And now in the Wei Kingdom, there was not a single Third Order Formation Master, and even Second Order Array Masters were exceedingly scarce.
At present, relying only on the two Second Order Array Masters brought by Myriad Medicine Valley was simply not enough to find a way to break the Defensive Great Formation of the Golden Sword Sect.
Zhou Yunxiao had anticipated such an outcome, to some extent.
Seeing that there was no hope of breaking the formation with an array master, Zhou Yunxiao had no intention of wasting time.
Although Lin Tianming possessed the Eye of Five Colors, which could see through illusions and greatly assist in breaking restrictive formations,
the Golden Sword Sect’s ancestral defensive formation was certainly not weak. Even with the Eye of Five Colors, it would probably be very difficult to find a way to break it in a short period of time.
Besides, if he actively used the Eye of Five Colors to break the formation, there was a high probability that such a treasure would be exposed.
Once Zhou Yunxiao became aware that Lin Tianming had the Eye of Five Colors, it would undoubtedly arouse his greed.
...
After all, one can never see into another’s heart!
In the face of such a treasure, no one can guarantee whether Zhou Yunxiao or anyone else might not harbor certain thoughts.
If Zhou Yunxiao attempted to seize the treasure, then the situation for the Three Members of the Lin Family would become perilous.
Thus, for the safety of the three of them, Lin Tianming naturally would not act rashly, let alone reveal the secret of the Eye of Five Colors.
At this time, seeing that the array master could not play a significant role, Zhou Yunxiao made up his mind.
Then, under Zhou Yunxiao’s arrangement, the eight Golden Core Cultivators present split into three groups, with each group taking a hundred elite disciples from Myriad Medicine Valley and launching attacks on the Defensive Great Formation of the Golden Sword Sect in turns.
While one group attacked the formation, the other two groups would cultivate nearby, especially the Golden Core Cultivators who were all seizing the moment to recover.
When the group attacking the formation had consumed over half of their mana, another group would rotate in, giving the great formation no chance to catch its breath.
With such relentless assaults, more than a month had passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, a Flying Boat appeared in the sky above everyone.
Looking up, the emblem of the blazing sun on the Flying Boat was extremely conspicuous, obviously the symbol of the Zhenyang Sect.
Then, a cultivator descended from above, none other than the Great Elder Lu Xingfeng of the Zhenyang Sect, who had received the message.
Seeing the newcomer, Zhou Yunxiao and Chen Jingtian were overjoyed and hurriedly led Lin Tianming and the others to greet him.
From a distance, Zhou Yunxiao laughed heartily, “Daoist Lu, you’ve finally arrived!”
“Hehe… Daoist Zhou, have you been well?”
Lu Xingfeng greeted Zhou Yunxiao with a smile, looking equally excited, obviously very satisfied with the outcome of the battle at Myriad Medicine Valley.
“Hehe… With Daoist Lu taking the field, Han Hu that bastard won’t be able to escape this time!”
Zhou Yunxiao returned the comment with a slight smile, seemingly confident about completely defeating the Golden Sword Sect.
In fact, everyone present, seeing that Lu Xingfeng had arrived in time, were also filled with renewed confidence, now having at least a seventy to eighty percent assurance of utterly destroying the Golden Sword Sect.
After all, Lu Xingfeng was also a Late Stage Golden Core Expert, who had forged a prominent reputation over hundreds of years in the Wei Kingdom, with strength already acknowledged by all his peers.
Such a powerful character was indeed illustrious.
Now, with the addition of Lu Xingfeng, their collective strength was further enhanced, both in terms of the number of Golden Core Cultivators and high-order combat power, they clearly held a tremendous advantage.
As long as the Defensive Great Formation of the Golden Sword Sect could be broken, Han Hu and Zhao Hongsheng would surely not be a match for their group.
Knowing this, Lin Tianming and Chen Maohua also politely echoed the sentiment.
“Daoist Zhou is right. With Daoist Lu’s formidable strength, Han Hu and the others have suffered heavy casualties and can’t recover to their peak state in time. They’re certainly no match for the two Daoists!”
“Yes… the nine of us united, Han Hu this time is probably unable to escape his fate!”
“Haha… You flatter me, fellow Daoists!”
Lu Xingfeng laughed and waved his hand in a modest manner.
