I Have Infinite Systems In The Immortal World

" Daoist Shi, Why are you obstructing our way?" Lin Xie spoke with a rather calm voice.

" Have you not seen the flare? We must return to the Southern Fortress fast."

" We are also thinking that, Miss Lin." Shi Kuang grinned. " In such a turbulent time, won't it be best if we cooperate? Why not return to the Southern Fortress together?"

" Thanks for your consideration, Daoist Shi. However, Rather than tagging with us, you can certainly follow us behind." Lin Xie shrugged. " After all, Our destination is the Southern Fortress. As for how we reach, it doesn't matter, right?"

' This bitch…' Shi Kuang's expression twitched. However at thar moment, lightning streaked across the sky with an ominous an ominous green aura.

" What's that?"

*BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!"

The ground rumbled violently as they fell around the military settlement.

" Everyone, Gather here!"

A signal flared in the sky, making all the remaining members of the army regroup.

" Everyone! Gather your troops and immediately fall back. Vanguards, try not to engage with that unknown army."

" Commander, Look there!"

Commander Cheng's expression changed as he saw green rays of radiance erupting like pillars of light where the lightning landed.

" Hurry up and escape! Those are Great Formation Pillars!"

Chen Yin's expression changed as she looked at Lin Xie. " Sister Lin, It's not good! We must escape immediately."

Only one in a thousand cultivator can successfully reach the next greater realm. And those cultivators are generally nurtured by cultivation sects and holy lands.

But, for a kingdom or a military clan faction, gathering resources equal to a sect is pretty hard. And considering the number of soldiers in the army, it's very hard for every person in that army to be a high realm cultivator, right?

However, numbers do make up for strength. A single Core Formation Realm cultivator can kill a hundred normal Violet Palace Expansion realms. However, if those hundred normal Violet Palace Expansion realm cultivators use tactics, they can take out five Core Formation Realm cultivators even after suffering casualty.

The thing that fills the gap between their strength is military formation and military techniques.

In warfare, an army is a group of soldiers who use complementing techniques, that greatly amplify the group's strength. Also, the incoming damage also shared by the group of soldiers, making individual injuries less.

The Great Formation Pillars are just like smaller formation flags on a greater scale. It's put on the battlefield to separate a troop from the main army, making them vulnerable to onslaught.

Pillars of green radiance emerged, creating a soft illusory barrier across the encampment. Shi Kuang and his group were first to flee.

" Damn it! Hurry up and get back!"

" Everyone! Activate your teleportation talisman!"

" Brother Shi! It's not good! The teleportation talismans aren't working!"

" What?"

Shi Kuang tried his own teleportation talisman, Which was a Xuan grade talisman. Yet it merely blinked for a few moments before dimming.

" Don't worry, We need just need to get out…"

*BOOM! BOOOOM!*

The sky's color changed as it turned crimson. A giant palm unfolded in the sky, descending towards them. However, the giant palm was a technique, created by culmination of thousand of falling arrows.

" Everyone! Defend!"

" Frost Shield!"

" Turbulent Wind Wave!"

The Four Seasons Valley's disciples gathered together as Lin Xie and Chen Yin took the vanguard, blocking the arrow.

" Soldiers! Scaled Qilin Defense formation! Now!" Commander Cheng shouted. The soldiers gathered in sync, raising their shields. " Shield! Shield!"

Scales appeared over the large army as they chanted. The burning palm fell like a crushing force, making the earth rumble. However, the Scaled Qilin Troop handled the attack.

" Fall back to the Southern Fortress while maintaining the formation!"

As the army marched, All the sect disciples also joined them. After all, it's safer to stick together.

But the next moment, their expression turned ugly.

" Commander! We have been tricked! The black army has surrounded us from all directions!" The scout returned with devastating news.

Commander Cheng gritted his teeth as he shouted. " No worries! We will cut through them! Charge forward!"

*Half an hour later*

" Bastards! What kind of army is that?"

" Their number is small, but they are too well coordinated!"

The enemy army had two parts focusing on defense and one part attacking the Steel Qilin Troop. The Steel Qilin Troop couldn't breach the defensive part of the opponent. So they only had the option to fight the attacking unit head on.

" Blooming of Northen Flower!"

Lin Xie rose to the sky as her sword shone with an icy radiance. Frozen swords bloomed across the sky like a flower, shotting down and impaling the enemy soldiers to death.

" Everyone, Stay together and carve a way out." Chen Yin shouted. " Weaker disciples, stay near us. Don't get separated."

" No need to care about the army. We need to act our own way."

