Chapter 507: The Secret of Breaking the Formation
Liu Yan'er's eyes flashed with madness and determination. She knew that she was in a desperate situation today. Since she could not achieve her goal, she would drag Yun Yao to be buried with her. At this critical moment, she did not hesitate to detonate the blood soul pill in her body. In an instant, a violent and evil force erupted with her as the center. The blood-colored light was like a surging wave, sweeping in all directions. Wherever it passed, the space seemed to be burned and distorted.
Yun Yao sensed this deadly threat, and her heart was alarmed. However, just as she was preparing to defend herself with all her strength, the familiar cold prompt sound of the system suddenly rang in her mind: "Triggered the hidden task - Breaker. Task description: The Blood Demon Sect relied on the Nine Palace Blood Demon Array for this raid, which has hidden mysteries. If you can break this array under the impact of the Blood Soul Pill explosion, you will turn the tide of the battle and get rich rewards. Tips: Use modern knowledge to find the eye of the array, sort out the veins, and break the balance."
Yun Yao didn't have time to think, her eyes quickly swept across the battlefield. She saw the Nine Palaces Blood Demon Formation covering the sky above the sect, blood light filled the air, the formation patterns flickered, like a giant beast choosing its prey. The demon cultivators shuttled freely in the formation, their attack power increased greatly, but their own disciples were suppressed and suffered terribly.
Yun Yao took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She thought of the mathematics she had learned in modern times, especially the principles of matrices and geometry, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to her mind. Under the impact of the Blood Soul Pill's explosion, she flashed and flew towards a direction in the formation.
At this moment, Chu Mochen was fighting fiercely with the Blood Demon Sect Master. He caught a glimpse of Yun Yao's actions from the corner of his eye, and his heart tightened, fearing that she would encounter an accident. But he had absolute trust in Yun Yao and knew that she must have her own plans, so he could only grit his teeth and speed up the offensive, trying to contain the Blood Demon Sect Master and buy time for Yun Yao.
Yun Yao shuttled through the battlefield where blood and sword energy intertwined, relying on the agility granted by the system and her own courage to avoid fatal attacks. She approached a corner of the Nine Palace Blood Demon Formation and carefully observed the flow of the formation patterns. These formation patterns were like complex circuit diagrams, seemingly chaotic, but actually concealed rules.
She discovered that the flashing frequency of the array pattern had subtle differences at certain nodes, just like a series in mathematics, with a specific period. Yun Yao's mind moved, and she guessed that these nodes might be the key to cracking the array. She closed her eyes and constructed a three-dimensional matrix model in her mind, matching the array patterns she saw one by one.
As she thought more deeply, she became more certain of her judgment. The lines formed by those special nodes showed a strange symmetry in the matrix, and the center of symmetry was most likely the center of the array. Yun Yao opened her eyes, and a firm look flashed in her eyes. She swung the long sword in her hand, and a sharp sword energy slashed at one of the key nodes.
The moment the sword energy hit the node, the entire Nine Palaces Blood Demon Formation trembled violently, and the blood light was like boiling blood, surging wildly. The demon cultivators noticed the movement of the formation and showed panic on their faces, but when the roar of the Blood Demon Sect Master came, they could only suppress their fear and continue to attack.
Yun Yao did not stop. She followed the veins of the array and attacked several key nodes in succession. With each attack, the trembling of the array became more violent, and the blood light became dimmer. However, the impact of the blood soul pill explosion became stronger and stronger. She gradually found it difficult to support herself, and her body was shaky in the violent energy fluctuations.
Seeing this, Chu Mochen was extremely anxious. He ignored his own safety and forcibly performed a powerful "Burning Sky Flame Slash", forcing the Blood Demon Sect leader back several steps, and then flew towards Yun Yao. On the way, he used his own spiritual power to prop up a protective light curtain for Yun Yao to help her resist some of the impact.
Yun Yao felt Chu Mochen's help, and her heart warmed up, as if her strength had returned to her body. She continued to focus on breaking the formation, the long sword in her hand shone brightly, and her sword moves became more and more fierce. After another precise attack, the Nine Palace Blood Demon Formation finally made a dull roar, and the light at the center of the formation became brighter, as if it was about to collapse.
