Chapter Two Hundred and Six: Array Breaks and Escapes(1/2)
Outside Bear Mountain.
The roar of beasts, explosions, barbarians, and all kinds of sounds were heard.
Wang Cheng has already cast the [Eight-sided Blue Sky Slash] spell for the 17th time. Every time his spell is thrown out of the array, he can create a bloody storm among the group of monsters and barbarians, taking away the lives of more than a dozen monsters or dozens of barbarians.
But there are too many monsters and barbarians. Compared with the huge number of enemies, his attack is just a drop in the ocean and has no impact on the entire battle situation at all.
But he had to control his spell casting frequency to prevent himself from killing in a moment and spending too much mana.
In such a war, it is difficult for him to have enough time to meditate quietly to restore his magic power.
Therefore, he must keep his mana at least 70% at all times so that he can retain enough mana to deal with it when encountering emergencies.
At this time, the "never-lasting" characteristic attached to the advanced exercises of "Qingyun Sword Sutra" played a big role.
With this characteristic, Wang Cheng recovers his mana by 30% or 40% faster than others. He can use more magic to kill enemies while retaining enough mana while casting more magic than others.
This is combined with the powerful killing effect of the [Eight-sided Blue Sky Slash] spell, Wang Cheng's current record is even stronger than some late-stage cultivators in the foundation building stage.
Time passes slowly.
After the cannon fodders continued to attack for almost two hours, the main forces of the Demon Barbarian Alliance finally came on the field.
More than a dozen second-level monsters surrounding Xiaoxiong Mountain took action in a tacit understanding and used their most powerful attack spell to attack the mountain protection formation.
The six second-level barbarian warlocks also chanted spells and casted second-level magic to attack the Xiaoxiongshan formation.
The only thing that everyone on Xiaoxiong Mountain is fortunate that the main force of the Demon Barbarian Alliance was placed in the Iron Bear Mountain position, and more than ten second-level barbarian warlocks who knew how to jointly cast spells were also there.
Otherwise, the seven or eight foundation-building monks on Xiaoxiong Mountain would not be able to resist several times the siege of the enemy.
But even so, facing the attack of nearly twenty second-level monsters, Xiaoxiong Mountain's mountain protection formation was still under great pressure.
Even if Wang Cheng and other foundation-building cultivators tried their best to intercept, they could only intercept almost half of the attacks. The remaining attacks fell on the mountain protection formation, which directly caused the mountain protection formation to shake the distance, and even the entire Little Bear Mountain to shake.
Wang Cheng is no longer Xiaobai, who knows nothing about formations. Although he has not yet become a formal formation master, he has made great progress in understanding formation theory knowledge.
After discovering that Xiaoxiong Mountain was shaking with the mountain protection formation, he suddenly realized that the mountain protection formation of Xiaoxiong Mountain was completely connected with the spiritual veins and the earth veins on the mountain.
Generally speaking, when cultivators set up formations, they only use the power of spiritual veins and earth veins to provide energy supply to the formations.
But there are also some formations that connect the spiritual veins, the earth veins and the formations together.
The benefits and disadvantages of doing this are obvious.
The advantage is that the formation can use the power of spiritual veins and earth veins to exert power beyond its own level.
The disadvantage is that once the formation is broken, the spiritual veins will collapse and the earth veins will also collapse.
For example, now, once the mountain protection formation of Xiaoxiong Mountain is broken, the entire mountain will collapse and crack and become a ruin.
After discovering this situation, Wang Cheng suddenly felt cold and heartbroken.
"Longshan Academy is so cruel. He doesn't care about the life and death of the Qi Refining Cultivator on the mountain at all!"
Originally, the formation was broken, and it was difficult for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage to retreat to the two Lingshan strongholds, Tiexin Mountain and Black Bear Mountain.
If Xiaoxiong Mountain collapsed and collapsed after the formation was broken, it would be even more difficult for those cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage who were caught off guard to escape from the mountain in time.
Moreover, Wang Cheng could almost expect that there would definitely be more than one case of situations like the Xiaoxiong Mountain position.
If you have a bolder guess, it is likely that this is the case for all Lingshan strongholds on the front line.
At this moment, Wang Cheng's previous favorable impression of Longshan Academy instantly dropped to a freezing point.
He immediately moved his lips slightly, told his senior brother Lin Yuanshan about his discovery, and sent a message to his third senior brother Li Zitao, Yang Jing and others to give hints and tips, asking them to prepare the flying magic weapon at any time.
Time passed little by little, and with the struggle of seventy or eighty monks on Xiaoxiong Mountain, the long night finally passed.
When the morning sunlight fell on the ground, there were already corpses everywhere outside the Little Bear Mountain and blood was covered with wreckage.
The corpses of monsters and barbarians have been laid all over the floor, many of which are burned by fire, dismembered by sharp blades, frozen by frost, and death is more miserable than the other.
Wang Cheng glanced at it with a rough look. The number of monsters who died outside the mountain last night was probably not less than three thousand!
You should know that the total number of demon barbarian coalition forces who came to attack the Tiexiong Mountain position this time was only more than 30,000, and only about 7,000 were assigned to the Xiaoxiong Mountain position.
By counting this way, you can tell how much the losses the demon barbarian coalition army suffered last night!
But Wang Cheng was not happy at all when he saw this scene.
Because after a night of hard work, not to mention the mountain protection formation was already shaking, these cultivators were all greatly damaged in their magic power and were exhausted.
Taking Wang Cheng himself as an example, after a fierce battle that lasted for a night, he could no longer hold the bottom line of 70% of his mana as he did at the beginning.
Now his mana is only a little over 40% of his power.
Even he has the "never end" characteristic, which shows that others will only be worse.
