With the appearance of Karma Cang, the Ancient Ancestor of the Karma Beast Race who had been swallowed earlier, and another Dao Wanqian, the Chaos Daoist Son truly fell onto the back foot.
This final grand formation, which emerged from within his body, dashed his hopes of destroying the formations. He felt uncomfortable all over, with formation runes flowing through him from the inside out.
Formation runes that refused to dissipate flowed through his blood, soul, internal organs, and more. Even though he refined them away at incredible speed, they regenerated at an equally astonishing rate.
A hundred grand formations of the same origin across the surrounding world resonated with the formation runes inside him, making them even harder to refine away and leaving him completely on the defensive.
The Chaos Daoist Son's strength began to drop again. This time, it was not twenty percent—it plunged straight toward thirty percent!
Meanwhile, the cultivation of the Ancient Ancestor of the Ancient Formation Clan, the Ancient Ancestor of the Karma Beast Race, and Karma Cang began to rise!
After Dao Wanqian merged the Dao Wanqian who had appeared later into his body, his cultivation rose a little further, leaving him just a hair's breadth from the Third-Step Peak. This was his true cultivation.
Unlike Karma Cang and the others, he did not receive a direct boost to his strength. Instead, the strength stripped from the Chaos Daoist Son was transferred to him, which was far more terrifying than an ordinary thirty-percent increase.
After all, the Chaos Daoist Son's cultivation surpassed his, and his current strength was greater. Transferring thirty percent of that strength over might equal forty percent of Dao Wanqian's current strength, or even close to fifty percent!
"Is this really... a formation?!"
