Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 301: Third-Level Formation
After the meeting, everyone returned to their respective teams and conveyed the content. The spirit ship passed through the clouds and fog and soon arrived near Mount Yagi.

Everyone looked out from the bow of the ship and saw that the entire mountain was covered in thick yellow smoke.

At Hornet's command, everyone jumped off the spirit ship. According to the previous deployment, the first, fourth and seventh teams arrived at the east side of Yagi Mountain. According to the plan, each team entered the formation in a ladder shape.

The first team is in the front, the fourth team follows one hundred feet behind it, and the seventh pair follows one hundred feet behind the fourth team.

Everyone lined up in formation, their expressions solemn, waiting for the Beastmaster Sect's order.

"Senior Brother Lin, we have three hundred people attacking the formation, but why didn't the Beast Taming Sect send a Foundation Establishment cultivator to lead us? This is too much of a dissatisfaction." Lin Quan was standing next to Alan Lam, frowning in dissatisfaction.

Lin Zixiang thought that there was no better way. This way he could act according to the circumstances. If there were any foundation-building cultivators from the Beast Taming Sect nearby, he would be restricted by them. However, he glanced at the four Beast Taming Sect disciples who were supervising him not far away, and in the end he did not say anything, but just responded lightly.

"The Beastmaster Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivators are all concentrated in the First Brigade. They are the main force. We are here to assist, feinting an attack on the main formation and distracting the Yunxuan Sect's defenses. Naturally, there is no need for Foundation Establishment cultivators to take command."

Zhang Yi's expression was solemn, and he lowered his voice. "This third-level formation is undoubtedly extremely powerful. It's impossible for us to break it with our strength. The Beastmaster Sect is just using us as a distraction, so they don't care about our lives. Once we enter the formation, everyone should be careful. Saving your lives is the most important thing."

"Junior Brother Zhang is right. It's important to take care of yourself..."

As time passed, around noon, there was a loud bang, and a gorgeous firework flashed in the sky. At the same time, the spirit ship made a humming sound, which was the signal for an attack.

Everyone entered the formation shrouded in yellow fog one after another. After entering the inner room, they saw a faint yellow smoke floating in the sky and earth as far as they could see.

All the monks have taken out their magic tools, and are either casting spells or using talismans to form shields to protect themselves. George Lam and the others followed at the end of the group, moving forward step by step as the team in front did.

The team of 300 people was silent, everyone held their breath, as if they were walking in a secret passage full of traps, not daring to breathe.

As they were walking, suddenly, the sky covered by dark yellow smoke became bright, and blazing flames appeared out of nowhere, transforming into giant dragons that rushed towards them from all directions.

"The ban has been activated."

"It's a fire attribute attack."

"Be careful."

"Here they come."

The team, which was originally silent, suddenly became excited as if stimulated by something. Everyone shouted at each other, and the voices rose one after another.

"Junior Brother Zhang Yi, you lead the third and fourth teams to take charge of the left wing."

"Junior Brother Lin Quan, you will lead the fifth and sixth teams to take charge of the right wing."

"Fellow Daoist Meng Xing, you guys take charge of the front."

"Dolph, you lead the seventh and eighth teams to provide support at any time."

In order to prevent everyone from being attacked by the forbidden system and disrupting the formation, George Lam shouted loudly and directed each team to deploy defenses.

The 100 cultivators in the seventh team were now divided into ten teams of ten. Among them, Meng from Tianyu Trading Company was in charge of the ninth and tenth teams because the twenty cultivators in his team were all members of Tianyu Trading Company.

After entering the formation, everyone advanced in a square formation. Zhang Yi led two teams on the left, and Lin Quan led two teams on the right. Each team was ten feet apart as agreed before.

When several people heard Lin Zixiang's call, they all responded yes.

"Gao Jian, Xu Yong, and Zhang Zihua, condense water-attribute spells to attack the incoming fire dragon. Chen Ziyang, Zhang Yunlong, and Fan Yuan, use your magical weapons to assist the three of you in your attacks. The rest of you, center around me and condense defensive spells to protect the others."

George Lam walked alongside the first team. After directing the others, he told the team members to get ready.

Dozens of huge fire dragons came roaring, like a wriggling group of snakes, each one was ten feet in size, swooping down from the sky and rushing towards the crowd.

In each team, ripples of water and icicles rose up, and the light of various magical instruments greeted the oncoming fire dragon. There was no sound of any collision, only a large amount of mist produced by the fusion of water and fire.

