Shen Lin raised his left hand, blocking the claw.

Although it didn't take much effort, he couldn't help but frown.

Just five sculptures, with their connected auras, could unleash power comparable to the Hunyuan Realm...

Scanning the other sculptures rushing towards him, a thought couldn't help but emerge in Shen Lin's mind.

If they were all to converge...

There were hundreds of these sculptures, and if all their auras were connected, they might even be able to unleash the power of the Dharma Idol Realm.

Understanding this, Shen Lin stomped his foot down, and cracks immediately appeared on the gray-white ground.

Using the force of the impact, his Heavenly Demon Body charged straight towards the tiger-shaped sculpture, raising his fist and smashing it down fiercely.

Li Zhiqin looked at the floor broken by Shen Lin's foot, and couldn't help but feel a surge of luck.

These gray-white stone bricks looked ordinary, but they were made from special rocks that the Li family had gone to great lengths to collect from all over the Great Wei.

They were incredibly hard, and even a Dharma Idol Realm martial artist would have to expend some effort to destroy them.

The reason for choosing this material was because the spiritual energy of the previous Hundred Soldiers Trapping and Killing Formation relied on the ground to transmit it.

Naturally, they couldn't allow the ground to be easily destroyed.

Fortunately, not long ago, Li Zhiqin's mastery of formations had made a breakthrough, and he had comprehended the method of connecting auras.

Otherwise, Shen Lin's casual stomp would have destroyed the ground, and this Hundred Soldiers Trapping and Killing Formation would have become a joke.

But...

Li Zhiqin raised his head, looked at Shen Lin's back, and a trace of thought appeared in his eyes.

Was this guy just unintentionally damaging the ground?

Or did he see something?

Boom!!!

A loud noise interrupted Li Zhiqin's thoughts.

A punch that gathered the powerful physical strength of the Heavenly Demon Body slammed fiercely into the tiger-shaped sculpture.

Logically speaking, such a powerful blow should have easily shattered the stone sculpture in front of him.

But at this moment, Shen Lin looked at the transparent barrier that suddenly appeared on the tiger-shaped stone sculpture and couldn't help but curse.

"It's useless."

Li Zhiqin's mocking voice came from behind him, seemingly very satisfied with Shen Lin's discomfiture, saying: "Did you think that when I set up the formation, I didn't consider the possibility that these stone sculptures would be defeated one by one?"

That amazingly protective barrier wasn't just limited to Li Zhiqin's position.

With the help of aura circulation, it could appear on any sculpture at any time.

Shen Lin took two steps back, dodged the stone sculpture's counterattack, and then punched out again.

Boom!

The barrier appeared again, shaking slightly as it blocked Shen Lin's punch.

Li Zhiqin stroked his beard and laughed: "Hahaha, it's useless! You..."

But before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a darkness in front of his eyes.

Shen Lin's dark and sturdy body had appeared in front of him at some point, and a whip kick swept across.

The moment the barrier appeared on the stone sculpture, the barrier on Li Zhiqin's side disappeared.

At the same time, this extremely protective barrier could only appear in one place.

Having understood this, Shen Lin had already arrived in front of Li Zhiqin at the fastest speed after punching the stone sculpture.

However, facing the whip kick that was enough to break his waist, the smile on Li Zhiqin's face didn't diminish at all.

Boom!

In the next moment, the familiar barrier appeared again, blocking Shen Lin's whip kick.

Seeing him withdraw with a gloomy expression, Li Zhiqin smiled and said: "The energy transfer of the barrier is guided by the flow of aura, even if your physical speed is fast, can you keep up with the speed of aura circulation?"

Shen Lin didn't refute, because what the other party said made sense.

The so-called aura circulation in Li Zhiqin's mouth was actually the flow of Dao principles.

Shen Lin could see it clearly.

He didn't know if this guy had figured it out himself, or if he had obtained an inheritance from the outside world.

He had actually comprehended a method of application that was considered profound even among formation techniques.

Transferring spiritual energy through the resonance of Dao principles.

The Spirit Seeking and Gold Searching Formation left behind by Shaguo Wang had explanations of this method.

The operation of a formation ultimately requires the driving force of spiritual energy.

And how to circulate spiritual energy to every corner of the formation is a very deep knowledge.

Some formations use various mediums to transmit it.

From fine lines made of special materials to mountains, rivers, and undercurrents at the bottom of the sea.

And some formations use the fluctuation of Dao principles to transmit energy.

There is actually no practical distinction between these two, only the most suitable application scenarios.

But the latter method still requires some talent for formations.

Moreover, using the fluctuation of Dao principles to transfer energy has a speed that is almost instantaneous within a certain range.

It only requires very little energy to achieve the effect of having equal protective capabilities throughout the formation.

No matter how confident Shen Lin was in the speed of his Heavenly Demon Body, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to think that his speed could keep up with the circulation of Dao principles.

That could almost be regarded as the speed of light.

But even understanding this, Shen Lin still didn't feel discouraged.

Turning around and stepping out, he charged towards a group of stone sculptures further away.

It looked like he still wanted to try.

"Hmph, foolish behavior."

Li Zhiqin shook his head and casually raised his hand to sweep away the dust in front of him.

