Chapter 414: Determined Style
When Liu Yu's magical power fully recovered, the time was almost up. He controlled the Li Xuan Sword and the Mother-Child Soul Pursuing Blade to continue their assault.
This battle seemed to be smooth sailing with victory assured.
Thus, the cultivators from the Wei Family, Zhao Family, and other later allies put in their utmost effort to perform well.
The battle of the Yan State was nearing its end, and this conflict was likely to be the last large-scale battle.
Therefore, they were unwilling to miss this final opportunity and almost all of them wanted to impress the new sect leader.
Securing benefits was important, but it was equally crucial to maintain their acquired interests.
Such cultivators were no longer a small minority within the Three Sects' ranks; they had been the most vigorous during the assault on Cloud High Mountain.
They were even outperforming many of their own sect's cultivators.
As for their former "masters," they showed no mercy whatsoever.
"Boom!"
The continuous rumbling came from the blue barrier.
The celestial wood mystical spirit formation was reinforced by generations of ancestors from the White Cloud Temple, proving itself solid against the overwhelming attacks, which even included magical artifacts driven by golden core cultivators. It remained as steady as Mount Tai.
Not even a hint of "ripples" was stirred.
It exuded an aura of being unbreakable.
Notably, the magical artifacts wielded by Master Changfeng, Master Sanjie, and Master Chongxuan were the most eye-catching.
If the sky full of attacks was likened to a sea of stars, then the magical artifacts of the three masters were like a "bright moon" surrounded by those stars.
Brilliant and dazzling, they were impossible to ignore.
The disciples of the White Cloud Temple were acutely aware of this.
Although their magical artifacts could not truly penetrate due to the formation's barriers, the immense, stern power they emanated was something they could fully feel.
And it sent shivers down their spines!
Every strike from the three magical artifacts felt like it was hitting the hearts of some cultivators.
Some weak-willed cultivators were filled with a fear that made them want to shatter into pieces, their fighting spirit crumbling continuously.
While the White Cloud Temple also had a golden core master of the same level, sheer numbers could still overwhelm them.
After all, facing forty cultivators against one hundred was not a mere one-fold difference in quantity but a massive advantage.
Thus, in the face of the Chu State's Three Sects' assault, the White Cloud Temple had no means to resist.
They could only intercept attacks as best as they could while conserving magical power, then watch helplessly as the remaining attacks landed on the blue light barrier.
Even though the formation remained intact and steady like Mount Tai, showing no signs of being breached, the stark disparity in strength caused many White Cloud Temple cultivators to feel a surge of panic.
Once the formation was broken, the consequences...
Although cultivators typically possessed strong will, the psychological pressure they were under at this moment exceeded what many could handle.
The saying "a thousand-mile dam collapses from an ant's nest" was entirely applicable here.
However, the cultivators currently holding their ground at Cloud High Mountain were mostly direct disciples of the White Cloud Temple, with clean backgrounds and unwavering loyalty.
Precisely because of this, they chose to stand together in life and death during this critical moment!
But facing such immense pressure, a few less loyal cultivators found their "will" quietly wavering.
Inside the formation, Master Qingwei had arranged for the sect's inheritance matters, and he personally came to the front lines to oversee the defense.
Faced with repeated futile attacks from the Three Sects, he gradually frowned.
"Changfeng, Sanjie, and Chongxuan are all deep thinkers."
"They wouldn't be unaware that the celestial wood mystical spirit formation is a fourth-tier formation."
