A Chaotic World 216 Thousand Spirals Killing Formation

This was not a day with the best of weathers.

A light drizzle gave out light tapping sounds as raindrops continued to hit the withered grass on the ground.

Lu Tianzi frowned as he looked at the gloomy skies.

He might be feeling like he was in his element while under the rain, but it was also a fact that senses would be dulled in the rain.

If the rain got any heavier, then they might have to push back the plan.

Nevertheless, since they were already here, they had to at least try.

With a swipe of her spatial ring, Nanlan Qianxue brought out three full bags of fishes, placing them onto the ground.

This was the task given to her by Lu Tianzi – to go fishing.

'And to top it off, a big part of our contribution is comprised of fishes, supposedly the God of Pestilence's favourite food!'

The above was something that Ye had casually mentioned before, and anyone would have easily overlooked it.

But Lu Tianzi did not.

Instead, he took care to remember those words by heart, just in case a situation came where he could make use of this little fun fact in the future.

That proved to be a good decision on his end.

If Ye was right, then these fishes would make the perfect bait!

After placing two bags of fishes right in the middle of the clearing, Lu Tianzi took one bag with him and headed down the path of withered grass.

As he went on, Lu Tianzi dropped fishes at regular intervals, creating a trail of sorts.

Lu Tianzi's plans were obvious enough to anyone watching.

By doing this, Lu Tianzi was trying to lure out the God of Pestilence, so that they could meet at the clearing earlier where he had already made his preparations.

Now, it was just a matter of whether the God of Pestilence would willingly oblige!

Lu Tianzi carefully placed down the last fish in the bag, his eyes fixed straight ahead of him, at the shallow pit not too far ahead.

And from within the pit, a massive beast was sitting upright, its head facing Lu Tianzi's direction as well.

With no more than a hundred metres left between them, their eyes met.

Careful not to make any abrupt movements in such a tense situation, Lu Tianzi slowly straightened his body as he stood back up.

The God of Pestilence, however, did not have the same amount of patience. It immediately sprang to all fours, but remained in its pit as it continued to observe Lu Tianzi.

Grr-!

Lu Tianzi furrowed his brows when he heard the low growl coming from the God of Pestilence.

He slid backwards slowly, keeping his eyes trained on the beast.

For the next few moments, it felt as though everything was moving in slow motion.

Lu Tianzi backed off inch by inch, while the God of Pestilence started leaning forward, its eyes darting between Lu Tianzi and the fish on the ground.

And then, the situation erupted.

The God of Pestilence charged forth all of a sudden, heading straight for Lu Tianzi and completely ignoring the fish that he had just laid on the ground.

In response, Lu Tianzi turned and darted in the direction from which he had come.

Damn it!

Lu Tianzi cursed in his heart.

He had wrongly believed that the God of Pestilence would be at least slightly distracted by the trail of fishes, buying him the time to easily retreat to safety.

But now, it had suddenly become a race against time.

Would he be able to reach the clearing first, or would the God of Pestilence be able to catch up to him before that?

Lu Tianzi had always been confident in his movement technique.

If it was any other time, Lu Tianzi would certainly believe that he was able to outrun the God of Pestilence for sure, or at least maintain the distance between them.

However, the God of Pestilence actively emitted a foul aura that caused Lu Tianzi to feel weakened, making things no longer as straightforward.

But even so… he was still faster!

Lu Tianzi let out a confident smirk.

He did not have the luxury of turning around to look, but from the moment this chase started, his perception had always been locked onto the God of Pestilence.

Thus, he naturally was able to tell that he was actually steadily pulling away from the beast.

All right. Things might have become slightly more complicated, but at this rate, everything would still fall nicely into place.

Just as he was thinking that, an unfamiliar sound caused Lu Tianzi's smirk to freeze in place.

Flap-! Flap-!

Seeing that its prey was about to get away, the God of Pestilence had stretched out its wings, flapping them to gain a huge boost to its speed.

And with that, it had actually become even faster than Lu Tianzi!

Lu Tianzi felt the immense pressure of an Origin Core realm existence bearing down upon him from behind, and had no choice but to turn.

He spun around just in time to come face to face with an incoming swipe of its paw.

The Sword of Ivory Rock appeared in his hands and he slashed forward, planning to meet his opponent blow for blow.

Returning Wraith Sword.

Slash-!

Fresh blood spurted out as the Sword of Ivory Rock created a deep wound across the pads of the God of Pestilence, the thick fur of the beast unable to truly hinder the blade.

But Lu Tianzi had no time to feel happy about it.

His sword strike might have drawn blood, but it failed to stop the momentum of the oncoming swipe.

Watching as the huge paw of the God of Pestilence continued towards him, Lu Tianzi had no time to do anything else in response.

