436: Grand formation and puppets

Hundreds of miles outside Sacred Emperor Mountain.

Li Changfeng, Xiao Buyu, I Want to Pilot a Gundam, and over a dozen Golden Core Players were all gathered together.

They all looked toward the south with the vigilance of facing a great enemy.

Li Changfeng had already released the news: "We are going to set up a Grand Array to deal with Feng Chuan."

Soon after, he received feedback from the players in the Yuyao Kingdom; Feng Chuan had indeed brought a Qingling Sect Cultivator and was heading north.

According to his plan, the Demon Race Outside the Wall would feign weakness to Feng Chuan and take the initiative to let him inside the wall.

In this way, they would face Feng Chuan directly.

"Are you nervous?"

Xiao Buyu suddenly asked.

Li Changfeng exhaled a turbid breath.

Feng Chuan was on his way, but no one knew when he would arrive.

This period was the most difficult to endure.

"Of course I'm nervous."

Li Changfeng looked up at the sky, feeling that the clouds were swirling rapidly, and the surrounding Qi was filled with a murderous aura.

This was the players' second time hunting Feng Chuan, and its significance was completely different from the first.

The first hunt was less of a hunt for Feng Chuan and more of a probe, while also trying to obtain the Spirit Beast meat of the Cloud-Swallowing Whale.

The players didn't need to face the pressure of Feng Chuan directly, nor did they intend to truly keep Feng Chuan there.

After all, he was a True Lord, and his explosive lethality was too great.

Therefore, the players only probed and utilized Feng Chuan back then.

Moreover, Feng Chuan didn't know much about the players either, so he also maintained a probing attitude and didn't go all out.

Even so, the players were extremely miserable; many Golden Cores were killed, their Respawn Points were blocked, and they almost collapsed.

But now, Li Changfeng and the others were going to truly keep Feng Chuan there.

To say they weren't nervous would be impossible.

"There is only one chance..."

Li Changfeng muttered, suddenly discovering that his hands were actually trembling.

With his Golden Core cultivation, his control over every inch of his skin should have been excellent, and he shouldn't have been affected by emotions.

But now he was indeed trembling just like a Mortal.

If an old Senior from the cultivation world were here, they would know at a glance that his heart was in chaos.

The secret of Sacred Emperor Mountain could not be kept forever, and Feng Chuan would not be tricked by the same strategy twice.

It could be said that this was the only opportunity they had the ability to plot against Feng Chuan.

Li Changfeng had initially thought that even if they failed, Feng Chuan would be trapped outside the wall, and the players could take the opportunity to plot against the Qingling Sect.

But after deep thought, one could realize that this was pure wishful thinking.

Once they failed, the Demon Race Outside the Wall would immediately change their stance, and Feng Chuan would be free to come and go.

After all, he was a True Lord.

The more he thought about it, the more Li Changfeng felt that this matter was a bit reckless.

But no matter how reckless, this was the only chance.

'If we drag it out, the secret of Sacred Emperor Mountain might leak, and Feng Chuan will also understand us players better...'

'More importantly, Yan Xiao is here now, which is ultimately a variable and a trump card...'

'If we fail this time, next time... there won't be a next time...'

Just thinking about the cost of failure made Li Changfeng tremble all over.

Xiao Buyu looked at his state and comforted him: "True Lord Long Wind, don't think about the worst; you should think about the good, think about what we can harvest after taking down Feng Chuan."

Li Changfeng breathed heavily, and his trembling hands slowly calmed down.

The risk was high, but the expected returns were equally high.

True Lord Feng Chuan was a Nascent Soul who had broken through not long ago, which meant that the Nascent Soul Method he possessed had not been cut off and could still be used in this era.

More importantly, he was not a Loose Cultivator, but a Sect-transmitted Cultivator of the Qingling Sect.

This indicated that his Nascent Soul Method was likely the Legacy of the Qingling Sect.

As long as they trapped Feng Chuan at Sacred Emperor Mountain, it shouldn't be difficult for the players to take down the Qingling Sect and find the Legacy.

By then, the players who had been stuck at the threshold of the Five Divine Abilities would open a new chapter in charging toward the Nascent Soul.

Besides that, as a major Sect with a long history that had produced a True Lord, the spiritual resources accumulated within the Qingling Sect must be extraordinary.

Once taken, it would be an unprecedented feast of spoils.

Li Changfeng even felt that it might be even more impressive than the spoils from the Ancient Battlefield of the East Sea.

Because most of what was found in the Ancient Battlefield was jade bone, Magic Treasure, or some damaged unknown utensils; there wasn't much that could be directly used for cultivation.

But inside the Qingling Sect, there must be a large amount of spiritual resources to supply cultivation.

"Once we win..."

Li Changfeng suddenly felt his whole body heating up; it was the loss of control of spiritual power after extreme excitement.

He forcibly endured it, but the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, then turned downward due to his restraint, ultimately forming a strange arc.

When Xiao Buyu and the others saw this, they couldn't help but step aside, moving a little further away.

The expression was a bit scary.

"He's here!"

Someone suddenly shouted, their tone very serious.

Actually, there was no need for the reminder; Li Changfeng and the others all knew Feng Chuan had arrived.

Because the other party's aura was radiating without reservation.

A gust of wild wind came from the south, forming sharp wind blades that covered the sky and earth, carrying immense pressure.

"Raise the array!"

Li Changfeng hurriedly shouted.

In fact, he didn't need to remind them; Xiao Buyu immediately pinched a spell and cast it, directly activating half of the Grand Array.

Swish, swish, swish!

The long-prepared Formation Flags flew up from all directions, making hunting sounds in the wind, and the flickering spiritual light intertwined into brilliant bright lines.

Then, the formation platforms that had been set up in advance around them hummed as they rose from the ground, roaring with flames. They were not strange fires, but the Beast Fire of a Fifth-Rank Great Demon sponsored by the Demon Race Outside the Wall, and their intensity was quite good.

Each formation platform had a radius of over ten meters; the lower part was a cube, while the upper part was a pit. The burning Beast Fire intertwined with the spiritual light emitted by the Formation Flags, and over a hundred formation platforms outlined a dazzling scene.

In just an instant, Xiao Buyu's Grand Array had risen, and the surging fierce fire turned into a barrier, sheltering Li Changfeng and the others within it.

Then, the strange fire roared and gathered into a large bird with spread wings, its body burning, and its bright fiery red eyes stared toward the south.

I Want to Pilot a Gundam snorted coldly and released a Puppet from his storage ring.

Unlike the Puppet used to hunt the Cloud-Swallowing Whale before, this Puppet was only as tall as a person, clad in sturdy armor, and holding a sharp blade.

In the gaps of the armor, one could faintly see jade light, and there was a surging power that couldn't be suppressed jumping within it.

The material of this Puppet came from the Ancient Battlefield of the East Sea; it was a jade bone left by a Third-Rank Expert.

With I Want to Pilot a Gundam's level, of course, he had no way to completely refine it, let alone fully craft it into a Puppet.

Therefore, he could only put a layer of armor on the outside, using the armor to drive the jade bone, utilizing the power hidden within it as much as possible, and this was enough to give this Puppet the qualification to clash with a Fourth-Rank Expert.

Swish, swish, swish!

The rumbling sound of wind blades from afar had already arrived. The invisible blades of wind were even faster than the sound, hitting the Grand Array barrier in advance, immediately emitting a huge explosive noise, and then the firelight of the Grand Array trembled along with it.
