Chapter 2482
Merely changing the attack direction of a formation was not a difficult task for Lin Moyu.
The only trouble now was time.
Setting up the Space-Splitting Killing Formation required time, and with the blood web constantly contracting, the time left for Lin Moyu was not much.
Yan Bei launched attacks at the blood web time and time again, tireless. Although his attacks could not break through the blood web, they were able to slow down its contraction speed.
The Five Elements Sword Demon was still slaughtering the remaining Bloody Rat Monsters. By now, it had wiped out all the six-winged Bloody Rat Monsters and had turned its target to the four-winged Bloody Rat Monsters.
With its small body, it swung a small sharp sword, drawing terrifying sword power from the Great Dao of Sword, evolving into strands of terrifying sword qi.
With every attack, Four-Winged Rat Generals died under its sword. Sometimes a few, other times dozens.
Sometimes, the Five Elements Sword Demon would even unleash the Five Elements Sword Sea, instantly covering a large area and killing thousands of Bloody Rat Monsters.
Facing the Five Elements Sword Demon, the Bloody Rat Monsters had no power to resist and were left only to await slaughter.
A single Five Elements Sword Demon was enough to crush them, let alone the three thousand Skeleton Kings and the one billion strong Undead Legion.
It was also under these circumstances of certain defeat that the Bloody Legion resorted to their final method of mutual destruction.
Lin Moyu had already anticipated that in that prehistoric battle, reinforcements must have arrived, and they had beaten the Bloody Legion until they had no power to fight back.
In the end, the Bloody Legion activated the blood web. As for what happened after the blood web was activated, it was unknown.
How many of the Divine Talisman Army survived here before the reinforcements arrived was also unknown.
But Lin Moyu believed that the prehistoric battle could not have been more intense than the current one.
Because of his intervention, the damage suffered by the Divine Talisman Army was less than one percent.
In a great battle, having only one percent damage—one could imagine how low this casualty rate was.
Judging by this requirement, he had also over-fulfilled the mission.
The setter of the rules did not look at the process, only the results.
Lin Moyu had already grasped this point and likewise only pursued results.
Su Fengze finally finished clearing his target; the Bloody Legion on an entire island had been wiped out by him alone.
Fighting ten thousand alone—this sense of achievement made Su Fengze very excited.
From the time he began cultivating until now, when had he ever experienced slaughter on such a scale?
Su Fengze declared, "I've killed to my heart's content!"
He knew very well that he could kill so enjoyably thanks to Lin Moyu.
If it weren't for Lin Moyu helping him block the reinforcements, let alone killing enjoyably, he would likely have been in danger himself. The ten Divine Talisman Army soldiers he summoned had already lost seven in battle, but they had also completed their mission.
Su Fengze turned his head to look at Lin Moyu, and the next second his eyes widened, his eyeballs almost popping out. "Fellow Daoist Lin, you are setting up a formation!"
"Fellow Daoist Lin, you actually know formations!"
He could not believe it. With such aptitude as Lin Moyu's, reaching the Dao Venerable 3rd Realm at such a young age, all his energy must have been focused on cultivation.
Yet Lin Moyu actually understood formations; it was simply inconceivable.
Su Fengze felt his fragile heart suffer critical damage once again.
He did not understand why such a freak like Lin Moyu could be born under the Great Dao.
He watched Lin Moyu's movements; they were smooth and flowing, and every gesture was filled with the charm of the Dao.
Although Su Fengze was not proficient in formations, he knew the basic common sense regarding them.
Lin Moyu's movements undoubtedly told him that Lin Moyu was extremely familiar with formations and was no novice. He became more and more alarmed as he watched; Lin Moyu kept throwing out origin crystals while his right hand drew runes, weaving them together to form a formation.
Su Fengze swallowed hard and murmured, "This is no ordinary formation; it is a fusion of talisman and artifact formations. This top-tier method of setting up formations is rare even among formation masters."
"Fellow Daoist Lin is not an ordinary formation master; he is a top-tier grandmaster of formations."
He finally managed to withdraw his attention from Lin Moyu and turned to look at the blood web.
The blood web was still continuously contracting, and Yan Bei was constantly launching attacks at it. Although it had little effect, he was tireless.
