King of Creation-Chapter 738 - 728: Ingenious Design

"Damn it, what is going on here? An illusion?" Inside the Spiritual Power Warehouse, Ye Zhen was waving his hands through the air, seized by an urge to drag the creator of this illusion from the Beast Taming Sect over and beat them senseless!

Fortunately, he had used Earth Escape to enter directly; if he had struggled for nearly a month to break into this Spiritual Power Warehouse, he would have been livid enough to cough up blood!

Nothing but emptiness!

The Spiritual Power Warehouse was completely empty!

From outside the Spiritual Power Warehouse, it looked filled with High Grade Spirit Crystals, utterly dazzling to the eyes.

But once he entered, just a meter away, all was barren!

Refusing to believe it, Ye Zhen entered the warehouse on the right, which also appeared to be full of High Grade Spirit Crystals, and then he completely lost his temper!

Still empty!

"Illusions, all illusions! Old guys from the Beast Taming Sect, you better crawl out of the ground, I swear I won’t beat you to death!" Ye Zhen roared, swinging his fists in anger.

Two warehouses, packed with what seemed to be High Grade Spirit Crystals, he had thought he was about to hit the jackpot, only to find they were all illusions; it was utterly frustrating.

First immense joy and anticipation, then utter disappointment!

Luckily, Ye Zhen had Earth Escape; otherwise, after toiling for a month to discover this, he would really have vomited blood!

After taking several deep breaths, Ye Zhen finally dispersed the pent-up frustration in his chest and abdomen, swept through the grand hall one last time, and prepared to leave.

This grand hall, aside from the two illusion-filled Spiritual Power Warehouses, had nothing else of interest, not to mention treasures, although the corpse of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet was a find!

With a thought of his Divine Sense, Ye Zhen’s body entered the ground to leave, pondering where to find the Formation Control Central Hall as he did.

The moment half of his body was submerged, Ye Zhen’s descending figure suddenly halted, and he leaped back up to the grand hall.

Something was not right!

This grand hall definitely had a problem!

It was not only equipped with a Divine Sense Isolating Formation but also guarded by a Long-Armed Fire Monkey King Puppet, and yet it only contained two warehouses filled with High Grade Spirit Crystal illusions. Absolutely abnormal!

The treasures Ye Zhen had previously encountered, whether the Departure Fire Alchemy Furnace or those Demon Cores, were all guarded by the puppet.

A grand hall with both puppet guardians and a Divine Sense Isolating Formation surely was of utmost importance.

Like the Beast Spirit Hall, Plant Beast Hall, and Snake Breeding Hall, although the latter two had little to offer, any hall with a Divine Sense Isolating Formation was crucial!

But this particular grand hall, not even named, with nothing but two warehouses full of illusions, was suspicious!

Moreover, Ye Zhen keenly noticed that the Guardian Light Screen outside the Spiritual Power Warehouse was exceptionally robust, its strength comparable to the Beast Spirit Hall’s walls, densely packed with mysteriously powerful, defensive Talisman Patterns.

However, the Beast Spirit Hall contained the True Body of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, a Five Elements Melt Blood Pill, and the Beast Taming Sect’s Inherited Secret Tome, with similar defenses. So what was in this unnamed hall?

Besides the illusion of High Grade Spirit Crystals, nothing else!

And yet, such a powerful Guardian Light Screen for just an illusion of High Grade Spirit Crystals? That didn’t make sense!

Ye Zhen felt that these two warehouses, seemingly full of High Grade Spirit Crystal illusions, were deliberately designed to distract intruders.

"A disguise, the existence of this Spiritual Power Warehouse must be disguising something!" Ye Zhen decided in an instant!

Its purpose was clearly to completely attract intruders’ attention to it, making them attack the Guardian Light Screen without holding back.

With the strength of this Guardian Light Screen, it could likely delay intruders for some time, enough for the Beast Taming Sect to react, if it hadn’t already perished.

Such a painstakingly elaborate scheme, what was it concealing?

Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense and gaze swept through every corner of the grand hall like a comb!

A few moments later, Ye Zhen’s gaze and Divine Sense abruptly settled on the warehouse on the left, which appeared empty from the outside!

Three Spiritual Power Warehouses, two adorned with illusions of High Grade Spirit Crystals and one clearly empty—definitely not worth noticing!

"Clever plot, good design! No wonder the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King called those from the Beast Taming Sect old tricksters, their methods are indeed extraordinary...."

This wasn’t just Ye Zhen talking nonsense.

Thinking through the situation from the beginning laid bare the terror of the design!

If a Martial Artist who couldn’t use Earth Escape had barged in, upon entering, their gaze would have been captivated by the warehouse with the High Grade Spirit Crystal illusion, leading them to attack frantically. Even if their Cultivation and Combat Power were greater than Ye Zhen’s, it would probably take them ten days to half a month to break through this Spiritual Power Warehouse!

After expending tremendous effort and half a month to break into the Spiritual Power Warehouse, they would suddenly discover it was empty, only an illusion!

By then, even if that Martial Artist didn’t vomit blood, they would likely be furious to the extreme!

And, as human greed knows no bounds, disbelieving the reality, that intruder would surely attack the other warehouse full of High Grade Spirit Crystals!

Another half a month later, they would find it was empty too!

This time, it was impossible not to cough up blood!

In a state of extreme anger, one would definitely overlook this third Spiritual Power Warehouse, which was completely empty.

