rew her right thumb nail across her index finger, causing a drop of blood to appear. She then extended her index finger and swiftly inscribed a strange archaic character on the token. A faint trail of...After successfully gathering the auras of three Buddhist relics, Lu Xiaoteng originally planned to fight and retreat. Now, he has changed his mind somewhat, wanting to outmaneuver the celestial army more, using the power of formations to continuously weaken their strength.
However, Lu Xiaoteng soon discovered a few anomalies. Since the energy of the three Buddhist artifacts had entered his body, it never stopped flowing, as if the energy within the Buddhist formation had found a more perfect host. As a result, Lu Xiaoteng was able to integrate into the Buddhist formation even more perfectly.
At least for now, it seems to be harmless. With the Heavenly Punishment Palace army pressing down on them, Lu Xiaottian didn't have time to worry about such changes. The appearance of the three Buddhist holy artifacts allowed Lu Xiaottian to utilize more power from the Buddhist formations, bringing forth many unbelievable changes.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Originally, Lu Xia Tian's Yuanshen was already extremely powerful. At this time, with the help of the three sacred artifacts, he further expanded his influence to the areas where Yin Ye Fo Tong, Jin Ye Fo Lan, and Jing Shi Fo Lian were located. At this time, simply reaching the area of Yin Ye Fo Tong, and the surrounding fairy army had already numbered over 100,000, and was still increasing, each military formation strict and responsive as they advanced. Although the Yin Ye Fo Tong area continuously produced numerous Buddhist Stupa appearances, causing trouble for the fairy army, it was not enough to shake the ranks of the fairy army. One after another Buddhist Stupa appearances were crushed by them.
At this time, Lu Xia Tian's main body was still sitting in the silver-leaved Bodhi tree, beginning to gather the golden leaves of Bodhi and the energy from the Buddhist lotus. The gap between the vanguard led by the master of Hanti Palace and the rear of the celestial army had finally been widened considerably. This was Lu Xia Tian's chance.
The silver leaves of the entire grove of Buddha Trees were torn apart by the celestial army, creating passages of various sizes and widths. Now that Lu Xia Tian could further influence this large formation, the originally fixed passages, both big and small, started to change slowly.
As Golden Immortals, Jin Shi Que and Han Chi Palace Master naturally sensed this change at the first moment.
“This formation is even more difficult to deal with than before.” The master of Hanchi Palace frowned.
"This is natural. Originally, the formation only relied on its innate ability to operate. Whether it was an enemy invasion or self-repair of the formation, that was the main focus. Now that I have control, it naturally leans more towards offense. This time, all the celestial armies entering the Buddhist formation's interior will leave their preparations behind." At this moment, Lu Xia Tian's image appeared in mid-air above Yin Ye Fo Tong, overlooking all the celestial armies, including Jin Shi Que and Han Chi Palace Master.
"You're spouting nonsense! Last time, if it weren't for your collusion with that demoness, I would have had you arrested and killed long ago. Don't even talk about today's misfortune!"
Seeing a mere celestial being, a little upstart, dare to appear before him and talk arrogantly, Jin Shi angrily shouted, “You who practice alchemy, if you had just stayed in Jiuyang City and diligently practiced your craft, it would have been fine. But you chose to be disobedient, colluding with demons, violating the celestial laws and bringing downworldly beings. The Heavenly Punishment Palace has not wronged you. If you are wise, surrender quickly and you may still save your life. To resist is like stopping a chariot – do not wait until you are reduced to ashes before you know what regret truly means.”
"Young friend from the East, I am here on behalf of Mu Xia. If you surrender now, I can try my best to spare your life. Even if you are taken back to the Heavenly Tribunal, with your abilities, if you are willing to contribute, there is still hope for survival. All acts of resistance are insignificant to the Celestial Court."
