175: Chapter 175 A Demon Saint's Offspring in the Mahayana Stage?
Ji Taichang's eyes lit up with a mysterious glimmer, and endless, minuscule runes intertwined to form countless miniature Formations, as if he could perceive the Origin of all things.
The yang yao disk circling him also spun rapidly, and a profound power resonated with Ji Taichang.
In Ji Taichang's line of sight,
mysterious symbols appeared around the seemingly empty mountain. On the ground, lines of Formation patterns intertwined to form an incredibly profound and extraordinary Formation capable of blocking external intrusion.
"This Formation... is quite extraordinary!"
A look of surprise flashed in Ji Taichang's eyes.
He possessed all of Chiyangzi's insights into the Dao of Formations and was a genuine Seventh-Rank Array Master, yet he still found this Formation to be extremely complex, mysterious, and somewhat troublesome.
Fortunately,
this Formation seemed to have existed for an extremely long time and had been eroded by some unknown power, causing obvious weak points to appear; there were quite a few flaws, and it was not complete.
Ji Taichang formed hand seals, chanted mantras, and cast streams of imprints into the yang yao disk.
This top-grade Magic Treasure emitted strands of multicolored light that continuously sank into the Void Realm, beginning to dismantle the Formation.
"Something's wrong!"
"He is... breaking the Formation!!"
"This boy actually possesses such extraordinary attainments in the Dao of Formations?!"
Yun Qiyao's face showed shock as she stared intently at Ji Taichang, her eyes filled with astonishment!
With Yun Qiyao's strength, she could naturally see the defensive Formation hidden in the Void Realm, and she could also tell that Ji Taichang was breaking it.
In her past life,
as a powerhouse at the Mahayana Stage, although she primarily cultivated the Dao of the Sword, she had also dabbled in alchemy, Formations, talismans, and artifacts, possessing no small amount of skill.
Thus, she could see that the attainments in Formations Ji Taichang was displaying were extremely powerful and profound, so profound that even she found them somewhat incomprehensible!
He was merely a junior at the Soul Transformation Stage, yet his attainments in Formations were actually this strong!
Moreover, Ji Taichang possessed three Supreme-level talents; it was clear that the Dao of Formations was not his primary Dao!
"What kind of monster is this?!"
"Could he really be an Immortal's Reincarnation?"
Yun Qiyao's heart was unsettled, and she felt that Ji Taichang was becoming increasingly mysterious and unfathomable!
At the same time, a sense of secret joy and anticipation welled up in Yun Qiyao's heart!
The more astonishing Ji Taichang's performance, the more terrifying his future achievements would surely be; perhaps when the time came, Ji Taichang could really help her suppress that bitch in the Shuiyue Holy Land!
[Ding! Yun Qiyao's favorability increased by 1 point]
[Yun Qiyao's favorability: 6 (There will be a surprise when favorability reaches 100!)]
A quarter of an hour later.
Ji Taichang activated the yang yao disk with all his might, finally dismantling part of the Formation, breaking through a weak node, and forcibly tearing open a gap!
"Let's go!"
Ji Taichang pulled Lan Huaying and rushed into the Formation, heading toward the mountain where auspicious energy was steaming.
"This is—"
When approaching the summit, Ji Taichang's pupils suddenly constricted slightly, and his heart jolted.
He saw that there was actually an extremely profound and astonishing Formation on the summit, with Supreme runes branded into the Void Realm, pulling down the essence of heaven and earth and the power of stars from beyond the realm, forcibly plundering the fortune of heaven and earth to continuously gather it at the center of the Formation!
And at the center of the Formation, a mysterious egg was floating, emitting seven-colored light.
"Whoever could set up these two Formations must be a top-tier Seventh-Rank Array Master, or perhaps even a Mahayana Stage powerhouse!"
"Could it be a Mahayana Stage Demon Saint incubating its own offspring?!"
Ji Taichang licked his lips, his heart thumping, quite excited and expectant!
Although the Formation before him could forcibly plunder the fortune of heaven and earth, it did not have very strong defensive power. Relying on the yang yao disk to protect his body, Ji Taichang charged straight in and grabbed the egg!
The egg was extremely heavy and sturdy, guarded by some mysterious power, so Ji Taichang could not probe its interior condition.
After a moment of thought, he suddenly took out the fire cloud pill cauldron, threw the egg directly inside, and lit a fire beneath the fire cloud pill cauldron.
Lan Huaying, standing to the side, watched with jaw-dropped astonishment and couldn't help saying: "Fellow Daoist Ji, this egg is so mysterious and extraordinary; wouldn't it be too wasteful to just boil it and eat it like this?"
"..."
Ji Taichang's mouth twitched slightly: "I am incubating the egg. This egg is tough; this level of fire won't boil it at all."
As he spoke.
The temperature inside the fire cloud pill cauldron rose sharply, causing the egg to vibrate along with it. Dense cracks appeared on its surface, and a surging aura of life rose up, like a vast ocean rising and falling!
"It hatched so quickly?!"
Ji Taichang was delighted, immediately poured the egg out of the fire cloud pill cauldron, and stared at it with burning eyes.
Under the expectant gazes of Ji Taichang and Lan Huaying, brilliant seven-colored light bloomed from within, the eggshell shattered, and a bald, ugly-cute fledgling bird popped out.
It blinked its large, watery eyes, staring eye-to-eye with Ji Taichang.
"What are you looking at?"
The next moment, the fledgling bird suddenly spoke human language, its voice crisp and childish.
"?"
Ji Taichang's eyes widened slightly, and he grabbed the fledgling bird, his eyes gleaming: "It's actually a bird that can talk! Good... truly rare, a rare treasure!"
"Ouch, what are you doing?"
The fledgling bird was startled by Ji Taichang's burning gaze and immediately began to struggle violently.
It was only the size of a palm, but its strength was incredibly large; with Ji Taichang's strength, he actually almost couldn't hold onto it!
"Good, good, good... you little bird, you truly make me happy!"
Ji Taichang was increasingly delighted, even more convinced that this bird was very likely the offspring of a Mahayana Stage Demon Saint!
Ji Taichang licked his lips and immediately activated the human emperor flag, condensing a Soul imprint, attempting to strike it into the fledgling bird's Soul to enslave it.
But a strange scene occurred.
The Soul imprint actually disappeared silently when it approached the fledgling bird!
Ji Taichang frowned slightly and immediately said: "Xiao Yao, you try!"
Yun Qiyao nodded and activated the human emperor flag with all her might, attempting to forcibly enslave the fledgling bird.
Her current cultivation strength was higher than Ji Taichang's, and she could unleash greater power from the human emperor flag.
But... she also failed!
"Master, something is wrong!"
A strange look flashed in Yun Qiyao's eyes as she stared at the fledgling bird: "There is a mysterious power guarding it inside its body; even I cannot see through it."
"And there are two such extraordinary Formations guarding this place..."
"Either it is an offspring carefully protected by some Mahayana Stage Demon Saint, or it is some Demon Saint in Nirvana Rebirth!!"
Yun Qiyao's words were shocking, and she immediately made her judgment!
In her past life, she was the Holy Master of the Shuiyue Holy Land, a powerhouse of the Mahayana Stage; her judgment was extremely sharp and vicious!
"Who cares; now that it has fallen into my hands, it is my pet!"
Ji Taichang licked his lips, firmly grabbed the fledgling bird, and pinched its head: "From now on, you are this seat's pet, and your name shall be... Kunkun!"
