154: Chapter 154 Introduction to Formations, Practical Application

As time passed, Lin Xiao's territory not only grew continuously stronger in strength, but even the Military Formation Technique finally ushered in a Breakthrough.

Xue Ying, Wang Wu, and Zhang Yu, these legendary grade Troop Types.

After their own attributes reached 40 million and their growth rate began to slow down, they spent more energy on studying the Military Formation Technique.

With legendary grade quality, the technological blessing of the legendary grade barracks, plus S-grade Outstanding Talent, their Comprehension Ability became extremely astonishing, giving them the foundation to understand Advanced Military Formation Techniques.

Just like that, it was only after more than a month that they truly made their entry.

After entering the Formation, it was time for drill.

One person of course could not form a Formation.

Xue Ying and the others also told Lin Xiao the requirements for setting up the Formation.

Advanced Military Formation Techniques were extremely complex and had very high requirements.

Normally speaking, it required at least one thousand Epic Grade Level 5 Troop Types, all initiated in the Formation, to barely set up the Formation.

Lin Xiao's territory definitely did not have this condition.

The Human Race Troop Types in the territory only added up to a little over a thousand. They were not one Troop Type, but three. Formations and Troop Types had compatibility; gathering all of them to study the same Formation was obviously unrealistic.

Fortunately, legendary grade Troop Types could greatly reduce the Formation requirements.

According to Xue Ying and the others, taking a legendary grade Troop Type as the head, commanding nine Epic Grade Troop Types, formed the most basic Formation unit.

Ten Formation units could then form a Formation.

That meant at least ten legendary grade Troop Types, plus ninety Epic Grade Troop Types, were needed to set up the Formation.

Of course, the more Formation units participating in forming the Formation, the better.

The more Formation units there were, the stronger the power of the Formation.

Moreover, everyone could receive the blessing of the Formation. Even if someone accidentally died in battle, others could quickly fill the vacancy and maintain the operation of the Formation.

"Want people, right? Simple."

Lin Xiao didn't say another word and immediately recruited enough manpower from the legendary grade barracks.

For over a thousand Human Race Troop Types, wanting to form a Formation with all of them would require over a hundred legendary grade Troop Types. Lin Xiao definitely couldn't recruit that many people.

Therefore, he only equipped the three major Troop Types with ten legendary grade Troop Types each to first see the effect after they formed the Formation.

After these days of plundering, recruiting twenty-seven legendary grade Troop Types was still achievable.

These newly recruited legendary grade Troop Types instantly became the busiest people in the territory. On one hand, they had to balance their own Cultivate so that their strength wouldn't fall too far behind others; on the other hand, they had to accept the duck-feeding education of Xue Ying and the others.

Wanting to master Advanced Military Formation Techniques was inherently incomparably difficult.

Even with the guidance of Xue Ying and the others lowering the learning difficulty, it wouldn't be too much easier.

Thus, curses kept ringing out in the territory.

"What are you good for?"

"Is the brain on your neck a decoration?"

"Wooden block, you don't understand after being taught once, and you are still completely clueless after ten times."

"You are the worst batch I've ever led."

The legendary grade Troop Types scolded by Xue Ying and the others also held a belly full of fire in their hearts. Having no other way, they could only study even harder.

When they were truly dizzy from studying, they would make a trip to the enlightenment mountain, or soak in the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Lake.

Then, with more abundant spirit, they continued to plunge into the study of the Formation.

It had to be said that with the guidance of predecessors, the effect was still very obvious. In just ten days, these newly recruited legendary grade Troop Types had made their entry into the Formation.

Next was the drill.

Each legendary grade Troop Type needed to command nine Epic Grade Troop Types to form the most basic Formation unit.

This step, relatively speaking, was not that difficult.

Those Epic Grade Troop Types did not need to have a deep understanding of the Formation; as long as they knew how to cooperate and would obey orders, that was enough.

After becoming proficient in the operation of the Formation units, it was the final Formation of the array.

Ten Formation units cooperated with each other to make the Formation completely formed.

After a period of stumbles and grinding, finally, the three major Formations truly took shape, initially possessing combat effectiveness.

However, after the three Military Formation Techniques formed their arrays, Lin Xiao was unsure as to how much power they could exert, and it still had to be verified through practical combat.

Among Level 5 Lords, a suitable opponent could no longer be found.

He also couldn't invade Sixth-order Lords.

This, in essence, was a protection for lower-tier lords.

After all, when a Sixth-order Lord invaded a Level 5 Lord, as long as the latter persisted for a while, they could pull reinforcements; but when a Level 5 Lord invaded a Sixth-order Lord, where would reinforcements come from...

Of course, such a mechanism was not very convenient for a Super-spec Lord like Lin Xiao.

Fortunately, at this time, the Fourteenth Layer of the Void Land connected with the territory.

"Coming right on time."

Lin Xiao's spirit roused.

The Fourteenth Layer of the Void Land was undoubtedly stronger than the vast majority of Level 5 Lords, serving precisely as the object to drill the Formation.

Lin Xiao brought the three Military Formations and came to the east side of the territory.

"Who goes first?"

Hearing this, Xue Ying, Wang Wu, and Zhang Yu looked at each other.

"Let's go first." Wang Wu took a step forward and said in a deep voice.

Seeing this, Xue Ying and Zhang Yu did not argue and tacitly retreated backwards.

Wang Wu's qualifications were older than theirs, and the Black Armor Soldiers were also the first Troop Type in the territory.

Lin Xiao also nodded.

The Black Armor Soldiers were both offensive and defensive, especially in defense, far exceeding other Troop Types. The Black Tortoise Return to Origin Formation that matched them possessed the same characteristics.

Even if any accident occurred in the Formation, they could retreat completely unscathed.

"Then let's begin."

Lin Xiao didn't say much more and flicked a void barrier breaker out.

"Swoosh ~"

The void barrier breaker was wrapped in a massive force, instantly crossing a distant distance and slamming into the invisible barrier separating the territory and the Void Land.

"Roar ~"

The Void Monsters on the edge of the Void Land quickly discovered that the barrier had disappeared.

They were attracted by the rich vitality in the territory, and without hesitation, they rushed out, increasing in number.

Soon, it converged into an incomparably massive monster tide, killing toward Lin Xiao's territory from the sky and the ground.

"This quantity should be around ten million, right?"

Lin Xiao gazed into the distance at the monster tide.

The Fourteenth Layer of the Void Land was far more terrifying than the Thirteenth Layer of the Void Land.

Not only had the number of monsters doubled, but the strength of the monsters had also grown quite a bit.

Although there were no Sixth-order monsters, among these ten million Void Monsters, the number of Level 5 monsters alone was no less than two million, among which there were even hundreds of thousands of elite monsters.

The threat of the latter was far above the former.

The number of giant monsters was also more than in the Thirteenth Layer of the Void Land.

One giant monster like a meat mountain walked slowly in the monster tide, and no surrounding Void Monsters dared to approach.

Facing such a massive monster tide, their opponents were only a mere one hundred people.

Facing the terrifying monster tide, Wang Wu and the others had no panic on their faces.

"Form the array."

With an order, these one hundred Black Armor Soldiers formed ten Formation units at the fastest speed, and then combined into the Black Tortoise Return to Origin Formation.

A force as vast as an abyss echoed within the military Formation.

A massive black tortoise also simultaneously emerged above the military Formation.
