“I have already set up the formation,” Luo Feng looked at Yuan Xiang Palace Master, “we can act at any time.”
Yuan Xiang Palace Master instructed, “First, you need to participate in defending the city! Like the other Elder avatars, intercept and kill those lurkers. The fewer low-level primordial life lurkers in the city, the longer we can hold out. Second, your identity must remain confidential! When you use the formation, I will say it was me who deployed it!”
“I understand,” Luo Feng nodded.
Once exposed, he would become the target of all.
Under the relentless siege of the super-limit level Enchanting Heart Worm and other leader true bodies, Luo Feng, even with the power of Yulan City, couldn’t be sure of his survival.
“Go. You are now the City Lord of Yulan City. If you have any arrangements, send me a message. I will give orders to all sides,” Yuan Xiang Palace Master said.
Luo Feng nodded and quietly left the common cave mansion in the outer city district.
Yuan Xiang Palace Master remained hidden, silently watching everything.
“I’ve done all I can, from here on, it’s up to fate,” Yuan Xiang Palace Master murmured. Since the new low-level primordial life army joined outside the city, he could calculate that Yulan City wouldn’t hold for more than half a day.
But regardless, he must hold out until the last moment.
…
As Luo Feng hurried to the core area of Yulan City, he used the refined City Building Seal to perfectly understand every corner of the city and know the positions of the low-level primordial life lurkers.
“My formation is much weaker than the Star Array. It will target just one elite lurker team,” Luo Feng managed the formation while on the move.
Rumble~~~~
An elite lurker team inside Yulan City suddenly saw black and cyan clouds swirling above them. Luo Feng drew on the city’s vast energy reserve to amplify the formation’s power!
“Not good, a formation is forming right above us, targeting us.”
“Be careful.”
Despite several attacks, the elite lurker team still had seven leader avatars, five core member true bodies, and 39 core member avatars, working together with layers of illusory waves trying to resist the formation.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Terrifying lights erupted from the clouds, instantly tearing through the sky and enveloping the team, shattering them in moments.
“How is this possible?”
“This formation is stronger than the Star Array?”
“Yulan City, defending against external attacks and still having such a powerful formation against us?” In an instant, only three core member true bodies barely survived.
But under the continuing terrifying lights, even these three were completely annihilated.
In just over ten breaths, an elite lurker team was wiped out.
The Star Array attacked several teams from a distance, but Luo Feng’s Life and Death Array was directly overhead, targeting just this one team, making them feel it was more terrifying.
“Didn’t the Star Array disperse? Elders need to fully resist the external attacks, how come there’s another array?”
“This array has about five or six-tenths the power of the Star Array.”
The Elders were shocked but could precisely evaluate the formation’s power.
The Star Array required Master Gai Tao and 92 Elders. Luo Feng’s accumulation was deeper, but even with the City Lord’s power, his Life and Death Array had five or six-tenths the power of the Star Array.
“It’s me,” Yuan Xiang Palace Master transmitted, “I am suppressing my injuries and can exert some strength! I will try to kill the lurkers.”
“So it’s Yuan Xiang Palace Master.”
“Ignoring his injuries, even a partial exertion surpasses Palace Master Wei Yang.”
“No wonder he masters two and a half primordial-level paths!” The Elders were excited.
Yuan Xiang Palace Master’s strength reassured them! Before his corruption, his power was far above Palace Master Wei Yang.
At his peak, Yuan Xiang Palace Master’s strength was much scarier, enough to rival twenty Palace Master Wei Yangs!
But at his peak, he pursued escaping the braided cage and never thought of wasting battle merit building a city.
“I too wish to suppress my injuries,” Yuan Xiang Palace Master’s felt their excitement, but he was weary and powerless.
He understood his condition.
Maintaining clarity was already a struggle.
…
Yulan City core area.
Luo Feng stood in the sky, looking into the distance.
A lurker team saw Luo Feng, immediately turned and fled, avoiding a confrontation.
“These lurkers, mind-type low-level primordial lives, are too fast,” Luo Feng sighed, “only with the city’s formations can I attack anywhere and effectively hunt them.”
Luo Feng continued controlling the formation, and as City Lord, mobilized vast energy to strengthen the formation and attack another elite lurker team.
Rumble~~~
In the distance, terrifying lights struck.
