#189 - The Nine-bend Yellow River Zhenlong

Chapter 188: Nine Bends Yellow River Formation Suppresses True Dragons (Zhong Xiang is a woman)

The Nine Bends Yellow River Formation is now a Tier 2 formation, capable of covering 360 meters. However, its deployment speed is somewhat slow, taking a full ten breaths. If both sides were engaged in a battle, that would be enough time for the opponent to run back and forth one hundred and eighty times.

Zhong Xiang gazed at the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, which exuded an 'eerie wind and chilling air that invaded the senses, with black fog engulfing and obscuring the sun and moon. It was vast and boundless, silent and dark. A dismal aura soared into the sky, and a gloomy haze permeated the earth.' She couldn't help but shiver, a sense of inexplicable terror welling up in her heart. Her spirit seemed to be stolen by its power, trembling incessantly.

"That is…" Zhong Xiang knew that her Qilin Heart had sensed the danger, constantly and frantically warning her of the formation's peril. The formation before her already threatened her life. An intuition came from her Qilin Heart that recklessly barging in would lead to death.

"It looks intimidating, but I wonder about its actual power." Zhong Xiang was being stubborn, her heart filled with extreme fear, yet unwilling to admit defeat. Instead, she questioned with a mocking tone, feeling that Zhang Chen's methods were merely for show.

Zhang Chen smiled upon hearing this, not arguing with Zhong Xiang, but rather saying with a smile, "You will naturally know how powerful it is later."

After speaking, Zhang Chen gestured to Zhong Xiang, indicating for her to stand in front of the bronze door. At the same time, water vapor shimmered in his hand, and an ice blade slowly materialized.

Seeing Zhang Chen conjure the ice blade, Zhong Xiang felt a pain in her buttocks, instinctively tightening her legs: "I say, can you not always stare at my butt? Can't you choose another spot?"

"Choose another spot? Where to?" Zhang Chen smiled, looking her up and down, his eyes filled with a strange expression.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Zhong Xiang sighed helplessly, turning her head and standing in front of the bronze door, then closing her eyes and making a gesture of resignation: "Come on! Let the storm rage on!"

Zhang Chen came behind Zhong Xiang and patted her butt. Zhong Xiang suddenly opened her eyes, turning her head to glare at Zhang Chen, but dared not speak her anger.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen smiled strangely, not wanting to provoke Zhong Xiang, lest this kid become uncooperative. So, in the next moment, ice gathered, encasing Zhang Chen, and then the ice blade in Zhang Chen's hand directly pierced into Zhong Xiang's butt.

Flames burst out, and Zhang Chen turned and ran. Although he was wrapped in bulky ice, his escape speed was not slow, because the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation covered the entire cave, so Zhang Chen rushed into the formation in three steps.

Flames burned around Zhong Xiang, constantly scorching the bronze door. The bronze door began to turn red again, showing signs of melting.

"Woo-ooh!" Nine True Dragons at the Yang God Realm directly emerged from the bronze door, slashing towards Zhong Xiang. Alarmed, Zhong Xiang turned and ran without a word. Zhong Xiang was a martial artist, much faster than Zhang Chen, and with a few flashes, she had already jumped into the formation, then shouted at the top of her lungs, "I've already lured out the True Dragons, the rest is up to you."

While shouting, she sized up the formation before her, trying to discern some clues, lest she be clueless when dealing with it in the future.

However, Zhong Xiang lost her way as soon as she entered the formation. Black fog filled her vision, accompanied by overwhelming yellow sand. It was as if she had stepped into another world with a single stride. How could she see any flaws? She couldn't even see through the black fog in front of her. It was as if she were standing in the dark night, unable to see anything beyond three feet.

Zhang Chen looked at Zhong Xiang, of course knowing Zhong Xiang's little thoughts, but if the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation could be seen through with the naked eye, what would be the use of this formation?

The nine True Dragons roared and followed closely behind Zhong Xiang. As soon as they entered the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, Zhang Chen quickly activated the power of the formation. The sky was filled with yellow sand, drifting with the black fog. Countless grains of yellow sand struck the nine True Dragons. No matter how the nine True Dragons flew up and down, left and right, they could not escape the yellow sand's embrace. In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the nine True Dragons had lost all their spiritual light and turned into nine dull metal sculptures, half their bodies buried in the yellow sand, completely losing any spirituality.

