Chapter 244 Primordial Spirit Locking Array
Upon hearing Bai Ke's words, everyone present felt an overwhelming sense of worry.
Their admiration for Bai Ke was one thing, but swords don't discriminate. If one of them made a mistake and injured this powerful and favored young man, it would be a different story. The title of the Supreme Elder of Tian Ce Palace was not to be trifled with.
The straightforward Da Chuan didn't have so many thoughts; he was simply concerned about Senior Brother Bai. He immediately advised, "Senior Brother Bai, you absolutely mustn't! Not only is the power of this formation unknown, but this is also our first time working together. What if Senior Brother Bai gets hurt?"
Upon hearing Bai Ke's intention to personally test the power of the formation, Su Ziyuan couldn't help but look at him with newfound respect. In the Heavenly Domain, a noble scion like Bai Ke, born into a prominent family, could easily rely on his status to roam the world, but Bai Ke chose to prove himself through his own strength.
Bai Ke's favorability towards Su Ziyuan has skyrocketed, but Su Ziyuan's expression remains completely unchanged.
She wasn't the type to be so infatuated that she would shout it out loud if she liked someone, but her clear almond-shaped eyes still couldn't help but glance at Bai Ke from time to time.
Looking at Bai Ke, he appeared completely at ease, as if he didn't care about the unknown power of the formation at all. In reality, he was muttering to himself about the system notification he had just received.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the important task - gaining Su Ziyuan's favor. This system will reward you with 100 evil points."
Gaining Su Ziyuan's favor is too easy! This girl might have her eye on me; it seems my charm hasn't diminished at all.
Bai Ke felt a surge of smug satisfaction. Should he use his superb skills as a Casanova to max out her favorability first? But then he thought again, a man should prioritize his career. The most urgent matter is the election of the Holy Son.
If I successfully become the Holy Son and seize the so-called destined opportunity of the protagonist Ling Feng, the system will definitely give me a lot of evil points. And once I become the Holy Son, dealing with a girl will be a piece of cake, right?
The many twists and turns that flashed through Bai Ke's mind actually only took a few seconds.
Soon, Bai Ke, having figured things out, said to Da Chuan and the others, "Junior brothers, please rest assured, I have already considered the things you are worried about. If all of you work together to set up this Hunyuan Locking Spirit Array, it can at most restrict the cultivation of someone at one major stage."
In other words, if you disciples with an average cultivation level of around the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm were to unite and form an array, you could at most restrict cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core realm and a small number of cultivators at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
My cultivation has already reached the Nascent Soul Realm, so this formation cannot harm me for the time being. My fellow disciples can practice without worry.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt much relieved. Some even thought to themselves, "This Senior Brother Bai Ke is the son of the Supreme Elder of Tian Ce Palace, and he is exceptionally talented. He has already broken through to the Yuan Shen Realm at such a young age. Even if we join forces, we will definitely not be injured."
"Besides, if the formation goes out of control, as a chosen one of heaven, he must have many ways to protect himself. So when my senior brother says it's alright, it must mean he's fine."
Only Da Chuan, after listening to Bai Ke's analysis, still looked at him with a worried expression.
However, seeing Bai Ke's resolute and nonchalant demeanor, Da Chuanzai was worried and didn't say much, so he could only agree with everyone else.
But Da Chuan secretly resolved that he must pay more attention when setting up the formation. Although his cultivation level was not as high as that of Senior Brother Bai, he still had to do his best to help Senior Brother Bai.
With the sparring partners decided, the next step is to study the formation.
Bai Ke took out a jade plate. The jade plate was milky white all over, with a uniform color and no impurities. It even shone brightly in the sunlight, and it was clear that it was of high quality.
Meanwhile, the more knowledgeable underlings immediately recognized it as an Earth-rank formation, and were inevitably shocked.
It's important to know that the array formations circulating in the world are divided into four levels: Profound Rank, Earth Rank, Heaven Rank, and Human Rank. The array formations of even higher worlds are already legendary, unseen and unheard of by most.
These four levels of formations are further divided into low, medium, and high stages. After that great upheaval, there are very few remaining Xuan-level formations, let alone Di-level ones. Even the Tian Ce Palace's library only has a few Xuan-level formation books, and it's stipulated that only elders can borrow them.
Even the Supreme Elders probably don't possess many high-level formations like the Earth-rank formation. He couldn't help but feel even more admiration for Bai Ke, and his resolve to follow him strengthened.
Several underlings who were interested in formations couldn't contain their excitement, each rubbing their hands together, eager to see the true face of the Earth-rank formation.
Bai Ke led everyone to see that the Hunyuan Locking Spirit Formation was actually a circular formation. When setting up the formation, nine people in the formation needed to form a circle, and another person skilled in attack was selected to be placed in the center of the formation, with layers of troops deployed around the perimeter.
This formation is most useful when fighting against high-level opponents, and what's even better is that this formation can transfer damage between opponents.
In other words, attacking any one person within the Hunyuan Locking Spirit Array is almost equivalent to attacking ten people simultaneously. Therefore, by transferring and spreading the damage among them, the damage is minimal.
Imagine this: in the midst of battle, the enemy unleashes a desperate, life-saving attack at the last moment, intending to finish you off in one strike. However, the damage is minimal, and the enemy's spiritual energy is nearly depleted, while the opponents only suffer minor injuries and have barely lost any spiritual energy.
In situations where the difference in spiritual power is so vast, even if the opponent is a Great Immortal, it's useless. It's practically the ultimate weapon for defeating enemies of a higher level.
However, every advantage has its disadvantage. As Lao Tzu once said, "Good fortune is the foundation of misfortune, and misfortune follows good fortune."
Bai Ke thought to himself, "In my past life, I was a complete shut-in, spending all my time on various websites. All I remember is this quote from Lao Tzu. Speaking of which, I wonder if Lao Tzu even exists in this world. If not, I could at least use his words to impress others."
The advantages of this Primordial Spirit Locking Array are outstanding, but its disadvantages are also undeniable.
The Hunyuan Locking Spirit Formation is a circular formation with densely packed troops, providing strong defense. However, this dense formation also limits the possibility of mobile warfare, resulting in a lack of tactical variation. It is also difficult to pursue retreating enemy forces, making it less effective offensively. If the enemy happens to be skilled at escaping on foot, it can be quite formidable.
Imagine, what if that person isn't a decent person and runs away when they can't win? This formation isn't easy to move, so all we'll be left with is a bunch of people lamenting our inability to reach them and cursing under their breath. Bai Ke thought to himself.