As Shen Lin rushed out, he left another large pit in the ground.

He could only vent his anger on the ground.

Li Zhiqin thought somewhat disdainfully, and raised his head to look at the other side.

At this moment, Shen Lin had already rushed to the outermost periphery and collided with the soldier sculptures guarding the edge of the stone platform.

There were fifteen soldier sculptures in this vicinity, and as Shen Lin rushed over, rays of light had already connected them together.

The soldier sculpture that Shen Lin was facing directly raised the long sword in his hand and slashed down fiercely.

The long sword made bursts of tearing sounds and collided with Shen Lin, emitting the aura of the peak of the Hunyuan Realm.

But at the moment of the collision, it was directly smashed open by Shen Lin's punch, and then he took advantage of the momentum to hit the cold stone face of the soldier sculpture.

Boom!

Without any surprises, a transparent barrier appeared again, blocking Shen Lin's punch.

Almost at the same time, Shen Lin suddenly stomped his feet, cracking the ground.

Here again?

Li Zhiqin sneered, and with a thought, he was already prepared to use the barrier to protect himself.

But this time, Shen Lin's choice was not to attack him.

Instead, he directly bypassed the soldier sculpture and rushed outside.

He wanted to rush out of the formation???

Li Zhiqin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a smile appeared on his face, and he waited expectantly for everything that was about to happen.

In the distance, just as Shen Lin was about to rush out of the formation, he suddenly noticed that the air in front of him was slightly distorted.

He maintained his forward rushing posture, as if a drop of water had merged into the water surface, and disappeared at the boundary.

In the next moment, his figure appeared in the center of the formation, directly above Li Zhiqin.

Staggering slightly, Shen Lin had just stabilized his body in the air when he heard Li Zhiqin's mocking laughter from below.

"Is the dignified number one genius of the younger generation of Great Wei actually preparing to run away with his tail between his legs?"

Li Zhiqin had invested so much in this formation that it could almost be said to have condensed all his efforts.

If the person who fell into the formation could escape when the situation was not good, wouldn't the hard work he had spent be in vain?

But Shen Lin seemed not to have heard his words, and rushed out again.

This time, he changed direction.

Along the way, he knocked over several blocking sculptures, like a mad wild boar, leaving footprints all over the ground, and rushed out of the formation.

Then, he returned to the center of the formation again.

Next, Shen Lin seemed like a tireless machine, constantly trying to rush in all directions.

Li Zhiqin, who had originally been watching the show with a mocking face, was now somewhat numb.

Watching the other party crack the ground again and rush into the sculpture group, Li Zhiqin couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart.

A brainless thing.

Originally, he thought that even if Shen Lin's secret was powerful, he should at least be a clever person to have cultivated to his current realm.

But he didn't expect that he only knew how to charge straight, wanting to use his strength to break out a path.

The surrounding ground was a mess, full of pits and bumps.

Li Zhiqin simply sat cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes, and waited.

Shen Lin wouldn't be able to jump around for long.

The time it took for him to return to the center and rush to the edge of the formation again was gradually increasing.

Because those sculptures had slowly surrounded him.

At this moment, with their auras connected, they could already unleash the strength of the Dharma Idol Realm.

After about a quarter of an hour, a loud muffled sound came, causing Li Zhiqin to smile slightly and open his eyes.

Boom!

Shen Lin's body stopped in place, maintaining the action of throwing a punch, and did not rush out as before.

This time, there was no transparent barrier on the sculpture in front of him.

Relying only on its own strength, it blocked Shen Lin's punch.

Dense spiritual energy gathered on this soldier, as if he had put on a layer of brilliantly shining armor.

Shen Lin couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to realize that the other positions in the formation were almost empty.

All the sculptures had gathered here at some point, and the connection of auras between each other had gathered all their strength together.

Seeing this scene, Li Zhiqin couldn't help but nod with a chuckle.

The formation had reached the final stage.

The auras between these sculptures were completely connected, enough to unleash the strength of the late Dharma Idol Realm.

At this moment, even if Yuwen Feng came, he might not necessarily be able to defeat those sculptures.

Buzz!

The long sword in the hands of the soldier sculpture trembled slightly before being swung out.

Shen Lin crossed his hands in front of him, blocking this strike.

However, his body was still sent flying, landing on the ground and staggering back several steps. Finally, he stomped hard, leaving a large pit in the ground before steadying himself.

"The formation is complete! I see no need for you to struggle any longer!"

Li Zhiqin slowly stood up, his gaze towards Shen Lin indifferent and merciless.

"Indeed."

Shen Lin shook his slightly sore arms and slowly turned his head.

His body flickered, and the Celestial Demon Body disappeared, reverting to his original form.

Facing the current group of sculptures, he abandoned the power of the Dharma Aspect Realm's Celestial Demon Body and instead revealed his Mixed Origin Realm's original form.

In Li Zhiqin's view, this was Shen Lin's way of giving up the struggle.

However, the next moment, he discovered that there was not the slightest hint of dejection on Shen Lin's face.

Instead, the corner of his mouth slightly curved, and he slowly raised his right hand.

"The formation... is complete!"
