"Master Jiang, is the Formation ready?!" The voice of the Golden Core cultivator was filled with urgency and unease.
His only Defensive Treasure had already been broken by Yu Qing.
If the opponent launched another killer move, he could only dodge and flee for his life, allowing Yu Qing to escape!
Yu Qing's complexion changed drastically upon hearing this; he hadn't expected the other party to be so well-prepared.
Once the Formation was successfully set up, escaping would become even more difficult.
But before he could make any move, Jiang Tianming had already completed the Formation. Spirit Light of four colors arose, intertwining with each other and finally forming a barrier inverted upon the earth, trapping Yu Qing inside!
The Four Directions Sealing Spirit Array, a very famous trapping Formation within third-level Formations, could sever connections with the outside world and would lead to an ever-diminishing supply of Spiritual Energy inside, until completely drained, leaving the trapped person with no Spiritual Energy to use.
"Attack with all your might, we must kill Yu Qing; if he escapes, the trouble will be endless!" Jiang Tianming said with a cold voice.
Li Shiqing naturally knew the danger of letting Yu Qing escape. This was a Golden Core Sword Cultivator with extraordinary combat prowess, and his cultivation was even higher than his!

If Yu Qing decided to trouble the Li family, they would have no chance to resist.
Of course, the Yuanming Sect wasn't much better off, but they had the third-level Mountain Protection Array to shelter them. Low-level cultivators could hide within the sect gates and not worry about Yu Qing's assassination attempts.
The Li family also wanted to set up a third-level Clan Protection Array, but since they had not yet hired a third-level Array Master, they had to continue using the existing second-level Formation.
Indeed, crucial Formations like the Clan Protection Array are best arranged by someone from within to prevent the Array Master from leaving backdoors.
However, Array Masters are even more rare than Alchemists. Even the Yuanming Sect had not yet cultivated a third-level Array Master, let alone the Li family.
Back when Li Shiqing was learning Cultivation Skills, his only talent was in talisman making, and it had been many years since he last practiced this skill.
But coming back to the matter at hand!
Under such a threat, Li Shiqing and the other three did not conceal their true strength anymore. Each of them exerted their killer moves with all their might, aiming to solve the problem of Yu Qing as quickly as possible, to avoid any accidents that could arise with the delay.
When Golden Core cultivators take action, their power is so great that it can alter the surrounding terrain and environment.
If it weren't for the Formation that confined everyone's attacks within a limited area, who knows how many ruins would appear on Da Rong Island.
Still, even so, the battle affected Da Rong Island, causing the ground within the Formation to split open, and the entire island to tremble slightly, unnoticed by the mortals.
The sound of a Formation breaking echoed.
The faces of Jiang Tianming and the others changed instantly; once the Formation was broken, they would have to face Yu Qing whose combat power had surged!
To stop him, Jiang Tianming and his two companions waved their hands with rapid movements, ignoring the swift depletion of their mana, as hurricanes, heavenly fire, and giant trees, three forms of powerful Divine Power, bombarded towards Yu Qing.
Li Shiqing, however, held back, his usually swift Jiamu Yang Thunder was not cast quickly, but instead deliberately controlled. He secretly brought forth the Profound Origin Umbrella and the Wood Spirit Protecting Heart Bead, carefully guarding against the now desperate Yu Qing.
"Hahahaha, let's die together!" Yu Qing's face was filled with madness as he unleashed four streams of sword energy at the cost of his own life.
The sword light was dazzling, and the murderous aura filled the air; it seemed as if even the space itself were etched with fine lines from the unrestrained sword energy.
As for the Formation, it had already been shattered.
Boom!
The collision of sword energy and Divine Power created a terrifying shockwave, flattening the surroundings and kicking up dust and smoke, obscuring everyone's sight.
And Li Shiqing, who had not launched an attack, could barely withstand this fearsome strike with the two magical treasures; the Profound Origin Umbrella was completely shattered by this hit and could no longer be used.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a scream rang out, sending a chill through Li Shiqing's heart. He quickly brought forth the dim Spirit Light of the protecting heart bead and his hand flickered with light as he layered various defensive spells over himself.
He then retreated explosively, taking cover behind a large banyan tree, vigilantly watching his surroundings.
"You're seeking death!" filled with fury, Jiang Tianming's roar called forth gusting winds that attacked Yu Qing.
The fierce wind dispersed the dust and smoke, allowing Li Shiqing to see clearly. Not far from where the two had been fighting, a newly advanced Golden Core cultivator from the Yuanming Sect lay on the ground, clutching a huge, gory wound on his abdomen.
His face was as pale as gold paper, his breath as thin as a thread; it was clear that he was not long for this world.
A gleam flashed in Li Shiqing's eyes. Taking advantage of the fact no one noticed him, he pretended to be severely injured, leaning against the tree with a pale face.
Just as he wondered where Master Mingling was, he saw him walking over unsteadily from not too far away, looking disheveled and injured as well.
"To think only one was taken care of." Yu Qing's spirit, which had been barely holding on, deflated upon seeing Mingling's arrival.
And in that moment of mental collapse, a green wind blade howled in, severing his head.
Actually, there was no need for Jiang Tianming to act anymore, for Yu Qing, who had exhausted all his blood essence, was now like a mummified corpse long dead.
The only reason he was still moving was because he was being stubbornly propped up by that last bit of unwillingness.
