Chapter 49: Desperate
Translated and Editted by: La0o9
Hearing something like that made all the cultivators here felt immense joy and motivation.
Yao Guang Sect’s traditions had continued for a few ten thousand years, so the benefits of being its stewards have always made others green with envy, it’s said to be 30% better than the benefits of being an Elder in normal sects.
All the cultivators looked at each other, all wanted to show their worth.
Inside the formation, the atmosphere has certainly changed.
He also knows how to raise morale, Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
As expected of Leng Tian Xing who comes from a large sect, even experienced with dealing with people, only needing a few words to fire up their morale.
To fight within a sea of demons, if you don’t have enough morale and motivation helping you, then you’ll soon be filled with feelings of despair.
Everyone has finished recovering.
Leng Tian Xing said: “Everyone prepare yourselves, as soon as the formation dissipate, we’ll move”
No one said anything to disagree as everyone stood up.
Gu Qing Shan also walked forward, silently judging the people here.
Wu Jin and Ma Liu at the front are overflowing with blood essence, their bodies show clear strength.
Wang Cheng on the left held his Long Sword in his hands, Luo Xiao on the right carried his giant Demon-head Blade on his shoulder.
As for Leng Tian Xing, he was only holding a fan, his expression still cold and composed as he stood silently with everyone.
Gu Qing Shan squints his eyes as he glanced around and made an evaluation.
———–two Martial Grandmasters, a Sword Cultivator, a Blade Master, a 5-Elemental user.
Together with him as the “formation user”, this line up isn’t too bad.
As Gu Qing Shan was thinking, all the cultivators had finished their final preparations.
The light of the formation was also flickering nonstop, about to dissipate.
Wu Jin shouted: “I’m going!”
“Go, we’ll be right behind you” Leng Tian Xing tapped his shoulder as encouragement.
Wu Jin roared, the muscles on his body all expanded greatly, the excess flowing blood essence escaped from his nose as two streams of white smoke.
He lowered his stance, pointing his shoulder out towards the outside of the formation.
“Mountain Levelling Rush!”
Shouting loudly, Wu Jin rushed out from the formation, using his tough shoulder pads to create a pathway several dozens meters long.
All the demons on the way were either knocked away or pierced through by the shoulder pad.
The demons that got stuck on the shoulder pads quickly got caught by Wu Jin, killed and threw away.
A few dozen meters later, as the rushing force died down, Wu Jin starts using his fists to attack.
“Consecutive punches! Die, all of you!”
As the demons weren’t prepared, a few demons with a monster body and beast heads were beaten to a pulp by Wu Jin.
One breath, two breaths, ten breaths
Hoh, hoh, hoh!
As Wu Jin breathed out a stream of white smoke, his barrage stopped.
After a burst of strength like that, he’s already a bit tired.
“Next is me”
Ma Liu changed places with him, his body turned into a hulking giant, holding a metal staff in hand, he knocked down demons left and right while advancing.
At this time, Wang Cheng and Luo Xiao had already drew their weapons and jumped out at the same time.
Slash after slash of both Sword and Blade, cutting the demons on both sides of Wu Jin and Ma Liu into showers of blood.
Gu Qing Shan ran after them without any hesitation, with the formation plate in hand, he lightly shouted: “Great spirit of the earth, heed my call, break!”
Layer upon layer of demons that were rushing them immediately all fell down.
Under them, the ground broke into near bottomless crevasses, buried and stopped the demons’ movement.
Leng Tian Xing was surprised.
This formation user, even though his cultivation isn’t that high, he is able to command the formations at will, quite adept at what he does.
And a great help.
“A chance!”
Leng Tian Xing raised his fan and casted a spell without hesitation.
“Frost Blade True Slash!”
Strings of white emitting bone-chilling frost suddenly appeared in front of the group.
Just like a harvest, the strings quickly cut down a large area of demons at once.
The horde of demons just around them was quickly cleaned out, reducing the group’s pressure.
Just as that happened, Gu Qing Shan had finished preparing the next formation as he put the plate in front of himself, both hands quickly making the signs
“Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, Heaven Earth Spirit Funnel!”
