Chapter 5535: The True Assimilation Formation
Brother Chu Feng, are you fine?
Upon seeing Qi Weidaos retreat, Long Chengyu quickly descended from the sky to head over to Chu Fengs side, wanting to feed a pill to him.
Brother Chengyu, take everyone and this formation away from this place first, Chu Feng said.
All right.
Without any hesitation, Long Chengyu carried the formation together with Chu Feng and the others away from the formation core, though he didnt go too far away. At the same time, Feng Jiuyue constructed a concealment formation around them out of fear that Qi Weidao would pursue them.
Shortly after they left, the formation core opened. A figure quickly dashed inQi Weidao.
Damn it! That fellow got it for free!
Both the Totem Dragon Clansmen and Totem Phoenix Clansmen felt indignance swelling in their hearts, especially when they saw Qi Weidaos avatar armor visibly fusing into his body under the effects of the formation core. They felt awful knowing that they had missed a precious fortuitous encounter.
Haha! Chu Feng and Long Chengyu, you have lost this battle! Do you know why you have lost? The two of you werent vicious enough. I was already at my limit. I was forcing myself to hold on. You only had to persevere a moment longer, and I would have been defeated. However, its too late now. You have lost your chance. This land has granted me immeasurable power. If you dare come close to this formation core, even if its Long Chengyu with the formations enhancement, Id still be able to easily decimate you! Qi Weidao spouted those words while laughing arrogantly.
Hah! He was still talking about sharing the formation core with us a moment ago, but hes finally showing his true colors now. That despicable thing!
The Totem Dragon Clansmen and Totem Phoenix Clansmen were infuriated.
Ignore him. He wont live for long, Chu Feng suddenly said.
The crowd turned their attention to Chu Feng, only to see that his eyes were focused on a compass he held in his hand. The compass had opened up, and his hand was swiftly adjusting the inside of it.
Young hero Chu Feng, what do you mean by that? one of the confused Totem Dragon Clansmen asked.
Shut up! Long Chengyu roared. Dont interrupt Chu Feng.
He knew that Chu Feng must have noticed something and was at a crucial phase of preparing something. It would be foolish to interrupt Chu Feng at this juncture.
Kacha!
Chu Feng suddenly stopped moving.
The compass released a faint light as it slowly took form. It was no longer as chaotic as it was before. Two doors could be vaguely seen inside the compass, but there seemed to be a protective formation shrouding the two doors.
Its fine now, Brother Chengyu. We have won, Chu Feng replied.
Brother Chu Feng, did you manage to decipher the compass?
Mmhm, Chu Feng replied with a nod. I could have put my full strength into channeling the formation. The worst that could happen was me passing out for a moment. In other words, you had a shot at killing Qi Weidao. Yet, I asked you to retreat instead. Do you want to know why?
Why? Long Chengyu asked.
That formation core is a trap. This entire realm is a trap. You could receive some benefits from entering the formation core, but youll quickly lose your life there, Chu Feng said.
Ah? Thats a trap? The crowd was horrified.
Yes, this entire realm is a trap. We have been treated as tributes from the very start. The completion of the formation will temper your bloodlines, but the purpose is to refine your bloodlines to the peak before devouring your energies. I dont know if the Demon Crane is truly an assimilation formation or not, but this is definitely an assimilation formation, Chu Feng said.
This!
But...
The Totem Dragon Clansmen and Totem Phoenix Clansmen found this hard to believe.
Young master, whats going on? Is young hero Chu Feng speaking the truth? Why did our clan chief send us here if thats the case? The Totem Dragon Clansmen turned to Long Chengyu for answers.
Long Chengyu was conflicted as to whether he should tell them the truth.
Brother Chengyu, theres no reason to keep it a secret anymore at this juncture, Chu Feng said.
That darned Seven Realms Sacred Mansion! Long Chengyu cursed before turning to the Totem Dragon Clansmen to explain the matter. We came here under the request of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansions Mansion Master. Its unlikely that my father knew that the Totem Phoenix Clan and the Blood-eyed Qilin Clan would be here too. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansions Mansion Master has taken us for a ride!
Long Chengyu then turned to Feng Jiuyue and asked, Feng Jiuyue, there should be no reason for you to hide it anymore, right? Tell us the truth. Is your Totem Phoenix Clan collaborating with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion? Also, were you aware that the Blood-eyed Qilin Clan was still around before this?
Feng Jiuyue had a hesitant look on her face.
Big sister, theres no need to hide it anymore now that things have come to this point, Feng Tiansheng said. He turned to Long Chengyu and answered the latters questions, Yes, our Totem Phoenix Clan has been working with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. The place where our clan has gone into seclusion was provided by the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. However, we didnt know that the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was cooperating with the Blood-eyed Qilin Clan or that we were leaping to our doom by coming here. I dont think my father is aware of this. We have all been deceived by the Seven Realms Sacred Mansions Mansion Master. He told us to cherish this opportunity, and that hell help our clan rise once more. What a load of bull!
Feng Tiansheng clenched his fists tightly in anger. The Totem Phoenix Clansmen also hurled vulgarities as well, upset that they had been taken as fools. Unlike the Totem Dragon Clansmen, they were aware that they had come here at the Seven Realms Sacred Mansions request. After all, they had been working with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion all this while.
Unlike the agitated Feng Tiansheng and the others, Feng Jiuyue was much calmer. She turned to Chu Feng and asked, Chu Feng, could there be a mistake? Is this... an assimilation formation?
She was still reluctant to believe the truth.
Theres no mistake about it. Look at Qi Weidao. His complexion has changed. Chu Feng turned his eyes toward the formation core.
The crowd did the same as well.
They noticed that Qi Weidaos arrogant expression had vanished without a trace. He was looking around in a fluster. Moments later, his face warped in pain, scrunching tighter with each passing second.
GAH! What the hell is this? What the hell is this?!
As soon as Qi Weidao realized that something was amiss, he tried to escape the formation core, but he was unable to get away no matter how he struggled. It was as if he had been held down by some invisible force.
