The valley is filled with rocks and shrouded in mist.

A somber atmosphere enveloped everyone.

Some weaker cultivators, sensing the dense baleful aura enveloping the heavens and earth, and the faint killing intent, had already turned pale.

Even Jun Tianlin and the two elders of Youming felt a headache coming on and couldn't help but speak to Lin Jinglong.

"Are you sure this formation won't harm us?"

"This is a ninth-order grand formation. If that Qilin Guild Master suddenly makes a move, our losses will be extremely heavy!"

"Even if we can evacuate temporarily, we will lose at least half of our manpower, which is more than a hundred lives!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jinglong remained calm and composed.

He had already prepared those hundreds of seventh-grade talismans.

"Don't worry, although this place is dangerous, it was prepared for us. That Qilin Guild Master wouldn't attack us unless he was really desperate."

And that was indeed the case.

As he led the crowd deep into the great formation.

Upon entering the rocky valley in the core area.

The twenty-odd people from the Qilin Society were waiting here.

Li Boyuan looked helpless and innocent.

"Mr. Lin, you've finally arrived!"

He rushed over to greet him.

Lin Jinglong chuckled and gestured to the people around him, telling them to set up whatever they wanted in the valley and wait for the Hidden World Alliance or other experts to come and snatch the spirit talisman.

"President Li, our promise still stands. I have already obtained the talisman. If you can survive the next six days, you will have a place in Qingxu Cave Heaven from now on."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin!"

Li Boyuan was completely convinced.

When he discovered that his painstakingly set up ninth-grade array had been broken by Lin Jinglong with terrifying efficiency, he felt that he could no longer oppose Lin Jinglong.

They didn't even consider joining the Hidden World Alliance.

The reason is simple: he felt that even the Hidden World Alliance would not be able to break through his formation so easily.

And most importantly.

"The Hidden World Alliance has a terrible reputation. Cooperating with them is like throwing lambs to the slaughter. You won't get any benefits, and you might even lose your life."

These are all experiences summarized by people in the martial arts world over the years.

The Hidden World Alliance has been aloof for too long. They only care about blood ties and never treat people from other forces as human beings. They exploit and oppress them before ruthlessly abandoning them.

Li Boyuan discussed with Lin Jinglong, and with Jun Tianlin and others accompanying them, they carefully studied the effects of the Killing Wolf Formation and deployed all their manpower.

Half a day has passed.

The elder of the two elders of the underworld, Tongyou, nodded in satisfaction.

"With the support of this great formation, even if the Hidden World Alliance has about the same number of people as us, or even twice as many, they will still be throwing their lives away."

Tongming Canglao's eyes flashed with divine light.

He said to Lin Jinglong, "Our mission here is to inflict as much damage as possible on the Hidden World Alliance. This great formation can protect the Qingxu Spirit Talisman, but if they cannot break the formation and ultimately choose to protect themselves, then our plan will not be able to be realized."

Lin Jinglong nodded.

In fact, his ultimate goal was not Qingxu Cave Heaven; these were secondary objectives. His true goal aligned with that of the Elders' Council.

They all wanted to take this opportunity to kill Lin Tianwei and the others.

Shatter the foundation of the Hidden World Alliance and wipe them out of this world!

"They won't give up."

Li Boyuan suddenly spoke.

He has clearly given this matter considerable thought.

"The value of Qingxu Cave is immeasurable. Even the Hidden World Alliance has never had a blessed land with such abundant spiritual energy. Furthermore, this martial arts competition is essentially a duel between the Hidden World Alliance and the Elders' Council."

"If they give up, it means they are voluntarily admitting defeat."

"This is a huge blow to the Hidden World Alliance's prestige. After so many years of being high and mighty, if the Hidden World Alliance shows any signs of defeat, they will be met with the backlash from all sides!"

Li Boyuan has been scheming for so long, he has clearly grasped the Hidden World Alliance's thoughts and is prepared for their next move.

Lin Jinglong nodded repeatedly.

"As expected of President Qilin, what you said makes a lot of sense. Even if they suffer some losses, they won't give up so easily. Besides, the Killing Wolf Formation is not invincible after all."

The two elders of the underworld had already told him that they, along with Jun Tianlin, had chased after Zhuge Zun yesterday.

This person is skilled in magic formations.

Give him some time, and he might be able to break the Wolf Formation.

With the addition of the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique and those traitors from the Five Elements Spirit Clan, even if they don't break the formation, they still have a chance to withstand the killing intent of heaven and earth within the formation and forcefully break into the core area of ​​the formation.

Lin Jinglong and his men were on high alert.

Not long after, Li Boyuan's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

"They're here!"

The bronze compass floated in front of him.

Within the range of his divine sense, hundreds of hidden alliance Martial Emperors appeared in an area of ​​one thousand meters.

They ignored the thick fog and arrogantly barged in.

The three ninth-level family heads, Lin Tianwei, Zhuge Zun, and Nangong Xiong, along with the rest of their subordinates, had all entered the formation's range.

"This place has actually been set up with a magic array."

"Zhuge Zun, let's see what you're capable of."

"Hurry and break through the formation!"

Lin Tianwei shifted his gaze.

The middle-aged man in the blue robe, who had just recovered from his injuries, smiled confidently. His powerful spiritual energy covered an area of ​​a hundred feet in radius, and he quickly found several key points.

"There is one main node and three sub-nodes. This is actually a ninth-grade grand formation. I don't know what its specific effects are, but in any case, as long as we destroy those nodes, we can destroy this grand formation!"

Zhuge Zun was indeed an extraordinary array master.

Although the Shenqing lineage was destroyed, its direct descendants are still a force to be reckoned with.

Just as they were about to break through the formation.

Lin Jinglong's voice was already echoing in everyone's minds.

"Gentlemen, if we go any deeper, I'm afraid many of us will die."

"I, Lin Jinglong, dislike killing."

You'd better run!

"Lin Jinglong, you are shameless!"

Lin Tianwei's eyes began to turn bloodshot.

He suddenly grinned maliciously and said, "So you really are here. Wash your neck and wait to die!"

"Before I die, I will make you suffer endless torment. I wonder how the Myriad Shadows Sword Qi I left on you tastes?"

"I have even more ruthless methods for you to enjoy!"

Upon learning that Lin Jinglong was inside the formation and even controlling it, Lin Tianwei quickened his pace.

He rallied everyone around him.

They advanced into this misty region from all directions.

Lin Jinglong laughed heartily.

"Let's see who dies first!"

He was currently located in the core of the chaotic rock valley, like the eye of a storm, surrounded by the killing intent of heaven and earth, with only this core area being safe.

The bronze compass hovered in front of him, indicating that he had seized control of the great formation. Li Boyuan stood by helplessly.

"Master Lin, you deliberately showed up to provoke them, just to keep them going deeper. But if they manage to break through the formation, we'll be in big trouble!"
