Chapter 276: Sixth-Order Combined Spiritual Formation, Formation of the Great Sword of a Thousand Worlds
After obtaining the tiger bone, everyone planned to leave the beast valley. Lin Dong and the others took Xiao Yan to practice, while Lin Yan decided not to go. After all, he knew that practicing with demonic beasts was better left to the little marten, who was more experienced in that regard.
The Mighty Earth-Rending Tiger looked nostalgically at the tiger bone taken by Lin Yan and the others, but could do nothing but return impotently to its lair.
Meanwhile, Lin Yan planned to go practice on his own. However, when he reached the entrance of the beast valley, the system's voice suddenly resounded.
Lin Yan heard the news, and his calm expression lit up with joy.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have completed the registration!" "Reward obtained: Sixth-Order Combined Spiritual Formation, Formation of the Great Sword of a Thousand Worlds!" "Reward description: This sword formation consists of thousands of spiritual swords. When activated, thousands of spiritual swords will fall from the sky to attack any living being that enters or approaches this formation. Its power is tremendous!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan thought to himself: "Who would have thought that you could even register here? But according to the system's description, this sword formation must be formidable. Since I was about to practice anyway, I might as well take the opportunity to practice this sword formation too."
After choosing a suitable location, Lin Yan flew there without wasting time. Then, he landed firmly under the giant tree. After landing, Lin Yan activated his mental power to scan the surroundings and found that not far away there was a demonic beast with a Nirvana Mirror. However, the demonic beast was motionless, probably asleep.
Lin Yan decided not to disturb the beast and began to practice on his own.
He sat cross-legged, and his internal energy began to flow frantically. He started to practice the Formation of the Great Sword of a Thousand Worlds.
With his hands forming seals, his body emitted a dazzling golden light. His internal energy moved with this golden light as it flowed into his hands.
At dusk, Lin Yan finally emerged from the practice state. He slowly opened his eyes, revealing a slight smile of satisfaction on his face. He had surely made quite some progress in practicing the sword formation.
As his eyes fully opened, his hands began to change. Then, he formed a seal in the air with his hands.
The seal condensed at a visible speed and finally turned into a formation with the pattern of a great sword.
With the formation completed, thousands of spiritual swords gathered in the formation. They then fell from the sky without any defined pattern, fiercely stabbing the ground around Lin Yan. The once smooth and flat ground was now full of holes caused by these swords. Even some nearby mountains collapsed after being pierced by several swords.
Seeing the impressive power of this sword formation and its wide range, Lin Yan felt renewed excitement. This formation could easily kill Ordinary Nirvana practitioners.
Then, Lin Yan remembered the demonic beast he had detected earlier while practicing. Using his mental power, he located the beast's position on a nearby hill and quickly flew there. In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind the beast, which suddenly felt the danger and roared furiously.
When the demonic beast saw Lin Yan, it immediately tried to claw at him.
However, Lin Yan calmly extended his hands and began to form seals with them. Finally, a mark appeared above his head.
In an instant, thousands of spiritual swords descended from the sky and fiercely stabbed the beast rushing towards Lin Yan.
The beast emitted a cry of pain as the swords struck it, but the sound quickly stopped.
Shortly after being hit by Lin Yan's sword formation, the beast disappeared completely, and not only it, even the mountain below it was leveled by the countless swords.
Lin Yan was quite satisfied with the result.
It seemed that by helping Lin Dong collect the tiger bone, not only had Lin Dong obtained something, he had also obtained a formidable sword formation. This had greatly increased his power.
This fire flower was a combination of three types of spiritual fires, and its combined power could threaten even Four-Element Nirvana practitioners.
Additionally, there was the newly acquired sword formation. The strength of this formation was impressive, as Lin Yan had already experienced. With its wide attack range, it could even disorient those skilled in close combat.
The scene shifted, and on Lin Dong's side, Xiao Yan was in a practicing state.
After a dazzling explosion of white light, Xiao Yan's entire body turned as black as coal. Moreover, in his eyes, one could glimpse an endless aura of ferocity, and his size had increased several times.
"Growl!"
However, Xiao Yan did not stop and, after a roar, entered the practicing state again.
Confused, Lin Dong asked, "Didn't you finish practicing already? Why are you going back into it?"
The marten's voice resonated from Lin Dong's body: "It seems he's going to use the residual Qi from the demonic tiger bone to break through the Nirvana realm."
After a couple of days, Xiao Yan's originally coal-black body began to gleam under the sun, reflecting a metallic shine.
As his body gradually turned red, his scales became even more golden. Lin Dong, seeing this, showed a joyful expression.
While Lin Dong was excited, Xiao Yan roared towards him and then sat in a lotus position, like a human. Lin Dong felt a wave of energy tingling his skin emanating from Xiao Yan's body.
At that moment, strange clouds of white smoke began to emerge from Xiao Yan's body, as if they were coming out of his chest.
Within those clouds of smoke, heavy and clumsy footsteps sounded. Then, a large figure emerged from among the clouds and appeared in front of Lin Dong and the others.
Seeing this scene, Lin Dong was stunned, unable to articulate a word.
Meanwhile, Mo Ling and the others looked at the figure that transformed from the shape of a fierce tiger into that of a human, and exclaimed in amazement: "This... is Xiao Yan after refining the demonic tiger bone! The transformation is so huge! And he has broken through the Nirvana realm!"
When Xiao Yan saw Lin Dong, he stammered, "M-Master..."
Lin Dong was stunned to hear this. He didn't expect that Xiao Yan, who had just transformed into human form, could already speak.
After a brief conversation, Lin Dong took Xiao Yan, now transformed, to find Lin Yan. As soon as they stepped out, they saw a shocking scene on the nearby slope: countless swords were descending from the sky, piercing a mountain and creating countless abysses in the ground.
Lin Dong and the others were dumbfounded: "What kind of formation is this?"
