Chapter 570: Eighth Layer Trial: Team Battle (3)
overed in blood, with three deep wounds visible through her flesh.One went straight from the shoulder to the waist, one fell on the abdomen, and one remained on the chest.She was almost split in half....: []
Just as he daydreamed for a moment, the opponent had already launched an attack.
A grand parade, the Zhuque spreads its wings, its double wings stirring up raging flames. The Azure Dragon swirls through clouds, its tail whipping up monstrous waves.
The momentum is not one or two times stronger than the first formation.
Tian Feng's expression was grave, while Lin Qi remained as usual, calm and collected.
The Heavenly Punishing Seven-Kill Formation slowly rose, and seven crimson killing auras instantly shot up from the ground, their imposing presence surging through the formation.
The heavy killing intent was overwhelming, as if it were about to burst through the formation and roar wildly.
Three formations collided as expected.
This time the fight was much more intense and exciting than last time.
Blood-red killing intent, the fiery Vermillion Bird, and the wind-whirling Azure Dragon, the three intertwined to kill each other, attacking and tearing at one another.
After the formation, Lin Qi and the other four focused intently, their fingers dancing like phantoms. Spiritual energy within them vanished rapidly.
The three large formations of soldiers clashed with each other, trying to push forward step by step.
The situation reached a stalemate.
Of the four, Lin Qi was the most skilled and had the most stable mentality.
As soon as the two sides clashed, the two Zhongzhou tacticians immediately sensed their own strengths and weaknesses.
They exchanged a glance and immediately controlled the Suzaku Daybreak Array and Azure Dragon Vortex Heaven Array to separate, attacking the Zhutian Seven Kills Array from two directions simultaneously without weakening their offensive.
Flames surged towards the eyes, a violent wind swept through everywhere, interwoven with the thick killing intent of long blades, fighting each other to death.
Two against one, as time wore on, both sides gradually gained the upper hand, and the Seven Kills formation showed signs of weakness.
Tian Feng's face showed a hint of nervousness, his heart fluttered, and his movements faltered for a moment. He was immediately seized by the opponent and attacked frantically, exploiting his vulnerability.
He took a step back, forced to retreat step by step.
Two people set up their formation, the large formation originally being one whole. With the heavenly winds retreating too much, Lin Qi could only follow suit.
But the opponent seemed to have found a way to break through, frantically attacking one spot and closing in relentlessly.
Both sides were consuming their spiritual energy at an alarming rate, and the situation inside the large formation was changing rapidly, a blur of motion.
After retreating half the distance, Lin Qi and Tian Feng gritted their teeth and finally stabilized.
The opponent's attack also instantly decreased by half, as if taking the opportunity to catch their breath.
Lin Qi and Tianfeng looked at each other.
"I'm afraid these two are gathering their strength, preparing for a second strike to completely break our Qisha Array."
Lin Qi nodded slightly, "Be careful!"
As soon as Lin Qi's words fell, the Zhutian Qisha Array was torn open.
The surging energy was like a raging river, charging forward with reckless abandon. It surged through the opening, sweeping away all traces of murderous intent wherever it passed.
Three forces clash, while the other two advance like a broken bamboo.
Lin Qi and Tian Feng were forced to retreat step by step.
Looking at the steadily weakening Qisha formation, Zhongzhou Nungjian and Chen Qinghui's eyes lit up with joy.
Having learned from their previous mistakes, they dared not get ahead of themselves. As the critical moment approached, they became even more careful and cautious, fearing any unforeseen circumstances.
The Zhuque Solar Array and the Azure Dragon Rolling Sky Array, having transformed from separate attacks into a unified force, simultaneously unleashed their power, aiming to utterly destroy the Zhutian Qisha Array.
Only at crucial moments did both of them realize something was amiss.
"The power of the formation is getting weaker, why is the killing intent in the formation becoming stronger instead!"
Both parties locked eyes, gritted their teeth, and channeled more spiritual energy to strengthen their attacks.
The next second, the Zhutian Qisha Array suddenly shattered.
Before the two could even show delight, new lines appeared on the ground. They not only covered the original Qisha formation, but their aura was several times stronger than before.
