Chapter 1689: Chapter 1679: Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array
"This time, we truly owe it all to you; otherwise, the situation of the Zhenyang Sect would have been extremely embarrassing."
On the city tower, Long Yan bowed to Nalan Feng and Yan Chixiao, speaking earnestly.
This time, if the Huashen Sect had not arrived in time, he could only have led the people of the Zhenyang Sect into the Ancient City of Taihuang, relying on the City Defending Array to deter the Great Army of the Demon Clan and think of other methods.
"Brother-in-law, we’re family. It’s strange to speak so formally."
Nalan Feng waved his hand; he had completely sold out his sister.
This form of address also made Long Yan only smile wryly.
"Back then, the Sect Master and you had already reached an agreement. The Huashen Sect is allied with the Zhenyang Sect. If Zhenyang Sect faces difficulties, the Huashen Sect cannot possibly stand by idly. This time, coming to the Southern Wasteland Continent was the Sect Master’s idea," Yan Chixiao said with a smile.
Initially, Nalan Jie wanted to pull Long Yan into the Huashen Sect, even wanting to take Long Yan as his disciple, but Long Yan declined, leading Nalan Jie to settle for a second-best solution of forming an alliance with Long Yan.
Nalan Jie was keen on Long Yan’s talent, and indeed, it turned out that Nalan Jie’s judgment was right, as Long Yan’s talent had reached a terrifying extent.
"The Demon Clan is already spread across the entire imperial area; do you know if any of them have appeared on the Sealed Gods Ancient Road?" Long Yan asked.
The Sealed Gods Ancient Road was the true stronghold of the strong ones. If a calamity were to arise there as well...
"So far, no members of the Demon Clan have appeared on the Sealed Gods Ancient Road. After all, the Sealed Gods Ancient Road is different from the imperial area," Yan Chixiao answered.
If a calamity were also to rise on the Sealed Gods Ancient Road, the Huashen Sect would find it difficult to free up forces to help the Zhenyang Sect.
"Brother-in-law, when did you gain control over so many Dark Beasts?" Nalan Feng asked.
Nearly a hundred Dark Beasts, all of formidable strength, especially the Ghost-faced Ferocious Dragon—its real strength was probably capable of contending with an ordinary Second Divine Calamity.
At this moment, those Dark Beasts were devouring the corpses of the Demon Tribe on the battlefield; for them, the corpses of the Demon Tribe were definitely a supplement that could help them rapidly increase their strength.
"I subdued them in an Ancient Battlefield, and have been keeping them hidden ever since," Long Yan said casually.
The origins of these Dark Beasts were not important.
"Having devoured these corpses of the Demon Tribe, the strength of these Dark Beasts will surely increase significantly, and once they all step into Crossing the God Disaster, they will be a formidable force," Yan Chixiao said.
Probably only Long Yan had the means to control even Dark Beasts.
"The power of the Demon Clan is too strong; until now, we have not been able to grasp the true strength of the Demon Clan. Relying on these Dark Beasts will not solve our immediate crisis," Long Yan said. "This time the Great Army of the Demon Clan was defeated because you suddenly struck, catching them unawares. If I am not mistaken, the Demon Clan will return, deploying an even stronger force."
The Demon Clan, intent on consuming the entire Southern Wasteland Continent, although defeated this time, was certainly not likely to give up.
Once the Demon Clan returned, their offensive would inevitably be more fierce, and the force they deployed would also surely be stronger.
"Do you have any plans?" Yan Chixiao asked.
"We cannot lose Taihuang Ancient City. We have no way out; we must defend Taihuang Ancient City at all costs," Long Yan said.
He also had no real solution in mind, and if it really became unbearable, he would have no choice but to utilize the power of the Dragon God Ancient City.
"I do have an idea," Yan Chixiao said.
"What’s the plan?"
Long Yan asked.
"I have a Great Formation in my hand, an Ancient Formation called Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array. Though somewhat incomplete, its power is remarkable. With this formation, we can certainly make the Demon Clan pay a price."
Yan Chixia flipped his palm, and a strip-shaped box appeared in his hand.
This box was very ancient, but the material was extraordinary. Clearly, one could sense the sharp breath circulating inside. The Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array was sealed within this sword box.
"Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array!"
Long Yan’s eyebrows lifted slightly, and a trace of joy appeared on his face.
Since the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array was an Ancient Formation, it undoubtedly possessed remarkable power. Using the formation against the Demon Clan was definitely a good strategy.
"We can set up this Great Formation in advance on the battlefield outside the city. When the Demon Clan’s great army makes its return, we can then unexpectedly activate the formation and strike a heavy blow to the Demon Clan’s great army."
Long Yan said.
He already had a plan in mind. With the power of the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array, even if it could not completely annihilate the Demon Clan’s great army, it could certainly inflict heavy damage on them.
"Long Yan, don’t get excited just yet. Let me finish speaking,"
Yan Chixia said, "This Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array is indeed an Ancient Formation, but it’s incomplete, which makes setting it up very troublesome. I am also not absolutely sure, plus, there’s the most crucial point: once this formation is activated, it is difficult to control. The person controlling the formation will suffer a significant backlash, posing a risk to their life."
Because the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array was incomplete, the person controlling it would endure the force of the backlash, which was a significant hidden danger.
"Even so, we must try it."
After pondering for a moment, Long Yan took the long box from Yan Chixia’s hands and said, "I’ll study this formation first and then proceed with the setup."
Immediately after, Long Yan departed.
An hour later, Long Yan brought Lu Xuanming to a large hall.
"Master Lu, you are a master of formations. Here I have an Ancient Formation called Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array, take a look."
Long Yan took out the strip-shaped long box and handed it to Lu Xuanming.
Although he knew a bit about formations, facing such an Ancient Formation, his capability was limited. Lu Xuanming was a master of formations and could help.
"Ancient Formation!"
Hearing this, a spark of brilliance rose in Lu Xuanming’s eyes.
Carrying the civilization from Ancient Times, he had never encountered an Ancient Formation before, and his heart was also excited.
"An Ancient Formation is not to be taken lightly. With my current strength, I probably cannot control it alone. I need your help!"
Lu Xuanming’s expression was extremely solemn.
"Not a problem, I am here to protect you."
Long Yan said.
Lu Xuanming nodded, then reached out to break the seal indicated on the long box and slowly opened it.
"Buzzzzzz..."
The moment the long box was opened, an unmatched sharpness surged out. Countless sharp Sword Qis emerged like a tide; the space was torn apart, shaking the entire great hall violently.
"Suppress!"
In a split second, Long Yan pointed out, releasing the Vast Nine Suns Rule, forcibly suppressing the sharpness, preventing it from affecting Lu Xuanming.
"What a tyrannical sword array!"
Long Yan was slightly moved and clearly somewhat shocked.
This was just the momentum of the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array, not something ordinary Emperors could withstand. One could imagine, once the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array truly awakened, how terrifying it would be.
