"Hahaha!"
Ling Tian's joyous laughter could be heard amidst the horrible mass of energy that had accumulated once it fell.
This amount of energy was ten times more than the previous one!
And yet, a vortex reappeared in the middle of the entire gigantic mass of energy, with all the energy being sucked out by a gigantic force coming from Ling Tian's body!
Ling Tian's short hair became disheveled, waving with the force of the wind made by all the commotion caused. His clothes were also swaying in the wind, but despite that, his body stood without moving, let alone obtaining an injury.
The gigantic mass that had appeared had quickly shrunk by half, still being sucked into Ling Tian's body.
The Sacred Heavenly Scriptures force absorbed this exorbitant amount of contained energy, encountering no problems at its absorption limit in both speed and capacity. Even the absorption force was getting faster and faster, absorbing the rest of the energy much faster.
This made Ling Tian glad to know that this treasure of the heavens is so magnificent and unique, but it also made him bitter to realize something. The energy he had absorbed so far would have brought any other cultivator to the peak of the Great Ascension state and would still be left over, even for him in the past it would be enough to reach the high level of the same state, but when he focused his attention on the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures, the apparent level they had was that he was just barely entering the Great Ascension realm despite having absorbed all this spiritual energy. This meant that despite being powerful, the amount needed to advance in force and power was far more than the average cultivation, even more than his own previous cultivation that required more effort and power.
If he were to let the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures work on their own and without seeking external means to accelerate his cultivation, Ling Tian was certain that it would take dozens of thousands of years to return to his previous peak, even millions of years. The more one advanced in cultivation, the more one's container expanded to have more power, while the expansion of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures seemed to be 10 times greater than the average one's cultivation....
The various elders, men and women nearby had died when they were hit by the immense mass of energy. Surprisingly only Heng Tiandi, Shi Ye and Hai Tong remained, but their bodies were in very bad shape to the point that one single low-level cultivator could easily end their lives.
The central peak, where they were now which was the Main Hall was completely destroyed.
"It's a good appetizer. But it's not enough to let you go..."
The voice neither cheerful nor sad of Ling Tian was heard, with the mass of energy already almost disappearing. His gaze towards Man Chong was filled with indifference, as if the laughter and joy of moments ago had not been there.
"For the last time I will ask you... how many are in your sect and who else has fallen from the Immortal World." Ling Tian looked indifferently at Man Chong.
Man Chong clicked his teeth and activated for the third time the rune in his hand that was already almost worn out, "If you plan to confront us you will only meet your own death!"
The primordial rune activated and the formations throughout the sect activated for the third time, but this time, they began to be destroyed from the smallest and weakest to the largest and most important. Even simple formations like Chi Gathering and Body Tempering Formation were destroyed as they quickly absorbed energy and destroyed themselves.
"This guy wants to destroy the whole sect!"
Lu Wuhu exclaimed in fury upon seeing Man Chong's action. If they let Man Chong have his way, the sect would be destroyed and the thousands of disciples would die!
His cultivation essence surged and imbibed more into the three heavenly swords on the barrier, beginning to create cracks as they found a weak spot!
Xue Ning at his side activated her martial skill again and supported Lu Wuhu, causing more and more cracks to appear on the barrier.
Ling Tian glanced sideways at the nearby formations, watching them begin to destroy as time passed.
"You're leaving? Who gave you permission to leave?" Ling Tian glanced up when he saw Man Chong fly off and want to leave.
"You have other business more important than me. Next time you won't be so lucky." Man Chong grinned evilly, but inside he was completely scared as he tried his best to leave and not face this monster. All his power exploded to the maximum of what was left to escape. Although Man Chong did not want to do this because it would waste a lot of time and effort, he had no choice.
"But I still haven't punished you for wanting to take ownership of my children's sect."
Ling Tian's figure had disappeared when he hadn't even finished speaking. His figure appeared at Man Chong's side and grabbed him by the neck easily, immediately pulling him to the ground preventing him from escaping.
