Main text Chapter 486: The Great Array of Protecting the Realm

"Until you appeared, I had no hope."

"Originally... I thought you had fallen into the small world, but I didn't expect that you could come back alive."

His face was extremely solemn, Xu Yangyi also put away his attitude, and said in a deep voice: "Please ask the real person to clear up the confusion."

Master Yue's eyes swept across the scroll like fire. Finally, four words popped out from between my teeth.

"The holy war is coming."

"Boy, there is a huge secret hidden in this holy war... What is the holy war for? They are all sacred vessels of the Vatican! And you think... why can't they take away this sacred vessel? Why do you tolerate a glimpse of gold? The secret of the elixir is placed here? You know, this thing is definitely a national treasure to the outside world! And the Pope is one of the great Yuanyings known in the world."

"Because..." He took a deep breath: "This holy weapon... is stronger than him! Even more terrifying!"

"Swipe..." The scroll rolled up, and in the next second, Xu Yangyi was enveloped in white light, rushing towards Stratus at an incredible speed. In his ears, he could hear Master Yue's high-spirited laughter.

"Come... let's see the true face of this respected treasure."

"I hope you won't be shocked and stunned."

The wind of the night blew past my ears, and the speed of the golden elixir was so fast. In the blink of an eye, it had already exceeded the highest height that a foundation-building monk could break through.

Xu Yangyi frowned. Continuing to fly upward and rising above five thousand meters, it is the Gangfeng layer, which is what mortals understand as the atmosphere. Here, only Jindan Zhenren can break through. Once the foundation-building monks come here, they will only be blown away by the fierce wind.

No one knows what the Gangfeng is, but it has been recorded in ancient books that one cannot soar in the Gangfeng without reaching the golden elixir. Countless monks have also experimented and tried to continue climbing during the foundation building stage. Without exception, they all fell three thousand meters away.

As he was about to approach three thousand meters, the white light outside his body flourished. Continuing to rush upward, he even felt the sound of "ding-dong" outside the white light, as if he heard the sound of countless swords gliding across.

Four thousand meters, five thousand meters... The strong wind layer passed by in a flash. Xu Yangyi breathed a long sigh of relief. At least now, Master Yue didn't have any other thoughts about him.

However, Yue Zhenren's figure did not stop, but turned into a white light and rushed to a higher place.

Seven thousand meters...eight thousand meters...until nine thousand meters, he finally stopped.

He glanced at Xu Yangyi. At this moment, Xu Yangyi's face was pale, but he was biting his lips and remained silent. Even though the veins on his neck, temples and fists were already bulging.

"That's right." Master Yue smiled slightly: "I have not restrained the golden elixir spiritual pressure. No matter how good the protection is, there is still a trace of the power of the Gangfeng outside. Every thousand meters up, the Gangfeng becomes fiercer, here..."

He stepped on the void beneath his feet and said, "The wind has almost doubled compared to the level at 5,000 meters. Even with the protection of my spiritual energy, the monk who can survive is one in a million."

After saying that, he stopped talking and looked towards the sky quietly. Xu Yangyi meditated for a few seconds, and did not shy away from Master Yue. He took out a pill and drank it. It took ten minutes for a flush of blood to appear on his face.

Looking up, he was immediately surprised.

Below you can still vaguely see the outline of New York City, dimly lit, shining into a sea of ​​neon. However, there were thick layers of black clouds in the sky above. Like a tidal wave.

"Rumble..." A low muffled sound of thunder came from the clouds, and electric dragons and snakes appeared from time to time, green and white covered by black clouds. Those black clouds seemed to have spirituality, they were rolling continuously, and they were like a chasm, cutting off the earth and the sky.

"Have you ever thought about it. Three thousand meters above is the Gangfeng layer. What is above the Gangfeng layer?" After a long time, Master Yue finally spoke.

Xu Yangyi adjusted his breathing for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Is there something else above the Gangfeng layer?"

Master Yue did not answer, but a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth. After a few seconds, he patted his head lightly, and stared into the void with a golden spear. It was made of pure gold, with thousands of snakes coiled on it, two dragons united, and a rune reflected in the surrounding area. The golden light is brilliant.

"You should be lucky." He waved his hand gently, and a golden aura loomed like a waterfall in front of him: "Don't talk about building the foundation... In the early stage of the Golden Core, you can't see such a scene."

"Protect yourself. I don't want my daughter to become a widow before she gets married."

After saying this, his whole body's spiritual power exploded!

"Swish, swish..." The surrounding clouds were pushed away bit by bit. Xu Yangyi suddenly felt that he was in the huge waves of the Yangtze River. He instinctively wanted to steady his body, but like fallen leaves in the strong wind, he was about to be washed away in an instant. Several hundred meters out.

"This is...the late stage of Golden Core!"

"Zhenren Yue turned out to be a late-stage Golden Elixir! Even among the top ten recorded Golden Elixirs, he still ranks in the top five! He...hid his cultivation last time!"

Before he could finish his thoughts, his waist suddenly tightened, and a red rope flew over and wrapped around his waist, stabilizing him like a kite above thousands of meters of black clouds.

