Chapter 98 Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation

Lyu Liang was totally confused. As for Tai Su Ancestor Lord opposite him, he felt amazed at first, then said in a deep voice, “I see! I didn’t expect that you were favored by that old guy. Did he send you here? Unfortunately, you’re too weak! Was the earlier move you used your strongest killing form? But it is nowhere near my Black-fire Glass Cover!”

“Xiaoliang, he just looks like Tai Su Ancestor Lord! Don’t get distracted!” Black’s voice echoed in Lyu Liang’s mind, which sobered him up instantly. But his heart missed a beat at the next moment.

At this moment, the aura of the black-robed man immediately soared beyond that of a Fairy Immortal. Lyu Liang had failed to sense it previously. That would mean that the man opposite was above Xuan Immortal stage.

Even if he launched a devil thunder attack, he would not win the fight. Lyu Liang felt depressed, and at the same time, he secretly grumbled about what Tai Su Ancestor Lord had told him earlier. The black-robed man was almost a carbon copy of Tai Su Ancestor Lord and his cultivation was loftier than Lyu Liang’s was. Wasn’t he told that the man’s cultivation was half of his? But now he was bound to be killed.

As Lyu Liang pondered on this, a great uproar could be heard, coming from the group of the disciples of Xueling Sect. Then, countless horrifying inky arrows soared towards them, and killed so many demons in an instant.

The black-robed man said to himself, as he looked on in horror, “What? The Late-stage of Void Return stage? Someone is courting death!”

Lyu Liang already knew who that was and he greatly admired Murong Wuji. It felt like he was with Nangong Qingxuan again. They both had an abhorrence of sin; both were helpful and not afraid of death!

At the moment, the heroic spirit emerged from Lyu Liang’s heart spontaneously. As he raised the Ghost Devil Head, Sword Tao Field Domain welled out, and engulfed some of Xueling Demons in an instant.

The black-robed man became furious. He turned around and headed for Murong Wuji. Lyu Liang certainly would not set him free, so he controlled most of the Sword Qi in the Field Domain to surround the black-robed man.

At this point, Mu Xiaozi, who understood the current situation, realized that she could not help the two of them in combat. She remembered the last words of the patriarch. After looking at the ground and pondering for a while, her eyes sparkled with a decisive look!

Murong Wuji also noticed the black-robed man’s arrival. He frowned and said to himself, “The opportunity Master said sounds like a deadlock. Anyway, even if Master fooled me, I can’t escape from this situation, otherwise it will be too shameful for me to continue to cultivate! Perhaps Xiaolian will look me down upon. Hard luck!”

Murong Wuji’s eyes suddenly turned white, and the golden light surrounding him started glowing brightly. Meanwhile, the golden light instantly condensed into countless short arrows. He held a black bow and continued using the brushes as arrows, but what were shot were no longer ink arrows but beams of golden lights.

“The Heaven-bow body? You have the divine weapon body! Bastard!” Seeing what was happening, the black-robed man was shocked and outraged. He had originally intended to attack, but suddenly turned defensive instead. The black lights he sent out formed a cover, which resisted the roaring golden arrows.

Although the black-robed man could block the attack, the others failed to contain them. In the face of the golden arrows, apart from four Fairy Immortals, tens of thousands of disciples of the Xueling Sect, regardless of the levels of cultivation, died as soon as they touched the arrows.

At this point, Murong Wuji’s voice sounded in Lyu Liang’s mind, “Taoism peer Xuanli, I can hold this state for an hour. You should retreat with the girl during this period. I’ll find a chance to escape!”

Mu Xiaozi apparently received a similar message. When she met Lyu Liang’s gaze, both of them saw the determination in each other’s eyes.

Lu Liang not only did not retreat, but also remounted the attack on the black-robed man. Simultaneously, he secretly transmitted a voice to Murong Wuji, “Even if I will die, I’ll never retreat! But I really feel sorry for involving Taoism brother Murong in this mess!”

At this point, Mu Xiaozi, who had never spoken out before, secretly transmitted a voice to the two of them respectively, “I have a way to help us get out of this place. However, you need to keep me from any distractions for 30 minutes.”

Lyu Liang and Murong Wuji nodded at the same time. Then, the two slowly approached each other and walked casually in front of Mu Xiaozi. The black-robed man felt so depressed at this time that he was gnashing his teeth and muttering to himself, “These two juniors, who are even inferior to Fairy Immortals, have managed to trap me in such a difficult position. I’m going to see how long you can maintain this situation! You’ll die once you are exhausted!”

However, the black-robed man soon found out that something was very wrong. Lyu Liang and Murong Wuji had been attacking him from the back and front at the same time, which made him very uncomfortable. But now the two of them grouped together, which not only relieved his stress, but at the same time, made him suspicious. Were they trying to escape? No. The power of their killing actions became much stronger.

All of a sudden, the black-robed man realized their intention. His eyes shone with a terrifying light, he gritted his teeth and roared, “You dare to fool me! It’s impossible for you to enter the Brahma Divine Realm! Both Kunwu Sword and Bliss Bow belong to me, and nobody can snatch them from me!”

Unfortunately, he realized this too late. While he was roaring in fury, a circular formation appeared under the three of them. Suddenly, they disappeared into the sky, without leaving any aura.

…

At first, Lyu Liang felt dizzy, and then he fell unconscious. After some time, he gradually regained his consciousness. Meanwhile, there seemed to be something rubbing up against his body.

When he opened his eyes, he was almost scared out of his wits. He saw a huge double-headed Giant Tiger sniffing at him with the nose on its left head. How big was this beast? In fact, the height of one of its head was more than two feet higher than Lyu Liang. Lyu Liang looked so small in front of it.

