Chapter 303 - Three Miles
Chapter 303 Three Miles
Outside the center of the Eight Diagram Tactics…
Thought it was just an array, Wang Bugui and the others had never been able to approach its center. Zhuge Liang exerted his martial arts to turn the array into a field, which was large enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people fighting there.
“We are 30 miles away from the center of the array. You can speed up, but not too fast. Be careful!” Yu Wude shouted.
Wang Bugui nodded slowly and then sped up a little bit. He actually could move 30 miles in an instant. Compared with the Hell Step and the thunder arts, 30 miles simply meant nothing.
Even if up ahead lay a dangerous trap suffused with the most terrible power in the world, he had the confidence to go through it alone. It was his current physical achievement, namely, to enter any place, whether of heaven or of hell, as he wished.
If he were only confronted with pure horrible power, he certainly would not hesitate. However, things were different now. He was facing the Eight Diagram Tactics that was set up and in the charge of Zhuge Liang in person.
In addition, after improving this array continuously for thousands of years, he eventually affirmed that it had reached the peak. What kind of person was Zhuge Liang? Since he had delved into a certain thing for thousands of years, who knew how terrible the array would be?
“Growl!”
Just as they were speeding up, the roar of a dragon sounded, shocking the sky. Then, a thousand-foot-long azure dragon rushed out behind the Heaven Array and the Earth Array.
“The Dragon Flying Array’s attributes: The transformation of the Dragon Flying Array exists in the rear alignments of the Heaven Array and the Earth Array. The dragon, with claws and feet, back and chest, is hard to find once hiding in the deep abyss, and becomes endlessly changeable while soaring to the sky. The array, therefore, is named ‘dragon’ as it shares the same characteristics with a dragon.”
Shangguan Yiyi frowned and said while pondering, “Brother Bugui…”
However, Yu Wude, who was next to her, interrupted her and said, “Brother is so formidable that he is qualified to deal with any array among the Eight Diagram Tactics. But now is not the time for him to take action.
“Zhuge Liang is bound to set up the strongest defense in the center of the array, which needs to be broken by Brother. So…”
At that moment, he looked at Zhao Changge and said, “Changge, your spear skill bears both offensive and defensive features. Please buy us some time!”
“Don’t worry. I’m no longer what I used to be under the guidance of senior Ying Zheng!” Zhao Changge said with a confident smile.
Then he shouted at the azure dragon as the tip of his spear suddenly flashed a cool light. The next moment, carrying the long spear, he rushed up into the sky like a dragon and confronted the azure dragon head-on.
Changge’s spear skills, infinite in variety, were so well-practiced that they became an integral part of him. As he rushed freely in front of the dragon, which was huge enough to blot out the sky, his silver spear moved with his heart.
The shadows of the spear, as graceful as dancing pear flowers, flashed profusely and disorderly like snow, but the killing aura was bone-piercing. His spear skills, with both softness and hardness, vaguely revealed Zilong’s signs. However, he also had original views on spear skills.
While activating spear skills like Raging Dragon Breaking Souls, he would adopt a swift and violent attack, and his elegant spear skill would turn into a domineering one.
It actually was like Lyu Hao’s halberd skill, which was stable and violent, but he still took speed into account. He contended with the azure dragon in this way, and even jumped on its body to avoid it.
“Let’s go!”
Yu Wude yelled and pulled Lyu Hao away. However, before they took 10 steps, the huge array began to move suddenly again. The wind and clouds changed, and the clouds actually turned into thousands of troops and weapons.
“The Cloud Hanging Array’s attributes: The Cloud Hanging Array, without a regular and stable formation, is affiliated to the Earth Array. Its transformation will not be completed until it turns into the shape of a flying bird. Such a Bird Flying Array can make a sudden and violent attack, while the Cloud Hanging Array can disorient enemies. It, changing unpredictably, is in the charge of the golden drum. Dammit, it is this array that is triggered first!”
Yu Wude slapped his thigh, then said to Wang Bugui and Lyu Hao, “Yiyi and I are in charge of this array. Brother, you can continue to go forward, and I will transmit my voice once we encounter any obstacles!”
The two of them nodded, and then turned to leave. Yu Wude took out his Formation Breaking Sword, rising into the sky with Shangguan Yiyi to confront the boundless strange clouds.
“There are still 10 miles left!” Wang Bugui gritted his teeth and said. Then he sped up again, for he had already perceived that the rear situation was not favorable.
“Whoosh!”
At that point, as an unusual movement appeared in the sky. A vermilion bird surrounded by horrible flames came out, evaporating all the moisture in the air all at once.
Not only this vermilion bird, but also countless hawks were hovering in the sky. This kind of bird, which was extremely fierce, was keeping an eye on the people below ferociously.
The vermilion bird’s cultivation base approached the peak of the Greater Power. Moreover, at least three of these hawks reached the Greater Power, the rest were all sages.
“The Bird Flying Array’s attributes: While being prepared to strike, a hawk must its spread wings and fly, and so does the Bird Flying Array. Like a hawk, this array takes a vantage point in soaring fighting, and frightens those fowls into hiding. Thus, after taking a good look at its prey, the hawk flies down to strike, and its prey, more or less, is bound to be injured. Similarly, a warrior of this array can succeed in fending off massive troops.
