Dragon-Marked War God

Jiang Chen did not hold back either. He also took a step forward, blocked the way in front of Wude, and said coldly,

“If you don’t want to get out, go ahead and kill him.”

Jiang Chen knew that they must have been trapped in this stone formation of armless men too, and could not find a way out for the time being.

The two of them stared at each other, both their eyes revealing coldness, neither giving an inch.

“Enough, Baichi. He is Jiang Chen, the benefactor who saved our Fossil Sect’s group in the Desolate Divine Land.”

Tantai Jingzang said indifferently.

A faint smile appeared on the blue-robed young man’s cold face. The killing intent in his eyes was withdrawn, and he said with a smile,

“So it’s my Fossil Sect’s benefactor. It really is a case of not knowing each other until we fought. A pleasure to meet you. Baichi Huayu!”

Jiang Chen’s expression was calm. He had already guessed he was Baichi Huayu. His strength was quite good. Although he had not reached the Divine Emperor Realm, Jiang Chen had to admit that with this talent and fighting power, even he would find it somewhat hard to defeat him. The geniuses of the great sects of the Central Region Divine Land really did think themselves above everyone.

“Jiang Chen!”

Jiang Chen nodded slightly and said nothing more.

“You were trapped here too, weren’t you? This stone formation really is a bit strange. Even with this poor Daoist’s experience, I couldn’t find the exit in a short time. I’m truly ashamed. This poor Daoist doesn’t dare say he’s the most powerful formation grandmaster in the entire Central Region Divine Land, but my reputation is widely known and quite remarkable. When it comes to the strength of formations, I’m afraid you couldn’t find even one hand’s worth of people in the Central Region Divine Land who surpass this poor Daoist.”

Wude said with a serious face, looking very calm and composed. He glanced at Jiang Chen. In reality, he was probably panicking terribly inside.

Jiang Chen could not help sighing inwardly. This old Daoist really did care about his feathers. Forcing himself to show off was the most fatal thing of all. Now he could not find the way out, and he still wanted to show off in front of others.

“Then by Master’s estimate, how much longer until we can get out of here?”

Tantai Jingzang asked in a low voice. Since Jiang Chen had just stood in front of Wude and protected him, even Tantai Jingzang had come to completely trust Wude, and her heart was full of hope in him. After all, they had been trapped here for several months already and still had not found the way out.

At the same time, there were several other sects in the same situation, all trapped in this stone formation. No matter how great their strength was, it was hard to break this formation. So in the end they had given up on the idea of breaking it by force and switched to a roundabout approach, slowly looking for flaws in the formation. But none of them was a true formation grandmaster. They had not found a way out at all, and in the end they had even become completely separated.

“I can’t guarantee that either. I’ll do my best. Maybe ten days, maybe ten years, maybe a hundred years, there’s no telling. It will depend on our fortune.”

Wude said calmly, with a very profound air.

“I hope you’re not lying to us. Otherwise, I’ll send you down to the eighteenth level of hell first to have a look.”

Baichi Huayu said with a cold laugh. At this moment, they had grabbed onto a lifesaving straw, but they had no idea at all when they would be able to get out.

Jiang Chen glanced at Baichi Huayu. This guy was full of pride, with eyes set above the top of his head. It looked like he was not a lamp that saved oil either.

“If not for Sun Xiaolong, I wouldn’t have come here this time.”

Jiang Chen said, making clear why he had come. At this point, Tantai Jingzang was even more at ease. At least this guy was not someone who broke faith and abandoned his friends. He was still worth trusting.

“So it’s that guy Sun Xiaolong. It looks like he really doesn’t know what’s good for him. Not just any cat or dog can come into this Five Directions Traveling Palace. Brother Jiang, would you say that’s right or not?”

Baichi Huayu said with a faint smile. He was clearly being sarcastic, pointing the spearhead straight at Jiang Chen. In his eyes, this guy Jiang Chen was very unpleasant. His appearance had even stirred up a trace of emotion in Tantai Jingzang, when normally she rarely showed the slightest emotional fluctuation. Whether that was good or bad, to him, this Jiang Chen was a guy he greatly disliked.

“Cats and dogs will definitely get trapped here. Only those who can get out are real heroes.”

Jiang Chen said, turning the sarcasm back on him. Baichi Huayu fell silent at once and only smiled slightly, but he had been choked speechless by Jiang Chen. The implication was: you’re not even as good as a cat or dog, so what right do you have to shout? If you have the ability, get out of this formation first.

“Master, I hope you will show us the way out.”

Tantai Jingzang said in a low voice.

“Master, this time the burden is heavy and the road is long for you. All our hopes and lives rest on you alone.”

Jiang Chen patted Wude on the shoulder and said with a smile. Only Wude knew what Jiang Chen meant. He smiled, nodded awkwardly and once again began studying this obscure, hard-to-understand formation.

Three days passed. Throughout the stone formation of armless men, something no one understood was happening. Terrifying tremors kept spreading out, and the surrounding stone pillars began to sway. As they swayed, they began to collide wildly. The pillars of armless men crashed into each other and were bounced away again. Thousands upon thousands of armless-man pillars moved like a chaotic dance of giant rocks.

“Rumble——”

“What’s going on? Didn’t you say it wouldn’t take long to break the formation?”

Baichi Huayu glared at Wude and said.

“When did I say that? I said it might be ten days, or it might be ten years. How would I know when the formation can be broken?”

Wude rolled his eyes and said with a disdainful look.

“Stinking Daoist, I think you’re tired of living!”

Baichi Huayu’s face was as dark as water. But at this moment, the surrounding stone pillars kept colliding, with enormous force. Even with their strength, they did not dare to be hit by these pillars. They darted forward and back, dodging left and right. But as the pillars collided more and more violently and faster and faster, everyone’s face changed drastically. The indestructible stone pillars were like giant clubs being swung by someone, constantly grinding out sparks and lightning. Danger lurked everywhere.

“I can’t, I can’t, this poor Daoist is scared to death.”

Wude kept screaming, but his speed was extremely fast, so fast that even Jiang Chen could not hope to keep up. At this moment, after a few twists and turns, Wude actually vanished from the three people’s sight. He had completely avoided the impact of the stone pillars, just as if strolling through his own courtyard.

Jiang Chen stared dumbfounded at Wude’s departing back, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He just ran off like that? This Wude really was… a dog that cannot stop eating sh*t. Jiang Chen had thought he would share their hardship and look for the formation’s exit together with them, but he had simply slipped away. Still, Jiang Chen knew he probably could not find the exit for the time being either. He just did not want to be smashed by these huge stone pillars.

Jiang Chen and the other two, without exception, were all struck by the giant rocks. After being hit again and again, each of them felt as if their whole body was about to burst. Jiang Chen was already fast enough, but darting left and right, he was still hit by several stone pillars in a row, and his injuries grew worse and worse. It was the same for everyone.
