Chapter 973 Guardian Array [First Update]

"Finally... it's turned on!"

Outside Yaochi, looking at the colorful rays of light rising above Yaochi, Yan Beichen's eyes suddenly revealed a glimmer of light and he spoke softly.

He has been waiting outside Yaochi, waiting for the opening of Yaochi's protective formation.

"I actually activated the guardian formation...could it be that the Sifang Star Master was also defeated?" Star Master Liang Duan said in disbelief as he looked in the direction of Yaochi.

In fact, in the past, the Lord of the Two Broken Stars also fought against the Lord of the Sifang Star. Although Sifangtian failed to stop him in the end, his escape was not easy.

As for Wu Chi, on the Cangqiong Star, Wu Chi killed the Dark Star Lord in a battle with the Two Breaking Star Lords.

It can be said that Wu Chi's ability to kill the Dark Star Lord was largely due to the power of the most evil sword in ancient times, and after all, the Dark Star Lord was unable to mobilize the power of his natal stars, so killing the Dark Star Lord was nothing.

Judging from the strength he saw at the beginning, it seemed impossible for Wu Chi to break through the four-way pair of geniuses.

But now that the Yaochi Guardian Formation has been opened, it has undoubtedly been proved that the Queen of Heaven plans to take action personally, so naturally there is no need to say more about the victory or defeat between the Sifang Star Master and Wu Chi.

This made no sense, but it happened to be right in front of him.

Shaking his head, Yan Beichen slowly said, "It seems that you only saw the most ferocious sword in the ancient times, but you underestimated him."

With a smile, Yan Beichen said calmly, "A blinding leaf! Although the most ferocious sword in ancient times is terrifying, it is just a dead thing after all. Even I don't care, let alone Master and Dao Ancestor... But do you think , is it possible for Wu Chi to live to this day without the tacit consent of Master and the Taoist Patriarch?"

"..."

The two broken star masters were a little dazed, but their expressions were a bit more solemn.

Looking in the direction of Yaochi, Yan Beichen continued, "On the Cangqiong Star, with the death of Zhou Boyan, the most ferocious sword in ancient times has revived! But, what happened before that?"

"Wu Chi's rise is not just because of the most ferocious sword in ancient times! On the contrary, if he doesn't have a truly extraordinary understanding of swordsmanship, how can he make the most ferocious sword in ancient times recognize his master? If he is not amazing enough, so what? Can you survive until the Divine Sword is revived?"

These words made the two broken star masters tremble in their hearts!

It seemed that this was just about Wu Chi, but in fact, it was also Yan Beichen who was reminding him in a subtle way not to be blinded by foreign objects.

After thinking about this, the Lord of the Two Broken Stars immediately bowed to Yan Beichen and said, "Thank you, Son of the Devil, for reminding me!"

Waving his hand, Yan Beichen chuckled and said, "Why bother saying thank you? It's just a few gossips!"

After a pause, Yan Beichen continued, "The Queen has always thought that as long as she can obtain the most ferocious sword of the ancient times, Yaochi will be invincible in this changing situation of heaven. This is wrong in itself."

"The Chengying Sword can become the most ferocious sword in ancient times, not because of itself, but because it is in the hands of the master of the Chengying Sword!"

"In the same way, although the most ferocious sword in the ancient times can enhance Wu Chi's strength, the truly terrifying thing about Wu Chi is not the most ferocious sword in the ancient times."

Raising his head, Yan Beichen said calmly, "There is a kind of person who is born for the sword... In my opinion, Wu Chi is such a person."

Born for the sword!

These four simple words mean the greatest affirmation for sword cultivators.

There are so many people who practice swordsmanship in this world. Whether they are in the Immortal Path or the Demonic Realm, there are countless masters of swordsmanship. But who is worthy of these four words?

What's more, this evaluation came from Yan Beichen's mouth.

The closer you get to Yan Beichen, the easier it is to be infected by Yan Beichen's charm. Even a strong person like the Lord of the Two Broken Stars can't help but be impressed by him. This in itself is enough to prove that Yan Beichen is extraordinary.

Thinking of this, the Lord of the Two Broken Stars couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Being born in the same era as you, the son of the devil, is probably the greatest misfortune in his life."

Although Wu Chi was very strong, in the eyes of the two broken stars, he still couldn't compare with Yan Beichen.

Just as the world says that Yan Beichen and Princess Changning are destined enemies, in fact, people who are really familiar with Yan Beichen will sneer at this! For a person like Yan Beichen, no one is qualified to compare with him.

"Let's go. If we don't take action... Wu Chi may really die in Yao Chi."

With a casual smile and no comment, Yan Beichen's feet swayed slightly, and a terrifying demonic flame erupted from his body, hitting Yaochi fiercely like a meteor.

He was waiting for Wu Chi to take action, but in fact, Wu Chi was waiting for him to take action!

Yaochi's protective formation was passed down from ancient times. Even with Yan Beichen's strength, it is naturally impossible to break it. But as long as he takes action, he will inevitably need to contain a large part of the Queen's power.

