Chapter 0676: Five Elements Dragon-Elephant Formation

Deep within the Umbra Cave.

The worldly natural energy here had taken on a more chaotic form as the elements roiled within. One moment a boundless sea of fire would sweep across the space, and the next it would transform into a deluge of seawater that smashed through the void. It was a scene that would remind one of primordial entropy.

Thunderous storms like a raging beast buffeting the void in every direction.

Within the chaotic void, a massive tear separated two world spaces.

On the outside of it was a golden lotus fluttering within the chaotic worldly natural energy. Atop the golden lotus was a single figure sitting there cross-legged. The figure exuded a profound aura that reminded one of the deepest pools and the tallest mountains, causing one to feel an incomparable sort of pressure. Although he was physically there, he seemed to exist beyond the reaches of the mortal world.

It was Astral Sage College's Principal, Pang Qianyuan.

He was currently staring aloofly at the massive tear. Within it was a black, raging river that looked like an endlessly long black dragon, saturnine as the depths of night. It gave one a feeling of unrest as the black river water continued to flow. Waves would occasionally surface, and one could see countless hideously distorted human faces emanating all of the most negative emotions inside. Greed, desire, rage, hatred, and so on...

It was a sight that would intimidate all who saw it.

The river suddenly began to toss and turn, and one could see a titanic obsidian fish reveal itself as it incited a storm. The black fish gave off bizarre and horrifying vibes as each and every scale seemed to contain a tortured human face. Each one of these faces seemed to be screaming in despair, and simply looking at it would drive one to the depths of insanity.

Child-like laughter erupted from the mouth of the black fish, and the sound traveled through the world space, entering Pang Qianyuan's ears. There was a peculiar power contained within the sound waves that would have even corrupted a Duke, causing them to lose themselves and become thralls, even for a mere moment.

Pang Qianyuan, however, remained impassive, quietly feeling the fluctuations of the worldly natural energy.

He was awaiting a single opportunity.

This was something he had prepared himself for for countless years.

A lot of time had passed by, but it all seemed like a fleeting moment to him.

Right at this very moment, a glint flashed within his eyes. He could feel that the chaotic and infinite worldly natural energy had begun to shift in a specific direction.

Pop!

At that very moment, a strange fluctuation appeared within the chaotic void. When the sound reverberated around the space, the originally chaotic worldly natural energy unexpectedly came to a halt and began to be reformed anew, as though a set of heavenly laws had appeared to bring order to the entropy.

Pang Qianyuan stood up from his golden lotus and waved his sleeve.

With a single motion, the entire space seemed to tremble and the five elements within the void soared up. The vast amounts of worldly natural energy condensed into five massive, dragon-elephant manifestations that occupied the void.

A frightening pressure descended upon everything.

"I open up the primordial chaos. Five Elements Dragon-Elephant Formation!" Pang Qianyuan announced thunderously. At that same time, ancient, mottled chains appeared atop the five manifestations, stretching out and intersected with each other, seemingly able to seal off the world itself.

The previously disorderly primordial chaos seemed to have been reborn anew as laws came into existence.

Deep within the cracks of the void and inside the river of evil, the massive, black fish was lightly waving its tail, summoning humongous waves as it leisurely said, "Pang Qianyuan, your methods are impressive. So this is what you've been preparing for all these years? Awaiting the moment when the primordial chaos rebirths itself and the ensuing calm to erect this mystical formation to repair this crack in the void? Do you think it will be that easy? Do you really think I'm a harmless herbivore?" The Ichythian King grinned as it faced the spatial tear, opening up its titanic, abyss-like mouth. A moment later, copious amounts of sticky, black water poured forth, radiating with overflowing evil. Even a Greater Heavenly Resonance cultivator would be corrupted by its demonic influence if a single drop of the black water were to fall upon them.

It passed through the void, and at that moment, an ebony arm stretched out from within the black water. It seemed a little weird as it possessed eight fingers and the skin was abnormally mottled. Numerous dusky runes surfaced upon it as viscous, black water continued to drop continuously from its pores, like the palm of the god of the underworld.

The very moment the ebony arm appeared, it seemed to shatter the void. It smashed towards Pang Qianyuan's Five Elements Dragon-Elephant Formation, intending to dispose of it in a single strike.

Pang Qianyuan took this all in stride, unhurriedly removing an object from within his robes. It was an ancient-looking goblet. Upon closer inspection, it was the Dragon Bone Holy Grail that had been retrieved by Li Luo during the Holy Grail Meet.