Chu Li suddenly noticed something as her flaming saber beheaded a soldier.

" Sister Lin, Don't you feel something amiss?"

" What?" " Our True Qi! Isn't it depleting too rapidly?"

Chen Yin and other noticed that when Chu Li pointed out. Suddenly, they felt a thin black miasma covering the entire battlefield, slowly eroding their strength.

" Damn it! It's some sort of army formation! We can't have a sustained fight here!" Chen Yin cursed as her sword turned into a ragin tempest.

" Get off!"

*BOOOOM!!*

The wind blew away the group of soldiers, revealing a path for them. But before they could move, Shi Kuang roared as he charged forward.

" Brothers! This way!" Shi Kuang threw an orb in the air, exploding with an oppressive aura. The oppressive aura fell on Four Seasons Valley disciples, making their movement sluggish.

" Sisters, Please hold them off for us." Shi Kuang laughed loudly. " Me and my brothers shall go and bring reinforcements!"

" Shi Kuang! You bastards!" Chen Yin cursed as the soldiers swarmed towards them. The orb not only obstructed their movements, It also revealed t heir position, making even more enemies attracted to them.

" Hmph! No one is going to leave this ridge alive!"

A powerful pressure wave appeared as a black masked person descended. His sword glowed with the stains of the soldiers he slaughtered.

" Chen Yin, That person…He is a mid stage Harmonization Realm expert."

Chen Yin greeted her teeth when she heard that. " Sisters, Get into the formation. Do not get distracted!"

" What? A mid stage Harmonization Realm cultivator?"

" How are we going to defeat him?"

After all, Even Chen Yin and Lin Xie had strength of Half step Harmonization Realm strength.

" Do not panic. Just because his cultivation is high doesn't mean we should be afraid." Lin Xie brandished her sword at the opponent.

" Hah, Four Seasons Valley disciples?" The person snorted. " Guess it's my lucky day. I will clean some annoying pests."

His sword suddenly turned into a giant aura blade, slashing towards the disciples of Four Seasons Valley.

" Frozen Shield!" Lin Xie took a defensive stance as she took the attack head on.

Suddenly, the water rippled around her, strengthening her technique. After all, Water complements the ice.

" Sister Lin, Let me help you!" Chu Li shouted as she actived her River Carp Noble Physique. *BOOOOM!*

The ice crystal shield shattered instantly as Lin Xie and Chu Li got pushed back. However, they sustained minor injuries.

" Sister Lin!"

" Hoh? To think you endured my hit." The man expressed mild surprise. " However, It ends here."

" Traceless Sword Ray!"

" Sister Lin!"

" Everyone! Get together!"

Chen Yin shouted as she threw a jade slip in the mid air. The moment the man clenched his sword, the jade slip was split apart,

Suddenly, a jade colored dome appeared around them, protecting them from the attack.

" A Noble grade Jade Shield Talisman?" The man's expression flinched when he saw that. " To think you are hiding such precious treasure."

" Too bad, It won't protect you for long!"

The soldiers gathered around them as their battle intent soared, turning into a giant sword. *BOOM! BOOM!"

The sword kept stabbing the jade shield repeatedly, making small cracks appear.

" Damn it! I have already sent the distress signal." Lin Xie clenched her teeth.

" Sisters, We need to endure! Just wait a bit!"

" Steel General Gu is dead! March forward!"

" Capture the Southern Fortress and avenge Young Master Shang!" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The army of Pale Moon Kingdom marched with enthusiasm as t hey faced little to no resistance in the midway. Their target was set on Southern Fortress.

" City Lord Dong, Congratulations! Your method worked successfully!"

Lord Dong grinned. " Don't be so hasty. We need to ccapture the Southern Fortress first. Even if we can't, we need to deal significant damage to it and siege it."

However, at that moment, a scout hurriedly returned to them.

" Lord Dong! Not good! Steel Qilin Army is approaching from the left side!"

" Lord Dong! The army is also approaching from right side! We have been surrounded."

Lord Dong's face hardened. But he still waved his hands. " Without that old bastard, I can take on the Steel Qilin Army."

" General Lu, Don't disappoint me!"

" Yes, Lord Dong."

However, Lord Dong felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

' Why am I worrying? Grand General Gu is dead with Young Master Sheng. Everything is under our control, right?'

" Bastards of Pale Moon Kingdom! Come and accept your death!"

A violent cry shook the heaven and earth, striking fear in the heart of Pale Moon Kingdom's soldiers.

" Grand General Gu?!"
