Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 2256: Perfecting the Formation to Slay a Mighty Foe
Both the Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu were skeptical about Baili Mingyue’s claim that Fang Bai was confident enough to kill the Hu Wei Immortal King.
In their view, Fang Bai was still young, at a stage of youthful recklessness and impulse. His desire to slay the Hu Wei Immortal King seemed like an impulsive decision made without considering the consequences.
Did he not realize what the consequences might be if he failed?
The Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu exchanged a glance, both seeing the bitterness and helplessness in each other’s eyes.
The Formation they set up with Baili Mingyue seemed like it could only hold for a dozen seconds under the Hu Wei Immortal King’s fierce assault before crumbling.
By then, the Hu Wei Immortal King, who possessed the Immortal King Cultivation Realm, would launch an attack on them.
"Forget it, when the time comes, even if we have to risk our lives, we must prevent Hu Wei Immortal King from harming Fang Bai and Baili Mingyue, giving them a chance to escape!"
The Broken Sword Immortal King conveyed to Fairy Jianyu through a mental transmission.
Fairy Jianyu nodded gravely.
The siblings spoke no more and immediately began to regulate their breath, hoping to recover from their wounds and replenish their Immortal Qi as much as possible before the Hu Wei Immortal King broke free.
Fang Bai looked down from above at the Hu Wei Immortal King, who was desperately trying to break the formation, as if watching a trapped beast, a hint of amusement on his face.
"The Formation you set up has too many flaws; otherwise, it could trap the Hu Wei Immortal King! Mingyue, come here..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Fang Bai suddenly turned around and waved at Baili Mingyue in the distance.
Having withdrawn far away so as not to interfere with Fang Bai’s battle with the Hu Wei Immortal King, Baili Mingyue flew back to his side upon seeing Fang Bai wave at him.
"There are a few areas in the Formation that need improvement. Watch carefully..."
As Fang Bai spoke, his hands traced patterns in the air, and Baili Mingyue saw the space in front of him flicker with light, revealing array patterns and runes.
Then Fang Bai pressed his hands down, and the glowing array patterns and runes fell like meteors around the Formation below.
The once shuddering Formation, on the brink of collapse, instantly stabilized, standing firm against the Hu Wei Immortal King’s furious attacks.
"Ah... ah..."
The Hu Wei Immortal King, who seemed moments away from breaking the Formation, suddenly found it transformed into an impregnable fortress, leaving him shouting in frustration.
The Hu Wei Immortal King’s roaring startled the Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu, who looked to see the Formation now appeared vastly different. The Hu Wei Immortal King, who had been laughing arrogantly and confidently moments ago, was now trapped inside with no effect from his attacks.
"This..."
The siblings were both surprised and delighted, turning their gaze to Fang Bai.
They had heard Fang Bai mention to Baili Mingyue that "this Formation needs some improvements" and never imagined that Fang Bai’s modifications would give the Formation such powerful defensive strength, raising its level far beyond their expectations.
"Did you see clearly? Next time you set up a Formation, follow what I just taught you, and it won’t be a problem to trap a Second Grade Immortal King for several hours!"
Fang Bai turned his head and smiled at Baili Mingyue.
"Got it!"
Baili Mingyue, being very smart, immediately grasped the Formation Fang Bai taught and was filled with excitement.
After thoroughly understanding the Formation, if she encountered a formidable enemy beyond her own Cultivation Level in the future, she could lure them into the Formation, exhaust their immortal power over several hours, and potentially turn the tables.
"I originally wanted to slay him myself, but that would be too merciful for him..."
Fang Bai looked at the furious Hu Wei Immortal King in the Formation below with a cold glint in his eyes and sneered, "This Formation is both offensive and defensive. Once he’s exhausted his immortal power, then it’ll be time for the Formation to counterattack. Let him taste the agony of a thousand cuts!"
Finally, the Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu realized that their thoughts had been completely wrong.
The exquisitely perfected Formation by Fang Bai, flawless, was something they hadn’t seen since the fall of the Palace Master a thousand years ago, truly capable of trapping and slaying the Hu Wei Immortal King.
"Having such a genius among the descendants of the Emperor’s Palace is truly a blessing!"
The siblings were overjoyed, filled with endless emotion, and finally relaxed, tending to their injuries with peace of mind.
At this time, the dozen or so high-ranking officials of the City Lord Mansion were finally frightened, fleeing in all directions as dozens of Immortal Tigers attacked relentlessly, paying no heed to the Hu Wei Immortal King trapped in the Formation.
The Broken Sword Immortal King had the assistance of Healing Immortal Pills gifted by Fang Bai, and Fairy Jianyu’s injuries weren’t too severe. After two hours, the siblings had recovered about seventy to eighty percent, appearing full of vigor beside Fang Bai and Baili Mingyue.
"The Hu Wei Immortal King is at the end of his strength!"
The siblings overlooked the Hu Wei Immortal King in the Immortal Array, seeing his offensive power quickly diminish from its peak. Knowing he couldn’t hold on much longer, they were all smiles.
"It’s time..."
Fang Bai murmured and flicked an Immortal Stone into the Formation.
As the Immortal Stone fell into the Array Eye, the Formation instantly switched from defensive to offensive mode.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
...
Sharp blades of energy sliced through the air from all directions of the Formation toward the Hu Wei Immortal King within.
Each blade carried the power equivalent to the full-force attack of an Immortal King Realm Expert.
If the Hu Wei Immortal King had been at his peak, he could have gathered his Immortal Domain to withstand them for a while, but now, with his immortal power nearly exhausted, he stood no chance.
"Ah!"
The moment the first blade lacerated the Hu Wei Immortal King’s body, he lost all ability to resist, letting the torrent of blade attacks tear through him.
Thousands of sharp blades piercing the Hu Wei Immortal King’s body left visible bloody holes.
In an instant, the Hu Wei Immortal King, possessing the Second Grade Immortal King Realm, became a heap of flesh, lifeless on the ground.
"This Formation... it’s incredible!"
Baili Mingyue watched in awe as the Hu Wei Immortal King was indeed "cut to pieces" by the Formation, her eyes shining with excitement.
The Broken Sword Immortal King and Fairy Jianyu were both dumbfounded, their faces full of disbelief.
They had seen that through Fang Bai’s improvements, the Formation could trap the Hu Wei Immortal King, but they never imagined it could become powerful enough to easily kill him.
Thinking back to Baili Mingyue’s statement that Fang Bai was confident of slaying the Hu Wei Immortal King, their doubts now seemed misplaced. Indeed, they had underestimated Fang Bai.
Now, they even believed Baili Mingyue’s earlier words that Fang Bai had an extraordinary ability to challenge higher levels, and even without relying on the Formation, he could have defeated the Hu Wei Immortal King by himself.
Such a prodigious talent is truly a blessing to the Emperor’s Palace!
