After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

"Now, I have a battle formation technique called the Six Harmonies Mystic Weapon Formation, which is a superior battle formation technique."

Now I will teach you, and after you have learned it, you can then teach other disciples.

Upon hearing this, the core disciples' eyes immediately lit up.

In the Hehuan Sect today, everyone knows an ironclad rule—following Lin Shengzi will definitely boost your strength!

Every cultivation technique and elixir that flowed from his hands was a treasure among treasures.

Hearing that Lin Fengmian was going to personally teach them battle formation techniques, everyone was filled with excitement and anticipation, and shouted in unison:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lin Fengmian nodded slightly as he looked at the high morale of the crowd.

He said no more and began to teach directly.

He first explained the basic principles of the formation, then demonstrated the positioning, spiritual energy circulation path, and offensive/defensive rhythm of the Six Harmonies Formation. His explanation was both in-depth and easy to understand.

He then broke down the key techniques and explained them in great detail, making the teaching extremely efficient.

In less than half a day, the one hundred core disciples had mastered all the essentials of the battle formation.

Lin Fengmian had them practice several times on the spot, and after confirming that there were no problems, he instructed them to immediately go and teach their respective disciples.

"Within three days, I require all of your disciples to be proficient in forming formations!"

"yes!"

The core disciples accepted the order and left, each carrying their own excitement and enthusiasm.

Lin Fengmian watched them leave without taking a break.

He re-entered the jade pendant space and began preparing talismans and pills.

Within the Frozen Ice Cave, the medicinal herbs in the spirit field had already flourished under the care of the little earth spirit. Lin Fengmian picked the mature herbs one by one.

He then took out a large amount of talisman materials from his storage bag and piled them under the willow tree.

He sat cross-legged and first took out a stack of blank talisman papers, spreading them out in front of him.

"The most important thing now is to reduce the number of our disciples killed or wounded."

Lin Fengmian's mind raced, but his hands never stopped moving. He picked up his spirit brush, dipped it in the blood ink of the demonic beast, and his wrist moved with lightning speed.

Mysterious runes quickly took shape on the talisman paper.

What he drew was an extremely rare second-tier top-grade talisman—the Substitute Talisman.

This kind of talisman does not need to be activated; it will automatically activate once the cultivator injects a wisp of their essence blood into it.

If a cultivator encounters mortal danger, the talisman will instantly teleport the master back to a preset safe location, essentially giving them an extra life.

This kind of talisman is extremely difficult to draw; a typical second-tier talisman master would be considered good if they could draw one out of ten.

But with the blessing of the willow tree, Lin Fengmian's success rate in painting reached almost 70%!

One, two, ten, fifty...

His brushstrokes flowed like dragons and snakes, his mind completely focused, and the finished talismans beside him piled higher and higher.

At the same time, he diverted some of his attention to control the Azure Flame Qilin Furnace to begin refining pills.

This time, he refined a third-tier pill called "Bloodlust Pill".

This elixir uses blood dragon fruit as its main ingredient, supplemented with more than ten kinds of precious spiritual herbs. After a cultivator takes it, he or she can forcibly raise his or her cultivation level by one small realm within a quarter of an hour, and the side effects are negligible.

This elixir was a formula he obtained from Li Cheng, originally intended as a trump card to turn the tide in desperate situations.

This is the perfect time to distribute it to core disciples as a trump card for defeating stronger opponents.

Flames flickered and billowed in the alchemy furnace, filling the air with the fragrance of medicine.

Lin Fengmian was able to multitask, drawing talismans with his left hand and controlling the alchemy furnace with his right, and with the blessing of the willow tree, he showed no signs of panic.

Time flew by in the space of the jade pendant.

By the time he finished refining three hundred substitute talismans and a total of five hundred Bloodlust Pills, only one day and one night had passed in the outside world.

Lin Fengmian let out a long breath and put the talisman and pill into the jade box and jade bottle respectively.

He flashed and left the jade pendant space again.

On the training ground, the one hundred core disciples had already assembled with their respective subordinate cultivators.

After several days of training, they were neatly arranged and their breathing was synchronized. Although they were not yet perfect, they already had the imposing presence of a rudimentary battle formation.

Lin Fengmian walked up to the crowd and glanced at the sea of ​​heads below.

Without uttering any unnecessary words, he waved his hand, and several jade bottles and boxes floated in the air. The stoppers were opened, and a rich medicinal fragrance mixed with a faint scent of blood permeated the air.

"This pill is called the Bloodlust Pill!" Lin Fengmian's voice clearly resounded throughout the entire venue. "It is a product of my painstaking efforts to improve upon, using Blood Dragon Fruit as the main ingredient."

After taking it, your cultivation will be forcibly raised by one small realm within fifteen minutes, with negligible side effects!

"Each of you, take two! These aren't pills to make you show off, but to send you to your deaths in dire straits! They're your life-saving charms, but also the enemy's death warrant!"

He paused, then pointed to the jade boxes filled with talismans:

"And these too—second-tier top-grade substitute talismans. One for each person, to be carried after being infused with essence blood."

In the event of mortal danger, it will automatically teleport you back into the grand formation. With it, you essentially have an extra life!

Upon hearing this, a deafening cheer erupted from below!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Following the Holy Son, you'll never suffer a loss!"

"With these treasures, I can trade one of my lives for three of theirs!"

The disciples, their eyes burning with fervor, stepped forward without hesitation to receive the pills and talismans. They trusted Lin Fengmian, and even more so, they trusted everything he offered.

Lin Fengmian watched this scene and nodded inwardly.

Morale is available.

He raised his hand, signaling for silence, and spoke in a clear voice:

"Gentlemen, you must remember this—we are making all these preparations today not out of fear of death, but to achieve the greatest victory with the least cost!"

War is not child's play, but as long as we can win, all sacrifices are worthwhile!

"Now, everyone return to your positions and begin battle drills, awaiting the enemy's arrival!"

"yes!"

The disciples responded in unison, their voices rising like a tidal wave.

……

Meanwhile, outside the protective array of the Hehuan Sect, night was falling.

Xiong Tian, ​​the Great General of the Great Yan Dynasty, was leading the allied forces of the Nine Sects to arrive outside the mountain gate in a grand procession.

Five thousand cultivators densely covered the plain in front of the mountain, their banners fluttering, their beasts howling, and the pressure of spiritual energy crashing against the protective array of the Hehuan Sect like a tangible wave.

Xiong Tian sat upright on the back of the ferocious beast, his gaze sharp as lightning, sweeping over the great array before him, which was shimmering with spiritual light.

He had been studying it for several hours, but still couldn't find a way to break the formation.

This Yin-Yang Five Elements Celestial Array truly lives up to its reputation as a level four array; its offense and defense are perfectly integrated, a natural masterpiece. A powerful attack?

Each attack was largely neutralized by the array's power of elemental transformation; a clever way to break it? The array master he brought studied it for a long time, but couldn't even figure out where the array's core was.

"Listen up, all disciples of the Hehuan Sect!"

Xiong Tian's patience finally ran out, and his voice, booming like a bell, carrying spiritual power, resounded throughout the surrounding area:
