Chapter 1005: Chapter 933: Stalemate in Battle After cursing inwardly,
whether it was Di Chen or Jin Busan, both of them felt more or less uneasy.
Especially Di Chen.
As the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall, and with Jisheng Hall in charge of overseeing the many forces of the Red Domain,
what he most wanted to see was all these forces keeping each other in check, not a situation where a single sect dominated.
This was a very delicate balance.
Because although the three of them were in balance, they were also constantly at odds, with conflict flaring up from time to time—just like how they could not tolerate the Nine-tailed Race—but overall, things remained in a state of balance within the Red Domain.
Yet now the Red Leaf Sect showed faint signs of declining.
As for whether the Red Leaf Sect’s future would turn out good or bad, it was hard to say.
In this situation, Xuan Court Pavilion and the Yin Yang Family had both chosen to befriend the Immortal Sect.
On top of that, the Domain Master also wished to be on friendly terms with the Immortal Sect, to establish a long-term and stable cooperation with the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader.
Judging from the current state of the Immortal Sect, and inferring from the possibility that a Celestial Unrestricted Realm expert stood behind them, the Immortal Sect very likely might become the one power that overshadowed all others in the future.
If that happened, the power structure of the Red Domain would be turned upside down in an instant.
That was something neither Di Chen nor Jin Busan wanted to see.
Just as the two exchanged looks, the situation on the battlefield on the plains underwent a subtle change once more.
The four of them had no idea where Yun Liao would appear from, because their Perception could not capture the trajectory of Yun Liao’s movements.
This left the four with a stifling frustration like a clever woman unable to cook without rice.
They could only block Yun Liao’s spells again and again, and shatter the Mirror Lake Barrier on all four sides again and again.
But the shattered Mirror Lake Barrier kept restoring itself over and over, making the four grow increasingly irritable.
Fortunately, Nu Huanfeng calmed down in time. Under his direction, the four of them immediately formed a Vein Array.
Bang!
The massive Meridian Gate they condensed immediately formed a layer of earth-yellow circular shield around the four of them.
It was covered in the lines of the earth, looking just like the surface of the ground.
This was the Vein Array Technique.
Shield of the Earth!
Unlike Vein Techniques, the Vein Array Technique was not divided by Grade.
The Vein Array Technique depended on the number of people forming the Vein Formation Array, and on who those people were.
The more people there were, the stronger the Vein Array Technique.
The stronger the people forming the Vein Formation Array, the stronger the Vein Array Technique would naturally be.
When the Bone Spirit Cold Fire surged over, this layer of earth-yellow Shield of the Earth protected the four so tightly that not a drop could get through.
The Bone Spirit Cold Fire could melt away the outer shell of the earth shield, but for the time being it could not truly melt the Shield of the Earth itself.
Under the protection of the Shield of the Earth, the four rapidly spread their Perception over the entire battlefield on the plains, waiting for Yun Liao to appear again.
"Next comes the moment of seizing our chance. As long as we catch one mistake from Yun Liao, we can kill him with a single blow." Nu Huanfeng locked his Perception onto the battlefield on the plains and added, "Although his Spirit Body is very fragile and can’t withstand powerful attacks, we mustn’t take him lightly. We can’t give Yun Liao a second chance, because he definitely won’t give us a second chance."
Nu Huanfeng had already thought it through: the Mirror Lake Barrier Yun Liao cast was his method for fighting the four of them alone.
By relying on this bizarre method, he had managed to stalemate them and make all four of them deeply uncomfortable.
But behind this "strength," Nu Huanfeng also saw one thing.
That was that Yun Liao had stepped out of the Mirror Lake Barrier.
If he stayed shrunk inside the Mirror Lake Barrier, they really would have a hard time dealing with him.
But once Yun Liao wanted to attack them, he had to step out of the Mirror Lake Barrier, giving them an opening to strike.
Now that the four of them had formed a Vein Array, they only needed to hit Yun Liao once!
Just that once!
Nu Huanfeng was confident he could kill him outright.
Time ticked by as the Bone Spirit Cold Fire kept melting the spherical Shield of the Earth, placing considerable pressure on the four.
But this pressure was still bearable.
However, once they hid behind the Shield of the Earth, Yun Liao seemed to have no intention of coming out again.
"He must be hiding somewhere behind this right now," Nu Huanfeng said to himself.
Since he liked competing in patience,
then they’d see whose patience lasted longer.
Could the four of them really lose to just one man?
Yet just as Nu Huanfeng was thinking this, Ji Tian Fengxin suddenly roared toward the sky, "Yun Liao!"
