Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 60 Secret Attack

"Not good!" The faces of the three gods changed suddenly and turned pale. City Lord Tang flew out directly, and the magic spells in his hands almost left an afterimage. In the shortest time, he summoned a barrier again to protect the sky above Yuanhai City.

The other two Divine Transformations reacted quickly, following suit and using their incantations to join forces with City Lord Tang to create a temporary barrier. However, it was only temporarily summoned, and its range was only enough to protect the people in the city center. It had no effect on the lakes and mountains outside. Lightning bolts and wind blades roared down from the sky, sending dust flying everywhere.

Qiu Ci also flew over, but looking at the overwhelming lightning and the wind blades falling outside the city, she knew that if this continued, the entire city would be shattered. She also had a vague premonition that the real fear might not be these lightning and wind blades.

She directly released the system and said, "System, scan the current situation of Yuanhai City and analyze the most suitable defense method."

[Alright, Master! The damage rate at Yuanhai City is currently 30% and continues to rise. If it falls below 50%, it will lose its levitation power. The best defense plan at the moment is to reactivate the original protective formation and overlay the Nine-Transformation Five Elements Defense Formation for a perfect defense.]

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen red marking points appeared in front of Qiu Ci's eyes. Those were the positions of the array's core points automatically marked by the system.

Without hesitation, she took out several formation flags, and with a turn of her hand, the flags automatically flew towards the marked points. The next moment, more than a dozen formation lights shot up into the sky, and the previously broken protective magic circle reappeared and began to slowly wrap around Yuanhai City.

"This is..." City Lord Tang and the other two also reacted. They just exchanged glances to show their tacit understanding over the years. Wen and Kang withdrew their hands first and instead input their spiritual power into the magic circle on Qiu Ci's side.

With the addition of these two people, the magic circle closed faster and faster. After half a quarter of an hour, it was completely closed, blocking out the lightning and strong wind in the sky again.

City Lord Tang also removed the temporary barrier and worked together with the three people to stabilize the protective formation that reappeared. "Success!" Looking at the formation that was stabilized again, City Lord Tang was delighted and was about to ask Chu Qiuci how he managed to reawaken the formation.

Looking back, he found that the magic circle in Qiu Ci's hand did not stop at all, but became faster and faster, and the spiritual power in his body burst out completely. The undisguised pressure even made the three people who were in the God Transformation Stage feel a little pressure.

The flags on the formation centers throughout the city glowed even brighter, and the white light rising into the sky grew brighter and brighter. Then they saw that, outside the formation, another layer of the same defense rose, followed by three, four, and five layers...

It took nine layers to accumulate before the surging spiritual power on the opponent's body subsided.

Three people: "..." This is not the way to wrap a quilt in winter, right?!

The three friends were all stunned. After all, Tang Qian was the city lord with a lot of experience, so he reacted after a while, and his expression was even more incredulous, "This... could it be the Nine-Turn Five Elements Defense Formation!" This is a high-level defense formation, which cannot be set up without powerful spiritual awareness and cultivation. In other words, the person in front of him is at least a high-level formation master.

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Chu has such a high level of attainment in formations?!" Wen Qi also reacted and looked at Qiu Ci in surprise.

"Well, it's okay, I know a little bit." Qiu Ci answered truthfully. When she was upgrading at the base, the main brain stuffed all the knowledge of the God Transformation Stage into her. Not to mention the formation, it also had the full set of knowledge about elixirs, talismans, formations, weapons, swords, and beasts. In a sense, she was well-rounded, but it was only limited to the elementary God Transformation Stage.

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Chu is too modest." Kang Chen also spoke up, "To be able to set up such a large formation, your attainments in formations are far from mere."

"If I had known that Fellow Daoist Chu was good at formations, I should have visited him earlier and asked him to help modify the protective formation in advance." City Lord Tang sighed and said with some regret.

"It's not too late now!" Kang Chen continued to stabilize the magic circle and said, "With this formation, Yuanhai City is safe." "Yes! With such a powerful magic circle, we will definitely be able to safely cross the Fengbo Sea."

"That's right. Even if it were several times more dangerous, there wouldn't be any problem."

"really!"

Qiu Ci: “…” No, don’t start setting flags again!
Boom!

As expected, as soon as the few people finished speaking, a loud noise was heard again from below Yuanhai City. The city, which had been stable, seemed to have been hit by a violent impact. The entire city shifted to the right again, and the city shook again.

Even the four people in the air were affected by this powerful impact and staggered unsteadily. The nine-layer barrier that originally enveloped Yuanhai City shattered in an instant with a series of cracks, and cracks appeared on the seventh layer.

The three of them were shocked and opened their eyes wide in disbelief.

Qiu Ci instantly released his spiritual sense, his face darkening. "There's something beneath the city." He then swung his hand and handed over control of the formation to City Lord Tang. "I'll leave the formation to you guys. I'll be back soon!"

After saying that, he turned around and flew at high speed towards the bottom of the city.

"Fellow Daoist Chu..." City Lord Tang also looked anxious, but he also understood that maintaining the remaining layers of the magic circle was more important, so he gritted his teeth and increased the output of spiritual power, trying his best to stabilize the magic circle.

Qiu Ci was very fast and arrived below Yuanhai City in an instant. This city was originally a huge spiritual boat. The boat body was made entirely of spiritual wood and naturally had its own protective spiritual power.

She flew all the way to the turbulent location relying on the perception of her spiritual sense, and found that the spiritual wood there had been damaged. A large hole more than ten meters wide appeared, and spiritual energy was emitting from it. There were a lot of broken wood floating around, and one could even see a few spiritual stones used for driving mixed in.

It was obvious that this big hole was created by a collision with something huge. Thinking about how the entire city had just been knocked off course twice, she couldn't help but suspect that something was attacking them nearby. However, there was clearly no breath of any living creature in the air, nor any trace of any magic. So how did this big hole come about?
Qiu Ci didn't have time to think about the reason. The most important thing now was to fill this big hole. Otherwise, not only would the strength of the magic circle be weakened, but once the defensive magic circle was broken, the entire city would fall from the sky.

She immediately made hand gestures and mobilized her spiritual power to cast the spell.

After a while, the big hole began to gather together again as if time was going backwards, and the scattered wood chips returned to their original positions and were about to close.

Sudden.

I inexplicably felt a chill on my back, and a very light buzzing sound rang in my ears.

Turning around, she saw a huge crescent-shaped white rainbow flying towards her at high speed. An inexplicable pressure suddenly came over her, and her body froze instantly, with no way to avoid it. For the first time, the fear of death arose in her heart, and she saw that the white rainbow was about to cut her in half.

Bang!
