Lingbao Array Diagram
"Om-long!"
However, even after the fall of the Hegemon Body, the Sea of Bitterness continued its turbulent waves, and soon eight more peak Great Sage corpses flew out of Sea of Bitterness. Like the previous Hegemon Body, they were all peak Great Sage had perished here, their bodies corrupted by the Sea of Bitterness, becoming its guardians.
"Really, when will this ever end!" Zhou Tong once again unleashed the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
The three avatars instantly rushed into the Sea of Bitterness, directly engaging in a fierce battle with the remaining eight Great Sage corpses.
However, the battle did not last long. Zhou Tong's Three Pure Ones Incarnation moved freely among the corpses of the eight Great Sage, unstoppable. In an instant, he returned victorious with a large amount of spoils.
These peak Great Sage were all powerful figures who once dominated the world, possessing considerable wealth. In addition to their Dao Proving Artifact, their spoils of war included not only Immortal Material but also divine ingredients sufficient to refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir.
"One corner of the Array Diagram is complete. Next is the second corner..." Zhou Tong continued to inscribe the Array Diagram, each stroke carefully executed. With each perfected corner of the Great Emperor Array Patterns, the power increased exponentially.
"Boom!"
Over the next few days, Zhou Tong continued to refine the Array Patterns. Once the second Great Emperor Array Patterns was perfected, divine might raged, the Sea of Bitterness Bitterness surged, and even the Star Scripture in the sky Holy Capital.
"The second corner Array Patterns is complete, and the next step is the third corner Array Patterns!" Zhou Tong took a deep breath, his mind still constantly evolving and deducing using the Nine Secrets: Zu.
The Great Emperor Array Patterns are difficult to preserve. Even if someone obtains the Array Diagram, they usually only have a corner of it. To complete more, they must use their own array cultivation to deduce the subsequent Array Patterns little by little.
The Nine Secrets: Zu is an unparalleled tool for deducing Array Patterns, and now it is deducing the Array Patterns of the Lingbao Heavenly Venerate, making it smoother than ever before. The third corner Array Patterns gradually emerged in the Void the Great in front of Zhou Tong.
One can clearly see fine and intricate patterns in the Void the Great, stretching for miles and weaving together to form a star-like trajectory that covers every corner of the Void the Great.
"Sizzle!"
The moment the third corner Array Diagram was completed, at the center of the Sea of Bitterness, a sword aura pierced through heaven and earth, tearing apart the Void the Great and slicing down the Star Scripture in the sky. A sword beam that terrified all living beings in heaven and earth transformed into a huge sword pillar that stood proudly there, its unparalleled and terrifying killing intent shaking the ages.
"The Four Immortal Slaying Swords have sensed my Array Patterns and show signs of resurrection. I don't know if it's good or bad!" Zhou Tong was very nervous. He had secretly prepared many Emperor-level items, such as the Sun Sacred Emperor's Array Diagram, the Azure Emperor Weapon, the broken Demon Emperor's Ruler, the Sacred Spirit Stone Token, and the Tian Yuan Stone Tablet, to suppress the Four Immortal Slaying Swords at any time.
His main goal in coming here was to obtain the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. With this, the difficulty of the upcoming Dark Turmoil would decrease by one or two orders of magnitude.
"The real Array Diagram is still on the God's Other Shore. At most, only one projection can descend here. With so many Imperial Weapon in my hands, I should be able to withstand it!" Zhou Tong pondered for a while, and the Nine-Colored Vajra Ring, along with the broken Demon Emperor's Ruler and Sacred Spirit Stone Token, appeared, ready to provide support at any time.
Meanwhile, Zhou Tong had already begun to inscribe the fourth corner of the Lingbao Array Diagram in the Void the Great.
"Ugh!!"
The moment the first Dao Pattern of the fourth corner Array Diagram was engraved, Zhou Tong let out a muffled groan. He felt an extremely terrifying killing intent spreading from the array Array Patterns in the Void the Great toward him.
It was like a divine sword filled with Killing Intent, aiming to slay his primordial spirit.
"The fourth corner Array Patterns is slightly beyond my limit!" Zhou Tong understood that this was because his array cultivation was still insufficient, and setting up the fourth corner spiritual treasure Array Patterns would inevitably require a lot of effort and energy.
"No rush, take your time!" Zhou Tong continued to deduce the Array Patterns.
This time, he set up the formation extremely slowly, needing to meditate and rest for half a day after inscribing just one or two Array Patterns. It took a full year for this fourth-corner killing formation to gradually take shape, perfectly combining with the preceding triangular killing formation.
"Om!"
The moment the fourth corner Array Diagram was formed, the entire Sea of Bitterness was engulfed in turmoil, with winds rising, sword energy surging, Star River falling, the universe shattering, and giant stars exploding and falling from time to time, smashing the black Sea of Bitterness into towering waves that flooded the depths of the star field.
"That's a projection of Array Diagram!!" Zhou Tong opened his Martial Heavenly Eye, risking damage to his eyes, which showed Purple Blood cracks, and shot out two brilliant beams of light that reached the center of the sea, where he saw an Array Diagram.
The Array Diagram was imprinted with the most ancient and mysterious Great Dao Runes, like an incomparably deep universe, containing the most terrifying calamity in the world, terrifying beyond measure.
However, as Zhou Tong looked over, the Array Diagram blurred instantly, turning into a phantom before disappearing completely.
"Disappeared? Did they realize that this was just Array Diagram?" Zhou Tong was taken aback.
He originally thought that by carving an array in the Void the Great here and imprinting the Lingbao Array Diagram, he could lure out the four Killing Sword in the Celestial Venerable Wheel Sea, but he still failed.
"The Array Diagram of Lingbao Heavenly Venerate has always been resurrected and has a deep connection with these four Killing Sword. It can easily revive the Emperor Swords, so the Array Patterns I set up here are useless," Zhou Tong thought to himself.
"It seems we still have to go to the deepest part of the Wheel Sea!" Zhou Tong was speechless, having wasted almost a year here.
"No, we can't let this year's achievements go to waste. Instead of leaving the Array Patterns we've worked so hard to set up here, we should refine them into a complete Array Diagram!"
Zhou Tong pondered for a while, and finally took out a piece of Crimson Dawn Divine Gold. He melted some Chaos Earth into it, which made the Crimson Dawn Divine Gold, which was originally dotted with crimson glow and flowing with light, dim and turn into a dark red.
Although Crimson Dawn Divine Gold is a material sufficient to forge Great Sage Weapon, it has already reached its limit in bearing the Four Corner Great Emperor Array Patterns. If it is used at full power, it will be in danger of being damaged after a few uses.
After being integrated with the Chaos Earth, the dark red material of the Star Scripture became more than capable of supporting the four-corner Array Diagram, and there might even be a chance to arrange the fifth-corner Array Patterns in the future.
Finally, he refined the dark red material into an array plate, and then slowly absorbed the Array Patterns he had imprinted in the Void the Great into it.
"Clang!!"
The array plate was finally formed. With a little divine power infused into it, the aura of the Great Dao flowed on the dark red array plate, as if it could suppress the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. The Killing Intent surged wildly and boiled over.
"Next, we'll head to the center of the Celestial Venerable Wheel Sea and try to subdue the Four Immortal Slaying Swords!" Zhou Tong then looked at some massive, mountain-like ships not far away, which were specially built by our predecessors for crossing the sea.
Zhou Tong landed on the ancient ship, activated his magic, and the ancient ship immediately rode the wind and waves, transforming into a streak of light and rushing into the dark ocean.
