Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16440
Chapter 16438. The Battle Begins
The Blood Slaughter Sect was indeed going to build the Three Talents Formation, and they had already prepared for it. Therefore, they quickly completed the formations in the three cities, and simultaneously sent the Thousand Machine Star to various locations along the first defensive line.
Wen Jing thought the Blood Slaughter Sect would send the Creation Golden Wheel to various locations along the first defensive line, but in the eyes of the Blood Slaughter Sect, the Creation Golden Wheel might not be as useful as the Thousand Machine Star. Of course, this refers to the most common kind of Creation Golden Wheel in the Divine Kingdom. If it were the improved Creation Golden Wheel from the Blood Slaughter Sect, that would be a different story; those Creation Golden Wheels were quite useful.
The improved Creation Golden Wheel from the Blood Slaughter Sect could rotate three-dimensionally. It was somewhat like a simplified, enlarged version of the Heavenly Sphere, but it didn’t have the Heavenly Sphere’s computational ability. It could only be used as a formation, but this improved Creation Golden Wheel could directly transform into three-dimensional spherical formations, its power incomparable to planar formations.
This new Creation Golden Wheel is quite powerful. It can be transformed into not only magic arrays but also array groups. The Blood Slaughter Sect has also created many of these improved Creation Golden Wheels. If this Creation Golden Wheel is only used for setting up magic arrays and not for direct combat, it is indeed more useful than the Thousand Machine Star. However, if it is used for combat, the Creation Golden Wheel is somewhat inferior, since it can only be used to release spells, and its offensive methods for setting up magic arrays are far less than those of the Thousand Machine Star.
However, it is not the time to use this improved Creation Golden Wheel yet. Therefore, they are using the Thousand Machine Star to set up magic arrays at the first defensive line. The Thousand Machine Star can also be used as a magic array, but its array transformations are not as numerous as those of the Creation Golden Wheel, since it is not its professional application. However, it is still fine to use it temporarily.
This wasn’t the first time the Blood Slaughter Sect had set up a formation like this, so everything went smoothly. The three most crucial nodes were captured, forming the three main array eyes. Thousand Machine Stars were placed at all the other smaller array eyes and adjusted accordingly. All that remained was to activate the formation.
Although this wasn’t the Blood Slaughter Sect’s first time building such a formation, they were still extremely cautious. Before activating it, they conducted tests to ensure that every Thousand Machine Star was in its designated position and functioning correctly. Only then could their Three Talents Formation truly be established.
Actually, calling this a Three Talents Formation isn’t entirely accurate; it should be called a Three Talents Formation Group. This group is composed of individual formations, but the Blood Slaughter Sect uses these individual formations as array symbols, making the Three Talents Formation Group even more powerful.
The Three Talents Formation isn’t a simple formation; it’s actually a combination of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. This formation possesses immense power, containing the transformations of Yin and Yang, and the transformations of the Five Elements—it can be described as infinitely variable.
At this moment, Chang Jun was standing in the command hall of Wuwei City. Beside him stood an elder of the Shenji Hall. Chang Jun looked at the projection and asked, “Is everything ready?”
The elder of the Shenji Hall replied, “Yes, it’s ready.”
Chang Jun said in a deep voice, “Good, then start it.” The elder of the Shenji Hall responded, and then with a flick of his hand, a compass appeared in his hand. He then touched the compass.
As he touched the compass, a beam of light shot straight into the sky from Wuwei City, Jushi City, and Dongtian City. The light from Jushi City was yellow, from Wuwei City it was white, and from Dongtian City it was red. Subsequently, white lights also shot into the sky from various locations along the first defensive line. These lights were quickly spotted by the people at the various bases along the first defensive line. They all looked at the white lights with some confusion. Because the lights were very high, they could be seen even from a distance from their bases. However, they did not know where the lights came from or why they appeared in the sky.
Of course, they immediately reported the matter to the managing elders of each base. These managing elders, of course, didn’t dare make a decision on their own, so they immediately reported it to the commanding elders of each base. Unfortunately, almost all the commanding elders were from major sects, families, the military, or the royal family, and all of them were on the second line of defense. However, the managing elders had their own communication arrays, so they used these arrays to report the matter to them.
Upon hearing this, those elders immediately reported it to their respective sects and families, and of course, to Gongliang Juewen as well.
