Sword Formation, Crushed in an Instant
"We're almost at Purple Forest Mountain, everyone get ready."
Sikong Ying glanced outside, then addressed the crowd.
The people on the deck had serious expressions, each one poised and ready to go.
Li Yunjing also sat down on the spot to conserve his energy.
At this moment, Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng walked over and sat down next to Li Yunjing.
"Yunjing, it seems we won't need to lift a finger this time," Fang Hexuan said with a smile.
"Master, what do you mean by that?" Li Yunjing asked curiously.
"Senior Fang and I have already scanned the area with our Divine Sense, and there is no aura belonging to the Spirit Transformation stage in the vicinity, so there are no Spirit Transformation Realm Devil Cultivator on Purple Forest Mountain."
"Now that there are no Devil Cultivator at the Spirit Transformation Realm, we can relax. You can handle the rest," Xie Zheng said with a smile.
Li Yunjing nodded slightly. "Even so, we still cannot be careless."
Not long after Li Yunjing finished speaking, a sharp, urgent shriek suddenly rang out.
This was the signal sent by Sikong Ying; they had arrived at Purple Forest Mountain.
The entire Extreme Crossing Boat suddenly stopped at this moment, the energy shield protecting the Extreme Crossing Boat opened, and all the cultivators on the deck used their respective methods to quickly leave the Extreme Crossing Boat.
Everyone proceeded in an orderly manner.
Li Yunjing did not enter Purple Forest Mountain immediately.
According to the plan, he needs to wait a while.
"Staying on deck is a waste of time, let's go check out the bridge," Li Yunjing thought.
Li Yunjing got up and left the deck, then went to the bridge.
Inside the bridge, Sikong Ying was manipulating the array on the Extreme Crossing Boat to investigate the situation within Purple Forest Mountain.
It also allows the Extreme Crossing Boat to act as the brain, coordinating all cultivators entering Purple Forest Mountain.
This was the first time Li Yunjing had ever heard of the Extreme Crossing Boat's function; it was like an aircraft carrier.
"Yunjing, you've come at the right time. There's an array over there. Go to the core of that array and wait for my instructions. I'll have you activate the core of the array immediately, as I can't handle it all by myself," Sikong Ying said, pointing to an array nearby.
Li Yunjing nodded and went to the core of the formation.
At the core of this formation is a floating sphere, with tadpole-shaped runes rotating around it.
Li Yunjing released his Divine Sense and landed on the sphere, instantly understanding its function.
This is the core of the attack formation that controls the entire Extreme Crossing Boat.
Through this core, Li Yunjing can activate any attack formation on the Extreme Crossing Boat to kill enemies.
"That's interesting." Li Yunjing immediately became excited.
The attack formations on the Extreme Crossing Boat are complete, and several powerful formations are also stored in reserve.
Li Yunjing was eager to test the power of these formations.
At this moment, Sikong Ying suddenly spoke up, "Yunjing, the coordinates have been transmitted. Activate the array core immediately and attack those coordinates!"
As soon as Sikong Ying finished speaking, the core of the formation suddenly emitted light.
All the light converged, forming an incredibly detailed scene.
Li Yunjing even saw several Devil Cultivator Devil Cultivator this scene; he could clearly see the expressions on their faces and even the pores on their skin.
At that moment, Li Yunjing immediately activated the core of the formation.
All the attack formations on the Extreme Crossing Boat were poised to be unleashed at this moment.
Li Yunjing can choose to activate all attack formations simultaneously, or he can choose to activate only one.
"Let's stick with just one. Activating all the formations would be too taxing, and I'm afraid we won't be able to do it more than a few times," Li Yunjing thought to himself.
With this thought in mind, Li Yunjing chose to activate the Great Geng Heaven Sword Formation.
This is a top-grade fourth-rank formation, capable of easily killing Nascent Soul Cultivator.
The coordinates given by Sikong Ying happened to be an important stronghold of Devil Cultivator within Purple Forest Mountain.
