From an ordinary boy to a legendary god

Chapter 839: Changes in the Formation in Practice

After defeating the Dark Demon Sect, the Immortal Sect members didn't rest on their laurels. Instead, they realized that while the improved "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" had worked in actual combat, it still had much room for improvement. Lin Feng immediately decided to organize all personnel involved in the formation's improvement to conduct a comprehensive review of its performance in battle.

The atmosphere in the Immortal Sect's meeting hall was heated yet solemn. Lin Feng stood in the room, looking at everyone with a serious expression. He said, "Everyone, our last battle with the Dark Demon Sect has shown us the potential of the improved 'Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation,' but it has also exposed a number of problems. Please share your observations and thoughts from the battle."

Xingyu stood up first, his young face full of seriousness, and said, "Senior Brother, I found that when the attack runes are launched, the spiritual power sometimes cannot be connected smoothly, resulting in unstable attack power. I think it may be that the runes and the original spiritual power circulation system of the formation are not perfectly integrated, and the position of the runes and the spiritual power transmission lines need to be further adjusted." As he spoke, he walked to the formation model on the side, pointed to the position of the runes and gestured.

Lin Feng nodded slightly, his eyes following Xingyu's gestures as he spoke, "Xingyu, you've observed very carefully. The integration of runes and the spiritual energy circulation system is crucial, as it affects the continuity and power of the attack. You and the team responsible for rune embedding must find a solution as soon as possible."

Su Yao continued, "Brother, the light ice spiritual power is very effective in dispelling dark forces, but when it works in conjunction with other defensive functions, conflicts sometimes arise. For example, when the light ice spiritual power is fully utilized to resist dark spells, the physical defense capabilities of the formation will temporarily decrease. I think we need to readjust the operating mechanism of the light ice spiritual power in the formation so that it can better cooperate with other defensive functions." Su Yao frowned slightly, with a thoughtful glint in her eyes. It was obvious that she had been thinking about this problem since the battle.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng said, "Su Yao, the question you raise is crucial. We must ensure that the various functions of the formation are coordinated with each other to form an organic whole. You lead the relevant disciples to conduct in-depth research on the operating mechanism of the light ice spiritual power and make sure to solve this problem."

The formation elder in charge of optimizing the rune structure also spoke. He stroked his graying beard and said slowly, "Lin Feng, I discovered during the battle that while simplifying and strengthening the rune structure makes the formation run more smoothly, the durability of some key runes is slightly insufficient when facing the powerful and strange spells of the Dark Demon Sect. We may need to find more advanced materials to carve the runes to enhance their endurance."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng said, "Elder, you are absolutely right. Improving the rune materials can fundamentally enhance the stability and defense of the formation. However, finding higher-grade materials is not easy and will require us to spend some effort."

After some discussion, everyone clarified their respective improvement directions and once again devoted themselves to the intense work of refining the formation. Xingyu and his team worked day and night, constantly adjusting the positioning of the attack runes and the spiritual power transmission lines. Xingyu frowned, staring at the intricate rune circuits on the formation model, secretly thinking, "I must find the perfect integration." He tried one solution after another, the spiritual power crystal flickering in his hand, and the rune lines constantly shifted across the formation model. After countless attempts, he finally found a new rune arrangement that perfectly integrated the attack runes with the spiritual power circulation system. The spiritual power flowed as smoothly as silk, and the power became stable and powerful.

Su Yao led her disciples in a thorough study of the operating mechanisms of Light Ice Spiritual Power. Within a closed spiritual energy space, they repeatedly simulated various combat scenarios, observing how Light Ice Spiritual Power synergized with other defensive functions. Su Yao, intensely focused on the fluctuations in spiritual power, beads of sweat beaded her forehead. "We've got it!" she exclaimed excitedly. "We can create a buffer zone between Light Ice Spiritual Power and other defensive spiritual powers. This will prevent direct conflict and ensure a smooth transition." The disciples adapted their methods, and after repeated trials, the Light Ice Spiritual Power and other defensive functions began to work more seamlessly together.

Meanwhile, the disciples tasked with searching for rune materials also embarked on a arduous journey. Drawing on records from ancient texts, they searched for mysterious locations where high-level rune materials might be found. Within a mysterious ruin, the disciples cautiously advanced, their surroundings permeated by an ancient and menacing aura. "Everyone, be careful! This place is full of strange things," a disciple whispered. Suddenly, a swarm of massive puppets guarding the ruins emerged from all directions, emitting powerful spiritual energy. The disciples quickly formed battle formations, unleashing their respective spells and swordsmanship to engage the puppets in a fierce battle. After a bitter battle, they finally defeated the puppets and discovered, deep within the ruins, a mineral emitting a strange glow—Spirit Crystal Black Iron—the very high-level rune material they had longed for.

