"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, a boulder crashed down, and the frozen ground around the canyon instantly cracked open, with fissures several meters wide spreading rapidly.
"Call..."
Seeing the canyon sealed, the three members of the Tian Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief. They exchanged glances, and when Tian Ying saw Xiong Gang's extremely strained appearance, he couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, perhaps they had indeed sealed the rift this time, but what about next time, or even further into the future?
The power of this cold wind is far beyond what they have seen. Perhaps hundreds of years from now, even if they risk their lives, they will not be able to suppress this cold wind again.
And at that time, the mountain range behind them will also lose its protection...
"Well..."
Thinking of this, Tian Ying couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, Xiong Gang was panting as he got up from the ground again. As he got up, his whole body swayed slightly. He had almost exhausted all his strength in lifting that boulder. At this moment, Xiong Gang wished he could just lie on the ground and never wake up again.
But before that, he also knew that although the canyon seemed to be sealed off, the situation they faced was far more complicated than it appeared at the moment.
Although the entrance to the canyon has been sealed, the three members of the Tian Ying are well aware that beneath this boulder, at the deepest part of the canyon, an even more intense cold wind will gather due to the blockage, and this will be the crisis that the three of Tian Ying will face next.
They had to suppress the giant ruler completely before the icy wind erupted all at once, blocking the wind beneath the boulder back to the source of the crack, preventing it from surging out again. Only then could the crack be considered completely sealed.
Of course, with Xiao Yan's terrifying Spiritual Strength, he could thoroughly investigate all of this. However, compared to the three Tian Ying, Xiao Yan was far from calm, because he could feel that the power gathered under that boulder was getting stronger and stronger. This time, their seal was probably in great danger.
"Cough cough... Hurry! Seal this crack! I can already feel the power below growing stronger and stronger. If we delay any longer, things could get very bad..."
After coughing violently for a while, blood trickled from the corner of Xiong Gang's mouth, but he had no time to care about it. He quickly looked up and roared at Tian Ying and the other two before struggling to get up. With a thought, the remaining Dou Qi in his body surged out again.
Upon hearing Xiong Gang's words, Tian Ying and his companion sensed the gravity in them. Their hearts sank slightly, and they exchanged a glance before letting out a sharp shout, their Dou Qi surging forth from their bodies.
The three giant beasts each stood on one side, forming a triangle with each other, and then quickly transformed into human form, each landing on a spot on the boulder.
The three exchanged glances. Tian Ying and Yan Shi saw Xiong Gang's deathly pale face, their expressions changed slightly. However, the latter waved his hand dismissively to indicate that it was alright, and then focused all his attention on the boulder in front of him.
Seeing this, Tian Ying and Yan Shi frowned, took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and then focused their gaze on the boulder in front of them. They quickly raised their hands to their chests, and all the remaining Dou Qi in their bodies surged out at this moment.
Immediately, the three of them let out a low shout and quickly changed hand seals. Judging from their gestures, the hand seals they used were exactly the same, and the energy fluctuations emanating from those hand seals were also interconnected.
"Oh? This is actually a kind of formation?!"
Seeing the three of them like this, Xiao Yan, who was watching them from the sidelines, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. In his view, all the formations on this continent were created by formation masters, but he never expected that the three of them, Tian Ying, could actually create formations in this way. This really surprised Xiao Yan.
"This kind of formation is the simplest. As long as enough Dou Qi and Spiritual Strength are consumed, the formation can be condensed. Of course, this is different from the formations condensed by true formation masters. The maintenance of this kind of formation requires a long time to replenish with Dou Qi and Spiritual Strength, unlike those formation masters, who, once the formation is activated, do not need to pay much attention to it unless the energy within it is completely exhausted."
Seemingly sensing Xiao Yan's confusion, Murong Qianqian Xiao Yan to him. Upon hearing her words, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan nodded in understanding. When he turned to look at her, his face instantly became burning hot.
Since dodging the energy storm, Xiao Yan had forgotten that he was still tightly holding the girl's delicate hand. It was only when he turned around and saw that he was holding the girl's hand that Xiao Yan quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly pulled his hand back.
"Pfft..."
Seeing the change in Xiao Yan's expression, the girl couldn't help but burst out laughing. This scene caught Xiao Yan's eye, and a strange thought welled up in his mind.
Although this girl usually throws tantrums like a spoiled princess, she's actually quite cute when she smiles.
The thought crossed his mind for a moment, but Xiao Yan quickly realized what he was thinking and banished it from his mind. He then looked back at the Tian Ying Xiao Yan.
Seeing the expression on Xiao Yan's face, Murong Qianqian's pretty face immediately broke into a smile again. Her previous coldness towards Xiao Yan vanished as if it had never happened.