"My Nine Bends Yellow River Formation aims to eliminate one's cultivation, it really doesn't have the power to kill people. But after having one's cultivation eliminated and one's spirituality wiped out, what difference is there between them and broken copper and scrap metal?" Seeing that the nine True Dragons had been resolved, Zhang Chen looked at Zhong Xiang, who was standing wide-eyed in the black fog, strenuously scanning the formation's secrets, but unable to find any flaws.

Just as she was stunned, a hand stretched out from the black fog and patted her back, suppressing the divine power within Zhong Xiang's body once again.

"I say, can you not be so cautious?" Zhong Xiang was somewhat speechless, she was impressed by this old schemer.

"How are the nine True Dragons?" Zhong Xiang asked.

"I have already subdued them." As Zhang Chen spoke, he retracted the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, and the nine copper lumps fell to the ground, clanging against the bluestone.

Zhong Xiang stared straight at the nine copper lumps, then turned her head to look at Zhang Chen with a terrified expression, her eyes filled with fear.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen smiled and patted Zhong Xiang's butt smugly: "Scared you?"

Zhong Xiang was now immune to Zhang Chen's butt-patting. Hearing Zhang Chen's words, her eyes were filled with complexity: "What kind of method is this?"

This world doesn't even have talismans, let alone talisman formations, so of course she hasn't seen it.

"Don't inquire too much about adults' affairs, quickly come and melt the copper door, I want to see what creation is inside this copper door." Zhang Chen tugged at Zhong Xiang, water vapor directly condensing into an ice blade, urging impatiently.

"Can you be a little gentler when you strike? Actually, you only need to pierce my skin, there's no need to stab so deep." Zhong Xiang's voice was somewhat aggrieved, and she negotiated helplessly.

"Is that so?" Zhang Chen's expression was surprised upon hearing this, and the ice blade in his hand was directly shortened to one centimeter, saying to Zhong Xiang: "Will this do?"

Hearing this, Zhong Xiang sighed and obediently turned her back to Zhang Chen, saying: "Come on."

Zhang Chen wrapped himself in ice, and in the next moment, the ice blade in his hand stabbed in again without mercy.

Then flames erupted around Zhong Xiang, continuing to burn towards the bronze door.

As the bronze door was scorched, the entire bronze door began to turn fiery red again. At this moment, black and white light suddenly intertwined on the bronze, and before the two could react, Zhong Xiang had been cut in half at the waist, turning into magma that splattered all over the ground.

Then the black and white light intertwined and returned to the bronze door again.

"Damn! What was that black and white light again?" Zhang Chen was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Fortunately, the black and white light did not continue to attack. If the black and white light continued to kill, Zhang Chen was afraid that he would also be trapped like Zhong Xiang.

The lava on the ground began to converge, and Zhang Chen, holding the immobilization talisman, brazenly approached again.

"Kid, you're dead! I will never give you another chance this time!" Zhong Xiang's icy voice came from within the lava. Then, a stream of fire circulated, protecting Zhong Xiang. In the next moment, Zhong Xiang was successfully reborn, transforming into his original appearance, staring at Zhang Chen with a face full of ice.

"How do you want to die?" Zhong Xiang gritted his teeth, his tooth-bone clattering.

"I think this is all a misunderstanding! Why don't we just resolve all grievances here? Revenge only leads to more revenge!" Zhang Chen's voice was full of bitterness.

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding my ass! You actually dared to defile me, I must castrate you!" The flames around Zhong Xiang's body fluctuated constantly with his angry emotions.

"It seems I have no way out today?" Zhang Chen said with a wry smile.

"You can wish you were dead," Zhong Xiang said coldly.

Zhang Chen looked at the freed Zhong Xiang, seeing the flames surrounding him, giving himself no chance. He suddenly sighed, put away the talisman in his hand, and said, "It seems I've finally crashed. I'll let you kill me, I have no complaints, I only hope you can spare my family."

Zhong Xiang shot out flames from his hand, directly hitting Zhang Chen and sending him flying, crashing into the stone wall. The bones in his body cracked, and he didn't know how many ribs were broken.

Seeing that he had truly subdued Zhang Chen, Zhong Xiang restrained the flames around his body and stood tall, looking at Zhang Chen: "Kid, I'm going to light you up like a sky lantern, I'm going to squeeze out your corpse oil, and slowly grind you to death."

Now that Zhang Chen had been seriously injured by him, he naturally didn't need to protect his body with flames anymore.

But as soon as Zhong Xiang restrained the flames, his body stiffened in place, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes: "Impossible!"

He was sealed by the town talisman again.

This time, the fox fairy Nannan took action, and the moment the opponent retracted the flames, she directly stuck the town talisman on him.