No matter how powerful the formation is, it needs people to control it in order to truly exert its power.

The person who can control the Yaochi Guardian Formation can naturally only be the Queen of Heaven.

What Yan Beichen has to do now is to force the Queen to devote a large part of her energy to controlling the guardian formation and preventing him from breaking into the Yaochi.

Only in this way can Wu Chi survive in Yao Chi and find an opportunity to break the protective formation from within.

. .

"boom!"

A terrifying attack suddenly fell on the protective formation, and in an instant the Queen's expression suddenly changed.

The purpose of opening the protective formation before was to prevent accidents, and she wanted to kill Wu Chi directly in the shortest time, but who would have thought that she had been very careful, but still an accident happened.

The Yaochi Guardian Formation has been passed down from ancient times. Relying on the power of the Yaochi Immortal Palace itself, it can be said to be the strongest formation in the world.

But such a protective formation also means that only those who have refined the Yaochi Immortal Palace can truly control this formation and exert its power.

Of course, if someone else attacks, Yaochi's protective formation can neutralize the opponent's attack on its own even if no one is controlling it.

But unfortunately, the person currently attacking the guard formation is Yan Beichen.

No one dares to underestimate Yan Beichen, even as a queen. Once she gives up controlling the protective formation and allows Yan Beichen to break the protective formation and break into Yaochi, it will be a real disaster for Yaochi.

How strong is Yan Beichen?

It seems difficult to reach a real conclusion on this issue.

But there is no doubt about one thing. In the entire heaven, there are only two masters who can really stop Yan Beichen!

A princess of Changning and an emperor of Donghua.

When the matter involves Wu Chi, the Queen of Heaven will naturally not expect Princess Changning to take action, so the only one she can count on is Emperor Donghua.

But... where is Emperor Donghua?

. .

Ziwei Palace!

Emperor Donghua stood calmly in the palace, overlooking the Yaochi in the distance!

The Emperor's will had arrived at Ziwei Palace a few days ago, but he still had no intention of leaving.

This situation now seems extremely embarrassing to him.

He didn't want Wu Chi to kill the Queen of Heaven and give Yan Beichen and the Demon Realm an opportunity, but he also didn't want Wu Chi to die in Yao Chi.

The worst part is that he can't resolve the hatred between Queen of Heaven and Wu Chi at all.

This put him in a dilemma, and for a while, he couldn't make up his mind about what to do.

On the firmament star, Wu Chi's accusation against him seemed to be still vivid in his mind, but he still couldn't get angry after all.

This is not only because Wu Chi is his disciple, but more importantly... Wu Chi's accusation itself is very reasonable.

Regarding Zhou Boyan's matter, he did have his own considerations, but the fact is that he did not intervene in time to save Zhou Boyan's life.

He had many reasons to explain...but no matter what, at this point, he, the master, owed Wu Chi.

As for the Immortal Soul Ancestor...that has always been a worry in his heart.

When he was in the lower world, he was a man of great spirit and guidance in the world. It can be said that he single-handedly stopped the war between good and evil. He said that he only asked about good and evil, not good and evil, and became a legend.

But how can one distinguish between good and evil in the things in this world?

The Immortal Soul Ancestor was his best friend, but because of practicing the way of the soul, his temperament became more and more cruel, and he slaughtered wantonly for the sake of practice!

At that time, in the eyes of Emperor Donghua, he could not distinguish between good and evil, so even though he was in pain, he still personally suppressed the Immortal Soul Ancestor in Donghua Immortal Mansion, which was even very irresponsible. He threw the hot potato of the Immortal Soul Ancestor to his successor.

At that time, he really believed that the Immortal Soul Ancestor's way was wrong!

But after he ascended, when he truly became a disciple of Taoist Ancestor and practiced the Way of Heaven, he truly discovered that things in this world seemed to be far more complicated than he had imagined!

Heaven is ruthless!

The great road leads to the sky, so where is the distinction between good and evil?

Even if the Immortal Soul Ancestor slaughters the whole world, who can say that his way must be wrong?

Therefore, even when the Immortal Soul Ancestor went on a killing spree through the battle between immortals and demons, he did not take action after all. Instead, he used Wu Chi's hands to trap the Immortal Soul Ancestor on the Cang Qiong Star.

On the Cangqiongxing, Wu Chi tore open the scar bloodyly, as if he stabbed his Taoist heart with a knife!

It was painful, but it also made him gradually realize that the reason why he had not been able to successfully enter the realm of Star Lord before was probably because of this unsatisfactory Taoist heart.

What's worse is that now, a similar choice is before him again.

Should a person's life and death really be insignificant to the overall situation of the world?

No distinction between good and evil, only good and evil!

But...what is good and what is evil?

Emperor Donghua vaguely felt that only by truly understanding this could he truly make a breakthrough.

Only in this way can he understand what he should do next.

This change in the way of heaven has just begun. The next dispute is the key to the direction of the way of heaven.

It's just... there really isn't much time left for him!
