Border Army Battle Formation
Li Weiyi was well aware of his own strength and remained clear-headed, not easily deceived by his words. He stood calmly on the water and laughed, "The Border Army Battle Formation is very strong; I am no match for them. However, maintaining your battle formation must have greatly depleted your magical energy, right? I'll fight you after you've exhausted your magical energy."
This statement also points out another weakness of the Combined Battle Formation: its slow movement speed.
As long as Li Weiyi prevents them from getting close, his hit-and-run tactics will be enough to wear them down.
This is a psychological battle!
Because with the strength of the six from the Demon Kingdom, even without forming a battle formation, they were confident they could capture Li Weiyi if they joined forces. They were not the Demon Race mob of the demon race who fought individually. But killing Li Weiyi would definitely come at the cost of two or three lives.
Pointing out their weaknesses is to force them to disengage and make them back down.
"The Sentinel Spirit Army's garrison is under attack by the Taiyin Sect and the Netherworld of the Departed. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold out for long." Xue Sanguan also pointed out Li Weiyi's weakness in the situation, to show that he was not inferior in mind.
"Then I thank my friends from the Demon Kingdom for accompanying me to defeat the great enemy, the undead."
Li Weiyi leaped across the water, disappearing into the forest on the opposite bank in a few bounds, heading towards the Sentinel Spirit Army's encampment.
There's no spatial teleportation; it consumes too much magical energy.
"Once he clashes with experts from the Taiyin Sect and the Netherworld of the Departed, he will find it difficult to escape. We must kill him today; we cannot allow him to continue hiding and attempt to break through to the Peak Third Realm, or he will truly become a great threat."
A smile crept across Xue Sanguan's lips, his eyes sharp, as he and the five border army experts maintained their combined attack formation and gave chase.
All the Longevity Realm Martial Cultivator in the Dao Palace could see that Li Weiyi was in a precarious situation and could predict how things would develop.
Even Gu Zhenxiang, in such a situation, might not be able to escape unscathed.
The Purple-clothed Woman said, "Li Weiyi has no weakness in cultivation, but he does have a weakness in humanity. If it were Gu Zhenxiang or Chu Yutian, this Xue Sanguan move would be useless."
"I think this is the brilliance of humanity! People like Gu Zhenxiang, who are aloof and indifferent, and Chu Yutian, who are selfish and perverted, I certainly wouldn't dare to get close to them, and I can't appreciate them at all," Wu Hongling said.
The Purple-clothed Woman glanced at her. "I think you're about to take a joke seriously! A prodigy like Li Weiyi must have devoted most of his emotions to martial arts. It won't be that easy to touch his heart."
"I'm not interested in simple things!" Wu Hongling retorted to her sister's words.
Li Weiyi moved through the forest shrouded in the Netherworld Blue Mist, his senses extended outward, his ears able to hear in all directions, allowing him to discern all kinds of dangerous enemies, both overt and covert.
In reality, he did not believe that the strength of the Netherworld of the Departed in Chun City was enough to break through the Sentinel Spirit Army's garrison. He merely wanted to lure the Demon Kingdom's Border Army Battle Formation into the forest and use the complex terrain to weaken their advantage.
"They're here!"
In Li Weiyi's perception, an aura was rapidly approaching from the direction of the Sentinel Spirit Army's garrison, already four or five miles away.
Its aura is very strong, far surpassing that of the Six-Colored Peacock.
Li Weiyi immediately changed direction and headed towards the direction of time.
It exudes the grandeur of time and possesses eternal radiance, wielding a mysterious energy that influences time and space; it could never be something of this world.
From a distance, Li Weiyi estimated that it was a planet about 100 miles in diameter, a perfectly round sphere, without any impact craters, but with ridges, cracks, and basins.
Chun City was built around it, forming a giant city with a circular layout.
The waterway, spanning several miles in width, divides Chun City from east to west, extending all the way down into the past. There lies a vast, hundreds-of-miles-long marshland, with bright puddles, dark low mountains, and a pervasive mist, from which rivers of radiant light extend.
