114: Multitasking

Lu Xingchen smiled slightly, clasped his hands together, and Spiritual Seals flew out quickly from his palms, then constructed a Spirit Formation.

Five minutes later, a Blazing Fire Formation appeared beside Lu Xingchen.

The Blazing Fire Formation, as its name suggests, can absorb the Spirit Power between heaven and earth and transform it into fireballs to attack enemies.

A Fourth-grade Spirit Array is enough to contend with a Martial Spirit Realm Expert!

As the Formation took shape, the Fourth-Grade Spirit Array Master was dumbfounded and exclaimed, "How is this possible? The time he took to construct a Fourth-grade Spirit Array was too short! Even if I've been immersed in this Dao for many years, it would still take me a quarter of an hour to construct this Blazing Fire Formation."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Big Brother, when are you going to chew on the city wall?"

Hearing this, he was full of embarrassment and cupped his hands towards Lu Xingchen.

"Young Friend Lu, I spoke out of turn. With your strength, you are fully qualified to join this operation. Let's keep the city wall to defend against Yao Beasts!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Thank you, Senior, for your recognition."

The Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, let's begin! The expert from the Cangxuan Sect arranged the Spirit Formation very cleverly, connecting three Fifth-grade Spirit Arrays and dozens of Fourth-grade Spirit Arrays together, allowing them to unleash immense power."

"To repair this massive Spirit Formation, we need to repair the smaller Spirit Formations sequentially in a very short time, which requires a huge consumption of Soul Power. Both of you are veteran Spirit Array Masters, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"As for Young Friend Lu, he can even be described as exceptionally gifted."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly: "Alright, let's begin!"

Shi Lei, Vice Hall Master of the Human Emperor Hall said solemnly, "The beast tide has been raging for three days, and the Yao Beasts' next attack could come at any moment. All you experts from the Cangxuan Sect, I need you to protect the city wall."

"If the Yao Beasts attack while the Spirit Array Great Masters are working, you must stop them!"

Li Gui nodded heavily: "No problem, leave this small matter to us!"

Lu Xingchen and the other two Fourth-Grade Spirit Array Masters followed the Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master to repair the Spirit Formation.

They walked from one corner of the city wall to the other, continuously releasing Spiritual Seals to mend the Spirit Formation.

At the same time, Li Gui and the other three, along with the experts from the City Lord's Mansion, guarded outside the city wall.

When Lu Xingchen had repaired the fifth Fourth-grade Spirit Array, the beast tide arrived!

Tens of thousands of Yao Beasts roared and charged out of the Heavenly Battle Forest, impacting the defensive line constructed by Shi Lei, Vice Hall Master of the Human Emperor Hall.

The strength of the Yao Beasts varied; there were second and third-tier ones, and also quite a few fourth-tier ones.

Although Tianhuo City's defenders numbered only over a thousand, they were all experts at the Great Martial Master Realm and above. The great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Lu Xingchen glanced at Li Gui and Li Hua, who were bravely fighting the enemy outside the city wall, and felt a surge of eagerness.

After all, in his eyes, these Yao Beasts were bright, shining experience points!

Noticing Lu Xingchen's distraction, the Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master shouted loudly, "Young Friend Lu, don't be affected by the battle outside. I know you care about these soldiers, but only by repairing the Great Spirit Formation can Tianhuo City have the power to protect itself and minimize losses as much as possible!"

Lu Xingchen was envious, but the Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master thought he was afraid.

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "I understand!" He then withdrew his gaze and focused entirely on mending the Spirit Formation.

Outside the city wall, the battle intensified.

Without the city wall as protection, Tianhuo City's defenders struggled immensely; people were getting injured, or even dying, every minute.

Fortunately, the intelligence of Yao Beasts was far inferior to that of humans.

They only knew to charge recklessly, while Tianhuo City's defenders cooperated with each other, stronger ones looking after weaker ones, and those in good condition caring for the injured.

Although many people were injured, the mortality rate was not very high.

Especially Shi Lei, Vice Hall Master of the Human Emperor Hall, he charged into the Yao Beast horde alone, unleashing immense destructive power.

Almost no Yao Beast could withstand his attacks.

Because he was a Martial King expert.

When Lu Xingchen had repaired the tenth Fourth-grade Spirit Array, the Fourth-Grade Spirit Array Master who had previously mocked him spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell to his knees.

The Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master's face darkened, and he shouted, "Wang Cheng, what are you doing?"

Wang Cheng propped himself up with both hands, his face filled with pain, and replied, "Li Feng, our Soul Power is exhausted. The consumption for repairing this Spirit Formation is too great!"

Hearing this, Li Feng's heart sank.

In this task, everyone had a clear division of labor and was indispensable. He had to control the three Fifth-grade Spirit Arrays and couldn't spare a hand to help Wang Cheng.

If Wang Cheng couldn't get up, the plan to repair the Spirit Formation would be declared a failure.

He couldn't help but curse.

"Damn it, we were so close to finishing!"

Just then, Lu Xingchen shouted loudly, "Li Feng, continue the operation, I'll take over the part Wang Cheng is missing!"

Hearing this, Li Feng was greatly surprised.

"Young Friend Lu, are you serious? Repairing two different Spirit Formations at the same time, multitasking, even I can't do that!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Li Feng, let me try! What if it works? We can't let the soldiers of Tianhuo City die in vain."

Li Feng's heart trembled, and he said in a deep voice, "Young Friend Lu, if you can truly do it, I will reward you with a precious treasure."

Of course, Lu Xingchen could do it.

With his powerful Soul Power!

Li Feng, a Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master, had Soul Power that only reached the Late Mortal Realm.

However, Lu Xingchen's Soul Power had already reached Mortal Realm Great Perfection.

The reason he hadn't been able to set up a Fifth-grade Spirit Array yet was because the System's profession experience value hadn't been maxed out.

But with his ability, controlling two Fourth-grade Spirit Arrays simultaneously was absolutely no problem.

The operation to repair the Great Spirit Formation continued.

Lu Xingchen took over Wang Cheng's task, multitasking, simultaneously repairing two Fourth-grade Spirit Arrays, but the quality did not suffer at all.

An hour later, all the small Spirit Formations were repaired.

Li Feng operated the Spirit Formation according to the array diagram left by the expert from the Cangxuan Sect, and the giant Spirit Formation covering the entire city wall finally began to function.

The repair operation was successful.

The city wall emitted a colorful glow, and the small Spirit Formations began to operate one after another.

Shi Lei, Vice Hall Master of the Human Emperor Hall looked up at the city wall, his heart filled with joy, and shouted, "Soldiers, we succeeded! The giant Spirit Formation is running again, your efforts were not in vain!"

"Now, fight alongside me, defeat this wave of beast tide, and our future pressure will be greatly reduced!"

For a time, the morale of Tianhuo City's defenders greatly increased.

After completing the Spirit Formation repair operation, Li Feng and the other Fourth-Grade Spirit Array Master both collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

This operation had almost drained their Soul Power; the intensity was too high!

Lu Xingchen, however, took out the sunset glow bow from his Storage Ring and rushed towards the defensive line.

Li Feng was greatly surprised and shouted, "Young Friend Lu, what do you want to do?"

"Go kill the enemy!" Lu Xingchen said indifferently.
