Chapter 550: 264. Double Top Lucky Draws! (Two-in-One Chapter)_4

Chu Yu was a master of the Eight-layered Heaven Archery lineage, wielding both the Divine Edge and Expansion powers, and this arrow he shot possessed an unrivaled, overwhelming might.

The vortex that intended to devour the arrow of light was itself torn apart, unable to pose any threat to the arrow; instead, as the vortex splintered, it ripped away all the magical prohibition concealing Green Stone Island.

Lei Jun looked from afar, and instantly, the scene on the island changed dramatically.

There were, in fact, not many people on Green Stone Island.

*Even if this was just a fake ancestral altar, this sea region was the forbidden of all forbiddens within the Yellow Sky Sect; for the sake of security, the fewer who knew, the better.*

Still, among the forests on the island, one could see altar after altar towering high into the air, all of them lighting up in unison at that moment.

Although inferior to the ancestral altar in might, each of these altars was arranged with utmost care by the members of the Yellow Sky Sect.

At a glance, before and behind the island, there were a total of thirty-six three-tiered Dharma altars, completing the numbers of four times nine, all shining with light, joining together to shake the heavens above. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Though it was still daytime, the sky above Green Stone Island had actually darkened, as if turning from day to night.

And the starlight in that night sky appeared even brighter than before.

The few people on Green Stone Island were now all performing true-morning and star-adoration rites one after another.

Thus, under the glow of starlight from the night sky, the thirty-six Dharma altars on the island, fulfilling the number of Heavenly Gang, at that moment linked into a formation, blocking anyone who tried to approach Green Stone Island.

And at the very center of Green Stone Island, beneath the volcano’s mouth, stood an extraordinarily unique three-tiered Dharma altar, now flickering with a faint glow—its light not so dazzling, yet it was protected at the core by the outer formation.

Shangguan Sheng and the other officers of the Divine Strategy Army advanced onto the island, faces unmoved.

Elder Miaoyi of Tianlong Temple led several monks of Tianlong Temple in the Middle Three Heavens realm, and at this time, they, along with Lei Jun, also strode forward, rushing toward Green Stone Island.

With them, a shaft of arrow that had once pierced straight ahead now finally changed trajectory, slanting upward into the sky.

This stream of light arched up, trailing a long tail like a comet, then, overtaking all who went before, crashed down upon Green Stone Island.

In an instant, one three-tiered Dharma altar on the island was blasted apart with a thunderous roar.

The arrow pierced through the altar and crashed into the ground, immediately leaving a huge crater; in the flying dust, one could see the dark green stone beneath—true to the name Green Stone Island.

The destruction of a single three-tiered Dharma altar was not simply the collapse of one part of the formation, nor just the loss of one thirty-sixth of the spiritual power.

Rather, it meant the total number of altars no longer completed the Heavenly Gang count; from perfection it fell to imperfection, and the formation quickly broke apart.

Fortunately, the Yellow Sky Sect had backup altars, which now lit up with spirit light to restore the count and reinstate the defensive prohibition.

But although Chu Yu’s arrow speed had slowed, not a single shot missed its mark.

Each arrow struck a Dharma altar on the island without fail.

At the same time, each forcibly breached the formation’s defense, tearing open a massive rift in the opponents’ complete barrier, shattering the altars laid by the Yellow Sky Sect.

One arrow, one altar.

As if calling their names one by one.

Chu Yu did not advance, only used his keen observation and mighty arrows to give remote support to Shangguan Sheng, Lei Jun, Elder Miaoyi, and the others at the forefront, all the while guarding against the leader, Taoist Taiping, suddenly appearing.

Though new backup altars lit up on the island, their number was after all limited and could not withstand Chu Yu’s relentless targeting.

Shangguan Sheng, Lei Jun, Elder Miaoyi and the others also set foot on the island in quick succession.

After landing, they too began to destroy those Dharma altars where true-morning and star-adoration rites were performed, shining beneath the starlit sky.

In this way, the backup altars of the Yellow Sky Sect were soon exhausted as well.

And as the Heavenly Gang count was once again incomplete, the island’s defensive prohibition instantly began to collapse.

*For secrecy’s sake, the Yellow Sky Sect had relied mainly on years of built-up prohibitions and formations to guard the island, rather than manpower.*

But Lei Jun and the others broke through each and every one of them.

Lei Jun, for the moment, made no additional moves; a host of talismans spun and whirled about him like stars, constructing together his Doumu Star God Dharma—their style in battle nearly identical to that of martial Taoist expert Shangguan Sheng.

Closing in fast, engaging in close combat, each punch and kick seemed to pack the might to split mountains and cut rivers.

*Who could say about the others, but presently, Shangguan Sheng still held back some strength and could spare a bit of attention to watch Lei Jun.*

Cultivators of the Talisman Sect practiced life skills and inherited Taoist martial arts; in close-quarter combat, their prowess was widely recognized.

But even more famed to the world were martial arts practitioners taking that aspect to its peak.

For example, the Taoist Dan Ding Sect, the Zen Martial lineage of the Buddhist Sect, the Taoist Talisman Scriptures, or even the Wu Men Xue He or the Confucian Scripture Studies—all potentially possessed formidable close-combat abilities.

Yet that aspect simply could not match the undisputed specialists, especially in teleportation speed, where martial arts practitioners overall always reigned supreme.

But as Shangguan Sheng watched Lei Jun’s attacks, he realized that Lei Jun’s every move seemed no weaker than his own as a bona fide martial Tao expert.

*A Destiny Star God of the Celestial Master Mansion, by itself, should never demonstrate this kind of swift teleportation and agile movement technique...* Shangguan Sheng was lost in thought.

*It appeared that after advancing his lifebound magic art, Lei Jun now possessed unique strengths in this area as well.*

While Shangguan Sheng observed Lei Jun, Elder Miaoyi of Tianlong Temple likewise kept his eyes on him.

He, however, was not slow either; pressing his palms together, he chanted the scripture,

"The Lion, Bold and Swift, Manifests All the Deeds of the Tathagata."

As Buddha-light surged and gathered, it formed a massive lion with a blue face and protruding fangs, fierce in appearance, yet exuding a sense of Zen amidst its mountain-like might.

The lion roared, causing even Green Stone Island itself to seem to quake.

Among Taoists, those possessing the Law of Heaven and Earth were known as dharma;

Within the Buddhist Sect, such things were called dharma appearance.
