Chapter 2362: Unsolvable Situation
Ximen Jiayin and Qian Wuji were naturally unwilling to admit defeat so easily. The two of them joined forces again, attacking three times in a row, but still made no progress.
"Now you've seen how powerful my Dark Night Demon Formation is, haven't you? It's useless. Just wait to collect the bodies of those Old things from Tianlong Temple.
No, I misspoke. They won't even leave bodies. You just need to burn some paper money, hahahaha…"
From within the black mist, that person let out another bout of unrestrained maniacal laughter. It was clear that everyone's helplessness brought him extreme satisfaction.
Ximen Jiayin and the other person were also filled with helplessness. Since a direct assault was ineffective, they could only retreat to the side and think of other methods.
Everyone looked to the two of them for leadership, and their gazes converged in an instant.
"Everyone, don't worry. It's just a Formation, isn't it? If a direct assault doesn't work, we can still break it!"
Qian Wuji said, "Everyone knows Yuan Tiancheng, the Fifth Elder of my Wuliang Temple, who is known as the number one Formation Grandmaster in Tianqiong State.
I had already contacted him before I came, and he should be arriving soon."
"Really? Great Master Yuan is coming! If he comes, Tianlong Temple will be saved. He will definitely be able to break this Formation…"
"I heard Great Master Yuan is the number one Formation Grandmaster in Tianqiong State. There's no Formation he can't break."
"It seems Wuliang Temple is still the most powerful. To save Tianlong Temple, we can only rely on Great Master Yuan…"
The crowd discussed animatedly. Ye Bufan remained standing to the side, observing coldly, having clearly seen through the Dark Night Demon Formation.
It must be said that this Formation is of a very high Rank. Although it cannot compare to ancient Rank Formations like the Hongmeng Celestial Killing Array, it is still very rare.
The most formidable aspect of the Formation lies in its ability to devour Devilish Qi. It can devour both physical attacks and energy.
In this situation, even if you find the Formation core, you cannot penetrate the Devilish Qi to break it.
If it were anyone else, breaking this great Formation would be incredibly difficult, but for him, it was extremely simple.
As long as he used the Demon Refining Bottle in his hand to completely absorb the Devilish Qi, breaking the Formation would be an easy matter.
But in front of so many powerful Cultivators, he dared not expose that he possessed such a treasure.
Not to mention that he had already formed an irreconcilable enmity with Wuliang Temple, even Ximen Jiayin could not be fully trusted.
For Cultivators, nothing is more important than profit. Killing people and seizing treasures is a simple matter.
Conscience and morality mean nothing; it just depends on whether the temptation is great enough.
For this reason, although he had saved Ximen Jiayin's life, he dared not expose too many secrets.
Since the other party said a Formation Great Grandmaster was coming, he was not in a hurry to act. If someone else could break the Formation, that would be even better.
And at this moment, several more figures sped from a distance, instantly landing in front of everyone.
The leader of these people was a Cultivator at the Void Tempering Peak, with a fair face and long beard, looking somewhat like a refined Middle-Aged Scholar.
"Great Master Yuan is here!
Great Master Yuan is here!"
A commotion arose in the crowd. Someone recognized this Middle-Aged Scholar as Yuan Tiancheng, the Fifth Elder of Wuliang Temple, the most renowned Formation Great Grandmaster in Tianqiong State.
Currently, the people from Wuliang Temple were searching for the four missing Elders outside and were not together, so they arrived separately.
"Fifth Elder, you've come at just the right time. See if this Formation can be broken."
To display Wuliang Temple's strength, Qian Wuji eagerly pulled Yuan Tiancheng to the front of the Dark Night Demon Formation.
"Don't rush, let me examine it!"
After Yuan Tiancheng finished speaking, he began to examine the Formation in front of him, sometimes leaping into the air, sometimes looking at the ground, and finally taking out a compass to deduce, appearing quite like a Formation Great Grandmaster.
When he was almost done, he returned to the crowd. Qian Wuji asked eagerly, "How is it? Is there a way to break it?"
As he finished speaking, everyone's gaze swept over. Great Master Yuan had now become their last hope.
But in the end, they were disappointed. Yuan Tiancheng merely shook his head: "This Formation is very powerful. If it were just this, we could slowly find a way to break it.
The most troublesome thing is the Devilish Qi it releases. Our Divine Sense cannot penetrate it at all, and our Physical Body is even more unable to enter.
In this situation, let alone finding the location of the Formation core, we can't even discover any flaws."
Ximen Jiayin asked, "Elder Yuan means this Formation cannot be broken?"
"That's right, this is an unsolvable situation."
Yuan Tiancheng nodded, "This Old thing can guarantee that no one in the entire Tianqiong State can break this Formation."
"This…"
His words were almost the final verdict. Everyone showed expressions of disappointment.
Even the number one Formation Great Master in Tianqiong State had no solution, which virtually pronounced Tianlong Temple's death sentence.
Monk Faxiang looked even more desperate, putting his palms together and uttering a Buddhist chant.
"It is the incompetence of us, the Disciples of this generation, who have shamed the deceased Seniors of the Sect. If it were a hundred years ago, how could this small Demonic Formation have troubled my Tianlong Temple?"
Ye Bufan was hesitating whether to bring out the Demon Refining Bottle to break the Dark Night Demon Formation.
He wanted to use the Heavenly Secret Art to find the whereabouts of the five-colored mystic stone and Situ Dianmo, so he couldn't let Monk Xuwu die like this.
But if he used the Demon Refining Bottle so casually, it would also bring him endless trouble.
Just as he was indecisive, he heard Faxiang's words and immediately asked, "Great Master means that if the Great Masters of Tianlong Temple reach the Great Ascension Stage of Cultivation, this Formation can be broken immediately?"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would my Tianlong Temple have been the main force in sweeping away the Demonic Sects back then!
We only need a Mahayana stage Cultivator among our Buddhist Sect, even if it's just Early Stage Cultivation, to activate the Celestial Buddha Pagoda, and this Formation can be broken in an instant."
Everyone else also heard their conversation clearly and shook their heads. Even Ximen Jiayin and Qian Wuji gave up their last hope.
Monk Faxiang had stated clearly that to activate the Celestial Buddha Pagoda, one not only needed to reach the Mahayana Rank of Cultivation but also had to Cultivate Tianlong Temple's Buddhist Cultivation Technique.
This was almost impossible. If Tianlong Temple had a Mahayana stage Cultivator, it wouldn't have fallen from being an eight-star Sect.
Ximen Jiayin said somewhat unwillingly, "Great Master Yuan, can't you think of any other way?"
Yuan Tiancheng shook his head, pointing to his own head: "This Old thing has been studying Formations for so many years, I can guarantee with my head that this Formation is a dead end and simply cannot be broken."
As he said this, the people around became even more desperate. And just then, a voice rang out: "I can give it a try."
Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that the speaker was the Young man behind Ximen Jiayin.
Qian Wuji also looked over. He hadn't paid attention before, but now, upon seeing the other person's appearance, his expression suddenly changed.
"Boy, are you Ye Bufan?"