“Hahaha, another one down.”
“As expected of Yuan Xiang Palace Master.”
The city’s Elders were very excited.
Swoosh——
Luo Feng stood in the sky above Yulan City core area as he saw a team of Elder strongmen flying by.
“Brother Luo Feng.” The Elder-level strongmen greeted, “No wonder Brother Luo Feng dares to hunt lurkers alone.”
Luo Feng looked at the team.
The Elder strongman team had six members, three Elder avatars, and three non-Elders with Elder-level strength, true bodies in the city, actively defending.
Luo Feng’s active hunting made them friendly.
“Too bad these lurkers are too fast,” Luo Feng said.
“With Yuan Xiang Palace Master, even partially exerting his strength, he can see us through this tribulation,” the Elders were excited.
Yuan Xiang Palace Master’s suppression of his injuries and powerful formation gave them hope.
The team spoke a few words with Luo Feng and flew off.
Not as fast as the lurkers, Elder teams patrolled the core area for safety. Many Elders lived there.
“Six Elders with treasures can fight, avoiding the super-limit level Enchanting Heart Worm,” Luo Feng thought.
The Enchanting Heart Worm’s route was monitored, and avoided.
Only when the ‘King’ was too fast was there no escape.
“My formation’s power is insufficient,” Luo Feng frowned. The Star Array was strong enough to destroy leader true bodies.
His formation was half as powerful! Leader true bodies, as Divine Emperor Perfection level mind-type low-level primordial lives, were incredibly resilient, hard to annihilate.
…
“King, our elite squads are suffering too many losses.”
“Of our 39 elite lurker teams, 21 are gone, most members dead, survivors hiding in cave mansions, not daring to emerge.”
“There’s a black and cyan formation, destroying an elite team every dozen breaths, impossible to hide from.”
The leaders transmitted to the King.
First the Star Array, then Luo Feng’s Life and Death Array, targeted elite squads.
“With Yuan Yan’s army outside, Yulan City’s defense should be under greater pressure. How can they have such a powerful formation against us?” The King was puzzled.
“King, the remaining elite squads are panicking!”
“If we don’t find a solution, our elite squads will collapse.”
The leaders sensed their core members’ panic, nearing the breaking point.
The King realized this.
Before, the lurkers were fearless, seeing hope as Elders dwindled, and the Star Array dispersed, boosting their morale.
But now, the new black and cyan formation repeatedly attacking, showing no end. How could they not panic?
“All elite squads, disperse and hide,” the King ordered.
He didn’t care about casualties.
But seeing imminent collapse, there was no need to push.
“Understood.”
“Disperse and hide!”
“Disperse and hide!”
The 18 remaining elite teams sighed and scattered, phasing into cave mansions. Mind bodies easily possessed weaker mansions, controlling cultivators, avatars or true bodies.
Under mansion arrays, the cultivators couldn’t pinpoint the lurkers’ locations.
“Since they’re hiding, ignore them,” Yuan Xiang Palace Master ordered, “we need to delay time, drag long enough, and we win. Elder teams consolidate, each strong to handle the super-limit level Enchanting Heart Worm.”
The city now had the King and five leader teams attacking.
“Hold them off.”
The Elder teams reformed; the smallest had one or two, while Luo Feng, Elder Xingyi, and confident individuals acted alone. The largest had 36 Elder-level strongmen, typically 20.
“Does quantity matter?”
The King, in Wei Yang Palace Master guise, appeared.
Moments before he was afar, now in a 19-Elder team.
Their lack of avatars meant they purchased life-preserving treasures. Elders, having avatars, had few or none.
Whoa!
In an instant, two Elder avatars were dead. The rest resisted with formations.
“Next.”
The King vanished.
Comings and goings at will, that’s a super-limit existence!
The King, seeing Luo Feng and Elder Xingyi, ignored them. Elder Xingyi was still an Elder, the King didn’t want to bother. Luo Feng, not even an Elder, wasn’t worth his time.
Cultivators with strong will secret techniques and soul protection treasures weren’t worth his time.
He’d spend resources on Wei Yang and Gai Tao Palace Masters but attack other Elders quickly, bypassing those with ordinary will techniques and no soul-protecting treasures.
“If their number falls below a certain point, the city will fall,” the King saw victory approaching.
