Boom!
An intense wave of energy once again surged from the Snow Stepping Flying Horse, and this ti, Hou Tianlie and Xiao Bailin, both masters of formidable soul power, exchanged glances of shock and disbelief.
This shock was even more intense than when they realized Yun Xiao possessed the lost technique. They suddenly discovered that the energy erupting from the Snow Stepping Flying Horse was a power of devouring.
"Is he using a ridian Array to reverse-devour the energy of the underground Strange Spirit?!"
Thinking of this possibility, Hou Tianlie didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings at the mont. That young boy truly didn't follow the usual rules. Is this sothing a human could achieve?
One must know that just monts ago, Hou Tianlie, an authentic middle-level Heaven Rank Beast Vein Master in the Lingyun Realm, struggled painfully against the devouring power of that underground Strange Spirit, unable even to protect himself.
And now, that young boy nad Yun Xiao, rely by deploying an Earth-Rank ridian Array, was attempting to turn defense into offense, aiming to devour the power of the underground Strange Spirit.
Is this overconfidence, or is he just highly skilled and bold? Perhaps the outco will be seen shortly.
However, in Hou Tianlie's heart, he couldn't believe that Yun Xiao's thod at this mont could truly succeed, especially since that was a Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit whose power was not inferior to his. Even if its strength hadn't fully recovered due to certain reasons, it was impossible for it to be easily subdued like this.
Boom!
Just as Hou Tianlie expected, as soon as his thought settled, and as he was about to warn Yun Xiao, a formidable energy wave suddenly erupted from beneath the Spirit Suppressing Land, startling them all.
"The Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit is starting its counterattack!"
Hou Tianlie's voice dropped a notch, his gaze also held a hint of gravity. After all, he lacked confidence in the Earth-Rank ridian Array Yun Xiao cast. Though such arrays could be miraculous, how could they compare against the devouring power of a Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit?
In Hou Tianlie's view, if it were during the Snow Stepping Flying Horse's peak condition, united with an Earth-Rank ridian Array, there might be a slight chance of success.
But now, with the Snow Stepping Flying Horse barely clinging to life, just relying on Yun Xiao's Earth-Rank ridian Array might instead provoke the Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit.
As expected, in the next instant, everyone saw the Snow Stepping Flying Horse's body violently tremble. They sensed clearly that it wouldn't be long before the Earth-Rank ridian Array would be shattered and cease to exist.
"Alas..."
Witnessing this scene, many of the Demon Mountain Elders sighed in disappointnt, even Hou Tianlie was no exception. The coarse-clothed boy had given them nurous shocks, yet he ultimately couldn't turn the tide.
"Huh?"
However, at this mont, the coarse-clothed boy paid no heed to the anomaly of the Snow Stepping Flying Horse, nor did he take any action to stabilize the Earth-Rank ridian Array. Instead, he stepped to the edge of the Spirit Suppressing Land.
"What is he looking for?"
Seeing Yun Xiao seemingly sensing sothing with his head lowered, the Demon Mountain Elders had puzzled expressions, even Hou Tianlie felt confused.
This Spirit Suppressing Land, they had visited countless tis, especially in recent months, where they had traversed almost every inch of the area, knowing it like the back of their hands.
Crack!
Yet, in the next mont, when everyone was still pondering over the situation, they saw Yun Xiao extend his foot and lightly tap the ground, then a subtle and unusual sound reached everyone's ears.
"What is that?"
In just a brief mont, from the spot beneath Yun Xiao's foot, a round hole appeared, from which a section of a golden pillar slowly erged.
This golden pillar, gradually rising, was about two to three arm spans in thickness. Its dazzling golden light made people wonder if it was entirely made of pure gold.
Moreover, the golden pillar seed to have ancient and mysterious carvings, emitting a special aura that left the Demon Mountain Elders utterly stunned.
Because they had never known that the Spirit Suppressing Land could undergo such a transformation?
Even in the notes of the founding ancestor of the Demon Mountain, there was never such a record. Yet it had now been activated by a boy who had co to the Demon Mountain for the first ti.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Yun Xiao ignored the thoughts of the Demon Mountain Elders. He circled the Spirit Suppressing Land, causing four golden pillars to rise from the ground, with mysterious carvings faintly visible on them. These pillars seed to have a subtle connection with each other.
"Is that... a special formation?"
Sensing the connection between the five golden pillars, Hou Tianlie seed to have a vague realization, murmuring to himself, and simultaneously understanding why this place was called "Spirit Suppressing Land."
Clearly, the connection between these five golden pillars was forming a kind of special formation. This large formation, unknown to all, might have produced suppressive power even underground, only now being revealed by so thod used by Yun Xiao.
