Chapter 60: 60 Array within an Array
Lin Shiming dared not delay, his hands forming seals once again.
Vines grew wildly across the sky towards the Huang Family cultivators, surpassing the previous attempt in quantity, now truly resembling a sea of growth.
The wooden vines, one batch after another, dense and unending, a portion burned only for more to grow in its place, seemingly without limit.
However, seeing no Snake Vine Flowers spring forth again, they ceased to pay attention.
In their eyes, Lin Shiming must be running out of Spiritual Power and could only catalyze ordinary wooden vines now.
The sand and storm of the Five Extreme Deathly Winds Formation blocked most of the Divine Sense, preventing observation from that sense as well.
The Golden Winged Mantis and Red-haired Demon Monkey appeared on the battlefields of the two Five Element Spirit Breaking Formations, persistently causing a nuisance.
Their comical stone-throwing act was nothing short of a humiliating provocation to the Huang Family cultivators.
Yet this Red-haired Spirit Beast Monkey, who was quick and had a strong leaping ability, only knew how to throw stones from a distance, never engaging in close combat.
Meanwhile, Lin Shiming had not appeared, his figure concealed by the vines and most of his Divine Sense blocked by the Five Extreme Deathly Winds Formation.
For a moment, it seemed as though Lin Shiming had completely immersed himself in recovering Spiritual Energy.
Naturally, this seemed reasonable because, in their view, a Qi Cultivation Seventh Level cultivator would indeed exhaust their Spiritual Energy faster.
The two Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators from the Huang Family increased their attack pace as well.
However, in a moment, the vines dispersed, and a Purple Spirit Sword appeared in the sky.
A massive wave of Spiritual Power fluctuations instantly alarmed everyone.
It was Lin Shiming's Spirit Talisman; he had been activating the talisman while the wooden vines blocked the view.
"Second Grandpa, attack!" Although Lin Shiming was aware that his third grandmother Lin Yushui might not hold on, he still didn't command the talisman to attack the two Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators; that would be meaningless.
If they couldn't break through, it was useless!
The key to breaking the formation now was whether they could kill all the opposing Qi Cultivation Ninth Level cultivators and then support Lin Yushui.
The latter immediately understood and sent his Five Elements Spell towards the opponent's Five Element Spirit Breaking Formation.
The spells from the Huang Family at that moment all turned into Earth Wall Technique, Water Shield Technique, Golden Shield Technique, and Fire Shield Technique!
They had but one thought: to hold on.
Various spells instantly interwove, with dazzling light continuously emerging.
And at that moment, Lin Shiming's talisman-bearing Spirit Sword also slashed forward, carrying a vast expanse of Sword Qi, chopping down fiercely.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the unstoppable Sword Qi brought destruction, and the Sword Light continued to slash horizontally, directly killing one of the cultivators.
The Formation instantly shattered, and the Lin Family elders, including Lin Yuqi, began their second round of spell bombardment.
In just a few breaths, all Qi Cultivation Ninth Level cultivators were annihilated.
At this time, the Five Element Spirit Breaking Formation directly faced one of the Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators.
"Kill Huang Lingling first; he's the one who recently broke through," shouted Lin Yushui from behind, her originally calm face now replaced by pallor and madness.
Her hands were covered in the blood she hawked up, yet one Spirit Banner after another continued to unfurl in her grasp.
She paired this with the Five Extreme Deathly Winds Formation's stormy assault on the remaining cultivator, preventing them from aiding Huang Lingling.
Lin Shiming once again directed his talisman-bearing Spirit Sword towards Huang Lingling.
But even though the latter had only recently achieved Foundation Establishment, and despite the suppression of a Third Rank Formation,
It was still somewhat difficult for Lin Shiming with his current strength to resist a Foundation Establishment cultivator by wielding a talisman.
Fortunately, the incredible power of the Five Elements Spirit Breaking Formation, assembled by Lin Yuqi and others, along with the pressure of the Deathly Winds Formation, managed to suppress Huang Lingling, who was at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment.
He became anxious, continually bombarding the Five Elements Spirit Breaking Formation with a Third Rank Heavenly Sword, consecrated not long ago.
