Chapter 341 Breaking the Formation
Gu Yuchuan was already resigned to death. He had only one thought in his mind: to help his believers live. He did not want to see them die.
The clouds in the sky grew even thicker, and water vapor condensed rapidly. Finally, it was time for rain to fall. In an instant, countless drops of water fell from the sky. In the torrential rain, the people used everything they could to collect water. They were truly afraid and wanted to preserve as much water as possible. Their thinking was not wrong, after all, Gu Yuchuan would not have a second chance, and his life was about to end.
Looking at the happy people below, a smile appeared on his own face. In this way, he had no regrets. He was a god, and he had fulfilled his duties as a god. He was worthy of his identity and worthy of his believers. He had truly done it.
Half an hour had passed, and Judge Wu had arrived. Judge Wu was a Nascent Soul cultivator, and in an instant, he was in front of Gu Yuchuan. He was dignified and solemn, and his aura was so overwhelming that Gu Yuchuan could hardly breathe.
"Evil dragon, you have disobeyed the decree and sent rain without permission, which is a grave crime. Prepare to die! You little snake, instead of cherishing your divine position, you have done such a thing. You are simply audacious!"
Outside, Qionghua's eyes were filled with worry. She could see that the Martial Judge's strength far surpassed that of her king. Even if her king regained his memories and magic power, he might not be able to defeat him, and surviving would be a struggle, let alone now that he only had the strength of the Foundation Establishment stage. Death was imminent. She looked at the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor, hoping that he would lend a hand.
However, the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor, as a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, had a very high level of vision and a very sharp eye. He had already seen that this layer of formation was designed to test the heart and see if the dragon that was walking could fulfill the duties of a dragon god.
Dragons have been natural gods of clouds and rain since the ancient primordial era. Especially after the Investiture of the Gods, they were even conferred titles by the Heavenly Court, making them rare gods of law recognized by the Heavenly Court. They are also gods who can cultivate faith. The first layer of this great formation is to see if this dragon is suitable to be a god.
Clearly, Gu Yuchuan was a suitable candidate; however, the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor could not pretend not to see Qionghua's burning gaze.
"Don't worry, this is a mental training formation. It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies. This isn't his true form either. I think he's already very close to breaking the formation. If you don't believe me, just keep watching."
Qionghua was much relieved. She couldn't see the supernatural phenomenon, but she chose to believe the Demon Emperor. After all, she thought that the Demon Emperor didn't want to see the dragon-walking attempt fail, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the Demon Lord.
On the other side of Canglan Realm, their expressions also turned extremely ugly. As the ones who set up the formation, they naturally knew that Gu Yuchuan was on the right track. They really couldn't understand how a prodigy could have such a compassionate and merciful heart. Could they really pass the first test so easily?
They were helpless. The Dragon-Slaying Formation was an array inherent to the Dragon-Slaying Sword itself. Although they activated it with their magic power, they really couldn't control it very precisely. They could only watch it. However, there was a second level to this array. They didn't believe that Gu Yuchuan could succeed so easily. This second level was even more difficult.
Inside the formation, Gu Yuchuan looked at the Martial Judge in front of him. He had no intention of fighting. A Nascent Soul cultivator was simply beyond his ability to deal with. He could just wait to die peacefully and have a quick death. However, he felt distressed.
He looked at Judge Wu and said, "Your Honor, you are also a deity, but do you have no compassion at all? What does their human race's internal strife have to do with us? If they want to take revenge on Zou Family Village, they can just issue an order to kill them. Why should we have a deity do it? They are my people, my believers. I must protect them. I have done nothing wrong. I am a deity, not a lackey of humanity!"
Judge Wu was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected the other party to utter such treasonous words. But they were originally gods of humanity, not the kind of law gods who cultivated themselves. Naturally, they were the lackeys of humanity. Why would they think like that? His face turned ashen. He couldn't allow anyone to insult his master like that.
"You audacious dragon, you have committed such evil deeds, yet you still dare to spread falsehoods and mislead the masses. I see you are truly courting death. Today I will shatter your divine body and ensure you are never reincarnated."
The people below all knelt down, begging the Martial Judge not to kill the god who protected them, but the Martial Judge completely ignored them and slashed down with his sword. Gu Yuchuan had no resistance. His divine body began to fester and decay, and finally dissipated.
The people below began to wail and cry. They knew that this rain was the last time they would see it, and that they had even paid for it with the lives of their gods. They had no choice but to leave their homes and seek a chance to survive. They were truly heartbroken.
The next second, the first layer of the formation in front of him shattered, and Gu Yuchuan also recovered his cultivation and strength. He had many doubts in his mind. This formation didn't seem like a formation at all, but more like a test, to see if he had the potential to become a dragon. However, would the other party be so kind? He felt that the other party probably didn't even know what the Dragon Slaying Formation was.
However, he wouldn't remind them that there was a second challenge ahead. He looked at the people outside the formation with a mocking smile.
"You're nothing special. This formation looks so simple, much simpler than the one I broke a while ago. If this is all you've got, you might as well kill yourselves. I might let you die a quick death. But if you really want to continue fighting, I guarantee you'll die a very miserable death."
A True Person suddenly appeared, a woman named Luo Yun Zhenren. She pointed at Gu Yuchuan with a fierce look in her eyes and a very violent tone: "Monster, don't be arrogant. Your strength is nothing special in our eyes. Break this formation first, and then we'll talk about the rest. Even if you break the formation, we eighteen True Persons are waiting for you here. You can't defeat so many of us. I'll give you this advice: you'd better kill yourself as soon as possible, so that we can at least give you a complete corpse. Otherwise, we haven't even eaten dragon meat yet, and we want to try it now."
Gu Yuchuan's eyes grew even colder: "Fine, I'll remember your words. I'll make my move against you first. Just you wait. Come on, let's see what you're capable of with this second layer of formation."