Man Chong was terrified when he realized that he could not keep up with this guy's speed. He even felt a powerful restriction throughout his body preventing him from circulating his energy as he tried to run away again!
* Crack! *
The barrier that was keeping Lu Wuhu and the others trapped completely cracked and was destroyed, allowing everyone to go free.
Lu Wuhu stepped forward and grabbed Man Chong's primordial rune, trying to inject all of his cultivation essence and spirit sense to disable the active formations.
"It's useless. If you don't want the sect to be destroyed let me go." Man Chong grabbed at the last chance to escape
"Fuck!" Lu Wuhu spat as he saw that he couldn't deactivate the formations.
The entire sect trembled more fiercely as soon as major formations began to crack and want to self-destruct. The formations around each major peak also shook, alarming all the disciples within.
A barrier visibly materialized overhead, to the horror of every disciple as they were unable to fly even with their flying swords. This barrier of restriction prevented anyone from escaping, either by flying or by performing secret escape techniques.
"Girls! Let's all get together and perform the second form of the Xuanwu secret technique!"
Pang Wuya's voice was heard from one of the peaks when she saw that the shaking did not stop and the peak might fall at any moment. With her demeanor she took the lead as she was the most senior present and gathered all her martial sisters.
Hong Xian'er, followed by the other women positioned themselves at strategic points and connected their cultivation essences. The martial sisters who were injured or recovering from long ago fights stood in the center being protected by the other female cultivators performing the defensive formation.
A powerful layer of energy wrapped around all the women as the figure of a huge turtle wrapped in a figure that appeared to be a snake materialized slightly. The combined energy of dozens of female disciples impacted against the barrier, succeeding in accomplishing the secret formation technique. Although the features were not detailed since the energy was not enough to carry out such a secret technique completely, it was enough to protect its users from destruction.
Similarly, at the twin peak, An Qinmeng and An Yuqing led their martial sisters, performing the same turtle and snake defense training. Similarly, the injured female disciples found themselves in the center being protected by the other martial sisters. The Xuanwu Formation was quickly activated, protecting from any threat that might occur on the spot.
On the other peaks, the various disciples also joined together to perform these secret techniques to perform the protection formation on them. Some even performed other types of powerful secret techniques to protect themselves and their other martial siblings.
Only a few presences could be found in the skies that tried to fly unsuccessfully by forcing their auras before falling ungracefully.
"Guys! Hang in there! You'll see that the situation will soon calm down!"
Xuanyuan Haoyun's voice was heard in a faraway place. His Nascent Soul realm great power soared mightily, even single-handedly carrying out a powerful defense formation in which he protected dozens of junior martial brothers.
Xuanyuan Haoyun looked in the direction of the sect center, hoping that his Master Lu Wuhu could do something. Unknowingly, he also waited for his Grandmaster to appear and calm down the whole situation.
"We have to get out of here, Master. I'll go save as many disciples as I can!"
Lu Wuhu prepared to leave when Ling Tian's hand rested on his shoulder. The latter looked at him with a smiling but extremely calm expression and Lu Wuhu could not help but be stunned for the moment.
"With me here, do you think I would easily let the others get away with it?"
Ling Tian added as he finally took out the small formation flag he had taken out earlier. He injected his force into it and he threw it into the sky.
The formation flag seemed to be complemented by a strange formation above the sky as it activated runes and patterns throughout the space, beginning to cover the entire sect!
The various mysterious runes and patterns activated in succession, even blending easily with the formations that were activated and about to be destroyed!
Ling Tian raised his hand and the power of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures came into play again. The power surged and gathered in the small formation flag, causing it to light up even more, calming and stabilizing the formations completely after several seconds as strange runes appeared over the entire sky.
"Hahaha!"
Ling Tian's joyous laughter could be heard amidst the horrible mass of energy that had accumulated once it fell.
This amount of energy was ten times more than the previous one!