On the other side, as the hand seals of the three Tian Ying became faster and faster, they eventually reached a point where they were no longer visible and were dazzling.
At the same time, as a series of intricate hand seals were rapidly unleashed, the Dou Qi within the three individuals was also completely concentrated between their hands, and a soft white light gradually condensed at this moment.
A white light formed, and immediately shot down a beam of fighting Dou Qi as thick as an arm, like mist. After the beam of Dou Qi touched the huge rock, it split into two more beams of energy of the same thickness. The beam of energy twisted and turned like a white snake, rapidly evolving under the feet of the three people and condensing into a series of mysterious runes.
As the seals condensed, Xiao Yan noticed that the boulder beneath their feet, which had been standing still, trembled slightly, causing the three of them to be greatly alarmed.
The reason for the strange movement of this boulder is the terrifying cold wind that is constantly gathering beneath it!
Realizing this, the hand seals that the three of Tian Ying were rapidly forming suddenly accelerated, making the dazzling hand seals even more difficult to see clearly.
Meanwhile, the unusual movement of the boulder beneath their feet gradually became clearer.
Right now, it's like a competition. Which side, the formation in the hands of the three Tian Ying or the cold wind beneath their feet, will be able to erupt first? Then the final result will instantly tip in their favor.
"Boom..."
As time went by, the formations beneath the feet of the three, including Tian Ying, gradually came together. With the formations connected, a mighty aura immediately spread out from them. At the same time, the boulder beneath their feet trembled violently, and the strange movement was suppressed.
The sight of this scene immediately brought a sigh of relief to the three of them. However, before they could even smile, the boulder beneath their feet suddenly began to shake even more violently.
"Buzzing..."
With a loud buzzing sound, and as the boulder trembled, beams of azure light shot out from the edge of the suppressed canyon below, and from the narrow crevice between the boulder and the rock.
A beam of blue light shot out, and cracks quickly spread from the bottom of the boulder. At the same time, a terrifying cold wind howled out from the cracks, producing sharp, ghostly whistling sounds.
"Click click click..."
Immediately afterward, the entire boulder began to shake. Then, under Xiao Yan's gaze, the boulder that Xiong Gang had managed to lift with all his might was actually being lifted up by the cold wind, while at the same time it was resisting the immense pressure exerted by the formation beneath the three people's feet.
"This biting wind is truly fierce; it actually managed to withstand the combined force of the three of them forming an array. It seems they won't be able to hold on much longer!"
Seeing the three of them becoming increasingly unsteady amidst the violent shaking, Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown. He had already made up his mind that the moment the cold wind erupted, he would immediately take action and use the power of Gu You to completely suppress the cold wind.
Unconsciously, Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his hand under his sleeve slowly clenching, and he took the opportunity to communicate with Gu You in his heart. However, he did not notice at all that Murong Qianqian, who was beside him, was also gradually showing a solemn expression on her pretty face.
With a slight tremor of her jade-like hand beneath her sleeve, a square, light blue jade pendant appeared in Murong Qianqian's palm.
With her jade-like hand tightly gripping the jade token, Murong Qianqian's beautiful eyes were fixed on the three Tian Ying members. The Dou Qi within her body had already quietly circulated throughout her entire being. If she wished, with a full burst of speed, Murong Qianqian could reach the center of the three Tian Ying members, which was the core of the formation, in an instant.
Off the field, Xiao Yan and Murong Qianqian both kept their eyes fixed on the formation until a certain moment...
"Boom..."
A powerful force emanated from the bottom of the boulder, causing it to shake violently. The three people on it staggered, and the hand seals they were rapidly forming nearly broke.
A terrifyingly cold wind swept out from beneath the giant rock, and in the blink of an eye, the temperature of the entire area plummeted. Even from a hundred feet away, the chilling wind made one feel an icy cold.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan's expression changed instantly, and he was about to make a move.
However, in the next moment, a violent sound of wind breaking suddenly came from the void beside him. In the blink of an eye, when Xiao Yan looked closely, Murong Qianqian's delicate body had already appeared on the boulder, standing in the middle of Tian Ying and the other two.
At this moment, in his hand, a jade tablet emitting a pale blue light was held in his palm. The instant the formation beneath his feet was fully formed, he pressed it down hard.
"Buzz!!!"
A milky-white fluorescence enveloped the jade tablet, and all the Dou Qi of the three Nine-Star Half-Emperor surged into it. Instantly, the jade tablet shone with a brilliant blue light, like a comet, emitting a dazzling brilliance.
At the same time, as the azure light shot out, a special power also swept out from the jade tablet in an instant, spreading nearly a thousand miles in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the suffocatingly cold aura in the world also dissipated in an instant.
" Cold-Delaying Jade..."
Just as Xiao Yan was shocked by what he saw, Gu You, who was inside him, blurted out a word with a slightly surprised tone.
