Chapter 188 King of Destroying Formations

Through the introduction of White and Liu Jiawen, Lyu Liang finally figured out the backgrounds of these three judges.

Han Jing and Han Tangtang, the outstanding representatives of the third generation of the Han family in Remote Antiquity, were masters of spirit server manipulation. Han Tangtang, in particular, was among the only three spirit server masters, so it would not be easier to beat her because of her young age! She looked young just because her cultivation method had led to her young appearance. However, she actually was no more than thirty years younger than Han Jing.

The tall and strong youth was Fang Mu from the Fang family in Remote Antiquity, who was the only male descendant of the third generation of the Fang family. It could be said that, since childhood, he had been the most cherished member of the Fang family. Thanks to his ordinary Spiritual Root and common constitution, he had never let the family down. Due to his extraordinary perseverance, he had made the most detailed study of the extensive and profound puppet skill. He currently ranked third in combat power in the Fang family, and fifth in the family’s entire history!

More or less, these three people had learned a lot about Lyu Liang and they at least trusted him. In the words of Han Tangtang, besides Zhu Yu, Lyu Liang was the second person that the proud Liu Jiawen would like to protect!

What made Lyu Liang feel most gratified was that these three people didn’t put on an air, especially Fang Mu, who was an extremely restrained person. What Lyu Liang didn’t know was that, despite an appearance as stupid as his, Fang Mu had once fought with a powerful figure at the middle stage of the Tao Ancestor alone and managed to get a tie! In addition, Fang Mu’s cultivation had only been at the early stage of the Supreme Master at the time!

The one who had moved Lyu Liang to the cave was Fang Mu. He not only excelled at using puppets, but was also proficient in formation. In his own words, because he had been clumsy at operating magic treasures since childhood, besides the puppet method, he still had other methods to protect himself and attack the enemy. In this sense, formation had been a good facilitating tool.

Lyu Liang now knew that the spirit server in the relic was also a masterpiece of Han Jing. She was a member of the third generation who had participated in the follow-up work between the seals. Although this was a top secret, she didn’t conceal it from Lyu Liang and secretly transmitted the secret to him.

Of course, the main message of her transmission was that she was totally unhappy about the fact that Lyu Liang should have destroyed the Ten Spirit Servers at a level even lower than the Xuan Immortal. What made her feel even worse was that he had even destroyed the Fifteen Spirit Servers so easily! In the end, by taking advantage of her status as a judge, she asked for another match with Lyu Liang after the test!

Lyu Liang was worried. Not only had Han Jing asked for another match, but Han Tangtang had secretly transmitted a voice to him for the same thing. They were really true sisters…

This unexpected challenge, including the subsequent mutual understanding, lasted just for half an hour. Things came quietly and went away quietly, as if nothing had happened.

“Boy, your teleportation and Third’s Prison of Dark Shadow was a good cooperation. Although this was the first time you two cooperated with each other, you did a good job. With the help of the Primordial Qi bomb, your strength will rise greatly in the following real battles!” When Lyu Liang was alone, White uncharacteristically praised him.

Lyu Liang just smirked and continued meditating the Soul-Breaking Palm. The puppet used by Fang Mu just now had smashed the previous complacence of Lyu Liang, which also reminded him that no matter strong one was, there was always someone stronger. Although his Soul-Breaking Palm was overwhelming, it was not invincible. He had to spare no effort to improve it!

Two days later, in the sunny morning, the camp of the Chaotic World was jubilant. A long-lost smile finally returned to everybody’s faces. Thanks to Lyu Liang, this unexpected great victory had been a good start for the upcoming test of Immortals.

All the cultivators that would participate in the test arrived at the place designated by the Immortal Allies at an earlier time. The judges of the Heavenly Alliance had been waiting there for a long time. There was a total of five judges. Besides the three mentioned above, there was a middle-aged thin man with a huge gourd on his back and a bald elderly man with two long tusks.

Lyu Liang was stunned when he spotted the elderly. The seven days he and Dongfang Xiaoyu had spent in the Land of Origin in Pangu Origin world had been unforgettable, and his last test had been given by a Divided Soul of this elderly! He would remember that experience until the end of his life!

While Lyu Liang was figuring out whether this elderly still remembered him, the elderly turned back to give him a friendly smile, which made Lyu Liang feel delighted. It seemed that he could pass the test in a comfortable atmosphere.

Those who had known there would be five judges in this test felt rather surprised, because there had been merely two judges, or at most three judges, at the previous test of Immortals and other tests of Immortals in different Worlds. Thus, it was quite rare to see five judges at one test.

Only Lyu Liang knew that the three judges mentioned above were probably temporary ones. Anyway, it was not difficult for them to acquire the quality of a judge thanks to their noble status.

The senior Saber-Toothed Tiger, whose Taoism title was Saber-Toothed Master, was the chief judge of this test of Immortal. The thin man carrying a gourd on his back, whose Taoism title was Wine Sword Immortal, was the deputy judge-in-chief. The leftover three judges had been crowned assistant judges, which was a new title.

