Chapter 1769 Bald Bird
Chapter 1769 Bald Bird
Chen Wanli stood atop the city wall, coldly watching the Phoenix King's attack. The overwhelming crimson flames condensed in the void into a giant fire phoenix.
Like a dazzling fireworks effect in the darkness, it illuminated the entire city.
The fiery phoenix swooped down and crashed violently into the defensive array of Wangmang City.
The energy shield surrounding the city's protective formation trembled violently, and then, like paper unable to withstand external forces, it shattered into pieces.
"A mere small formation dares to use it as a shield! How laughable!"
Phoenix's roar echoed, tinged with mockery.
In its view, Chen Wanli's verbal sparring on the city wall was nothing more than relying on the city's protective formation.
Almost all the clans of the gods have protective formations. For a large clan like the Wangmang clan, these formations can indeed cause some trouble for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.
However, the Phoenix Clan is not included.
The Phoenix Clan's claws are comparable to divine weapons, and their fire is the fire of primordial light, containing powerful life force.
In other words, it has the sharpest weapons and the most powerful regenerative abilities.
Just then, the wings that Chen Wanli had cut off were visibly regenerating.
Therefore, the Phoenix Clan was not afraid of the city's protective formation.
At this moment, all the members of the Xiangshou clan took a deep breath.
They never expected that Ho-Oh would be an enemy, not a friend.
As a powerful clan specializing in array formations, the Xiangshou clan knew that the Phoenix clan was not afraid of most large arrays.
"Brother Chen, the Phoenix Clan..."
Xiang Qing was about to remind Chen Wanli that they must not rely solely on formations to fight the Phoenix Clan.
But the next second.
From five directions within Wangmang City, beams of light shot into the sky, their dazzling five colors merging at the city's center.
The invisible power of the magic array converged layer upon layer, forming several colorful vortexes in the void.
The vortex spun like a turbine, stirring up the energy within the void.
It formed a chaotic and disordered violent energy field, which immediately swallowed up the Phoenix King's attack and re-condensed a five-colored barrier in the void.
Feng Wang sneered. If he only focuses on defense, doesn't that mean his judgment is correct? Chen Wanli is exhausted and can no longer fight, so he wants to rely on his formation for support.
"I will tear this great formation apart and see what you have left to rely on! I will make sure you die a horrible death!"
Phoenix King stretched out its two sharp claws and fiercely tore at the colorful barrier.
Its claws can tear apart even a Nascent Soul cultivator's body. Even someone as powerful as Chen Wanli, whose physical body had become a Saint and whose chaotic body was pierced through by its claws.
It is naturally full of confidence.
However, just as the claws touched the multicolored barrier, beams of light suddenly emerged from the vortexes.
The beams of light resembled ropes, wrapping around Ho-Oh's sharp claws.
At first, the Phoenix King scoffed, thinking that as a divine beast, it possessed the divine power of the demon race, and ordinary trapping formations could not possibly hold it back.
But soon, its expression stiffened.
These beams of light intertwined layer upon layer, tearing off one layer only to create another in the blink of an eye, seemingly endless.
At first, Ho-Oh was able to keep tearing apart, but soon, the speed at which it tore apart could not keep up with the speed at which the beam was generated.
The claws were gradually bound tightly.
"Qiang!"
The phoenix's cry and roar revealed the Phoenix King's anger.
As it flapped its wings, intending to retreat, it discovered that five colorful vortexes had appeared beside it, forming a unique suction force.
The phoenix wings that could leap a hundred miles in a single flight could not escape this place no matter how it fluttered.
We're trapped!
A cold glint flashed in the Phoenix King's eyes, but he did not panic.
The formation itself consumes its own power, and similarly, the power of the formation base is also consumed.
With the fire of Benming, as long as the formation weakens, one can still break it.
At this moment, the formation changed again, and beams of light shot out from the vortex once more, continuously lashing at Phoenix King.
Phoenix King was trapped in a small space. Every time it tried to move or dodge, it had to fight against the suction force in the vortex of the formation, making it difficult to move.
Whipped repeatedly by beams of light, white streaks were left on its glossy feathers.
At first, Ho-Oh didn't take this level of whipping seriously, but it couldn't withstand the endless firing of these beams.
It's like wearing a bulletproof vest and having a gun pointed at you; even if the gun doesn't penetrate, the impact will feel like being hit with a stick.
Chen Wanli was still standing on the wall, a cold smile on his lips, clearly not in a hurry to make a move.
At this moment, everyone's expressions were extremely strange.
What a shameless tactic!
Trapped, worn down to death.
Chen Wanli's grand formation was able to trap the Phoenix King, which was truly beyond their expectations.
However, this kind of consumption will result in significant damage to the base and array materials.
After all, trapping a Nascent Soul cultivator and unleashing an attack that damages them requires an enormous amount of spiritual energy.
Ordinary materials simply cannot last long.
Why didn't Chen Wanli press his advantage?
Once the spiritual energy of the array materials is exhausted, won't the Phoenix King turn the tide and win?
After this thought arose, a voice reminded Chen Wanli.
