Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 479 - 465 Arrival
A Formation that could serve as a Sect Protecting Level for top-tier sects!
And the Semi-Immortal Artifact, the Great Dao Golden Book, carried by Alkaid himself!?
This lineup...
Isn't this exactly the same as when Penglai Dao Lord joined forces with the Heavenly Dao Sect's Mountain Protection Array to slay the Abyssal Ruins Dao Lord?
Especially since, last time, it was only Penglai Dao Lord who took action, but this time...
Not only will Penglai Dao Lord arrive in a very short time, but Jun Tian Dao Lord and several Dao Lords on friendly terms with him will also quickly follow.
"Not good!"
With this thought, the Dao Lord made a split-second decision.
"Retreat!"
His figure seemed to become one with the Void as he attempted to permeate through and disappear from this Fifteenth Level Formation, vanishing within this expanse of the Void.
But...
The reason Alkaid chose the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation, a pure Binding Formation, was to trap Unforbidden Dao Lord for a sufficient amount of time.
As soon as he detected the Dao Lord's intent to leave, he pushed the Cave Heaven's power that bore the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation to its limits, and, under the resonance of the Eight Desolates Mirror, a Dao Artifact, the Great Void Path vibrated, stirring restlessness in the Void Pathways of this region.
The Unforbidden Dao Lord, who was attempting to use the Great Void Path to slip away, persisted for a moment only to be forcefully jolted from that special permeable, traversing state.
"This Formation..."
The Unforbidden Dao Lord immediately realized that the other party had been laying plans for a long time.
It seemed...
As if they had been making all the preparations, waiting for him to come.
It could be foreseen that the famed Penglai Dao Lord, hailed as the best in the Northern Sea, was definitely rushing in this direction at the fastest speed.
In such a situation, other than unleashing a thunderous offensive to shatter this Sect Protecting Array and defeat Alkaid, who presided over the Formation before him, he had no other choice.
"Golden Book Venerable, Alkaid, you are seeking your own deaths!"
Unforbidden Dao Lord roared lowly, as his body infused with the Great Dao suddenly lifted an arm, and above his head, visibly condensed Void Force, as if it transformed into a supreme Divine Sword that could easily slice through all celestial bodies.
"Sword Opens Heaven's Gate! One sword to break ten thousand realms!"
"Whiz!"
Almost at the moment the Unforbidden Dao Lord materialized this immensely powerful Sword of the Void, Alkaid's figure flickered and instantly appeared right before the Venerable, with You Long Sword moving deftly, driving the Void Force to consecutively unleash three Swords of the Void, slashing one after another towards his body.
The Sword of the Void, known as unbreakable, is the most powerful Dao Technique in the Void for offensive and formation-breaking purposes.
Amidst the amplification of the Time Torrent, the three Swords of the Void struck in unison, and even with a Superior Dao Artifact level Protective Battle Armor on the Unforbidden Dao Lord, he dared not take them head-on.
The huge Sword of the Void that he had initially condensed, soaring to the sky, was now forced to be maneuvered by him towards the three incoming Swords of the Void.
But just as he managed to dispel the three Swords of the Void, two more Swords of the Void followed closely behind.
The expression on Unforbidden Dao Lord's face did not change.
The gigantic Sword of the Void swept out again.
However, at this moment the power of the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation burst forth, and the Void seemed to turn into ripples, causing unprecedented "resistance," affecting even the behemoth that was the Sword of the Void.
By the time this gigantic sword shattered the two Swords of the Void fired by Alkaid, two more Swords of the Void immediately followed with their slashing attacks.
"This fast?"
Unforbidden Dao Lord sensed something amiss.
As the Sword of the Void continued to swing toward the other two Swords of the Void, he suddenly stretched out his hand towards Alkaid's position and grabbed forcefully.
This was the widely renowned Great Universe Hand in the Void Dao.
This Dao Technique, derived from the Great Void Path, caused space within hundreds of miles to quickly collapse, flowing and converging like water currents towards the palm of Unforbidden Dao Lord.
However, with the space greatly reinforced by the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation, Unforbidden Dao Lord's grasp couldn't constrict the space towards his palm immediately.