“`
Zhou Yunxiao then introduced Lin Shikang and Ye Pinghai along with a few others.
At this moment, Lu Xingfeng also learned about the events that had unfolded in the Lin Family in the recent years. He was even more astonished to hear that Lin Tianming, in the midst of the great war, had managed to consecutively kill many Cultivators of the same rank.
Even experts at the Mid Stage Golden Core had fallen to his hands in large numbers.
Now, Lu Xingfeng felt a profound sense of wariness towards the Lin Family and Lin Tianming, and he regarded them with new esteem.
However, as the current Lin Family was an ally of both Myriad Medicine Valley and Zhenyang Sect, the absolute main force in the recent rounds of battle,
Lu Xingfeng had no choice but to take the Lin Family seriously, especially Lin Tianming, who was not only strong but also possessed a frightening potential.
In light of this situation, Lu Xingfeng was exceedingly courteous in his words and demeanor, which also conveyed a desire to befriend.
In response to this, Lin Tianming did not dare to be careless.
In his perspective, the Myriad Medicine Valley had suffered great losses as well, and the overall strength might even have fallen behind that of the Zhenyang Sect.
After all, Lu Xingfeng had also reached the Late Stage Golden Core cultivation, and Chen Jingtian’s strength was plain for all to see, as he had consecutively slain several peers in the battles over these few years.
Such power from Chen Jingtian would definitely be placed at the very forefront among all those of Mid Stage Golden Core cultivation.
At the very least, Lin Tianming felt that if he fought alone, without the aid of Spirit Arts, the chances were high that he would not be a match for Chen Jingtian.
Thus, with the addition of Lu Xingfeng and Chen Jingtian, such top-tier combatants clearly made them stronger than Zhou Yunxiao and Duan Liangyu on the Myriad Medicine Valley’s side.
Comparatively, Myriad Medicine Valley was clearly at a disadvantage.
From this point of view, if this great war were to come to an end at this moment, it’s probable that Zhenyang Sect would truly replace Myriad Medicine Valley, temporarily becoming the strongest Sect in Wei Kingdom.
However, it was too early to concern oneself with this matter since the battle was not yet over, and the final outcome still had many uncertainties.
Whether Zhenyang Sect would have the chance or not would depend on whether Zhao Hongsheng and Han Hu had any trump cards that could change the result.
Very aware of this, Lin Tianming remained calm and composed, his heart not the least bit turbulent, even as he chatted casually with Zhou Yunxiao and Lu Xingfeng, without revealing any signs of peculiarity.
Even when faced with Lu Xingfeng’s words that suggested an alliance, he simply smiled it off without showing any interest in participating.
His response was water-tight, leaving no room for criticism.
As the several of them chatted for a while, they also shared a good deal of specific intelligence. Lu Xingfeng became quite clear on the current state of the Golden Sword Sect.
Following that, they continued to intensify their attacks on the Defensive Great Formation of the Golden Sword Sect as planned.
Another half month passed.
With the addition of Lu Xingfeng, Lin Tianming and the others’ overall strength became even more formidable.
During this time, they increased the intensity of their attacks on the formation, and the speed was significantly faster than at the beginning.
Under the relentless attacks, the energy stored in the Golden Sword Sect’s Defensive Great Formation was quickly depleted.
Despite multiple attempts by Han Hu to use the formation’s features to launch frenzied attacks on them,
Zhou Yunxiao and the others had already made thorough preparations, and their determination to obliterate the Golden Sword Sect was unwavering, coupled with their formidable strength.
The mere power of the formation’s attacks, in the face of absolute strength, was unable to affect much, and the delay caused was almost negligible.
In light of this, Han Hu was burning with anxiety, but as the Golden Sword Sect was trapped, he had no viable options.
Thus, amid this torment, more than half a month painfully dragged on.
At this moment, within the Golden Sword Sect, panic had already begun to set in. Every disciple was drawn to the immense commotion outside and learned of the specific outcomes of the few battles involving Myriad Medicine Valley.
Now, seeing that as many as eight Golden Core Cultivators were attacking the Defensive Great Formation, and Han Hu had not even come out to reassure the Sect Members,
such behavior only further confirmed the veracity of the rumors that had been spreading.
Consequently, the disciples of the Golden Sword Sect were scared out of their wits, and many with lower cultivation levels had already prepared to flee should the formation be breached.
