Stellar Transformation-Chapter 537 - 15 episodes 46 - s - Madly recruiting servants
Qin Yu floated in the air, his gaze sweeping across the area, quickly determining the number of Heavenly Gods before him. There were not many; only nine, led by a man whose hair and beard were fiercely flowing, his head of hair red as fire. His eyes, too, were a deep, fiery red, and his aura was overwhelmingly domineering.
This man was none other than Lan Shanhuo, the leader of the strongest bandit forces in one of the sixty-four cities in the Eastern Divine Realm, under the jurisdiction of Yuanling City.
"Lord Lan Shan, Mini Mountain is just ahead," said a Lower Heavenly God with great respect.
Lan Shanhuo’s fierce gaze swept over the entirety of Mini Mountain before it finally settled on Qin Yu, who was standing in mid-air. He roared, "Are you Qin Yu?"
Qin Yu couldn’t help but smile. This domineering man sure was straightforward in his speech.
"Indeed I am! And who might you be, Heavenly God? State your name," Qin Yu said aloud.
Taking a deep breath, Lan Shanhuo’s chest muscles bulged noticeably before he proudly proclaimed, "I am the ’Fire Lion’ Lan Shanhuo of Yuanling City. You must be aware of my strength. There’s a great gap between us, so you’d better hand over the treasure without fuss, or else—"
He was interrupted mid-sentence when a Lower Heavenly God sent him a divine sense message, "Lord Lan Shan, according to our intelligence, that old woman Chi Hongfeng arrived here before us but now she’s gone, probably fallen into Qin Yu’s hands. Please be cautious, sir."
Having come to Wei Chi City to pursue Qin Yu, as many had lingered there for a while, they were quite familiar with each other. Thus, Lan Shanhuo knew Chi Hongfeng had set out before them.
Lan Shanhuo’s fiery red eyes suddenly narrowed into slits, emitting a ruby-like glow.
"Chi Hongfeng fell too?" Lan Shanhuo’s estimation of Qin Yu suddenly rose significantly. "I have fought with that old woman Chi Hongfeng myself and couldn’t subdue her, yet this Qin Yu..."
Lan Shanhuo hesitated.
"Lan Shanhuo, why do you always speak in halves? Tell me, if I refuse to hand over the treasure, what can you possibly do to me?" Qin Yu still wore a light smile, floating in the air, his robe fluttering.
Lan Shanhuo glanced at Qin Yu’s formations and snorted coldly to himself, "Just a Lower Heavenly God, so what if he’s slightly better at formations? Whether that old woman Chi Hongfeng reached here first or not, even if she did fall into the formations, with her Space Domain, she wouldn’t die that easily!"
As Lan Shanhuo was pondering—
"Boom!" A violent explosion erupted from one of the large arrays above Mini Mountain, the very one that was the only Trapping Array among Qin Yu’s three Fourth Level Formations.
"Qin Yu, you can only trap us, fight us face to face if you dare!!!" A roar echoed from that array.
"Shut up, be quiet," a shouting voice commanded.
Lan Shanhuo’s eyes lit up, recognizing that familiar voice instantly. "It’s that old woman Chi Hongfeng; she’s indeed trapped in that array. But that array cannot trouble Middle Grade Heavenly Gods!"
A thought suddenly struck Lan Shanhuo.
Then, Lan Shanhuo shouted to the Heavenly Gods behind him, "Gentlemen, Miss Chi is right now fighting within that large array. Everyone, follow me to attack Qin Yu and even if we enter that array, keep attacking it. If too many people are trapped inside... I refuse to believe his array can withstand it!"
"Yes, sir!" someone immediately responded loudly.
Three of the eight Lower Heavenly Gods were under Lan Shanhuo’s command, while the remaining five merely relied on him.
"You five, listen well," he commanded. "Once inside the great Formation, stay within my Space Domain. If you’re uncertain, then stay here! Come on, let’s move!"
Lan Shanhuo shouted and immediately soared into the sky.
Three direct Lower Heavenly Gods immediately followed him, and the other five Heavenly Gods paused briefly before flying up to join them. The eight Lower Heavenly Gods, under the protection of Lan Shanhuo’s Space Domain, pursued Qin Yu directly.
Qin Yu watched the nine approaching and, with a graceful arc of his body, landed within the Trapping Array.