Seizing this opportunity, Alkaid employed Void Blink to extricate himself from that space, and then without a pause, two more Swords of the Void slashed down.
"You think you can escape?"
Unforbidden Dao Lord swung the colossal Sword of the Void, shattering two weaker, yet impossible-to-ignore Swords of the Void, and right after, once again reached out towards the Void where Alkaid resided.
But this time, as his hand reached towards the Void where Alkaid was, the power of the Sky Banishing Tower seeped out.
The might exhibited by this top-tier Dao Artifact quickly trapped the space where Alkaid was.
Even though Alkaid immediately deployed the Heaven-Sealing Stele, he still couldn't contend with this power.
However, just as his figure was about to be completely ensnared within Unforbidden Dao Lord's "Five Fingers Mountain," the power of the Two Realms Ruler burst forth.
Taking advantage of this, he once again utilized Void Blink to withdraw and, with no hesitation, slashed down another two Swords of the Void.
"Struggling in vain!"
Seeing that the Great Universe Hand was unable to prevail against Alkaid, the Unforbidden Dao Lord quickly changed tactics.
While using the Sky Banishing Tower to confine the space where Alkaid was, he pointed with his empty hand.
Heaven-Splitting Sword Finger!
This was a Dao Technique in the Void that was extremely adaptable and most suitable for striking the strong with the weak.
The power was not great, in no way comparable to the Sword of the Void or the Great Void Annihilation Technique, but it was swift to activate.
When a Dao Lord used it to point and destroy the Shattered Void, whether you were a mere Shattered Void cultivator or the top candidate of the Dao Lords, if it touched one, it killed one.
Just like now, as Unforbidden Dao Lord pointed, even Alkaid had a hard time reacting, and the space he was in was completely shattered by the power of the Heaven-Splitting Sword Finger.
The tumultuous Void storm, carrying terrifying distorting forces, was strangling Alkaid's body.
Such a force...
Would pulverize not just a Shattered Void Realm cultivator, but even a defensive Dao Artifact would be ground to dust in an instant.
However...
When such a terrifying force swept over Alkaid's body, it merely stirred up a ripple on the surface of his body, and then it swept past.
Alkaid even took advantage of the chaotic space currents ripping apart the Void constraints of the Sky Banishing Tower to activate the Two Realms Ruler and with another Void Blink, extricated himself, following up with two more swift Swords of the Void.
This scene finally changed the expression on the Dao Lord's face.
"How can this be!?"
His Dao technique had clearly hit Alkaid's body, but the result...
Seemed as if it hadn't inflicted any damage on him at all!?
This was illogical!
"Your body must have something that can immunize against damage... no, at best, an artifact that absorbs damage!"
The Unforbidden Dao Lord reacted extremely quickly, wielding the gigantic Sword of the Void in his hand, smashing apart the two swords of the void that Alkaid slashed out, while himself, the Sky Banishing Tower and the Heaven-Splitting Sword Finger were simultaneously directed at Alkaid.
However, with some preparation, Alkaid did not stay in one place.
After launching two swords of the void, he immediately used Void Blink to move.
In such a situation, even the Unforbidden Dao Lord, who wielded the Sky Banishing Tower, found it difficult to capture Alkaid for a time.
On the rare occasions he did catch him, he erupted with the power of the Two Realms Ruler and the Heaven-Sealing Stele at the fastest speed.
Under the restriction of the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation on both the Sky Banishing Tower and the Dao Lord's Great Void Path abilities, it became somewhat difficult to confine Alkaid.
On the rare occasion Alkaid was confined, suffering a strike from the Heaven-Splitting Sword Finger, he appeared completely unscathed.
Instead, taking advantage of the moment the Heaven-Splitting Sword Finger shattered the void, he swiftly withdrew.
Occasionally, when the Unforbidden Dao Lord wanted to stop the entanglement and leave, he was immediately confronted by the Sword of the Void that Alkaid slashed close to his face.
The Sword of the Void, propelled by the power of the threefold overlay of Great Void Path projections, was so sharp that not even the Unforbidden Dao Lord could resist with his body alone; he had to activate a sword capable of cleaving through the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation to shatter the Sword of the Void.
