Chapter 1651 Subduing the Half-Step 8th Rank Myriad Manifestations Returning to Nothingness Array
Zhang Xuan looked at the natural array formed from the bones of the human cultivator.
Millions of years have passed, and the energy has been depleted, leaving the great formation quite dilapidated.
He directly installed the immortal essence stone that he had finally obtained into the energy core of the great formation.
"boom--"
The world is changing.
Above the array, a cluster of shimmering light, constantly changing shape, floated.
Inside the ball of light, countless fine, star-like runes could be faintly seen coming into being and disappearing.
That shimmering ball of light was actually formed from the purest immortal energy and the rules of the Great Dao!
Within the light, a phantom figure slowly coalesced. Though its exact appearance was unclear, one could sense an aura of antiquity and majesty that transcended countless ages!
The phantom's gaze pierced through time and space, landing on Zhang Xuan.
Without a word, a massive amount of information rushed directly into Zhang Xuan's sea of consciousness!
In an instant, Zhang Xuan saw the endless starry sky and witnessed the arduous journey of the ancient human ancestors in the central ancestral vein!
We witnessed this unknown human powerhouse, who fought against the heavy water alien race to protect his people. In the end, his bones remained intact, his immortal essence transformed into an array, and his legacy endured for eternity…
At the same time, a powerful pressure of will descended, attempting to crush his soul and obliterate his consciousness!
"The legacy of our predecessors, we, Zhang Xuan, will inherit and never forget! The Dao heart of the human race will never die!"
Zhang Xuan roared inwardly, and the ethereal tree of the Great Dao's rules and authority behind him materialized, with two main trunks standing tall and thirteen side branches swaying, exuding the Daoist charm that governs all laws, and forcefully withstood the overwhelming impact of that will!
It felt like millions of years had passed, yet also like a fleeting moment.
The immense pressure of that will receded like a tide, and the flow of information gradually subsided.
The tall, illusory figure seemed to nod slightly at Zhang Xuan, with a hint of satisfaction, before slowly dissipating and transforming back into the swirling immortal energy.
At this moment, Zhang Xuan felt a close connection between himself and that ball of immortal energy, this skeleton, and this great formation, a connection that was as close as flesh and blood!
It worked!
This half-step eighth-order natural grand formation has finally fully recognized him!
With a thought, the ethereal immortal essence transformed into a stream of light, entering his brow and hovering deep within his sea of consciousness, merging with his divine soul.
All the information about this great formation also clearly surfaced in my mind.
The Myriad Manifestations Return to the Void Grand Array is based on the remains of powerful human beings, and is a natural array formed by fusing their immortal essence and lifelong Dao principles.
It can expand its domain, drawing upon the power of the Void, causing those of insufficient level to instantly vanish into nothingness within the great formation.
It can also summon the skeletal phantom of a powerful being to attach to oneself, greatly increasing physical strength and power for a short period of time.
Furthermore, there seems to be a deeper level of ability related to the origin secrets of that core skeleton, which is currently undetectable.
"Half-step to the eighth rank...truly defying the heavens!"
Even with Zhang Xuan's resolute will, he couldn't help but feel his heart surge with emotion at this moment.
With this formation, his strength underwent a qualitative leap!
Whether in offense or defense, they possess trump cards powerful enough to threaten or even crush ordinary Mahayana cultivators!
More importantly, by activating and subduing the Great Array of All Things Returning to the Void, he received some fragmented memories and information.
It vaguely points to some lost ancient heritage of the central ancestral human race.
This core skeleton seems to be related to a highly renowned human emperor from the ancient era!
Just as he was basking in the joy of his success, another unexpected event occurred!
The Myriad Transformations Ring, which he had taken into his sea of consciousness and nurtured, seemed to be stimulated by the pure and vast immortal essence of the Myriad Manifestations Returning to the Void Array, and suddenly became restless!
Overwhelming resentment and malevolent energy spread uncontrollably, the flowing ghostly light on the surface of the ring became violent, and the billions of imprisoned spirits seemed to be about to break free of their restraints!
"Hmph! You still dare to be so insolent even here!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes turned cold, and he activated the swirling immortal energy of the Myriad Manifestations Returning to Nothingness Array within his sea of consciousness.
A surge of immortal energy, imbued with the intent of purification and return to the void, instantly enveloped the myriad calamities.
"Chi chi chi——"
Like cold water poured into hot oil, the overwhelming malevolent energy and resentment, under the wash of immortal energy, made a violent sound and quickly dissolved and purified!
The chaotic and frenzied spirits within the ring trembled under the oppressive power of the immortal essence, gradually calming down.
Although the source of the weapon's malevolent energy could not be completely purified, the suppression by the immortal energy undoubtedly provided Zhang Xuan with great convenience in using this treasure in the future.
His mind once again connected with the entire great formation that he had taken control of.
As his senses expanded, with the help of this half-step eighth-order grand formation, some previously unnoticed details gradually emerged.
A more blurred and fragmented image flashed through his mind:
It was a magnificent palace, shrouded in ethereal beauty.
Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the sky, and an endless, dark, heavy river of water poured out, engulfing everything!
Palaces collapsed, spirits wailed, and a towering figure roared as it soared into the sky, battling the terrifying being within the dark, heavy waters...
Finally, heaven and earth collapsed, and that figure fell, its bones remaining intact, carrying with them fragments of the celestial abode, drifting into the boundless darkness...
This fragmented memory confirmed his earlier suspicions!
The Antarctic Emperor successfully traveled to another dimension and found the Central Ancestral Vein.
However, as soon as they arrived at the Central Ancestral Vein, the human cultivators were controlled by the powerful cultivators of the Heavy Water Alien Clan, and even the Antarctic Human Emperor was defeated and captured.
This powerful human being perished in the battle against the heavy water alien race.
Now that he has complete control of the Bone Array, he has the confidence to explore the deepest secrets of the Myriad Spirit Pool in the Upper Immortal Mansion.
He glanced at Tianyezi, who was still meditating beside him, and left a divine thought to inform him of his whereabouts.
Immediately, his figure transformed into a stream of light, relying on his connection with the great formation, he traversed the void directly and sped towards the core of the Myriad Spirit Pool!
Returning to the core area of the Myriad Spirits Pool, the experience was completely different.
The golden scales and sword shadows that were once carefully avoided now retreated upon sensing the aura of the Myriad Manifestations Returning to Nothingness Array emanating from Zhang Xuan.
The golden dragon phantom that had once chased him so relentlessly was now merely circling in the distance, no longer approaching.
Zhang Xuan traveled unimpeded directly to the edge of the vast Spirit Blood Lake.
A closer look reveals its breathtaking beauty.
The lake water is not simply red, but displays a myriad of colors.
Each color represents a drop of the original blood of a different true spirit, radiating boundless energy and ancient Taoist charm.
The lake was shrouded in mist, and countless phantoms of true spirits rose and fell and roared within it.
In the very center of the lake, a point of extremely dazzling golden light is slowly gathering and shimmering!
The aura emanating from that golden light was sharp and indestructible, capable of cutting through everything!
"Immortal Gold! It really is Immortal Gold!" Zhang Xuan's heart burned with excitement.
Deep within this Pool of Ten Thousand Spirits, immortal gold is truly being nurtured!
It is very likely a rare treasure born from the remaining immortal essence of powerful beings in the outer regions and the essence of countless true spirits' blood over countless ages!
However, his joy was quickly replaced by vigilance.
Because he also sensed that the Spirit Blood Lake was not calm.
