323: The power of [Ten Absolute Formations]!

In just an instant, nearly a third of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race had lost their combat capability.

Three or four others, who were closer to Nezha and bore the brunt of the Samadhi True Fire's damage, died outright.

Nine Breaths Qi Cultivation provided a boost, and with Jiang Yuan's ample Star Power, Nezha once again expanded the range of the Samadhi True Fire.

This time, even more of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race were engulfed by the Samadhi True Fire.

Nezha, holding his Fire Tipped Spear in both hands, continuously slew members of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race.

Most of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members touched by the Samadhi True Fire were utterly incapable of resisting Nezha's attacks.

At the same time, Zhao Gongming also arrived here.

Without hesitation, he mounted his black tiger and charged into the battlefield.

In just five short minutes, more than half of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race had been slaughtered.

The less than ten remaining members of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race on the field now looked at Nezha with terror in their eyes.

Compared to Zhao Gongming, who arrived later, they feared Nezha's power even more.

Whether it was Nezha's earlier one-against-many or his later one-against-many, he displayed terrifying Deterrence.

In comparison, Zhao Gongming, who arrived belatedly, did not possess such great Deterrence.

However, Zhao Gongming was also enjoying himself at this moment.

Various lightning-attribute skills were copied one by one, including long-range attacks, close-quarters attacks, and even lightning-attribute skills that enhanced weapons, armor, and the body.

This was incredibly satisfying.

Although he didn't need the weapons, as he had his Steel Whip, having an additional method was still very good.

Zhao Gongming rather liked the method of imbuing weapons with lightning-attribute paralysis and explosive properties.

"Retreat!"

There were now only seven members of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race remaining on the field.

The sole surviving squad leader now had no choice but to decide to lead his clansmen in a retreat.

They had initially thought Nezha's condition wasn't very good, and his injuries were gradually increasing, so they believed they could defeat him directly here.

However, their opponent fought with increasing ferocity, and his injuries were gradually recovering.

In this situation, not retreating would truly be foolish.

Lotus Avatar has the ability to slowly heal injuries.

However, because Nezha had barely sustained any injuries before.

Even in the Dream Tower, he lost combat capability instantly due to challenging higher levels.

Therefore, the effect of Lotus Avatar had never been demonstrated.

"Is it possible to make a set of armor or something for Nezha and the others?" Jiang Yuan, looking at Nezha, who was like a god of war on the field, unconsciously muttered to himself.

"That's certainly possible."

However, Jiang Yuan forgot that not only he, but also Old Master, were not participating in the battle at this moment.

Old Master nodded from the side, seemingly very interested in Jiang Yuan's suggestion.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Yuan paused, then realized, and looked at Old Master with a smile: "Since Old Master has an idea, then I'll leave this matter to you, how about it?"

"Hmm?"

Old Master turned to look at Jiang Yuan, and upon seeing Jiang Yuan's smiling face, he instantly understood Jiang Yuan's thoughts.

"You little rascal."

Old Master playfully scolded him, and Jiang Yuan chuckled: "Isn't it just that Nezha has too many weapons? I still need to make other weapons, so armor-making can only be left to the all-powerful Old Master."

"Alright, since you praised me."

Old Master nodded with a hint of self-importance, then couldn't help but laugh.

Old Master did not agree rashly; he had already had some ideas for Nezha's equipment.

Of course, it wasn't Nezha's original equipment like the Golden Brick or the embroidered ball, but rather the equipment worn on the body.

Or, rather, standardized equipment.

Once made, it could be used not only by Nezha but also by Zhao Gongming, Shi Ji, as well as Mu Qianshan and himself.

However, due to different focuses, two different sets of standardized equipment would need to be prepared.

Hmm, I'm starting to get some ideas.

I'll prepare them when I get back.

The materials required for this standardized equipment should not be too expensive.

Old Master nodded slightly, then looked into the distance.

The Thunder Elemental Spirit Race had already begun to retreat.

However, a group of Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members appeared from the direction they were retreating.

"Trouble, trouble."

Old Master chuckled, but Jiang Yuan's expression was solemn.

He and Old Master were standing on a protruding rock on the cliff face.

As the saying goes, standing high allows one to see far, and what Old Master could see, he naturally also saw.

The Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members arriving from that direction were clearly the main force.

"It seems they have the same idea as us."

