Casually Setting Up a Formation, the Entire Audience Stunned

Outside the cave, killing intent filled the sky.

Just as Lin Feng held Qiong Xiao in his arms, enjoying the warm and soft touch, several powerful and peerless auras, like fierce tigers released from their cages, roared from the horizon, instantly locking onto this small valley.

Leading the group was an elder in a crimson daoist robe, his fiery red hair burning like flames, surrounded by rolling infernos that almost distorted the void.

This was none other than Crimson Haired Ancestor, a rogue cultivator and Golden Immortal, one of the helpers Daoist Black Tiger had invited.

Behind him followed three cultivators with equally profound auras, all of them Golden Immortals with fierce eyes, clearly ruthless individuals who lived life on the edge.

They had been invited by Daoist Black Tiger to surround and kill Fairy Qiongxiao and divide the spoils.

However, upon arriving, they sensed that a heaven-shattering battle had just occurred here. The Spiritual Energy was chaotic, the Laws were shattered, and even Daoist Black Tiger's familiar aura had become faint, eventually disappearing completely.

Their hearts sank, and they immediately accelerated their approach, only to witness a scene that made their eyes split with rage.

At the entrance of the cave, a handsome young man in plain cloth clothes, who appeared to have no magical fluctuations, was holding a peerlessly beautiful woman as if no one else were present.

The woman's Immortal Dress was stained with blood, her aura weakened to the extreme, her face as pale as paper. Was this not their target, Fairy Qiongxiao?

And Daoist Black Tiger had completely vanished!

"Daoist Black Tiger... has fallen?" A sharp-faced daoist gasped, his eyes filled with horror.

"How is that possible! Qiong Xiao is already at her limit. Who could kill Black Tiger?" Another burly man holding an iron staff roared in disbelief.

Crimson Haired Ancestor's gaze, however, was fixed intently on Lin Feng, his eyes quickly shifting from initial surprise to rage and greed.

In his opinion, Fairy Qiongxiao had clearly lost the power to resist, and Daoist Black Tiger's death was most likely due to this brat using some insidious method to launch a sneak attack when he was unprepared.

What ability could a mortal, who wasn't even an immortal, possess?

It must have been some protective Magic Treasure given by Fairy Qiongxiao!

Now that Qiong Xiao was unconscious and the Magic Treasure was not being controlled, this brat was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!

"You despicable scoundrel! How dare you take advantage of the situation to harm Daoist Black Tiger!"

Crimson Haired Ancestor roared, his voice like a thunderclap, making the entire valley hum.

"Be sensible and immediately release Fairy Qiongxiao, then kneel and beg for mercy! Perhaps I will spare your corpse, considering your youth and ignorance!"

He acted as if he had Lin Feng completely cornered, his words filled with a sense of condescending judgment.

In his mind, his furious roar was enough to scare a mortal out of their wits.

However, Lin Feng didn't even lift his eyelids.

His attention was entirely on the sleeping beauty in his arms, as if the few imposing Golden Immortals outside were merely noisy flies.

This feeling of being completely ignored instantly ignited Crimson Haired Ancestor's fury.

"You court death!"

Crimson Haired Ancestor's hair and beard bristled, and he could no longer hold back.

"Attack together! Kill this brat, and we'll split the Magic Treasures on Fairy Qiongxiao and the opportunities this brat has!"

With his order, the greedy light in the eyes of the three Golden Immortals behind him erupted simultaneously, and they instantly reached a consensus.

BOOM!

Crimson Haired Ancestor struck first, opening his mouth to spew a sea of fire. The flames were dark red, with countless wailing souls and vengeful spirits roaring and struggling within. This was his innate Spiritual Power, Nine Nether Yin Fire, which he had refined for tens of thousands of years!

This fire specialized in burning the Primordial Spirit, and was extremely vicious. Once touched, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would find it troublesome.

At the same time, the sharp-faced daoist formed hand seals, and streaks of gray tornadoes rose behind him. The winds carried countless steel needles as fine as cow hair, emitting ghostly wails as they swept towards Lin Feng.

The burly man holding the iron staff roared, his body growing to a hundred feet tall. The iron staff in his hand transformed into a sky-supporting giant pillar, carrying the terrifying power to shatter mountains, and smashed down!

The last cultivator was the most insidious. His body flickered, and he merged into the void. When he reappeared, he was behind Lin Feng, a dagger coated with potent poison in his hand, silently stabbing towards Lin Feng's back!

The combined attack of the four Golden Immortals, fueled by their rage, sealed off almost all of Lin Feng's escape routes.

Spiritual Power, Magic Treasures, physical body, and a sneak attack!

A quadruple kill. Let alone a mortal, even a late-stage Golden Immortal at their peak would have met their end on the spot!

The world-destroying power made all living beings within a hundred-mile radius tremble and prostrate themselves on the ground.

However, facing this terrifying attack that could change the heavens and earth, Lin Feng finally showed a slight reaction.

He slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the sea of fire, the wind that tore through the air, the iron staff that shattered mountains, and the poisonous dagger that was inches away.

In his eyes, there was no fear, no solemnity, only a hint of faint... annoyance.

It was as if he were admiring a beautiful painting, only to be disturbed by a few flies.

"So noisy."

Lin Feng softly uttered three words.

