Cultivation is just so scientific!-Chapter 585 - 339: The Great Battle
Chapter 585: Chapter 339: The Great Battle
The great battle of the Nascent Soul Ancestors, especially one on the ground, was extremely rare in the Beishu Continent.
After the seven Nascent Soul Ancestors manifested their Nascent Soul Dharma Forms, all the living beings in the area were intimidated by their erupting might.
The vast Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, the monks not consumed by the great fire, regardless of their strength, now lacked any vitality.
These monks were too close to the might of the seven Nascent Soul Ancestors, so close that just the might alone killed them.
The seven Nascent Soul Ancestors did not take a sect like the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple seriously; the life and death of monks were as insignificant as ants in their eyes.
In Patriarch Weng Zhao’s hand appeared a Fire Sword, which when held by the Nascent Soul Dharma Form was more powerful than a flying sword.
Once at the Nascent Soul Stage, if one had not cultivated a Sword Cultivation Technique or was blessed with Sword Intent, the power of a flying sword was actually less threatening than the Fire Sword wielded by the Nascent Soul Dharma Form.
The Nascent Soul Dharma Form could mobilize such vast spiritual power that only when holding it could this vast spiritual power embellish a magical treasure, unleashing its strongest power.
Patriarch Weng Zhao assessed the strength of the other six Nascent Soul Ancestors; he set his sights on Venerable Huike, who was the weakest among them.
Of course, he understood that the six Nascent Soul Ancestors had formed the Six Harmonies Formation, and if he didn’t break this formation first, once the six Nascent Soul Ancestors got closer, he would find himself in a highly disadvantageous position.
He issued a loud shout, which transformed into a terrifying sonic wave, spreading to the surroundings.
The six Nascent Soul Ancestors had not expected Patriarch Weng Zhao to start the battle in this way; in a scenario where he was outnumbered, Patriarch Weng Zhao should have considered escaping rather than engaging in a fight.
With that shout, Patriarch Weng Zhao used a Secret Technique, specifically a very powerful sonic wave Secret Technique.
A potent Secret Technique issued in the form of a Nascent Soul Dharma Form, even the six Nascent Soul Ancestors had to be extremely cautious when facing it.
The six Nascent Soul Ancestors did not wish to risk their lives against Patriarch Weng Zhao, given their absolute advantage.
After Patriarch Weng Zhao’s shout, with the Fire Sword in front and the Nascent Soul Dharma Form behind, the huge Nascent Soul Dharma Form lunged towards Venerable Huike’s Nascent Soul Dharma Form.
Just as the Fire Sword was about to meet Venerable Huike’s Nascent Soul Dharma Form, it suddenly disappeared and reappeared on the other side of the battlefield, moving without affecting the Six Harmonies Formation but rather stabilizing it at another node.
Patriarch Weng Zhao’s strike missed, and the other five Nascent Soul Ancestors’ Dharma Forms simultaneously launched their attacks at him.
The attack from Venerable Huike’s Dharma Form followed swiftly, almost instantly after the other five Nascent Soul Ancestors had launched theirs.
The Buddhist Sect, Demon Sect, and Taoist Sect, all kinds of top-notch spells from different sects converged in their hands towards Patriarch Weng Zhao.
This strike drained all the spiritual energy within several hundred miles; the spiritual veins beneath the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple were directly depleted, as the Nascent Soul Dharma Forms’ consumption of spiritual energy during battle was extremely aggressive and ruthless.
Nascent Soul Ancestors could mobilize a certain might between heaven and earth, and the combined effort of six Nascent Soul Ancestors yielded such a terrifying impact.
This didn’t even account for the destruction after the attack; merely the spiritual energy consumed before the attack had already exhausted the region’s spiritual energy.
Not to mention the spiritual veins, which were ruined. The Ten Thousand Buddha Temple could have preserved the spiritual veins, but after the simultaneous action of the six Nascent Soul Ancestors’ Dharma Forms, the veins were completely drained and rendered useless.
Even the spiritual objects in the region turned into mundane items, as their spiritual energy was consumed.
Such a change turned the environment, which the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple had modified over countless years for cultivators, into a spiritless mortal world.
It would take at least several hundred years for this place to recover.
Be aware, the attack from the six Nascent Soul Dharma Forms hadn’t even struck yet, and this was already the result.
Patriarch Weng Zhao, seeing the six attacks descending upon him, a gleam flickered through his eyes as his huge Nascent Soul Dharma Form suddenly expanded.
He initiated the self-destruction of his Nascent Soul Dharma Form; upon realizing he was surrounded by the six Nascent Soul Ancestors, he had already thought of a strategy.
Unlike the Nascent Soul Ancestors of the Beishu Continent who rarely fought against others of their rank, Patriarch Weng Zhao, although not considered strong among Nascent Soul Ancestors, possessed exceedingly rich combat experience.
Plus, the Beishu Continent knew too little about him, while he had, through many years of dealings with the Skywalk Trading Company on the Beishu Continent, learned much about the six major sects’ Nascent Soul Ancestors.
He was well aware that Venerable Huike had mastered the Divine Foot Skill, although not to an advanced degree; merely mastering ’Itching Steps’ was enough for self-protection.
His strike was not truly intended to affect Venerable Huike; it was rather to move away from the flaming skies above the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, incidentally causing a slight gap in the Six Harmonies Formation formed by the six Nascent Souls.
Just as he expected, Venerable Huike did not directly face his strike; although Venerable Huike made every effort to maintain the stability of the Six Harmonies Formation, Patriarch Weng Zhao, knowledgeable in formations, recognized that Venerable Huike’s move had created a gap in the formation.
Of course, Patriarch Weng Zhao also knew that he couldn’t escape from the six Nascent Soul Ancestors without paying a price.
