Primordial Star Scripture

In a matter of just over ten breaths, Ye Chen arrived in front of the second Giant Rock Formation.

There were significantly more boulders constituting the second Giant Rock Formation than the first one, and their shapes were even more peculiar.

As Ye Chen reached the front of the second Giant Rock Formation, like before, a Rock Warrior wielding a stone bar appeared from within.

This Rock Warrior had an aura even mightier than the one guarding the first Giant Rock Formation.

While the second Rock Warrior, just like the first, started explaining the rules of breaking the Giant Rock Formation to Ye Chen, his gaze was already locked onto the entire layout of the second Giant Rock Formation.

Before the second Rock Warrior could finish speaking, Ye Chen's figure flashed as he shot toward a massive boulder on the right side of the entrance to the second Giant Rock Formation.

"Young friend Ye Chen, he..."

Seeing Ye Chen's actions, the Rock Giant Divine King outside of the "Slaughter Chess Game" felt his heart skip a beat.

An incredible thought flashed through its mind, "Could it be that young friend Ye Chen has also deciphered the second Giant Rock Formation?"

"This, this is too fast! It's even quicker than breaking the first one!"

Just as the Rock Giant Divine King was struggling to believe it, he saw Ye Chen, upon reaching the fourth boulder on the right side of the entrance to the second Giant Rock Formation, strike out directly at the fourth boulder.

After slapping the fourth boulder on the right, which let out a soft sound, Ye Chen did not pause and immediately struck toward the fifth boulder on the right.

Right four, right five, left three, left six, left seven, right two!

Ye Chen struck six times in succession.

He was unmistakably breaking the Formation!

The Rock Warrior tasked with guarding the second Giant Rock Formation hadn't even finished speaking, and Ye Chen had already begun to break the Formation!

This situation left the Rock Giant Divine King outside of the "Slaughter Chess Game" completely agape.

While the Rock Giant Divine King was still too shocked to utter a word, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" loud crashes reverberated. The second Giant Rock Formation, just like the first one, suddenly collapsed, dissipating into nothingness.

The guardian Rock Warrior vanished, and the path to the third Giant Rock Formation appeared once again.

Ye Chen, remarkably, had broken through the second Giant Rock Formation!

After that, Ye Chen continued in his unstoppable momentum, crazily blazing through the path ahead.

With seven strikes, he broke the third Giant Rock Formation.

With nine strikes, he broke the fourth Giant Rock Formation.

With thirteen strikes, he broke the fifth Giant Rock Formation...

When Ye Chen unceasingly shattered sixteen Giant Rock Formations in one go and approached the seventeenth, the Rock Giant Divine King outside the "Slaughter Chess Game" was so thrilled that he jumped up.

He had defended the Undersea Divine Palace's fourteenth layer for countless years and seen numerous martial artists break the "Slaughter Chess Game," but he had never seen anyone break the Formation as swiftly as Ye Chen!

He had never seen any martial artist break the Formation with such ease!

Previously, the Rock Giant Divine King had been worried that Ye Chen had seen the formation of the first Giant Rock Formation beforehand, which was why he broke it so effortlessly.

But now, Ye Chen had sequentially broken sixteen Giant Rock Formations without a single mistake.

At this point, the Rock Giant Divine King fully realized that this young friend, Ye Chen, truly possessed great strength!

Ye Chen was not simply knowledgeable of the Formation of the Giant Rock Formations!

After all, even being familiar with the Formation wouldn't allow someone to know the Formations of so many Giant Rock Formations; clearly, his young friend Ye Chen had discerned the method behind the Giant Rock Formations!

He was breaking the Formations with absolute strength!

Thinking this, the heart of the Rock Giant Divine King pounded even more fiercely.

For the first time, it felt that it was so close to breaking the "Creation Chess Board," and it was very likely that the hope for their "Rock People Tribe" to escape the exiled state was resting on Ye Chen's shoulders!

At this moment, the Rock Giant Divine King's eyes widened, fully observing every move Ye Chen made, every technique he used to break the formations.

It wanted to see if Ye Chen could, like before, break the next sixteen Giant Rock Formations as well!

When Ye Chen arrived at the seventeenth Giant Rock Formation, he saw a Rock Warrior of the sixth tribulation true god level emerge from it.

Seeing the state of the seventeenth Giant Rock Formation, Ye Chen smiled lightly.

"The previous sixteen Giant Rock Formations were only third-order or lower. This seventeenth one finally looks a bit more challenging, reaching the fourth-order formation level."

With a slight smile, Ye Chen nodded at the Rock Warrior of the seventeenth Giant Rock Formation and then, with an explosive movement, he began breaking through it as well.

This time, Ye Chen struck the giant rocks twenty-three times, and with a "boom," the seventeenth Giant Rock Formation was also broken!

A fourth-order Formation could not trouble Ye Chen at all!

During his more than eight years of cultivation inside the "Void Celestial Gourd," Ye Chen had already fully mastered the first three volumes of the "Nine Volumes of Formation Array" left by Heavenly Cloud Venerable.

The first three volumes of the "Nine Volumes of Formation Array" not only covered fourth-order formations but also encompassed all the foundational nine orders of formations, even touching upon true god level and Divine King level formations!

The fourth-order Formation involved in this seventeenth Giant Rock Formation was far from reaching Ye Chen's limit of breaking formations!

The seventeenth Giant Rock Formation, broken!

Next was the eighteenth Giant Rock Formation, broken!

Ye Chen advanced with an unstoppable momentum, breaking thirty Giant Rock Formations in one breath and arrived in front of the thirty-first!

At this point, the Rock Giant Divine King watching from outside the "Slaughter Chess Game," had clenched both of his massive hands tightly.

It had speculated that the miraculous Ye Chen might be able to get through the Slaughter Chess Game, but it never imagined that Ye Chen could advance through the game with such speed and in such a manner.

In less than the time it took to finish a cup of tea, Ye Chen had reached the second to last of all thirty-two Giant Rock Formations!

Keep in mind, even the current three great ninth tribulation true gods took a whole month to reach this penultimate Giant Rock Formation!

"Only the last two Giant Rock Formations remain."

"Once Ye Chen breaks these final two, he will be able to get through this 'Slaughter Chess Game' and qualify to help us comprehend the 'Creation Chess Board'!"

Thinking this, the Rock Giant Divine King had already taken out the half-meter wide "Creation Chess Board," waiting for Ye Chen.

The Rock Giant Divine King now knew that Ye Chen must have profound knowledge in formations to be able to decode the game like this.

Mastery over formations.

Likewise, it could help decode the "Creation Chess Board"!

At this point, the hopes of the Rock Giant were greatly elevated!

While the Rock Giant Divine King took out the "Creation Chess Board," waiting for Ye Chen, Ye Chen finally approached the thirty-first Giant Rock Formation.

Looking at the ninth tribulation true god guard emerging from the Giant Rock Formation, Ye Chen smiled lightly.

This was the first time he had tasted the benefits of cultivating this "side job" in formations.

If he had to rely on brute force to break through the formations, with his current realm, it would have been impossible for him to reach this thirty-first Giant Rock Formation and face a ninth tribulation true god level Rock Warrior in combat.

But now, with his expertise in formations, he didn't need to battle the ninth tribulation true god level Rock Warrior; he could break the formation directly and advance!

"The last two big formations are left, then let's continue breaking through!"

After a faint smile, Ye Chen moved without wasting time and began breaking through the thirty-first Giant Rock Formation!