On some low hills, there are still ancient and dilapidated buildings, archways, palaces, and ancient pavilions, which appear vast and mysterious in the misty waters. They existed 20,000 years ago and once enjoyed glory and prosperity.
The scene was truly breathtaking and aroused a desire to explore.
The legendary Chinese Great Spring tree once grew there.
Li Weiyi rushed out of a dense forest of ancient trees, the Wind Force carrying many fallen leaves, and immediately stopped.
On the hilltop ahead, Luo Yinji stood gracefully, her figure slender and full-figured, holding an umbrella. The bright moon behind her completely enveloped her, making her appear like a fairy of the moon.
Li Weiyi remained calm and asked with a smile, "May I ask why Miss Luo can always predict my route? What if I were heading out of the city? Wouldn't you have waited in vain?"
Beneath her veil, Luo Yinji's lips parted slightly. "The closer we get to the end of time, the more complex the environment becomes, and the more advantageous it is for you. Now that your cultivation has broken through and your confidence has greatly increased, how could you possibly flee the city? You must use the terrain to find an opportunity to counterattack the enemy and completely eliminate... sigh..."
Before she could finish speaking, Li Weiyi had already unleashed the Purple Sky Lei Seal.
Luo Yinji ranks first among the Taiyin Envoy, and even when she clashed with Tang Wanzhou, who was in the Early Third Realm, she only lost by a point or two. She is many levels above the Six-Colored Peacock.
Facing Tang Wanzhou, who was at the Early Third Realm, the Six-Colored Peacock would be remarkable if it could withstand a few sword strikes. Just like those at the same realm who could withstand two or three moves from Gu Zhenxiang and not die, they regarded it as a source of pride and glory, and could use it to become famous throughout the world.
The scales of the top scholar do not weigh the mediocre.
Luo Yinji dared not take the Purple Sky Lei Seal head-on. Her body flashed with scriptures, and she disappeared behind the hill.
"Boom!"
The Purple Sky Lei Seal struck, causing the top of the hill to sink several feet.
Lightning spread across the entire mountainside, like a net of light covering it.
"Li Weiyi, if you use the power of the Myriad-character Artifact like this, I'm afraid your magical energy will be exhausted soon." Luo Yinji's vast voice seemed to come from afar and then reappear, rising and falling, making one wonder if she had disappeared underground.
"Rustle!"
Behind them, a dense forest of inky, Ghost Qi mist surged forth.
Taking advantage of the instant Li Weiyi unleashed the Purple Sky Lei Seal, the Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis, amidst the Ghost Qi mist, shot out his Vajra Pestle like an arrow.
Top experts all know how to seize opportunities.
The vajra is about two feet long, with a sharp spear at one end and a bizarre Buddha image with three heads: a human, a pig, and a lion, at the other end.
After it flew out, it emitted a dense cacophony of sharp, piercing cries, the sounds of humans, pigs, and lions, capable of influencing the soul. Countless Buddhist figures followed behind it, as if all the gods and Buddhas in the heavens were attacking together to subdue Li Weiyi.
The Four-Eared Ghost Marquis possesses the qualifications to participate in the siege of Bai Chuan, the number one expert of the Sword Dao Imperial Court, so his background is naturally extraordinary and related to the Buddha's corpse in the Ancient Ye City.
Among the marquises of the Ancient Ye City, it ranks second in combat power, second only to Bai Ye Qinglian.
The Vajra's trajectory was unpredictable, and Li Weiyi knew very well that if he dodged, he would be at a disadvantage of constantly dodging. Therefore, he shifted his position, Swastika Symbol Imprint appeared on his left palm, and he used the Spirit Treasure Seizing.
He was like a thousand-armed Buddha, his countless hand shadows and the rotating energy in his palms suppressing the power of the vajra and pressing it down to the ground.
They were about to seize it.
The true form of the Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis had arrived. He mobilized the power of countless Buddhist shadows and unleashed a palm strike with overwhelming force, like a divine mountain pressing down. The booming sound was incessant, and the palm wind was deafening.
