564: Temporary failure

Unable to find a way to Breakthrough the Formation, and seeing the Formation's flaws diminish under their combined efforts, Yang Dian simply gathered his Martial Dao True Body, which had transformed into starlight, back into human form.

“Suppress?”

“I’ll just stand here. Go on, show me how you suppress me.”

“Hmph!” Monk Miesheng snorted coldly, and the massive sun immediately began to flatten, transforming in an instant into an inverted alms bowl inscribed with countless runes.

However, before the giant alms bowl could descend, the star-fire falling from the stars suddenly accelerated, landing on Yang Dian before the alms bowl could cover him.

Boom!

As the star-fire fell, the blazing star-fire instantly spread to every corner of the Formation.

Space twisted, time blurred, and the world itself seemed to become bizarre at this moment.

Monk Miesheng, whose phantom had condensed on the alms bowl, changed his expression dramatically:

“Old Daoist, your strength has increased again?”

As he spoke, he looked at Yang Dian, who remained unmoving amidst the boundless star-fire, even drawing out a wisp of star-fire for research:

“What kind of monster is this?”

“Even the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Talents Formation can't do anything to him?”

The Monk said they couldn't do anything to Yang Dian, but Yang Dian also couldn't do anything to them.

Uh, actually, it wasn't that he couldn't do anything to them.

To be precise, if he dared to go out at this moment, he would be refined into nothingness by this damned Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Talents Formation in minutes.

“How come this star-fire feels like a composite of various radiations?”

Inserting his finger into the star-fire, Yang Dian found that his Qi and blood began to mutate under the burning star-fire.

Some Qi and blood mutated in a good direction.

For example, the Qi and blood became more condensed, or gained certain elemental attack properties.

Some Qi and blood mutated in a bad direction.

For example, the Qi and blood became chaotic and no longer under his control.

Or rather… “Qi and blood can even develop their own consciousness?”

Watching the tentacle formed by the Qi and blood on his fingertip open its mouth, revealing sharp fangs and teeth to bite his own finger.

A shiver ran down Yang Dian’s spine.

“This is too damn weird, isn’t it?”

While Yang Dian extracted a wisp of star-fire for research, Taoist Sansheng, Daoist Nun Yin Xiu, and Monk Miesheng, who had set up the Formation, also projected their phantoms and gathered together:

“Old Daoist, have you taken that step?”

Facing Monk Miesheng’s repeated inquiry, Taoist Sansheng shook his head slightly:

“Not yet.”

“To take that step, I feel that three lives are not enough; at least the power of nine lives must be gathered to cross that heavenly chasm.”

Hearing Taoist Sansheng’s words, Daoist Nun Yin Xiu’s eyes lit up:

“Brother Sansheng, are you going to undergo Reincarnation and trials again?”

“This time, can you take me with you?”

“We’ll be like when we were children, green plum and bamboo horse, innocent childhood sweethearts, growing up together.”

“And then, you marry me.”

Ye Sansheng glanced at Daoist Nun Yin Xiu, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

It was Monk Miesheng on the side who became anxious:

“Xiuer, Sansheng’s trials are to accumulate foundation for that final leap; how can he waste time on romantic entanglements?”

As he spoke, his eyes darkened again:

“By the way, what exactly did that kid do to you in the Formation just now?”

Daoist Nun Yin Xiu slanted a look at Monk Miesheng:

“What else could he do to me?”

“My body is the core of the Formation, protected by the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Talents Formation. How could his weak magical power possibly touch me?”

“It’s good that he didn’t touch you, it’s good that he didn’t touch you.” Monk Miesheng murmured:

“Your hand, even I haven’t touched it, how could I let someone else touch your body?”

Before his murmurs faded, Monk Miesheng looked at Daoist Nun Yin Xiu in despair as she reached out and hugged Ye Sansheng’s arm:

“Brother Sansheng, please take your little sister with you on this trial~ Please, please~”

“Hiss~~~” Hearing Daoist Nun Yin Xiu’s forced sweet talk, Yang Dian, who had just approached them, couldn’t help but gasp.

That voice, who could withstand it?

No wonder the Monk was a simp.

The three, hearing the sound, simultaneously looked towards Yang Dian’s location, then their faces all turned gloomy:

“How did you get here?”

Yang Dian spread his hands:

“Do you think I’ll tell you?”

No sooner had he spoken than Yang Dian saw the three exchange glances.

The next moment, the Formation suddenly dispersed, and the transfer platform reappeared before Yang Dian, while Ye Sansheng and the other two also vanished from Yang Dian’s sight.

Unable to perceive their aura and confirming they weren't hiding nearby, Yang Dian couldn't help but feel a little surprised:

“They just left?”

While Yang Dian was surprised, Ye Sansheng and the other two had also crossed boundless distances, reappearing in the Void Realm outside Chongming Star.

Having lived for hundreds of thousands of years, they naturally wouldn't lack the necessary decisiveness.

The Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Talents Formation was already one of their trump cards, and this time they had acted without reservation.

Under these circumstances, they still couldn't take down Yang Dian, so they naturally wouldn't stay put and endure Yang Dian's smugness.

Upon arriving in the Void Realm, Daoist Nun Yin Xiu released Ye Sansheng’s hand, her expression turning as cold as frost:

“The fluctuation we sensed should have been caused by Yu Tian; he wants to use us to eliminate that expert who appeared from who knows which world.”

Ye Sansheng shook his head slightly upon hearing this:

“He’s not exactly strong.”

“His strength, at most, is just entering the path of Immortals; it’s just that the rules he controls are strange, making it impossible for us to touch him.”

Monk Miesheng glared at Ye Sansheng:

“Even we can’t touch him, and he’s not strong?”

“Xiuer is not wrong; he is strong.”

If Daoist Nun Yin Xiu’s affection for Ye Sansheng might have been an act for Yang Dian, intended to plant a false perception in Yang Dian’s mind, then Monk Miesheng was Daoist Nun Yin Xiu’s true simp.

The kind of simp who wouldn't say two if Daoist Nun Yin Xiu said one, and wouldn't allow anyone else to say two.

At least, that’s how he had behaved for hundreds of thousands of years.

Ye Sansheng, knowing Monk Miesheng’s temperament, didn't argue with him, but after a moment of silence, he spoke:

“The important thing now is to figure out what kind of world that person comes from.”

“Is he an explorer from his world venturing into the outer domains, or is he the strongest person in his world?”

“If he is the strongest, then we need to find the coordinates of his world and try to threaten him with his world.”

“If he is just an insignificant scout…”

As he spoke, he looked at the bronze ancient tree on Chongming Star:

“Perhaps, we need to prepare to migrate worlds again…”

…While Ye Sansheng and the other two discussed how to deal with Yang Dian and the world behind him, what about Yang Dian?

After confirming that Ye Sansheng and the other two had left and Yu Tian was also nowhere to be found, he also left the underground space.

That little fellow, the Dimension Butterfly, had executed Yang Dian’s orders perfectly, having already completed the replacement of the spatial anchor points.

This meant that from now on, those dozen or so Blessed Lands had become Yang Dian’s private property.

Without his permission, others couldn't even find the entrance, let alone enter.
