85: Chapter 85 S-Rank Wonder: The Nine-Dragon Wall!

Deep within the skeletal grand hall, the firelight flickered.

Beneath that terrifying giant beast, whose size was so immense it defied description, lay a cyan stone wall standing ten zhang high and tens of zhang wide.

The surface of the stone wall emitted a vast, ancient, and heavy aura resembling the very beginning of the primordial era.

Carved upon the stone wall were nine lifelike Huaxia true dragons in various postures!

Some soared through the clouds and drove the mist, some lurked in abysses to control the waters, and others glared with wide-open, angry eyes.

The nine true dragons seemed to possess life, slowly swimming across the stone wall and exuding a supreme coercion that surpassed all heavens and ten thousand Dao!

[Ding! Alarm! Alarm!]

[Unknown extremely high-energy reaction detected!]

[S-Grade Divine Kingdom Wonder building [nine dragons wall] discovered!]

An S-Grade Divine Kingdom Wonder!

This was legendary as a supreme treasure that even high-stage Creators would fight head-on for until they bled!

As long as it was taken into the divine kingdom, the true dragon essence blood produced every day would be enough to cause an epic, qualitative metamorphosis of his Azure Dragon Guards!

"Lord God?"

"Lord God, please calm down!" Yushi's voice was suppressed to the lowest pitch.

His fingers clenched slightly as he pointed at the giant beast coiled like a mountain deep within the hall: "That is an adult Dragon Clan member at the Peak of the Late Stage Third Order!

It doesn't even need to make a move; with just a single breath, the two of us, along with the one thousand Azure Dragon Guardss outside, will all turn to ashes!"

"The chasm between the Second Order and Third Order is fundamentally something that cannot be bridged by tactics and Formations. This is courting death!"

Lin Yunfei stared fixedly at the nine dragons wall, his chest heaving violently.

Time ticked away second by second, and the madness in Lin Yunfei's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a trace of deep helplessness and sobriety.

"Sigh..."

Lin Yunfei let out a long sigh, powerlessly lowered his hands, and could only sigh at his own inadequacy.

"You are right."

Lin Yunfei's voice recovered its former calmness. Although it exuded intense unwillingness, he had not lost his rationality.

"No matter how good the item is, one must have the life to take it.

Dragging the entire Azure Dragon Guards into this for a piece of stone is not worth it."

"Let's withdraw while it hasn't woken up yet."

When he said these words, Lin Yunfei felt as if his heart was bleeding.

Entering a mountain of treasures only to return empty-handed was simply more painful than killing him for a Creator.

Hearing this, Yushi instantly let out a long breath in his heart.

He truly feared that Lin Yunfei would act on a hot head and directly order a charge inside.

The two of them restrained all their auras, resembling two temperatureless shadows, and cautiously retreated toward the outside of the grand hall along those huge skeletal pillars.

One step, two steps.

Just as they were about to exit the shadow range of the skeletal grand hall...

Suddenly!

"Hoo!!"

Deep within the grand hall, that Third-Order Dragon emitted a heavy, protracted breath.

Following closely, Lin Yunfei acutely sensed that the coercion at the Peak of the Late Stage Third Order in the air, which had originally been so oppressive that it made people unable to breathe, actually began to plummet frantically like receding seawater!

Middle Stage Third Order!

Early Stage Third Order!

Peak Second Order!

In just a few breaths of time, the aura fluctuations emitted from that Dragon dropped abruptly to the level of the Peak Second Order!

"Hmm?!"

Lin Yunfei's retreating footsteps abruptly paused, and he suddenly turned his head, his eyes staring fixedly deep into the grand hall.

Yushi was also full of astonishment, looking at this bizarre scene at a loss.

"What is going on? Why did its cultivation Realm suddenly drop by so much?" Yushi transmitted his voice with mixed shock and doubt.

Lin Yunfei did not answer immediately.

At this moment, his brain operated frantically like a supercomputer, countless pieces of knowledge regarding the Laws of the Creator world flashing through his mind.

After a moment.

"Hum!!!"

That Dragon seemed to sense a trace of discomfort in its sleep, and its massive body twisted restlessly.

Following closely, the aura on its body surged forth once more like a volcanic eruption, instantly climbing back from the Peak Second Order to the terrifying Realm of the Peak of the Late Stage Third Order!

But the moment it climbed to the apex, the surrounding Void Realm actually emitted a "creak, creak" sound resembling shattering glass, as if an invisible, magnificent power was frantically repelling this Third-Order power!

The Dragon let out a painful muffled grunt, its aura forcibly suppressed once more, plunging back down to the Peak Second Order.

Watching this scene, the confusion in Lin Yunfei's eyes instantly vanished like smoke in thin air, replaced by a flash of sudden realization!

"I understand!"

An excited arc curled up the corners of Lin Yunfei's mouth, his eyes glowing startlingly bright.

"This is not its problem, but the problem of this world!"

"Yushi, don't forget!

This is the Crimson Wasteland, a [Second-Order Wild Divine Kingdom] that can only accommodate Second-Order power at most!"

Lin Yunfei spoke at an extremely fast pace, pouring out all of his deductions:

"Although this Dragon has the strength of the Late Stage Third Order, it resides within this fragmented Second-Order space.

If it uninhibitedly releases its Third-Order cultivation Realm, it will instantly attract the frantic repulsion and annihilation of the foundational Laws of this divine kingdom, and may even lead to the collapse of the entire space!"

"Therefore, it cannot maintain its Third-Order cultivation Realm all the time!"

"In order to survive here and to slumber peacefully, it must divide off the vast majority of its power to resist the repulsive force of space, and forcibly suppress its emitted aura at the critical point of the Peak Second Order!"

Hearing Lin Yunfei's analysis, Yushi also gasped a breath of cold air.

A slumbering Dragon that had to forcibly suppress its own cultivation Realm in order to contend against the Laws of heaven and earth!

"Lord God, you mean..." Yushi's heartbeat accelerated once more.

"Since the energy fluctuations it currently displays are only at the Peak Second Order, we perhaps truly have a sliver of a chance!"

A fanatical desire for the nine dragons wall reignited in the depths of Lin Yunfei's eyes.

As long as it was within the category of the Second Order, the one thousand Azure Dragon Guardss under his command who formed the [Azure Dragon Nine Transformations Array] would definitely have the strength to fight!

"Let's go, back!"

Lin Yunfei made a prompt and decisive decision, leading Yushi back into the shadows of the bone pillars once more.

"We cannot act rashly; let's probe first."

Lin Yunfei stared at the nine dragons wall radiating an ancient aura several hundred meters away, making a gesture to Yushi beside him.

"Yushi, use your weakest power to touch the edge of that stone wall and see if there are any other defense mechanisms.

Remember, it must be completely silent!"

"Understood."

Yushi nodded, taking a deep breath.

His slender fingers flicked gently in the Void Realm.

"Drip."

A drop of xuanming heavy water smaller than a soybean and possessing almost no energy fluctuations, resembling an invisible bullet, silently pierced through the air and shot toward the edge of the nine dragons wall beneath the Dragon.

Fifty meters.

Twenty meters.

Ten meters.

Just at the instant that drop of xuanming heavy water was about to land on the nine dragons wall!

"Hum!!!"

Deep within the grand hall, which had originally been completely empty, a blinding dark golden light suddenly flashed!

An immensely huge, translucent light barrier resembling an overturned giant bowl emerged without any warning, tightly protecting the slumbering Dragon along with the nine dragons wall within it!

"Sish, sish, sish!!!"

The drop of xuanming heavy water possessing extremely strong corrosive power, the instant it touched this layer of dark golden light barrier, actually acted like a water droplet falling onto a red-hot iron plate, not even able to stir up a trace of ripples before being instantly vaporized into nothingness!

What was even more terrifying was that on the surface of this light barrier, countless densely packed, extremely complex ancient dragon language runes were actually flowing!

These runes swam across the light barrier like living creatures, exuding a sense of despairing indestructibility.

"This is... a Formation?!"

Lin Yunfei's pupils shrank abruptly, his expression sinking instantly.

"No wonder this Dragon dared to slumber here with complete peace of mind; as it turned out, it had laid down such a terrifying defensive Formation around its own lair!"

Lin Yunfei refused to believe it.

He closed his eyes, attempting to use the Creator's spatial authority to let his Divine Thought penetrate this layer of light barrier and directly contact the nine dragons wall.

However, just as his Divine Thought touched that layer of dark golden light barrier, he instantly felt a terrifying resistance resembling a copper wall and iron wall.

Not only that, the dragon language runes on the light barrier flashed violently once, bursting forth with a strong rebounding force that nearly shredded Lin Yunfei's Divine Thought directly!

Lin Yunfei let out a muffled grunt, taking half a step backward as his face turned slightly pale.

"We can't get in. We simply can't get in!"

Lin Yunfei gritted his teeth, staring fixedly at that layer of light barrier.

"This is an absolute passive defensive Formation, and judging from the movement trajectory of those runes, this Formation has already connected together with this vein of land and even the Dragon's own vitality!"

"With our current means, if we want to break through it, we must unleash berserk attacks surpassing the Peak Second Order to forcibly smash this layer of tortoise shell!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yushi's gaze dimmed once more.

This was simply an inescapable dead end.

Use ultimate moves to smash the Formation?

The terrifying commotion generated by that would definitely wake up the slumbering Third-Order Dragon inside the Formation at the very first moment!

By that time, the Dragon would be furious, and even if they obtained the nine dragons wall, they would have to face an endless pursuit from a Third-Order Divine Beast!

"Sigh, it seems treasures like this are ultimately not meant for us."

Yushi shook his head, his tone filled with regret.

Clearly the mountain of treasures was right before their eyes, and even the Dragon had been suppressed by the Laws of heaven and earth, yet all hope was completely blocked off by this layer of defensive Formation.

Yet right at this moment, Lin Yunfei noticed the movement beside him, and an idea instantly formed in his heart!