Li Weiyi was prepared. The Yellow Dragon Sword in his right hand flew out and transformed into a yellow dragon with its head raised and claws extended, colliding with the sword.
"Boom!"
The Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis let out a strange cry and retreated, not daring to touch the Yellow Dragon Sword, quickly dodging. "His sword definitely has a story behind it, just as the rumors say, it's not to be touched. He has such Divine Weapons and Sharp Tools that can restrain the dead, it won't be easy to fight him!"
Luo Yinji gracefully rose from behind the hill, a beam of light from her finger piercing the night sky.
The vajra was still spinning rapidly, so Li Weiyi had no choice but to give up trying to retrieve it and instead swung it at Luo Yinji.
What struck was not only the vajra, but also the Swastika Symbol Imprint on the palm.
The vajra was struck by the energy wave from the finger and flew off to the side with a thud.
The Swastika Symbol Imprint transformed into a shield, spinning rapidly, shattering the light waves from the finger strikes, and hurtling towards Luo Yinji.
Li Weiyi sensed that the six top experts of the Demon Kingdom were rapidly approaching. Therefore, instead of engaging in a prolonged battle with the Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis and Luo Yinji, he rode the Yellow Dragon Sword and the Purple Sky Lei Seal towards Chunze.
The Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis retrieved his Vajra Pestle and watched Li Weiyi depart. He said, "I have a feeling this kid was specially trained by some old monster to deal with the Netherworld of the Departed. He's covered in thorns. I didn't feel this danger when he fought Bai Chuan. Should we leave him with Chu Yutian?"
Luo Yinji looked at the demonic cloud rushing out of the forest. "Someone seems to want to deal with him even more than we do. How interesting. Let's sit back and watch the tigers fight, and find the best opportunity. Fellow demons, Li Weiyi is a huge threat. We will definitely stand on your side until he dies. There's no need to be wary of us. Go all out."
Xue Sanguan gave them a cold stare, knowing they wanted to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, so he decided to play along. "Then help us restrain him first."
"OK!"
Luo Yinji and the Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis flashed out like two streaks of light, one on the left and one on the right.
After passing through the city and dense forest, Li Weiyi entered Chunze.
The aura of the underworld dissipated, and the field of vision became incredibly wide open.
He landed atop a stone pillar of a memorial archway atop a desolate hill, his extraordinary bearing rivaling the brilliance of the moon. His voice resounded throughout heaven and earth. "Xue Sanguan, you joined forces with the Taiyin Sect and the Netherworld of the Departed to deal with the Sentinel Spirit Army. Do you think the Demon Country Crown Prince can protect you?"
Xue Sanguan did not respond, knowing full well that the right to interpret the situation lay with the victor. "Hand over Heaven Spirit Cub, and I will leave immediately. Otherwise, the Demon Kingdom will certainly seek justice for you."
"Aren't you afraid that I possess a life-saving technique bestowed by the Great Palace Master?" Li Weiyi said quietly.
A powerful border guard from the Demon Kingdom said, "If you truly possessed any formidable abilities, why would you have jumped into the sacrificial pit? Your repeated threats are no different from those of the other Demon Cultivator; they have exposed your deep-seated fear."
"You are indeed extremely intelligent."
Li Weiyi continued forward.
With the help of Luo Yinji and the Four-eared Ghost Monkey Marquis, the six top experts of the Demon Kingdom caught up with Li Weiyi, and the battle formation was quickly deployed, with the Formation Disk reaching a diameter of a hundred feet, trapping him.
Li Weiyi unleashed a powerful sword strike, attempting to break through the formation and escape.
A skilled border guard intercepted them, brandishing his halberd.
The Formation Disk transferred the magical energy and Longevity Scriptures of the other five experts to him. Instantly, the battle might of this border army expert rose steadily, as if he had transformed into a war god, and he pushed Li Weiyi back.
Luo Yinji and the Four-Eared Ghost Monkey stood on the left and right sides of the battle formation, their eyes blazing as they intently watched the situation unfold.
If Li Weiyi has any chance of breaking through and escaping, the two of them will immediately take action and drive him back.
