Twelve Universes Killing Formation!
The stone statue was lonely after the three jade containers were taken as it was either guarding or waiting for something.
Yang Xiao quietly said, “If he really is a daoist, where are the others? Was an Inheritance left behind or something? He should know some profound things.”
Yang Tian grinned from cheek to cheek with the two jade containers in hand. Not even Yang Xiao could determine what they were made from. Yang Xiao told him to see what was inside.
Yang Tian slowly opened the second box. A murderous aura rushed out of the small gap. He saw a scene akin to a bloody apocalypse, invoking fear.
Yang Xiao, sauntering over, didn’t know what to expect after finding three divine materials and a blood phoenix divine stone in the first box.
Yang Tian licked his dry lips and slowly opened it again. Blood-red beams fired out. His qi and blood stirred, and he spat a mouthful of blood. A blood-red energy blasted into his body, leading to him coughing blood. The blood-red energy pillar was spine-chilling violent. He got to his feet. He looked into the interior of the container. The bright light forced him to squint.
Yang Xiao reached inside and pulled out an antique scroll with patterns on it. Inside was a killing formation. Anything it eroded would become a unique treasure. Ancient characters containing abilities were carved on it in a corner. The dao attribute was hard to describe.
Elated, hands shaking, thrilled, Yang Xiao read the text aloud. “Twelve Universes…”
Twelve Universes Killing Formation was among the top ten killing formations during the primordial era. It was an offensive type, human formation, meaning twelve people were required to deploy it. It was excruciatingly difficult to control. Its user was put in a situation where they were highly susceptible to becoming bloodthirsty. In the past, it was used to massacre an entire human city – a big one. It took several ancient elders on the continent to kill the twelve operators. It never appeared again ever since. That was what Yang Xiao read in ancient texts. He did attempt to locate the primordial era’s ruins to no avail.
“Is it a formidable formation, Uncle Xiao?”
Yang Xiao took his eyes off the formation and praised, “It is. It was infamous in the primordial era. There aren’t many that can match it in the present era.”
Yang Xiao rarely praised anything so highly. “Don’t get ahead of yourself. It’s impossible to utilise it at its true potential without true power. It’s similar to your brother’s Twelve Macrocosmic Formation. His could be derived from Twelve Universes and had its violent aura erased. However, that also diminished the formation’s output. Wait, Ba might’ve found the daoists’ ruins, then!”
Yang Ba only entered the cave by coincidence. At the time, he was fleeing from his hunters. The place resembled the place of a primordial deity. It took a lot of effort just to get to the outer perimeter. He tried to locate it after ascending to Battle King Realm; however, the deity was no longer there.
“Uncle Xiao, we also have a token here.” Yang Tian took said golden token out from the jade container. It was shiny gold.
Yang Xiao jolted out of his thoughts and glanced over to the text on the token. “That’s the ‘dao’ character. It must belong to daoists.”
Despite its extraordinary aura within, not one bit leaked out. The energy remained after countless ages, so it was noteworthy.
After fiddling with it for a while, Yang Xiao imbued with his own energy in an attempt to trigger the mysterious energy within. Unfortunately, nothing happened. “I think it’s an important object for daoists. I surmise one needs to learn their cultivation method to activate it. It’s been ages since one was found, though.”
“Uncle Xiao, is the formation scroll still functioning?”
“It might be only a scroll with the record of the formation, but once this murderous aura corroded it, it became a treasure.”
Yang Xiao tossed the scroll. A mysterious energy activated a red formation. Twelve Universes Killing Formation’s phantasmal layers descended, tearing the void apart. The formation summoned twelve blood-red people, sending chills down spines and inducing an urge to cough blood.
“The formation sure is incredible, though it can’t be used many times; even I had to jump through so many hurdles. The killing intent is practically born to nullify divine souls. Once the aura is used up, the formation scroll will be reduced an ordinary scroll.” Seeing Yang Tian’s disappointment, Yang Xiao added, “In saying that, given how strong it was just now, it could skin an Almighty Realm adept.”
Yang Tian chuckled. He stored the two items away then turned his attention to the last container. “Divine materials, killing formations. What’s in the box this time?”
