2570 Conspiracy
“Let’s start from here. ” Qin shaozhong pretended to turn around a few times and pointed at a light pillar.
Ling Chuxi almost laughed out loud. Although she could not find the eye of the array, she could see that the position Qin shaozhong had chosen was one of the strongest defenses of the array.
Anyway, there was a group of cannon fodders waiting to fight, so she was too lazy to talk.
Qin shaozhong pulled out his long sword and gathered the sword light. The others also circulated their vital Qi with all their might. Qin shaozhong’s strength was one level higher than theirs, so it was easy to tell who was giving it their all and who was deliberately slacking off. Therefore, they didn’t dare to hold back their strength.
“Be careful, save your strength.” Ling Chuxi said to Zi Yin and the others through telepathy.
Zi Yin and the others were slightly startled. They subconsciously held back their strength and only put on an act. Other people might be afraid of Qin shaozhong, but they had nothing to be afraid of.
“Break!” Qin shaozhong let out a clear shout and hacked towards the formation.
Immediately after, dozens of sword gleams covered the sky and also slashed over.
Thunder rumbled, and a powerful wave of energy visible to the naked eye shot back at everyone.
“Pfft!” A few of the weaker young men were knocked to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. They were clearly injured.
The rest of the people were also forced to retreat from the impact. Ling Chuxi and the others also pretended to retreat a few steps.
Qin shaozhong also took two steps back and glanced at Ling Chuxi. He did not say anything. The two of them were well aware that they had not used their full strength when the others were fighting with their lives. They were just putting on an act.
Qin shaozhong didn’t take Zi Yin and the others to heart. With their strength, they weren’t a threat to him at all. If he wanted to preserve his strength, he would let them do so.
“What a powerful formation!” Situ kuangjian’s face paled as he spoke.
It was obvious that situ kuangjian had also given it his all. Ling Chuxi secretly shook her head. From his previous actions, it could be seen that situ kuangjian could be considered to be completely loyal to Qin shaozhong. However, Qin shaozhong still did not trust him and had even tricked him.
“The formation has already loosened a little. Let’s put in some more effort and break this formation in one go.” Qin shaozhong pretended to be tired. His chest was heaving up and down violently. He coughed twice and said while covering his chest.
Everyone looked towards the formation. Sure enough, those six pillars of light were much dimmer than before. The formation had already loosened a little.
“Alright, let’s do it again.” Situ kuangjian said as he shook his head.
Everyone perked up and attacked the formation again.
With a muffled boom, the light of the formation flickered and swayed unsteadily. The defense became weaker and weaker, but the force of the rebound became stronger and stronger.
Under the continuous full-force attacks, many people were already exhausted and their bodies were on the verge of collapse. However, under the temptation of high-level spiritual herbs, they still used their last strength to continue attacking the array.
Ling Chuxi knew that the moment the formation was broken, they would also be exhausted.
Finally, the pillar of light flickered and broke apart as if it had a physical form.
“It’s open, it’s finally open!” Someone cheered in surprise. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a chaotic flow of astral winds surged out from the formation like sharp wind blades.
“Be careful!” Ling Chuxi subconsciously called out. Such chaotic gales were several times stronger than spatial turbulence. Although Ling Chuxi’s cultivation was already at the middle stage of the sage level, she still did not dare to let her guard down.
Ling Chuxi did not expect that there would be such a terrifying turbulent flow of wind blades in the array. She circulated her vital Qi with all her might to protect Zi Yin and the others and brought them to retreat in a hurry. No one noticed the sinister smile that flashed in Qin shaozhong’s eyes.