In such a short span of time, all he could do was only to summon forth his Essence energy to guard his body.

If anything, one thing good about fighting in the wilds like this was that he had no need to restrict himself to only his Slaughter Essence system.

Yet even with both cultivation systems combined, Lu Tianzi's Essence energy was still only barely enough to mitigate a small part of this powerful swipe.

Bang-!

That one strike sent Lu Tianzi flying through the air at least tens of metres away.

The sheer force behind the impact made it impossible for him to find his footing when he landed. Instead, his entire body slammed into the ground ungracefully and had to come to a rolling stop.

Roar-!

With its paw injured by a mere Essence Condensation realm martial artist, the God of Pestilence bellowed in rage.

Lu Tianzi quickly climbed to his feet, not daring to stay down for long.

With that one exchange, Lu Tianzi now had a much better gauge of the strength level of this God of Pestilence.

Pu-!

He spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes still fixed on the huge beast.

The impact had not only wounded him on the outside, but it had also broken quite a few bones in his body.

When facing this beast, what he had to worry about was not only the ridiculous physical strength and speed packed into that enormous body.

On top of that, there was also the immense pressure of an Origin Core realm existence, and the foul aura of decay that constantly weakened him.

And after that one exchange, Lu Tianzi realised that coming into direct contact with the God of Pestilence could be an extremely bad idea.

When he was struck by the God of Pestilence, Lu Tianzi could feel a wave of energy permeating into his body. This energy bore traits of decay, lingering within his body and sapping away his life force bit by bit.

This lingering energy was not so troublesome that he could not expel it given some time, but he doubted that the God of Pestilence would be willing to wait.

As if that was not enough, an ominous cracking sound suddenly came from his right hand.

Looking down, Lu Tianzi saw that the Sword of Ivory Rock was already filled with cracks. The moment he tried to raise the sword, everything fell apart like dominoes.

Piece after piece, the blade of the sword fell to the ground.

The sword had already been severely damaged during the fight against Chiren. Faced with the might of the God of Pestilence as well as the power of decay, what remained of the sword finally crumbled.

So this was as far as it went.

Lu Tianzi let out a deep sigh in resignation.

As he was right now, it was simply impossible for Lu Tianzi to defeat this monster with his own strength.

It was clear that when compared to Chiren, this God of Pestilence was stronger. Far, far stronger.

No wonder it was able to rule unchallenged in this land.

It was precisely due to this unparalleled strength that it could reign supreme!

With another loud roar, the God of Pestilence charged forth. As expected, it was not intending to give Lu Tianzi any time to recover.

However, Lu Tianzi was no longer worried.

That was because they had finally arrived at the clearing from before.

He took a quick glance at the two bags of fishes that lay silently on the ground behind him. In the end, there had been no need to go to all the trouble of preparing all of that.

He, himself, had been the perfect bait.

Lu Tianzi drove the Spiritual and Slaughter Essence in his inner world to the limit, channeling all that Essence energy into his fist before slamming it down into the ground.

This concentrated fist of Essence energy was sent straight into the ground. Under his precise control, this energy was then further diverted to various points in this area.

Weng-!

A light buzzing sound could be heard as an ancient emblem of light appeared from underneath the ground.

World Origin Energy rumbled, gathering towards him.

Lightning flashed in the clouds.

The slightly gloomy sky from before had already become completely shrouded with dark clouds, and raindrops poured down like arrows.

Even so, the God of Pestilence was undeterred as it continued rushing towards Lu Tianzi, and also towards the middle of the formation.

Lu Tianzi stood back up, cutting a valiant figure as he facing the oncoming God of Pestilence without fear. In his hands was the Torrential Sabre, but he was secretly hoping that he would not actually get to use it.

At this moment, the formation that he had so painstakingly set up over the past few days had finally been fully activated.

In the blink of an eye, countless pillars of World Origin Energy rose up from the ground.

These pillars of energy looked like mini tornados, comprised of World Origin Energy that spun around like spirals. To the untrained eye, each of these spirals looked just like a harmless blurry pillar.

The God of Pestilence might not have the intelligence of a true martial artist, but its instincts were much stronger.

It knew at first glance that these seemingly harmless spirals of energy were not nearly as innocuous as they appeared to be.

But even so, in its pursuit of Lu Tianzi, the God of Pestilence had already ventured far into the area.

From where it was, multiple spirals instantly formed around it, trapping it in place.

And then one such spiral spawned right beneath it.

Hit!

The spiral of World Origin Energy struck the God of Pestilence from below, tearing apart its skin and cutting right into its flesh like a meat grinder.

Thousand Spirals Killing Formation.

That was the name of this formation, one that Lu Tianzi had specifically chosen to take down the God of Pestilence.
