Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens – Ch. 329

Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation

Feng Haochen didn’t want to drag too many people into the immortality conspiracy. Xie Bulao wouldn’t have mentioned it if the balance of the five elements wasn’t brought up. Mu Yu’s concern was Feng Hacochen’s inability to protect himself as the situation stood. Whether for better or worse, the only thing delaying his death was Celestial Prison.

“In short, Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation works on the same principles as the balance of the five elements. Basically, we’ll be creating a Vacant Spirit Ground inside your body so that they spirit lord can’t control your conscious or influence your emotions. Meanwhile, you’ll be able to control the five elements outside of your body,” expounded Feng Haochen, taking them to the top of a relatively spacious mountain.

“Because it’s impregnable, the formation is an awful hassle to cast.” Xie Bulao kicked a rock, only for it to return to its original spot due to the laws of the place. He elaborated, “It’s not easy to cast Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation. The spirit lords in you aren’t just going to let us pin them down. They’ll wake up and resist. You’re going to need to fight back. Let me warn you now: if any of you lose to the spirit lord in you, I’ll off you without batting an eye and send them back into the reincarnation cycle. They haven’t recovered their full power yet, so I absolutely have what it takes to kill them.”

“I won’t kill anyone unless there’s no other option. Don’t worry. I have taught you all to cultivate a conscience you can live with and to remain grounded. As long as you do not stray, they cannot sway you,” Feng Haochen added.

“Qiao Xue, be careful,” Mu Yu reminded because she didn’t undertake Feng Haochen’s tutelage.

Qiao Xue bobbed her head. Frankly, she was nervous. She hadn’t mastered her control of her water spirit if she was honest. Nevertheless, she had faith in what the azure dragon fiend king imparted to her.

Xie Bulao picked up a rock and piece of metal, plucked a leaf and swiped a drop of water. He also wrapped up some lava with his spiritual energy. The five items necessary for the Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation violently tried to return to their original places due to the laws of the place. “I bloody knew I’d have to perform labour,” Xie Bulao bemoaned.

Xie Bulao was akin to a fountain of grey evil qi because he used his cultivation to contain and smelt the five items. Formations on the mountains activated in response to try and take back the items. He focused red energy to his right hand and hit the golden formation patterns, turning them red. The formation pattern was actually a collection of ancient text. Thanks to his evil qi, the characters manifested a pair of evil eyes each.

Never before had the quintet felt so insignificant watching Xie Bulao in action.

Feng Haochen and Ku Mu, floating in the sky, started to carve the formation out using their spiritual energy.

Ku Mu brought out his Purple Glow Ultimate Jade to supply support his spiritual qi reserve. White spiritual energy formed on his fingertips and sprayed. The spiritual energy followed a set path to connect and cross.

Feng Haochen, drawing spiritual energy from his Heaven and Earth Formation, pressed his index and middle fingers together. He wrote golden ancient text into the air using his spiritual energy. At the same time, he used his left hand to gradually combine them with Ku Mu’s drawings.

The formation that gave humanity a big advantage against elemental demons during wartime took a long time to set up. Ku Mu spent close to ten hours drawing. Once the shape was drawn, they spent another ten hours detailing it. Feng Haochen wrote millions of characters. Characters that Xie Bulao converted would soon escape and vanish somewhere. However, more text would continue to emerge.

“Mu Yu, come and help me finish the spiritual energy lines,” hollered Ku Mu.

Xie Bulao was almost done, while Ku Mu was still a long way away. If he couldn’t finish in time, Feng Haochen’s text couldn’t be inserted into the formation. They needed to finish before Xie Bulao did, or it would fail.

Mu Yu sped over to Ku Mu. The sight of a formation almost five hundred metres wide was amazing.

“You taught Mu Yu formations?” Feng Haochen asked, working simultaneously.

Ku Mu shot a glance over to Feng Haochen. “If my disciple didn’t know squat about formations, he’d be laughing stock. How can a disciple of two formation experts not know a thing about them?”

Feng Haochen shook his head. “You know I didn’t teach them formations in case the elemental demons woke up and scoured their memories, subsequently gaining our knowledge. If they find out the flaw in Nine Heavens Demon Sealing Formation, it’ll be rendered ineffective.”

“Hmph, I have faith in my disciple.”

Sigh, that’s not the problem here. I withheld for their safety’s sake. We are among the best formation experts in the world. If the elemental demons acquire our knowledge, we won’t even be able to use formations against them.”

“Tch!” Ku Mu also found one thing annoying: Feng Haochen always won their debates. Hence, he reluctantly replied, “Guess it’s a good thing he was too lazy to invest his time learning formations. Mu Yu, you don’t need to understand how this formation operates. Just follow my directions.”

Mu Yu agreed with Feng Haochen’s perspective. He took on board what was said and proceeded to assist Ku Mu. The trio were finally able to catch up to Xie Bulao and put it together after a long day.

Once Ku Mu finished the line and Feng Haochen inserted the last character, the formation shook and emitted a white beam of quaint energy into the ether. The five could feel the spirit lords’ unease within them and desire to resist.
