Part 7 Chapter 821: A Long Line
"Everyone, don't panic, listen to my command!"
Diwu Qingrou shouted in mid-air, "Everyone, listen to my command. Don't panic. Maintain the original formation, head to tail. The strongest person in each team will be the vanguard, and the law-enforcement officers will take the lead. Set up the formation! Resist the strong enemy! Delay the enemy. As long as we can delay until Old Xiao and the rest return, victory will still be ours. "
In an instant, pieces of Purple Crystals scattered on the ground. No matter what, they were all veterans who had at least hundreds of years of cultivation. They knew that the situation in front of them was very dangerous. If they panicked, it would be no different from courting death. The only thing they could do was to work together to resist the attack and try their best to survive. They quickly calmed down. A dense light circle rose, and an inexplicable energy surged.
The formation had already taken shape in the blink of an eye.
According to the original strategic arrangement, the Ye Clan was supposed to take the lead. But now that Ye Xiaoyao and two other eighth-grade Supreme Martial Artists of the Ye Clan who came as reinforcements had gone out to chase after the treasure, they had no choice but to let the law-enforcement officers, who were the strongest, take the lead.
Diwu Qingrou sighed in his heart. What he said just now was just to calm the hearts of the people, so that their formation wouldn't collapse completely. In the face of such a strong force, why would they need to defend? There wasn't even a chance to hope for a fluke. What he was doing now was just to prepare for a rainy day and set up a simple Long Line Formation with both offense and defense. He had done his best.
Even if Diwu Qingrou was as intelligent as a demon, he was ultimately not a prophet. If he wasn't, who would have thought that such a bizarre thing would happen at the last minute?
All the important people had left?
Wasn't this bullsh * t? What the f * ck is this?!
But even so, Diwu Qingrou still wouldn't give up just like that. He knew that resistance was futile, but he still had to do his best to face the current battle. Even if there was only a slim chance, he still had to put in a lot of effort!
In the end, this battle wasn't a battle between the Li Clan and the allied forces, but a battle between himself and Mo Tianji!
Diwu Qingrou would never give up so easily.
Even if all the high-level Supreme Martial Artists of the Li Clan were to come in full force, if the remaining people were to act according to his command, they might not necessarily be unable to resist. In fact, as long as they dragged on, they might even have a chance to counterattack!
At the same time, Mo Tian Ji's cold voice came from afar, "One of you, attack its head. Four of you, attack its abdomen. The rest of you, kill its tail! Attack quickly! "
The high-level Supreme Martial Artist of the Li Clan scattered in mid-air.
Diwu Qing Rou acted according to the situation and ordered, "Blooming abdomen, blooming flowers fill the sky!"
"Boom!" The army on the mountaintop simultaneously raised their Qi and prepared to attack.
When the enemy in the abdomen landed, this force would meet them head-on and deliver a head-on blow!
"Transform into a long dragon and attack first!"
Mo Tian Ji also shouted.
No matter what, he had to force all these people down the mountain. Even if he had taken advantage of them, it was still impossible to wipe them all out. It was just a fool's dream.
The current highest strategy was to take advantage of the delicate moment when the other side's masters were all out to take advantage of the situation and drive the remaining people down the mountain. This way, he would achieve his expected strategic goal.
"Boom!"
Light flashed. The swords and sabers in the hands of Li Xiangsi and the others turned into streaks of sharp light at the same time. Like shocking rainbows, they flew out of their hands with the coldest and most terrifying killing intent.
In mid-air, they were like small suns, emitting the most dazzling light and slashing down on the crowd below.
"Let go!" Diwu Qing Rou roared!
Below, more than 3,000 swords also flew out of their hands at the same time, facing the meteor-like sabers and the terrifying destructive force in mid-air.
If this force landed within the formation, the formation of the allied forces would immediately collapse! Even if the formation was destroyed, the people would die too!
Now that their individual combat power was far inferior to the opponent, they could only rely on the combined forces of everyone to resist!
"Boom, boom, boom …"
The combined efforts of more than 3,000 people collided fiercely with the power of this top expert. The momentum at this moment seemed to be even greater than the explosion of 8,000 people previously. Rumbling sounds of mountains collapsing and the earth cracking could still be heard from thousands of miles away. However, the mountaintop under everyone's feet did not move at all.
Countless people turned pale. When they raised their heads, blood spurted out of their mouths.
The eight high-level Supreme Martial Artists above, including Li Chunbo, all spurted out blood at the same time. Their individual strength was far superior, and their combined attack was enough to shake the heavens and earth. However, the combined efforts of more than 3,000 Supreme Martial Artists, coupled with the power of the formation, was equally earth-shattering.
Although both parties were only throwing weapons at each other across space, the impact of the tremors and the influence of the energy movement on each other was still terrifying beyond compare. Divine senses vibrated, internal organs vibrated, and souls vibrated!