And even these are the foundation-building cultivators, let alone those Qi Refining cultivators.
After a fierce battle overnight, most of the Qi Refining Cultivators collapsed to the ground because of their exhaustion of magic power and had to recover their magic power by sitting meditation and regulating breathing.
However, because of the continuous operation of mana battle, their meridians have already suffered certain damage under this high-intensity load, and the speed of mana recovery at this time has also been affected.
Of course, this does not include the five Qi-refining cultivators in the Qingyun Sect.
Li Zitao and others kept Wang Cheng's advice in mind, and no matter how urgent the situation was, they would retain 20% of their magic power for themselves.
So at this moment they are one of the few Qi Refining Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation Cultivation C
The situation of the cultivators on Xiaoxiong Mountain cannot be hidden from the demon barbarian coalition outside.
After dawn that day, the demon barbarian coalition not only did not stop the attack, but instead launched a fierce attack again.
This time, the second-level monsters who had previously hid behind and cast spells for long-range attacks all roared and went out to charge towards the mountain protection formation.
As we all know, for many monsters, the attack power that the physical body can exert is no worse than that of spells. Even some monsters’ talented spells are specially designed to assist physical body combat.
For example, a second-level mid-grade monster [Great Power Golden Ape] that appeared outside Xiaoxiong Mountain at this time, its talented spells "Divine Power Technique" and "Golden Light Body Protection Technique" were all specially designed for close combat.
This time, many second-level monsters came on the field and attacked with magic. The mountain protection formation of Xiaoxiong Mountain suddenly shook violently, and even a trace of cracks visible to the naked eye appeared.
The emergence of these cracks gave the powerful encouragement of the monsters outside the formation, and they became even more crazy when they attacked.
At this moment, most Foundation Establishment Cultivators, including Wang Cheng, knew that Xiaoxiong Mountain's mountain protection formation would definitely not be able to defend it.
With this understanding, they no longer attacked the monsters with all their strength, but began to gather up the disciples of their own sects and prepare to break through after the formation breaks.
Wang Xiu, the commander-in-chief of the Xiaoxiong Mountain position, saw this scene and frowned slightly, then he didn't know what he thought of, and his frown eyebrows slightly loosened again.
He suddenly shouted loudly: "Fellow Taoists, it seems that the Xiaoxiong Mountain Mountain Protection Formation cannot be defended anymore. Next, Wang will mobilize all the power of the formation to open a passage for all Taoists to break out. Fellow Taoists see the opportunity and break out towards Tiexong Mountain!"
Something is a trick!
This is the first thought in Wang Cheng’s mind after hearing what Wang Xiu said.
From the fact that Wang Xiu did not inform everyone on the mountain that the Xiaoxiong Mountain Protection Array had been connected with the earth veins and spiritual veins in advance, he could know that he did not care about the life and death of the monks on the mountain.
In this case, how could the other party suddenly be so kind and devote himself to helping everyone break through?
When Wang Cheng thought of this, he immediately communicated with his senior brother Lin Yuanshan.
The two of them immediately coincided with each other, and they both decided to do the opposite. When they broke through later, they would never follow the path pointed by Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu acted very quickly. After he finished speaking, he reached out to take the formation center control array flag, and started to cast spells at the formation flag.
After a while of this, he suddenly inserted the central control array flag into a place on Xiaoxiong Mountain.
Suddenly, the formation shield that protected Xiaoxiong Mountain directly exploded and dissipated, turning into a powerful shock wave and swept towards the surroundings.
This move was obviously beyond the expectations of the demon and barbarian coalition. Many first-level monsters and barbarian warlocks who were close to each other were even directly shattered by the shock wave and died on the spot.
Even the second-level monsters and second-level barbarian warlocks were also ruined by this and suffered heavy shock and internal injuries.
However, Wang Cheng and others on the mountain noticed that the shock wave leading to the Iron Bear Mountain position was particularly powerful, and its power was more than half stronger than the other three sides.
Seeing this scene, the monks on the mountain were overjoyed and hurriedly broke through the side.
But at this moment, Xiaoxiong Mountain suddenly shook violently like an earthquake, and the ridge suddenly cracked several meters wide and appeared.
"No, the mountain is about to collapse, everyone should take off!"
A foundation-building monk shouted and issued a reminder, and took action to save the Qi Refining disciples around him.
But in a hurry, how many people can they save?
In just a moment, more than a dozen Qi Refining Cultivator who had no reaction or were in luck died directly in such a landslide and crack.
At this time, the monsters saw this situation and were already overjoyed.
Seeing this situation, the group of foundation-building monks had no time to blame Wang Xiu for not informing the situation in advance. They could only lead the monks rescued in a hurry to break into Tiexin Mountain.
A large number of demon-barbarian coalition forces of the same clan were sacrificed to attack Xiaoxiong Mountain. Of course, they would not watch these human monks who killed their own tribe leave like this.
Suddenly, the monsters on all sides of Xiaoxiong Mountain rushed towards the direction leading to Tiexiong Mountain, and they would never let a cultivator go.
Wang Cheng and Lin Yuanshan, who did not follow the crowd, were secretly grateful when they saw this situation.
Fortunately, they were more scrupulous, otherwise they would be surrounded by a large number of monsters. Even if they could break through, Li Zitao and others would probably be unable to escape.
"Let's go, let's fight a way out and retreat to the strongholds behind us. Even if someone asks us, we can say that we are separated from the main force and cannot enter the Tiexiong Mountain surrounded by many encirclements!"
Wang Cheng greeted Lin Yuanshan, who was envoying the second-level low-level flying spiritual weapon [Qingyun Boat], and the two immediately broke through to the back with five Qingyun Sect Qi Refining disciples.
