Chapter 779: Door Shaped Formation
Understanding this, Xuan Hao turned his attention towards the guard captain still busy looking around inside the restaurant for the crack in the guardian formation. Even if he did not find anything no matter how hard he was looking around for the crack in the formation that he was searching for, the guard captain still showed no signs of stopping as he continued his search through the restaurant.
I wonder what he is up to-
Swish-!
Caught off guard as both the guard captain and the vice-captain moved at the same time and charged towards the person sitting beside the restaurant owner, Xuan Hao didn't manage to finish his train of thought before both of the Domain Lord's exploded with power as their two domains descended and sealed the area around them. Not wanting to give the person sitting beside the restaurant owner any chance to escape!
"Wha-!? They saw through my Hidden Shadow Technique!? I have to get out of here before more guards show up...!"
Filled with surprise as the two Domain Lord Realm Guards were charging towards him, the person sitting beside the restaurant owner panicked before his own domain spread out and crashed into the domain of the guard captain and the vice-guard captain.
BOOM-!
As the three domains collided with each other, the area a few hundred meters around them were reduced to rubble in an instant. If not for the fact that the guardian formation was reinforcing the surrounding buildings and limiting the area that their fight could be affect, the damage caused by three domains clashing with each other would easily have covered half of the massive capital city and killed millions!
"Ah-! Everyone, out of the way!"
"Th-There are Domain Lords fighting... And it's actually someone bold enough to fight with the guards inside the capital!
"Let's leave quickly, this is getting far too dangerous..."
As the three Domain Lords began fighting, one trying to escape, while the other two tried to restrain him, the people spectating all understood how dangerous things had gotten as they all began moving away from the restaurant where the battle was taking place... Well... What was left of the restaurant now that it had become the centre of a battle between three Domain Lords...
"The guardian formation is restricting the area affected by their battle... But a few dozen people together with the restaurant owner were still caught up in the initial clash of the formation before having a chance to escape..."
Observing the battle from a distance together with the spectators who were bold enough to still stay around to observe the battle, Xuan Hao's gaze remained locked on the person who had been friends with the now dead restaurant owner.
From the clash between the three domains just now, Xuan Hao could clearly tell the strength of all three people involved in the fight.
The Captain of the guards had reached the Fourth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and the vice-captain had reached the Second Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, while the person who had hidden beside the restaurant owner as his friend was actually someone in the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm!
Normally the Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert would win the fight against the two Domain Lord Realm Expert guards... But he was not trying to fight back and was instead trying his best to escape as quickly as possible.
Even if he had the ability to win the fight, it would at least take him half an hour or more to do so!
Although there shouldn't be any Soul Ascension Realm Experts showing up to deal with a matter involving Domain Lord Realm Experts, the Domain Lord Realm Experts in charge of keeping the capital city safe was sure to show up.
At that point in time, even if it was only those First or Second Stage Domain Lord Realm Experts that showed up, he would still get encircled and supressed by the overwhelming number of Domain Lords.
After all, the guards in charge of keeping the safety of the capital was by far one of the most powerful entities inside the capital and was directly managed by the imperial family. Not to mention the many Domain Lords among the guards, a Peak Domain Lord Realm Expert had also been assigned to manage the guards!
Swish~!
Dodging the attack of the two Domain Lord Realm Experts trying to prevent him from leaving, the Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert could not help frowning as several half transparent chains shot up from the ground below him before forcefully chaining him to the ground.
"Hmph! Think you can stop me from leaving with this!?"
Crack~
BOOOM-!
Using his strength to forcibly breaking the chains that had chained him to the ground, the Sixth Stage Domain Lord did not waste any time as he launched an attack towards the vice-captain who was about to attack him while he had been chained to the ground.
"Wha-!?"
Not expecting for him to break through the chains created by her captain's domain to seal his movement, the vice-captain was caught off-guard as she could only take out a small talisman and crush it to form a small barrier in front of herself to protect against the sudden attack!
Crack-!
However, even the barrier she had created by using one of her life saving treasures was not enough to stop the full powered attack of a Sixth Stage Domain Lord Realm Expert-
Bang!
Even if she did not die, she was still sent flying with more than half of her body having been destroyed by the attack.
Although she was someone in the Domain Lord Realm, losing more than half of her body rendered her unable to join the fight again.
"You! You dare!?"
Seeing his vice-captain almost getting killed by the attack of the Sixth Stage Domain Lord, the captain's eyes was filled with killing intent as he charged towards him before he had the chance to escape.
Boom-boom-boom!
As the captain went all out, the destruction caused by their fight also began increasing as the restriction caused by the guardian formation's inactive state could only resist a certain level of power without the formation having to be fully activated.
"Ah-! They are coming over here! Let's leave before we end up like those unfortunate people from earlier!"
"Good idea... Even if it's a good opportunity to watch a fight behind Domain Lord Realm Experts up close, its not worth it if we end up dying..."
Whoosh~
Whoosh~
Whoosh~
As the destruction increased and the area affected by the fight grew wider, the spectators who were standing beside Xuan Hao who were mostly people in the Core Formation Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm at this point in time quickly turned to leave before they ended getting affected by the battle.
Even if they could gain a lot by watching a fight between Domain Lord Realm Experts up close, they also understood how dangerous it would be. Especially when they remembered the fate of the people who had been too close to the Domain Lords when the battle first started... Other than the group of guards who had evacuated safely in time, those people had all ended up dying without even knowing how!
Swish~
Watching as the fight grew more and more intense after the vice-captain had been knocked out of the battle, Xuan Hao decided to move forward while everyone was distracted and entered the now empty ruins of the restaurant where the crack in the guardian formation should be located according to what he had heard from the conversation between the guard captain and his vice-captain.
Swoosh~!
"So, the crack is indeed hidden here... Although it's a little different than I expected..."
Using his divine sense to cover the ruins of the restaurant without caring about the fighting taking place outside moving further and further away from him, Xuan Hao could not help smiling happily after he discovered a small formation in the shape of a small door hidden a few hundred meters below the restaurant.
Although the formation in the shape of a small door was not what Xuan Hao had expected the crack in the guardian formation to look like, he soon understood it as the formation in the shape of a door acted like a part of the guardian formation when closed.
Becoming impossible for the one in control of the guardian formation to sense it, unless the guardian formation was activated at the moment that the door shaped formation was opened to allow someone from outside to sneak inside the capital city!
Whoosh~!
Passing through the ground before arriving in front of the door shaped formation, Xuan Hao did not hesitate to use his domain to forcefully cover the door shaped formation before dismantling it.
Even if the door shaped formation did not seem that special outside of its function to hide from the guardian formation when closed, the natural treasure acting as the core of the door shaped formation should at least be a Transcendent Grade Natural Treasure!
Considering everyone was busy above ground, Xuan Hao decided to take a chance to search for the crack and see if he could take away the treasures that had been used to make the crack in the guardian formation of the capital city while no one paid any attention to the ruins of the restaurant...