Jiang Yuan's expression was grave, but Old Master merely lightly stroked the horsetail whisk in his hand.

"Now is the time for your formations to shine."

With Old Master's words, Jiang Yuan instantly reacted.

The main force of the Human Race was also about to arrive.

Furthermore, in this narrow terrain, three or four formations would essentially be enough.

He had seven, so he would split them into two sections.

Let them come and chase.

Lure the enemy into a trap.

Jiang Yuan smiled and gave Old Master a thumbs-up: "It's still you who's the best!"

"Naturally."

Old Master proudly raised his head, what a joke, did he really think his strength was cultivated honestly?

After making the decision, Jiang Yuan directly shouted, telling Nezha and the others not to continue pursuing.

At the same time, due to the activation of Nine Breaths Qi Cultivation again, and without those few major Star Power consumers this time, Jiang Yuan's internal Star Power was sufficient.

Three red quality cards appeared in his hand, and three large formations were directly set up in the narrowest part, completely blocking the path.

Unless they could pass through the sky, they would inevitably have to enter the formations.

Three formations, that's enough to give them a hard time!

Nezha, Shi Ji, and Zhao Gongming, upon hearing Jiang Yuan's voice, immediately turned back.

The Unicorn Dark Smoke Beast was very fast, and in a short while, it brought Shi Ji back to Jiang Yuan's side.

Although the black tiger was a bit slower, it also returned quickly.

After all, the black tiger was still faster than the army of Thunder Elemental Spirit Race.

"Let's go."

Jiang Yuan glanced at the three hidden large formations, then smiled and turned to leave.

After passing through a relatively wide area, four more red quality cards appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand.

The remaining four large formations were also left here.

"I wonder how much damage they can inflict on them."

Jiang Yuan chuckled and continued to walk back.

He had no intention of leading the charge in such a large-scale battle between two races.

As everyone knows, I, Jiang Yuan, have no combat capability.

Once the two races officially began fighting, he would just let Nezha, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji enter the fray.

Seven large formations!

The other seven large formations besides the Heaven Absolute Formation, Blood Transformation Formation, and Soul Decapitation Formation.

Jiang Yuan had also thought about completing all of the Ten Absolute Formation.

But the problem was that while the Blood Transformation Formation was fine, he had tried to create the Heaven Absolute Formation and Soul Decapitation Formation twice.

He could vaguely feel that it seemed to be because the card quality was not high enough, so he couldn't successfully create them.

Perhaps when he could create red quality cards, he should be able to create these two formation cards?

Jiang Yuan retreated all the way and quickly rendezvoused with the Human Race army.

Calling it an army, in reality, there were only a little over two hundred people.

Roughly equal to the number of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race.

However, the problem was that the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race was stronger in combat in this terrain, so the Human Race was always at a disadvantage.

"How is it up ahead?"

Upon seeing Jiang Yuan return, Left Shepherd Forest was also a little surprised and asked Jiang Yuan.

"The Thunder Elemental Spirit Race, like us, also came with the intention of annihilating us."

Jiang Yuan didn't say much; he believed they would understand what that single sentence meant.

"Then why did you retreat?"

Someone next to Left Shepherd Forest stepped forward and asked somewhat strangely.

His tone seemed to carry some questioning, but Jiang Yuan didn't mind and still looked at Left Shepherd Forest.

"I set up two trap cards ahead; we'll wait for them to arrive and then we can attack them while they're tired."

Jiang Yuan smiled: "If nothing unexpected happens, those two cash cards should be able to eliminate a fifth of their forces?"

Jiang Yuan wasn't sure, as he had indeed not experienced it before.

But what he could confirm was that the small number of Element Spirit Race members with Da Liang Initial Stage and Daliang strength among the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race should not be able to survive two formations.

"Hmm, even if they can't eliminate a fifth of their forces, rendering them combat-incapable is still possible."

After some thought, Jiang Yuan finally changed his words.

It's better not to speak too confidently.

"Are you sure?"

Left Shepherd Forest's face showed a hint of joy, and he asked again.

"Of course."

Jiang Yuan nodded, confidently.

Fan Yuexian and Bai Wanbao, as vanguards, had already led their squad members back to the main army.

Fan Yuexian's face was a bit unsightly; she had clearly said she could keep up, but she encountered Jiang Yuan and the others returning before she even arrived.

After receiving Jiang Yuan's reply, she could only follow Jiang Yuan back.

