In just an instant, Qi Yugang realized that he had lost control of the formation, and the infinite killing intent was surging towards him madly.
“It’s impossible! Who exactly are you? How can a person at the Mystic Level have such profound mastery of formations?”
Qi Yugang exclaimed in horror, his face showing disbelief, unable to fathom everything happening before him.
The reason he looked down on Qin Chen so much was entirely because he clearly sensed that the aura emanating from Qin Chen was indeed only at the fourth rank of the Mystic Level. According to the rules of the continent, even if Qin Chen's mastery of formations was high, he could at most only be a fourth-rank formation master.
Thus, although he felt it strange that Qin Chen allowed him to set up the formation earlier, he merely thought that Qin Chen's mastery was low and could not stop him.
However, now, in the blink of an eye, Qin Chen had formed a counter-control formation, instantly turning his carefully prepared killing formation against him.
In that moment, he fully comprehended that the formation level of this Mystic Level martial artist in front of him far surpassed his own, and it was definitely more than just that of a fourth-rank formation master.
But how could this be possible?
His heart was screaming.
The other party looked so young; how could he possess such formation skills? Even if he practiced formations from the womb, it would be impossible to reach this level.
The path of formations is vast and boundless. After years of hard work, he had only reached a mid-stage fifth-rank formation master, yet this young man, clearly under twenty, and merely a Mystic Level martial artist, had at least reached the peak of fifth-rank formation master.
Not to mention he had never seen someone like this before; even now that he had witnessed it firsthand, Qi Yugang still could not believe his eyes.
Ge Peng and the others were also completely stunned. They had thought that once Qi Yugang struck, Qin Chen would be instantly defeated. They did not expect that in the blink of an eye, the situation would change drastically.
The group was utterly confused, not understanding what had just happened.
“You’re not a fourth-rank formation master; you’re a fifth-rank formation master! Earlier, when you said you didn't understand the Six Harmonies Refining Array, you were lying to me!”
After the shock, Qi Yugang quickly sobered up, staring fiercely at Qin Chen, roaring with rage.
Qin Chen smiled faintly, “That’s right, I do know the Six Harmonies Refining Array. Not only that, but I’m also well aware of the Devouring Truth Array that you secretly set up. I just didn’t say anything.”
“You…”
Qi Yugang spat out a mouthful of blood. He had actually been scheming in front of a formation master who was stronger than himself. Now he finally understood why the other party hadn’t acted when he was setting up the formation; it was because the other party was completely unafraid.
“But why didn’t you stop me earlier?”
Qi Yugang couldn’t understand. If the other party saw through his plan, why did he allow him to act?
Qin Chen smiled casually, “I’ve already said, why should I act? These guys were originally using me. You and they are just dogs biting dogs; I just needed to watch from the sidelines.”
Qi Yugang’s expression turned dark. He finally understood that Qin Chen and Ge Peng were not on good terms either, and a conflict would eventually erupt.
His appearance had given this kid a chance. He knew very well that if he wanted to seize the Ku Yun Zhi, he would have to eliminate these fifth-rank late-stage martial masters first.
So he had been patiently waiting in the back, planning to take the opportunity once he and these martial masters clashed.
What a despicable little brat!
Qi Yugang felt a chill in his heart. Such scheming made him shiver all over.
“You think that by trapping me with formations, you can kill me? Let me go, and I’m willing to give up what I have on me. I do not wish to be your enemy.”
