Lost!

Everything was calculated, but the one thing that was not expected was that Mi Xiaojing actually had such a bizarre formation.

Sword shadows danced and clashed against Chen Shouyi's protective magical sword. This sudden attack left him completely defenseless, and he could only desperately protect his own body. He didn't even have time to release talismans as he frantically cast incantations and commanded his magical sword to defend.

The pressure was overwhelming!

Mi Xiaojing was also not at ease. He mobilized the Green Wood Formation, which required a large amount of spirit stones. Once the spirit stones were depleted and he hadn't killed Chen Shouyi, he would also be unable to withstand the counterattack.

Gritting his teeth, Mi Xiaojing threw out two high-grade spirit stones. These were one of the rewards he received when he cured Elder Yu Hong, and he hadn't even been willing to use them when refining the Thunder Sword. But this time, he had no choice but to use them.

The two high-grade spirit stones were immediately absorbed by the large formation, greatly increasing the power of the Green Wood Formation.

Chen Shouyi was startled. He found that the illusory sword shadows were about to become solid swords, and their strength was rapidly increasing. This forced him to increase his output. The consumption was unbelievable, and the formation seemed to be too powerful.

The sword rain suddenly stopped, as if it had never appeared before, leaving people in a bewildered state.

In an instant, huge green woods reappeared around Chen Shouyi. This time, the green woods were different, larger, and greener. The green color was like jade, and the most terrifying thing was that there were strands of green flames within the green woods, gradually spreading across the surface.

Wood generates fire!

This was a change in the formation's attack form. If the sword shadow attack was just the preliminary form, then this wood generating fire technique was a real attribute attack with even greater power.

Collision!

Countless green woods collided, and just as Chen Shouyi defended against the impact, the green flames directly spewed out.

Roaring in chaos, Chen Shouyi was also dazed. For a moment, he only remembered to resist with all his might. The impact was so powerful that his Golden Elixir inside his body was about to burst. After several consecutive defenses, the consumption of true essence was terrifying. He was forced to swallow a spirit pill to quickly replenish it.

Since advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage, Chen Shouyi had never experienced such a situation. He held a high position in the sect. When had he ever encountered such a miserable situation of being suppressed and beaten by someone, let alone being beaten by a Foundation Establishment junior? This frustration was driving him crazy.

Mi Xiaojing's formation change was too much for Chen Shouyi to handle. Gritting his teeth, he took out a Thunder Shock Bead.

We are bit.ly/3iBfjkV, find us on google.

This thing was also something he had obtained, a powerful Thunder Gang bead condensed through special means. Chen Shouyi had a total of seven Thunder Shock Beads, which he had always treasured and was reluctant to use unless absolutely necessary.

Due to the increasingly rapid bombardment of the green woods, Chen Shouyi was becoming more and more overwhelmed. Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer and raised his hand to shoot out a Thunder Shock Bead.

This thing should also be refined by a Golden Elixir stage cultivator. As soon as it was used, a streak of thunder and fire shot out, directly hitting the green woods.

A deafening explosion sounded, startling Mi Xiaojing. The green woods that were originally colliding with Chen Shouyi instantly turned into green smoke, dissipating with the explosion of the Thunder Shock Bead.

Due to the restraint of the Green Wood Formation, this explosion did not spread, and its power was completely absorbed by the formation.

Chen Shouyi became happy. The Thunder Shock Bead could shake the Green Wood Formation, which relieved him. He then raised his hand and shot out another Thunder Shock Bead.

Boom!

Chen Shouyi was pleased to see that this Thunder Shock Bead destroyed more than a dozen green woods and interrupted the transformation of the green woods. This immediately lifted his spirits.

Mi Xiaojing cast another incantation, and the formation began to change. In an instant, all the green woods exploded and turned into countless green smoke floating around. For a while, the world seemed to enter a chaotic state, with no sky, no ground, and no specific objects visible.

Chen Shouyi flew around on his flying sword, but he still lacked combat experience and didn't know how to respond.

Mi Xiaojing was clearly stronger in this aspect. It wasn't because he had rich combat experience, but because he had obtained Wang Weijun's combat inheritance, giving him a natural advantage in combat. Especially in judging the situation in battle, Mi Xiaojing was much stronger than Chen Shouyi.

Actually, the front yard of the Gathering Spring Courtyard was not large. With the speed of cultivators flying on their swords, it would only take a second, or even less, to fly across the front yard. However, under the cover of the Green Wood Formation, Chen Shouyi, a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, couldn't fly out at all. The speed at which the formation changed was astonishing.

Chen Shouyi desperately flew, but the surroundings were still chaotic, and he couldn't find a way out. He thought he should have flown out long ago, but he still couldn't see any scenery outside.

Formation restrictions were a very important part of the cultivation world. The difficulty of practicing formations was even more complex than refining pills, refining tools, and making talismans.

High-level cultivators, especially those who reached the Elemental Infant stage, would generally conduct in-depth research on formations, seeking all available knowledge and scriptures to study. They had plenty of time to delve into it.However, for cultivators below the Elemental Infant stage, unless they have a particular fondness for formations, they don't have much time to spend on them. Of course, every cultivator knows the basic formations. Strictly speaking, whether it's the patterns on the pills or the various attribute spirit patterns on the talismans, they are all closely related to formations.

A person proficient in formations generally won't perform poorly in refining tools and talismans. However, the reverse is not necessarily true. A cultivator proficient in refining tools or talismans may not necessarily become a master of formations.

Formations are a unique system. Those proficient in formations, in addition to the application of formations themselves, usually also need to master the so-called Eight Diagrams and the principles of change.

Chen Shouyi is a person who is rather confused about formations. He has come across many formations, and alchemy itself also requires learning to control certain formations. However, when faced with a powerful formation like the Qingmu Formation, he is completely helpless.

Unable to find a breakthrough, even though his strength is stronger than Mi Xiaojing's, he can only flit around like a headless fly within the formation. Even Wang Weijun couldn't bear to watch.

"Is this a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator? The cultivators nowadays are too disappointing. Back in our days, when we advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, we at least had a good understanding of formations. At the very least, we wouldn't be so mindless when trapped in a formation. Kid, if you can't even kill him, I will really look down on you!"

Mi Xiaojing gave a bitter smile. He didn't have the confidence to kill Chen Shouyi. He always thought that Foundation Establishment stage cultivators were very strong. When the Western Evolutionary Sect was annihilated, the Heart Sect only sent out one Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, and the entire Western Evolutionary Sect was slaughtered without any resistance.

Of course, there was also a hint of excitement in his heart. A Foundation Establishment stage cultivator was actually being beaten by him to such a sorry state. Even if he was relying on the power of the Qingmu Formation, this formation was his own and was part of his strength. (To be continued.)
