Chapter 1576: Sky Blotting

But even then, they still wouldn’t have a single shred of certainty to win a fight where they were surrounded by so many supreme Saints at once!

“Since it takes this kind of a siege to kill you, you can die without regrets, Lin Xun,” murmured Shi Pohai.

This was not gloating but a lament that came from the bottom of his heart.

Even if Lin Xun died in this battle, when word of it spread, it would still bring him world-wide attention and reputation!

“It’s truly incredible that such a monster came out of the Ancient Wasteland Domain,” commented Hua Hongxiao.

Lofty as he was, he still had to admit that if there existed an ‘Azure Blue Nine Supremes,’ then Lin Xun would definitely have a place in it, and his ranking certainly wouldn’t be low.

At this moment, the eyes of all and sundry were fixed on Lin Xun.

The tension in the air had climbed to a whole new level with over a hundred supreme Saints moving against a single person. Even when taking into account all the past Conflicts of the Nine Domains, this kind of event could still be said to be unprecedented!

The two parties’ power levels were too disparate, and the gap between them was appalling.

Yet Lin Xun, who was currently bearing its full impact, seemed to have expected it. Not waiting to be surrounded, he stomped in the air and shot up until he stood high in the sky.

His figure was tall and elegant like an immortal, but his might was all-piercing like that of a demon god. The two different temperaments were fused together and outlined a uniquely domineering demeanor.

“Think you can do whatever you want just because you have more people? It’s futile!” he said coldly and waved his sleeve. With a clatter, a slew of Saint Treasures whistled out.

These 108 treasures of all kinds diffused their sacred auras in the air: axes and hook blades, swords and spears, bells and cauldrons, great seals and pagodas… Every piece was a battle trophy.

However, Lin Xun had re-refined and engraved runes on them.

All the one hundred and eight Saints Treasures bolted out together. In just an instant, they were distributed in all directions, emitting dense, magnificent runes as they constructed a large formation in the void!

Rumble~

In the blink of an eye, the region was shrouded in fog, which was a powerful restrictive formation that isolated it from the outside world.

This formation was called Sky Blotting!

“He finally used it…” sighed Zhao Jingxuan with relief.

A while ago, after Lin Xun had returned to the City of Protection, he had stayed inside without going out even once. Because of this, the enemies of the eight domains had regarded him as a turtle cowering in its shell.

Zhao Jingxuan was the only one who knew how crazy Lin Xun had been during that period of time. He had been up almost all night and day refining Saint Treasures and inscribing them with formation diagrams.

Almost all of the trophies that Lin Xun had collected over the past year had been repurposed as the base for constructing a great formation!

Each had been a priceless Saint Treasure. Who could be as crazy as Lin Xun and bring themselves to sacrifice them all?

No one!

And he had done it in preparation for this battle!

“Nooo!”

“Damn it, what kind of formation is this?!”

“Why can’t I break free from it?!”

Shocked shouts echoed in the battlefield as the imposing group of supreme Saints were all caught off guard and flooded by the churning fog.

On instinct, they immediately struggled. But it felt as though they were stuck in a quagmire, and any kind of resistance was futile.

In just a few breaths, this side of heaven and earth was completely drowned by a boundless fog. Not to mention those supreme Saints, even their voices and auras were cut off and suddenly vanished from the outside world’s perception.

The vast world seemed to have been blocked off. In stark contrast to the previous tumult of battle was the eerie silence of this moment, where there wasn’t a trace of fluctuation of any kind.

The most frightening thing was that even the True Saints watching from afar hadn’t been able to escape. They had all ended up being caught up in the foggy formation.

Seeing this, Zhao Jingxuan smiled faintly and walked into it herself. Her slender silhouette quickly vanished into the fog.

“He’s using the power of formations again!”

Xue Qingyi’s expression dropped. He had expected this possibility, but it just had never come to his mind at all what kind of array in existence would be able to trap over a hundred of supreme Saints in an instant.

Moreover, how could such a large-scale restrictive formation be set up immediately?

He simply couldn’t comprehend it.

“What now?” Shi Pohai frowned.

“This is a trapping formation that remodels an area into a small world. Brute force is useless as it will drag you in upon the slightest contact,” the reticent Hua Hongxiao suddenly spoke. “To break it, we need a dao rune founder to figure out its mysteries and dismantle them.”

“Then, do you have a way to do this, Brother Hua?” asked Xue Qingyi.

“I’m no dao rune master, let alone founder.” Hua Hongxiao shook his head.

“If Zhu Yingkong was around, he definitely could. His Torch Dragon Lineage is specialized in dao runes, and among his ancestors, there was once an expert who realized their Emperor dao with the art of runes.” Shi Pohai furrowed his brow. “Brother Xue, you didn’t invite Zhu Yingkong to join us in this operation?”

