Chapter 369 Breaking the Formation with Formation
"Did you hear what that kid said?"
Before the array plate, Tang Xuenian frowned slightly and looked at the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder rolled his eyes: "Nonsense, with the true energy blocking it, how could I possibly hear it? But judging from his lip movements, it seems he's praising our formation as magnificent and solid?"
Tang Xuenian's brows relaxed: "It seems this kid has a good eye. Indeed, opening ten trapping formations at once is too much of a bully for a young person."
Then why don't you just remove the trapping formation...?
The people behind him fell silent once again.
At this moment, the Grand Elder suddenly looked at him strangely: "Look! This kid went to the left, he's fallen into a trap! The left side seems to be the first escape route in the trap, but this is a trap within a trap. The so-called escape route is actually a dead end!"
Everyone immediately perked up, after all, they were all members of the Tang family, and they certainly hoped that the Tang family's formation would give outsiders a taste of their power.
Everyone stared intently at the huge array plate, which clearly displayed Ye Kang's movements under the powerful control of the Divine Sea Realm martial artist.
He took a step to the left, stepping into the first life gate of the trap. Just as he was about to fall into the trap, he suddenly took a step to the right, then circulated his true energy and struck forward with his palm.
With a loud bang, the gate to life was blasted away by a single palm strike, and the first trapping formation was completely cut off from all hope of survival.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What is he doing? Is he kidding me?
"Could it be that they intend to break the formation by force? That's too arrogant! The Tang family's trapping formation can even trap a Grandmaster!"
"Gentlemen, let's just leave it at that. It's really disgraceful to bully the younger generation."
The elderly men shook their heads, looking disappointed.
However, Tang Xuenian and the Grand Elder continued to stare intently at Ye Kang.
Just now, when that palm strike shattered the Gate of Life, it seems that this kid produced something strange!
With a flick of his fingers, Ye Kang sent dozens of strands of Moon-Entwining Heavenly Silk shimmering faintly. The spider silk pierced through the first layer and fell into the second layer of the trapping array the instant the array gate was shattered.
Ye Kang's nascent divine sense attached itself to it, and the Entangling Moon Heavenly Silk outlined ancient symbols in the air, which then automatically combined within the second layer.
Tang Xuenian's expression changed drastically: "Could he be setting up an array!?"
"How is this possible! What kind of formation is this?!"
The elder held his breath, a hint of shock suddenly appearing in his eyes.
Ye Kang, on the other hand, used the Entangling Moon Heavenly Silk to continuously combine into array bases. With the support of the nascent divine sense, true energy and spider silk replaced the array plate, transforming into a completely new array on the spot.
This is a new technique that Ye Kang gained through enlightenment. He uses the Moon-Entangling Heavenly Silk as material to draw an array out of thin air.
Although he could only draw some simple formations with a small scope, this seemingly spontaneous act was enough to leave others speechless.
With a thought, Ye Kang suddenly pressed the new array formed by the Moon-Entwining Heavenly Silk backward, directly merging into the first layer of the trapping array. Immediately afterward, the light of the trapping array reversed, and countless spiritual energies leaked out.
An ancient formation, a reverse formation.
The existing formation is released in reverse, breaking the formation and activating the formation's core at the same time.
This was originally a method to break a killing formation, but Ye Kang used it to break a trapping formation, and it had a surprising effect on breaking a formation within a formation.
As the first layer of the trapping formation was activated in reverse, a great path gradually appeared, which was the true gate of life. Ye Kang and the Carp God calmly walked across that path.
Under the impact of the first layer of trapping formation, the remaining trapping formations also began to release in the opposite direction. Once they reversed, the gate of life was exposed.
Ye Kang didn't need any extra tricks; he could simply follow this broad road forward.
The Tang family members were all stunned in front of the array.
Their proud formation within a formation was broken in a single second by a young man!
Now that the gates are open, that guy can simply follow the path of survival and pass through all the traps.
"Absolutely not!"
The Grand Elder suddenly gritted her teeth, then waved her hand, controlling the array plate with her true energy, causing it to rotate continuously.
They didn't intervene at all; they just watched Ye Kang break the formation.
But don't forget, truly powerful formations are constantly being adjusted by formation masters.
The Grand Elder is now a formation master. With her control, the reverse formation became ineffective, all the trapping formations rose again and began to change positions, narrowing the range.
The gates to life were completely blocked, and the number of trapping formations increased from ten to eighteen!
Ye Kang glanced at the sudden change and felt a headache coming on.
Although the knowledge of Xuanmen Formation is abundant, it is still an ancient formation. Compared with modern formations that have been developed for so long, there are some parts that really don't match up.
Even though he was an expert in formations, he was somewhat lost at this moment.
Fortunately, he had a cheat code.
Ye Kang looked at the Carp God: "Please, Carp God, show me the way."
The carp god thought for a moment, then suddenly pointed to the right: "The carp god thinks it's better to go that way."
There was no reason, just intuition.
Ye Kang smiled and activated the Entangling Moon Silk, sending a formation-breaking talisman into the right side.
The methods for breaking formations recorded in the Xuanmen Formation Explanation are numerous. One method is to break a formation with another, and another is to paralyze the formation's core with talismans.
Sure enough, Ye Kang didn't know if the right side was the key point of the formation, but as soon as the talisman was thrown in, the trapping formation immediately became ineffective.
"Thank you, Carp God. Please continue to guide me."
"The carp god is hungry."
"After we get out, we'll give the carp god some good food."
"The carp god wants to leave from this side."
Ye Kang walked in the direction indicated by the Carp God, his spider silk weaving into clusters of talismans, which he then blasted straight into the target.
Another formation has failed.
"hiss……"
A chorus of gasps filled the air.
The Tang family members all had dark faces, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Tang Xuenian kept shaking her head: "This doesn't make sense, this shouldn't be happening. Could there really be a genius in formations?"
He didn't understand. He knew that although they hadn't used any killing or illusion formations, they had simply created so many trapping formations, which were stacked and combined to form a formation within a formation.
This level of complexity would take even a master like Zheng Hong half a day to figure out.
But this kid in front of me broke through the formation in a flash! He seemed completely at ease, without the slightest hesitation!
And their incredible methods of breaking the formation were simply unheard of.
In just a quarter of an hour, Ye Kang had already broken through thirteen layers of trapping formations!
Tang Xuenian and the Grand Elder were all ashen-faced. They did not try to control the formation again, because that would be too much of a bully.
Having probed this far, there is no doubt that Ye Kang is a genius of formations, and his formation skills have surpassed most of the younger generation of the Tang family.
The key now is whether this kid can break through all the trapping formations.
If he can really do that, the martial artists of the Tang family might truly have their Dao hearts shattered.
Everyone watched nervously, and just after the thirteenth layer of the trapping formation was broken, Ye Kang suddenly stopped, scratched his head and cheeks for a while, and then cupped his hands towards the sky.
"I am Wang Yintai. I have already experienced the profound mystery of the Tang family's formation. I have tried my best, but I can no longer move forward. I beg the senior of the Tang family to be merciful and let me go."
