Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Just then, the sky suddenly revealed a pale golden light curtain that enveloped the entire platform. Sand and rocks were flying around, and Sword Qi was wandering everywhere within the platform.

The second wave of attacks from several people was continuously depleted by the Sword Qi within the Formation, and ultimately collapsed, allowing Jin Zhison to escape.

For a moment, the complexions of Lin Shilu and the others turned deathly white.

"Daoist Zhuang has succeeded!"

Feeling the activation of the Formation, Jin Zhison was very excited. He leaped up and was pulled by Zhuang Zhenxin, who quickly retreated, directly leaving the range of the Formation.

Once out of the Formation, Jin Zhison immediately took a Healing Pill, and then vigilantly stared at the several people inside the Formation.

"Daoist Zhuang, can this Formation trap four Foundation Establishment Cultivators?"

Faced with Jin Zhison's question, Zhuang Zhenxin said with a smile,

"Foundation Establishment Fifth Level Cultivators, not to mention four of them, even if a few more came, it would be nearly impossible for them to break the Formation through attack, unless one of them is a Second Order Array Master, or an Array Master from outside attempts to break the Formation, spending a month or so to study it, or by using a powerful Magic Artifact for the attack. Otherwise, it's absolutely impossible to break through!"

"Not only that, the Sword Qi inside will keep wandering without any pattern, and they must keep moving constantly. Even if they can avoid the attacks of the Sword Qi, once their Spiritual Power is exhausted, they will sooner or later be killed!"

Even if they didn't die, by the time they got out, their families would have been exterminated, and they wouldn't be able to escape. This trip's goal had been achieved, and they could now go and regroup with the main force of their family.

Hearing Zhuang Zhenxin's words, Jin Zhison was very shocked. No wonder Jin Zhiying treated him with such courtesy; he couldn't help but show even greater respect for Zhuang Zhenxin.

It should be known that Array Masters in the Cultivation World were even rarer than Alchemists, and those above Second Order were even less common. In the entire Wei Kingdom, they were rarely seen, and within the Luoyun Mountain Range, none had been seen for decades. The possibility of someone coming to rescue them was virtually non-existent.

Seeing Jin Zhison being overwhelmed, Zhuang Zhenxin was somewhat proud, and said to Jin Zhison,

"Daoist Jin, let's go. We can go and meet up with your elder brother, and sweep through the territories of the four great families one by one, hoping to find the item I am looking for!"

Thinking of quickly attacking the territories of the four great families and obtaining a large amount of treasures, the two were very excited.

"Good, let's set off now and meet up with elder brother!"

At Zhuang Zhenxin's words, Jin Zhison dared not disagree and readily agreed.

Looking at the large number of Cultivators watching the battle below the mountain, Jin Zhison shouted,

"If any of you dare to go to the market or report to the four great families, you are declaring yourselves enemies of the Jin Family. Once we find out, there will be no mercy."

"We wouldn't dare, wouldn't dare..."

The large number of Cultivators had already been scared out of their wits and quickly echoed agreement, with many even offering flattery.

Jin Zhison and the other paid them no more heed and took to Sword Flight, flying towards the east, soon disappearing into the horizon.

After the two had left, the Qi Refining Cultivators who had been watching the battle at the foot of the mountain finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Jin Zhison had not troubled them; it seemed he didn't care about these insignificant people. If a massacre had ensued, they would have had no way to resist. Read the latest on empire

Soon, the Qi Refining Cultivators at the foot of the mountain left, leaving only the few people inside the Formation.

Within the Formation, a large amount of furious Sword Qi was constantly on the move, causing Lin Shilu and the others to speed up their dodging, moving frantically inside.

If they were hit by the Sword Qi, even if they didn't die, they would be gravely injured.

In between dodging, Lin Shilu released several Sword Qi attacks at the Formation's light curtain.

Regrettably, whether it was the Sword Qi or the attack of the Five Elements Spell, they were all absorbed by the light curtain, without showing even a ripple.

Having no other choice, Lin Shilu could only invite the others to attack together and give it a try.

"Fellow Daoists, the power of one is of no use at all; we should combine our powers and strike together, attacking the same spot. Maybe there is some hope."

"I had the same thought!"

Sun Dingfeng had also realized the difficulty of the Formation and happily agreed.

The other few had no objections, so they combined their forces to attack the same spot. Although the light curtain clearly trembled, it quickly returned to normal.

After several attempts, and changing numerous positions, there was still no effect; the Formation remained still.

