Chapter 1490: Forming the阵

“Haha, boss, don’t worry. This level of intense confrontation is exactly what I’m looking forward to. I can’t wait to see what kind of surprises these fairy maidens can bring me.”

Long Kun suddenly became exceptionally excited. Just imagining a dozen beautiful fairy maidens attacking him simultaneously was enough to fill him with thrill.

Because of this, the immense star power within him gathered in an extraordinary way at that moment. Brilliant deep blue light completely enveloped Long Kun, and perhaps the term "Lord of Stars" could describe his overwhelmingly powerful posture at this time.

His imposing aura at that moment made the dozen fairy maidens, including Xiaoxiang, who was controlling the entire process, feel nervous.

An immense power rapidly swept down from Xiaoxiang's hand, imbued with an incredibly rich life aura, striking towards Long Kun's star-powered body.

In a flash, the two forces collided. Although Long Kun's body remained unharmed thanks to his vast star power, he still felt the terrifying might of the sword strike.

"It seems the boss's advice was correct. No elemental power, once concentrated to a sufficient degree, fails to unleash world-destroying might. Even this life aura, after forming such a potent edge, can still be deadly. These girls truly shouldn't be underestimated."

The star power shield around Long Kun was completely shattered by the dazzling sword gleam formed from the concentrated life aura. Although his physical body was unharmed, this power was enough to prove that these girls, who practiced the Immortal Saint Method, were beyond ordinary assessment.

"Haha, I've experienced the fairy maidens' strength, and it is indeed extraordinary. However, I don't think we should continue this battle, as we were never meant to be enemies. More importantly, by using such techniques to gather vast amounts of life aura and attack me, it won't be long before the immense power of this life aura spreads, attracting more powerful fierce beasts to gather in the vicinity. That's not an outcome we should wish for."

Long Kun's thoughts echoed those of Xu Yang and the others nearby, but Xiaoxiang showed no immediate sign of stopping her attack.

"Unless you reveal your identities, origins, and true intentions, I will absolutely not give up easily."

Just as Xiaoxiang was preparing to condense a second, even more powerful life-force sword energy, Xu Yang finally shook his head helplessly, and with a gentle wave of his hand, an incredibly potent beam of light shot out instantly.

That was power elevated to the level of fundamental laws, something the dozen young cultivators, including Xiaoxiang, could not withstand. In an instant, the surrounding illusory space that had been formed completely vanished, and the true surroundings reappeared.

In just about an hour, large numbers of brutal fierce beasts had appeared in this localized battlefield within a thousand-mile radius.

"Oh no, Senior Sister, many powerful fierce beasts have appeared. Their estimated strength already exceeds level seven. They seem to be a difficult group to deal with."

Xiaoxiang naturally sensed the restless aura of the fierce beasts. She decisively ceased her attack and immediately ordered her dozen fellow disciples to lead their respective apprentices to form arrays in all directions without delay, to defend against the brutal beasts' invasion. Soon, Xu Yang's team and the group temporarily reconciled.

Their confrontation was temporarily put aside, and everyone began busying themselves with setting up defensive formations.

"Boss, what should we do?"

Xu Yang chuckled, pointing towards Xiaoxiang's location. "Naturally, we'll help them establish barriers. These are brutal fierce beasts. The only way to stop them from slaughtering their kind is annihilation; there's no need for mercy. The only way they accumulate power is by devouring the bloodlines of their own kind. Such malevolent souls should be sent back to the cycle of reincarnation as soon as possible."

Hearing Xu Yang's instruction, Long Kun immediately smiled, as he had long been eager to ally himself with these lovely and beautiful young women.

"Hehe, let me help you set up your formations!"

Long Kun found a localized formation where a dozen young women from the Misty Rain Imperial Family were gathered and personally took action, using his powerful abilities to help these girls gather energy and construct the magical array.

The girls had initially been quite wary of Long Kun, an unknown individual, but once they felt his immense power, they immediately dismissed their reservations. After all, they had gained a powerful ally, and they naturally wouldn't object.

They allowed Long Kun to unleash his cultivation prowess, and soon, hundreds of powerful defensive formations were completed. However, precisely because of this, the vast numbers of ferocious demon beasts outside, who had been eager to attack for a long time, could no longer control themselves in the presence of these formations radiating life aura.

In fact, they had been eyeing these young women from the Misty Rain Imperial Family for a long time, drawn by the rich life aura emanating from them. This was the ideal raw material for them to devour bloodlines and strengthen themselves.

The male fierce beasts regarded these girls as the most exquisite food, and finally launched a large-scale attack. Thousands of terrifying, bloodthirsty demon beasts let out angry roars, furiously lunging towards these brilliantly lit formations.

"Attack with full force and slay the fierce beasts!"

Senior Sister Xiaoxiang personally gave the command, immediately demonstrating the authority and presence of a leader among the younger generation.

Soon, the beautiful female cultivators around them ascended into the air, using their individual powers to activate the formations and resist the onslaught of countless brutal fierce beasts.

Thus, Xu Yang's team officially began their first large-scale operation in the Kunlun Abyss battlefield. Xu Yang and his companions were not in a hurry to act, remaining in an observational state. However, just as Xu Yang had predicted, these fierce beasts had come simply by scent, because the potent life aura emanating from the girls was simply too tempting.

Xiaoxiang naturally led the dozen core disciples who had previously helped her weave the illusion to trap Xu Yang and his companions. They specifically targeted the terrifying fierce beasts that had reached level seven in strength. As the saying goes, to catch a thief, first catch the king; suppressing these high-level fierce beasts was the primary task for their strongest members.

"Boss, the situation seems a bit grim. There are simply too many terrifying fierce beasts in this northeast region. The more intense the battle here, the more potent the life aura emanating from these girls becomes. This, in turn, will naturally attract even more powerful fierce beasts to gather on the battlefield by scent. It's a vicious cycle, and we must find another solution."

Ling Yao's assessment was, of course, the shared thought among Xu Yang and the others, but Xu Yang maintained his composed demeanor.

"No need to rush. We should wait for these girls to explicitly ask for help before we intervene. That way, our actions will be twice as effective with half the effort. If we act rashly now, they won't fully appreciate our indispensable role."
