Chapter 1012: Chapter 1016: Arrogance?

Six Sword Formation!

Symbolizing six different orientations.

The position of Zhu Yi is the weakest and easiest to break through in this formation.

However, Zhu Yi’s cultivation is vaguely the strongest among the six.

Five longswords converge, gathering and circling mid-air.

Zhu Yi’s Lihuo Sword, a spiritual artifact, stands above the five swords, forming the formation eye.

Once the six swords are in place, Xia Liu feels completely isolated from the outside.

The five swords rotate, and the overwhelming pressure fills the domain around.

Xia Liu’s feet slightly sink, ripples steadily rising on the water surface beneath him.

The ripples grow increasingly larger, beads of cold sweat appear on Xia Liu’s forehead.

Indeed, the Six Sword Formation is terrifying!

With his current cultivation, there’s no way to breach this formation.

“Daoist Fellow Xia, your cultivation is remarkable, but with such deep involvement in the world, your temper explodes fiercely. Perhaps no one within the realm is your rival, which leads to today’s arrogance.”

“Today, Shu Mountain’s six will show you, regardless of the time, humility is the eternal law!”

Hah!

At Zhu Yi’s words, the other five simultaneously let out a roaring shout.

In an instant, bursts of light erupt from the six formed fronts.

Gradually, the light connects to the six longswords.

Forming a domain of a hundred-meter range, trapping Xia Liu within.

Visible light covers Xia Liu.

The danger within is unknown.

But one can guess from the outside.

Within the Six Sword Formation, life and death stakes!

This is the imperishable truth passed down through the Six Sword Formation.

The crowd outside gazes at the nearly divine spectacle, their hearts numbed by shock.

Unimaginable, the young Xia Liu could cause the renowned Six from Shu Mountain to deploy the Extreme Sword Array.

How strong is his cultivation truly?

Perhaps, besides Xia Liu, no one knows where the limit lies.

“Is this really the Six Sword Formation?”

Xia Liu bends his legs slightly, feeling as if a great mountain presses on him, making each breath a struggle.

Six cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation, hearts in tune, deploying a sword formation passed down for thousands of years, power indeed terrifying!

“If you can endure for an hour, the six will spare your life.”

“An hour is too long, half an hour, I will surely break your Six Sword Formation!”

Xia Liu’s eyes sharpen, sweeping his gaze and let no arrogance hide.

“Haha! Ridiculous, half an hour to break the formation!”

“Such arrogance, at such a young age, how dare he do this.”

“Perhaps it’s a lesson learned. On closer look, the power behind him must be quite old-fashioned, otherwise how could they teach such a descendant.”

“Half an hour? Alas, prepare his corpse…”

…

Xia Liu’s words immediately evoke ridicule from those outside.

The combination of Shu Mountain’s Six and the sword formation has few rivals within the realm.

Xia Liu still dreams of breaking the formation.

This should be the year’s best cold joke, bar none.

Even the Six are somewhat surprised at Xia Liu.

Impossible to imagine, at his young age, how could he have such certainty.

Unless a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage or above accompanies him, otherwise, with his cultivation, he absolutely cannot break the formation.

The Six have absolute confidence in themselves.

This sword formation, since reaching the Transformed Boundary Realm, has only been broken by two people.

But those two, their cultivation were at the tenth level of Qi Cultivation.

And with hundreds of years of experience.

This is not something Xia Liu can compare to.

Thus, it is impossible for Xia Liu to break the formation!

The Six firmly hold this thought, perhaps he looks down on the sword formation!

Given this, it’s necessary to let him understand what the Six Sword Formation truly is!

“Activate formation!”

Zhu Yi lets out a huff, hands constantly changing seals.

In an instant, the six longswords change their current positions, sword tips descending below.

Constantly outputting sword qi.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Not giving Xia Liu a chance to prepare, the sword intent of the six disperses, invisibly, sword qi that cuts through iron like mud continuously bursts from the sword tips.

Xia Liu holds his breath, his form constantly shifting atop the pool.

With every move he makes, sword qi embeds into the water from its origin.

The ripples grow increasingly immense.

Xia Liu avoids the sword qi from above but also has to beware of the domain around the formation.

Because the formation enveloping him can, at any place or time, potentially erupt with sword qi!

This is quite terrifying, in unexpected places, the terrifying sword qi can erupt.

“Heaven and Earth Moving Wind!”

Energy sinks, extreme move emerges.

But the waves stirred by Heaven and Earth Moving Wind are shattered before reaching the formation’s edge by the terrible number of sword qi.

Rip!

A moment of carelessness, sword qi slashes his back, clothing instantly tears open in a large split.

Fortunately, it doesn’t harm his flesh.

Whizz whizz whizz!!!

As Xia Liu continuously evades within the sword formation, his reactions slow slightly.

In a critical moment, his body is slashed by several swords once again.

This time, not as lucky as before, his body bears several sword marks, blood flowing steadily from the wounds.

The crowd outside tighten their chests.

During Xia Liu’s movements, they cannot capture him with their eyes.

But when the sword formation enters a buffer, Xia Liu pauses.

Those hideous wounds make the crowd shiver in fear.

They imagine, if they were in the Six Sword Formation, they would likely perish the instant the formation activates.

Song He’s jade hands cover her lips, eyes brim with a red hue, she dares not watch.

Fearing that Xia Liu might fall lifeless under her gaze.

Fearing that when she meets him again, he might be without breath.

“Uncle Li, what shall we do, can Xia Liu endure?”

“Uncertain, since the Six Sword Formation activated, ten minutes have passed, he’s yet to counterattack, perhaps waiting for the opportune moment.”

What can Li Jianguo say.

If he were in the sword formation, perhaps the mere aura could crush him to death.

Xia Liu’s persistence till now, it’s either he found the secret to breaking it or he’s contemplating how to breach it with brutal strength.

Or perhaps, he’s gathering a super invincible move, only this requires a longer time.

Another ten minutes go by, the Six Sword Formation’s assault weakens.

At this moment, Xia Liu halts his fleeting figure, freezing in the central region of the sword formation.

“It should be about time now…”

Xia Liu looks up at the dazzling six swords above, murmuring.

“Senior Brother, what’s he doing?”

“He might believe the key to breaking the formation lies with the six artifacts.”

Zhu Yi’s divine sense responds to the other five.

If it were a regular cultivator, they would definitely try everything to strike the six spirit swords above.

Unfortunately, the key to breaking the formation is not in the six spiritual artifacts.

Once the artifacts are attacked, there will be a terrifying sword flow striking down, not only depleting the trapped ones’ spiritual energy.

One slight misstep, and even one’s life may be threatened endlessly.

However, the next second, the Six are stunned, the entire arena falls silent…