Xue Qingyi’s face darkened in frustration as he replied, “That guy is in seclusion and has no time.”

How powerful was the lineup of nearly a hundred supreme Saints?

And yet, before they could have engaged in battle, they were directly trapped in a large formation. This was like a blunt knock on the head, making Xue Qingyi so angry that he nearly coughed up blood.

“Tell me that this time won’t be a repeat of the last seven-domain army’s failure…” said Shi Pohai.

Xue Qingyi’s heart lurched. Last time, the seven domains’ alliance of around 70 supreme Saints and 210,000 troops had been wiped out. This was a tragic lesson paid for with blood.

If it happened again today, then it would simply be a destructive blow!

“It will not!” said Hua Hongxiao categorically. “This time, his formation is not supported by any energy sources other than its base, so it cannot last long. As long as the trapped supreme Saints fight back together, the formation will break in less than fifteen minutes.”

Hearing this, Xue Qingyi’s and Shi Pohai’s expressions relaxed.

But the thought of having to wait fifteen minutes made them feel a pang of annoyance. Fifteen minutes was enough for too many unexpected things to happen!

“Despite all odds, he could still come up with this kind of tactic. Had I known beforehand, I would have gathered some rune experts this time.” Xue Qingyi inwardly gnashed his teeth.

……

It was an entirely different sight in the grand formation.

This place was like a world of mist. The hundreds of supreme Saints and True Saints were trapped in different areas, unable to see each other in any way as their six senses and spirit senses were all obstructed.

Being in the middle of it was akin to being a leaf of straw drifting in a vast ocean.

This frightened them. They were all tense and alert to the extreme.

They tried attacking to create an opening in the fog world but to no avail.

Meanwhile, as Lin Xun walked among the fog, everything happening in the formation was reflected in his mind in minute detail.

Completely different from the Total Annihilation Perfect Protection Array set up around the City of Protection, this formation was constructed from 108 Saint Treasures.

It also sourced its power from these treasures, so when they were depleted, the formation would collapse and dissolve on its own.

In short, this formation could be used only once at the cost of over one hundred Saint Treasures!

Even Lin Xun had had to accumulate more than a year’s worth of loot before he was able to set it up.

The price could be said to be daylight robbery!

However, the end product was equally amazing. In this large formation world, the enemies were all reduced to trapped prey waiting to be slaughtered!

Swish!

Without any hesitation, Lin Xun started teleporting around and launching attacks.

In one area where three supreme Saints were trapped together, a sharp light suddenly swept out from the mist like a gust of wind.

“Dodge!”

The hypervigilant supreme Saints reacted right away.

However, the speed of the light streak exceeded their imagination. With a flash, it broke through the defense of one of them and proceeded to cut open the target’s chest.

Blood spurted out, and the supreme Saint died under the strike.

Only then did the remaining two clearly see the true form of the flash of sharpness – a crystalline, illusory broken blade with a glint that sent chills down their spines.

“Go!” The expressions of the two supreme Saints changed drastically, and they ran toward the fog.

However, Lin Xun suddenly appeared like a ghost on their path. Moving even faster than him was the blood-red Yuantu Sword.

Swish!

The sword slashed horizontally, drawing a savage, scarlet sword qi that sailed at the two supreme Saints and drowned them.

In the blink of an eye, there was nothing left of them as both their bodies and spirits had fallen into oblivion!

“That’s three.”

Not sparing them a glance, Lin Xun turned around.

This formation could not be sustained for too long, so he had to move quickly!

Boom!

Soon, five supreme Saints in another area were met with Lin Xun’s onslaught. After ten breaths, the outcome was decided.

Two died under the Broken Blade, two died under the Yuantu Sword, and one was blasted to death while fleeing by an arrow fired from the No-Nonsense Bow.

Compared to the initial battle when he had been surrounded by thirty supreme Saints, the current Lin Xun was unstoppable as he destroyed his opponents.

The reason was simple. Nothing escaped his eyes in this huge formation, which allowed him to take the initiative to attack.

Not to mention one-on-one, even one-on-five or one-on-ten posed no threat to Lin Xun at all!

In just a few moments, he eliminated over twenty supreme Saints in a chicken-slaughtering manner.

On the occasion that he came across True Saints, it was even more tragic as it was no different from chopping vegetables.

During all this slaughtering, he even had the time to swallow pills and herbs to replenish his energy. This kind of fight just couldn’t get easier.

In this formation, Lin Xun was the only lord that decided everyone’s fate!

The only drawback was that the formation couldn’t last long, otherwise, he was confident that he could slaughter every single supreme Saint no matter how many entered.

Meanwhile, on Black Cliff Sea, the expressions of Xue Qingyi’s group were growing increasingly grim.

This was because, every now and then, the sound of a Saint’s death would resound in the sky, letting them know how tragic and abhorrent their casualties in that huge formation were!
