The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 246 The Formation of Reincarnation

Li Xian was covered with cuts and bruises, and his back was bent like an old woman. It seemed that he would fall down if he tried to fight again. However, he still had that emotionless look, one that knew no sorrow or disappointment, but the wrinkles in the corner of his eyes still showed his joy.

In any case, beating back the eight hundred-strong monk soldiers and destroying almost all of Buddhism’s force which was accumulated for eight hundred years was satisfying. The land of the Tang Empire was one step closer to being safe.

Nangong Diyi was exhausted. He was panting while holding his sword. He took out a medicinal bottle with his trembling hand, poured out some Dan Pills and handed it to Li Ye and Li Xian.

Li Ye picked up a Dan pill and swallowed it. He had already had too many Dan Pills when he was fighting with the eighteen guardian warriors and the thirty-six arhats. So the Dan Pills had little effect, but it was better than nothing.

Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang looked better, relatively speaking.

Wei Xiaozhuang went over to support Li Xian, though his face was covered with blood, he was smiling brightly like a flower. “So, Your Highness, you are the old Prince An? I’ve heard of you, I have the utmost respect for you! I feel so honored to have the opportunity to join you in battle. My master too has immense respect for you. He told me and my sister your stories since we were young. He also said that out of all the heroes in the world, he only respects you. But unfortunately, my master isn’t here now, he went out to sea to visit the immortals. If he were here, I’m sure he’d be on his knees with excitement!”

Li Xian’s expression was calm. He wasn’t overjoyed with Wei Xiaozhuang’s compliments, but just smiled to show his acknowledgment. His reactions had garnered even more respect from Wei Xiaozhuang. He now thought of him as God-like.

When Li Ye swallowed Nangong Diyi’s Dan Pill, his body stumbled. As a breath of fragrant air hit him, he felt his arm being supported. His biceps and triceps had felt something bulging and soft, which showed that the one supporting him did not hold anything back. She really did care about him.

Li Ye turned around and saw that it was Su Emei, the girl who had always been otherworldly. She was now looking at her with those sparkling eyes, and she did not realize that their bodies were touching. She did indeed care about him. Li Ye then smiled at her.

When Nangong Diyi looked left and right and saw that no one went to support him, he was upset. Indignation filled those little eyes of his, he then complained, “Old Prince An and Prince An, you guys are the great heroes of the world. Yet you need support from others just for killing a bunch of chickens and dogs. I, however, went up north with just my sword alone and defeated thousands of soldiers, and I didn’t need support from anyone.”

He puffed up his chest as he spoke, as if to say, ‘I’m looking down on you’. But he immediately grimaced, a sharp pain came from his broken sternum, so he had to bow his back.

Li Ye smiled and added, “I know that you don’t need any support, so how about you don’t lean on your sword?”

Nangong Diyi righteously added, “This is no ordinary sword; this is Nangong Diyi’s sword!”

Just as they were chatting and resting, Tian Luo’s roar came from the top of the Qi Mountain, “The Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation !”

Winds and clouds gathered in the clear sky and suddenly it looked like a mad storm was approaching. Heavy winds kicked up on the vast barren land and dust flared up in the air. The roar of the wind was like thousands of horses passing.

Li Ye and others looked up and saw that Tian Luo, Fa Yi and other monks were already sitting cross-legged in the air. Streams of golden light emanated from their backs, they looked like Gods who came down from heaven. Those monk soldiers that retreated to the hillside gradually stopped their steps and sat down cross-legged on the ground after seeing this situation.

Solemn and dignified chanting sounded, echoing in the wilderness, rumbling like thunder. Everything else seemed to be in total silence.

The blue sky was completely covered by clouds as if a layer of curtains had been pulled. It looked as though heaven’s soldiers were marching in mid-air. The earth’s colors were fading like there was a shadow cast upon everything on earth.

Nangong Diyi muttered, “Monks are chanting. I hate it when monks chant, although I don’t understand it, it always seems very powerful. But between heaven and earth, what is better than the sword in my hand? So every time I hear it, I want to rush up and stab a few holes in them, and see if they will bleed.”

Li Ye sneered. “Then you just go ahead; no one will stop you.”

Nangong Diyi glanced at Li Ye. “You think I am stupid? This bunch of monks is activating the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation. What if I rush forward now and get struck by lightning halfway? Normally, I would definitely stab them, even if I get struck by lightning. Now, I am really exhausted.”

While Nangong Diyi was speaking, he looked around at the crowd. “Who has the strength to stab those monks?”

Naturally, no one answered him.

Wei Xiaozhuang looked serious and added, “My master mentioned the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation, and countless talented Central Plains cultivators, those who were the best in the world, had all died under this formation. It is indefensible.”

When Wei Xiaozhuang had finished his words, everyone was looking at him foolishly. He couldn’t help but scratch his head awkwardly, and then he added solemnly, “Why don’t we run away?”

Nangong Diyi pointed to the sky and added, “Where are you running to? Look at this range, this is not a few thousand feet range.”