“Lyu Hao, it’ll be hard on you. Please try your best to block those raptors. This is mainly a coordinated array. Once they fly away, everyone will be attacked!”
As Yu Wude’s voice resounded in Lyu Hao’s mind, he slowly stopped. He nodded to Wang Bugui with a faint smile, and then resolutely turned around, holding his halberd.
“Fall!”
In the face of large quantities of supernatural birds, he only roared in anger and crashed the halberd down fiercely. The overwhelming spiritual strength hit the ground, instantly stirring up a wind to lift up the sand and stones around him.
Simultaneously, his violent spiritual strength, killing aura, blood vigor, king’s power, and Innate Prana Power were completely integrated into the halberd. His iron-like muscles expanded to a certain degree at that moment.
With the blue veins all over his body suddenly protruding, he gathered the power into the double-bladed halberd and compressed it to the extreme. A gust of overwhelming evil aura rose up into the sky from his body.
Then, countless bits of sand and stones flew into the sky, and so did he. In the process, he was still sparing no efforts to compress this destructive power.
“Extinction of a Floating Life!”
A roar, finally, was heard. Lyu Hao held the huge halberd with both hands and struggled to wave it in the sky, brutally unleashing a newly learned move.
“Boom!”
In the twinkling of an eye, an awful force broke out. Everyone present sensed an overbearing evil aura, and the whole sky was stained blood-red.
Such strength blocked all the supernatural birds outrageously. Indeed, on touching it, only the fowls with the Greater Power cultivation base survived, while the rest were all turned into broken pieces by the halberd.
“Kill!”
Lyu Hao screamed, rushed at the supernatural birds with his halberd, and held up all the remaining Greater Power opponents.
“Three miles left!”
Wang Bugui, regardless of any other factors, gnashed his teeth and sped up again. In the meantime, he displayed the super sense and Divine Eyes for the sake of reaching the center of the array as soon as possible and breaking the array all at once.
“Whiz!”
However, just as he was running, a golden beam of power rushed over beside him, and he was less than a meter away from being hit as he reacted.
“Whiz!”
But no matter how fast the power shifted, it would move as slow as a snail in his Divine Eyes as long as it did not involve the law of time. Assisted by the peerless Hell Step, he avoided it at a distance of half a meter.
However, thousands of beams of power, all of which were composed of the five elements, suddenly rushed out around him. In addition, Wu Bugui found that the gravity here abruptly increased dozens of times over!
“Uh!”
He looked at the center of the array, only to see a handsome man in white hunkering on the stage and tasting tea. Joggling the feather fan in his hand, he observed what was going on with a smile.
“You’re really merciless, Prime Minister…” Wang Bugui shook his head with a wry smile as he dodged quickly.
He clearly realized that the gravity doubled every time Zhuge Liang joggled his feather fan. Obviously, Zhuge Liang made difficulties for him on purpose, but he did not block the way at the same time.
Provided that he moved fast enough, he would be capable of withdrawing before the gravity reached a point where he could no longer move.
“Whiz! Whiz, whiz!”
Wang Bugui shuttled back and forth three miles away from the center, constantly casting his spell to destroy the beams of power with the five elements. However, the number of these beams became greater and greater since they regenerated at an extraordinary speed.
“Ten Thousand Avatars!”
In the end, he used such an ultimate technique to create countless clones to divert these beams of light. After he took a step toward the center of the array, only two meters were left between him and the center.
“Puff!”
However, as soon as he stepped in, his chest was pierced through by a long spear, whose strength was so formidable that he was forced to retreat at a high speed and be firmly nailed three miles away.
“Brother!”
Everyone was paying attention to what was happening, but they did not expect that such an accident would take place to Wang Bugui. Moreover, his physique was really strong.
Even the Greater Power magic tools not made of natural resources were not more powerful than him. But this long spear actually pierced through his body, how sharp on earth was it?
“Don’t worry!”
Wang Bugui transmitted his mind, and then slowly stood up, pulling out the blood-stained spear. After a careful check, he found that this spear was converted by the Five-elements Thunder Tribulation!
“Kaboom…”
Then he looked ahead. At that point, a heavy layer of black clouds had covered the sky, in which various lightning, like countless electric snakes, flashed and hissed. The horrible aura was gradually spreading.
That space thunder was either transformed into weapons, soldiers, or a variety of divine troops from ancient historical times. In addition, Wang Bugui caught sight of several thunder dragons roaring among them.
Their aura was incredibly terrifying, and they were all at the peak of the Greater Power!
He also discovered that Zhuge Liang did not continue to increase the gravity, but still joggled his feather fan rhythmically. Every time he shook it, the number of catastrophes grew.
“Prime Minister, your array is too formidable…” Wang Bugui could not help sighing.
“Haha… I don’t dare to look down on a genius like you. Now that you’re recognized as a God-given genius not seen in 10,000 years, I have to do my level best with this insignificant array.”
Zhuge Liang slowly said with a smile, and then took a sip of the tea, continuing to watch what was happening on the battlefield.
“Bring it on now!”
Wang Bugui did not talk nonsense but displayed the Heavenly Battling Force to completely remover the Body Defense Mechanism. Then, he clenched his fists to confront the Thunder Tribulations ahead.
