Chapter 4228 Don't Play Dirty Tactics
The Eastern Emperor Bell also has double protection inside. I set up a magic array using the Five Elements Command Flags, and there is also a barrier built by Chi Lang using the Star Banner. The outermost layer of the Eastern Emperor Bell can defend against everything else, but it cannot defend against this Heavenly Tribulation Remnant Lightning.
The rumbling sounds outside were incessant, and purple lightning bolts were darting around inside the Eastern Emperor Bell, making us tremble with fear.
At this moment, the slovenly Taoist priest suddenly looked at me and said, "Old Wu, do you think it would work if you used the Five Elements Flags to set up a magic array and then used the Star Banner to protect yourself when you were undergoing tribulation?"
"I doubt it will work. I have to bear the Heavenly Tribulation no matter what. If I use external forces to shield myself from the damage, the Heavenly Lightning will only come more fiercely. I might even have to undergo a second tribulation. What's meant to come will eventually come. There's no escaping it." I felt very unhappy just thinking about it.
Why is everyone else perfectly fine while I have to suffer such a calamity? I really don't know what sins I committed in my past life or what heavenly law I violated.
We squatted inside the Eastern Emperor Bell and waited for a while longer. The lingering thunder of the heavenly tribulation gradually subsided, emitting a rumbling sound, like the low growl of a wild beast, before falling silent.
The moment the thunder stopped, I told the slovenly Taoist to quickly raise the Eastern Emperor Bell. I glanced around and locked onto the location of the array's core again. Then, everyone followed behind me and quickly moved towards that core.
The next killing move is Soul Devouring Heart. I don't need to worry about this move at all. The Eastern Emperor Bell is one of the Ten Great Divine Artifacts. It has many runes that restrain spirits. As long as those ghosts dare to get close to the Eastern Emperor Bell, they may be immediately annihilated. Moreover, no matter how many come, they will be gone.
We quickly arrived at the next key point of the formation, and I immediately took out my entrenching tool and began digging rapidly.
Because I was worried that, just like last time, as soon as it was dug out, the talisman in the eye of the formation would move to another place.
I dug a pit more than half a meter deep again, and soon a pool of clear water appeared. This time I was smarter. I immediately took out the Shengxie Sword, activated the power of ice, and froze the pool of water. Then I handed it to the slovenly Taoist priest to burn.
The lump of ice instantly turned into a cloud of water vapor and disappeared without a trace.
At this point, the second array core has been destroyed.
However, after this key point of the formation was destroyed, many mournful ghostly howls suddenly came from outside.
Although none of us have left the Eastern Emperor Bell, I know that the seventh killing move of this magic array has already begun to activate.
The Eastern Emperor Bell seemed to sense the situation outside, and suddenly it shone brightly with golden light, and runes flashed.
Then, a mournful ghostly wail was heard coming from outside the Eastern Emperor Bell, and then it stopped abruptly.
I think it must be that the countless ghosts outside, like moths to a flame, kept crashing into the Eastern Emperor Bell, while the Eastern Emperor Bell, with its own powerful strength, made those ghosts that rushed towards it turn to ashes one by one.
Those ghosts were unconsciously controlled by the magic array. Thousands of wronged souls and fierce spirits who died in battle wailed endlessly. The runes on the Eastern Emperor Bell were golden and I had never seen the runes on the Eastern Emperor Bell so powerful.
If we were outside the Eastern Emperor Bell at this moment, attacked by these countless ghosts, we would have no chance to fight back; our souls would be torn to pieces.
Just like man-eating ants, one or two are not scary, but if millions of them come, even an elephant can be eaten to dust.
We waited a while longer, and the mournful screams gradually subsided.
At this moment, the disheveled Taoist priest said thoughtfully, "Old Wu, the Blood Prison Seven Kill Formation has already used all seven killing moves. We've been trapped inside the Eastern Emperor Bell for several hours now, haven't we?"
“That’s right, several hours have passed, but the magic array won’t stop. These seven killing moves will keep going and will wear us down here,” I said seriously.
“This magic array didn’t do anything to us, so Huo Qingfeng definitely has other tricks up his sleeve. I think he’s lost patience and might use a different method to deal with us next. We need to be mentally prepared,” the slovenly Taoist priest said again.
"We're inside the Eastern Emperor Bell, and they can't get in. How can they deal with us?" Little Fatty was very curious.
"How would I know? Huo Qingfeng definitely knows I have the Eastern Emperor Bell. I think he'll definitely come up with a way to deal with it." The slovenly Taoist priest said with some worry.
"Is this old man going to throw poop on the Eastern Emperor Bell and make it stop working?" Little Fatty suddenly said.
Little Fatty's words sent shivers down our spines.
Yes, we can think of it, and Huo Qingfeng must have thought of it too. This guy wouldn't be that despicable, would he?
"Although the Eastern Emperor Bell is afraid of filth, it won't cause any major damage. To disable the Eastern Emperor Bell, at least dozens of urinals would have to be poured on it at the same time..." the slovenly Taoist priest whispered.
"Stop talking, it won't be good if that old man hears us, maybe he really didn't expect this..." Brother Gu looked terrified.
“If anyone comes and throws excrement or urine, we’ll do what we did last time: wait for them to get close, then go out and deal with them. When the magic array is activated, those people definitely won’t dare to stay here, because it will kill them all…” I suggested.
As we were talking about this, the mournful screams outside completely stopped.
At this moment, Huo Qingfeng's voice came from outside the Eastern Emperor Bell: "I really didn't expect that you could hold on until now and not be wiped out by the Blood Prison Seven Kill Formation. However, you won't live much longer, because next... there are even more powerful methods waiting for you."
"Huo Qingfeng, if you've got the guts, stop playing dirty tricks and show me what you're made of! Fight me for three hundred rounds!" the slovenly Taoist priest shouted outside.
"I possess profound magical skills, why would I fight you? That's the act of a brute. You can just wait to die, hahaha..." Huo Qingfeng laughed loudly, his voice fading into the distance.
A moment later, I heard footsteps outside the Eastern Emperor Bell again. Soon after, a piercing flute melody rang out. The sound seemed to have a magical power, making me feel somewhat unsettled.
"What's all this noise? Why is Huo Qingfeng playing a tune? It's so awful!" the slovenly Taoist priest asked curiously.
"Something's not right with this flute music, everyone be careful..." Just as these words were spoken, the sound of the flute playing outside became louder and more piercing.
Listening to the sound of the flute, I felt a surge of unease and my mind conjured up countless images of killing and bloodshed. Even my breathing became heavy.
