Terran Guardian - Chapter 4141

Chapter 4116: Jiang Beitian

Subsequently,

Jiang Beize sent someone directly to the Taiwei Realm to confirm the matter.

The Seven Profound Dao Sect’s message was one thing,

but he still needed to verify the specific situation in the Taiwei Realm.

Then,

the smile on Jiang Beize’s face faded, and his expression became solemn again.

“Taiyi Immortal Sect—”

He looked towards the direction of the Eastern Hua Immortal Domain, where the main battlefield was.

The destruction of the Taiwei Realm would at most weaken the Taiyi Immortal Sect slightly, insignificant.

The real key to victory lay in the Eastern Hua Immortal Domain battlefield.

More precisely,

it was the battlefield of the three Dao Venerables.

But a clash of powerhouses at that level couldn’t be decided in a short time.

In terms of strength ,

neither of the two Dao Venerables of the Taiyi Immortal Sect could possibly be a match for Jiang Daoxuan.

But if the two Dao Venerables joined forces, the outcome would be uncertain.

However,

a clash of powerhouses at this level was not something other cultivators could interfere with.

Even a Saint of the third realm, the Supreme Realm, is nothing more than a slightly larger ant before a Dao Venerable.

Now,

the Jiang family has almost entirely mobilized its resources.

Although Jiang Beice is the current head of the Jiang family, he is merely a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.

Ultimately

, the position of family head is simply a choice made public by generations of Jiang family powerhouses to handle family affairs.

Their actual strength is questionable.

…

Seven Profound Divine Tower.

Within the first level of space.

Shen Changqing is currently focusing all his efforts on comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram.

The Saintly Dao Fruit in his sea of consciousness trembled slightly, and a profound understanding surged into his mind, making many obscure and difficult parts of the array diagram suddenly clear.

Under these circumstances, Shen Changqing’s efficiency in comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram naturally increased greatly.

It should be noted that

Shen Changqing’s own comprehension is already extraordinary.

Now, with the assistance of the Saintly Dao Fruit, comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram is like adding wings to a tiger.

A myriad of profound feelings welled up within him, deepening his understanding of this array formation.

As a grand array at the Saint level, this kind of formation encompassed countless treasures, truly profound beyond profound.

Thus,

Shen Changqing’s mastery and understanding of array formations continued to improve.

After an unknown period,

a strong feeling of fatigue surged within him, forcing Shen Changqing to withdraw his divine sense from the array diagram.

“Less than a hundred years of comprehension, yet the consumption of divine sense is already quite significant!”

He looked at the array diagram before him and couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.

Strictly speaking, he hadn’t even been comprehension for a hundred years, but the consumption of divine sense was already severe, which was somewhat beyond Shen Changqing’s expectations.

After all, he had already broken through to the Half-Saint realm, his divine soul had further improved, and his divine sense power had naturally become much stronger.

Even so,

comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram was difficult to maintain for long.

However,

Shen Changqing could also see

that the reason for his severe consumption was largely related to his Saintly Dao Fruit.

The Sage’s Dao Fruit carries all the insights gained from the Great Dao of the Sage. This power indirectly grants cultivators the vision of a Sage. Even if they don’t comprehend the Great Dao of the Sage, but rather other aspects, the effects are still astonishing.

However, the faster the comprehension, the greater the consumption.

Without the Sage’s Dao Fruit, Shen Changqing believed he wouldn’t have been unable to maintain this for a hundred years.

Similarly ,

without the Sage’s Dao Fruit,

he would have found it extremely difficult to comprehend much in such a short time.

But now it’s different.

Comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram with the Sage’s Dao Fruit, while consuming a great deal, yields astonishing results.

In fact, even ten thousand years, or even a hundred thousand years, of normal cultivation might not compare to the gains of less than a hundred years.

Afterwards,

Shen Changqing closed his eyes to cultivate, silently recovering from the depletion of his divine sense.

After an unknown period, he reopened his eyes, and then saw that with a thought, a vast amount of immortal energy gathered in the void of his immortal abode.

Immediately afterwards…

Using his divine sense as a brush, Shen Changqing directly inscribed array patterns in the void. The vast immortal energy seemed to be manipulated by an unseen hand, ultimately outlining extremely profound patterns.

The process was neither fast nor slow, and as the last array pattern was completed,

the next moment…

“Buzz!”

The void trembled, and a mysterious wave spread out, instantly covering the area of about ten feet in front of him.

Shen Changqing grasped that space in his hand, shrinking it to a tiny square inch, like an unfathomable and constantly changing mist surging in his palm.

“Still not good!”

Looking at the array in his palm, Shen Changqing shook his head slightly, then closed his five fingers and crushed it.

This array was a new Taiwei Yin-Yang Array he had created after comprehending the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array Diagram, relying on his own foundation in array principles.

But unfortunately…

Both being Taiwei Yin-Yang Formations, the formation Shen Changqing set up was worlds apart from the true Taiwei Yin-Yang Formation of the Taiwei Realm.

The latter was unfathomable; even with his discerning eye, without Jiu Ye’s guidance, he would have struggled to find the slightest flaw.

The former, however,

was riddled with holes in Shen Changqing’s eyes.

