Chapter 191 Counting Harvest
Then, the chains tightened suddenly, forcefully dragging them back into the Fire Raven Sect.
What awaited these eight Grand Luo Golden Immortals was the Great Sun Golden Flame, which was already prepared.
The raging flames mercilessly devoured their bodies, burning them to ashes, and they vanished from the world once more.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light flashed by. After the light gradually dissipated, Zhao Xuan's tall figure appeared unharmed in mid-air, as if the fierce battle had had no effect on him whatsoever.
At the same time, the Golden Turtle Covering the Earth Formation, which was originally teetering on the brink of collapse, miraculously and quickly recovered to its original state, once again demonstrating its unparalleled protective power.
With the perfect restoration of the Golden Turtle Mansion's grand formation, the originally thin spiritual energy within the Fire Crow Sect's divine domain instantly became dense, surging forth like a turbulent tide.
The entire divine realm was instantly enveloped in a dreamlike spiritual mist, where exotic flowers and rare herbs vied for attention, and rare birds and beasts roamed leisurely, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene that was as enchanting as a fairyland.
All of this was actually part of Zhao Xuan's meticulous plan.
Facing eight Grand Luo Immortals, Zhao Xuan wanted to fish a second time.
Therefore, they presented themselves as invincible, and the self-destruct formation displayed a resolute posture of mutual destruction, leading the enemy to mistakenly believe that the Fire Raven Sect's divine domain was already at its end and had no power to fight back.
But in reality, this was just a tactic to lure the enemy deep into his territory.
Zhao Xuan knew that with the eight Grand Luo Immortals of Hunyuan fallen, the Heavenly Wolf Divine Realm would theoretically not come again.
Therefore, he not only wanted to kill these Grand Luo Immortals once, but also to gain enough benefits in one go.
It's not hard to imagine that when these Primordial Golden Immortals are killed and then resurrected, they must expend a massive amount of energy to reshape their physical bodies and restore their cultivation.
If they cannot seize the abundant resources within the Fire Raven Sect's divine domain as a supplement, then this operation will undoubtedly be a devastating loss for them.
Therefore, Zhao Xuan pretended that although he had successfully repelled the enemy's first attack, he had also suffered heavy damage and was unable to fight any longer.
In this way, after being resurrected, those Grand Luo Immortals, in order to make up for their previous losses and believing that victory was in their grasp, will certainly launch a second round of attacks without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xuan, who had already set a trap for them, would bring unexpected changes to these guys.
Those who can cultivate to the level of Golden Immortal can be called people favored by Creation.
However, compared to Golden Immortals, Great Luo Golden Immortals, Primordial Golden Immortals, and Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortals are beings favored by creation and even in control of creation.
After fishing, the next step is naturally to tally up the catch.
Zhao Xuan has been in the Divine Realm for nearly four thousand years.
In the long span of four thousand years, sixteen Grand Luo Immortals, one hundred Grand Luo Immortals, and five hundred Grand Luo Immortals have perished in the Fire Crow Sect's divine realm.
Not only that, but countless Taiyi Golden Immortals and Golden Immortals also rest here.
The extra portion was naturally caused by the alien beasts that were driven from the Destruction God Realm more than three thousand years ago.
The key to the so-called immortality of Golden Immortals lies in the fact that Golden Immortals have begun to possess the ability to condense the matter of creation.
The substances created by creation will merge with the divine essence, and once the physical body is damaged, it can quickly repair itself with the help of the substances created by creation.
This refers to the condensed creative matter within the divine essence, not including the creative matter contained within the immortal body.
In terms of physical body alone, a Golden Immortal's body contains at least ten thousand units of creation matter.
Moreover, with each advancement in realm, the amount of creation matter condensed increases a hundredfold.
As for the content of creative substances in the divine essence, it is far higher than that in the physical body, being ten times higher.
Although the number of cultivators who advanced from Golden Immortal to Primordial Golden Immortal in the Fire Crow Sect's divine domain was quite large, compared to the sixteen Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortals, they were merely insignificant embellishments.
Nearly 170 trillion units of creation matter remained quietly within the Fire Crow Sect's divine domain.
Zhao Xuan was not in a hurry to absorb it, for no other reason than that he had an indescribable psychological fastidiousness deep in his heart.
He really didn't want to become one of those so-called "cannibalistic" cultivators who improved their cultivation by directly devouring others.
Although no matter which world one is in, the essence of cultivation is more or less tinged with "cannibalism".
However, there is a world of difference between directly "eating people" and indirectly "eating people".
This difference is similar to how farmyard manure provides nutrients for grains, which are then consumed by humans.