"In this Trapping Array, if too many people are trapped and they attack ceaselessly, surpassing the Formation’s upper limit, it would cause the Array Base to collapse. However... for these people, the Formation can still withstand it," Qin Yu knew the situation inside the Trapping Array clearly. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
*******
Inside the Trapping Array.
Chi Hongfeng’s brows were slightly furrowed. Since their entry into the Formation, Xianyu Yang had been earnestly studying it, yet he was still unable to decipher it, even now.
"How is this possible," he thought. "Isn’t it supposed to be just overlapping at most? How could the energies of the two distinct attributes of water and fire merge together, as well as integrate with the Gold Attribute’s defense positioning? No, it’s simply impossible..."
Xianyu Yang continuously analyzed the Formation before him.
In Xianyu Yang’s view, according to his own comprehension of the "Array Formation Essence" of the First Realm, the Formation that Qin Yu had set up did not conform to the "Array Formation Essence" he had comprehended.
That is to say, theoretically, the Formation before him shouldn’t exist.
Of course, this theory was Xianyu Yang’s own.
By now, Xianyu Yang did not realize that his proud First Realm of Array, which he believed to be correct, was utterly wrong, vastly deviating from the true essence of the Formation.
"Brother Xianyu, has there been any progress after so long?" Chi Hongfeng’s face was somewhat grim.
"Don’t rush me!" Xianyu Yang shouted lowly, his analysis becoming frantic while he also deployed various Restrictions to test the Formation’s reaction.
Fierce thunder and lightning brutally struck down, accompanied by flashes and roars, as various energies of Water Attribute, Fire Attribute, and other attributes attacked wildly.
Xianyu Yang and Chi Hongfeng, maintaining their Space Domain, continuously defended against the external attacks.
Inside Chi Hongfeng’s Space Domain, besides herself, were six others. Similarly, Xianyu Yang’s Space Domain also contained six others besides himself.
"You three, leave my Space Domain," Chi Hongfeng suddenly turned around and said coldly to the two Lower Heavenly Gods.
Chi Hongfeng’s direct subordinates were just three; the other three were independents. Expanding the Space Domain to resist various attacks consumed a great amount of her Soul Power.
The faces of the three Lower Heavenly Gods changed at once.
Asking them to leave the Space Domain was like sending them to their deaths.
"Chi..." Before these three could say more, they felt the Space Domain shrinking, immediately excluding them. At the same time, various Energy Attacks hit them.
Studied the Formation intensively, which was already mentally draining, Xianyu Yang also intentionally reduced the range of his Space Domain, directly abandoning two Lower Heavenly Gods who were not his direct subordinates.
The five Lower Heavenly Gods, looking resentfully at Xianyu Yang and Chi Hongfeng, could only immediately flee hastily.
Chi Hongfeng’s gaze towards Xianyu Yang had become extremely venomous, "Brother Xianyu, we have been here for already an hour." Chi Hongfeng pronounced each word distinctly.
Xianyu Yang turned to look at Chi Hongfeng, his face somewhat pale, his forehead covered in sweat, and his expression filled with helplessness. He finally sighed and shook his head, "Miss Chi, please forgive me, I truly am powerless now. You will have to find a way yourself."
The three Lower Heavenly Gods behind Chi Hongfeng immediately wanted to curse angrily, but Chi Hongfeng raised her hand to stop them. She gave Xianyu Yang a cold look, then she started to take action with her three direct subordinate Heavenly Gods.
...
Qin Yu was very clear about the situation within the Trapping Array; there were mainly four groups of Heavenly Gods within the Formation. One group was led by Chi Hongfeng consisting of four people, another led by Xianyu Yang comprising five people, one was the newly arrived group of nine led by Lan Shanhuo, and the last group consisted of the five abandoned Lower Heavenly Gods.
"Let’s attack those five Lower Heavenly Gods first, otherwise, in a little while, these five will lose their lives." Qin Yu muttered to himself, "Hurry up and increase the speed, use the Residual Snow Divine Spear directly."
In this Trapping Array, Qin Yu wasn’t worried about being seen with the Residual Snow Divine Spear, and the Devouring Spirit Divine Power and the Xuanhuang Energy’s ability to attack the soul made Qin Yu capable of easily defeating others.
...
Time passed, and the group of four led by Chi Hongfeng awkwardly kept fleeing within the Trapping Array, with Chi Hongfeng’s Space Domain covering only a three-meter radius around her.
"Big sister, what should we do?" one of them asked anxiously, his face filled with worry.
