The first batch of more than 700,000 Devil Ridge cultivators had suffered more than 20 casualties in an instant after the Dharma Arrays exploded. The remaining cultivators were also struggling to resist the power of the Dharma Arrays. From time to time, they would be injured and scream before they were killed.
The protective formation that enveloped Lu Ye and the giant armor had already shattered.
Although the formation was very sturdy, it also had its own limits. After blocking a round of fierce attacks from the Devil Ridge cultivators, it had already been broken. However, at this moment, none of the Devil Ridge cultivators had the time to attack him.
On the giant rock, Lu Ye constantly waved the formation flag in his hand, activating the power of the formations around him to the maximum.
The scene was very chaotic.
Finally, a cultivator who saw that the situation was not good shouted, "Hurry up and get out of the formation!"
This group of people had come aggressively, but they had suffered heavy casualties before they could even get close to Lu Ye. Naturally, the most important thing now was to leave this place. Under the premise that they didn't know if there were more formations in the surroundings, flying on their artifacts was the best choice.
It was impossible for there to be formations in the air.
As soon as that person's voice fell, the panicked cultivators finally reacted and took out their flying spirit tools.
In such a dense forest, there were tall trees with towering treetops and many obstacles. Flying on their magic tools was not a good choice. If they were not careful, they could crash into a tree. However, at this moment, the Devil Ridge cultivators had no better choice.
Many spirit tools rose into the air, and the surviving cultivators of the Devil Ridge wanted to escape from this dangerous place.
However, before they could do so, Lu Ye waved the formation flag in his hand again. In the next moment, bright lines appeared on the ground and a new formation was activated.
At the same time the formation was activated, all the cultivators in the air felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them. Their bodies suddenly became incomparably heavy. Even if they tried their best to resist, they couldn't block the invisible force pressing down from above.
"Forbidden Flight?" a cultivator shouted in horror.
Forbidden Flight was a very famous formation, but it was definitely not something a Spirit Stream Realm cultivator could set up. Therefore, such a sudden change caused everyone to panic.
Lu Ye indeed could not set up a Forbidden Flight. A true Forbidden Flight would completely deprive the ability to fly. The formation that was activated now was only set up with heavy pressure spirit patterns as the core. If a cultivator could withstand the huge pressure, they could still fly away. However, the power of a formation was so strong that it was not something a Spirit Stream Realm cultivator could withstand.
Exclamations and screams rose one after another as figures fell in a sorry state.
Before he could land on the ground, a powerful spell had already swept over from below. It was a blazing fire lotus. Yiyi's figure had appeared at some point below the fire lotus. Her hands were raised high, and spiritual energy was surging around her.
Wherever the flames swept, the Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators who had yet to adjust their posture were turned into balls of fire.
Giant Armor ran out and casually grabbed the thigh of a cultivator who fell from the sky. Then, like a spiked club, it swung this person up and smashed him into the nearby enemies.
Lu Ye jumped down from the boulder and placed one hand on the hilt of his saber. He strolled leisurely in this hellish field. Sizzling sounds came from the weapon box as nine rays of light shuttled back and forth in all directions, bringing with them puffs of hot blood. The Mountain Pan Saber was unsheathed from time to time.
Beside him, Hu Po had already revealed his true form. His vigorous figure shuttled back and forth in the battlefield. Pale golden demon essence rolled around his body. When his huge claws slammed down, it was often the scene of broken heads and broken bones.
It was not that the people of the Devil Ridge were not strong enough. Those who dared to pursue Lu Ye here were all cultivators who had converted to Heaven Rank cultivation methods. The lowest cultivation level was at Heaven Rank Seven.
With more than seventy people moving together, they would not be afraid even if they faced Yun He alone.
However, Lu Ye had already made arrangements. Just the two explosion formations alone had caused the Devil Ridge to suffer many casualties. After that, the activation and transformation of the various formations were even more overwhelming.
With so many methods used, the seventy or so people suddenly became a motley crew. What awaited them was only the fate of being slaughtered.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the battle ended.
Around the boulder, on the messy battlefield, there were mutilated corpses lying across. There was also an unpleasant burnt smell mixed with the smell of blood. More than seventy people had died in this battle.
Originally, there were a few people who had a chance to escape. However, they were a little too late and were blocked by the elusive Yiyi. She cooperated with Hu Po to kill them all.
After cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the spoils of war, the group quickly left this place.
A moment later, more Devil Ridge cultivators gathered here. After a round of investigation, the results were horrifying.
The first five groups to find Lu Ye's whereabouts were completely annihilated. Combined with the information that the dead Devil Ridge cultivators had transmitted before they died and the remnants of the battlefield before them, it was obvious that Sect Annihilating Ye had used the power of the formation to achieve such an unimaginable feat.
For a moment, the Devil Ridge cultivators' hearts were heavy.
Lu Yiye was strong and fast. Previously, so many Devil Ridge cultivators had chased after him, but they had not been able to kill him and had allowed him to escape into the vast Hidden Fog Mountain.
Originally, they thought that this was a good opportunity to get rid of him. Who would have thought that this guy would display his extraordinary ability to set up formations?
Just based on the remnants of the formations here, there were no less than seven of the formations that Sect Annihilating Ye had set up here. There were also many broken formation flags and formation foundations left on the battlefield.