Just because grains are grown with farmyard manure doesn't mean we should eat farmyard manure directly.
Initially, Zhao Xuan planned to use the materials of creation to cultivate various rare and precious natural treasures, and then extract their essence when the time was right to make up for his own lack of materials of creation.
However, after discussing the Dao with the Ten Heavenly Lords and gaining a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the cultivation system of the Divine Realm, a brand new idea arose in his mind—to achieve this transformation by using the power of the formation.
As far as Zhao Xuan knew, there were nine realms of array formations: the fifth realm was the realm of array spirit, in which array formations possessed sentience.
The sixth realm is the realm of array seals, where arrays can condense into unique marks.
The seventh realm is the realm of array diagrams, where arrays begin to display complex and mysterious patterns;
The eighth realm is called the Realm of Array Symbols, where arrays can be transformed into incredibly powerful talismans;
As for the ninth realm, it is the supreme realm of array rules. In this realm, the power of the rules contained in the array is enough to change the world.
The so-called array seal is the ultimate state reached by the array spirit after a long period of cultivation and condensation.
At this level, the originally ethereal and intangible array spirit can be condensed into a substantial existence.
In this way, even if the spirit of the formation is freed from the constraints of the formation, it can still retain its immense power.
This realm is called "Array Seal" because once one reaches it, it is like the seal in the hands of an ancient emperor, symbolizing supreme power, possessing boundless might and authority.
When the array spirit leaves its mark, it can easily imprint the astonishing power contained within the entire array onto various objects.
However, it is by no means easy to make the spirit of the formation solidify.
This requires not only a massive amount of material as its foundation, but also a massive amount of time and space matter.
Although the array spirit body at the array seal realm has some similarities to the Xuanhuang Dharma Body cultivated by Zhao Xuan, there are still certain differences between the two.
The most notable difference is that the structure of the Spirit Formation Body is slightly less stable compared to the Xuanhuang Dharma Body.
Even so, formations at this level are no longer limited to ordinary formations; they are comparable to those extremely precious spiritual treasures.
It even possesses various magical abilities, and can even transform into a battle treasure in the hands of the Heavenly Destiny God.
Just like the Four Swords of Zhuxian held by Daoist Luohou, it was by integrating his own divine essence into these spiritual treasures and by taking advantage of the unique characteristics of the divine essence, that these unparalleled weapons of war were forged through countless years of meticulous carving and perfection.
However, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation controlled by Daoist Luo Hou is by no means as simple as the array seal of the sixth realm, but rather an array symbol at the eighth realm.
The array diagram of the seventh realm is actually a more complete and powerful form of array seal.
Whether it's a spirit or a seal, the function they can exert ultimately depends on the power contained within the formation itself.
In other words, the more array power one carries, the greater the array power one can mobilize.
However, once you reach the array diagram level, the situation is completely different.
At this point, the cultivator was no longer limited to simply using the power of the formation, but had completely refined all the power over the entire formation, and could even completely control the formation base.
In this way, the array base can continuously gather power and transmit it to the array spirit through the void, enabling it to exist eternally.
At this stage, it is no longer a spirit of the formation, but can be regarded as a real living being.
Take the Golden Turtle Covering the Earth Formation as an example. Its main formation base is the sacred mountain of the Fire Crow Sect, or rather, the river within the divine realm.
As long as there are no problems with the river channel, the only way to break through this formation is to forcefully dismantle it with overwhelming power.
After all, this river channel will continuously draw energy from the mysterious and unpredictable divine river, providing a solid support for the entire grand formation.
If one can reach the eighth realm of array symbols, one can use array diagrams as array symbols and then set up a large array of array symbols.
This is equivalent to using formations to create a larger formation, which contains multiple complex formations that intertwine and complement each other, thereby achieving an unlimited increase in the power of the formations.
Imagine the terrifying power that would be unleashed when countless exquisite formations are layered and resonate with each other. It would be enough to destroy the heavens and the earth and make all living beings tremble!
The four swords of Zhuxian possessed by Daoist Luohou are each a divine sword, which is a formation talisman containing the powerful force of a seventh-realm formation.
When these four are combined with the array diagram, it is as if five seventh-level arrays are activated simultaneously, with their power layered upon layer, making it unimaginable.
It can be said that the seventh realm represents the pinnacle of the mysteries of formations. In this realm, the way of formations has reached its ultimate state.
The eighth and ninth realms are more like an extension and expansion of the seventh realm.
As for the ninth realm, it is a legendary realm, as unattainable as a dream, and even the nine super divine domain lords of the Dao Venerable realm have not reached it.
The rules of formations are also known as the rules of formations, and all the myriad formations in the world are derived from them.
