Chapter 1243: Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation

As Qin Lian's voice echoed throughout Abyssal City, numerous beams of light shot up into the air. The light runes interweaved with each other in the sky above the city.

Sounds of gushing water echoed through the air as a terrifying formation materialized, causing the void to tremble violently.

All the Dukes in the city looked up at the giant formation in the sky. It appeared to have torn the sky apart as a pitch-black deluge of water burst out.

The black water gave off a terrifying feeling. It seemed like even a Duke would disintegrate in an instant if they came into contact with it.

This was the defensive ward that the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin had set up in Abyssal City.

The Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation!

It was said that this formation was capable of fending off even Kings. It was one of the main reasons why Abyssal City had managed to survive the Stygian Rain of Calamity time and time again. As one of the Heavenly Emperor powers in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, the foundation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin was indeed worthy of its name.

Qin Lian felt a little more confident when she looked up at the Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation. She was the highest ranking administrator in Abyssal City right now and the only one who had the authority to utilize the defensive ward.

Her sharp eyes turned towards Li Jingzhe, who remained in the middle of the sky, allowing her to activate the defensive ward. "Lineage Chief Jingzhe, if you retreat right now, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin will treat it as if nothing happened here today."

Li Jingzhe looked back at her coldly. "Are you done activating the formation?"

Qin Lian's eyes darkened immediately. Was Li Jingzhe waiting for her to activate the defensive ward of Abyssal City on purpose? It seemed like he was really here to wreak havoc. She couldn't help but feel frightened at the thought of it. She did not expect Li Jingzhe's fury to have reached such a point.

He was the Lineage Chief best known for always following the rules. Why was he acting so unreasonably this time?

Nonetheless, she felt no regrets on her decision to ambush Li Luo earlier. The Genesis Seed was far too important. If the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin could get their hands on it, they would definitely become the strongest power in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. Even the other three Emperor Bloodlines would have to step aside for them. Qin Lian gritted her teeth with that thought in mind. She activated the Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation with the plaque in her hand. She did not harbor any crazy thoughts of resisting Li Jingzhe with her own strength. After all, he was a Dual Crowned King. Such a terrifying presence could easily flatten her eight Duke Bergfrieds as soon as she brought them out.

As such, she could only hope to resist him temporarily with the defensive ward.

When Qin Lian activated the formation, endless streams of black water gushed out. Every drop of water carried the formidable power of erosion. Wherever it flowed by, the surroundings disintegrated without a sound.

The streams of black water filled the air, and the whole city came to a standstill for a moment. Suddenly, the black water burst forth like a torrent of rain and charged towards Li Jingzhe.

A single ball of water was enough to liquefy a middle-grade Duke. Physically bearing witness to such a large number of them caused the Dukes that were watching below to all feel a chill run up their spines.

This was the terrifying might of a Heavenly Emperor power.

However, Li Jingzhe's aged face remained unfazed amidst this development. Two mythical and majestic crowns materialized above his head.

These crowns contained an immense, ancient power, resembling the primordial energy from the beginning of time. Every rune on it contained a special kind of source origin energy.

A clear and authoritative pressure flooded the city.

Suddenly, the Duke Bergfrieds of all the Dukes from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin were suppressed uncontrollably, forced back into their bodies. They were shaking nonstop, as if they were afraid of something.

Their Duke Bergfrieds were wailing in fear as if they were too afraid to appear in front of a King.

Many of the Duke rogue cultivators were left dumbfounded when they experienced Li Jingzhe's true power. Their Duke Bergfrieds were completely stifled in his presence.

"Scram," Li Jingzhe said indifferently, and an authoritative pressure swept across the field from the two crowns on his head.

Bang!

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the countless streams of black water that were charging towards him were pulled back by what seemed like some sort of natural law. They gradually parted, unable to come within a thousand feet ofLi Jingzhe.

The authority of a King was truly absolute.

Fear appeared in Qin Lian's eyes when she witnessed this. The power of the Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation had been pushed back by a single word from Li Jingzhe. The might of a Dual Crowned King was truly terrifying. She was shocked deep in her core, but her hands did not stop. She bit the tip of her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. It all fell onto the plaque in her hands.

Her face turned significantly paler as a result.

Bang!

She formed a series of hand seals so quickly that it left behind afterimages. The Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation surged up like a tidal wave and gradually split open. A giant beast that was hundreds of thousands of feet tall slowly emerged.

Countless cries of surprise could be heard from the city underneath.

The giant beast was pitch black. Its body was covered in ebony scales and the horns of a deer extended out of its head. A dark halo floated behind the back of its head.

"Blackwater Kirin!"

Qin Yi, Chu Qing, and the others were surprised to see the giant beast. Qin Lian had channeled the Blackwater Divine Transformation Formation into an extremely ferocious offensive art.

Roar!

The Blackwater Kirin let out a low roar as it emerged from the water. Its ferocious roar traveled thousands of miles and caused the world to shake.

"Charge!" Qin Lian cried out excitedly.

The Blackwater Kirin raised its four hoofs and stepped out. Everytime a hoof landed, a puddle of black water appeared beneath it and spread into the surroundings. From the looks of it, everything within thousands of miles would turn into a swamp of black water as the beast charged forward.

When the Blackwater Kirin stepped forward, it suddenly transformed into a dark rainbow stream of light and shot ahead with utmost speed. The light contained countless magical runes, continuously flowing around it.

This seemingly ordinary charge looked harmless at first glance, but immense fear could be seen on the faces of many Dukes within the city. They understood that even if a ninth-grade Duke were standing in its way, the giant beast would not be obstructed or even slowed.

A hint of anticipation surfaced in Qin Lian's eyes. She did not expect the Blackwater Kirin to stop Li Jingzhe. All she wanted was for it to cause a little trouble for him, buying some time for herself.

Before everyone's eyes, the Blackwater Kirin charged directly towards Li Jingzhe. Li Jingzhe stretched out his wizened palm, and it expanded at an astonishing speed. In just a few moments, it was large enough to cover up the sun in the sky.

Numerous spiritual lights started circulating around it, and countless ancient runes appeared on it.

The giant palm grabbed the terrifying Blackwater Kirin directly.

The fearsome black water swept up and attempted to erode the giant palm, but to no avail. The palm did not waver at all. Spiritual light surrounded the palm and completely negated the water’s effects.

A moment later, the giant palm clenched tightly.

The Blackwater Kirin that struck fear in all the countless Dukes exploded.

Boom!

The void was shattered and pitch-black water fell. The city that suffered from the aftermath was eroded, and everyone within its range hurried to take cover.

Qin Lian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. She was shocked that her fearsome attack was crushed by Li Jingzhe with a single movement! The difference between their strengths was unbelievable.

Run!

Qin Lian's heart was completely filled with fear now.

However, numerous mythic runes appeared in the world space around her before she could even turn around to escape. The runes imprisoned her and locked down the space completely.

At the same time, the giant palm fell from the sky with a screeching sound.

Qin Lian was horrified.

Bang!

The palm hit her body directly.

In that instant, her flesh and blood was instantly smashed apart. Qin Lian was crushed and pummeled into the ground.

A deep hole appeared in the middle of the city.

Qin Lian, with half her skeleton exposed, could be seen lying in the depths of the hole. Her breath was weak and fresh blood covered her entire body.
