Chapter 376 An opportunity presented itself, and he absolutely could not let it slip by.
But now they have the home-field advantage. The other teams are at a disadvantage.
Since following Zhong Lingxin, Zhong Qiu has never gone out to achieve any merit.
Therefore, he was eager to fight these three celestial beasts and demonstrate his combat prowess.
Zhong Lingxin shook her head: "Zhong Qiu, you are a water-dwelling mythical beast, so you can't compare your land-based combat strength with land-based mythical beasts. Besides, the Long-Nosed Immortal, the Nine-Headed Lion King, and the Golden Eagle King are all known for their combat prowess. You can't handle all three of them by yourself."
Zhong Qiu lowered his head in a somber mood, nodding with a bitter smile.
Zhong Lingxin looked at him and smiled, "Don't be discouraged, you have your uses. If I need to fight in the water, even three more Long-Nosed Immortals and the Nine-Headed Lion King wouldn't be as good as you."
Zhong Qiu felt a little better, but still said with a wry smile, "Naval warfare requires very little."
Zhong Lingxin shook her head: "No matter how many, as long as they play a role in the crucial moment. Take the Long-Nosed Immortal and the Nine-Headed Lion King for example, Huanhuan and Yueyue can handle them."
Zhong Qiu hurriedly said, "But Huanhuan and the others are no match for us right now!"
Zhong Lingxin smiled and said, "It's alright, we were just too worried. The fact that Lele hasn't made a move proves that the little ones can handle it."
Zhong Yongfu, with his arm around Zhong Lingxin's shoulder, said, "Me too, me too, I'm going to help Aunt Huanhuan and the others too."
Zhong Qiu glanced at him and said, "You, you're still too young. Grow up quickly."
Zhong Yongfu popped a handful of pills into his mouth, then turned and went into the time array to cultivate.
He now has an abundance of Phoenix Lotus, and his bloodline has been purified sufficiently; he's already a small dragon.
It's a pity he's still a little dragon. His aunts don't want to take him with them when they go on training missions, because they think he's too young and they'd have to take good care of him.
More than half of the time has passed in the secret realm.
Most of the immortals have come to the inner circle.
The legends of the nine-tailed fox, the golden phoenix, and the enchanting fox, among other mythical beasts, spread to the ears of every immortal who entered the secret realm.
All the immortals rushed towards the two groups of divine beasts.
That's a mythical beast!
Once you can get the contract, your combat power will double out of thin air.
Moreover, there are no bottlenecks in the advancement of divine beasts. As long as the divine beast continues to advance, it can also help its master advance. At least, advancing to the level of Immortal Lord is not a problem.
If you become a Celestial Lord, you'll at least get a Celestial City.
As the lord of a city, one will never have to worry about cultivation resources again.
He could also lead the immortals of a city, become a superior person, and no longer have to bow and bend down to stand by the roadside to let the city guards pass every day.
The immortals learned that the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Golden Phoenix had been forced into the territory of the Long-Nosed Immortal, so they all crowded to the outskirts of the Long-Nosed Immortal's territory, planning to seize the opportunity to enter and snatch the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Golden Phoenix.
But the Long-Nosed Immortal's innate supernatural power is the power of formations. He has set up countless formations of all sizes in his territory, including trapping formations, killing formations, bewildering formations, and illusion formations.
It's really difficult to get in.
Of the nearly 100,000 immortals who entered the secret realm, nearly 60,000 are still alive today.
These 60,000 people bypassed the territories of the Nine-Headed Lion King and the Golden Eagle King, and all gathered on the left side of the Long-Nosed Immortal's territory.
Soon, these 60,000 immortals were divided into six groups.
Among them, the immortals represented by the city lord's mansion of Guangyuan City accounted for the majority, numbering more than 30,000.
The other immortals were also divided into five groups according to their respective origins.
Among them, the immortals in Wubao City are the most numerous, numbering over ten thousand.
The remaining four immortals each numbered only a few thousand, a truly small number.
The immortals in Guangyuan City are numerous and highly skilled, occupying the best location—the most open area on the outer edge of the Long-Nosed Immortal's territory.
More than three hundred immortals who understand formations are working hard to break the formation.
Almost every formation master has a formation-breaking cone in their hand.
The array-breaking cone struck the formation, flashing bursts of white light and accompanied by a series of sizzling noises that made one's teeth ache.
After the flash and the sound, before the array masters could even raise their arms to recover their immortal energy, the places they had struck quickly healed.
The array masters wasted their efforts and did nothing of value.
Soon, the array masters gathered together to discuss how to break the array.
There are few array masters in the immortal realm, especially high-ranking array masters, who are extremely rare.
The array-breaking cones they have are barely usable for breaking through array plates or something.
However, the Long-Nosed Immortal used arrays made of materials such as array stones, array pillars, and array flags.
This formation has a self-repairing function.
The formation-breaking cones in their hands were no match for them.
With their current methods of breaking through, they won't be able to break through the Long-Nosed Immortal's protective array even when the secret realm closes.
The array masters quickly devised new ways to break the arrays, and they dismantled them one by one.
Although this method of breaking through is relatively slow, each time a formation is broken, its materials are collected. Since the formation cannot be repaired, each breakout is a one-off event.
The immortals looked at each other, saying that while the method was good, it required a high level of skill from the opposing mage.
The Long-Nosed Immortal's formation is at least of the seventh rank.
If they want to break the formation, they'd need to be at least a sixth-rank formation master.
Unfortunately, they don't have any sixth-rank formation masters.
The most powerful one right now is only a fifth-rank formation master.
However, the immortals have one more trick up their sleeve.
That is to use talismans to create the shape of a protective array, and then the array master slowly finds out the nodes and breaks them one by one.
There are two drawbacks to doing this: First, it wastes talismans, and since everyone is a poor immortal, they really can't afford to waste them. Second, if the formation master doesn't time it correctly, a set of hand seals might attract the formation's attack, potentially killing or injuring the formation master instead.
The immortals gritted their teeth and decided to break the formation. They produced talismans, and a fifth-rank formation master broke the formation in front. The smaller formations that were broken were then handed over to other smaller formation masters to dismantle.
The fifth-rank formation master agreed without hesitation.
Normally, he doesn't even have a chance to practice.
Now that the opportunity has presented itself, he absolutely cannot let it slip away.
Even if he gets nothing in the Wumeng Secret Realm, the opportunity to break the formation over several decades is still worthwhile.
Even the largest formation is ultimately composed of a series of smaller formations; he can figure it out slowly.
The immortals from the other five locations, upon seeing what the immortals in Guangyuan City were doing, expressed their desire to participate as well, reasoning that many hands make light work, and offered to provide talismans and array masters.
The immortals quickly reached an agreement, and the array masters gathered together, no longer holding array-breaking cones, but instead using array-testing plates.
As an explosive talisman struck the protective array, the array flashed with bursts of white light.
One beam of white light after another converged on the protective array, revealing one node after another.
The fifth-rank array master, full of passion, held up the array disc, approached the protective array, found a key point, and tentatively cast a few spells.
Under the influence of the technique, this point did not return to calm, but instead flickered even more violently.
The fifth-rank array master's face lit up with joy, and he cast several more spells, imprinting strands of immortal energy, some long and some short, some horizontal and some vertical, onto that node.
After a series of flashes, the node emitted a soft, crisp sound.