This holy grail transformed into a space-piercing beam of light that flew forward before explosively transforming into the size of a gigantic mountain that could touch the heavens.

At the same time, it began to emit countless mysterious rays of light that descended upon the space. Each and every ray seemed to contain a suppressive effect, and wherever the light shone over, the eight-fingered ebony arm would emit copious amounts of black smoke coupled with a miserable scream.

With the holy grail's appearance, the eight-fingered arm was shattered.action

"The Dragon Bone Holy Grail?!" the Ichythian King gloomily exclaimed from within the black river. "No wonder you dared to set up this formation in my face. You actually had this treasure in hand!"

The Dragon Bone Holy Grail possessed a special suppressive effect that was very effective on Others. It was no surprise why Pang Qianyuan seemed unfazed and unafraid.

He remained indifferent, completely ignoring the Ichythian King as he focused on the massive formation he had erected. This mystical formation was something he had deduced over many years. As he was located in the intersection between two world spaces, the worldly natural energy here possessed a chaotic nature. This had made it difficult to employ many of his methods. This time, with the aid of the formation and the temporary lull as the chaos reset within the void, he was therefore able to repair the crack in the void and resolve the crisis within the Umbra Cave.

He glimpsed at the four ancient dragon-elephant manifestations, each taking up one of the cardinal directions, before looking at the one in the middle. This was the nexus of his formation.

At this point in time, an indescribable pressure seemed to have descended upon the area with the presence of the dragon-elephant manifestations. The sides of the void crack seemed to tremble, as though it was being pushed by the sheer power of the formation.

Unfortunately, despite all the shaking, it resisted the pressure of the formation.

"It seems that after spending so much time deducing a solution, it was ultimately insufficient! Trying to close up the spatial tear is not such an easy task after all," Pang Qianyuan murmured to himself as his eyes flashed.

"Heh. Pang Qianyuan, you truly overestimate yourself. You actually tried to forcibly seal up the void tear?" The Ichythian King mocked from within the river of evil.

Pang Qianyuan coldly glanced at it, but he no longer paid any more attention to the Other. Although the formation was unable to achieve his goals, it wasn't out of his expectations. If he wanted to achieve such a colossal task, he would naturally have more methods up his sleeve. Otherwise, why would he have taken action now?

With this in mind, he waved at the giant Dragon Bone Holy Grail. Immediately after, some blood essence shot out, floating before him drop by drop.

The blood essence was round and clear like a gem. Although others may not be able to see the mysteries hidden within, Pang Qianyuan was not any average individual. His gaze was able to discern the special bloodline that was contained within the depths of the blood essence.

This blood essence had been provided by Li Luo.

"Heavenly Dragon Energy..."

Pang Qianyuan focused upon the blood essence with a slight smile. His palms were grasped together at this instant, and vast amounts of energy surged forth. It formed something like a stellar furnace, smelting the blood essence that tumbled madly within. It melted down very quickly, and eventually what was left were a few wisps of golden-yellow energy that could barely be seen by the naked eye. This energy was his true aim.

Adding Heavenly Dragon Energy into the Five Elements Dragon Elephant Formation would provide it with heaven-shattering strength for a brief amount of time. With such strength, there was a possibility he could seal up the gap.

Pang Qianyuan pointed forward, and the energy shot forth, quickly assimilating with the massive dragon elephant manifestations. The manifestations evidently seemed to have gained a boost. Their huge bodies swelled up and even their roars contained a sense of sacred pressure.

Boom!

The ancient dragon elephants then floated up, pulling a piece of the chaos itself like a chariot.

Everything rumbled and the void tear no longer remained stationary. With the vigorous galloping of the dragon elephant manifestations, the huge cracks were slowly being pulled together whilst violently trembling.

Seeing this sight, Pang Qianyuan heaved a sigh of relief internally.

His numerous years of preparation were all for this.

If the void tear could be sealed, then the Astral Sage College's Umbra Cave would be suppressed and they would be able to enjoy a prolonged period of peace.

The void tear continued to rumble violently as tides of energy continued to pour forth from it, but the forceful reparation continued.

More importantly, the black river of evil in the other world space was similarly buffeted by massive waves, and the gigantic black fish was stuck within. Its terrifying, white eyes continued to watch the scene coldly and quietly.