"Could it be that he is actually a high-level array master?"
Xiao Bailin and the others increasingly felt their minds were not enough, as one unbelievable thing after another occurred on that simply dressed youth, each of which could be a lifeti goal unattainable for ordinary cultivators.
To have cultivated ridian Qi to the Middle Stage of Earth Bending Realm at under twenty years old; to be an Earth Rank Middle Level dical Pulse Master, Poison Vein Master, and Beast Vein Master; and now possibly an Earth-rank array master—what the hell, is he even human?
No one doubted Yun Xiao's understanding of array formations, as it was an array formation countless Mountain Masters of Demons Mountain had never discovered, yet this youth exposed it with just a few steps.
Sotis, thods to make an array formation appear could be more difficult than setting up the sa large array.
Because you simply wouldn't understand where the array flag or array core of a large array is, nor would you know if there is any danger involved, you absolutely can't approach it with the leisure and calm like Yun Xiao does.
"Indeed, it is the Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array!"
Compared to the bystanders' shocked spirits, when Yun Xiao saw the full appearance of the five golden pillars, he couldn't help but murmur, gaining more confidence in his upcoming actions.
The so-called Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array, even in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, could be regarded as a famously powerful array, with its primary function being to suppress gold attribute strange spirits.
Humanity's greatest enemies in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud are the strange spirits. The legendary Long Xiao Battle God fought countless great battles against innurable strange spirits, including those of various attributes.
Gold attribute strange spirits are said to have the strongest attack power among strange spirits. Moreover, they possess exceptionally strong physical bodies, making them extrely hard to kill. Sotis, even if captured, one would worry about their potential counterattack, leaving people unprepared.
Thus, a certain Holy Rank array master isolated a simplified version from the "Five Elents Spirit Suppressing Array," known as the "Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array," specifically to suppress those gold attribute strange spirits.
The full version of the Five Elents Spirit Suppressing Array is not sothing just anyone can perform, but the simplified version of the Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array is much easier. Even low-rank cultivators could learn and perform it, provided they are an array master.
By analogy, aside from the simplified Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array, there are also other versions like the Li Fire Suppressing Spirit Array and Gui Water Spirit Suppressing Array, used to suppress strange spirits of the five attributes.
This is the Tenglong Continent; naturally, no one can truly perform the full version of the Five Elents Spirit Suppressing Array. Upon seeing this Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array, Yun Xiao had so speculations that the inheritance of Demons Mountain might originate from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud.
Of course, now is not the ti to think about these things. Making this Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array appear wasn't for Yun Xiao to show off in front of the experts of Demons Mountain but for a more important purpose.
Due to Yun Xiao's own cultivation, the ridian array he executed earlier was only at Earth Rank Middle Level. He had long known that he couldn't possibly be a match for what seed to be a Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit, perhaps even unable to hold out for thirty minutes.
Yun Xiao had his thods, ensuring he wouldn't be devoured by that strange spirit, but that couldn't be said for the other Mountain Elders of Demons Mountain. Therefore, he hadn't even considered seeking help from Xiao Bailin and others.
However, Yun Xiao had sensed the array formation in this Spirit Suppressing Land long ago. Based on his past life's experience, setting up such a Heavenly Array wasn't feasible, but with the thods of his past life's Holy Rank array master, slightly invoking it was reluctantly possible.
Especially after confirming it was the Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array, Yun Xiao's final anxiety vanished instantly. Next, it would be the Gold-grade Heavenly Spirit's turn to suffer.
"Geng tal as the guide, activate!"
Yun Xiao stepped in front of the western golden pillar, hearing the words fall from his mouth, then saw him pat a place on his body, a golden light suddenly shooting out, directly rging into that golden pillar.
Among the Five Elents, Geng tal correlates with the west, and this western golden pillar is precisely the array core of the Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array. Combined with Yun Xiao's Gold Attribute Ancestor Vein Power, an astonishing transformation occurred in the next mont.
Swish!
An eye-catching golden light erupted from the golden pillar, splitting into four, ultimately penetrating into the other four, causing the Spirit Suppressing Land to blaze with golden light.
"Rotate!"
As Yun Xiao's hand seals shifted, the Geng tal Suppressing Spirit Array connected by the five beams of golden light began to shake, rotating around the center of the Spirit Suppressing Land, its speed increasing rapidly.
Swish swish!
Amidst the overwhelming golden light, a force burst forth from the spinning golden pillars, finally surging into the ground of the Spirit Suppressing Land.
In the next mont, everyone sensed the devouring aura on the Snow Stepping Flying Horse suddenly ease, and they couldn't help but look delighted.
