Chapter 357 - The Dark Array Formation
“We’ll do our best to protect you as well. We’ll definitely not let you suffer the slightest bit of harm.”
The soldiers at the side immediately spoke up. They had been fighting on the frontlines all year round, so they clearly understood the importance of array formations.
If the array formations could be maintained, then they could rely on the formations to kill the Pollution Creatures on a large scale. This would be a huge help to humanity.
Hence, these soldiers expressed their full support and immediately protected Li Xuan in the middle.
“Junior brother, you can’t joke about such things. Have you really developed the Dark Array Formation?”
“My master once said that they had also studied this aspect before. However, to study this kind of array formation, not only does it require a huge amount of knowledge, but it also requires Darkness Innate Talent…”
“Only those with Darkness-Type Skills can set up this kind of array formation. That’s why the few Gold Rank supreme elders all failed because they did not have Darkness-Type Skills.”
Peony said seriously, her little face tensed up as she looked at Li Xuan.
“It’s just Darkness-Type Skills. look.”
Li Xuan snapped his fingers, and in an instant, a black vortex appeared on his right hand. Dozens of skeleton warriors staggered out of the black vortex.
The aura they emitted was not strong. In fact, it could even be said to be pitifully weak. However, they did indeed belong to the Darkness-Type.
“It… It really is a Darkness-Type Skill. Little junior brother, you actually have such a skill? How is this possible?!”
Peony was shocked and looked at Li Xuan in disbelief. Her eyes were wide open.
One had to know that special skills themselves were very rare. There were very few people in this world who had special skills. Everyone who had special skills was the target of training.
At the moment, not only did her little junior brother has special skills, but he also had a Darkness-Type Skill. Most importantly, his little junior brother also had a huge amount of knowledge about array formation.
With these two points, her little junior brother would definitely be able to set up a powerful Dark Array Formation in the future.
Therefore, at this moment…
The expressions of everyone present completely changed. They looked at Li Xuan with shock and ecstasy.
Li Xuan saw everyone’s condition and lightly shook his head.
“It’s just a skill. This black gas doesn’t completely belong to Darkness Energy. It also contains Evil Energy, Chaotic Energy, and all sorts of negative emotions…”
“I can only use a portion of the black gas with my Darkness-Type Skill, so my array formation can only kill low-level enemies. There’s still a lot of room for improvement.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. This is already very powerful. As long as you can create a Dark Array Formation, it’s very powerful,” Peony hurriedly said.
“Yes, the Dark Array Formation is simple. Let’s go to the front of the array formation and start setting up the Dark Array Formation,” Li Xuan said directly.
Although the Dark Array Formation had only been developed not long ago, setting it up was not difficult.
Back when he was in the Seven Stars Sect, it was because he saw the Dark Array Formation in the library that he was halfway through studying that he had a flash of inspiration and wanted to study this direction. Later, Li Xuan returned to the Qin Yue world and studied it together with Qin Yue. Only then did he finally complete the Dark Array Formation.
Although its power was weak, it was very easy for Li Xuan to set it up.
Hence, everyone set off immediately. Along the way, they continued to kill the Dark Creatures and pick up the Beast Cores that occasionally dropped from their corpses.
These Beast Cores were very effective for setting up the array formation. They could increase the power of the array formation. Naturally, Li Xuan ordered the Skeleton Warriors to do their best to pick them up.
However, along the way, the people protecting Li Xuan were a little depressed. It was because they did not have the chance to attack, all the monsters were killed by the Skeleton Warriors.
One had to know that these Skeleton Warriors looked very weak. They even swayed when they walked.
However, they did not expect that…
When they met the enemy, these Skeleton Warriors seemed to have gone crazy. One by one, they rushed to kill the monsters. In a short while, they killed a large number of monsters.
This scene surprised everyone, but at the same time, it also made them feel depressed. One had to know that they were at the Bronze Rank Peak, but in the end, they were actually slower than the Skeleton Warriors in killing monsters.
This made them wonder if they were at the Bronze Rank Peak. They could not understand how the seemingly weak Skeleton Warriors could actually display such strong combat power.
“Junior Brother Li Xuan, these skeleton warriors of yours are not simple. If they attack at the same time, even I have to be careful…”
“Strange. They are clearly very weak, but why are their combat strength so strong? It’s as if something increased their strength.”
