Chapter 401 The Chi-Killing Formation

Chapter 401 The Chi-Killing Formation

"No... no..." Inkforge responded with a slight hesitation, shaking his head.

Before he could finish his sentence, Casey grabbed his wrist and forcefully twisted it, causing his right wrist to immediately break.

"Ah..." Inkforge cried out in pain.

"If you don't start talking straight, I'll break every bone in your body!" Casey spoke sternly.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Inkforge hurriedly began. "Inside the stone cave, there's God-Emperor's Chi-Killing Formation. It seems to have been set up by a powerful War God-Emperor who didn't want to be disturbed by future generations... Ink Pavilion didn't know about it initially. Hundreds of our people entered, and all of them were killed by the Chi-Killing Formation..."

"War God-Emperor's Chi-Killing Formation?" Hearing his words, Casey and the others couldn't help but inhale sharply.

A true God-Emperor Realm expert, if determined, could condense their Chi even after death, capable of killing without a physical presence. In Place of Darkness, the War Emperor who had fallen decades ago still possessed enough Chi to slay a War Grandmaster.

It was evident that the War God-Emperor's Chi was powerful enough to kill a War Emperor. If it were a peak-stage War God-Emperor, their Chi could likely even slay early-stage War God-Emperors.

"You couldn't handle it either?" Casey continued to look at Inkforge.

"I... I could barely get in..." Inkforge replied.

"The War God-Emperor who fell here is probably at least in the mid-stage, or the Chi energy wouldn't be this strong."

"What's inside the stone cave?" Azure Dragon inquired.

"There's only a stone coffin inside... nothing else." Inkforge replied with difficulty. "The... the stone coffin is sealed with something we can't open."

"You brought people from those major sects here, not just to ask for help in opening the coffin, right?" Billy remarked.

"The Chi-Killing Formation inside, it's not limitless. Each time it kills, it weakens..." Inkforge didn't conceal the truth.

"Ink Pavilion certainly has its methods." Azure Dragon commented in a disdainful voice.

Inkforge's implication was clear-they wanted the disciples of the major sects to act as human shields. With thousands of people entering, the Emperor's Chi would likely be depleted. "Boss, what should we do?" Vermilion Bird asked Billy.

"Billy, why don't we give it a try?" Ivy Chandler suggested with a glint in her eye.

"Alright," Billy nodded slightly.

Ivy Chandler then raised her sword and sliced off a protruding rock at the top of the wall. After the rock fell, about the size of a washbasin, Billy sent it flying into the cave with a powerful gust of wind.

As the rock reached the bend, several strands of Chi, as substantial as matter, slashed out from within, instantly shattering the rock into pieces.

Judge and Soul Chaser both yelled out, while Casey and the others' expressions also changed slightly.

Those Chi strands were strong enough to kill any early-stage War Emperor. The Chi at the entrance was already formidable; the interior must be even more terrifying.

"Boss, should we throw more rocks inside to deplete the Chi?" Stout suggested.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Inkforge was choked by that idea. Casey and the others turned their heads away, not wanting to engage in the conversation. It was evident that the strength of the Chi was such that even if they threw in the large rock under their feet, it probably wouldn't be enough to exhaust it.

"Billy, maybe we two should go in together?" asked Ivy.

"Alright." Billy agreed and added, "But you don't need to take action, just follow me."

"Okay." Ivy replied.

"Boss, that Chi is strong, are you sure..." Night Orchid and Frostblade both interrupted simultaneously.

"It's fine, you guys stay here, Ivy and I will go inside to take a look." Billy said with a smile, cutting off their concerns.

Since Inkforge had managed to enter earlier, he and Ivy should have no problems. With that said, Billy led Ivy deeper into the cave. Their auras immediately surged, forming a robust defensive Chi. "Boss, be careful, both of you!" the others couldn't help but worry.

"It's okay, don't worry." Ivy Chandlerreplied with a faint smile.

In no time, the two of them reached a bend in the passage.

The ear-piercing sound of rushing wind followed, and strands of God-Emperor's Chi struck their defensive Chi cover. Although it wasn't enough to break through their defenses, it forced them to step back several large steps, and their inner Chi churned.

"It's getting interesting!" Billy squinted his eyes. "Let's have a meeting with this War God-Emperor powerhouse!"

He then drew the Bloodshadow Fury Blade from his side and also instructed Ivy, "Don't worry about me, just watch my back.

"Be careful!" Ivy nodded and reminded.

"Hmm." Billy agreed and once again advanced into the cave. At the same time, the Bloodshadow Fury Blade unleashed waves of blade Chi against the God-Emperor's Chi.

Boom!

The clashes between their attacks

created deafening noises, and the resulting shockwaves rippled through the surroundings. Large and small rocks fell from the walls on both sides. The two continued forward until they reached the large space that Inkforge had mentioned earlier. It was the size of a football field and about thirty meters high.

In the center of the space was indeed a massive stone coffin, about ten meters long and five to six meters wide, with the height of an average adult. Apart from the stone coffin, there were nine irregularly. shaped stone pillars in the space, and aside from that, there was nothing else. The entire space was filled with icy Chi energy, and the sharp sound of the wind blowing through it was incessant. The atmosphere was thick with

murderous intent.

The power of the Chi here was several orders of magnitude

ven

stronger than what they had encountered in the corridor. The entire space felt like a giant meat grinder With such formidable God-Emperor's Chi, even a mid-stage War Emperor would be instantly torn apart upon entry. Ink Pavilion's actions were truly ruthless, and if the disciples of the major sects were brought in, it would

undoubtedly result in a mountain of

corpses and rivers of blood. Content

"Ivy, these stone pillars may have some tricks to them, let's take a closer look." Billy observed for a moment before speaking with a serious tone.

"Alright."

The two of them approached one of the stone pillars, and Billy's eyes narrowed as he struck it with a backhanded slash. As expected, apart from leaving a visible scar on the pillar, nothing else happened.

Ivy was slightly astonished. It was worth noting that Billy's previous strike could have cut through steel, yet the pillar remained intact. Clearly, there was something special about these pillars.

"Billy, I think I've figured it out!" After a while, Ivy raised her voice. "These stone pillars should be arranged in a formation!"
