Chapter 627: Ghost Qi Cave Heaven
talismans, and more than half were injured!This result not only greatly exceeded the expectations of the Xue Clan and the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, but also made Jin Yifei's lungs about to explode wit...The entire Wendaosong Sect, including the demon clan brought by Old Hei, had over a hundred disciples who understood the way of formations. This was quite a surprise to Jiang Yun.
This way, he can save a lot of time.
If he could just teach these over a hundred people how to deploy, then these people could completely disperse and go on to teach others.
Even then, he came up with an even more ingenious idea!
Gingercloud's mastery of formations stemmed from Xue Mocheng's Nine Snow Interlocking Formation.
The Nine Snow Linked Arrays consist of nine small arrays.
Even the simplest, consisting of only nine snowflakes arranged in the first small formation, contains within it eighty-one variations.
Every snowflake contains within itself nine variations.
However, whether it was in the Yaoshhen Sect or the Netherworld, although the formations commanded by Jiang Yun and arranged by others seemed formidable, in reality, the nine people who formed the formation did not change individually.
This also leads to only nine variations in the formation they compose.
It's not that Jiang Yun was hiding anything, but those people simply didn't understand formations.
It's impossible for each person to master all nine variations.
But now that there are over a hundred people who understand formations, Ginger Cloud decided to select the nine with the highest proficiency in formation techniques and cultivation. He would have them truly set up the complete first formation.
In this case, with nine people forming the formation, there would be eighty-one variations, and its power would naturally increase significantly.
A moment can equal nine.
Even if these nine people only possess the strength of the Pulse Connecting Realm, the formation they create could at least trap, or even kill, a cultivator of the Heaven's Core Realm.
If it were the strength of a blessed land realm, then it would be able to trap Dao Spirit cultivators.
If it were the strength of a Heavenly Cave realm, then it would even be possible to trap Earth Guardian realm cultivators!
It's a pity that out of these hundreds of people, only three have reached the Dongtian realm. So, with no other choice, Jiang Yun had to settle for choosing nine disciples from the Fudi realm.
As for the rest of the disciples, Jiang Yun only spent half a day teaching them how to set up the formation.
And these nine people, Jiang Yun spent a full ten days helping them master the nine variations of their respective skills.
As for the power of their nine-person formation, it did not disappoint Jiang Yun.
To test the power of the formation, after these nine people arranged the formation, Jiang Yun deliberately let Lan Huashao and Lao Hei enter the formation to try and break it.
Ultimately, despite Lan Huazhao's best efforts, he nearly met his end. Lao Hei spent a full half hour attempting to break through the encirclement but failed.
Although Lao Hei retained his strength, even if he used all of it, this formation composed of nine people could at least last for half an hour.
...In the midst of battle, even holding back a powerful Daoist for just a moment could completely turn the tide!
Ginger smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the nine people. "From today on, your formation will be called the Blood Formation, fueled by blood!"
This name, of course, was taken by Jiang Yun in reference to the Nine Snow Linked Formation.
He also hopes that one day, he will be able to set up a complete Nine Blood Chain Array.
First blood is stronger than first blood!
"In the time you have left, besides continuing to familiarize yourselves with the formations, I expect you to diligently cultivate. If all of you can break through to the Heavenly Aperture Realm, then once the Blood Array is unleashed, it will be enough to slay Dao Spirits and imprison Earth Protectors!"
"Yes!"
Although nine people responded in unison, there was unease in their hearts.
Breaking through to the Cave Heaven Realm, how easy is it!
How could they know, seeing their method work, and Ginger Cloud became determined to refine pills for everyone, helping them break through as soon as possible.
Because of the appearance of formations, not only can they increase power, but most importantly, they can increase everyone's safety.
If these ordinary disciples were able to arrange formations when dealing with the Moriro Ghost Prison before, then saving Dao Tianyou and others wouldn't have cost hundreds of lives!
