The elder of Shenxiao Palace looked solemn. Seeing Li Sisui effortlessly dodge several bolts of lightning within the slow sword domain, his expression darkened even more. This person was even more troublesome than his disciple had reported. Now it was almost certain that no one except the Palace Master could fight him, including himself. He hoped that this formation could trap him!
"Gather your energy and focus your mind to control the array flags. This person's techniques are strange, and a direct attack is unlikely to succeed. We just need to trap him and wait for the Palace Master to return before making a decision!"
The disciples were tense, nodded subconsciously, and gripped the array flags tightly with both hands, not daring to relax in the slightest.
Seeing the thunderclouds rolling overhead, with lightning flashing, resembling a scene of impending calamity, Li Sisui couldn't help but feel a sense of submission. He looked up and sneered. He had experienced real calamity clouds before, so why would he fear calamity clouds simulated by this formation? Moreover, he had experience breaking through the sect's protective formation, so even if he were in the midst of it, he wouldn't panic at all!
Li Sisui's plain robe billowed, and golden light flowed in his eyes. He focused his attention on the slow sword domain again. Not long after, the scene before him changed again. The rolling tribulation clouds disappeared again and turned into intertwined spiritual energy veins, which were strong and weak to each other!
The Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Array uses the illusionary thunder of the array as a guide, borrowing the power of thunder and fire from heaven and earth to suppress and bind evil spirits. The image of heavenly thunder has the characteristics of upholding righteousness and warding off evil. Furthermore, the array is formed by clouds, mist, thunder, and lightning, leaving no place for treacherous and evil spirits to hide. Those who are in the array suffer the torment of being struck by ten thousand thunderbolts, their will collapses, their bodies become paralyzed, and their movements become sluggish, thus achieving the binding effect!
This formation is different from the sect-protecting formation. Instead of spirit stones, the disciples' cultivation level is used. All disciples are divided into nine teams, each carrying a formation flag. They are positioned in one direction to form an encirclement. This formation flag is not an ordinary item. It is called the Lightning-Attracting Flag. As long as they cooperate properly, it is even more terrifying and enduring than the sect-protecting formation!
After all, the position of the sect-protecting formation will not change, while the Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Formation can make corresponding adjustments according to the position of the bound person, making it difficult for the bound person to escape the formation's range. Moreover, the cultivation of the disciples in the formation can be restored through pills, making the formation's power continuous and difficult to lose its power due to the depletion of cultivation!
Once this formation is formed, the trapped person will not only have to deal with the sudden appearance of heavenly lightning, but also try to break the formation in the clouds and mist. Moreover, because the formation moves with the trapped person, it makes breaking the formation even more difficult. If there are attackers outside the formation, there is almost no chance of survival. The trapped person will become a true turtle in a jar!
Seeing Li Sisui remain motionless, the elder of Shenxiao Palace felt a surge of wild joy. Then, seeing the formation gradually taking shape and the thunder rumbling, he could no longer contain his elation and exclaimed:
"Disciple receives the order. The Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Formation is complete. Activate the thunder!"
Upon hearing the elder's command, the disciples cooperated seamlessly. Clearly, this formation was not being used for the first time. As their steps shifted, the tribulation clouds within the formation grew thicker, almost tangible. Accompanied by gusts of wind, sand and stones flew, mirroring the scene of facing tribulation. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably find it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. With their minds clouded, breaking the formation would be a distant dream!
Fortunately, the scene before him was rather daunting compared to Li Sisui's experience. With thunderclouds gathering overhead, it was likely that Li Sisui would soon experience 'divine retribution' again!
Looking at the spiritual energy gathering points outside the slow sword domain, which were of varying strengths, it was clear that these gathering points were disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace. The Divine Firmament Palace truly lived up to its reputation as the number one sect in Wulipo. Among these disciples, the lowest cultivation level was at the eighth level of the Divine Illumination stage, and the highest level had even reached the first level of the Transformation stage. The foundation of the number one sect was indeed impressive!
After effortlessly dodging two bolts of heavenly lightning, Li Sisui suddenly launched an attack on the strongest point of spiritual energy. In order to preserve his divine sense, he did not expand his slow sword domain. Instead, he moved his feet and kept getting closer to that point of energy. After noticing Li Sisui's movements, the strongest point of energy also began to move, obviously seeing through Li Sisui's intentions at once!
That's interesting!
Faced with the agile 'array eye' in front of him, Li Sisui was both annoyed and amused. However, he had no time to play cat and mouse games. When he got close to the strongest gathering point, he suddenly expanded the slow sword domain to its maximum range. As the slow sword domain expanded, the person at the strongest gathering point instantly stopped, as if frozen in place. He obviously did not expect Li Sisui to have this trick up his sleeve!
But he wouldn't let this opportunity slip by. The next second, he shrank the domain again. However, thanks to his ability to move normally within the slow sword domain, he once again closed the distance to the strongest point. The latter reacted and was about to retreat at full speed, but he was once again trapped in the slow sword domain. After this repeated, the strongest point only moved back less than three zhang, but Li Sisui was already within reach!
When the strongest point finally realized something was wrong, it began to fully activate the Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Formation. Three bolts of heavenly lightning shot out from the clouds one after another, intertwining with each other in mid-air and condensing into a thick pillar of lightning, heading straight for Li Si's back. The thunder roared and the momentum was overwhelming!
Li Sisui's face showed a hint of excitement. This was the first time in his life that he had experienced the joy of fighting. Fighting against the heavens, fighting against the earth, fighting against people was endlessly enjoyable!
At this moment, Li Sisui was only a little over five zhang away from the strongest gathering point. He did not need to maintain the slow sword domain at its maximum range and naturally had spare power to control the transparent short sword. When the strongest gathering point was trapped in the slow sword domain for the last time, Li Sisui decisively summoned the transparent short sword that had been dormant for a long time!
A burst of golden light erupted from the white mark between Li Sixui's brows, and a transparent short sword silently slid out. With a thought, it maintained a steady speed, shooting towards the strongest point of convergence, unhurried and unwavering. At this moment, the strongest point of convergence, located within the slow sword domain, seemed to be caught in a vortex. Pulling forces surging from all directions pressed down on him, making it impossible for him to move an inch. Seeing a white light approaching, he didn't hesitate and said in a trembling voice:
"Senior! Spare his life!"
The transparent short sword aimed straight for the head of the strongest point of attack. If it struck, it would surely mean certain death and annihilation of the soul. In the pursuit of immortality through cultivation, no one dares to back down in the face of life and death...
As soon as he finished speaking, the transparent short sword was already less than a foot away from the strongest point's forehead. Li Sisui followed closely behind, walking slowly. Not far behind him, a bolt of lightning slowly struck him. Under the light of the lightning bolt, Li Sisui was like a god or demon descending to earth. Every word and action of his was filled with a world-destroying aura!
"Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Formation, dispel!"
The lightning pillar behind Li Si began to dissipate, and the clouds above his head gradually dimmed and disappeared. The surroundings, which were originally shrouded in mist and filled with flying sand and stones, began to clear up. In a few breaths, they returned to their original state: barren hills with occasional green grass and trees, and not far away was the Shenxiao Palace sect that he had seen earlier!
The strongest focal point within the Nine Thunder Binding Ghost Formation was actually that elder from the Divine Firmament Palace. At this moment, he stared intently at the transparent short sword between his brows, his mind trembling, his lips pale, and said:
"All of you, disperse! Put away your battle flags! Senior, senior, spare our lives!"
The elders of Shenxiao Palace actually backed down!
