Chapter 2542 - True Strength
At this moment, a pulse of energy suddenly erupted from within the formation. A dragon and phoenix flew out from the formation and charged towards the divine hall with a dragon’s roar and a phoenix’s cry.
They were not a true dragon and phoenix. Instead, the dragon was conjured from all the mist and clouds, while the phoenix was condensed from the rain with the power of ways. They attacked the divine hall with terrifying might.
Between the dragon and the phoenix was a huge bolt of lightning that was hundreds of metres thick. It shone with dazzling light, ripping through the dark space and striking the divine hall with devastating power.
This was the power that Ye Yizhan controlled through the imperial seal in his hand. He wanted to stop the advance of the divine hall.
The divine hall became slower and slower under the powerful attacks of the formation.
Originally, it should not suffer so much as a high quality god artifact, but the high quality god artifact was unable to demonstrate its full potential due to the lack of a Grand Prime. It could only endure the attacks with its toughness.
All of their experts had already gathered together in the Cloudsurge Empire, facing the colossal divine hall sternly.
The Golden-striped Silver Snake, Tian Shang, happened to be among them.
However, he was extremely stern at this moment. He stared right at the divine hall that used the Heaven-linking Bridge to pass through the formation as the light in his eyes flickered with uncertainty.
“God dammit. I never thought the Empyrean Demon Cult would have a Heaven-linking Bridge. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have returned to the imperial capital,” Tian Shang cursed inside. He had been too confident about the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood. He believed that as long as the formation existed, the Empyrean Demon Cult would never be able to get through to the city. However, the appearance of the Heaven-linking Bridge allowed him to sense how horrible the situation had become.
If he were outside right now, he could use his abilities to escape and leave the Delight Plane easily.
However, inside the formation, he was greatly restricted.
The quality of the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood was simply too great. It was an extremely powerful God Tier formation. Now that it had been completely activated, it was impossible for him to pass through it even if he used everything he had.
By now, the demonic aura had already surged in through the Heaven-linking Bridge. The divine hall had already entered the imperial capital. It gave off a tremendous might, pressing into the imperial capital along the way. Wherever it went, demonic aura would permeate the area and reduce it to darkness.
“Of the surging clouds and flooding rain, transform the sky into the world!” The emperor of the Cloudsurge Empire, Ye Yizhan, bellowed out. He lifted the imperial seal high into the air, and it immediately shone with dazzling light, seemingly fusing with the formation.
Immediately, the space within the formation distorted. A mysterious power appeared, isolating the space and forging another world. It sealed the divine hall there.
The divine hall came to a halt. The space in its surroundings distorted as time descended into chaos. The formation created line upon line of seals, seemingly creating another world to keep the divine hall trapped there.
Ye Yizhan had used the power of the formation to restrain the divine hall.
After all, the divine hall was a high quality god artifact. It was impenetrable. If he allowed it to rampage in the imperial city, no one there would be able to stop it.
The divine hall shone brightly as it erupted with terrifying power. Surging demonic aura filled the surroundings, reducing it to darkness.
The divine hall began to counterattack, coming into conflict with the formation.
The formation began to tremble, and the space that kept the divine hall trapped trembled as well. It became very unstable, showing signs of collapse.
“My cultivation is far too low. I can only unleash a portion of the formation’s power.” Ye Yizhan was stern. He looked at the imperial seal in his hand before biting the tip of his tongue resolutely. He sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto the imperial seal.
Immediately, the imperial seal shone with dazzling light. The power that the formation displayed immediately increased slightly.
As this all happened, the grand elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult, Cheng Ming, sat in the air within the divine hall as a soul. He was stern.
His hands constantly moved about before him, forming seals. He used a secret technique his master had passed onto him to control the divine hall.
A droplet of blood hovered above his head. The energy in the blood was extremely powerful. At this moment, slivers of energy scattered from the droplet of blood with Cheng Ming’s seals, fusing into the divine hall.
The main energy source powering the divine hall was this droplet of blood!
“The droplet of blood from master can only power this divine hall for three days. We have to retreat after three days,” thought Cheng Ming. The time that they had was extremely short.
“It’s just a pity that the original owner of this divine hall died at the hands of master, and the artifact spirit held grudges, refusing to yield the entire time. In the end, he was mercilessly slain by master. If I had the artifact spirit’s assistance, controlling the divine hall would be much easier,” as soon as he thought of that, Cheng Ming felt that it was a great pity. However, he called out soon afterwards and formed a strange seal with both hands before pressing them onto the ground.
Immediately, a beam of black light shot out from the divine hall. It wove together into a profound inscription, directly shooting into the formation. It became entangled with the formation that guarded the city.
“Oh no, the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood has been pinned down. I can’t control it through the imperial seal anymore.” Ye Yizhan’s expression changed.
At the same time, the armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult surged out from the divine hall. They seemed like a dark cloud from a distance. They were innumerable.
With the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainfall pinned down, the armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult were formally mobilised as well. They were all elites, composed of Godhood experts.
The elites were well-trained. As soon as they emerged from the divine hall, they fell into their formations and amplified their strengths to the limit. Under the leadership of some Godkings, they pressed forwards.
In the sky were the Primordial realm experts of the Empyrean Demon Cult. There were so many of them that it surprised the experts of the Cloudsurge Empire.
“There are actually over two hundred Primordial realm experts. How does the Empyrean Demon Cult have so many Primordial realm experts?” The expressions of many of the subjects changed. Such a number was over two times more than what their empire possess.
“Hmph, they’re all just Infinite Primes, and more than seventy percent of them are early Infinite Primes. There are definitely no more than ten Chaotic Primes. Our empire is no weaker than them.”