At this time, Zhong Xiang was dumbfounded, not knowing where he went wrong. That kid was clearly in front of him, how could he stick the town talisman on him?

Unfortunately, the fox fairy Nannan's realm was much higher than his, and he couldn't see the fox fairy Nannan's trace at all.

"You kid is quite ruthless, you even want to flay me and light me up like a sky lantern? Fortunately, I have a trick, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to crash," Zhang Chen's crystal core vibrated wildly, and a mysterious power flowed, constantly repairing his body. In less than thirty breaths, the injuries in his body had been completely restored, and then he jumped up from the ground, full of energy.

"How did you seal me again? This is impossible, I didn't even see you take action," Zhong Xiang's voice was full of disbelief, his whole mentality collapsed, and his voice began to tremble. Thinking of his previous arrogance, he could completely imagine how he would be ravaged and tortured by this pervert if he fell into his hands.

Zhang Chen slowly walked towards Zhong Xiang, Zhong Xiang retreated step by step, his eyes filled with despair: "Don't come over! Don't come over!"

Zhong Xiang's voice was full of fear, but facing Zhang Chen's step-by-step approach, he was finally forced into a corner, and then the power of ice surged, and Zhong Xiang was frozen again.

"Little brother, what do you think I should do with you this time?" Zhang Chen approached with a lewd smile, and a pair of hands directly landed on Zhong Xiang's buttocks, pulling up the radish and slowly kneading it.

"Don't do this! We can cooperate! Let's write off all our previous grievances, okay?" Zhong Xiang's voice was trembling, looking at Zhang Chen with a pleading expression.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I still like your unruly appearance. Didn't you say before that there's no way to turn hostility into friendship? Isn't there no way to resolve grievances?" Zhang Chen stuck out his tongue, enduring the nausea, and licked Zhong Xiang's fair face hard.

After licking, Zhang Chen wanted to vomit, but looking at Zhong Xiang's expression of wishing he were dead, he felt that his nausea was nothing, Zhong Xiang must be more nauseous than him.

Zhong Xiang has an immortal body, and physical damage can't cause him any harm at all. Only mental blows can make this kid know how powerful he is.

"Zhang Chen, let's end our grievances here, I was just joking with you, I still want to explore the tomb with you, how could I light you up like a sky lantern?" Zhong Xiang kept begging, his voice full of surrender.

Hearing Zhong Xiang's words, Zhang Chen smiled triumphantly, reached out and stroked Zhong Xiang's white radish, pinching it gently: "If you follow me, we'll become bosom buddies, so you'll have me in you and I'll have you in me, then I'll believe your words."

Zhong Xiang's face was full of horror, his smile froze on his face, and he said with a bitter face: "Brother Zhang, as long as you let me go, with my power, when we get to the outside world, women and men will be at your disposal, why do you have to stare at me?"

"Because you're fragrant!" Zhang Chen said with a lewd smile, feeling extremely disgusted in his heart.

Zhong Xiang's face was horrified, his eyes were full of panic, his eyes stared at Zhang Chen, his heart was extremely bitter.

"Brother Zhong, think about it carefully, are you going to actively cooperate with me, or am I going to forcefully rape you? Now that you're in my hands, it seems that even if you don't cooperate with me, I can achieve my wish," Zhang Chen smiled lewdly, looking as wretched as possible.

Knowing that he could hardly escape today, Zhong Xiang closed his eyes directly, and two lines of clear tears slid down his eyes again: "If you ruin me, don't let me escape, otherwise we will really never die."

"Look at what you're saying, it's as if you can let me go after you escape," Zhang Chen patted Zhong Xiang's buttocks: "I'll give you an hour to consider, if you don't actively cooperate with me after an hour, I'm going to forcefully rape you."

After saying that, Zhang Chen came to the bronze door, his eyes looked at the bronze door in front of him, and fell into a state of contemplation.

"It's difficult! What is the origin of the black and white light?"

If he didn't understand the mechanism on the door, he wouldn't dare to act rashly again.

However, the existence of the door mechanism was also within Zhang Chen's expectations, after all, this was the tomb of the Emperor's Daughter, and the door was of course the most important thing.

"The dream memories about the tomb of the Emperor's Daughter do not contain the scene in front of me, I only roughly know that 'Emperor' built the tomb of the Emperor's Daughter, and know the layout of the tomb," Zhang Chen muttered to himself: "There is no information to refer to outside, if I want to find information, I can only go to that mysterious ape tribe."
