Thirty Thousand Thoughts
This Spiritual Array was especially strange. The runes were milky white and complicated, while the eye of the Array was pitch-black and deep. An ancient evil aura was emitted from it. One black and one white, intertwining with each other, causing the space to appear gloomy.
"Black Sky-Devouring Array — Open!"
A low shout came out of Chu Xingyun's mouth. As soon as he spoke, the black and white light in the spiritual array soared into the sky and spread out in all directions. It slowly spread out like water waves, enveloping the entire Sword Tomb with a touch of chaotic color.
Buzz!
However, after a while, the chaotic color dissipated. The mysterious and strange Spiritual Array was floating in the sky. Every rune and eye of the Array was so strange, as if it was connected to some unknown mysterious area.
Chu Xingyun raised his head and stared at the mysterious Spiritual Array. His expression became more and more serious. His figure flashed, and he came to the center of the Spiritual Array. His hands had already formed a seal, and he slapped the air.
A muffled rumble sounded. A wave of Spiritual Energy gushed out from Chu Xingyun's body and merged into the center of the Spiritual Array, causing the entire Spiritual Array to start spinning wildly. The black and white colors turned into chaos, and an extremely terrifying suction force surged out.
Under this suction force, the numerous enormous pieces of Five Metal Essence on the ground started to sway, and the numerous damaged swords also started to tremble in resonance as if they wanted to resist this suction force. The sound of the wind was loud, and it was as if it was complaining.
"Hmph!"
Chu Xingyun shouted in a low voice. The Demonic Light in his eyes flourished, and his Spiritual Energy turned into thousands of threads, binding the Five Metal Essence and broken swords. His mind trembled, and he forcefully pulled them over and into the Spiritual Array.
After devouring all the Five Metal Essence and broken swords, the strange Spiritual Array trembled slightly. Then, a black light vaguely rose from every eye of the Array. The black light seemed to be real, and it was actually squirming. In the end, it turned into the shape of a floating sword.
It was a huge spiritual array that covered the sky and the sun. The number of array eyes on it was terrifying, reaching 30,000. However, on each array eye, there was a sword-shaped black light that was wriggling. It was getting denser and denser, and it was even faintly emitting the aura of a sword!
Seeing this scene, the corners of Chu Xingyun's mouth curled up, and the serious expression on his face finally faded away.
The spiritual formation in front of them was called the Black Engulfing Heaven Refining Formation. The formation was formed from a black hole and a heavy sword. Even Chu Xingyun did not know its origin. It was a smelting formation. If it could be activated to the extreme, it could even smelt the heavens and the earth.
In fact, the commoners had guessed correctly. Chu Xingyun's main purpose of collecting all the metals in the world was to forge weapons and close the gap between the two sides.
Having said that, Chu Xingyun never thought of using a blacksmith. Instead, he used his spirit as the formation and the power of the black hole as the source to smelt the Metal Essence and 10,000 broken swords at the same time.
Every sword-shaped black light here was a real sword. The fact that 30,000 black lights were condensed at the same time meant that Chu Xingyun was going to forge 30,000 swords in one go!
Everyone knew that the path of smithing needed to be done step by step. One could not be careless at all, and one could not be distracted.
Now, Chu Xingyun was forging 30,000 swords at the same time. What's more, every sword-shaped black light emitted a faint aura of the heavens and the earth. The aura was extremely powerful.
Such a scene could be said to be shocking. Even the experienced and knowledgeable Mowang Gong was dumbfounded. Forging 30,000 swords at the same time was too shocking. Logically speaking, not to mention 30,000 swords, even if one were to forge three swords at the same time, the blacksmith's mind would be in chaos and his spiritual sea would be shaken. In serious cases, he might even die on the spot!
However, there was no fear or anxiety on Chu Xingyun's face. Instead, there was a faint smile on his face as if he was full of confidence.
"The ruthless actions of the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Firmament Palace have deprived them of their fate. I can win the fate of the heavens and the earth by protecting Yanxiang Pass and the 36 prefectures. Moreover, these 30,000 swords were forged to resist the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Firmament Palace."
"Swords are killing weapons, but they carry the will of the heavens and the earth. In other words, the heavens and the earth are helping me forge 30,000 swords to cleanse my sins and return peace to the vast earth!"
Chu Xingyun continued to speak. In an instant, the sky above his head trembled. A faint light that could not be seen by the naked eye descended and enveloped his body. At the same time, it also enveloped the entire spiritual formation.
In an instant, the space became silent. Even the sound of the breeze disappeared without a trace. It was extremely strange!
Unlike the silence of the Sword Tomb, at this moment, outside the valley where Yanxiang Pass was located, a series of deafening roars of beasts erupted. The roars were continuous and the shadows of beasts overlapped, causing the earth to tremble.
The White Jade Wasteland was connected to many mountain ranges. The number of spiritual beasts was astonishing. Among them, there were even spiritual beasts in the Yin-Yang Realm. After a series of frenzied attacks, even the million elite soldiers did not dare to underestimate them. They all formed into formations and gritted their teeth to resist the tide of beasts.
At the same time, in the valley, there were continuous sound waves. However, the difference was that in their field of vision, they could clearly see the illusory images of huge spiritual formations. Some were hot, some were cold, and some were vigorous. The killing formation, the maze formation, and the defense formation were all there and perfectly combined. It was as if the Yanxiang Pass had been molded into a spiritual formation fortress.
As for the ear-piercing sound waves, they came from the elite soldiers. They charged again and again and were stopped time and time again. They swore to kill their way into Yanxiang Pass and establish the victory of the battle.
"It has already been ten days. The tide of beasts outside the valley is still huge and 70% of our forces are tied down. Inside the valley, there are countless spiritual formations. The Star Suppressing Guards and the Forbidden Army are cooperating seamlessly. Using the special terrain, they have forcefully blocked us outside, making it difficult for us to take even half a step into the pass."
Lin Yuanli stood high up and took in the entire battle situation. As he spoke, his expression was extremely ugly.
Ten days ago, they used the old, weak, women, and children as bait in an attempt to force their way in. Although the plan failed in the end, there was no doubt that in order to protect the old, weak, women, and children, hundreds of thousands of Star Suppressing Guards and Forbidden Army soldiers died on the spot.
There were not many soldiers guarding Yanxiang Pass, only 360,000. Now that half of them had died, there were only 180,000 left. It could be said that their vitality had been greatly damaged. It was the best time to break through.
They did not expect that the sudden appearance of the tide of beasts and the endless number of spiritual formations would complement each other and forcefully hold back more than three million elite soldiers. For ten days, there was no progress at all.
"Our two sects have deployed 80% of their elites. There are only 20% left in the sect. If we are targeted by the Jiuhan Temple, we will be attacked from both sides and will be completely in trouble …" Lin Yuanli furrowed his brows. When he raised his head, he saw Gu Xuanfeng walking over with a smile.
"How is the tide of beasts? When will it disperse?" Lin Yuanli stepped forward and immediately asked.
"Normally, it will take more than a month for it to disperse. However, I have already set up a battle formation to divert the attacks of the tide of beasts. From what I see, we only need ten days to disperse the tide of beasts and once again put pressure on Yanxiang Pass."
Compared to Lin Yuanli's worry and fear, Gu Xuanfeng was calm and said confidently, "Furthermore, when I set up the formation, I asked the elite soldiers to hide carefully and create an illusion of a bitter battle. The goal is to make the people at Yanxiang Pass let down their guard."
"When the tide of beasts disperse, it will be the day when we launch a strong attack. We will definitely catch them off guard."
"This is a good plan!"
