the Array Banners automatically draw in the Demonic Qi to open a Mixed Cave.
The Demonic Qi within the Array Banners began to link together, finally coalescing at a single point, faintly threatening to open the Mixed Cave for the Celestial Demons to enter.
"Now! Attack the second Grand Array from the left first!" Yang Jing commanded directly.
The Demon Cultivators had brought a total of nine Grand Arrays. He had a faint feeling that the Celestial Demon being summoned by the second Grand Array from the left was the strongest.
The next moment, a dazzling beam of Seven Luminaries Demon-Slaying Divine Light shot out and bombarded the Mixed Cave.
