1069 The Nine Peaks Formation (1/2)

A malicious look flashed in the eyes of the six other disciples when they heard Han Kongqun's whisper.

There were different types of formations, each having its own clever functions, and could be roughly categorized into illusive formations, trapping formations, and killing formations. The main function of an illusive formation was to confuse the target's five senses; its lethality was relatively weak, and it was usually used to stop the enemy from advancing. The lethality of a trapping formation was greater than an illusive formation, but its main function was to trap the enemy, and it was withdrawn once the enemy was defeated most of the time. It was also the type of formation commonly used by Han Kongqun and his fellow disciples.

The third type—killing formations—pushed the art of formation to its extreme, and their only function was to slaughter.

Even though the battle of the Celestial Luck Banner had the magical power to resurrect the dead, when anyone suddenly experienced death, the blow to his mind and heart was by no means easy to overcome. Many people's hearts would be flawed because of such a blow, which would make their path of cultivation ahead bumpier.

The side effect was especially obvious in the younger disciples. No matter how gifted, the mind and heart of young people were inevitably much weaker than those of adults, and many of them would die halfway through their cultivation.

Therefore, if it were not necessary, the disciples of Thousand Mountains Sect, who was famous for their formations, rarely used a killing formation to avoid a failure to stop and bring themselves a great enemy for no reason.

So, when Han Kongqun told his fellow disciples to deploy a killing formation, it meant that he wanted to completely destroy the future of the younger disciples from Residence of Nine Supremes.

At that moment, Yun Xiuxin shouted from across him, ”Nine Peaks Formation!”

The moment the nine disciples of Residence of Nine Supremes landed, they quickly split up and each stood in a different direction. Their formation was clearly very different from the standard ones. Sun Mingxiu was in the center while the other eight formed a circle around him, with Yun Xiuxin facing the opponent's Seven Stars Formation. There was a disciple between Bai Yexing and Yun Xiuxin, and another one between Hu Xiaofan and Bai Yexing.

If one just looked at the three disciples, they formed a triangle shape.

Unlike Han Kongqun, who whispered to his fellow disciples, Yun Xiuxin shouted her command in a voice that was loud and full of killing intent, ”Killing formation!”

”We are invincible! Kill all enemies!”

”Understood!”

Her eight junior brothers and sisters thundered in unison. Opposite to them, the faces of the seven top disciples darkened.

'While we have to make the battle plan in secret, they shouted out their intention for all to hear! How arrogant!'

Fuming, Han Kongqun pointed his sword forward and said, ”Kill us all? How ignorant! We'll see who will be wiped out later!”

Almost at the same time, Yun Xiuxin pointed her fair little hand out as if she was too impatient to wait and roared, ”Attack!”

The next moment, two formations crashed into one another. It was also at this moment that Sun Mingxiu, who took the center position, suddenly cried out, ”The sword of the same breath and branches!”

Before his voice had died away, he extended his hands to either side. Meanwhile, Bai Yexing and Hu Xiaofan each grabbed one of his hands and placed the empty hand on the shoulder of the fellow disciple next to them while Cheng Jiajia rested one hand on Yun Xiuxin's shoulder.

Yun Xiuxin roared, yet her body did not move as she struck out her sword.
