Chapter 103 The Innate Earth Element Array
Suddenly, a cloud of pitch-black mist appeared, a vast expanse of darkness, silently drifting towards Feng Zichen without causing the slightest ripple.
"Chaotic Fiend Qi!"
Having just destroyed the long arrow, Feng Zichen hadn't even had time to catch his breath when he caught a glimpse of the black mist out of the corner of his eye. A chill ran down his spine, and he cried out abruptly,
"Primordial Qi, go!"
Knowing the power of the Chaotic Fiend Qi, Feng Zichen's right hand formed a hand seal. His inner power surged, and amidst the swirling Daoist aura, his index and middle fingers joined together to form a sword, slashing at the void.
A splashing sound rang out.
As the sword finger swept across, a dazzling purple light flashed, and the void suddenly parted. Primordial Qi surged out, transforming into a magnificent purple river, flowing forward and rushing towards the Chaotic Fiend Qi.
With a deafening roar, the Primordial Qi and the Chaotic Qi collided, intertwining and devouring each other in a fierce and tumultuous battle.
One was the primordial Qi, the origin of all things, capable of assimilating all creation; the other was the destructive Qi, the most malevolent force in the world, capable of eroding all things.
As they clashed, purple and black Qi intertwined, seemingly expounding the principles of birth and death. The aura of the Great Dao permeated the air, giving rise to countless transformations.
Starry seas manifested, phantoms of demonic gods appeared, myriad spirits roared, and ferocious beasts howled… They fought fiercely, exploding and shattering in a horrific display.
The Chaotic Qi, originating from the Chaotic Demon God, possessed terrifying power. While the Primordial Qi was of high quality, Feng Zichen's cultivation level was too low to unleash its full potential.
Consequently, under the impact of the Chaotic Qi, the Primordial Qi not only failed to gain the upper hand but also gradually fell behind, forced to retract its power and remain in a stalemate with the Chaotic Qi.
"Hmph!"
"I underestimated you. I didn't expect you to have such methods."
"However, here, no matter how many methods you have, they are useless!"
Seeing that his two trump cards were blocked by Feng Zichen, the Demon Embryo was shocked, but his face remained expressionless. With a thought, tens of thousands of earth-yellow rays of light spewed from the earth's origin, striking towards him.
In mid-air, Feng Zichen stood with his sword. Seeing the earth-yellow rays of light surging towards him, he turned his body, and the tip of his sword drew a sword ring in the void.
Swoosh! Purple light flashed, forming a ring, and boundless sword energy shot out, sweeping in all directions, slashing at the surging earth-yellow rays of light, shattering them one by one.
"Come down here!" Just as Feng Zichen was entangled with the earth-yellow rays of light, the Demon Embryo roared, and the earth's origin suddenly changed, evolving into a huge vortex.
With a deafening roar, the vortex appeared, emitting a tremendous suction force, exuding an aura of engulfing all directions, pulling towards Feng Zichen in mid-air.
"What?" Feng Zichen felt an immense force strike him, as if he were carrying a mountain on his back. His body suddenly became tens of thousands of times heavier, and caught off guard, he tumbled downwards, falling into the vortex.
"Haha, suppress me!" Seeing this, the demonic fetus laughed loudly, mobilizing its primordial power to suppress Feng Zichen.
Instantly, the earth's primordial energy changed again, manifesting colossal mountains that rose into the sky and fell into the vortex, blocking it and suppressing Feng Zichen within.
As one mountain after another fell, the earth's power within the vortex grew increasingly dense, coalescing into an incomparably heavy mass, as if it would crush the heavens and earth, suppressing Feng Zichen to the point of being unable to move.
"Fellow Daoist, I'll give you one more chance. As long as you hand over the inheritance, I'll let you go and spare your life!" Ancient Daoist words echoed in the void, carrying a seductive intent, addressed to Feng Zichen.
"You?"
"A cowardly rat hiding his head and tail, you think you can kill me?"
"What a dream!"
Unable to move, Feng Zichen rolled his eyes and cursed at the void. At the same time, he released his divine sense, scanning the void, trying to find the demonic fetus's true form.
Unfortunately, the voice came from all directions, elusive and uncertain, making it impossible for Feng Zichen to pinpoint its location. He scanned the void several times with his divine sense but found no trace of the demonic fetus.
Clearly, the demonic fetus was very cautious; even though Feng Zichen was suppressed and unable to move, it remained hidden in the shadows, refusing to show itself.
"Hmph!"
"I was going to spare your life, but since you are so ungrateful and eager to die, then I will grant your wish."
"Innate Earth Element Formation, refine it for me!"
Although killing and devouring Feng Zichen would still grant him his inheritance, the inheritance would inevitably be incomplete, ultimately not as complete as what he had voluntarily handed over.
But Feng Zichen was incredibly foul-mouthed, calling him a rat at every turn, which enraged the demonic fetus. It no longer cared about anything else and immediately activated the formation, intending to refine him to death.
A rumbling, earthen-yellow light surged, assaulting Feng Zichen. It seeped into his body through his pores, flowing to his limbs and bones, constantly altering his physical structure, attempting to petrify him.
In moments, under the onslaught of this boundless power, Feng Zichen's skin began to petrify, transforming into stone.
"So this formation is the legendary Innate Earth Element Formation. No wonder it trapped me, preventing any escape."
"That demonic fetus was formed from the arm of the Earth Demon God; it's understandable that it could control this formation."
"However, I didn't expect it to be so patient, only using this formation now, catching me completely off guard."
"If I hadn't planned to run, it probably wouldn't have even used this formation, continuing to hide it, saving it as a trump card, a killer move, to deliver a fatal blow at a crucial moment."
"This demon is very cunning!"
From the demonic fetus's words, Feng Zichen understood that he was being suppressed by the Innate Earth Element Formation.
The enormous vortex, the countless mountains surrounding him, and the earthen-yellow light surging into his body all originated from it.
The Primordial Earth Element Grand Array is a manifestation of the Earth Element Dao, existing before Heaven and Earth. It is the highest array of this Dao, containing all the mysteries of the Earth Element Dao.
At the same time, it is also one of the five Primordial Five Elements Grand Arrays. While a single Primordial Earth Element Grand Array is powerful, in the primordial world, it can only be considered first-rate, far from being a top-tier array.
The Primordial Five Elements Grand Array is different; it is a true top-tier array of the primordial world.
The five elements interact and restrain each other, cycling endlessly, encompassing all things, forming the cornerstone of Heaven and Earth. The Primordial Five Elements Grand Array is named after the five elements, indicating its immense power.
"If this formation were a Primordial Five Elements Grand Formation, it might truly be able to suppress and kill me. Unfortunately, a mere Primordial Earth Element Grand Formation is utterly ineffective against me."
"Moreover, your Primordial Earth Element Grand Formation is incomplete, lacking the necessary elements for its setup, thus its power is significantly weakened. How can it possibly kill me!"
It must be understood that the reason a top-tier formation is a top-tier formation, besides representing the Great Dao itself, is also closely related to the elements used to set it up.