Chi Hongfeng surveyed her surroundings, which were currently an endless swamp, evidently an illusion within the Trapping Array. The reason the Trapping Array was formidable was that it could incorporate various types of Formations.
"I refuse to believe that I, Chi Hongfeng, who have traversed the Divine World for so many years, would fall in such a trivial Formation!" Chi Hongfeng had a fierce aura about her.
Herculean women are no less than men.
"Listen well, you three. Even if we can’t escape, Qin Yu finding it impossible to kill us," Chi Hongfeng confidently said, "We just need to wait it out. Many Heavenly Gods are after Qin Yu this time, and as more people arrive, surely someone will break this Formation."
Chi Hongfeng scanned her surroundings, "I am currently forming a three-meter radius Space Domain. The consumption of Soul Power for this is equal to the restoration speed of my Soul Power; there’s no need to worry about maintaining the Space Domain."
"Big sister, you mean..." The three Lower Heavenly Gods started to understand.
Chi Hongfeng continued forward and reached a maze formed by walls of various colors before she directly sat down cross-legged and spoke indifferently, "Let’s wait here until a large group of Heavenly Gods arrive!" Despite her confident speech, there was always a little uncertainty in her heart.
But that bit of uncertainty, she could not clearly express.
Her plan hinges on one thing; Qin Yu must not be able to kill her!
Is it really impossible for him to kill her?
"Qin Yu has no means to kill me, even if he possesses an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact, but I am a Middle Level Heavenly God and also possess a Middle Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact!" Chi Hongfeng secretly affirmed in her heart.
"Miss Chi, being too confident is not good," a divine sense transmitted directly into Chi Hongfeng’s mind.
Chi Hongfeng’s eyes suddenly burst with brilliance, and her soft sword instantly straightened; Chi Hongfeng became vigilant, paying close attention to her surroundings. The three Lower Heavenly Gods behind her also became alert.
But—
A figure appeared abruptly in front of Chi Hongfeng, and this manner of appearance indeed startled her, while at the same time, Qin Yu unleashed his Residual Snow Divine Spear.
"Relying on an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact to kill me, you’re dreaming!" Chi Hongfeng thought, while her Space Domain suddenly expanded, covering Qin Yu and the long spear in his hand, as she tried to use the Space Domain to bind Qin Yu himself and the spear.
Only to see thousands of hair-like spatial cracks appear around the tip of the Residual Snow Divine Spear, which the Space Domain could not bind at all.
Chi Hongfeng’s expression changed drastically, as she hurriedly used her soft sword to block.
"Boom!"
The soft sword instantly coiled around the Residual Snow Divine Spear like a whip, but a layer of Xuanhuang Energy surfaced on the spear, shaking the soft sword loose.
"Pu-chi!"
The Residual Snow Divine Spear pierced through Chi Hongfeng’s chest, and at the same time, a wave attacked directly towards Chi Hongfeng’s Soul Nascent Soul. One of the two special effects of the Residual Snow Divine Spear—Soul Devouring.
The effect of Soul Devouring, controlled by Qin Yu, became particularly horrifying after absorbing Xuanhuang Energy, enhancing the devastating effects of Soul Devouring and Body Splitting even further.
Chi Hongfeng only felt a thunderous noise in her head, then her whole body weakly slumped to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the three Lower Heavenly Gods felt an unbelievable shock, while Qin Yu himself instantly moved three times with Instantaneous Divine Power, and with each move, he attacked with the Residual Snow Divine Spear, leading the three Lower Heavenly Gods to also fall to the ground.
"Why doesn’t Qin Yu kill me?" thought Chi Hongfeng, while at that moment, a small stone tower appeared in Qin Yu’s hands.
The stone tower grew as if facing the wind, swiftly becoming as tall as a three-story building.
"Capture!"
With a light shout from Qin Yu, several soul attacks covered the four people collapsed on the ground, and with their souls already damaged, they let the God-locking Tower collect them inside.
"This is only the first batch, the next batch will be Xianyu Yang and his five companions!" Qin Yu retracted the God-locking Tower and his form vanished immediately. Qin Yu began to act wildly within this Fourth Level Trapping Array, massively collecting these Heavenly Gods into the God-locking Tower.
Qin Yu’s number of servants kept increasing, breaking past ten, and gradually... it surpassed twenty. No Heavenly God could win in a one-on-one fight against Qin Yu, who possessed the Residual Snow Divine Spear and the Instantaneous Divine Power.
Qin Yu, without any restraint in his strength, was indeed terrifyingly formidable.
