The old woman walked step by step into the corridor of life she had carved out for herself.
This corridor, formed by the hurricane, could block external sensing. The golden dark cloud in the sky would be unable to track her. Moreover, this direction was the life gate of the formation, the weakest point within it. On one hand, it was the corridor formed by her own powerful strength, and on the other, it was the weakest point of the formation. With both combined, she could safely exit the formation's coverage.
She was confident about this point because her understanding of formations was a level higher than Qin Feng's, and she had absolute confidence in breaking this formation.
However, as soon as she entered the corridor formed by the hurricane, she sensed that the golden dark cloud in the sky was still following her. This greatly surprised her. By all logic, the dark cloud should not have followed her. Her aura should have been completely isolated within the hurricane corridor. The dark cloud in the sky should have dispersed without finding its target. Why was it still following her?
The old woman began to have doubts!
Today, she had encountered many setbacks and witnessed many unbelievable things.
However, this ultimately could not make her doubt herself, because her immense strength gave her an absolute advantage.
Even if she failed to break this formation, she had the ability to escape. It would just be a great waste of her power. She intended to use the most primitive method, brute force to overcome all tricks.
Since this hurricane corridor was useless and could not block the dark cloud's sensing of her, she only needed to increase her speed and charge in one direction. As long as she could escape the formation's coverage, she would be completely safe. Within this formation, the dark cloud's speed was not inferior to hers. However, that dark cloud ultimately had its boundaries and could not endlessly track her. As far as she knew, the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation had a maximum range of a hundred li, and she could fly a hundred li without issue.
Before the power of the golden dark cloud could fully condense, she was already a hundred li away.
With this thought, she leaped up and flew directly into the air, heading towards the distance.
Her goal was to escape the formation's coverage directly. This was the most foolish method, but also the most effective. In fact, this was also a desperate measure for her. For a cultivator, flying in the air consumed a lot of energy. If she flew normally, with the enhancement of magical treasures, it would not significantly affect her strength. But now, she had to use all her strength to fly, thus consuming her power greatly.
She had to escape the formation's coverage before the golden dark cloud's power could fully condense in the sky.
Therefore, she exerted all her strength and secretly vowed that when she captured Qin Feng in the future, she would make him wish he were dead. After tormenting him enough, she would then use her charm techniques to make him submit and reveal all his secrets.
Thus, after an unknown amount of time, the old woman's strength had been depleted by half. She had been flying in the air for some time, and the dark cloud in the sky followed her like a shadow. The old woman felt something was wrong.
The coverage of this formation was too vast. It had consumed half of her strength. She should have been tens of kilometers away by now. By all logic, the formation's coverage should have ended long ago. Even the most powerful formation in this world, the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation, only covered a hundred li.
What was Qin Feng's strength? He was just an unknown person. How could he possess such powerful strength? How could he set up such a vast formation?
As the distance increased, the old woman's heart became exceptionally uneasy. Finally, she stopped and landed on the ground.
She closed her eyes and carefully sensed her surroundings. Then, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the golden dark cloud in the sky. Only then did she realize that the dark cloud's power had not increased. Judging by the time, this golden dark cloud should have reached the verge of eruption, and its energy should have condensed to a very powerful state. However, after traveling such a long distance, the dark cloud in the sky had not changed at all. This was not a characteristic of the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation.
As far as she knew, once the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation was formed, the power in the sky would continuously condense until it was released. There was absolutely no other way to stop the energy from condensing.
"Could this not be the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation?"
With this thought, the old woman broke out in a cold sweat.
A formation that even she didn't know was truly terrifying.
As a cultivator, her understanding of formations was related to her own strength. Only by improving her own strength could she better sense the aura between heaven and earth and the mysteries within formations. If her own strength was weak, she would absolutely not be able to comprehend advanced formations.
If this formation was not the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation, then it could only mean that Qin Feng's strength was one level higher than hers. This meant that she had unknowingly offended a master and put herself in grave danger.
The old woman thought carefully. She felt this was absolutely impossible. If Qin Feng's strength was much higher than hers, there would be no reason for him to set up such a formation to deal with her. He could have confronted her directly and crushed her from the front. There would be no need to set up such a complicated formation.
With this thought, the old woman's eyes suddenly lit up. She thought of a possibility.
She recognized this formation, but it had undergone many changes, making it difficult for her to recognize it at first glance. She thought carefully about what kind of formation could have variations and become more powerful as strength increased.
After much thought, she thought of one called the Nine Profound Formation.
This formation could be learned and comprehended once one reached the Golden Core stage. It was a group formation, a basic formation used by Golden Core stage cultivators to fuse the strength of lower-level disciples in their sect to fight powerful enemies.
This set of formations could become more powerful as the number of participants increased. Whether it was ordinary disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage or ordinary civilians with no strength, they could all participate. As long as these people could follow commands, train quickly, and not make any mistakes when setting up the formation, the more people there were, the greater the power.
When the number of participants exceeded ten thousand, this Nine Profound Formation became another name: the Nine Profound Great Formation!
It was not just the name that changed. This Nine Profound Great Formation was unpredictable and possessed infinite power.
It contained not only the Illusion Great Formation, but also the Isolation Great Formation, the Five Elements Thunder Formation, the Dragon Slaying Great Formation, the Earth Fire Great Formation, and the Unperceived Great Formation.
Golden Core stage cultivators could set up all these formations, but their coverage was very small, and it was impossible to fuse these small formations into one.
However, this Nine Profound Great Formation could fuse them into one and increase the power of each small formation by more than a hundred times.
Its power was unprecedented!