Now, it wasn't just Yan Bei; the Five Elements Sword Demon was also launching attacks at the blood web.
The Bloody Rat Monsters had been mostly wiped out, and the Dragon Cavalry Legion was finishing up the work.
After looking a few times, Su Fengze already knew why Lin Moyu was doing this. "Fellow Daoist Lin intends to use a formation to counter the blood web."
"Yan Bei and that little fellow are constantly attacking the blood web to delay its contraction time."
"The power of the blood web comes from the statues. What if I attack the statues directly!"
Su Fengze was very smart; he also had his own ideas.
Previously, when the warship attacked, the statues had sustained damage, which meant the statues were not indestructible.
He immediately attempted to attack the statues, but red light flashed on them, directly repelling his attack.
After a few attempts, he knew that the statues had already become integrated with the blood web.
Unless one possessed the power to shatter the blood web, it was impossible to cause damage to the statues.
Su Fengze changed his mind and immediately joined the ranks of Yan Bei and the Five Elements Sword Demon, beginning to attack the blood web.
No matter how effective it was, delaying it for a moment was good; at least it could buy time for Lin Moyu.
While Lin Moyu was setting up the formation, he also saw Su Fengze's actions.
A smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of his mouth. "The Celestial Fox Clan is indeed the smartest clan among the demon race. They understand advancement and retreat, know how to judge the situation, and combined with their sincerity, they are truly worth befriending!"
Finally, the Space-Splitting Killing Formation was completed.
Lin Moyu immediately recalled all the Dragon Cavalry Legion and Elemental Liches, leaving only Yan Bei, while simultaneously sending a voice transmission to Su Fengze, "Fellow Daoist Su, please stop; I am about to begin!"
Upon hearing Lin Moyu's voice transmission, Su Fengze stopped immediately and returned to Lin Moyu's side. At this moment, a great formation had completely taken shape beside Lin Moyu.
This time, in order to speed up the formation setup, Lin Moyu did not hide the formation but revealed it directly.
Su Fengze could feel that this formation was very strong, but exactly how strong it was or what kind of formation it was, he was not very clear.
Su Fengze asked cautiously, "Fellow Daoist Lin, what kind of formation is this?"
Lin Moyu did not hide it. "The Space-Splitting Killing Formation."
Su Fengze searched his memory for information about the Space-Splitting Killing Formation and was suddenly shocked. "If I remember correctly, this should be a 7th-tier spatial formation, right?"
Lin Moyu nodded. He surged his soul power and had already begun to activate the formation.
Each origin crystal flashed with light, channeling vast energy along the paths Lin Moyu had laid out.
Su Fengze felt the vibration of space, having a suffocating illusion. "This is a top-tier 7th-tier formation, and it's a fusion of artifact and talisman formations. The power of this formation is probably already comparable to some 8th-tier formations."
Su Fengze's eyes were full of amazement; the Space-Splitting Killing Formation was displayed before him like a beautiful work of art.
Suddenly, Su Fengze thought of something. It had been written in a document that the most difficult point of the Space-Splitting Killing Formation was that one had to understand the Great Dao of Space; otherwise, it could not be formed.
This was a hard requirement that could not be bypassed in any way.
Lin Moyu could set up the Space-Splitting Killing Formation, which meant that Lin Moyu understood the Great Dao of Space.
This was another shock, but having been shocked too many times before, Su Fengze felt somewhat numb.
In his feeling, it seemed a matter of course that Lin Moyu mastered the Great Dao of Space.
Lin Moyu activated the Space-Splitting Killing Formation and pointed his finger forward.
The Space-Splitting Killing Formation shook violently, and the space in front of the formation shattered. An attack slashed out silently along the shattered space, instantly slamming onto the blood web.
A bulge appeared on the blood web, and this bulge was not much different from Yan Bei's impact.
Su Fengze had personally experienced the toughness of the blood web; this level of attack was not enough to shatter it.
"If only the power of the formation could be a little stronger!" Su Fengze sighed inwardly, feeling it was a pity.
Lin Moyu's mouth curled slightly, and there was no hint of frustration in his eyes.
He was the master of the formation and knew the formation he had set up better than anyone.
