Mid Heaven Grade Spiritual Formation Grandmaster!
"What did you say? You said you won? Hahaha, are you trying to make me laugh to death? Can't you see? In this continuous battle, your energy expenditure has consistently been higher than mine!"
Don't forget, you're only Seven-Star Dou Saint, while I'm an eight-star!
When Shi Lingdao said those words, it seemed more like he was trying to hide his inner unease.
Because, in his eyes, Xiao Lin was too calm.
That calm smile, so composed it seemed to control everything, made it impossible for him to ignore.
However, Shi Lingdao couldn't fathom how Xiao Lin could possibly turn the tide under these circumstances.
The two were evenly matched in their Spirit Array Master mastery and soul realm, but he had a slight edge in Dou Qi cultivation!
In this situation, it seems he has the advantage, doesn't it?
Of course, if Xiao Lin is indeed as Shi Lingdao thinks...
"That doesn't matter anymore, because I've already surpassed you!"
Xiao Lin suddenly grinned and said...
"Surpass me? Hahaha, what are you talking about? You're still only Mid-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint! Besides, so what if you break through to the Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint? I'm Eight-Star Dou Sheng!"
Upon hearing Xiao Lin say that he had surpassed him, Shi Lingdao burst into arrogant laughter once again.
Is he blind?
At this moment, his Heaven Realm Great Perfection Soul Power truly sensed that Xiao Lin was still Mid-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint!
"Hmm? When I said surpassing, I didn't mean in terms of Dou Qi cultivation! Besides, even if my Dou Qi cultivation broke through, or even surpassed your current level, I could at most defeat you, but I wouldn't be able to capture you. I'm clear about that."
Yes, just as Xiao Lin said, as long as he doesn't break through to the Nine-Star Dou Saint, even if he reaches the late eight-star level, Xiao Lin can't do anything to Shi Lingdao if he wants to escape.
It's easy for Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng to defeat Early Eight-Star Dou Saint, but it's obviously impossible to forcibly capture them!
Xiao Lin clearly wanted to eliminate the soul born within Shi Lingdao's body in one fell swoop, and had no intention of letting the tiger return to the mountain.
Their presence is too dangerous!
It's important to know that Shi Lingdao's predecessor was Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint with Emperor Soul and High Heaven Grade Spiritual Formation Grandmaster!
In other words, given time, Shi Lingdao has a high chance of recovering to his former peak.
At that time, the opponent will grow into an enemy even more terrifying than the Hun Tiandi!
Furthermore, the soul within Shi Lingdao's body, born from the corruption, is filled with all sorts of negative emotions.
Hun Tiandi, after all, only considered sacrificing himself to the Central Plains in order to refine the Emperor Slaying Blade after he had become a Dou Emperor.
But once Shi Lingdao escapes his predicament and returns to his peak, the enemy might just destroy him for the sake of destruction.
Such a being is far too dangerous!
It must be nipped in the bud.
Furthermore, they must annihilate the enemy in one strike!
Otherwise, if the other party is given the opportunity, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As the current Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, inheriting the kindness of his own teacher and the plea of that fused soul, Xiao Lin felt it was his responsibility to resolve the potential threat that Shi Lingdao might pose to the Dou Qi Continent!
Why did Xiao Lin dare to directly confront Shi Lingdao?
That's because he was absolutely certain!
After all, he doesn't have a masochistic streak.
At the same time, since Xiao Lin had made it so clear, how could Shi Lingdao not understand what he meant?
"What? You, you mean... Impossible, absolutely impossible! Spirit Array Master's breakthrough requires constantly condensing Spirit Seals, how could you possibly accomplish such a thing in battle?"
Startled by the thoughts in his mind, Shi Lingdao broke down once again.
Unlike Dou Qi cultivation, breakthroughs can be made during combat.
For Spirit Array Master to break through in battle, it is an extremely difficult thing!
You have to understand, how can someone in the heat of battle possibly be distracted by focusing on condensing Spirit Seal?
In any case Shi Lingdao had never heard of such a thing.
That's right, Xiao Lin's so-called breakthrough is the same breakthrough that Shi Lingdao was talking about.
In the battle just now, he multitasked and successfully raised his Spirit Array Master level to the Mid Heaven Grade!
Mid-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng cannot leave behind an Early Eight-Star Dou Saint plus Low Heaven Grade Spiritual Formation Grandmaster, but a Mid Heaven Grade Spiritual Formation Master can!
In fact, since releasing Zhukun from the Ancient Emperor's Cave, Xiao Lin's Spirit Array Master level has already reached the peak of the Low Heaven Grade.
He just successfully broke through by taking advantage of the pressure from Shi Lingdao!
As for what kind of pressure?
Yes, while the two were exchanging blows using Spiritual Formation, Xiao Lin was secretly studying the Spiritual Formation that Shi Lingdao had set up!
It was precisely because of this that Xiao Lin was able to successfully overcome that hurdle in his Spirit Array Master mastery.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Shi Lingdao would actually be able to detect Xiao Lin's subtle actions.
However, before the two even exchanged blows, Xiao Lin seized the opportunity to provoke his opponent.
At that time, Shi Lingdao was in a fit of rage and not only overlooked Xiao Lin's subtle actions, but even the way he set up the formation seemed very crude.
This also allowed Xiao Lin to take the opportunity to study the various Spiritual Formation set up by the other party.
Sometimes, combat isn't just about brute force.
Using your brain more can help you overcome stronger opponents!
It can be said that although Shi Lingdao was slightly stronger than Xiao Lin in the beginning, he was actually within Xiao Lin's calculations from start to finish.
Therefore, his defeat in this battle was not unjust!
Believe it or not, this is the truth! It's time to end this. Wandering souls, go back to where you came from!
As he spoke, Xiao Lin began changing his hand seals again.
The next second, the Starry Sky descends!
The Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation was set up by Xiao Lin for the second time to deal with the enemy.
In fact, even now, the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation that Xiao Lin has researched is still not perfect.
Even setting aside perfection, the current Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation is still a far cry from Xiao Lin's expectations!
Over the years, Xiao Lin has been constantly refining and perfecting this trump card of his.
Now, compared to when Xiao Lin used it to deal with Hun Zhan, the power of the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation has reached a new level.
To put it simply, this is a Formation whose power is increased based on Xiao Lin's own level of Spirit Array Master!
Now that Xiao Lin's Spirit Array Master level has reached the Mid Heaven Grade, the power of the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation has naturally become even stronger.
Or, to put it another way, it would be more accurate to say that Xiao Lin can only unleash the power of the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation.
At the same time, just after Xiao Lin set up the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation, all the other Formations around him collapsed instantly!
At this moment, the Minor Zhoutian Star-Dipper Formation is the only king among these Spiritual Formation!
"No!"
Shi Lingdao, shrouded in the Starry Sky, could only let out a shrill scream.
