Chapter 1599 - 1599 As expected of a formation expert (2)
At this time, Yao Guang got busy. Formation flags and formation disks flew out from his hands, setting up one formation after another around Zhao Hai, trapping him in the formation.
Naturally, Zhao Hai wasn’t idle either. He had Cai ‘er and the others record down Yao Guang’s formation technique and spell formation. He even attached a needle of flowing silver to each of the formation flags.
The liquid silver Flying Needles were rapidly analyzing the materials used to make the formation flags and plates. Zhao Hai had only recently discovered this method and it was an ability he gained after the spatial zone was upgraded. This ability was extremely useful to Zhao Hai. In the past, he could only slowly analyze the formation flags and plates after bringing them into the spatial zone. Now, he could analyze them with the liquid silver needles.
Yao Guang was setting up the formation, and Zhao Hai was watching. The audience saw this and felt that something was amiss.
With the support of the cultivation world, Yao Guang had a lot of things to set up an array. The things he took out one by one were quite shocking.
Furthermore, Yao Guang was a genius in formations. The formations he set up were definitely overlapping formations. There were formations within formations, and they were connected to each other. All the formations had one target, Zhao Hai. When all these formations were set up, even a nascent Soul Stage expert would be in trouble.
The people of the cultivation world praised Yao Guang’s method, especially the elders of his sect, who were ready to train him as a core disciple. Although Yao Guang’s sect was not a traditional sect that focused on cultivation, they still had to put in a lot of effort to cultivate people with special talents like Yao Guang.
In the world of cultivation, every sect would have some special talents. As soon as they were discovered, the sect would immediately nurture them. They would not think that you were a special talent and would not suppress you. That was impossible. Even in sword cultivation sects, there were countless alchemy Masters, weapon masters, and array Masters.
And when things came to fruition, the alchemy Masters, weapon masters, and array Masters in the big sects were often more popular than the elders in the general sects. This was just like those in the field of technology. No matter where they went, they would be looked up by others. Even if you laughed at them behind their backs and said that they were only a technical worker, you would still have to call them master in front of them.
Although the people in Yao Guang’s sect thought that Yao Guang’s understanding of arrays was good, they only treated him as an ordinary inner disciple and not a core disciple. After all, Yao Guang had only ascended for less than five years. For the cultivators in the world of cultivation, five years was not a long time.
When the people from the mecha world saw that Zhao Hai was trapped by the layers of arrays like a bug on a spider’s web, their expressions changed. Zhao Hai was the hope of the mecha world. If Zhao Hai was really defeated, then the mecha world would be completely defeated.
The people from the other realms were also looking at Zhao Hai. They had all seen Zhao Hai’s strength. In their eyes, Zhao Hai was the most likely to win. Other than the devil realm, the other realms all wanted Zhao Hai to win. Although Zhao Hai had nothing to do with them, one should not forget that they also hated the people of the cultivation world like the people from the array realm. The enemy of an enemy was a friend. Even if someone you didn’t know beat your enemy, you would still feel happy. He might even have a good impression of that person. It was the same logic.
Apart from the devil realm’s people who still considered Zhao Hai a potential opponent, the people from the other realms all wanted to see how Zhao Hai would fight the people from the self-cultivation realm. Seeing Zhao Hai trapped in the array, they all became anxious.
Everyone had their own thoughts. On the contrary, Zhao Hai and Yao Guang did not think that much. Zhao Hai was not afraid of Yao Guang’s formation at all, and Yao Guang did not have the time to think so much. He just wanted to set up the formation as soon as possible.
Although Zhao Hai was just standing there, releasing a magic formation from time to time as if he was attacking the eight-Dragon lock, he was actually focusing his energy on communicating with Cai in his mind.
Yao Guang’s arrays were very special. They were arranged in circles from the inside out. Every time he finished setting up a circle, he would activate the array. Every time he activated a circle, Zhao Hai would feel a little more pressure in the array. It could be said that these arrays were superimposed. When all the arrays were set up, it was equivalent to all the arrays being one array. When they attacked Zhao Hai together, the power was extraordinary.
However, don’t think that just because you’ve broken one array, the entire array will fail. The array that Yao Guang had set up was made up of countless small arrays. Even if a person destroyed a part of it, the rest would still attack you. Moreover, according to Cai’s calculations, unless you destroyed about one-third of the entire array, the attacking power of this huge array would not be reduced.
Zhao Hai had stopped attacking the eight-Dragon lock because he didn’t need to. The lock had already begun to attack him. Moreover, the lock’s attacks were several times stronger than before. In the beginning, Zhao Hai had only used magic arrays with 100 magic arrays to fight the eight-Dragon lock to a standstill. However, he now needed to use at least 700 to 800 magic arrays to block the eight-Dragon lock’s attacks. Zhao Hai was now at a complete disadvantage, and Yao Guang’s plan was about to end.
Everyone knew that as soon as Yao Guang finished setting up the formation, he would immediately activate the formation to attack Zhao Hai. A formation that was controlled by someone was naturally incomparable to a formation that was not controlled by anyone. Therefore, when they saw that Yao Guang was almost done setting up the formation, everyone started to worry for Zhao Hai.
What they didn’t know was that Zhao Hai was waiting for Yao Guang to finish setting up everything. Once Yao Guang was done, he would check the power of Yao Guang’s setup and then break the arrays.
Why was Zhao Hai so confident that he could easily break Yao Guang’s formation? Of course, it was also because of the existence of liquid silver. The liquid silver needles had attached themselves to all the formation discs and formation flags of Yao Guang’s formation. As long as Zhao Hai gave the order, those liquid silver needles would immediately attack those formation discs and formation flags. Although the formation discs and formation flags had very strong attack power and were also magic formations, their main attack power was limited after they were formed. They did not have strong defense and attack power. They would be able to attack immediately. If the formation was destroyed, the formation would naturally be destroyed as well. This was why Zhao Hai was so confident.
It could be said that using a formation to deal with Zhao Hai was the most unreliable and useless method. Zhao Hai had space, so any illusion in the formation was useless against him. Zhao Hai had liquid silver, which could be transformed into thousands of Flying Needles. Its destructive power was not something that ordinary formation cultivators could compare to.
A formation cultivator had painstakingly set up a formation to deal with Zhao Hai, but with a snap of Zhao Hai’s fingers, all the formation flags and formation disks had been destroyed. That formation cultivator was truly at his wit’s end.
At this time, Yao Guang had also finished setting up all of his arrays. Zhao Hai asked Cai to do a quick calculation. This time, Yao Guang had set up a few hundred arrays of various sizes. There were more than a hundred array discs and more than two thousand array flags. How could a person who had ascended less than five years ago take out so many things without the support of a large sect? Even if he sold his body, he wouldn’t be able to gather enough money.
After Yao Guang finished setting up the formation, he let out a long sigh. He was really afraid that Zhao Hai would destroy the formation before he finished setting it up. If that happened, everything he had done would have been in vain. Fortunately, Zhao Hai had not done anything, which was why he was puzzled.
