I was reborn as a young master in an invincible family of immortals

Chapter 140: Crisis Comes and Responds Cleverly

The patrolling cultivator from the mysterious force was approaching the hiding place of Lin Yun and the others step by step, with vigilance and alertness in his eyes, and the magic weapon in his hand was flashing with spiritual power, ready to launch an attack at any time.

Lin Yun and the others held their breath, not daring to move. They knew that if they were discovered, escaping would be difficult, as they were surrounded by numerous members of mysterious factions and powerful formations. Just as the cultivator was only a few steps away, about to discover them, Chen Yu seized the opportunity and unleashed his Concealing Spirit Blade, firing it at a nearby boulder.

The spiritual blade struck the boulder, making a loud noise that instantly attracted the cultivator's attention. Thinking someone was hiding behind the boulder, he immediately turned and rushed towards it, shouting, "Something's happening! Help!"

"Good opportunity, let's quickly destroy the formation nodes!" Lin Yun whispered, and while the cultivators from other mysterious forces had not arrived yet, he led everyone to rush quickly towards the key rune nodes that had been locked before, trying to damage the formation before the enemy could react and disrupt the plans of the mysterious forces.

Everyone quickly arrived near the key rune node, only to discover that the spiritual energy fluctuations there were extremely chaotic and powerful, as if an invisible force was guarding the node, preventing outsiders from approaching. Lin Yun tried to touch that layer of power with his spiritual staff, but the moment he made contact, he felt a powerful recoil, which made his arm numb and almost let the staff fall out of his hand.

"This defense is incredibly strong! Let's all try and use our spiritual energy to see if we can break it," Lin Yun said, frowning. Everyone nodded, each channeling their own spiritual energy to attack the power guarding the node. Suddenly, a cascade of spiritual energy converged and blasted towards the target. However, the attack only caused a ripple, and the protective power remained as solid as ever, showing no sign of being shaken.

"We can't go on like this. We have to try another method. Wang Lin, can you find any flaws or weak links in this protective power?" Lin Yun looked at Wang Lin anxiously. Wang Lin hurried forward and carefully observed the fluctuations of spiritual power and the arrangement of runes around the rune nodes, trying to find a way to crack it.

Wang Lin studied intently, beads of sweat gradually forming on her forehead. Her gaze moved inch by inch along the rune nodes, not missing a single detail. Finally, she noticed a rune below the node that glowed slightly dimmer than the others. Furthermore, the spiritual energy fluctuations there seemed to be a brief pause, suggesting this was likely the weak spot in the overall protective power.

"Senior Brother Lin Yun, this might be a weak point. Let's concentrate our strength and attack here." Wang Lin pointed to that location and said. When everyone heard it, they immediately adjusted their positions, gathered their spiritual power together, formed a more powerful spiritual power attack, and slammed it towards the weak point.

This time, the attack worked. Cracks appeared in the protective force under the combined attack of everyone. With a series of "cracking" sounds, the cracks spread rapidly, and the invisible protective force collapsed, turning into points of spiritual light and dissipating in the air, revealing the key rune nodes. Everyone was delighted, knowing that they were one step closer to destroying the formation.

Seeing the opportunity, Lin Yun immediately swung his staff and smashed it hard at the rune node. The tip of the staff unleashed a powerful spiritual force, colliding with the rune node, instantly unleashing a dazzling burst of light and intense spiritual energy fluctuations. After the heavy blow, the rune node began to twist and deform, and the rune light on it flickered, as if struggling in pain.

As the rune nodes were damaged, the entire massive spiritual energy formation was affected. The previously smoothly functioning spiritual energy vortex began to become chaotic, and bursts of rumbling sounds emanated from the vortex, as if something was roaring angrily within. The cultivators from the surrounding mysterious forces noticed the anomaly in the formation and rushed towards it. For a moment, shouts and cries of killing rose up, and the valley fell into chaos.

"Everyone be careful, the enemy is coming. Let's continue to destroy other nodes and we must completely destroy this formation!" Lin Yun shouted and led everyone to rush towards the next key node. They knew that there was no way out at this moment and they had to complete the task as soon as possible. Otherwise, once they were surrounded by the enemy, not only would all their previous efforts be wasted, but they would also be in desperate situation.

However, the mysterious force's cultivators were numerous and quickly surrounded Lin Yun and the others. Their eyes were filled with anger as they gazed at the destroyed formation nodes. They unleashed their skills and launched a fierce attack. A cascade of spiritual energy, each mingling, rained down upon Lin Yun and the others. The overwhelming pressure made it difficult for them to breathe.

Lin Yun and the others stood back to back in a circle, desperately resisting the enemy's attacks. Lin Yun waved his spiritual staff, casting a spiritual light curtain to try to block most of the attacks; Su Yao played the Lingxi Jade Flute, and the spiritual energy waves transformed into spiritual blades, shooting towards the enemy's dense area, disrupting their attack rhythm; Chen Yu used the stealth technique to shuttle through the encirclement, looking for opportunities to cast hidden spiritual blades and launch sneak attacks on the enemy; Wang Lin continuously threw various talismans, some of which turned into blazing flames, instantly forming a sea of ​​​​fire around the enemy, while others formed tough ropes to try to bind the enemy's hands and feet; Zhao Gang, holding a shield, stood firmly in front of the group. With his superb defensive power, he withstood the enemy's wave after wave of frontal attacks, creating a relatively safe output environment for his teammates.