When the Lord of Cold Chi Palace heard Jin Shi Que's words, she was still surprised. Before Lu Xiaotian entered Luo Yang Prison, she didn't know that Jin Shi Que had already encountered Lu Xiaotian. As for the female demon leader who was connected with Lu Xiaotian, the Lord of Cold Chi Palace was even more at a loss. It seemed that Lu Xiaotian did have many stories unknown to outsiders. However, the Lord of Cold Chi Palace still took this opportunity to advise Lu Xiaotian to turn back while he could.
“If I am brought back to the Heavenly Punishment Palace by force, my life or death will be entirely at their disposal. Even my seniors only say there’s hope, meaning I would still likely face the harshest punishments from Heaven. Cultivators who defy the heavens fight against fate; how can we entrust our lives and deaths to the mercy of others If the Heavenly Punishment Palace wants to fight, then I shall fight too! No matter who stands in my path, be they enemy or foe, I will cut them down with a single sword!” Lu Xiaoteng’s voice was calm yet possessed an aura that struck both the Chimera Palace Master and Jin Shi Que, as well as countless celestial soldiers, leaving them awestruck.
"This child has a deep obsession. If he is not dealt with sooner rather than later, he will eventually become a great harm to the heavenly court." Seeing that earth-shattering aura, Jin Shique also became dazed and muttered softly. As just a golden immortal, he even felt a sense of being overwhelmed by this astonishing aura.
The Palace Master of the Cold Chi Palace sighed and stopped persuading Lu Xia Tian. The first time he met Lu Xia Tian, although Lu Xia Tian sometimes showed his sharp edges, it was directed at the provocation of Yu Xuan Heavenly Court. At that time, it wasn't just Lu Xia Tian; everyone in the Hong Hao Heavenly Court felt indignant. Overall, towards the people of Hong Hao Heavenly Court, Lu Xia Tian could still be considered humble and polite. Even other immortals with lower cultivation levels did not feel the arrogance of a superior person on Lu Xia Tian's body.
Until this moment, the Palace Master of Han Chi Palace had only just seen this side of Lu Xia Tian. He possessed a talent that was beyond the reach of ordinary people, an unyielding spirit, and an intrepid heart that dared to confront anything. As Jin Shi Que said, even though his current realm wasn't high, if he continued to grow, he would eventually become a great scourge for the Hong Hao Heavenly Court. It was a pity that she had still failed to dissuade Lu Xia Tian on this trip, and there was no way to turn back now. It was a shame that Mu Xia's experience in Jiu Yang City came to an end like this.
"The Heavenly Court of the Honghao does indeed have people who can deal with me, but you and these celestial armies are not among them. Since you've come, just stay." Lu Xia Tian smiled calmly.
Just as Jin Shique was about to boast arrogantly, the silver-leafed Bodhi trees around them suddenly began to rotate slowly. The celestial army on the flanks erupted in a cacophony of noise, and Lu Xiaottian's phantom vanished into thin air before their eyes.
"Bad, a feint attack!" Jin Shi Que's face changed, and he immediately looked at Han Chi Gongzhu and said, "The Buddhist formation here has indeed produced many incredible changes. Although Dong Fang Xia'er is arrogant, he is not entirely talking nonsense. Daoist Han Chi, you sit here to command the immortal army, I will go to other places to disrupt the formation."
"Alright." The Palace Master of Cold Chime Palace nodded. Though she didn't want to see Lu Xia Tian killed by the Heavenly Execution Palace's people, so many celestial armies, besides the direct elite forces of the Heavenly Execution Palace, also included many who were transferred from various fairy domains. If she just watched these celestial armies be destroyed, it wouldn't be her desire either. For the future power of the Cold Chime Palace's faction in Heaven Court, it would be quite detrimental. Even if the Palace Master of Cold Chime Palace had some sympathy for Lu Xia Tian's fate, she wouldn't do nothing within the celestial army.

Without receiving a reply from the master of Hánchī Palace, Jīn Shí’s figure flickered several times before swiftly dashing away within the fairy army's formation.
