Chapter 1653 - 1653: The Impenetrable Great Formation (12 Updates)

Luan Ping looked at the empty Medicine King Mountain ahead and said in a low voice, "Grand Master, if An Shiping left such a great formation here, then isn't it unbreakable?""Hmph!" The Corpse Ghost Dragon snorted coldly and said, "Since I know the setup method of this great formation, it's not a difficult task for me at all. Wait here and watch how I break this mountain-sealing array. An Shiping has learned Taoist secret techniques, but he's far from as skilled as I am!"

After saying this, the Corpse Ghost Dragon walked straight into the mountain-sealing array of Medicine King Mountain. Luan Ping and the others immediately became alert, all staring at the Corpse Ghost Dragon entering Medicine King Mountain, eager to see how he would break the formation.

Like the previous thirty people, the Corpse Ghost Dragon took a few random steps inside and was already hundreds of meters away, incredibly miraculous.

"Hahaha..." The Corpse Ghost Dragon sneered, "Earth Shrinking Skill, indeed exquisite. But so what? My spiritual power far exceeds that of ordinary people, and as long as I don't get lost in this great formation, I can walk out. Your Earth Shrinking Skill has no effect on me, but rather can send me into Medicine King Mountain even faster!"

The Corpse Ghost Dragon laughed coldly, striding forward relentlessly. He was sure of his direction and didn't change it. By his calculations, it would take less than a minute to walk out of this formation.

However, after walking for nearly ten minutes, the Corpse Ghost Dragon still couldn't walk out of the formation. On the contrary, he couldn't see anyone around or hear a single sound.

"What's going on?" The Corpse Ghost Dragon frowned, completely bewildered by the situation. In ten minutes, at this rate, it shouldn't be just leaving the mountain-sealing array; he should have reached the top of Medicine King Mountain. But after walking back and forth, he was clearly still within the formation and hadn't walked out!

"No, this great formation isn't just as simple as Earth Shrinking Skill!" The Corpse Ghost Dragon suddenly shook his head, turned around and observed for a while, then exclaimed, "Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru! Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru! Life is like a mustard seed containing Mount Sumeru; the heart is like a speck of dust hiding the great thousand. This is a Buddhist secret technique, opposite to the Taoist Earth Shrinking Skill. The Taoist Earth Shrinking Skill can turn a thousand miles into inches, whereas Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru can turn inches into thousands of miles. These two secret techniques are completely opposite, supposedly restraining each other. Why... why would they appear together in the mountain-sealing array of Medicine King Mountain? What on earth is going on?"

Lowly whispering, the Corpse Ghost Dragon was filled with doubt and shock in his heart. From outside, he only saw Earth Shrinking Skill, with no idea that Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru of the Buddhist Sect was included here. Not only do both secret techniques exist within the formation, they are also harmonious together, far beyond his understanding.

When the Corpse Ghost Dragon first entered, a step covered tens of meters, which was the Taoist Earth Shrinking Skill. But after walking for so long, he was still going in circles, which was the Buddhist Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru. These two secret techniques combined meant this great formation was a Buddhist and Taoist fusion, not easily broken!

The Corpse Ghost Dragon turned a few circles in place, his brow furrowing, and said deeply, "Impossible! Impossible! Even if An Shiping learned secret techniques from Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, Heaven Earth Man Three Gates were established by the Taoist Sect, and the secret techniques inside were Taoist secret techniques, not Buddhist secret techniques. But now, there are profound Buddhist secret techniques in the great formation. What's going on here? No matter how capable An Shiping is, he couldn't make Buddhist and Taoist secret techniques fuse together! No, no, this great formation was definitely not created by An Shiping. To create such a great formation, it must be someone at the top of Buddhist and Taoist Sects!"

Saying this, the Corpse Ghost Dragon's face changed again, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Shijia, Wuji! That's right, that's right! This mountain-sealing array must have been set up by Shijia and Wuji together with An Shiping. Otherwise, how could An Shiping alone create such a formation? Who else in the world can merge Buddhist and Taoist secret techniques other than Shijia and Wuji?"

Understanding this, the Corpse Ghost Dragon immediately clenched his fists and said deeply, "Shijia, Wuji, you two juniors actually helped An Shiping such a big favor. It seems you also want to make a move on An Shiping's legacy. Good! Good! Good! Today, I want to see how capable you two are. Even if Buddhist and Taoist secret techniques are fused, so what? My spiritual power is invincible under the heavens, as long as I find your formation eye, I can break this array. The top figures of Buddhist and Taoist Sects, hmph, today I'll let you know that a Buddhist and Taoist alliance is not my match, the Corpse Ghost Dragon!"