"Be careful, the fire dragon is coming."

"Pay attention to the array."

"Use water-attribute magic talismans."

.........

The place was filled with chaotic voices. Although each team organized themselves to fight back, they could not stop the fire dragon's attack.

The power of each of these condensed fire dragons can reach the level of a second-grade lower-grade spell. Dozens of fire dragons are overwhelming, and the spells of these Qi-refining monks are simply unable to compete with them.

Soon, groups of fire dragons approached, and in an instant, the directions of each team turned into a sea of ​​fire.

In the raging flames, each team put up a tenacious resistance, and various spells were condensed one after another.

"Dolph, you lead the ninth team to support Fellow Daoist Meng and the others." Seeing that the defensive shields condensed by Meng Xing's two teams had been shattered several times under the impact of the fire dragons, and it seemed that they were about to collapse, Lin Zixiang immediately gave the order.

The two teams led by Meng Xing were all cultivators from the Tianyu Trading Company. They were relatively weak. Not only was the average cultivation level of their members low, but they also had no suitable magical weapons and not many talismans.

Unlike the people in Hunyuan Sect, before setting off, each of them was given a suitable magical instrument and carried several talismans with them. This was because the sect had sufficient financial resources. Hunyuan Sect would add a batch of magical instruments and talismans to the treasury every year to prepare for emergencies.

Under normal circumstances, George Lam would not care about the life or death of the monks from Tianyu Trading Company, but at this moment everyone is on the same boat. If they cannot withstand the attack of the fire dragon condensed by the restriction, a gap will appear in the formation, and the other teams will be under greater pressure.

Dolph responded and led ten Hunyuan Sect disciples to Meng Xing and others. The twenty monks in his team gathered together and condensed layers of defensive shields to cover them.

Under the roar of the fire dragon and the impact of the fire waves, layers of shields melted visibly to the naked eye.

At Dolph's command, ten Hunyuan Sect monks used their magic and magical weapons to attack the fire dragon.

With the addition of ten new recruits, the pressure on Meng Xing and the others was immediately reduced. Lin Zixiang kept a close eye on the surrounding teams, directing and directing the actions of the others. As time passed, the fire dragons condensed by the restrictions were successively destroyed by the various teams.

Although this wave of forbidden attacks was quite powerful, it was still not so easy to defeat the 300-member Qi-refining team that was well-organized and united.

After the forbidden attack dissipated, the captains of the first, fourth, and seventh teams gathered together to inform each other of the casualties of each team.

The leader of the first team was Chen Yu, a disciple of the Luoyun Sect. He looked at the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect who were supervising the battle and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, everyone's spiritual energy has been greatly depleted. How about we recover our spiritual energy first before moving forward?"

The coverage area of ​​the third-level formation can reach up to 20 to 30 miles. Everyone had just entered the formation and had not walked two or three miles when they encountered such a powerful formation restriction attack. The road ahead was uncertain, and everyone felt a little uneasy and began to retreat.

“No, this is inside a formation, who knows when the next wave of restricted attacks will be launched.

Once you enter the formation, there's no turning back. You must keep moving forward until you break through it." The Beastmaster disciple refused without a second thought.

Lin Zixiang echoed, "But if we continue forward in this state, we might not be able to withstand another powerful attack from the forbidden zone."

"Fellow Daoists, please don't forget that we are not the only three teams that have entered the formation. There are other coalition forces to the south, west, and north. If we stagnate, the teams in the other three directions will suffer more attacks from the restrictions. When the time comes, we will not be able to escape responsibility."

The three captains looked at each other and had no choice but to return to their respective teams and command them to move forward.

A distance of twenty or thirty miles is not very far for cultivators, but within the restriction of this formation, everyone is extremely cautious and has to maintain the formation, so they move slowly.

Not long after, there was a loud rumbling sound and everyone stopped in their tracks. They saw rows of huge golden feather arrows piercing down from the sky above the yellow smoke, blocking out the sun.

"Another forbidden attack."

"It's a metallic attack."

"Form a formation and block it."

Shouts rang out in each team, and the sky was filled with golden feather arrows, covering the entire sky. Looking around, it seemed as if the sky above had turned into a golden ocean.

The golden light emitted by countless feather arrows was so bright that people could hardly open their eyes.

George Lam shouted loudly, commanding the troops to form a battle array. Everyone used magic to protect themselves or to fight against the golden feather arrows in the sky.

For a moment, the sound of metal clashing with stone resounded throughout heaven and earth.