It was only now that many Devil Ridge cultivators realized the problem that they had overlooked before.
Lu Yiye could even break a formation at the level of the encampment's protective formation. How could his ability to set up formations be weak?
In this vast forest, clouds and mist were rising, making it difficult to search for people in the air. No one knew if they would suddenly step into a formation if they chased in the forest.
Once they fell into such a trap, they would definitely die.
For a moment, the surrounding environment seemed to have become dangerous, causing people to panic.
"Everyone, there's no need to panic."
Just as many Devil Ridge cultivators were feeling uneasy, someone suddenly stood up and said solemnly, "Even if Lu Yiye has the ability to set up formations, he can't keep this up forever."
As if to increase the persuasiveness of his words, when this person spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally revealed his Spirit Aura. His Heaven Level 9 cultivation was clearly visible.
"Senior Brother, how should I address you?" someone asked politely.
"Thousand Feather Sect, Qin Zheng."
As soon as this name came out, many people immediately checked the battlefield imprint. Soon, someone exclaimed, "Senior Brother Qin, who is ranked 98th on the Spirit Stream List?"
When a cultivator's cultivation reached a certain level, they could use their own battlefield imprint to connect to the mysteries of the heavens and investigate things that they could not access before, such as the Spirit Stream List.
At this moment, Qin Zheng's name was ranked third from the bottom of the Spirit Stream List.
Even though he was ranked third from the bottom, he was still someone on the Spirit Stream List, an existence that ordinary Spirit Stream Realm cultivators could only hope to reach.
Previously, no one had known that there was an expert on the Spirit Stream List among the people chasing after Lu Yiye. It wasn't that the experts on the Spirit Stream List weren't tempted by the rewards for killing Lu Yiye, but that most of them had a high opinion of themselves and would rarely team up with others.
After all, people like Qin Zheng were in the minority. Furthermore, he had always kept a low profile. If it weren't for the sake of boosting morale, he wouldn't have introduced himself.
Hearing people mention the Spirit Stream List, Qin Zheng's face reddened.
His rank of ninety-eighth on the Spirit Stream List was somewhat inexplicable. That was because, just a few days ago, he had not been on the list. In the end, the top three of the Spirit Stream List had all suddenly disappeared, and he had somehow ended up on the list.
"Senior Brother Qin, what did you mean just now?" asked the person who had spoken earlier.
Qin Zheng said, "To be honest, I can barely be considered a formation cultivator." He held half of a formation flag in his hand. "Therefore, I have some understanding of the Dao of Formations. This is the formation flag that Lu Yiye used to set up the formation, and he bought it from the Heaven Secret Treasure House."
"Why do you say that?"
Qin Zheng smiled, and another formation flag appeared in his hand. "Because I bought it before. For us Spirit Stream Stage cultivators, creating formation flags requires quite a bit of effort. Therefore, if you have enough contribution points, buying them from the Heaven Secret Treasure House will save you a lot of time and effort. In the Heaven Secret Treasure House, each of these formation flags is about the same price as a low grade Spirit Artifact. I don't know how many of them Lu Yiye bought, but there are rumors that he bought Supplement Aperture Pills for Li Baxian. I'm sure many of you have heard of the price of those pills, so even Lu Yiye shouldn't have too many formation flags on him."
Someone understood the meaning behind Qin Zheng's words. "Senior Brother Qin, are you saying that once the formation flags in Lu Yiye's hands are used up, he won't be able to set up another formation?"
"That is, unless he buys more! From what I saw just now, there are about ten or so formation flags that have been destroyed. There are also four formation bases. Just those alone would require no less than a thousand contribution points. Furthermore, he should have taken away some of the formation flags that haven't been destroyed yet. "
"That bastard is really rich!"
"A thousand contribution points … how many of our Myriad Devil Ridge's ambitious people have he killed? How hateful! "
"Don't forget about the Aperture Replenishing Pill. Lu Yiye is just a leech that crawls over our Myriad Devil Ridge's cultivators and sucks their blood. He's strengthened himself, but our Myriad Devil Ridge's cultivators have suffered."
The group of people were filled with righteous indignation as they criticized Lu Yiye.
Seeing that the topic had suddenly deviated, Qin Zheng said in a clear voice, "Everyone, don't be scared by Lu Yiye's method of setting up a formation. If we give up now, our Fellow Daoists who died before will have died in vain. If we continue to pursue him, we might die because of this. However, for the future of Myriad Devil Ridge, as long as we can kill Lu Yiye, it will be worth it no matter how many people die. We really can't let him continue to grow. Otherwise, no one in the entire Spirit Stream Battlefield will be able to deal with him. I presume that none of you want such a character to appear in Grand Heaven Alliance, right? "
"Senior Brother Qin is right."
Someone else said, "Although we gathered together before, we didn't have a unified command. That's why we suffered such a big loss. Since Senior Brother Qin is someone on the Spirit Stream List, why don't we let Senior Brother Qin take charge of this matter, and we'll follow his orders?"
Quite a few people agreed with this proposal.
Qin Zheng pondered for a moment before nodding and saying, "Indeed, we need a unified command to succeed. Since so many Fellow Daoists like me, this Qin won't refuse. If anyone feels that they are more suitable than this Qin, they can recommend themselves. This Qin isn't a jealous person and will naturally step down."