Chen Qinghui cried out in disbelief, "It's a formation within a formation!"
His complexion turned dark and gloomy, the joy he once felt had vanished. "The Eight Kills Formation of Punishing Immortals!"
The two almost gritted their teeth to dust.
Regardless of the unexpected appearance of the players on the field, the Heavenly Slaughter Eight Formation is vastly superior to the Heavenly Slaughter Seven Formation. It's like heaven and earth apart.
The Seven Kills Formation is just an ordinary seventh-rank formation, but the Eight Kills Formation changes in power depending on the strength of the one setting it up.
The grade can reach as high as eight levels, and the lowest is also a product of seven levels.
They have already joined hands to solve a Qi Sha array, and another Ba Sha array is simply beyond their capacity.
They complained that Lin Qi and Tian Feng acted like they were faking it, fearing they had been acting from the beginning.
That is them expending all their energy to cast the Eight Killers Array.
Although the two were still fighting hard, they had a sense in their hearts that this fight was already nearing its end.
Before the third day even arrived, the Eight Killing Formation controlled by Lin Qi and Tian Feng unleashed a formidable aura, effortlessly shattering two opposing formations and securing victory in the second round of the competition.
Three rounds of competition, one draw and one loss. The two strategists from Zhongzhou looked very displeased.
In the next match, they have to win.
Even if it was a draw, they still lost.
A thick fog rose again, obscuring both their vision and psychic detection.
Tian Feng's legs went weak, and he plopped down on the ground with a heavy sigh.
"I was so scared, I almost lost!"
Lin Qi looked at Tianfeng and gave him a thumbs up. "Good acting, even better strategy!"
The formation "Inside Formation" was Tian Feng's idea, but he originally only planned to use a similar-strength formation, mainly to catch the enemy off guard.
But when Lin Qi heard him talk about the formation's layout, he directly proposed the Zhutian Qisha and Zhutian Bashsha formations.
The Zhutian Nine Killing Arrays have nine formations, each formation being an upgraded version of the previous one.
As long as it is concealed properly, until the decisive moment of battle arrives, the enemy would find it extremely difficult to detect the inner formation within the formation.
The only downside is that it's difficult.
To set up this formation is comparable to arranging an Eighth Rank Formation.
After both sides finished setting up their formations, they even worked together to put on a show of luring the enemy in. This time, victory came so easily and quickly.
Tian Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Lin is still amazing. I thought of using formations in battle, but I never thought of using the Zhutian Qisha Formation and Zhutian Bashi Formation..."
While a conventional formation might lead to victory, the win rate is not high and it's easily detected by the opponent in advance, raising their level of caution.
Lin Qi sighed helplessly, "Tianfeng, I'll say it again. Don't underestimate yourself. You were the one who suggested the formation and you put in a lot of effort designing its techniques. I may be more skilled, but you are not far behind."
You are even more powerful than those two in Zhongzhou!
Seeing Lin Qi's confident expression, Tian Feng felt a mix of excitement and anxiety. "Really"
Lin Qi's face showed confusion, "The facts speak for themselves. Why does Tian Feng, your junior brother, always refuse to believe the truth and insist on belittling himself"
"Don't compare yourself to others. Just say that at your young age you are already a seventh-rank array master. How many people in the entire North and South continents can compare to you Even if you walk sideways, people would praise you for being amazing."
Tianfeng sighed and told Lin Qi the reason helplessly.
It turns out this is related to Tian Feng's experiences along the way.
He is a person who becomes stronger when facing strong opponents and weaker when facing weak ones.
As soon as he entered the Wan Zhen Peak, he had a talent for setting up formations, but he was always at an average level.
Not bad, but certainly not eye-catching.
A common piece of advice you hear is those old, tired sayings that tell you not to be arrogant. Don't get too proud over small accomplishments. Remember, there are always people above you, and there's always someone better.
The disciples in the Myriad Formations Sect only cultivate and learn about formation arts, practicing a system of elimination and promotion.ccidentally gripped a sharp stone pillar, and his mind flashed with lightning speed.He held up the stone pillar in his hand and shouted, "You seduced Sangyu with just this face, making him completely...