That strike just now was merely a probe and naturally was not the full power of the formation.
The next moment, the formation burst into strong light, and a large area of space shattered.
The shattered space spread directly from in front of the formation to the blood web, forming a chaotic void between the formation and the blood web.
Hundreds of spatial attacks landed on the blood web along the chaotic void.
The blood web instantly withstood attacks hundreds of times stronger than before, countless bulges appeared, and the entire blood web was vibrating violently.
The foundation of the blood web was the statues on the island. Facing such stormy attacks, one statue shattered on the spot.
Su Fengze's eyes lit up. "It's working!"
Lin Moyu's tone was relaxed. "It should be fine."
At this moment, Su Fengze seemed to have become Lin Moyu's little fanboy and did not doubt Lin Moyu's words at all. "Fellow Daoist Lin, Fengze has a question; may I ask?"
Lin Moyu said, "You may."
Su Fengze asked, "As far as Fengze knows, general formations are inward-facing. How can Fellow Daoist Lin make the formation outward-facing?"
Lin Moyu said, "This is simple; you just need to make some modifications to the formation. If Fellow Daoist Su has time in the future, you can study formations. With Fellow Daoist Su's intelligence, it will be easy to master."
Su Fengze said, "Actually, Fengze is also quite interested in formations, but there are no excellent formation masters among our demon race. Relying solely on studying materials by myself makes it too difficult."
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "If Fellow Daoist Su really wants to learn formations, you can come to the Eastern Continent in the future. In Lin's faction, there are a few decent formation masters who can provide enlightenment for Fellow Daoist Su."
Su Fengze's face showed joy. "That would be great."
Lin Moyu smiled. "When you arrive at the Eastern Continent, you can go to the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce. Through them, Fellow Daoist Su will be able to find where Lin's faction is located."
Su Fengze firmly noted it down. "Good, I will definitely go."
Under the continuous attacks of the Space-Splitting Killing Formation, statues collapsed one after another.
In just a few minutes, half of the hundreds of statues had already collapsed.
When the statues collapsed, they would inject all their power into the blood web, so the blood web did not weaken because of this.
However, Lin Moyu had already noticed that the power of the blood web was being rapidly consumed under his continuous attacks.
Once all the statues collapsed and the blood web lost its source of power, it would naturally be shattered.
The statues kept collapsing, and their number became fewer and fewer.
Soon, only fifty statues remained, only one-tenth of the original number.
Su Fengze's eyes were full of joy; he felt this was a sure win.
Following Lin Moyu really meant having meat to eat. If it had been himself, his life and death in this mission would truly have been unpredictable.
Suddenly, Lin Moyu turned his head and looked towards the distance of the Beilin Sea.
Su Fengze asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Lin, what happened?"
Lin Moyu whispered, "Reinforcements have arrived. It seems I need to speed up!"
As the words fell, Lin Moyu injected a large amount of soul power into the formation, and the Space-Splitting Killing Formation became even more violent.
The power of the formation greatly increased, the attacks received by the blood web increased significantly, and the collapse speed of the statues also accelerated by a lot.
The entire formation was vibrating and trembling. Lin Moyu was overloading the formation, unlimitedly increasing its power, and the energy in the origin crystals was being consumed significantly.
If this continued, it would not take long for the power in the origin crystals to be completely consumed.
Under normal circumstances, doing this would be more trouble than it was worth.
Overdrawing the formation like this might only increase the formation's power by twenty percent, but the formation's duration would be shortened by half.
However, Lin Moyu didn't care now; as long as the blood web was shattered, the formation would lose its purpose anyway.
Su Fengze was somewhat puzzled. "Isn't it a good thing that reinforcements have arrived?"
Lin Moyu said, "It is indeed a good thing; once they arrive, the mission will be completed. However, I want to shatter the blood web before they arrive."
Su Fengze immediately understood Lin Moyu's idea. Lin Moyu wanted to over-fulfill the mission, which was why he had to do this.
In other words, he wanted to take all the credit.
Su Fengze greatly admired Lin Moyu's meticulousness and boldness, but he also knew that to be like Lin Moyu, being meticulous and bold was not enough; it also required the support of powerful strength.