At this point, the Giant Tiger’s right head said, “Can you stop sniffing? Ji Le is much faster than us!”

The left head stopped sniffing at Lyu Liang and said, “Yeah! It must be him; I have been waiting for these two successors after such a long period!”

Lyu Liang did not understand what the Giant Tiger said. He was only concerned about two things, “Where were his other two companions? Where were they?”

The Giant Tiger seemed to know what Lyu Liang was thinking, so the left head said calmly, “Boy, stop looking for them. This is a space in the Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation and your two companions are safe, they are both in the other two layers of spaces respectively. Do you cultivate Sword Tao? If so, show us your moves.”

Hearing its words, Lyu Liang felt somewhat relieved. Although he had never heard of the Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation before, he thought he was in the Brahma Divine Realm since he had heard it from Xiaodan.

Lyu Liang began to display the Sword Tao Field Domain and then integrated all kinds of moves into it to show the Giant Tiger.

The eyes of the Giant Tiger’s two heads brightened as Lyu Liang displayed his moves. When they saw certain movements, they suddenly screamed at the same time, which almost scattered Lyu Liang’s Field Domain. If his Divine Soul were not strong enough, it would be having been damaged too.

…

In the meantime in another layer of space, Murong Wuji looked excitedly at what was ahead of him. Within his sight was a long-haired humanoid monster with a golden body.

“Stupid Giant Tiger, you’re likely to hurt the successor… Hey, silly boy, I think your Heaven-bow Body is a little off, but you’re a man of great intellect, for you can guess my body according to my aura! But whether I will acknowledge you or not depends on your good fortune!”

…

On Lyu Liang’s side, the Giant Tiger nodded repeatedly after roaring, and the left head said with a laugh, “It’s really him! The man mentioned by the old man is really him! He mastered the Field Domain though he’s at the Nascent Soul stage, and has an opportunity of the law of cause and effect. Moreover, he has already learned the first two styles of the Heaven-burning Sword Formation!”

Lyu Liang understood its words this time. It was so excited because the Giant Tiger saw some familiar factors from his moves. As for the old man it mentioned just now, he was likely to be the master of this Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation and certainly was not any average powerful figure!

Lyu Liang did not ask anything. The right head spat out a white gas to surround him. Then, both Lyu Liang and the tiger disappeared from the space.

After a while, Lyu Liang regained his sight. He saw a kind, dumpy, bald old man staring at him with a smile.

Finding that Lyu Liang was also looking at him, the old man laughed loudly and said, “My body seems to have such a decent taste that he found this geek to be his disciple. Great, great! Boy, you can call me Heaven-burning Ancestor.”

The first part of his words confused Lyu Liang a little, but he made out the meaning of the second part. Therefore, he bowed to the old man and said, “I’m Lyu Liang. Hello, senior Ancestor. Did you create this mysterious Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation?”

The old man touched his baldhead and muttered after thinking for a while, “Yes, or maybe no. You can’t understand it now, but you will understand it later. But I’m the master here! Are you willing to be my pro-disciple? I can teach you Heaven-burning Sword Formation and help you kill all the guys of Xueling Sect outside!”

Lyu Liang shivered. He knelt on the ground to kowtow three times and then said reverently, “Master, please accept my respects! By the way, I have a master I have never seen before…”

Subsequently, Lyu Liang told him all the details about the Virtual Land and Dreamless Heavenly Lord. It was obvious that he intended to continue to acknowledge Dreamless Heavenly Lord as his master. In this case, could he become your disciple as well?

It went smoother than Lyu Liang had expected. Heaven-burning Ancestor yawned and said lazily, “It doesn’t matter. But you are so honest. Well, you’re becoming more and more agreeable in my eyes. Come on, after you finish learning the Heaven-burning Sword Formation, I’ll give you another opportunity to help you achieve your goal!”

Although Lyu Liang felt delighted, he could not help but ask, “Master, can I ask how you know that I was the one who ruined the Xueling Sect?”

Heaven-burning smiled and said mysteriously, “Do you want to know where the Karma Streamer in your body comes from? Once it exists in your body, your fate concerning with karma starts to circulate. No matter what I say or don’t say, you’ll know later. Even if you figure out the truth now, it won’t benefit you. The most important thing you should do is to make the best of things and seize the opportunity in front of you.”

Lyu Liang understood instantly, so he bowed to him reverently and said, “I see! Thank you for your answer. I got it!”

Heaven-burning Ancestor smiled. He seemed to think of something interesting, so he whispered mysteriously, “By the way, I should send you an opportunity in advance, but you need to make painstaking efforts. Follow me.”

Then, a formation appeared at the foot of Lyu Liang. The next moment, both he and Heaven-burning Ancestor disappeared.

After he regained consciousness, Lyu Liang found himself in a palace. His eyes lit up and he immediately recalled that it was the place of the Colorful Barrier where he had met the four giant bear guarding spirits previously!

However, at this point in time, in the middle of the palace, there were four golden protective covers with four charming, cute little bears sleeping inside.

Heaven-burning Ancestor pursed his lips at the four little bears and said, “They’re the guarding spirits that have not been refined yet. Anyway, since it will take you nearly one hundred years to reach the peak of your sword formation, you can refine them during this period, and you’ll become the master of Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation in the future. As for the refining method, it’s very simple. You just need to convey the Spiritual Qi of your body to them until you succeed in refining.”

Looking at the four charming, cute little bears and remembering the expectations in their eyes for the future, Lyu Liang responded immediately, “Thank you, master. From now on, I will refine their spirits while cultivating the sword techniques!”