The area is teeming with Devil Cultivator, including many at the Nascent Soul Devil Cultivator. Therefore, this formation ensures that the Devil Cultivator can be severely injured immediately.
In an instant, the azure light surged, and seventy-two Golden Light flew out from the Extreme Crossing Boat, transforming into the Great Geng Spirit Sword!
The sword is golden, as if it has been tempered by ten thousand years of Geng metal, and it shines with a cold blue-gold divine light. As soon as it appeared in the world, it caused the sharp metal energy in the world to roar, as if the Nine Heavens Sword River was hanging upside down.
Seventy-two spirit swords soared into the air, hovering in a staggered pattern according to the positions of the stars in the heavens and the eight trigrams. Countless fine, hair-like cyan-gold sword threads were connected between the swords, instantly weaving a sword net that blotted out the sky.
"Buzz--"
With a soft hum, Purple Forest Mountain and the surrounding space were sealed off.
In the next instant, countless sword threads suddenly swept down like a storm, heading towards that coordinate.
Purple Forest Mountain, in the Demon's Cave
Pei Tu was listening to his subordinate's report.
He was puzzled as to why righteous cultivators would come to Purple Forest Mountain.
Moreover, judging from their demeanor, these righteous cultivators are coming specifically for them.
"The news has leaked? Damn it, we were so close to success, we can't let the righteous path ruin our grand plan!" Pei Tu thought to himself.
"Why hasn't Gao Jin sent the Void Nether Stone yet? It seems we'll have to turn him into a white zombie after this!"
The moment this thought crossed Pei Tu's mind, his hair stood on end, and he found it difficult to breathe.
He immediately noticed something rapidly falling from the sky.
Before Pei Tu could react, a thunderous roar resounded through the sky.
The entire den of demons collapsed in an instant.
Those Devil Cultivator at Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Realm were the first to suffer. The sword threads pierced through their bodies, and no protective measures worked. Their flesh was instantly shredded into a cloud of blood mist, and even their souls were annihilated by the Great Geng Heaven Sword Qi. They didn't even leave behind a scream.
The Golden Core Realm cultivators inside the Demon Cave were quite powerful and reacted quickly.
He immediately and frantically activated his Devil Cultivation Method, layering his bone shield, blood armor, and demonic banner.
Before the Great Geng Heaven Sword Formation, all defenses were futile. The sword threads entangled, cut, and pierced, shredding the Devil Cultivation Method barriers layer by layer. In the next moment, they and their magical Law Treasure were pulverized into dust. Blood rained down, but it was cleansed by the Sword Qi, leaving not a trace of blood.
Within moments, all the demons within the demon's lair were annihilated.
Only Pei Tu and two other Devil Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage stage remained.
However, the situation for these three individuals was also not good.
Even if they react immediately and respond quickly.
However, the sword threads were too troublesome, penetrating everywhere, cutting their bodies so badly that their bones were exposed.
"Damn it, what happened!?"
Pei Tu coughed up a mouthful of Essence Blood, both shocked and furious.
He didn't even know who the attacker was or where the attacker was!
Just as he was about to order the other two Nascent Soul Devil Cultivator to find the attackers, endless Golden Light, like a vast ocean, illuminated the entire world in a golden glow.
The seventy-two Great Geng Heaven Spirit Sword suddenly converged, transforming into a thousand-foot-tall sword pillar. Azure-gold divine light soared into the sky, and sharp golden energy tore through the heavens and earth, carrying the power to split the world, and crashed down on the Black Wind Devil Cavern below!
"Boom--!!!"
The deafening roar echoed for miles around. The foundations of all Devil Cultivator strongholds—the White Bone Palace, the Blood Pool Demon Altar, the underground restrictions, the Demon-Hidden Caves—collapsed, shattered, and turned to ashes under this sword pillar.
The countless sword threads slowly converged, and the seventy-two Great Geng Heaven Spirit Sword hummed as they shed their bloodstains, their azure-gold divine light still fierce, flying back into the Extreme Crossing Boat one by one, leaving only a patch of scorched earth on the ground and the lingering chill of Sword Qi in the air...