Chen Wanli remained silent.
The Dragon King and Ye Zhenjun were right below the city at that moment.
They were also isolated outside by the formation.
Going up there is equivalent to breaking the formation together with Phoenix King.
Ye Zhenjun had absolutely no such idea.
The Dragon King, however, clearly wanted to wait and see.
Because in his eyes, a single formation couldn't possibly trap the Phoenix King!
"If he doesn't intervene, it's probably because he's willing but unable. When Feng Jiu goes into battle and tries to kill him, I'll step in to mediate. Do you think he'll feel indebted then?"
The Dragon King licked his lips, tilted his head, and muttered something.
Ye Zhenjun's lips twitched: "The Dragon King's thoughts are truly beyond the comprehension of others."
"I'm afraid if I don't let her kill him, Feng Jiu will be angry for a long time." The Dragon King stroked his chin.
Before he could finish speaking, he realized something was wrong; Feng Mao had started to "shed feathers."
A massive number of beams of light lashed out relentlessly, causing Ho-Oh's feathers to fall off one by one.
"Uh……"
Being beaten so badly in public that all its feathers fell out was a great humiliation for Phoenix King.
If this continues, Feng Jiu will definitely fight to the death!
The Dragon King felt that things were getting out of control.
Its original plan was to let the Phoenix King beat up Chen Wanli to vent his anger, and then he would step in to break up the fight, thus saving face for his embarrassing three moves, doing Chen Wanli a favor, and also persuading the stubborn Phoenix Jiu to leave.
but now……
This formation is incredibly resilient!
Why does it seem like my spiritual energy is endless...?
Time passed second by second, but the energy of the great array they had imagined did not run out.
On the contrary, Ho-Oh's condition became increasingly unstable due to his anger.
More and more of its beautiful feathers were knocked off, and what remained was dull and lifeless.
Gone is the majestic aura of a divine beast; all that remains is its disheveled state.
"Damn it! If you have the guts, then come and fight me! What kind of person are you? A treacherous villain!"
The Phoenix King could no longer hold back and began to curse, hoping to provoke Chen Wanli into a direct confrontation.
However, Chen Wanli not only had no intention of fighting, but also moved the chair that the Dragon King had used earlier and sat in a corner of the city wall, holding a fruit in his hand.
"Kacha!"
The Phoenix King was answered by the crunching sound of Chen Wanli biting into a spirit fruit.
This action is not very harmful, but extremely insulting.
Phoenix King was furious and began to use various methods to wear down the great formation, even starting to think about breaking it.
However, the effect was minimal, and the formation continued to operate stably.
"He draws upon the power of the earth's veins, connecting the veins of the earth within a thousand miles with a single thread. I'm afraid even the Phoenix King won't be able to break this formation!"
Ye Zhenjun uttered a quiet remark.
The Dragon King's expression changed slightly, and he immediately called out to Chen Wanli on the city wall, "Chen Wanli..."
Chen Wanli didn't even look up, and everyone on the city wall seemed not to have heard the Dragon King's words.
"???" The Dragon King was stunned for a moment, then shouted again, before he realized that Chen Wanli was not pretending to be deaf and dumb, but that the great formation was blocking the sound waves.
No, this is definitely intentional.
"This, this..." The Dragon King paced back and forth, his face extremely pale.
If it were to take direct action, it would be tantamount to joining forces with the Phoenix King to declare war on Chen Wanli.
If it doesn't intervene, the Phoenix King will truly be trapped by Chen Wanli.
"You bald bird, aren't you awesome? Keep being awesome!" Chen Wanli finished eating the fruit, casually tossed the pit aside, and pointed at the disheveled Phoenix King with a smile.
"Damn it, you bastard, do you dare to fight me head-on? Such behavior is disgraceful..."
"What do you mean, 'you're allowed to take advantage of me, but I'm not allowed to use my ultimate move'? I created the formation, and formation combat is my specialty. This is what I call a head-on confrontation!"
Chen Wanli raised a finger and shook it: "You're a scruffy bird, you're not only incompetent, but also stupid!"
"!!! I'm going to kill you!"
The crimson light emanating from the Phoenix King grew ever brighter. The Dragon King, seeing this crimson light, could no longer stand by and leaped into the formation.
"Brother Feng, don't be impulsive!"
The Dragon King roared and looked at Chen Wanli, saying, "Chen Wanli, you give me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Wanli interrupted, "Dragon King, have you come into my formation to take advantage of my vulnerability, just like the Phoenix King?"
"I appreciated the Dragon King's previous kindness, but I never expected the Dragon King to... Fine, fine, fine! Since that's the case, I can only protect myself!"
"???"
"???"
By this time, everyone was numb.
From the moment Ho-Oh entered the battle and was trapped, they were repeatedly shocked and horrified.
The fact that the Phoenix King had become a bald bird and was tormented by a powerful formation to the point of being unable to resist was already beyond the limits of their imagination.
Now that the Dragon King has entered the battle, Chen Wanli's reaction is even more outrageous. What, does he even want to fight the Dragon King?
Has Chen Wanli gone mad? What is he trying to do?