As time moved on, their Spiritual Power was rapidly depleting. Soon, they were nearing exhaustion, and the only Qi Refining Great Perfection Cultivator who had been alive was already dead, leaving only the four Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

"Daoist Lin, attacking like this is futile. With just the few of us, it's impossible to break the Formation. It's better to save some Spiritual Power to avoid the Sword Qi's attacks and wait for rescue."

Sun Dingfeng's words forced the others to accept the reality: they stopped attacking and began to conserve the little spiritual power that remained, weaving their way within the formation.

Fortunately, the speed of the Sword Qi within the formation was not fast, and it was not difficult for them to avoid it. The consumption of spiritual power was also not rapid. If it had been a Third Order Formation, they would have had no chance to evade it at all.

As days passed, relying on Huiyuan Pills to restore their spiritual power, they were able to hold on a bit longer.

At this moment, Huiyuan Pills became the life-saving straw for the Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Half a month went by, and Wu Yingchong from the Wu Family, exhausted of elixirs and unable to persist, was the first to be struck by the Sword Qi and died.

A renowned Foundation Establishment Cultivator dying because of depleted spiritual power was an unspeakable irony.

Lin Shilu and Sun Dingfeng, both with higher cultivation and more elixirs, could hold on for another half month without problems.

By now, everyone was already exhausted to the limit; the Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Luo Family were on the verge of collapse. If no rescue came, they would inevitably follow in Wu Yingchong's footsteps.

Inside the formation, the three people who were still alive persevered desperately.

...

In the Luoyun Mountain Range, within the valley of great battle.

Atop a mountain peak, Lin Tianming opened his tightly shut eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

After four days of recovery, Lin Tianming's injuries had partially healed.

With the help of elixirs and his powerful self-healing ability, the bloody hole in his arm had healed, leaving only a scar. As long as he did not exert himself for a few days, he would quickly recover.

Thinking back to the entire battle, Lin Tianming couldn't help but feel relieved.

If his father hadn't followed him all the way and arrived in time at the critical moment, all three of them would have undoubtedly perished there.

After four days of seated meditation to recover, Lin Tianming's injuries were partially healed. It was already the day the martial arts competition ended, and it was time for them to set out again.

Before long, Lin Xingrong gathered everyone, and the two people from the Sun Family also came over.

Having confirmed that Lin Tianming's injuries no longer hindered travel, they set off once more towards the outer regions of the Luoyun Mountain Range.

A day later, with Lin Xingrong leading the group, they successfully exited the inner region.

Lin Tianming released the Purple Gold Eagle, and by taking advantage of the Spirit Beast's flight, they could even use this time to recover briefly. Their speed greatly increased as a result.

Finally, on the day the competition ended, they arrived at the starting point. By then, the cultivators who had come to watch had long departed, leaving the lively foot of the mountain eerily quiet.

Seeing the glow surrounding the platform from afar, they were greatly shocked, as it was apparent something unexpected had happened.

Picking up the pace, they quickly arrived at the base of the platform's mountain.

Lin Tianming observed the formation repeatedly and after conjecture, deduced that it was at least a Second Order Formation. However, since none of them were Array Masters, it was impossible to determine exactly what kind of formation it was or how to break it.

"Father, could there be any way to rescue Fifteenth Grandfather and the others who are trapped in the formation?"

Faced with Lin Tianming's question, Lin Xingrong also felt helpless. After all, he wasn't an Array Master himself, and couldn't even figure out the type of the formation, let alone how to begin to dismantle it.

After fruitless discussion, they could only attempt the most straightforward method: using powerful attacks to break through. That was the only thing left to try.

Resolute, Lin Xingrong took the lead in attacking. With all his strength, the formation did not budge an inch.

The group attacked several times with combined forces, but similarly achieved nothing.

The party tried attacking the formation countless times, switching positions, yet the formation naturally showed no response.

As he saw the worsening condition of Lin Shilu and the others within the formation, Lin Xingrong grew increasingly anxious.

At this moment, Lin Tianming was unusually calm, rapidly considering their options for a long while.

"Eye of Five Colors!"

Lin Tianming finally remembered his Eye of Five Colors!

"The Eye of Five Colors has the ability to see through illusions and barriers. Although I'm not sure about the effects on High Order formations, for a Second Order Formation, it shouldn't be a problem."

With his mind made up, Lin Tianming opened his Eye of Five Colors and looked towards the formation's glowing screen on the platform.