Wei Xiaozhuang looked up and immediately realized that the entire sky as far as the eyes could see was full of thick clouds, and Buddha’s voice echoed in the wilderness.

Soon, there was a stream of golden light showered down from the clouds, shining straight onto the wilderness. After the first stream of golden light appeared, countless other streams followed, and in the blink of an eye, there were countless golden lights behind the clouds, as if there was a holy world behind it.

Nangong Diyi was right, he, Li Xian and his son, had all been seriously wounded. They could not run fast, Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang could run, but they probably wouldn’t get far.

For hundreds of years, the top Central Plains masters left Yangguan and went Westward. In the end, they all died under the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation. Even those great cultivators could not escape from the scope of the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation. After these wars, how could they, the weakened and wounded, escape?

Everyone gripped their weapons.

In the oblique valley, Xu Pingjing, Bai Jingxue, Wu Jinling, Wang Sanxian, Zhang Jiuling and others were all shocked when they saw the mirror-reflected scenes in front of Qi Mountain. In fact, there was no need to look at the mirror. At this moment, the sky above their heads was no different from the scene in front of the Qi Mountain. The coverage of the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation had already covered them.

They had heard of the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation before, but they were still shocked when they saw it for themselves at this moment.

All five people flew from the oblique valley, and each came to a peak and looked in the direction of Qi Mountain.

At this point, the clouds in the entire sky had turned into golden clouds, and the ground was also golden. There were no other sounds except for the rolling Buddha sound. However, everyone knew that this tranquility was just the foundation before the real storm. Soon, the power capable of destroying heaven and earth would come down.

Xu Pingjing and others were all cultivators of the Spiritual Master Realm, but at the moment they felt flustered. Just facing such a scene had made them feel that their cultivation had been suppressed and the Spiritual Qi in their body was not flowing as smoothly. They seemed to have fallen into the Qi-refining realm, and not the Spiritual Masters who can fly to the sky and burrow into the ground.

“The Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation is really extraordinary.” Xu Pingjing said quietly, “Such power, if it falls on people, who could withstand it?”

As if to echo Xu Pingjing’s words, suddenly there was a sharp tremor behind the clouds. The entire sky seemed to be shaking. Then, eight purple gold flame suddenly fell down. Each of the fire pillars was over ten feet in diameter with Buddhist runes flashing around them. They seemed fierce and profound, full of power.

When the eight purple golden fire pillars appeared, Li Ye and others were engulfed in it, and they sealed their dodging lanes.

At the apex center of the eight purple golden fire pillars, flashes of lightning interlaced and formed a large net, opening up the clouds. Then it slowly fell down from the sky and covered Li Ye and crew.

Above the fire pillar and thunder-streak, a huge golden Buddha statue that occupied half of the sky slowly rose from the clouds, who then stared at Li Ye and his crew.

At the top of Qi Mountain, Tian Luo, who had been bathed in golden light, suddenly turned to Li Ye and others in the front of the mountain and spoke majestically. This time, he had no anger, there was a sense of unshaken peace and irresistible majesty in his voice, “Devil, you’ve created such chaos in the world and offended the heavens. You’ve impeded Buddhism’s prosperity. Do you feel guilty and are you ready to pay the price of death?”

Li Ye sneered and snorted, “The guardian warriors are dead, the arhats have perished, and the monk soldiers have been destroyed, what prosperity are you speaking of?”

After hearing Li Ye’s words, Xu Pingjing and others were a little stunned and kept silent.

At the end of the day, Li Ye and others had indeed damaged Buddhism’s plans.

Xu Pingjing had a very serious expression, he said to everyone, “The Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation has already been activated. Judging by its power, not only is Li Ye going to be killed, I am afraid even we will have trouble getting away from it. Now, we shall not hesitate and activate the Great Immortal-killing Formation! With the presence of the Formation, if Li Ye were to be killed, we could then annihilate those monks. We would then be the beneficiaries of the battle!”

Bai Jingxue and others slowly nodded. In the scope of the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation, Everyone’s cultivation had been suppressed, and even their basic self-protection ability was lost. Only by activating the Great Immortal-killing Formation, could they advance and retreat freely, at least they would not be threatened.

Just when everyone was about to fly back to the oblique valley and activate the Great Immortal-killing Formation, suddenly, there was a stream of light flying over from the southwest.

Xu Pingjing and others heard a hint of a clear and bright sword cry. Followed by a streak of Spiritual Qi waves, spreading over a hundred feet. It was like waves of water, but it had seven brilliant colors and more beautiful than the rainbow. It was coming from mid-air, about to arrive in an instant.

Everyone was shocked, that wave of the Spiritual Qi was clearly Sword Qi, and not just simple Sword Qi, it also had Sword Awareness and extraordinary power.

When everyone sensed the Sword Qi, they felt the crisis of life and death. Fortunately, the wave of Spiritual Qi was not directed towards them. It swept over their heads. Then everyone felt light, and the pressure on everyone’s cultivation from the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation was lifted.

Xu Pingjing and others looked at each other in shock. Who was this? Whose attack had such power that even the pressure of the Great Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation could be lifted?