“Now is the time for the test of Immortal of the Heavenly Alliance! This time, there is a total of 1,627 participants from the Chaotic World. First, the art test!” From the high stage, the Saber-Toothed Master paused and glanced at the masses below before continuing. “The art test is about destroying formation. In ten hours, the first 32 people who destroy the most formations will qualify to participate in the martial art test!”

Following his words, the Wine Sword Immortal stepped forward. The gourd on his back soared to the sky and then lay down on the ground, its volume increasing many times.

“The participants of the test, please go in! After ten hours, you will be called out. Mind you, some of the formations inside can produce a powerful attack, so if you do not want to die, please shout ‘I quit!’ and go out!” Jiu Xian Xian’s words were peaceful and powerful. The participants began to consciously line up and approach the mouth of the gourd one by one.

The rules of this test of Immortal were rather loose. The participants were allowed to use their spirit beasts and magic treasures at will, yet they were not allowed to ask others for help.

Lyu Liang began to feel secretly delighted the moment he heard the contents of the test. “Destroying a formation? I have Black with me now. If I wanted, even becoming No.1 would not be a problem!”

After entering the gourd, Lyu Liang was placed on a cloud of sea. He just flew a few feet forward before he found it hard to continue flying. Apparently, he was already in the first formation.

Lyu Liang did not rely on Black immediately. Ten hours were quite enough. Thus, he decided to figure out a way to destroy the formation within two and a half hours and then decide whether to use Black based on the situation.

Lyu Liang figured out the way to destroy the first formation within about one and a half hours. It was a simple protective formation, which would be destroyed by just a heavy hack of the Kunwu Sword.

The second formation was obviously more complicated. Lyu Liang intended to destroy it in the same way, yet he was shocked when he was somersaulted by the first hack. Therefore, he had to continue to study the second formation.

After a deeper study of the formation, Lyu Liang was totally shocked. He had never studied formation before, although he had found a place with a crack inside the formation. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn’t destroy the formation.

After an hour, Black, who really couldn’t stand it anymore, reminded Lyu Liang, “Hey, it was the fake formation key that was used to deceive people. The real one is at the flank of your back, which is about ten meters away… Well, forget it… ”

Lyu Liang reluctantly sighed and shook his head. He honestly rejected his thought of finding a way by himself and directly followed Black’s instructions.

Then, the second formation was easily destroyed. Of course, if it had not been for Black, Lyu Liang would probably have been trapped there for two hours.

White, as well as Golden and Ape, all burst into laughter without any qualms. However, Fatty, Little Tian and the two wild beasts all expressed the meaning of “specialization”, indicating that Lyu Liang really did not care about this. After all, although there were geniuses in the world, a versatile man was a rare sight.

Lyu Liang, who naturally knew this, didn’t care at all. He had enough time, so Lyu Liang did not hurry on. However, every time he went into a formation, he would follow Black’s instructions and work out the type of the formation and the location of the formation key first.

After two hours, Lyu Liang had reached the twelfth formation. The moment he entered the formation, he was overjoyed. Twelve spirit servers gradually appeared in front of him. This had to be the masterpiece of the two girls of the Han family.

This was the third time he dealt with this kind of formation, so Lyu Liang was quite familiar with the way to defeat them. Just within two hours, he cleared up all these spirit servers.

The following formations were almost combinations of attack and defense. Thanks to Black’s help, combined with Lyu Liang ‘s bravery, he basically destroyed those formations with an irresistible force.

Within eight hours, Lu Liang had destroyed more than 50 formations. Then, he stopped and began to estimate the progress of others along with the beasts, as he did not want to lead too much.

However, Black’s words dampened Lyu Liang’s temper. “Actually, I intended to remind you that you can pass the test after destroying the third formation, as only Tao Masters can pass that strong formation. Theoretically speaking, you can almost make the finalists. After the 40th formation is destroyed, you will definitely become a finalist! I didn’t say anything because you were in such high spirits. Now that you asked me, I can tell you that you are qualified enough to be a finalist!”

Lyu Liang spent the last hour in this kind of situation, which he found both funny and annoying. At the end of the art test, as Black had said, even Huangfu Gang, who had made No. 2, just destroyed 45 formations. Both Liu Jiahao and Liu Jiawen destroyed 41 formations, and the others didn’t destroy more than 40 formations.

The mass marveled at Lyu Liang’s record of destroying 56 formations. Except the people who knew the truth, everyone else had a worshipping look on their faces. Lyu Liang flushed from face to neck. Thanks to his dark complexion, nobody noticed his shyness.

Finally, among the 32 participants, everyone who was on Lyu Liang’s side passed the art test except for Wen Ying, who had failed the test by a neck. Lyu Liang was crowned “King of Destroying Formations” by countless people.

After the test, only Liu Jiawen made fun of him. “Well done! Only Supreme Masters can destroy more than 50 formations, so why not continue? If you can destroy the following formations above the level of Tao Ancestor, I can assure you that you can go to the space of Goddess Nyu Wa without being promoted to the Heaven Realm. Doesn’t this sound better?”