This was still thanks to the collision of weapons that were thrown out. If they were really held in their hands … Even Li Chunbo would probably die in such a collision!
"Change the formation!" Diwu Qing Rou let out a loud shout, and the long snake formation below suddenly changed. It rolled like a wave. The experts inside didn't dare to be negligent even if they were injured or not. They shifted their positions, and changed the formation.
"Flying Dragon Illusory Form, attack, defend!" Following Diwu Qing Rou's command, everyone had already attacked while they were moving. Streams of the purest Supreme Martial Artist's origin energy madly shot toward Li Chunbo and the others in mid-air.
Diwu Qing Rou's command was very clear.
It was both an attack and a defense. Moreover, after the formation transformed into this' Flying Dragon Illusory Form ', it immediately started to circulate. Li Chunbo and the others were facing different opponents at every moment.
In other words, even if you successfully injured the person opposite you a moment ago, by the time you wanted to reap the fruits of your labor, you would realize that the person in front of you had already changed. It was another person who was full of energy and was completely uninjured.
The ultimate purpose of setting up such a formation was not to attack the enemy but to defend and stall for time, waiting for Xiao Chenyu and the others to return.
It was not that Diwu Qing Rou did not want to make use of this power to take down Li Chunbo and the others. In fact, although this person was strong, it was still difficult for him to fight against the combined strength of more than a thousand experts. However, when he saw that more than a thousand people from the Li Clan were also about to arrive, he immediately changed his mind.
If he insisted on annihilating the great experts, he might have a chance to kill a few of these high-level Supreme Martial Artists. However, the formation would collapse instantly under the attacks of the remaining thousand people.
Once the formation collapsed, the forces could not be gathered together. Then, they could only be slaughtered unilaterally by the remaining high-level Supreme Martial Artists!
Calculating in this way, the losses would greatly outweigh the gains.
Mo Tianji, who was in the air, was also constantly giving orders. Li Chunbo and the others were also constantly changing their positions. Under Mo Tianji's command, the targets of every attack were all targeted at the weak points of the formation. The targets were precise, and every move was on point!
However, the opponent was the combined strength of thousands of people. No matter how powerful Li Chunbo and the others were, it was like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water. They could not really pose a fatal threat.
It was like punching at the sea. Even if they could create a huge ripple every time, even if they could create a huge disturbance, to this boundless sea, it was just a ripple.
However, this man-made formation was ultimately not the sea. There was always a limit to how much it could withstand.
In the formation, the number of injured people continued to increase.
Diwu Qing Rou's expression was calm, but it was already so calm that it was stiff. He kept giving orders and making adjustments. Although the number of injured people was increasing, he had already stabilized his state of mind and identified the positions.
The changes in the formation, however, were becoming more and more skillful.
In addition, he could vaguely feel that the other party's intention of putting in so much effort to come up with this move was probably not to annihilate the people here. After all, even if there were no more high-level Supreme Martial Artist experts, there were still more than thousands of fourth and fifth grade Supreme Martial Artists here.
They could not be swallowed. If they were to forcefully swallow them, they would only choke to death.
Since they could not swallow them, they had to use force. This meant that Mo Tianji had other plans, and the only thing worth scheming about here was the terrain here!
What the enemy needed was what he would not abandon! Persevering and defending was the best way to counterattack!
Therefore, Diwu Qing Rou did not retreat an inch! As long as the formation did not completely collapse, they had to continue defending.
Deafening battle cries rang out. The Li Clan's reinforcements had finally reached the top of the mountain!
Mo Tianji's orders were even more urgent and faster.
To Mo Tianji, this mountain was indeed of utmost importance. This was because he had put in a lot of effort here.
He had never thought of wiping out all these people in one go. That was obviously unrealistic. His original intention was only to force them away.
But what Mo Tianji really did not expect was that Diwu Qing Rou, who clearly had the absolute advantage in terms of combat power, would actually rehearse such an offensive and defensive formation in advance!
Strictly speaking, this formation was Mo Tianji's loss. If it were not for the absence of the other party's experts, his side might have been completely annihilated.
In this formation, Diwu Qing Rou lost to the heavens, but won against man! It was just that whether man could conquer the heavens or not was still unknown!
Diwu Qing Rou had seen through Mo Tianji's scheme. Mo Tianji had lost by a small margin. After finally having a chance to turn things around, the other party's well-prepared formation appeared here. This was equivalent to losing two rounds in a row.
Although there were not too many substantial losses at the moment, Mo Tianji was already in awe.
Although he never dared to underestimate the enemy, this time, he had more or less underestimated Diwu Qing Rou and his tenacity.
"In this world, I am not the only one who knows how to plan for a rainy day!" As Mo Tianji commanded, he secretly told himself, "I am not the only one who is smart!"
"I must not make such a mistake again! I must not underestimate any opponent! " Mo Tianji's gaze was deep. "This time it was the Li Clan. But if the same mistake is made next time, my brothers and I will bear the consequences!"