Despite the ferocious enemy offensive, Lin Yun and his companions, relying on their tacit coordination and tenacious will, withstood wave after wave of attacks. During the fierce battle, Lin Yun discovered that on one side of the enemy encirclement, the coordination of several cultivators was slightly weak, seemingly gathered together improvisationally. This might be the point of breakthrough.

"Everyone, charge over there! Combine your strength and charge out!" Lin Yun shouted, unleashing the full power of his spirit staff. He unleashed a powerful spiritual attack in that direction, instantly creating a gap. Seeing this, the other teammates also used all their strength, following Lin Yun and charging towards the gap.

The cultivators of the mysterious force tried to stop them, but Lin Yun and the others had already given their all. Like a raging torrent, they broke through the enemy's encirclement and rushed out of the valley. The enemy pursued them relentlessly, occasionally launching long-range spiritual attacks in an attempt to stop them, but they did not dare to stop, their only hope being to escape their pursuit and return to the sect as soon as possible.

After a difficult escape, Lin Yun and his companions finally returned to the sect in a state of disarray. Seeing their plight, the sect's members were horrified and rushed forward to inquire about the situation. Lin Yun, without even a moment's rest, immediately reported in detail to the sect leader and representatives of the various sects about his discovery of the mysterious formation in the valley and his attempts to destroy it.

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned extremely grim. They realized that the mysterious force indeed had a back-up plan. If this mysterious formation were to be used during a major battle, the consequences would be disastrous. Immediately, representatives from each sect held an urgent meeting and decided to adjust the original battle plan.

Several elite teams were dispatched to areas where mysterious forces might launch raids to strengthen defenses. At the same time, cultivators skilled in breaking formations were arranged to go with them. They were prepared to find ways to interfere with and destroy the mysterious formations as soon as they were discovered to be activated during the battle, to ensure that their own defenses would not be easily breached.

In addition, he once again reminded the disciples of all sects to remain vigilant at all times and pay attention to the fluctuations and changes in the spiritual power around them. Once there is any abnormal situation, they should report it in a timely manner so that they can quickly respond. The entire world of immortal cultivation has entered a more tense state of preparation for war because of this new situation. The atmosphere of the war has become increasingly intense, as if it is about to break out.

After Lin Yun and his team failed to destroy the formation and escaped, the mysterious force fell into a panic. The top leaders gathered urgently to discuss the variables caused by the formation's discovery and partial destruction.

"Damn it, I didn't expect them to find the formation in the valley and almost destroyed it. Now we have to change the plan." The black-robed leader said angrily, with a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

After some discussion, they decided to strengthen the protection of the remaining formation nodes, and at the same time change the deployment of some troops, transferring part of the forces originally prepared for a surprise attack through the formation to other important strongholds in advance, preparing to confront the various sects head-on, and arranged more secret sentries and traps, intending to cause greater losses to the other side in the war. Even if the original conspiracy cannot be fully realized, all forces in the world of immortal cultivation will pay a heavy price.

With the war imminent, each sect was conducting its final morale-boosting exercises. The sect leaders and elders stood before their disciples, offering earnest and powerful words of encouragement.

"Dear disciples, we have been preparing for this war for a long time. Now, the enemy is right in front of us. Although they are cunning, we have firm beliefs, the power of unity, and justice is on our side. Everyone is a hero protecting the world of immortal cultivation. No matter how great the difficulties are, we must fight side by side and never retreat! I believe that with our joint efforts, we will be able to defeat evil, defend our homeland, and restore peace to the world of immortal cultivation!" The words of the head elder echoed in the sect square. After hearing this, the disciples were all excited, their eyes filled with fearlessness and determination, and they shouted slogans in unison. The high morale seemed to be able to break through the clouds, and the whole world of immortal cultivation was shrouded in an atmosphere of moving forward.

Finally, after intense preparations and anticipation, the battle horn sounded. A mysterious force launched the first attack, sending a massive influx of cultivators from various strongholds toward the areas guarded by the various sects. For a moment, the sky was ablaze with spiritual energy, magical weapons crisscrossed, and shouts of killing resounded through the air, plunging the entire world of cultivation into chaos.

Undaunted, disciples from all sects rushed forward to meet the enemy, unleashing their most powerful techniques and magical powers in a desperate struggle against the mysterious cultivators. Lin Yun and his companions led the charge, charging into the enemy lines. Their magical weapons shone brilliantly, and their spiritual attacks lashed out at the enemy like a violent storm. Each one was determined to die. On this turbulent battlefield, they shed their blood to protect the peace and tranquility of the world of immortal cultivation, composing a chapter of heroic battle. The ultimate outcome of this battle would determine the future of the entire world of immortal cultivation.
