More precisely, Yu Ci had thought of Linggang Mountain not long ago.
Not long before, at Linggang Mountain, tens of thousands of sword cultivators had exerted themselves through a sword formation, merging into the Spirit Net Sword Diagram. The resonance of the Sword Garden's lingering legacy had been the best example Yu Ci had seen of integrating massive manpower into an effective attack.
It gave Yu Ci an excellent reminder.

Yu Ci had once "seen" the mysteries within. Leaving aside everything else, the arrangements of formations and auras alone held great reference value. They were also the foundation for forming a combined force.
Yet judging solely from the earlier example of the "triangular resonance," Yu Ci believed the key to success—
lay more in Ye Banshan's leadership;
in the heroic verse from Xin Jiaxuan, many tribulations ago: "A sword must span ten thousand miles, leaning against the heavens";