In the distance, Zhenren Yue's body was half-crouched, like a tiger or a dragon. The infinite golden aura made him become the sun in the dark clouds. His robes all over him were puffing up without the wind, and his hair stood on end. The muscles in the hand holding the spear swelled, and the clothes were torn apart.

"One ride is worth a thousand!!"

Following his roar, a golden light was like a dragon emerging from the sea, illuminating the entire space.

"Boom!" Tiny golden lightning lingered above the golden light, and with a crisp dragon roar, the golden light shot straight up a thousand meters, breaking through the clouds and opening the moon. With a loud "buzz buzz buzz", the black cloud that the golden light had sunk into actually began to stir slowly.

Xu Yangyi took a deep breath. This was the power of a real person.

It was not an empty statement that he could overturn the rivers and seas at any time.

A rare sense of awe surged in his heart. He respected the power of the golden elixir, and also respected them for overcoming all difficulties to get to this point.

"Swish swish swish..." After a few seconds, the black cloud broke open a hundred-meter crack. Master Yue shouted softly: "Go!" Then, he pulled Xu Yangyi straight into the crack.

"Whoosh swish swish!" Above nine thousand meters, Xu Yangyi already felt the sword and the weapon approaching him, and his skin cracked inch by inch. He dared not think of anything else, and all his spiritual energy was running. He closed his eyes and tried his best to resist the strong wind that was weakened several times.

"Swoosh!"

Just like Sun Wukong jumping into the sky, a white light suddenly jumped into the clouds. At this moment, Xu Yangyi suddenly felt... all the strong winds outside his body disappeared!

"This is..." He opened his eyes in astonishment, and what he saw was a scene he would never forget.

He wiped the blood from the cuts all over his body, and looked at everything in front of him in shock.

The black clouds were right under his feet. However, above his head, it was daytime. The warm sunlight penetrated through the cotton-like clouds. There was no strong wind.

The rolling black clouds below were like the Yangtze River, surging non-stop, separating the night and day into two worlds. However, this was not what shocked him.

What shocked him was... above the white clouds above his head, a series of golden talismans covered the sky and the earth! Forming an endless golden grid... No, these golden colors were also mixed with black, red, and various colors. This huge talisman grid wrapped the entire earth!

And in the east not far away, a brilliant purple air, like waves, set off a huge wave of tens of thousands of meters in the sky!

Kunlun is far from the Yellow River to the west, and the purple air is high in Hangu Pass to the east.

And under their feet, there is a holy golden light, which also breaks through the sky, and is also tens of thousands of meters, with faint holy chants lingering.

He also saw a piece of black air, in which there was a huge Vajra, whose height and size were unknown.

"What on earth is this?" Even if he was determined, he couldn't help but sigh at this moment. Everything in front of him was too beyond imagination. No one would have thought that there would be such a scene at 10,000 meters on the earth.

"This is the Great Guardian Array." Master Yue sighed: "It is unknown how many hundreds or even thousands of years old. It is still running today."

"The purple air coming from the east is the cultivation world of China, the black Vajra is India, and the golden holy light is Europe and the United States... These great cultivation countries have the national destiny as the foundation, and together they have forged this Great Guardian Array."

He pointed to a place: "Look there."

Xu Yangyi looked at the sun, and at the end of his eyes, in the visible center of the formation, there was actually... a sword!

No, it's called a sword, but it's broken, with only the hilt.

But... it's this hilt, he just touched it slightly, and he felt that his spiritual consciousness was almost annihilated.

And in each area that seemed to be the center, there was a similar magic weapon. Above Europe and America, there was a dry branch. There were still a few green leaves on the branch.

Master Yue pointed to the sky calmly, and Xu Yangyi looked up, but saw that tens of thousands of meters above, there was something on these broken magic weapons, which was emitting a brilliant light.

It has no spiritual pressure, no majesty, but it reigns at the top of all magic weapons. The tip of the entire earth.

"That place... I'm afraid only Yuanying Zhenjun can go there." Master Yue's eyes radiated infinite heat, and he murmured: "That... is the boundary anchor of the earth."

"Boundary anchor?" Xu Yangyi hesitated. He had heard of this thing in the small world.

"That's right. Even though the Earth is a world, it is also a realm. As a realm, there are great formations and boundary anchors to protect the realm. However..." He took a deep breath and retracted his gaze: "There is not just one boundary anchor in the world, but it is determined according to the Taoist traditions of the great monks who have appeared in this realm. These are called secondary boundary anchors. There are a total of ten secondary boundary anchors on Earth. They... are not magic treasures, nor are they spiritual treasures, but... something beyond spiritual treasures. Even if I am a real person, if I try to get close, I will be instantly reduced to ashes."

Xu Yangyi nodded deeply. What he saw tonight was really beyond his imagination.

"But, have you discovered?" Master Yue sneered, "All the secondary boundary anchors are damaged."

"That sword, if I'm not mistaken, is the legendary Xuanyuan Sword. It suppresses the destiny of China. It's more powerful than a dragon vein. If someone can destroy it, China will be destroyed. But such a person will never exist."

Xu Yangyi said, "Then may I ask Master, why is it damaged?"

"This is also what I can't figure out." Master Yue shook his head, "There should be nothing on Earth that can damage it. And all the secondary boundary anchors are damaged. This... we speculate that this is the real reason why the Earth has entered the Dharma Ending Age."
