Towards the Path of Heaven
Chapter 187

The giant pale finger hung above his head, ready to descend at any moment. However, at this moment the gigantic finger could no longer descend. Yan Chutian made a seal, and under the activation of his seal, a radiance of spiritual power appeared, vaguely forming an incredible array!

Spiritual Energy threads intertwined with each other, and lotus petals appeared wherever the thread extended. Its petals closed together, turning into an indestructible and powerful defense. It was as if no attack could damage it in the slightest.

This was not the first time Yan Chutian had used this lotus array, but when this array appeared, it still caused the crowd to exclaim. Since this array appeared too suddenly, it could only be said that the arrangement method of Yan Chutian's array was truly extraordinary. Without anyone noticing, he arranged a majestic array.

With an indestructible gigantic array, even if the gigantic finger carried an extremely frightening offensive power, it could not penetrate at all. On the contrary, under the continuous round of the great lotus, there were signs of wear.

The arrangement of the formation was complicated and difficult, but because of this, it possessed a power stronger than spiritual power at the same level. This is a very good explanation.

But what shocked the disciples who witnessed was not just that. After the lotus formation was activated, Yan Chutian did not stop the seal in his hand. He continued to condense the Qi that had long flowed in his dantian, and it flowed into his right arm. After Yan Chutian gently pointed his finger, it turned into a Mysterious Flame Finger and exploded towards Hong Gu.

Yan Chutian was actually going to counterattack!

Everyone really did not expect that after such a sudden defense, Yan Chutian had actually prepared a counterattack. This way, not even Hong Gu was prepared to accept it, was he?

Looking at Hong Gu, the current face of Hong Gu was completely shocked. Clearly, even he had not noticed the array that Yan Chutian had arranged secretly before.

However, Hong Gu was still Hong Gu. As the number one disciple of the Northern Region, how could he panic because of this, and he would not allow himself to panic!

Hong Gu did not retreat when the giant Finger was pressed down. He raised his hand, and a pale aura continued to surge out. Under the influence of the pale aura, a large amount of spiritual energy gathered. He did not need to spend too much spiritual energy to condense strong defenses.

A moment later, a huge mountain of white bones appeared, as if growing from the ground. It protected Hong Gu behind him, resisting all attacks aimed at him.

"Boom…!"

The Mysterious Flame Finger pressed down fiercely onto the bone mountain. However, this time around, the Mysterious Flame Finger, which had won many times in the past, was unable to obtain any advantage under the bone mountain.. At the same time, the mountain of bones, the Mysterious Flame Finger, cracked.

"Mold …"

The ear-piercing sound of a Mysterious Flame Finger breaking out slowly sounded. At this moment, even Hong Gu could not help but sneer. He thought that it was indeed a weak attack.

However, as he sneered, the crowd once again cried out in fear. Then, a figure as fast as lightning suddenly appeared from somewhere. Clenching his fists, he headed straight for the bone mountain in front of Hong Gu like a moth that was not afraid of death.

"What's he doing?!"

The crowd was unable to understand Yan Chutian's behavior. When his attack was blocked by pieces of bone, the lotus array around him completely destroyed Hong Gu's attack. In that case, he should have adjusted his circumstances and situation, but why did he suddenly explode as if he was not afraid of death?!

Hong Gu also found it hard to understand. He looked at the skinny figure that rushed over with a face full of doubt. However, seeing that his opponent had not slowed down at all, Hong Gu's face was filled with contempt. He would definitely hit a mountain of bones.

No matter what his opponent tried to do, he sought death. He knew very well just how powerful the bone mountain's defense was.

"Boom…!"

A heavy voice sounded. Under everyone's gaze, Yan Chutian's figure disappeared under the bone mountain. Everything is calm again. This caused many disciples to secretly shake their heads, ridiculing Yan Chutian for overestimating his own abilities. Even Hong Gu himself shifted his gaze. Presumably, that Southern Domain disciple was already at the foot of the bone mountain, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.

"How stupid!"

Some elders of the Southern Mountains could not help but scold. Perhaps they expected Yan Chutian's failure, but such a suicide failure made them lose face.

Soon, they found the reason. After a moment of silence, the entire mountain of bones began to tremble violently. Then, under the countless incredulous gazes, a thick crack extended from the base of the bone mountain and pierced through the entire mountain.

Then, a louder rumbling sound was heard. The entire mountain of bones collapsed. From the base of the bone mountain, a figure shot out like an arrow and headed straight for Hong Gu.

Everything happened so quickly that Hong Gu did not even have time to react. When he turned around, he felt a majestic power flowing towards him from behind. He had no time to form a defense and could only fight passively.

"Boom!"

With a muffled voice, Hong Gu was thrown backwards for the first time. Under the incredulous gazes of countless Northern Region disciples, he crashed into the arena and even created a crater on the arena ground.

As of now, some Northern Region disciples were still in a daze as they stared at the huge crater. When they regained consciousness, they immediately shouted in disbelief. Who could accept that the outcome of the situation to be decided had suddenly turned around like this?

"This …"

The Southern Region Elder, who had just cursed, now had an extremely awkward expression on his face. It was as if the words he had just let out had become a slap on his face, making it impossible to advance or retreat.

However, Yan Chutian's glory did not last long. Immediately, a large amount of debris came out from the crater and flowed into the surroundings. Then, a figure, whose entire body surged with a pale white aura, slowly flew up. His white eyes shot out and locked onto Yan Chutian with an indescribable chill.

Hong Gu was expressionless, but those who knew him knew that Hong Gu was really angry at this moment. At this moment, Hong Gu was the most terrifying.

At this moment, Hong Gu was indeed furious that he was unable to accept that he had fallen into a miserable state at the hands of a Southern Region disciple whom he thought he could easily defeat. One had to know that even he did not face Luo Xue in such a manner. How can he show his face now?

Therefore, he would not hold back anymore. Furthermore, he had to use his most powerful means to ruthlessly defeat his opponent!

At the same time, Luo Xue, who was secretly watching the battle, finally spoke. Although Yan Chutian's previous appearance amazed him, Hong Gu was now furious and would definitely use all of his strength. Hence, in his eyes, Yan Chutian's chances of winning were extremely slim.

"Hong Gu will use the power of spirit runes. He's gonna lose…"

"Sister senior, Yan Chu has not necessarily lost. Anyway, she …"

Loring, who was beside Luo Xue, tried to refute. However, he could not say anything when he opened his mouth. Hong Gu's strength was really too strong when he defeated Luo Xue. Even if Yan Chutian was invincible, what could he do when facing Hong Gu?

"Will he use spirit runes?"

Qiu Yu's red lips opened. Her pretty face was even more anxious. He muttered to himself, "Bas an idiot. If you can't win, quickly admit defeat. If you get seriously injured, I .. I won't let you go!"

White runes flowed in Hong Gu's eyes. As the runes intertwined, the shape of the bone ruler gradually appeared. As the bone ruler projected between heaven and earth, it carried the same terrifying strength as when he fought with Luo Xue, oppressing the heavens and earth.

"Bone Blood Runes …!"

Hong Gu muttered softly. Traces of ridicule and cruelty appeared in his eyes, which had been staring at Yan Chutian from the very beginning. He wanted to see how this fellow could withstand the attacks of his spirit runes!

"Gosh!"

The Blood Bone Runes swept out and triggered an astonishing momentum. It was like a turbulent ocean wave. As the Rube bones descended, the lotus formation did not possess much defensive power at all. It was immediately shattered into pieces. Then, the momentum of the bone runes did not decrease and continued to hit Yan Chutian.