However, just as the Xianmen were working hard to improve the formation, a greater crisis quietly loomed. A mysterious and powerful force, having learned of the Xianmen's progress, decided to launch a surprise attack while the formation was still under development.

One morning, the Immortal Gate was suddenly enveloped by a thick, dark fog. From within the mist emanated the eerie howling of ghosts, a terrifying sound. Lin Feng, sensing something unusual around the Immortal Gate, was alarmed and immediately summoned his disciples. "Oh no! A powerful enemy is approaching! Everyone, gather in the square and prepare for battle!" Lin Feng shouted as he ran.

The disciples of the Immortal Sect quickly gathered in the square. Lin Feng looked at the disciples who were ready for battle and said loudly, "My fellow disciples, we are here with ill intentions, but after our efforts over this period of time, the strength of the Immortal Sect has increased. Activate the improved 'Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation' and we will definitely be able to repel the enemy!"

As the disciples operated, the "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" activated once more. Its light flickered slightly under the encroaching dark mist, but it remained stable. From the mist emerged a group of monks in eerie black robes. Their faces were shrouded in shadow, their expressions unclear, but the malevolent aura they emanated was chilling.

The leading black-robed monk let out a sinister laugh and said, "Everyone of the Immortal Sect, today is the day of your destruction! Do you think you can rest easy just by improving the formation? In the face of my 'Netherworld Ghost Mist Formation,' everything is in vain!"

Lin Feng glared at them and shouted, "You bunch of villains, stop being so arrogant! How could the Immortal Sect be afraid of you!"

The black-robed monk waved his hand, and the surrounding dark mist instantly surged, transforming into countless black tentacles that lunged towards the Immortal Gate. The "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" shone brightly, resisting the attack of the black tentacles. Xingyu nervously stared at the attack runes within the formation, silently praying, "This must succeed." As the black tentacles approached, the attack runes activated, sending powerful spiritual attacks blasting towards them, shattering them one after another.

Su Yao closely monitored the operation of the Light Ice Spiritual Power. Under the oppression of the dark mist, the Light Ice Spiritual Power automatically activated, radiating a golden light that partially dispelled the dark mist. "Very good! This time, the Light Ice Spiritual Power and the defensive function worked well together," Su Yao felt relieved.

However, seeing his attack thwarted, the black-robed monk muttered something, and the power of the "Netherworld Ghost Mist Formation" instantly increased. The dark mist condensed into gigantic ghostly monsters, roaring and charging at the "Qiankun Sect Protection Formation." The formation was subjected to a powerful impact, and its light began to flicker.

"Everyone, hold the formation steady! Don't panic!" Lin Feng shouted. He quickly observed the battlefield and discovered that while the ghost monsters were powerful, they were a bit slow. "Lingyu, lead the fusion spell disciples to attack the ghost monsters' legs to slow their impact!"

Ling Yu followed the order and led his disciples in unleashing the fusion spell "Water and Earth Explosion." The powerful spell struck the ghost monster's legs, triggering a series of explosions. As expected, the ghost monster's movements were affected, slowing down.

At this time, the disciples in charge of rune materials also delivered the newly acquired spirit crystal black iron to the formation. The formation elder quickly replaced some key runes with spirit crystal black iron. Instantly, the formation's light shone brightly, and its stability increased significantly.

The black-robed monk's expression changed upon seeing this. He knew that if he didn't break through the formation quickly, this assault would be a failure. Desperately, he unleashed a forbidden spell, instantly increasing his power several times over as he attacked the "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" with all his might.

Lin Feng felt the powerful attack from the black-robed monk and thought to himself, "This attack is so powerful that the formation alone may not be able to withstand it." He quickly made a decision, "Disciples of the Immortal Sect, listen up! All of you cast your spells to resist this attack together with the formation!"

The disciples of the Immortal Sect unleashed their most powerful spells. Ice spells transformed into massive ice walls, lightning spells triggered thunderous roars, and the sword cultivators unleashed piercing sword energy. These various spells combined with the power of the "Qian Kun Sect Protection Formation" to resist the attacks of the black-robed monk.

With a resounding "boom!", a powerful spiritual energy surge erupted around the Immortal Gate, radiating light and sending clouds of dust flying. When the light dissipated, the black-robed monk was seen being thrown back several feet, spitting blood. Knowing the attack had failed, he waved his hand and quickly disappeared into the dark mist with his men.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the enemy retreat. He turned to look at the disciples around him and said, "Is everyone alright? This battle has shown us how the improved formation can change and grow when facing powerful enemies. But we can't be satisfied with this. We must continue to improve the formation to ensure the absolute safety of the Immortal Sect."

The disciples nodded, their eyes filled with determination. After this battle, the disciples of the Immortal Sect understood even more clearly that on the road to improving their strength, every challenge is an opportunity for growth. Under Lin Feng's leadership, they will continue to refine their formations, meet more challenges in the future, and safeguard the glory and peace of the Immortal Sect.