"This..."
"The Sect Leader actually withstood the onslaught from the Unforbidden Dao Lord!?"
This scene left Zhen Xuanyuan and Gu Li, the two Supreme Elders, dumbfounded.
Unlike the last time at the Heavenly Dao Sect's headquarters, this time, it was outside the Heavenly Dao Sect.
In such a circumstance, Alkaid was actually able to withstand an attack from a Dao Lord and even entangle him, making it hard for him to escape!?

Their battle...
Overall, of course, the Unforbidden Dao Lord had the upper hand.
But anyone could see that the Unforbidden Dao Lord, although having the upper hand, was temporarily unable to completely rid himself of his own Sect Leader, nor could he free his hands to crush this fifteenth-level formation.
Perhaps if they prolonged the battle, the Sect Leader, defending for an extended time, would inevitably fail and meet his doom, and the fifteenth-level formation would also be swiftly shattered by the Unforbidden Dao Lord who freed his hands.
Even at worst, with the foundation of a Dao Lord, it would be effortless to exhaust a Shattered Void to death.
But the problem was...
The Unforbidden Dao Lord was being reminded by the arrival of the Penglai Dao Lord, who was inevitably on his way, and the Jun Tian Dao Lord, who was about to reach the area, that he, the Unforbidden Dao Lord, had no time left.
"So... could it be that the Sect Leader might really hold out until Penglai Dao Lord arrives?"
Gu Li's Divine Sense became rigid and difficult to operate with the fluctuation.
Zhen Xuanyuan remained silent.
He scrutinized the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation, this fifteenth-level formation closely.
The formation, so coincidentally perfect in restraining the Unforbidden Dao Lord...
Could not help but give rise to an incredibly bold conjecture in his heart!
Their own Sect Leader...
Could it be that he had intentionally lured a Dao Lord to act, to reduce the difficulty of the human tribulations when later striving for Integrate Dao?
If it was true...
Zhen Xuanyuan, watching the two figures rapidly engaging in the void, couldn't help but shiver.
"That would be too crazy."
...
As time passed, the Unforbidden Dao Lord still couldn't take down Alkaid and became noticeably more anxious.
"Alkaid!"
He exclaimed in a low voice, "Open the formation and let me leave, we can talk, otherwise, next, I will take out my foundation particularly prepared for the battle for the Dao! Even if Penglai Dao Lord arrives quickly, it will still take at least the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. If I release my foundation, you definitely won't be able to withstand for that long!"
"How can I trust you? What if I open the formation and you reneged?"
Alkaid did not immediately reject.
"Would a Dao Lord lie to you, a mere Shattered Void?"
"Ha, Shattered Void or not, aren't you, a Dao Lord, still trying to put this Shattered Void to death?"
"You don't have many choices. You should know, as soon as you die, this formation will break, and by then even if Penglai arrives, they won't be able to keep me."
"One Penglai Dao Lord may not keep you, but what if Jun Tian Dao Lord and his company join? He is returning to the Northern Sea together with several Dao Lords."
"Jun Tian is not adept at speed movement techniques either, and as for the other Dao Lords traveling with him, they would not rashly offend another peer-level powerhouse for your sake..."
"That's not necessarily true, If you want me to open the formation and let you leave, you can leave the Sky Banishing Tower behind."
"Impossible! I cannot hand the Sky Banishing Tower over to you."
"Then at least you need to show your sincerity."
"My sincerity..."
The Unforbidden Dao Lord was about to say something, but then quickly realized something, "No, you are trying to buy time!"
This Dao Lord's eyes suddenly shot out a terrifying killing intent, "Dare to play tricks in front of me! You'll just miss this battle for the Dao! Since you've chosen your own death, I will oblige you! Today, even if Penglai himself arrives, it will not save you..."
"Really?"
At that moment, a cold voice suddenly came through.
Along with Alkaid coordinating to open a small entrance in the Ten Prisons Dragon Capturing Formation, a beautiful figure stepped into the void, appearing within the formation.
"I'd like to see if you really have that capability."