The spirit energy light turned into a string and coiled around the 6 of them.
“What! A mobile Spirit Funnel!?” Leng Tian Xing exclaimed.
All the cultivators were surprised, then as they found their spirit energy recovering, the surprise turned into joy.
Wu Jin laughed heartily: “Haha, great formation user! If we make it back alive, I’ll definitely take you as my good brother!”
Wang Cheng is a cold-faced swordsman, shaking off the black blood on his sword he said: “How quick!”
Normally, a Spirit Funnel could only be stationary, as it was moved it would very quickly lose the effectiveness.
Only formation users of the highest caliber could create a temporary small-scale Spirit Funnel that could be moved.
Gu Qing Shan’s actions shocked everyone here.
No one could look down on him again.
Formation is the second hardest to learn of the 6 arts.
While the hardest would be Divination.
To master both formation and Divination, it’s the same as trying to climb against a waterfall and dig a hole in the sky at the same time.
On average,out of 100 cultivators with decent talent, 5-6 of them could reach Golden Core realm.
But if the same 100 cultivators were to try and learn formation or Divination, then not even one would succeed.
This is one of the main reasons why Gong Sun Zhi is regarded so highly in history.
“Good”
Leng Tian Xing also complimented, his left hand creating hand signs, his right waving the fan as he cast another spell.
“Soul Claiming Frost Blade!”
As the air became twisted, crescent-shaped ice blades flew out, cutting through the wave of demons chasing behind them.
They kept on moving just like that, very quickly already passed the halfway mark.
“We’re close!”
Said Leng Tian Xing as he saw the two martial artists already showing signs of fatigue on their faces, to motivate them.
Everyone felt relieved.
Gu Qing Shan looked around, suddenly reminded them: “Wang Cheng, Luo Xiao, you two are too far, it’s dangerous!”
The Swordsman and Blademaster was a bit too deep into the horde of demons, getting further and further away from the group as they fought.
They’ve already gotten out of Gu Qing Shan’s formation range.
As soon as Wang Cheng heard that, he turned around, hesitated a bit before hearing Leng Tian Xing shout: “Come back!”
Wang Cheng immediately acted, wanting to get back.
But it was too late.
A giant Demon Hand sprouted from the ground, grabbing Wang Cheng and crushed him into a ball of flesh.
A sharp, powerful Sword Cultivator died, just like that.
His Longsword was still covered in blood, flew through the sky and almost fell into the endless horde of demons.
Right at that moment, Gu Qing Shan reached out his hand, moved the spirit energy in his body to control Wang Cheng’s sword from afar and retrieved it.
On the other side, the Blademaster Luo Xiao was already heading back, suddenly his leg was grabbed by a half-sized Crimson Gold demon and fell down.
Almost immediately as he fell, Luo Xiao’s head was bitten off by a dog demon, without being able to even scream for help.
The dog demon was afraid it might get its food stolen and ran away as soon as it bit off the head.
The other demons also quickly rushed up, ripping apart Luo Xiao’s body.
As the smell of blood got around, the demons once again let out a frenzy screech.
More and more demons are coming.
As two cultivators died, the pressure on the rest of them increased exponentially.
In just a few moments, both Ma Liu and Wu Jin’s body were already covered in blood with wounds all over.
Gu Qing Shan felt nervous and asked: “How close are we?”
Leng Tian Xing hesitated to answer: “We’re just a little more away, do you want to try rushing there at once?”
Gu Qing Shan looked at the two martial cultivators and answered in a low voice: “We can’t, the demons know how to read the situation, if we simply rush forward, they’ll be prepared”
The turned the formation plate and shouted: “Water, Wind, Mist, Earth, Green River Sky Hidden Formation!”
This formation can only be used twice, after this, there won’t be any left for them to hide from the demons.
As the formation plate light up, it concentrates the spirit essence of the world.
Water, Wind, Mist, Earth, the four elements arranged themselves in a unique way, as the formation was formed.
Just like that, the cultivators that were in trouble disappeared right under the demons’ eyes.
