Chapter 197: Bursting the Formation
"Yes, now it seems that Master Hu's team is stronger. At least they are full of momentum and are killing the monsters one after another."
"You don't know that the Tianji Pavilion is cooperating with the Bai family of Xizhou who is behind Master Hu. The leader of the team is the elite of the Tianji Pavilion. I heard that they sent 200 peak Nascent Soul masters?"
"Are you sure there are 200 peak Nascent Souls? They were short of manpower before, so they forced Ouyang Ruochen, who was going to participate in the competition, to enter the battlefield."
"Oh, is this the time to worry about this? Which force won't retain a little strength? Now it's enough for them to be willing to eliminate the demons!"
"Junior sister, you are a little petty. The manpower is too scattered. If we come one by one, how long will it take to finish the fight?"
Sure enough, just as everyone discussed, three hundred people would not be able to wipe out the monsters very quickly. The monsters in the battlefield had been nurtured for nearly ten thousand years, and there were simply too many of them. After one batch was killed, another batch would come. Therefore, when Zhong Ling'er had already completed the demon-sealing formation at the fifth location, the people in the first echelon had not yet cleared all the monsters.
Zhong Ling'er asked the members of the vanguard team to either rest in the protection formation or go and clean up the monsters, while she took out the Palm Universe.
"Master, let's start the backup plan."
Wu Chen Zhenren hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Zhong Ling'er smiled at Clairvoyance and said, "My fellow Taoists, we are now inviting independent cultivators to cooperate in exorcising demons. You can start to form teams freely. Each team consists of ten people. You must be at or above the peak of the Golden Core Stage, not belong to any family or sect, and agree to pay 30% of the profits. After the team is formed, the team leader should go to my master to register. My master will give you a jade talisman, but this jade talisman can only be used to enter and exit my teleportation array twice. You will need to get it again next time you enter."
"We will send in 30 teams in each batch, which means 300 people, but if the first four echelons are free, they will be given priority."
In fact, most of the independent cultivators followed Master Hu's team. After all, the requirements there were low and the price to pay was also low. Only those who came later or were on the sidelines stayed. Not many people participated, and it took about half an hour to gather a team of 300 people.
After those people arrived, Zhong Ling'er told them what to pay attention to, and then led the vanguard team to the next location.
Hu Qi and Tianji Pavilion chief Mo Qi led the team for a day and finally found a relatively flat and open place, so Hu Qi and Hu Sheng began to set up the second teleportation array.
Because they were unable to crack the secret of the formation disk, unlike Zhong Ling'er, who could just throw it to create a teleportation formation, they had to set it up bit by bit, and a fifth-grade formation took them most of the day.
At this time, the excitement of killing monsters has passed. They all feel that killing monsters will not make them disappear completely. The scattered demonic energy will soon reunite and form a new monster. Therefore, if you really want to get rid of monsters, you must get rid of the demonic energy. The best way to get rid of the demonic energy is to use the Demon Sealing Array.
Hu Qi and the others had carefully studied the formation diagram left by Master Zhong, and had also seen the photo stone of Zhong Ling'er's formation, so they were very confident in setting up this formation. After two hours of hard work, a large formation was finally activated.
Everyone cheered and hurriedly threw the monster in. Hearing the monster's screams, everyone threw in even more vigorously.
Hu Qi and the other man proudly began to set up the second formation. Mo Qi snorted coldly and imitated Zhong Ling'er, saying to Clairvoyance: "It seems that even without Zhong Ling'er, we can still exorcise the demon. It's Master Hu and Patriarch Bai who have a conscience and let us not be taken advantage of."
These words were full of provocation, and Immortal Wuchen's face immediately darkened. Immortal Wuji sneered, "Cooperation is based on mutual consent. We have never forced anyone from the beginning to the end, and there is no deception. Whether we are taking advantage of others will be judged by the public in the future."
Tian Ming Zhenren laughed, "Why would Wu Ji Zhenren bother with a junior? As you said, the public will have their own opinions in the future."
Seeing the contemptuous and resentful eyes of the people opposite him, and some people on his side also showing dissatisfaction, Master Wuji was full of anger. He looked at the Taiqiong Mirror, and saw that Zhong Ling'er was resting, so he took out the Palm Qiankun.
"Ling'er, this is really infuriating. Some people say that we took advantage of them. Why don't you stop setting up the formation and let everyone talk things out, so that we don't end up doing something wrong and still end up being the unpopular one."
Zhong Linger heard the resentment in his words, but this was Uncle Wuji who could not bear to be bullied, not the master, so it seemed that the situation would not be too bad, so she comforted him: "Second Uncle, don't worry, it's only been less than a day, and nothing can be seen yet. In two days, they will find that my method is the fastest to eliminate the demon."
Wu Chen Zhenren glared at his second apprentice brother. He was really out of his league. He was so old that he actually complained to a twelve-year-old boy. He snatched the palm of his hand and said, "Ling'er, you don't have to think too much. Don't pay attention to your second uncle."
“Master, are they very fast? Otherwise, Second Uncle wouldn’t be in such a hurry.”
"They are very fast. After all, there are so many of them."
Zhong Ling'er was stunned for a moment, then she said anxiously, "Master, stop them quickly. The Demon Sealing Array is only a fifth-grade array, and it has a limit. If the speed at which the array can eliminate monsters cannot keep up with the speed at which the monsters increase, the array will be broken, and the monsters cut by the wind blades will turn into demonic energy, which will be quickly absorbed by the other monsters. If things go wrong, a combined or even Mahayana monster will be raised."
Wu Chen Zhenren immediately looked across. Everyone heard Zhong Ling'er's words, and Master Hu's heart sank. Indeed, any formation has its limits, but it almost never happens. But now with so many people...
So Zhong Ling'er controlled the number of people in each team to 300, and set up two or three demon-sealing formations at each location, just to prevent the formation from reaching its limit?
He immediately took out the Palm of the Universe and shouted to Hu Qi, "Quick, tell them to stop throwing monsters into the formation. The formation is almost at its limit."
The rest of the people hurriedly contacted their apprentices or younger generations. The smart ones simply let them get close to the teleportation formation and retreat quickly if they saw the situation was not right.
But there were too many people, and getting everyone to stop was not something that could be done with just a few words. Some cultivators had finally controlled the monsters and moved them to a place not far from the formation, but then they heard someone say that they were not allowed to throw them into the formation. How could that be possible? That would be a waste of half a day's effort, so they decided to throw them in first.
The formation was broken in an instant, the formation pattern darkened, and a dense demonic energy rushed into the sky, followed by a pressure that penetrated into the soul, making people unable to move and wanting only to surrender.