Xiao He of the Heavenly Sword Sect could see the difference, but he did not know the reason.
“It’s because of the environment.” Li Xuan randomly found a reason.
“Is that so?”
Xiao He of the Heavenly Sword Sect was a little puzzled, but he felt that other than this, he could not think of anything else. He could only think of it as an environmental reason.
In fact, the real reason was that Li Xuan had too many skills. A large number of enhancement skills were like halos, causing these weak skeletons to become stronger.
The power of normal Dark Summoning was not particularly strong. Even if it was raised to the Transcendent Level, it would only increase the type of summoned creatures available.
However, under the enhancement of Li Xuan’s talent, these summoned creatures became extremely powerful. Even if Li Xuan deliberately suppressed his strength, he still displayed extraordinary combat strength.
“We’re here. I’ll start setting up now.”
Everyone came to the front of the array formation and immediately killed the Dark Creatures around the array. Then, according to the knowledge in Li Xuan’s mind, he began to set up the Dark Array Formation.
Since it was the first time he set up the array formation, Li Xuan took a little longer. Fortunately, the array formation was successfully completed in the end.
The Darkness-Type tended to be lonely, obscure, and mysterious. Therefore, when the Dark Array Formation was formed, the fluctuations were not as strong as those of the Spiritual Power array formations.
The fluctuations of the Dark Array Formation were very small, almost negligible.
“It’s done.”
Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction, ready to test the power of the Dark Array Formation. “It’s done? The fluctuations are so low. It seems that the level of the array formation is indeed not high. It should be able to kill normal-grade Pollution Creatures, right?”
Peony asked in puzzlement. It felt that the level of the darkness formation was not high.
“Normal-level? You will know when you see
it.”
Li Xuan shook his head. He shifted his mind back to the Skeleton Warriors who were fighting in front of him and quietly waited for the appearance of the Pollution Creatures.
Without the Skeleton Warriors blocking them, dozens of Demonized Rts quickly rushed over. The one leading them was surprisingly a Demonized Rat at the Black Iron Rank Peak.
“Little junior brother, be careful to control the array formation. There is a Demonized Rat at the Black Iron Rank Peak,” Peony immediately reminded him when he saw it.
“There’s no need to control it. It’s just a small Demonized Rat. The Dark Array Formation
Li Xuan smiled carelessly and waited for the demonized rat to appear.
Soon, the Demonized Rat squeaked as it charged toward the array formation and started to gnaw at it crazily.
However, the moment they got close, the dense black mist enveloped them and the sizzling sound of corrosion could be heard.
Very soon, as the black mist dispersed, all the Demonized Rats on the scene were corroded until only their bones were left. They died just like that. Even the Black Iron Rank Demonized Rats did not survive.
“So fast. You don’t even need to control the array formation to kill the Demonized Rats. If someone controls the array formation, wouldn’t it be able to kill Bronze Rank Demonized Rats? This array formation looks very powerful.”
Peony looked at Li Xuan in surprise.
Not long ago, Li Xuan said that the level of the Dark Array Formation was still relatively low and its power was not enough. Peony thought that it could not even kill an Ordinary Rank Demonized Rat.
However, in the blink of an eye, it had killed a Demonized Rat at the Black Iron Rank Peak. This was because no one was controlling the array formation. If someone was controlling the array formation, its power would be greatly increased.
This result made Peony look at Li Xuan in disbelief. She did not understand why Li Xuan thought that the power of the Dark Array Formation was weak.
“It can only kill a Bronze Rank. Isn’t it very weak?” Li Xuan said matter-of-factly.
“Only?”
Peony was completely speechless.
Well, it turned out that what Li Xuan thought was weak was actually Bronze Rank. It was completely different from what she had imagined
She thought that if the power of the array was weak. It could not even kill an Ordinary Rank.
However, what Li Xuan thought was weak was that it could even kill a Bronze Rank. Such a gap made Peony doubt her life.
“Junior brother, this is already very strong. The strongest array formation I set up is only at this level, okay?” Peony said helplessly.
“Is that so? Then you should really work hard. Killing a Bronze Rank is indeed a little weak.” Li Xuan shook his head.