However, at this moment, the Blood Demon Sect Master realized that the formation was about to be broken, and he roared wildly, burning his own blood and essence, and injected a powerful magic power into the formation, trying to stabilize the situation. This magic power was like a raging torrent, instantly offsetting most of Yun Yao's previous achievements, and the formation regained some of its fierce power.
Yun Yao's face was pale, and blood was oozing from the corners of her mouth, but there was no sign of retreat in her eyes. She looked at the energy in the array's center that had become violent again, and suddenly an idea came to her. Since she couldn't break through the array's center directly, why not use this energy for her own benefit? She remembered the principle of energy conversion in physics, and came up with a bold plan.
Yun Yao adjusted the circulation of her spiritual power, matching her own spiritual power with the energy fluctuations of the formation to form a subtle resonant frequency. Then, she guided this violent energy towards the direction of the underground spiritual vein. The underground spiritual vein contained a huge and pure spiritual energy, like a huge energy treasure house, which usually provided the sect with a steady stream of cultivation resources.
Under Yun Yao's control, the energy of the blood demon array and the underground spiritual veins attracted each other. When the two came into contact, a dazzling light shot up from the ground. In the light, the blood-red demonic energy and the pure spiritual energy intertwined and collided with each other. Yun Yao gritted her teeth and tried her best to maintain the guidance of energy. She wanted to make these two forces reach a delicate balance in the collision, so that the demonic energy would not backfire on the spiritual veins, and she could use the power of the spiritual veins to completely suppress the demonic energy.
As time went by, the power of the underground spiritual vein gradually gained the upper hand. The originally surging demonic energy slowly dissipated under the purification of the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein. The Nine Palaces Blood Demon Formation lost the support of the demonic energy and collapsed, turning into countless streams of light that dissipated in the air.
The situation on the battlefield was reversed in an instant. The demon cultivators who lost the blessing of the formation were panicked and their fighting power was greatly reduced. The morale of the sect disciples was greatly boosted, and they took the opportunity to launch a fierce counterattack. Seeing this, Chu Mochen was full of passion. He and Yun Yao looked at each other, and then rushed into the enemy formation together, launching a hearty slaughter.
The leader of the Blood Demon Sect looked at the collapsed formation and his defeated subordinates, his eyes were bloodshot. He knew that the situation was hopeless, but the hatred in his heart made him unwilling to give up. He rushed towards Yun Yao regardless of everything, the magic weapon in his hand flashed a strange light, trying to make a final dying struggle.
How could Chu Mochen let him succeed? He flashed and blocked Yun Yao, and the long sword in his hand collided heavily with the magic weapon of the Blood Demon Sect Master. The two of them fought back and forth in the air, and every collision erupted with a deafening sound, and the powerful energy fluctuations tore the surrounding air into cracks.
Yun Yao took a breather in the back. She looked at Chu Mochen who was fighting fiercely with the leader of the Blood Demon Sect, and her heart was full of worry. But she knew that the battle must be ended as soon as possible to avoid more trouble. She looked around the battlefield and found that some demon cultivators were still resisting, so she raised her spiritual power, joined the battle, and assisted the sect disciples to clean up the remaining enemies.
With the joint efforts of Chu Mochen and Yun Yao, the demon cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect were slaughtered. The leader of the Blood Demon Sect was also seriously injured by Chu Mochen's powerful "Chaos Demon Slash", and fell to the ground, dying. He looked at Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, his eyes full of resentment and hatred, but in the end he slowly closed his eyes, ending his sinful life.
This thrilling battle finally came to an end. Although the sect suffered heavy losses, fortunately, its foundation was intact. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at the devastated sect with mixed feelings. They knew that the road ahead was still long and there were more challenges waiting for them, but as long as the two of them worked hand in hand, nothing could stop them from moving forward.
After this battle, Yun Yao not only successfully resolved the sect's catastrophe, but also received a generous reward from the system for breaking the formation. With the dual blessing of battle and reward, her cultivation showed signs of a breakthrough, and a more powerful force was dormant in her body, waiting for the moment to burst out. And the relationship between her and Chu Mochen also became deeper and deeper, as solid as a rock in the test of life and death.