Just as they reported the matter, the white lights that shot into the sky all converged on the three beams of light. Soon, these lights intertwined and transformed into three-colored light, which spread out along the first defensive line. As the light spread, everyone in the divine kingdom at the first defensive line quickly sensed that something was wrong. They felt an immense pressure coming from the white light. They then discovered that their illusionary stone array, teleportation array, and communication array were all unusable. Moreover, the pressure on them was increasing, as if a rope was wrapping around them, making it extremely difficult for them to even struggle, let alone move.
Of course, some powerful kingdom-level experts were still able to move. They wanted to escape the first line of defense before being completely entangled by this force. Finding the teleportation array unusable, they tried to fly away, but they quickly realized they couldn’t. The pressure was even greater when they traveled from the underground base to the surface. As they flew towards the second line of defense, they found the pressure increased the further they flew. Some couldn’t even reach the boundary of the first line of defense before being trapped there. Others managed to reach the boundary, only to find it blocked by a protective shield, preventing them from flying further.
Everyone was trapped at the first line of defense. At this point, the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples finally made their move. They flew to the various bases, gathered everyone there, and then implanted necromancy runes into them, turning them into their own people.
From the perspective of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples, there was no need for further persuasion. Turning them into the undead race would make them their own, and since they were practically inexhaustible resurrections, becoming undead wouldn’t affect them at all. So, they decided to simply turn them into undead.
Wu Qian was also at the second defensive line. Upon hearing the report from his subordinates, he immediately wanted to send someone to the first defensive line to check the situation. However, he discovered that the teleportation array and communication array there were unusable. He immediately dispatched someone to the first defensive line, and soon his subordinates reported that the first defensive line was covered by a three-colored light shield. They tried attacking it, but it was completely useless. Although the shield appeared semi-transparent and thin, their attacks didn’t even register. Keep in mind that Wu Qian had sent out a Kingdom-level expert; even a Kingdom-level expert’s attack had no effect, demonstrating the shield’s immense strength.
Wu Qian immediately reported the matter to Gongliang Juewen, who then summoned Qingxuan and the others to the main hall of Wukong City. Qingxuan and the others arrived at the hall as soon as possible, only to find Gongliang Juewen already waiting for them. This was the first time they had seen Gongliang Juewen, the emperor, who, according to etiquette, should have been the last to arrive. It was unexpected that he was already waiting for them, showing how anxious Gongliang Juewen was this time.
Once everyone had arrived, Gongliang Juewen looked at them and said, “I think everyone knows why I called you all here today, right? Minister Wen, I want to apologize to you. Last time, I didn’t heed your words and didn’t order everyone at the first defensive line to retreat to the second. That was my fault.”
Wen Jing quickly stood up and said to Gongliang Juewen, “Your Majesty is too kind. It wasn’t Your Majesty’s fault at all. At the time, I was only guessing. To order everyone to evacuate the first defensive line based on a guess is indeed unlikely, given the significant impact. Even I didn’t think it necessary to evacuate everyone from the first defensive line.” “If His Majesty hadn’t allowed the withdrawal of most of the kingdom-level experts from the first defensive line to the second, our losses would have been even greater. Therefore, His Majesty not only did not make a mistake, but made the most correct decision.”
Everyone else nodded in agreement. This matter was indeed not Gongliang Juewen’s fault. They had agreed with Gongliang Juewen at the time, and even now, thinking back, if they were in Gongliang Juewen’s position, they probably wouldn’t have dared to order the withdrawal of most of the kingdom-level experts to the second defensive line. That required a great deal of courage. Therefore, not only should Gongliang Juewen not be blamed, but they should be grateful to him.
Gongliang Juewen waved his hand and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about what happened before. Whether it was right or wrong, it’s done and there’s no way to change it. Now we need to think about how to deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect’s formation. Minister Wen, you said before that the Blood Slaughter Sect set up a Three Talents Formation there, is that right?”
Wen Jing nodded and said, “It is indeed a Three Talents Formation. There are elders from our sect at the front line who have personally gone to see it. Judging from the protective shield emitted by the formation, it is indeed a Three Talents Formation, there’s no mistake.”
“I remember that the Three Talents Formation is the most basic formation, right? Does that mean that it’s very easy to break this kind of formation?”
