"Father. Can you break this formation of the Eternal Sect?" The Eternal Sect has set up such a big commotion that the Ghost Fiend Sect, which is also in the camp at the foot of the mountain, could not possibly not hear it, and could not possibly not come out to see what's going on.
Seeing the Eternal Sect's impressive array of troops, Lin Yan couldn't help but wonder about the strength of their formation, as there were some parts she didn't understand.
Using her father, the sect leader of the Ghost Fiend Sect, as a benchmark is clearly the most appropriate and only choice.
Ultimately, even Lin Yan could see that this formation was not something an ordinary person could break.
Even so, she had not yet fully grasped the power of this formation.
However, she still felt that her father should be able to break through.
When his daughter asked a question, Lin Mo didn't answer it directly. Instead, he said to Lin Yan, "Back when I was young, before you were born, your mother, a few friends, and I once faced off against the Great Formation of the Eternal Sect. It was an absolutely epic battle. To this day, I still remember it vividly."
"Father, what was the result? Was it possible to break through?" When Father was young, he was already famous in the martial arts world. After meeting Mother, he had a great opportunity and his strength increased greatly. So it is not surprising that Father and Mother had seen and even fought against the great formation of the Eternal Sect.
Lin Yan was more concerned about the outcome.
"The result?" Actually, Lin Mo didn't want to talk about this anymore. "Back then, I was young. After all, you're eighteen now. Back then, I was fearless and thought I could break this formation. But reality taught me a lesson. If it weren't for your mother's rescue, there would be no me, and no you either. Of course, the Eternal Sect didn't fare well either; they could only barely save face."
"Oh. That was before. Now? Twenty years have passed, and Father's strength is vastly different now. In Father's opinion, can you break this formation now?" Lin Yan clearly realized that before she was born, that was at least twenty years ago. Back then, Father was still a young man who was still talking about love and adventure in the martial arts world with Mother.
Now, he is the sect leader of the Ghost Fiend Sect, so naturally, his strength is no longer what it used to be.
In the past, Lin Mo had not been able to break this formation, but Lin Yan did not care.
She was more concerned about whether her father could break the spell now.
Lin Mo clearly understood the deeper meaning behind his daughter's question—it was all for that boy, wasn't it? Lin Mo didn't want to help the boy, but ultimately couldn't bear to make his daughter anxious, so he specifically instructed her: "Go tell that boy. Breaking this formation isn't simply a matter of killing them one by one. While he could probably kill ten or twenty of the three thousand disciples of the Eternal Sect in a single fight, once they form a formation, he won't be able to kill a single one of them unless the formation is broken. The formation will protect each of them. At the same time, each of them will merge their strength into the formation, condensing a formation spirit/general to attack those who try to break the formation. The Eternal Sect's formations can accommodate ten, a hundred, or a thousand people." Formations can mutually support each other; smaller formations can form larger formations, and larger formations can form an even larger main formation. The Eternal Sect has sent three thousand people this time, so the main formation general must be one of those three thousand formation spirit generals, whose strength is equal to the combined strength of those three thousand people plus the ten Golden Core elders of the Eternal Sect. However, this main formation general is not someone an ordinary person can challenge. Moreover, he has three thousand-strong formation generals and thirty hundred-strong formation generals below him. With so many formation generals, they can mutually support and assist each other, and concentrate their full power to attack one person—an unstoppable force. In short, let that kid fend for himself. However, you don't need to worry too much. He said there's also the Pavilion Master of the Hidden True Sword Pavilion on the mountain; she knows the Eternal Sect's secrets and should tell him.”
"Father, does that mean we can't break the Eternal Sect's battle formation?" Lin Yan immediately became nervous.
Lin Mo couldn't help but smile, instructing his daughter, "Even a god couldn't defy the heavens alone! No matter how powerful I am, I need help to break the formation. Why should I, as the Eternal Sect, have three thousand people forming the formation, while you have to go up alone to break it? I have people under my command! If I break this formation, these elders beside me will be more than enough. I'll break the main formation, and the elders will break the secondary formation. Once I break the main formation, the elders will definitely be able to break the secondary formation, and then the entire formation will be eliminated."
"So, the key to breaking the formation lies in whether there is a very powerful person who can challenge the main formation?" Lin Yan, as expected of her intelligence, immediately found the key to breaking the formation from the words her father had intentionally revealed.
Lin Mo calmly instructed his daughter, "That's easier said than done. The combined strength of three thousand powerful disciples, plus the formidable power of ten Golden Core elders—the resulting array spirit and array general would be incredibly powerful. Do you think challenging it will be easy? The effort would be far greater than fighting a hundred beast kings! In the martial world, only a handful of people can challenge this array. Moreover, your father is probably the youngest among those who can reach this level. After all, your father is your father; his strength is limitless!"
"I understand. I will go and tell Brother Ye!" Lin Yan was already worried. She never expected that the Eternal Sect would be so powerful.
"Yes. This is also an experience for you. Such a great battle is something a person can only experience a few times in their lifetime. This will benefit your future cultivation. A person who has never even witnessed such a great battle will miss out on many opportunities in life. Don't think that so many people have come here just to watch the spectacle. In fact, it is indeed a spectacle, but more importantly, it is an opportunity for cultivation. A cultivator who has never witnessed such a great battle is like a cultivator who has never seen blood; such cultivation will ultimately be nothing more than theoretical talk, ultimately superficial and meaningless." Lin Mo spoke earnestly to his daughter, his loving fatherly heart barely concealed. Even though they often argued and had unpleasant encounters in the past.
However, it is clear that he has always cared deeply for this daughter.
"I understand, Father. Then you don't mind if I go up the mountain to find my Brother Ye?" Lin Yan asked her father with a happy and excited smile.
Lin Mo pretended to be serious and said, "You can go, but be careful of the righteous sects on the mountain. They won't be polite to you, a daughter of an evil sect. In that case, I won't be polite either."
"No, Father. I've encountered similar situations in Songcheng. Brother Ye will protect me and won't let other sects make me suffer." Lin Yan spoke well of Ye Liang to her father.
Lin Mo had no choice but to nod slightly and say, "I already know about this from your Uncle Gui. This kid has done quite well in this respect. Better than your father was back then. Your father was just a silly boy in front of your mother, a blockhead who didn't understand anything. He's much better."
Lin Yan was overjoyed when her father said he was much better.
Who has ever seen the leader of an evil sect voluntarily admit that someone is better than him? This is absolutely unprecedented!