Each of the golden feather arrows in the sky was several feet in size, and was glowing with dazzling golden light. They were arranged in rows and rows like an army, with an extremely powerful momentum. Just looking at the posture, it was much stronger than the fire dragon attack condensed by the previous formation restriction.

Huge golden feather arrows shot down one after another, covering the sky and hitting the defensive shields formed by each team.

"Ah!" Screams rang out one after another. The defensive shields of some teams were broken, and the golden feather arrows pierced through the bodies of many people in an instant.

Individually, these golden feather arrows may not be as powerful as the fire dragons, but there are so many of them that at a glance, there are thousands of them.

When they came one after another, the defensive shields of some weaker teams could not withstand such high-intensity attacks. In an instant, wailing, roaring, and screaming rang out one after another.

At the same time, several other teams from Yagiyama were also attacked fiercely by the formation restrictions, resulting in heavy casualties.

.........

On the north side of Mount Yagi, several teams of the Beast Taming Sect formed a battle formation, facing the magma gushing out like a river. Dozens of monks sat cross-legged on the periphery, forming a circle, each with a small golden flag beside them.

As everyone formed seals with their hands, dozens of small golden flags burst into dazzling light. Rays of golden light shot up into the sky and connected with each other, forming a huge golden protective shield that enveloped everyone. Golden runes surged on the golden shield.

This is a simple and secret formation made by the Beast Taming Sect. The disciples of the Beast Taming Sect all have special runes engraved on their bodies in advance. As long as they mobilize their spiritual power, they can activate the formation flags and bring out the effectiveness of the formation.

Although its power is much smaller than that of traditional formations, it is light and flexible, and uses human spiritual power as a medium, so it can be performed anytime and anywhere. Its effect is much stronger than the defensive spells performed by individuals, and it is specially prepared for large-scale battles such as field battles and sieges.

The magma, surging like a surging river, rushed onto the golden defensive shield, making a hissing sound.

The magma surged like the sea, hitting the condensed golden round shield wave after wave. The runes of the golden protective shield shattered one after another, and the magma melted visibly to the naked eye.

When the two were in a stalemate, several foundation-building monks led the crowd to attack at the same time, and various water-based spells condensed and rushed towards the magma.

Not until the overwhelming magma completely melted away did the dozens of Beast Taming Sect disciples put away their formation flags. In an instant, the golden protective shield that enveloped everyone shattered.

At a command from the leading Beast Taming Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivator, everyone maintained their formation and moved forward. After walking for less than a few miles, they saw a group of Yunxuan Sect cultivators standing quietly not far away.

Those disciples of Yun Xuanzong formed a triangle shape in groups of three, each standing with their backs to each other. The ground under their feet was a triangular pattern engraved with intricate runes, and the runes flowed like water.

There were a total of thirty-six Yun Xuanzong monks, divided into twelve groups. Each group of three stood on a triangular pattern with their backs to each other, and each group of three stood on a large triangular pattern.

"It's the Three Elements Wheel Formation." A foundation-building cultivator from the Beast Taming Sect recognized the formation pattern under the feet of Yun Xuanzong and his men at a glance. It was a miniature of the larger formation. The cultivators in it could not only enhance the power of their gold, fire, and earth attribute spells, but also recover their lost spiritual energy.

"At this point, there is no other choice." The leading man from the Beast Taming Sect waved his hand, and dozens of disciples on the outermost side immediately took out the formation flags and stuck them on the ground. Then they formed seals with their hands and condensed into a golden protective shield again.

Those disciples of the Yun Xuan Sect naturally also saw the people from the Beast Taming Sect entering the formation. The leading disciple of the Yun Xuan Sect gave a light shout, and everyone's spiritual power poured into the formation pattern under their feet. In an instant, the formation pattern under their feet burst into dazzling light, with golden, red and yellow lights constantly rotating.

The disciples of Yun Xuanzong who were in the formation did not move their feet, but their bodies moved with the rotation of the formation diagram. It seemed that dozens of disciples of Yun Xuanzong were constantly turning in circles, and their bodies kept changing positions.

At the same time, fire dragons, golden spears, and huge rocks condensed and attacked the people of the Beast Taming Sect.

On the other side, the people of the Beast Taming Sect were protected by a golden defensive shield and were also using magic to attack Yun Xuanzong.

The two sides were like two armies fighting each other, with the monks on both sides guarding their own cities and continuously attacking the other city.

Various magic techniques continued to intertwine and collide in the air, and the loud rumbling sounds shook the earth.
