Chapter 278 - Space Collapse Function
"What a good formation." Yun Lintian couldn't help but admire Lord Sky Throne's clever formation setup method.
After thoroughly studying the formation diagram, he believed Lord Sky Throne must be an expert in the spatial element. The spatial suppressing formation he had set up here wasn't simple. It had another ability called Space Collapse. Once it was triggered, the entire space of Fallen Dragon Forest would crumble, and everything in this place would disappear by the spatial turbulence.
However, it came with a huge risk as it could not guarantee what extent its effect range would extend to. It might cover the whole divine city or half of the Northern Continent. No one knew. That was the reason Lord Sky Throne did not dare to use it to kill Fallen Dragon rashly.
Fortunately, Yun Lintian possessed vast formation knowledge as he studied Myriad Formation Scripture for years. Though he could not set up this kind of powerful formation yet, tweaking some points was not a problem. He might be able to reduce its scope and make sure the formation's effect range would be limited in this place.
"Here, drink some water, Brother Yun." Chu Mi came to Yun Lintian's side. She briefly glanced at the formation diagram with curiosity and handed Yun Lintian a glass of water with a sweet smile.
Yun Lintian happened to be thirsty. He retracted his gaze from the parchment and retrieved the glass of water from Chu Mi before drinking it in one go.
"Hah… Thank you." He returned the glass to Chu Mi and said politely.
Chu Mi smiled and said. "You shouldn't force yourself too much, Brother Yun. I think we still have time. It's better to take some rest."
Yun Lintian waved his hand. "No need. I have already figured it out."
Chu Mi's eyes widened in amazement. "Y-you have already understood it? That's amazing!"
"Have you?" Tian Jiuyi, who sat nearby, asked in disbelief. One had to know. It took him five years to completely understand this formation diagram. Yun Lintian had only used two hours. How could it be possible?
Yun Lintian nodded with a confident smile. "If we played it right, we might have a chance to get rid of the so-called Fallen Dragon."
Tian Jiuyi and Chu Mi had an astonished expression, and the former hurriedly asked. "Are you talking about the Space Collapse function? No, you can't use that. It's too risky!"
Yun Lintian smiled mysteriously. "As I said, I've understood everything about this formation. I can control its area of effect."
Tian Jiuyi's mouth opened and closed several times, but there was no word coming out. On the surface, he didn't believe Yun Lintian could do something that even his Ancestor, Lord Sky Throne, could not do, but his intuition somehow told him Yun Lintian might be able to achieve it… If it was the case, the greatest threat within Northern Continent would be eliminated. It was worth trying.
On the side, Chu Mi's eyes were full of stars. In her mind, there was nothing he could not do.
"What are you guys talking about?" Bai Qingyi approached Yun Lintian and asked curiously.
Yun Lintian turned to him and said. "Call everyone here. I have something to tell them."
In a minute, everyone quickly gathered around Yun Lintian and waited for him to explain.
Yun Lintian used a wooden stick he picked up nearby and drew a big circle on the ground. He then made another small circle in the four directions, north, east, west, and south.
"These four points are the crucial points of the formation. We need to divide people into two groups. Each group will take responsibility for two nearby points. I will lead one group, and Brother Tian will lead another group." Yun Lintian started to tell his plan.
"What do we have to do?" Qin Yuyan asked.
Yun Lintian continued. "Later, I'll make a formation stone and let Brother Tian put it on the formation. As for others, you all have to guard him and me when we are fixing the formation." He raised his head to look at everyone and said. "So we will divide the team according to our strength. To make it balance, Yang Chen, Bai Qingyi, and Chu Heng would go with Brother Tian, while the rest come with me."
Except for Tian Jiuyi, whose Yun Lintian believed he was stronger than anybody here, and Yun Lintian, Yang Chen, and Qin Yiran's strength were second to them, followed by Qin Yuyan, Bai Qingyi, Chu Heng, and Chu Mi. Therefore, letting Yang Chen, Bai Qingyi, and Chu Heng go with Tian Jiuyi, and Qin Yiran, Qin Yuyan, and Chu Mi go with Yun Lintian should be the best decision.
Everyone glanced at each other and nodded their heads, expressing they had no objection.
Before Yun Lintian could make a conclusion, Chu Mi suddenly raised her hand and said nervously. "Mhm… Brother Yun, can I go with my brother? I… I don't want to separate with him."
Yun Lintian was taken aback and then nodded his head slowly. "No problem." Chu Mi was the weakest here. Whichever team she went to, it wouldn't change anything much. Thus, Yun Lintian had no problem with her request.
"Thank you, Brother Yun!" Chu Mi smiled sweetly and trotted to Chu Heng's side. The latter gave an apologetic smile to everyone and looked at his sister with a helpless expression, but he felt at ease inwardly. At least, when something happened, he would be able to protect his sister.
"Remember, our enemy is likely to be the Saint Profound Beast. We certainly cannot fight them head-on, but we can use the formation to aid us. You have to listen to me and Brother Tian when we get there. Understood?" Yun Lintian said with a serious expression.
"Understood!" Everyone said solemnly in unison.
"Alright. We will go with this. All of you should take this time to prepare yourself. I'll prepare the formation stones first." Yun Lintian turned to Tian Jiuyi and said. "Brother Tian, please come with me."
Tian Jiuyi nodded and followed Yun Lintian to a large boulder in the distance.