Then, under the astonished gazes of Crimson Haired Ancestor and the others, he made a move that no one could understand.

He raised his right hand, the one not holding Qiong Xiao, and extended his index finger and thumb.

He flicked his fingers.

The movement was casual, as if he were brushing a speck of dust off his clothes.

There were no mana fluctuations, no spiritual energy convergence, not even a trace of sound.

A barely visible speck of light shot from his fingertip, then vanished into the air.

"Putting on a show!"

Daoist Black Tiger sneered inwardly at the sight, intensifying his attack.

However, the next instant, the sinister grin on his face froze completely.

Hummm--

A strange hum, as if from the ancient Primordial World, resonated deep within everyone's soul.

Centered on Lin Feng, the world within a hundred-mile radius seemed to come alive!

The ground beneath their feet began to tremble violently, and golden patterns appeared out of nowhere, writhing like dragons and snakes, instantly outlining an array diagram of ultimate profundity!

The surrounding rocks, regardless of size, began to move on their own, changing positions, arranging and combining according to an inconceivable pattern, transforming into indestructible array bases!

The trees in the mountains swayed without wind, their branches and leaves stirring, drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, transforming into array flags that blotted out the sky!

The streams in the forest, even more so, reversed their flow, soaring into the sky, becoming rivers of energy brimming with spiritual power, running through the entire grand formation!

The sky, at this moment, became the dome of the formation.

The earth, at this moment, became the foundation of the formation.

Mountains, rivers, plants, wind, rain, thunder, lightning – everything in this world, under that single finger, had its Laws forcibly twisted, becoming a component of a peerless grand formation!

An unimaginably vast light screen, covering a hundred-mile radius and shimmering with billions of runes, rose up with a roar, enveloping Crimson Haired Ancestor and the other three Golden Immortals, along with their world-destroying attacks!

A flick of the finger, and the formation was complete!

Drawing the power of heaven and earth for his own use, transforming mountains, rivers, and all things into the array disk!

Qiong Xiao, unconscious in Lin Feng's arms, though her consciousness was unclear, her innate talent as a master of formations caused her soul to tremble violently at this moment!

Her spiritual sense clearly perceived what a terrifying, what a magnificent formation was taking shape outside.

That was not a formation that could be set up by human hands!

It was a miracle! It was the Dao!

Drawing upon heaven and earth, speaking words that became reality – this was the supreme realm of the Dao of Formations!

It was a legendary domain that she had cultivated for eons without even touching its threshold!

Let alone her, even her elder brother Zhao Gongming, renowned throughout the Primordial World for his formations, was as insignificant as a toddler learning to walk before this grand formation!

Who... who exactly was he?

What kind of existence was he?

At this moment, Qiong Xiao's last shred of humiliation, her final trace of unwillingness, completely vanished.

In its place was a sense of relief from the depths of her soul, and an unparalleled ecstasy!

To follow such an existence, even as a mere maidservant, was an supreme opportunity that could not be cultivated in three lifetimes!

And within the formation, Crimson Haired Ancestor and the others were utterly dumbfounded.

Their world-destroying attacks, landing on that thin light screen, were like mud cows entering the sea, not even stirring a ripple before being instantly decomposed and vanishing into nothingness.

"What... what the hell is this thing!"

The sharp-mouthed, monkey-faced Daoist let out a terrified scream. His grey protective winds were swallowed by a spatial rift that appeared out of nowhere, disappearing without a trace.

"My Sky-Piercing Pillar!"

The burly man was even more terrified. His iron staff, capable of shattering mountains, was entangled by a seemingly fragile blade of grass. No matter how he channeled his mana, it wouldn't budge, as if suppressed by an ancient divine mountain.

The assassin who had merged with the void had the most tragic fate.

The space around him suddenly solidified, forcibly squeezing him out of the void. Before he could react, a falling leaf, like the sharpest immortal sword in the world, silently sliced across his neck.

A perfectly good head shot up into the sky!

His Primordial Spirit had barely left his body when it was struck by an invisible ripple in the air, annihilating it on the spot.

One leaf, to slay a Golden Immortal!

"No! No! This is impossible!"

Crimson Haired Ancestor had completely descended into madness and fear.

He discovered that he was trapped in a death trap.

Here, his Spiritual Power was useless, his mana infinitely suppressed.

And all around, endless killing intent arose.

A stone beneath his feet would suddenly transform into a destructive star, smashing towards him.

A wisp of breeze by his side would suddenly become a blade capable of tearing space, slashing at his Primordial Spirit.

He resisted with all his might, only to watch helplessly as the wounds on his body increased, and his mana was depleted faster and faster.

They finally understood.

This seemingly mortal youth was no pushover; he was an unfathomably profound master of formations, someone they couldn't even dream of looking up to!

They had provoked a god or demon walking among mortals!

"Senior! Senior, spare us!"

"We were blind and didn't recognize your greatness, we deserve to die!"

"Please, senior, spare our lives for the sake of our difficult cultivation journey!"

Cries for mercy and wails echoed throughout the grand formation.

However, outside the formation, Lin Feng merely frowned in distaste.

He glanced down at Qiong Xiao in his arms, whose brow was furrowed by the noise, and a thought crossed his mind.

Hum!

The entire grand formation flashed with light, and all sounds were instantly isolated.

The world was finally quiet.
