Chapter 79 of "The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries" starts with dramatic events: The gates of Wu Wang's Mansion opened. An old man with white hair and beard... Discover what happens!

The gates of Wu Wang's Mansion opened. An old man with white hair and beard walked out, stating, "The Martial King already knows your intention, please enter the mansion!" Shi Jian heard his words and directly lifted his leg, walking into the mansion. The other people from Zhulu Academy wanted to follow him, but the old man stopped them. "The Martial King only sees Ba Ba alone!" He squinted at the crowd from Zhulu Academy. The Disciples of Zhulu Academy frowned; this attitude was clearly suspicious. Shi Jian, however, didn't care. He simply calmly instructed everyone: "You can wait here!" Then, he looked at the old man: "Lead the way..." Seeing his arrogant posture, the old man's mouth curled into a cold sneer. "You treat me as a servant to lead the way for you? How arrogant. I hope you can still be arrogant in a moment..." He led Shi Jian to a courtyard. In the courtyard, the Martial King was nowhere to be seen. There were only a few elders from Wu Wang's Mansion. The old man who had led the way previously revealed a cold sneer: "Do you think everyone is qualified to challenge the Martial King? If you want to challenge the Martial King, you must first pass us!" He quickly took out a stone box, slapped his hand on it, and countless streams of light burst forth from within! Then, dozens of Flying Swords soared from the stone box. These Flying Swords were all Treasure Artifacts, each only palm-sized, but they were crystal clear and exuded terrifying power! These Flying Swords seemed to have some connection with the Formation inside Wu Wang's Mansion. Their power received some kind of amplification. Powerful energy was brewing on the Flying Swords. A few wisps of Sword Qi escaped, and the bluestones on the ground were instantly cut into pieces like tofu. One must know that these were stone bricks inside Wu Wang's Mansion, covered with Formation patterns. Even a fully powered strike from an Engravement expert would struggle to leave a mark on them. Yet, the scattered Sword Qi managed to do so. From this alone, one could see the terror of this Sword Formation. This was a great killing weapon. The people of Wu Wang's Mansion had used this Sword Formation to kill Formation Arrangement Marquises before. This was a gift they specially prepared for Shi Jian. "Is that all?" Shi Jian, who had waited for them for most of the day despite knowing that the people of Wu Wang's Mansion might have a scheme, was a little disappointed. He had no interest in playing these "house-playing" type of small games with the people of Wu Wang's Mansion. "If this is the Martial King's intention, I will be very disappointed..." Shi Jian said calmly, no longer restraining his Aura. His Aura erupted like a volcano, and that scorching, destructive Aura instantly spread across the entire area! The terrifying Aura made people's faces turn pale with fright. "Kill!" Several elders snorted coldly at the sight, and instantly, blue Sword Blades broke through the air one after another, incredibly sharp, like a divine light rising from a vast blue sea... Killing Intent soared to the Heavens. Any single Sword Blade had the power to slay an Engravement expert. Even weaker Formation Arrangement Kings would perish on the spot under these Sword Blades. Shi Jian, however, merely flicked his finger lightly and calmly, then tapped it onto a Sword Blade. With a crisp sound, the Sword Blade was sent flying backward, and cracks instantly appeared on it! The elder from Wu Wang's Mansion who was controlling this Flying Sword immediately suffered a backlash. "How is this possible? These are divine swords refined from the bones of ancient relict species, inscribed with supreme Formation patterns! Even a Formation Arrangement King cannot shatter them with a single blow!" The elder was in disbelief. The other elders were also shocked by this scene, but their actions did not stop. This Sword Formation focused on momentum. The sword light stirred up waves like a surging tide. Each wave had to be stronger than the last, and more powerful than the last... One layer after another of Sword waves could overlap and be continuous. The later the Flying Sword, the stronger its power. Shi Jian could block the first one, but could he block all of them? In response, Shi Jian's answer was simply a single punch. Divine light emerged from his body in waves, and then he unleashed a punch. A terrifying Qi wave instantly swept across the entire area. The soaring Evil Qi shattered the ocean of sword light. "Bang, bang, bang!" Several consecutive collision sounds rang out, and all the remaining Flying Swords fell to the ground like broken copper and scrap iron, losing their mystical properties. All the elders suffered backlash and spat out fresh blood. They looked at Shi Jian in horror, not expecting his strength to be so formidable. This Sword Formation could clearly kill even ordinary Formation Arrangement Kings. Yet, it was broken by Shi Jian with such ease! The elders of Wu Wang's Mansion felt they had already highly regarded Shi Jian, preparing a Sword Formation that could suppress ordinary Formation Arrangement experts for him. But they still underestimated Shi Jian. Shi Jian's strength had probably reached the peak of the King-sealing realm. A child less than ten years old, comparable to the Martial King! What kind of legend was this? "Wu Wang's Mansion, nothing more than this!" Looking at the fallen elders of Wu Wang's Mansion, Shi Jian said calmly. "Don't get too proud, Ba Ba, we have prepared more than just this for you!" An elder spoke fiercely. In an instant, all the Formation patterns in this courtyard were activated, emitting dazzling light that immediately surrounded Shi Jian. Here, Flood Dragons and Pixius coiled around. The group of elders quickly retreated, then burst into laughter: "These are the three great killing Formations of our Shi Clan, you are sure to die!" Their preparations were more than adequate. In addition to the previous Sword Formation, they had also set up three ancestral killing Formations of their clan to suppress this place. Shi Jian was right in the center of the Formation. "With this, you want to kill me?" Shi Jian's expression was calm when he saw this situation. This Formation had also been used by the people of Wu Wang's Mansion to deal with the Great Demonic God. They couldn't even trap the Great Demonic God, and they still wanted to kill him? Such wishful thinking was all it was. "Where is the Martial King!" Shi Jian let out a roar, his eyes bursting with light, and threads of runes instantly spread across the Void Realm, emitting thunderous sounds. He pointed his finger forward, and dazzling lightning instantly engulfed the entire area. Countless lightning runes disintegrated the killing Formation. As the light beams attacking Shi Jian were about to land on him, they were extinguished by an unknown force. "Boom!" With a loud bang, Heaven and Earth shattered. The entire courtyard exploded, and everyone retreated. Shi Jian, like a Demonic God descending, stepped out of the killing Formation. He walked straight out, his gaze still calmly sweeping over everyone. Someone saw the unfavorable situation and wanted to immediately flee, but instead exploded on the spot. "Where is the Martial King!" Shi Jian spoke again, and all the palaces swayed with it. A terrifying ripple spread, and countless people from Wu Wang's Mansion were sent flying, then spat out large mouthfuls of blood as they crashed into nearby buildings. "I came to challenge the Martial King, why does the Martial King avoid the fight?" Shi Jian said coldly. The entire Imperial Capital of the Stone Kingdom was shaken by him. After seeing this scene, countless experts no longer hid themselves but openly gathered to watch the show. They were startled when they saw the scene here. They instantly understood the reason for the matter. Wu Wang's Mansion must have secretly made a move against Shi Jian. They must have prepared killing moves specifically targeting Formation Arrangement Kings. Now, all these killing moves had been resolved by Shi Jian. Does this mean... Shi Jian truly possesses the combat power of a Formation Arrangement King?
