254: Chapter 254 Bold Ideas

Deafening explosions resounded through the heavens and earth as an energy storm raged, the ground split apart, and smoke and dust billowed into the sky, turning the area into a hellish landscape of destruction.

The Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation was also activated at the right moment under the control of the female Cultivators from Wan Cao Valley.

Countless thick green vines sprouted from the ground and the Void Realm like living things, coiling toward the enemies at the center of the explosion.

The Taixu Yin-Yang Sword Formation produced countless sharp Sword Qi, cutting back and forth within the blast radius like a meat grinder.

The power of this joint strike was enough to instantly heavily injure or even obliterate several True Immortals of the same rank!

"Did it work?!"

Qing Luo clenched her hands and stared nervously at the center of the explosion.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

The anticipation and ruthlessness on the faces of the allied forces gradually froze, turning into unbelievable shock.

In the center of the explosion, Su Mo still stood there perfectly unharmed, without having moved even an inch.

And the Incarnations behind him were also completely unscathed.

"This... how is this possible?!"

The sinister grin on Xiao Zhan's face froze as he cried out in shock.

He had clearly seen his full-strength strike land on this Lower Realm Cultivator's body; no matter how powerful he was, he should have been seriously injured at the very least.

"His methods... are eerie!"

Qing Luo's expression changed as she recalled Leng Shuangning's words.

The expressions of the others also shifted rapidly from greed and seriousness to gloom and solemnity.

Su Mo paid no heed to their shock; with a mere thought...

Over eighty Incarnations erupted with tri-colored flames to the extreme, charging directly at the crowd.

One Spell after another landed among the Incarnations, but they failed to cause even the slightest ripple.

Cultivators were continuously restrained by the Incarnations in close quarters, only to be tapped on the center of their brows by Su Mo as he arrived. Their eyes instantly turned hollow as they turned around to join the ranks of those attacking their former companions.

The defeat was like a mountain collapsing!

The crowd could only retreat repeatedly, entering the protection of the grand Formation.

Seeing that these Incarnations could not break through the protection of the Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation, they all breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Rest assured, everyone. This Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation can both trap enemies and defend itself. Its defensive strength is not something an ordinary True Immortal Realm Cultivator can break through,"

Qing Luo said slowly, reassuring the crowd.

At that moment, the crowd began to ponder:

"Are these Puppets truly immortal and indestructible?! Is there no way to completely slay them?!"

"Fairy Leng, Fellow Daoist Li, you were the first to encounter him. Have you discovered any weaknesses?"

Leng Ningshuang shook her head helplessly, her voice tinged with bitterness:

"No... Even when Zhao Yan, Zhang Ling, and I joined forces and used our ultimate moves, we couldn't harm their foundation. They... truly seem to be immortal..."

Xiao Jian of the Taixu Sect flicked his longsword upon hearing this:

"A mere Lower Realm Cultivator! To think he has pushed us to such a point!"

He stared at the four top-grade origin fruits in Su Mo's hands and spoke with resentment.

"Sigh—in that case, let us wait within this Formation until the portal to the Secret Realm opens again."

Everyone's hearts sank.

While top-grade origin fruits were good, preserving their lives was the most important thing.

Right then—

Boom!

With a loud bang, the Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation trembled violently.

"What's happening?!"

Qing Luo's face changed drastically. As the person controlling the Formation, she clearly felt an incredibly violent force strike the Formation's barrier.

Everyone hurriedly looked out. Outside the Formation, an Incarnation with calm eyes, surrounded by blazing tri-colored flames, slammed into the Formation's light shield and then self-detonated!

Boom—!

A deafening explosion rang out!

The self-detonation of a True Immortal-level expert burning everything was terrifyingly powerful.

The violent energy impacted the Formation's light shield, causing it to tremble again, and the light barrier suddenly dimmed.

"He... he's actually making the Puppets self-detonate?!"

Qing Luo watched in stunned silence, a chill rising from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

This was a completely suicidal fighting style!

However, this was only the beginning.

Before the aftershocks of the first Incarnation's self-detonation had fully subsided, the second, third, fourth... with no expression on their faces, one after another, they charged resolutely at the same point on the Formation's light shield and then exploded.

Boom, boom, boom, boom... a continuous string of terrifying explosions echoed through the clouds.

The Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation began to flicker violently, and fine cracks actually appeared on the light barrier.

"Not good! The Formation is about to fail!"

A trace of blood leaked from the corner of Qing Luo's mouth, her face pale.

She desperately channeled her immortal essence to maintain the Formation, but under such violent and continuous attacks, the collapse of the Formation was only a matter of time.

The color instantly drained from everyone's faces. Their previous luck and the idea of holding out using the Formation were completely shattered, replaced by panic.

"We can't hold it! Run!"

"Use the spatial jade slips!"

"Escape!"

Not knowing who broke first and screamed, everyone scrambled to pull out their respective life-saving spatial jade slips.

origin fruits, face—none of it mattered in the face of life and death.

Leng Ningshuang and Li Muchen exchanged a glance, both seeing the despair and decisiveness in each other's eyes, and crushed their Jade Slips without hesitation.

At the moment they crushed the Jade Slips and the power of space began to envelop everyone—

Crack... Bang!

Having endured dozens of consecutive self-detonations from true immortal incarnations, the Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation finally reached its limit, letting out an overburdened wail before shattering.

Countless cyan light spots scattered and flew away.

At the same time the Ten Thousand Woods Heaven-Prisoning Formation burst apart, all the Second Generation Immortals crushed their spatial jade slips and vanished.

Only the True Immortal attendants who failed to escape in time remained, along with that emerald origin fruit floating in mid-air, ignored by everyone.

Su Mo was not surprised at all as he converted these True Immortal attendants one by one.

In just a short while, the battlefield became completely silent.

The number of true immortal incarnations under Su Mo's command soared once again, impressively breaking past the one-hundred mark!

A dense crowd of people stood behind him, silent and motionless, yet emitting a suffocating and terrifying aura.

With a wave of his hand, the emerald origin fruit drifted lightly into his palm. Thus, five top-grade origin fruits of different attributes—crimson, blue, platinum, earthy yellow, and emerald—were all in his possession.

Majestic Dao rhymes intertwined in his palm, causing the surrounding Immortal Qi to boil.

Su Mo smiled slightly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"They certainly ran away quickly..."

He muttered to himself.

These Second Generation Immortals had deep backgrounds. Originally, he had thought of using them to transport the top-grade origin fruits out, but now... his gaze turned deep as a bolder idea took shape in his heart.

If this succeeded, these Second Generation Immortals and the forces behind them would all become a part of Su Mo.

With a thought, over a hundred Incarnations spread out from him across the entire Secret Realm.

This Origin Secret Realm was not very large, only about the size of the Cangxu Realm.

True Immortal Realm Incarnations would only need a short time to run a full circle around it.

As long as one Incarnation discovered those Second Generation Immortals, Su Mo could instantly bring the other Incarnations there.