The design was incredibly deceitful, truly brilliant!

Therefore, this third Spiritual Power Warehouse, seemingly empty at first glance, was actually the key element this grand hall was designed to protect and conceal!

"I believe the Formation Control Central Hall is most likely right here!"

With a thought of Divine Sense, Ye Zhen’s figure suddenly dove into the ground, moved forward about two to three meters below the surface, and then rose again.

"As expected...."

In an instant, Ye Zhen’s gaze became stunned!

The Spiritual Power Warehouse, which appeared empty from the outside, revealed an entirely different universe once entered.

The extremely dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi proved that there was at least one High Grade Spirit Crystal here, a crucial node.

Glittering and intertwined, the formation lines were extremely complex and flashed with various colors, and various colored and shaped Formation Flags were casually adorned among the Formation Talismans. In that moment, Ye Zhen felt as if he had entered a pure world of formations.

But after the shock, Ye Zhen was dumbfounded!

Because he didn’t understand formations at all!

Not that he didn’t understand them completely, just a little bit. Faced with such an enormous formation that combined more than seven colors, Ye Zhen felt dizzy at a glance!

He couldn’t make any sense of the various formation lines, Formation Flags, and Formation Talismans right in front of him.

Not understanding was one thing, but destroying was sometimes very simple!

He directly condensed a massive spark of Spiritual Power and continuously moved across the important nodes of this large formation that spread over ten miles, uprooting each Formation Flag and directly collecting the randomly adorned Formation Talismans.

In an instant, the layers of formation light in the Formation Control Central Hall dimmed by over ninety percent, with only a pathway where red and black lights merged still pulsating.

Most importantly, there were no longer any Formation Flags or Formation Talisman nodes inside the Formation Control Central Hall. Even if Ye Zhen wanted to destroy them, he had no way to do so!

As for directly destroying the formation lines, Ye Zhen didn’t dare!

The formation lines seemed to directly channel and trigger the Power of Earth Vein. If he were to blast them directly, the Power of Earth Vein would burst out in an instant. The Earth Vein here was a High Grade Spirit Vein, and its power could likely turn Ye Zhen into ashes.

Moreover, the formation lines exuded faint traces of Divine Soul suppression scents. Ye Zhen guessed that this was either a Divine Sense isolation formation or a control formation for the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King.

If it were the former, so be it. If it were the latter, Ye Zhen really wasn’t ready to make a move, because the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten was still in the hands of the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King.

Ah, Ye Zhen’s eyes suddenly blinked!

In the last layer of the formation where the red and black lights converged, a rather large ink-black Jade Talisman was faintly visible, with red and black lights continuously converging within it.

This Jade Talisman itself was extremely dark, and under the cover of black light, if one did not observe for a long time, it really was hard to detect!

Picking up the Jade Talisman, Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly changed, and he let out a slight exclamation, "Eh, what’s inside this ink-black Jade Talisman?"

.....

Just when Ye Zhen had removed all the Formation Flags and Formation Talismans within the Formation Control Central Hall, the Guardian Light Screens and the seals on every hall door surrounding the entire Ten Thousand Beast Hall Group flickered at once.

After flashing five or six times, all the Guardian Light Screens and seals disappeared at the same time!

In an instant, the Ten Thousand Beast Hall Group, which had been impenetrable, and whose doors had to be broken to pass through, suddenly became a clear path!

"Eh? The formations have failed, who did this? Could it be the Grand Hall Master?" Lan Shuiqiao, who was extremely frustrated from attacking the seal of a hall door, suddenly paused.

"No matter who it was, it’s good news. Now, I definitely can’t fall behind. The task assigned by our ancestors might just be achievable!" Almost simultaneously, Lan Shuiqiao pushed open the door and entered, passing a faint blue light through the hall in front before swiftly disappearing, vanishing in an instant as a Talisman Light soared into the sky.

Meanwhile, Hu Qingtong, still trapped in the northern group of halls, saw the sudden disappearance of the hall door seals before her and was also stunned!

"The formation has been broken, who did this?"

The image of Ye Zhen suddenly appeared in Hu Qingtong’s mind, "The only one capable of this must be him, he really is....."

Before he could finish his sentence, a Talisman Light fell into Hu Qingtong’s hand. Glancing at it, Hu Qingtong’s figure moved and she instantly disappeared.

At the entrance of the Beast Spirit Hall, Yangh Yiguan, holding a golden Jade Talisman, formed sword techniques with his finger, his eyes glaring fiercely as he rapidly embedded one Divine Soul Restriction after another into the golden Jade Talisman before him.

Roar!

Inside the Beast Spirit Hall, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, clutching his head with both hands, burst into a red light several meters high. Almost every time Yangh Yiguan embedded a Divine Soul Restriction, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King curled up, emitting an extremely miserable scream!

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, who stood tall and imposing like a Heavenly God, was now in front of Yangh Yiguan’s golden Jade Talisman, looking no different from a dog!

"Eh, the Guardian Light Screen has disappeared, someone has broken the formation?"

The sudden disappearance of the Guardian Light Screen caused Yangh Yiguan’s face to change drastically, "This is bad, I need to speed up!" Saying this, Yangh Yiguan fiercely bit his tongue, and a mouthful of Life-bound Spiritual Blood containing an extremely thick Spiritual Power aroma sprayed wildly onto the golden Jade Talisman!(To be continued.
