The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

After Xueer understood Chen Subaru's intention, she said nothing more and just reminded him to pay attention to his safety. She controlled the Liangyi Heavenly Ice Sword and flew quietly near Lin Yue, taking cover.

After Xue'er left, Chen Subaru quietly meditated and adjusted his breath in a hidden corner behind the formation. When he was practicing the control of Yin and Yang Realm Gate before, he consumed a lot of spiritual energy. However, after gaining experience, he controlled the consumption to less than 30%, so that even if he did not absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, his spirit body could quickly restore the spiritual energy in the sea of ​​​​qi.

When he felt that his control over the gates of Yin and Yang had improved, he rushed to the battlefield at full speed. I didn’t replenish my spiritual energy too much along the way. At this time, before the enemy launched an attack, he seized the time to restore the consumed spiritual energy to ensure that he was in the best condition to face the enemy.

Three hours later, Chen Subaru sensed a strong aura from the opponent's camp, and five powerful streams of consciousness swept towards the formation like a violent storm.

"Coming!" Chen Subaru sent a message to remind Lin Yue, and used his spiritual consciousness to deal with the five puppets Qianhu.

These five strands of spiritual consciousness came from behind the formation, and were extremely targeted. They were like five violent shock waves, heading straight for the five Qianhu spirit bodies. This move surprised the five thousand households, because once their spiritual consciousness was released, it was omnidirectional. They mistakenly thought that the opponent was also at least five late-stage Nascent Soul monks waiting for them, but their spiritual consciousness was interfered by Chen Subaru. , unable to completely penetrate the formation, and unable to understand who the opponent is.

However, this is inconsistent with previous intelligence. According to the detailed information on the deployment of various military towns of the Beifu Army provided by the Xuanwu Army in the Human Puppet Camp, there are no Yuanying monks at all. Even if someone chooses to hide their cultivation or make a temporary breakthrough, it is impossible to gather five late-stage Nascent Soul monks in Puyang County.

After the five thousand households discussed it through sound transmission, they thought that this might be some kind of powerful magic weapon hidden in the strange formation in front of them, and it could also simulate an attack on the spiritual consciousness, making it difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

As puppets, they do not have the greed of monks. After learning that there might be a powerful magic weapon hidden in the formation, they had no intention of seizing the treasure. However, they will not back down easily because of temporary temptation. Even if there are really five late Nascent Soul cultivators in front of them, they still dare to try their skills, let alone just for a mere magic weapon.

As a result, five thousand households launched a surprise attack on the formation. Previously, the five of them learned some information about the formation from two hundred households and knew that this formation could extract spiritual power. Those phantoms should be condensed using the extracted spiritual power. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to imagine how just two hundred monks with varying levels of abilities could condense enough shadows in the formation to compete with numerous pill-forming and mind-concentrating puppets.

In this raid, the five thousand households did not involve the two hundred households in the camp and their men. As human puppets, they are unlikely to resort to extreme tactical attacks unless ordered to do so. Previously, the whereabouts of Qian Hu and eight Bai Hu who were chasing the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Jin Dynasty were unknown, and the Nascent Soul cultivator has not yet appeared. They had reason to suspect that the opponent was not participating in the defense of the formation, but was waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack on their rear. Therefore, the puppets will definitely leave enough people to guard the rear. Even the Qianhu who pursued Chen Subaru secretly hid three Baihu as backup.

Each of the five thousand households gathered their spiritual consciousness and adjusted their coverage area to just enough to cover the entire front of the formation. Under the guidance of their spiritual consciousness, they used spells one after another to launch intensive bombardments on the surface of the formation.

Lin Yue, who had already received Chen Subaru's reminder, commanded 200 monks to respond with all their strength to the fierce attack of the five half-step god puppets.

The spiritual light of various magic spells intensively bombarded the surface of the formation, illuminating the entire mask in colorful colors. The huge sound caused by the collision of spiritual powers can be clearly heard even in military towns dozens of miles away.

In their first encounter, both the offense and defense were secretly surprised.

The surprise of the five thousand households was that the all-out attack by the five of them failed to immediately break down the defense of the formation. They did not go deep into the formation, and the formation did not absorb additional spiritual power. For the two hundred monks below, even if the formation was filled with high-grade spiritual stones, their spiritual power supply could not keep up with the bombardment of five people's spells.

Lin Yue and others were equally surprised by this effect, and were also shocked by the spiritual energy consumption of the formation. They have never had the experience of fighting against an opponent with half-step to become a god, so they had never realized how much spiritual power they would consume when fighting against such an opponent.

Under the control of Lin Yue and Gui Wu, the "Pseudo Yin and Yang Killing Formation" has quietly changed. Gui Wu led a hundred monks to try their best to expand the coverage of the formation, while Lin Yue led another hundred monks to stick to the position and maintain the original position of the spiritual shield.

Since the five thousand households did not come close for reconnaissance, they were always outside the coverage of the formation and did not feel the impact of the formation. Therefore, they did not realize that the formation had actually expanded its coverage. When the spells they cast entered the coverage area of ​​the formation, the spiritual energy contained in them was plundered by the formation. When the originally powerful attack bombarded the surface of the shield, its power was greatly attenuated. Under the ebb and flow, these seemingly violent attacks cannot shake the rock-solid defensive shield at all.

In order to enhance the performance, Lin Yue also made the shield retreat slightly after being bombarded, creating the illusion that the opponent's attack was so powerful that the shield was constantly shaking.

Even so, the spiritual power consumption of the formation still exceeded Lin Yue's expectations. In just a short time, the monks had to take out a large amount of reserved spiritual stones to fill the spiritual power gap in the formation.

Facing a round of all-out spell bombardment from five thousand households, the formation stood firm. They immediately noticed something strange in the formation. In order to facilitate the army to break the formation in the future, the five people planned to enter the formation to find out what was going on. After a brief exchange, they formulated a set of tactics. The two continued to attack from a distance, while the other three broke into the formation directly to explore the reality of the formation. If the formation can be broken, they will go all out to kill the monks in the formation; if they cannot break the formation, they will withdraw immediately after ascertaining the situation.

After the discussion, the five people did not give the monks in the formation much chance to breathe, and then launched the second round of attack.

The three Qianhu who broke into the formation knew that the formation had the ability to absorb the spiritual power of those who entered the formation, so they chose to fall from a high altitude to increase the speed of their advance and avoid accidents after the formation absorbed enough spiritual power.

Chen Subaru, who had been watching the battle from behind the formation, knew that the time was ripe after witnessing the opponent's actions. He maintained the pressure of his consciousness on the five people and quickly flew into the formation.

Although these Qianhu's long-range attacks made Lin Yue feel a little difficult, she could still deal with them. However, she was most worried about their high-altitude invasion tactics. After all, the gap in cultivation between the two sides was too large, and the formation did not have enough time to absorb spiritual power to generate a countervailing shadow. Suddenly, Lin Yue seemed to foresee her own death.