As a vanguard, she returned to her own main force without even seeing the enemy's main force.

This truly made her blush.

But fortunately, everyone's attention was on Jiang Yuan now, and no one was paying attention to her.

However, she also made up her mind that she would definitely kill the strongest opponent later!

Just now, she also heard Bai Wanbao say that Jiang Yuan's Card Spirit, Nezha, had actually killed Smiley Ann and Velimir.

One must know, their strength was not weak!

And they were killed by Jiang Yuan and the others so quickly?

Although she was confident that her speed couldn't compare to Jiang Yuan's, her speed wasn't slow either.

But before she even arrived, Nezha had already taken down two.

This indeed made her feel a bit embarrassed.

They were all vanguards, after all.

"Then we'll stand by and wait for them here?" Left Shepherd Forest tentatively asked Jiang Yuan.

"I suggest we go behind the second trap I left; this way, we can rush them without giving them time to prepare and break through their lines in one go."

Jiang Yuan's expression was serious: "And with the first round of trap cards as a lesson, they'll definitely be much more careful later."

"So you mean for us to act as bait, to lure them into charging at us impulsively."

Left Shepherd Forest smiled; after hearing Jiang Yuan say this, he instantly understood Jiang Yuan's meaning.

The Thunder Elemental Spirit Race, having had the upper hand for too long, had a sense of self-superiority when facing the Human Race.

This also led them to directly launch an attack if they saw the Human Race.

In this situation, if the Human Race was behind the second round of trap cards, it could essentially guarantee that they would trigger the second round of traps, further reducing their combat power.

"Alright."

Left Shepherd Forest smiled, his face seemingly blossoming like a chrysanthemum.

"Thanks to you, when I go back this time, I might even receive some military merit rewards."

Left Shepherd Forest smiled happily, after all, he was the leader; no matter whose idea it was, no matter who had the greatest credit, he would always get his share.

"Then I congratulate you in advance."

Jiang Yuan also smiled; he didn't care about military merit or anything like that.

A few days ago, Qin Boyuan was still saying that if they successfully drove back those Aquatic Race members this time, he would be the top contributor.

If they attacked into the Aquatic Race's Grotto-heaven, the merit would be increased by one.

If they counterattacked the Aquatic Race world, the merit would be even greater.

As the general, the leader of the army, personally spoke, Jiang Yuan naturally would not doubt the truthfulness of his words.

However, Qin Boyuan's words also hinted at him needing to quickly improve his strength, and he didn't know what that meant.

Jiang Yuan shook his head, throwing off that thought.

What was most important now was the upcoming battle with the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race.

Left Shepherd Forest gave the order to advance slowly.

Meanwhile, the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race had already entered the first round of formations.

The first round consisted of the Wind Roar Formation, Flame Array, and Red Sand Formation.

These were all simple, brutal attack-type formations.

Because the opponent had no psychological preparation for the first round, they easily entered.

Coupled with the large coverage area of the three formations, which essentially encompassed the entire path, almost everyone would enter.

In this situation, these three highly destructive formations were very suitable.

The Wind Roar Formation used wind and fire as blades, continuously attacking those within the formation.

In the Flame Array, flames burned; whether on the ground, underground, or in the air, there was no escaping the invasion of the flames.

In the Red Sand Formation, red sand swept through, leaving no blade of grass, like a sandblaster, turning any hit creatures into dust.

The Thunder Elemental Spirit Race entered the three formations, but it only took a moment for them to break through.

Especially the Red Sand Formation in the middle was broken first.

After all, it included the two strongest Thunder Elemental Spirit Race Students, Clemente and Kadinga.

The other two formations were also successively broken by powerful attacks.

It must be said that the attack intensity of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race was indeed off the charts.

Yet, even so, most of the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members with Da Liang Initial Stage strength in the team were completely wiped out.

Some of the Daliang died, and the rest were all injured.

Only the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members with Late Stage strength were better off, but many were also injured or had their equipment worn down.

Roughly estimated, this round of traps eliminated at least thirty Thunder Elemental Spirit Race members.

Although not dead, there were also more than ten who completely lost their combat capability.

In other words, this wave directly caused the Thunder Elemental Spirit Race to lose nearly a quarter of its combat power.

Such a loss, such a situation of failing before even starting, made Clemente, who was leading the team, livid.