In truth, his own Taiwei Yin-Yang Formation could at best withstand an ordinary First Tribulation Half-Saint.

A Second Tribulation Half-Saint could easily break it.

This was

naturally not the outcome Shen Changqing desired.

Then…

He recalled his insights from comprehending the Taiwei Liangyi Array Diagram and quickly began setting up the array for the second time.

However, a moment later, Shen Changqing destroyed the array he had just created.

This was no different from the previous array.

Soon,

Shen Changqing began setting up the array for the third time, only to destroy it again.

The fourth time!

The fifth time!

The sixth time!

…

For the rest of the time, Shen Changqing repeatedly set up arrays.

Each array setup was a way for him to digest the insights he had gained from comprehending the Taiwei Liangyi Array Diagram.

At the same time,

the array he set up was gradually being perfected.

Time passed slowly.

Until a certain critical point.

“Buzz—”

A new array suddenly took shape. Looking at the changes within the small space in his palm, Shen Changqing finally smiled.

“Although the flaws still exist, this array is now so powerful that even a Second Tribulation Half-Saint wouldn’t be able to break it so easily!”

An array that could stop a Second Tribulation Half-Saint meant that this array had officially entered the ranks of the Eighth-Order, Second-Grade Grand Array.

Of course—

being able to stop a Second Tribulation Half-Saint doesn’t mean that a Second Tribulation Half-Saint is invincible.

A stronger Second Tribulation Half-Saint might still have a chance to break the formation.

However, regardless, an eighth-tier, second-grade formation is ultimately incomparable to the previous ones.

The former could be easily broken by a Second Tribulation Half-Saint, while the latter is difficult for anyone less powerful than a Second Tribulation Half-Saint.

Thus,

Shen Changqing’s cultivation in formations has officially transformed from an eighth-tier, first-grade formation master to an eighth-tier, second-grade formation master.

A difference of one grade, yet a world of difference.

Afterwards,

Shen Changqing glanced at the Taiwei Yin-Yang Formation Diagram and continued to comprehend it.

He had now fully digested what he had learned previously, and the best way to consolidate his cultivation was to continue comprehending.

…

“Taiwei Realm!”

A middle-aged Daoist traversed the void, looking at the world existing in the chaotic star river before him. His divine sense expanded, sensing the lingering fluctuations of aura in the chaotic void, and his expression gradually became solemn.

“The aura of a fallen demigod… such a lingering aura indicates at least a sixth-tribulation level or higher. It seems Dao Shu has truly fallen!”

Jiang Beitian muttered to himself, his expression grave.

Dao Shu, the Lord of the Taiwei Realm, was a genuine eighth-tribulation demigod.

But now,

he had fallen.

Although Jiang Beitian had known of this before arriving,

witnessing this scene in the Taiwei Realm still deeply shocked him.

It was hard to imagine that

a realm as powerful as the Taiwei Realm could be breached by the Seven Profound Dao Sect in such a short time, with even an eighth-tribulation demigod like Dao Shu falling in battle.

It should be known

that the Taiwei Realm’s strength was formidable, and its greatest reliance was its saintly foundation.

Its protective array, the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array, was said to be unbreakable without the intervention of a saint.

This was why the Taiwei Realm was so difficult to conquer.

Even top-tier demigods would retreat before such a protective array.

But now—

the Taiwei Yin-Yang Array was broken!

Dao Shu had fallen!

The vast Taiwei Realm had fallen entirely into the hands of the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

This outcome naturally shocked Jiang Beitian.

Subsequently,

Jiang Beitian did not enter the Taiwei Realm without authorization, but deliberately released his aura. In less than a moment, a cultivator traversed the void from the Taiwei Realm.

“This is the Taiwei Realm. May I ask who you are and what your purpose is?”

Zhong Yu looked at the person before him, his expression serious but without much malice.

After all, Jiang Beitian had deliberately released his aura, indicating that the other party was likely not an enemy.

However,

Zhong Yu remained secretly vigilant.

He could sense that the cultivator before him was not weak, at least at the Fifth Tribulation Half-Saint level.

Zhong Yu dared not be careless towards such a powerful figure.

“This humble Daoist is Jiang Beitian of the Jidu Jiang Family. I have come here on the orders of my family head!”

Jiang Beitian politely cupped his hands and smiled faintly.

Upon hearing the words “Jidu Jiang Family,” Zhong Yu’s expression immediately softened, and a smile appeared on his face.

“So it’s a powerful figure from the Jiang family who has come in person. May I ask if you have any proof?”

“Of course I do.”

Jiang Beitian didn’t waste any words, directly producing his Jiang family identity token. Zhong Yu scanned it with his divine sense and immediately sensed nothing amiss with the token’s aura.

After all, he had seen the Jiang family token before, and he was very familiar with the aura emanating from it.

Having confirmed the other party’s identity, Zhong Yu’s expression became even more polite.

After all, the Seven Profound Dao Sect now served the Jiang family, and with a half-saint from the Jiang family present, he naturally had to be courteous.

In terms of strength, the Jidu Jiang family was far superior to the former Divine Sun Immortal Court.

Although both were supreme powers, one was a supreme power in the Eastern Bright Immortal Continent, while the other was merely a supreme power in the Divine Wind Continent—the difference was obvious.