In his anger, the Corpse Ghost Dragon simply closed his eyes, relying on feeling to sense the fluctuation of power around him. Once he finds the formation eye according to this power fluctuation, he can completely break the formation. At that moment, even Buddhist and Taoist secret techniques will have no use.

It has to be said that the Corpse Ghost Dragon's spiritual power is indeed strong. After closing his eyes for a short time, he sensed a powerful force. He walked toward that force immediately, and soon, he arrived near it.

"This is the place!" The Corpse Ghost Dragon rejoiced, opened his eyes, and looked around, only to find in astonishment that there was nothing around him, no formation eye at all. Moreover, the force he felt a moment ago suddenly vanished.

"What's going on?" The Corpse Ghost Dragon whispered, and closed his eyes again to sense. Soon, he felt a powerful force again, but this time it was still not far from him. As for the force he sensed before, it had completely disappeared, as if it never existed.

Though surprised, the Corpse Ghost Dragon didn't think much, following the force. Soon, he reached the next force. However, this time the situation was identical to the last; when he opened his eyes, there was nothing around, and the sensed force had vanished without a trace.

"What's going on?" The Corpse Ghost Dragon felt a bit annoyed in his heart. He prided himself on having spiritual power invincible under the heavens, certainly capable of finding the formation eye. But after failing twice in a row, it was a blatant insult to his strength.

"I don't believe it!" The Corpse Ghost Dragon shouted angrily and closed his eyes again to search. After missing five times in a row this way, the Corpse Ghost Dragon finally confirmed he was utterly incapable of locating the formation eye.

"My spiritual power can't find the formation eye?" The Corpse Ghost Dragon frowned tightly and said deeply, "Why do I always sense power when I close my eyes, but can't find it when I open them? What's going on? Could it be that someone is interfering with my spiritual power?"

Thinking this, the Corpse Ghost Dragon suddenly stiffened in expression, saying in a low voice, "Damn it, I actually forgot. Since An Shiping asked Shijia and Wuji to help him set up Earth Shrinking Skill and Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru formations, he might have sought other spiritual power experts to help him set up spiritual interference too. Since he wants to completely seal the mountain, he must be well-prepared. Right, he must have invited an expert adept in spiritual power, for sure. Hmph, only the True Buddha from Brahmanism could have stronger spiritual power than me. Is it possible An Shiping invited the True Buddha to complement this great formation?"

If An Shiping were alive to hear the Corpse Ghost Dragon's words, he'd be utterly shocked. Because the Corpse Ghost Dragon guessed exactly right; An Shiping indeed invited the True Buddha to help complete this formation.

The mountain-sealing array of Medicine King Mountain, as the Corpse Ghost Dragon said, was created by Shijia and Wuji together. One was the top figure in the Buddhist Sect, the other the top figure in the Taoist Sect, both mastering their sect's secret techniques. Their collaboration created such a formation, which could practically keep everyone outside. However, for safety, Divine Doctor An Shiping still invited the True Buddha to leave spiritual interference within the formation, completely completing it.

This is also why Bai Li Xi was so arrogantly shouting earlier that no one in the world could enter the great formation of Medicine King Mountain. Very simply, because no one can simultaneously master the secret techniques of both Buddhist and Taoist Sects. If you master the Taoist Sect, you can't pass the Buddhist Mustard Seed Mount Sumeru, and vice versa. Even if you're not afraid of these two, there's still the spiritual control left by the True Buddha, the hardest to overcome. The spiritual control is like the illusion in the last checkpoint of the Demon Hideout Cave, utterly indefensible.

This great formation, not just the Corpse Ghost Dragon, but even Shijia, Wuji, and the True Buddha who helped build it couldn't get through it. So, what Bai Li Xi said was no exaggeration, but true!

Having realized the origin of this great formation, the Corpse Ghost Dragon was utterly bewildered. He knew that if it truly was created by Shijia, Wuji, and the True Buddha together, he wouldn't be able to get through it even if he fully restored his power. Thus, breaking the mountain-sealing array of Medicine King Mountain is entirely impossible!

After a brief silence, the Corpse Ghost Dragon suddenly turned and walked away. He knew very well that he couldn't break this formation, and rather than being trapped inside, it was better to leave quickly. Staying inside the formation would only make one sink deeper, hard to exit, and maybe end up trapped to death.

At this time, Medicine King Mountain was bustling. Ning Qianshu had come down and brought Liu Ruxiang, trapped in the formation unable to get out, away. Meanwhile, Ye Qing also brought Shen Tianjun to the mountaintop, waiting for Ning Qianshu and others to come up.

Shen Tianjun had taken the herbs that Bai Li Xi found for him, his inner strength gradually recovering, his aura steadily rising. Shen Tianjun's expression also turned increasingly cold. He used to be very tranquil, but the Shen Family Manor incident had made him no longer calm.
