"Wan Feihong, Yin Siliu."
"Wan Yingchun, Chen Ersan."
"Li Wei, Mao Sanjiu."
Ye Kong and the others stood on top of the city tower and raised their heads to look at the sky.
They saw Ancestor Jing Quan standing high up in the sky, giving orders to the many disciples below. The disciples below also stood in an orderly manner. Nearly a hundred Foundation Building Enlightened Masters led more than a thousand Aura Refining cultivators. Every time a Foundation Building Enlightened Master was called by Patriarch Jing Quan, they would bring a few Aura Refining cultivators and fly down on their respective magic tools.
Ancestor Jing Quan's directions were all code words, and he purposely arranged them in a mysterious manner so that others wouldn't be able to learn how to set up the Three Flowers Five Clouds Anti-Devil Formation. Ye Kong didn't understand and didn't want to secretly learn, so he just stood below and watched the show.
However, as he watched, Ye Kong was able to see something. It wasn't the formation, but Ancestor Jing Quan.
Ordinary cultivators put their weapons in their storage pouches, and Core Formation cultivators could even put their magic treasures in their bodies. When flying, many cultivators stood on flying swords. But the strange thing was that Ancestor Jing Quan actually carried a flying sword on his back. The flying sword didn't have a scabbard, and the hilt of the sword was at his waist. The tip of the sword pointed straight to the sky from Ancestor Jing Quan's back. At first glance, he looked like a martial arts expert from the secular world.
Then, he heard the Foundation Establishment rogue cultivators whispering behind him. "I've long heard that Ancestor Jing Quan is a sword cultivator. Looks like it's true."
"Yeah, yeah. If he wasn't a sword cultivator, the Wan Clan would've been swallowed by others a long time ago with only one Core Formation cultivator."
This was the first time Ye Kong heard of sword cultivators since he came to Cang Nan Continent. In the novels he read on Earth, there were also sword immortals. Ye Kong didn't know if they were similar to sword cultivators. However, Ye Kong didn't know the difference between sword cultivators and ordinary cultivators.
Just as Ye Kong was deep in thought, he suddenly felt that there were flashing and beautiful flowers falling from the sky. The petals were like snowflakes descending from the sky. It was like a dream, but also like an illusion, and also seemed real. And when these beautiful flowers fell to the ground or were caught by someone, they would immediately turn into mist and disappear.
This magnificent scene was like a goddess scattering flowers. The entire Wan Clan City was enveloped in this scene. Not only were the mortals astonished, but even the experienced cultivators couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. They looked up at the sky and saw a few overlapping white clouds shrouding the sky above Wan Clan City. Those flowers were falling from the clouds.
At this moment, another loose cultivator muttered, "This Three Flowers and Five Clouds Anti-Demon Formation looks pretty good, but I wonder how strong its defensive power is. It's better not to be used like a decorative vase."
Another itinerant cultivator chimed in, "Generally speaking, metal-elemental defensive arrays are stronger. This wood-elemental array formation is probably …"
When Zhang Mingqiang, who was accompanying them, heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Since the array formation is set up, we naturally need to test its power. Our Old Ancestor Jing Quan will personally test it."
Sure enough, Ancestor Jing Quan quickly waved the array flag in his hand. Next, a narrow opening appeared in the array and Ancestor Jing Quan flew out.
When Ye Kong saw that Ancestor Jing Quan didn't step on any artefact and flew out just like that, he was a little suspicious. If he used the flying technique, he wouldn't be able to last long and it would consume a lot of magic power. Ancestor Jing Quan shouldn't know this right?
However, Ye Kong soon saw some clues. Ancestor Jing Quan's shoes were actually an artefact. Obviously, it was a type of flying artefact, which was why he didn't need to use a flying sword to fly.
In the blink of an eye, Ancestor Jing Quan had already flown out of the array. He stood alone in the clouds with his hands behind his back like a god. Although he didn't move, everyone present could feel that Ancestor Jing Quan's aura was constantly rising. It was a very sharp aura.
Before the sword was drawn, the murderous aura was already released!
In a moment, Ancestor Jing Quan's aura reached a new height. He didn't wait any longer and suddenly raised his hand. The flying sword behind him appeared in his hand as though it had teleported. That flying sword didn't move, but everyone could feel the mountain-like aura from the flying sword.
"Brilliant heavenly might, turn the body into a sword!" Ancestor Jing Quan shouted. His figure disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, the flying sword disappeared as well.
At the same time, a huge white sword shadow appeared. The sword shadow was so wide that it seemed to split the sky. Everyone standing below was shocked by the aura of this sword. The mortals were so scared that they knelt on the sides of the road. Even the meditation cultivators' faces were pale and their legs were weak. Although the foundation building cultivators didn't show anything on the surface, other than the white sword shadow in their eyes, there was also some fear.
"Boom!" The sword shadow slashed onto the grand formation, creating a loud sound that shook the heavens and the earth. However, this didn't stop. The loud sound was like the explosion of beans. Who would have thought that this brilliant sword shadow actually contained the might of a hundred swords?
Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. Although the Wan Clan only had one core formation ancestor, it wasn't annexed by others. It seemed like there was a reason. With such a powerful attack, even a normal core formation ancestor wouldn't be its opponent. What kind of defensive artefact could withstand the 100 swords? If they sent the Yuanying ancestor, it wouldn't be worth it.
Originally, Ye Kong looked down on the Wan Clan, but now, he didn't think that way anymore. In fact, Ye Kong even had expectations of sword cultivators. 'This sword cultivator is so powerful, can I learn it? This sword is even more powerful than a top-grade flying sword!'
After Ancestor Jing Quan attacked with all his strength, he looked at the array again. It wasn't damaged at all. The five white clouds were still hanging high in the sky. The petals and flowers inside the array were still scattered like rain. The mortals' houses and shops didn't even have a tile damaged.
Ancestor Jing Quan showed off his power and told everyone not to worry. This array was as solid as a rock, so there was no need to worry. Six core formation ancestors was nothing. After a few days, reinforcements would arrive.
When Ancestor Jing Quan flew into the array, the mortals all shouted, "Ancestor's sword power will slay the evildoer!"
Ancestor Jing Quan laughed, turned into a sword, and returned to his mansion like a ray of light.
Ye Kong looked at the black-robed female cultivator. She was standing there, looking at the array in a daze. She also felt that Ye Kong was looking at her, so she quickly turned her head and smiled. Her eyes were curved, and her teeth were white. The smile of a beauty was better than the falling flowers in the sky. It made people's minds sway, and they wanted to kiss her.
Ye Kong nodded slightly and retracted his gaze. Zhang Mingqiang walked over proudly and said to Wang Tingshi, "Daoist Wang, I will take you to visit the array eyes. This way, please."
Zhang Mingqiang deliberately ignored Ye Kong. Ye Kong wasn't interested in the array eyes, so he left alone.
He wasn't born to set up arrays, but he was an expert in breaking them. He didn't know how long it would take for the Growing Earth Essence to break the Three Flowers and Five Clouds Anti-Devil Array.
Ye Kong walked in a daze. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "Where can I learn the sword cultivation method?" If he went to find Ancestor Jing Quan, he definitely wouldn't give it to him. The Dharma spells that each person cultivated were the sect's secrets. How could he give it to an outsider like him? In other words, if someone went to Cloud Talisman Sect and said arrogantly, "You there, show me your Cloud Talisman Sect's most powerful spirit talisman making method!"
Wasn't that an idiot looking for trouble?
Ye Kong walked around and finally decided to ask Wan Xuan. After all, he would be his son's master in the future. It was okay to ask about some things.