But as his speed slowed, Lin Shiming's talisman was already slicing over.
The terrifying Sword Light deeply shocked him, while internally he furiously cursed Huang Lishan for losing a talisman earlier.
"Licheng, only by joining forces do we stand a chance!" Huang Lingling pleaded unwillingly for help.
The other person also nodded fiercely, swallowing an elixir, and in an instant, his True Yuan burst forth, even braving the storm as he charged towards Lin Shiming and the others.
The terrifying Foundation Establishment Spirit Might weighed on Lin Yuqi and the others.
It caused everyone from the Lin Family to frown, realizing they had underestimated the strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Lin Shiming's face also changed drastically, holding numerous Defense Talismans in his hand, and also an Earth Escape Talisman as a last resort for escape.
Huang Lingling was overjoyed, as his Third Rank Flying Sword was also fiercely driven, transforming the countless True Yuan into intense Spirit Light, instantly enlarging the sword several times and slashing towards Lin Yuqi.
"Go!" Lin Yushui spat out another mouthful of blood, with her Spirit Art striking out again, creating countless deadly wind storms wildly swirling towards Huang Licheng, blocking his way forward.
However, in the next moment, Huang Licheng let out a sinister laugh, turned his sword around, and slashed towards Lin Yushui!
This moment undoubtedly shocked everyone.
Not a single person had expected that Huang Licheng would actually feign a blow one way and strike another.
Even Huang Lingling had been deceived, abandoning his defense to choose a death-like full-force attack.
The terrifying Spirit Might pressed down entirely on Lin Yushui, and the Spirit Art she had cast, being driven by a Formation, was completely unable to be as responsive as her own cultivation, to control as she pleased.
Huang Licheng with his full Foundation Establishment force arrived in front of Lin Yushui in the blink of an eye.
But what puzzled Huang Licheng was that he didn't see the panicked look in Lin Yushui's eyes.
On the contrary, it was resolute, determined, and cold!
And even crazier!
Suddenly, a completely different kind of Formation flag appeared in Lin Yushui's hand.
Huang Licheng immediately felt unsettled, sensing something very wrong—it was a formation within a formation!
But he couldn't figure it out, how could Lin Yushui, merely a Qi Cultivation Ninth Level, deploy two Third Rank Formations, and how could a Second Rank Formation kill him?
"Your Huang Family, merely a century-old minor clan, how could you understand the heritage and spirit of our Lin Family?" Lin Yushui's crazed gaze was filled with disdain.
The Lin Family belonged to the Purple Mansion lineage, and even though it had fallen, it still had the legacy of the once Purple Mansion Family.
Then she pressed the Formation flag into the ground, sinking it deep beneath the surface!
The Formation that appeared at this moment was a Fire Attribute Formation.
The Formation was only of Second Rank Supreme Grade, but this Second Rank Supreme Grade Formation was neither a trapping nor a Killing Formation.
It was a Self-Destructive Formation!
Huang Licheng frantically retreated, but it was too late.
The terrifying fire-red Spirit Light exploded, engulfing both Lin Yushui and Huang Licheng within it.
The intact cliff face was directly blasted apart, falling into the abyss.
On the other side, Lin Yuqi and the others finally broke through Huang Lingling's defense, with Lin Shiming's Purple Mansion talisman striking down another person! Discover more content on m-vl-em-pyr
This person was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator!
Although he was just at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, he was still far stronger than any other cultivator from the Lin Family.
After the attack, Lin Shiming collapsed to the ground, having exhausted his last bit of Spiritual Energy with that final sword strike.
Lin Yuqi and the other four also heaved a great sigh of relief.
The successive fall of the Huang Family's people also affected Huangyun Qi, who was fighting Lin Xianzhi; his face filled with grief, knowing the trend had turned and that the Lin Family would be the final victor.
Ignoring Lin Xianzhi's sword, he charged towards Lin Shiming.
Seeking to strike down Lin Shiming with a single blow!
His speed was incredibly fast, crossing an unknowable distance in the blink of an eye!
The overwhelming pressure from a late-stage Foundation Establishment instantly weighed down on Lin Shiming, making it hard for him to even breathe.