However, regarding the matter of alchemy, Jiang Yun was not prepared to start now. Instead, he planned to wait until after arriving at the Yaoshenzong and observing their attitude before proceeding further.
Now, he still has one thing to solve!
Ginger Cloud entered his own cave dwelling, waving his hand and throwing out a few spirit stones. After setting up several simple isolation formations, he turned his divine sense inward, towards the place of his life fire!
In the midst of the raging flames, a face emerged—Ghostly Might!
That day, after Dao Tianyou's sword strike shattered the Senro Ghost Eye, Gui Li acted decisively, abandoning Fang Yu Xuan's body and transforming into ghostly energy to flee.
But Ginger Cloud's hatred for him had reached its peak, how could she possibly let him get away
Even though his body was unable to move, he forcefully summoned a Heaven-Shattering Avatar and directly absorbed it into his body, placing it within the flames of his life essence.
Although the Ghost Clan is extremely difficult to kill, Jiang Yun's life fire is incredibly powerful. Under its constant burning, the several wisps of ghostly energy that Ghost Li had transformed into were burned down to just the last one!
In addition to the Ghost Qi absorbed when Jiang Yun broke through the formation in Senluo City, Jiang Yun had a bold idea.
Gather the ghostly energy and condense it into your own eighth inner realm.
Ghostly Heaven!
If Jiang Yun's thoughts come true, then besides the Five Elements, Chaos, and Dao Patterns, he would be able to control one more kind of power.
And once successful, Jiang Yun would also become the first immortal in history to be born as a spirit but able to control the power of ghosts.
Of course, there are many uncertainties in this approach.
It's even extremely risky, after all, no creature has ever absorbed ghost energy before, let alone condensed a cave heaven with it.
If you're not careful, you could even end up becoming a ghost completely.
However, Jiang Yun's current strength was obtained at the risk of his life. So even if it was dangerous, he had to give it a try.
Upon seeing Jiang Yun's arrival, Ghostly Fury's face contorted in intense terror.
The Ghost Clan is not immortal and there are many ways to kill them, such as the life fire that Jiang Yun possesses now.
Feeling the threat of death, naturally made the ghosts extremely terrified.
"Ginger Cloud, let me go! I'll agree to any condition you have, just please let me go!"
“I am no ordinary person. My father, the ruler of Ghost Hell, serves under the Lord of Samsara's Underworld, controlling the path of life and death. If you let me go, my father will surely reward you greatly.”
Although Gingercloud always wore a stoic expression, hearing Gui Li's words sent ripples through his heart.
Originally, the Dead World was not a single world, but many worlds. The Underworld was just one of them.
Moreover, with the formidable strength of Ghost Prison's master, to be merely a subordinate under the Boundary Lord, how powerful would the ruler of the Death Realm, the Boundary Lord, truly be
"Also, if you're looking for a deceased loved one or friend, as long as they haven't completely dissipated into nothingness, we have the ability to find them. We can even help them return to the mortal realm."
It has to be said, Gui Li's words finally saved his own life and made Jiang Yun change her mind about killing him!
Because this sentence, it's so tempting!
The boundary between life and death, where yin and yang are forever separated, yet the ghost father and son are able to find the deceased in the underworld.
As for rebirth and returning to the world of the living, Jiang Yun didn't quite believe it. However, there was one death that he could never get over.
Even if there was a sliver of a chance to save the other person, he was willing to pay any price.
That's the Third Senior Brother, Xuan Yuan Xing!
However, Jiang Yun was not prepared to tell Gui Li about his wish now, nor was he prepared to tell him that he had decided to temporarily spare his life.
He simply said calmly, "Tell me, how does your ghost race cultivate using ghostly energy!"
First published on the Traditional Chinese Novels websiteng Daozong came to consult the oracle and inquire about Jiang Yun's whereabouts, Situ Jing was also informed by Buyi Nan that Dongfang Bo, herself, and Jiang Yun would all face a life-or-death calamit...
