This Five Symbols Dragon Locking Formation was obtained by Wang Yan from the Cosmic Broken Star Map. It was a defensive formation.
It only had a bit of killing power, but its power lay in the word "trap".
If a Star Refining Realm cultivator laid this formation, it could block the attack of a peak Star Refining Realm cultivator. Even experts above the Star Refining Realm would not be able to break it.
In short, the higher the cultivation level, the more powerful the formation would be.
However, there was a condition for laying this formation. It had to be a land of the five elements.
The so-called land of the five elements meant that within a radius of three miles, there must be something of the five elements – metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Moreover, it also needed a Star Guiding Stone as the eye of the formation to complete the most basic formation.
The conditions seemed simple, but they were actually extremely harsh.
Thus, after obtaining this formation, Wang Yan did not study it carefully, only glancing at it briefly.
He did not expect that he would have to rely on this formation to escape.
The mountains were metal, the trees were wood, and the earth was earth. Three of the five elements were already there.
In addition, there was a small stream flowing through the Dense Fog Forest three miles southeast. Four of the five elements were already there. Only the last one was missing – fire!
Although there was no fire here, the surrounding forest was dense, so he only needed to light the trees.
With a thought, a tattered book that gave off an ancient aura appeared in Wang Yan's hand. He quickly flipped through it, looking forward from time to time, holding his breath as he listened.
The tremors on the ground became more frequent, and many pebbles jumped.
"Big Brother, what are you looking at?"
At this moment, a weak voice came from behind.
Immediately after, a fragrant wind entered Wang Yan's nostrils. Wang Xian 'er leaned forward.
Hearing this, Wang Yan turned around and smiled bitterly. "I'm looking at Million!
Tell me, has Xian 'er been shaken awake? "
Wang Xian 'er clearly did not expect Wang Yan to say such a thing.
She was slightly startled for a moment, and her delicate face showed doubt. She shook her head in confusion.
Seeing this, Wang Yan told her about the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Formation and his thoughts without holding back.
Unexpectedly, when Wang Xian'er heard this, she looked worriedly at the front that was once again covered by the thick fog. "Brother, is it okay to sharpen your spear at the last minute?"
"Even if that's the case, sharpening your spear at the last moment … it's not bright, but it's still bright."
After saying that, Wang Yan buried his head and continued watching. "Xian 'er, don't worry. Big Brother's comprehension ability is not bad."
Seeing that there was no response, Wang Yan smiled bitterly, "Half an incense stick of time, I only need half an incense stick of time!"
After saying that, Wang Yan did not say anything else. His fingers flipped the pages of the book faster and faster.
Wang Xian'er stood to the side, even though she also believed that Wang Yan would eventually comprehend the essence of the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array and even set it up.
But could all this be completed before the arrival of the Beast Tide?
Wang Xian 'er looked worried as she stared at his chiseled face.
From what Wang Yan had said just now, this Five Symbols Dragon Locking Formation was a high-level formation. It was very complicated, how could it be comprehended in a short period of time?
But Wang Yan had said it so confidently, and he was not someone who could speak eloquently.
Could it be that he could really comprehend a high-level formation and set it up in half an incense stick of time?
Thinking of this, Wang Xian'er's heart beat fiercely for no reason.
If that was really the case, then how monstrous was Wang Yan's martial arts aptitude and talent?
Time flowed like water, half an incense stick of time passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Wang Xian'er's worried gaze, Wang Yan finally raised his head. With a flip of his palm, he put away the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Formation.
"Xian'er, has half an incense stick of time passed?"
Hearing this, Wang Xian'er shook her head, "Just right, Big Brother, you..."
Suddenly, Wang Xian'er's expression changed, and she looked forward.
Like water, the thick fog was flowing in all directions.
Like a pool of spring water being blown by a strong wind, it was dispersing without any pattern.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
Waves of roars came from the fog, and some towering heads could be vaguely seen.
"Big Brother, the Beast Stampede... the Beast Stampede is coming!"
Wang Xian'er's pretty face was pale, and her beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
"Follow the previous method and try to delay it," Wang Yan said solemnly, and went straight to a withered tree and started carving.
Seeing this, Wang Xian'er's beautiful eyes widened, and a look of disbelief bloomed in her eyes.
She did not think that Wang Yan could really comprehend this high-level formation in half an incense stick of time, and he could even set it up.
Such talent and martial arts aptitude were truly terrifying, and could even be called a demon!
"Roar!"
Just then, the sound of a beast's roar interrupted Wang Xian'er's thoughts.
Looking at Wang Yan who was immersed in carving, she took a deep breath, and the power of her Divine Soul roared out.
Regardless of whether or not Wang Yan could successfully arrange the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array, she had to stop the beast tide, not delay it!
At this moment, Wang Yan was not as calm and relaxed as he appeared on the surface. In fact, his heart was very anxious.
With his current cultivation, although he could arrange the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array, it could at most resist the attack of a 3rd stage Star Forging cultivator.
Wang Yan was truly helpless if he wanted to go any higher.
But there was only one problem he had to face, and that was to arrange the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array before the beast tide arrived.
Recalling the essentials of the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array, Wang Yan's carving speed gradually increased, and the consumption of his Divine Soul was extremely fast.
This was because arranging an array consumed not star power, but soul power.
Otherwise, with Wang Yan's current state, even if he comprehended the Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array, he would not be able to arrange it.
"Explode!"
A cold shout sounded, like a mountain stream gurgling in winter, carrying with it a biting chill.
Wang Xian 'er's slender, jade-like hand pointed from afar, and a gigantic first-order demonic beast exploded.
In an instant, flesh and blood danced in the air, causing an uproar among the group of monster beasts.
Wang Xian 'er didn't dare to stop. Her gaze swept across the gigantic demonic beasts, and these demonic beasts would explode into pieces.
"Peng peng peng!"
For a time, muffled sounds rang out, and the sky was filled with flesh and blood. The scene was bloody and cruel, just like an Asura purgatory!
Wang Xian 'er's pretty face was as white as paper, and her delicate body trembled.
But she bit her lips, forcing herself to open her eyes and face all of this.
If she cowardly retreated because of fear, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Therefore, the indifferent and pure Wang Xian 'er faced such a cruel scene for the first time in her life.
And all of this would be deeply engraved in her mind, engraved in her heart, unforgettable.
Wang Xian 'er waved her hand tirelessly. She had already forgotten how many beasts she had killed.
Her soul was almost exhausted, and the Beast Tide had long disappeared from her eyes. All that was left was a mist of blood and flesh.
She was numb.
"It's done!"
Right at this moment, a voice that was mixed with joy suddenly resounded.
Though it was inconspicuous among the earth-shattering roars of the beasts, to Wang Xian 'er, it was like music from the heavens.
"Xian 'er, thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me."
Patting her thin shoulder, Wang Yan's eyes flickered with regret.
Hearing this, Wang Xian 'er finally stopped. She closed her eyes and collapsed to the ground.
Wang Yan sighed and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.
"Don't worry. As long as I'm not dead, you will be fine."
Placing Wang Xian 'er on a soft meadow, Wang Yan turned around to look at the monster tide that was rushing at them. The tenderness in his eyes disappeared.
"Five Symbols Dragon Locking Array, rise!"
