"Hehe… Hahaha!" 'Chu Mi' laughed wildly as though she had just heard the biggest joke. "Me? Afraid of you? Haha! What a joke."
Her laughter caused everyone in this place to look at Yun Lintian strangely. Except for Yang Chen, who was wholeheartedly believed in Yun Lintian, the rest felt Yun Lintian's statement was too absurd. They admitted Yun Lintian was strong, but in front of the Saint Profound Beast, his current strength wasn't enough to confront it head-on. Let alone made it fear him.
"Whether it's true or not, you know in your heart." Yun Lintian still had a smile on his face.
'Chu Mi' abruptly stopped laughing and looked at Yun Lintian with a sneer. "You have overestimated yourself. Do you know why I had so many opportunities to kill you, but I left you alive until now? It's because you're nothing but an ant I could pinch to death at any time. Now you're saying I'm afraid of you? Heh, it seems the blast earlier makes your head gone south."
Suddenly, it was Yun Lintian's turn to laugh. He shook his head, looking at 'Chu Mi' with pity, and said. "You don't have to bluff me. If you had so many chances as you said, you wouldn't wait until now." He chuckled and continued. "Besides, you think you've succeeded just because you've destroyed the formation node here?… Heh, I'll let you see who is being naïve."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtImmediately, Yun Lintian stomped his feet on the supposedly destroyed formation node. With a click, a powerful aura burst out, speedily covering the entire area in almost an instant.
The sudden change caused Chu Mi's expression to change drastically. She could perceive a powerful suppression bore down onto her body, and her strength gradually left her at the fastest speed. In a blink of an eye, her power had been reduced to the peak of Heaven Profound Realm.
"You! How did you do it!? I obviously…" 'Chu Mi' stared at Yun Lintian in horror. Before this, she was confident these youths were nothing but ants dancing in her palm. Now, with her current strength, it would be a lie if she wasn't fear.
Except for Tian Jiuyi, everyone looked at Yun Lintian in amazement when they noticed the change in Chu Mi's power. They didn't expect Yun Lintian to hide such a powerful trump card… How did he know a situation like this would occur?
Yun Lintian laughed slightly. "Honestly, this plan wouldn't have worked if you are proficient in the formation profound art. You don't know how powerful the spatial suppressing formation that Lord Sky Throne had set up. Its primary function indeed is to suppress the spatial activity in this place. However, there are actually another two functions hidden within it. First, it is the Space Collapse that I showed you before. As for another one… it has the ability to suppress the strength of a Saint Profound Beast like you."
He sighed and continued. "We've underestimated Lord Sky Throne too much."
It was not only Chu Mi who underestimated Lord Sky Throne, but also Yun Lintian. He always wondered why Lord Sky Throne was so lousy by leaving no sure-kill means behind for such a potential disaster-level enemy.
When he saw the Space Collapse function, he was amazed and entirely overlooked the second function. It was until he started inscribing formation stones did he notice it and chose to conceal it from everyone. Afterward, he came up with a hidden method to set up the formation that even Tian Jiuyi didn't know.
Yun Lintian told Tian Jiuyi to arrange the formation stones, but he didn't tell him that among them, there was a defensive formation stone that would create layers upon layers of barriers to protect the core area of the formation node.
In short, the destroyed formation node that everyone saw right now was nothing but a mere scrap of its outer layer…
Tian Jiuyi quickly turned to look at the supposedly destroyed formation node and used his foot to clear the formation's debris away. Sure enough, a faint golden barrier immediately appeared in his sight, and the core formation node could be seen perfectly fine behind it.
Tian Jiuyi was genuinely astonished this time. He turned to Yun Lintian and couldn't help saying. "Had she placed the bomb right in the core area, this wouldn't work at all… You are lucky."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYun Lintian shook his head slightly. "There's no absolute in this world. I could only take a gamble." He then turned to 'Chu Mi' with a mocking smile. "Thankfully, she's an idiot who knows nothing about the formation profound art."
Chu Mi's face turned green in anger when she heard this, but she couldn't blame anyone except for herself. Even though she had the ability to read others' memories, her knowledge regarded the formation profound art was too shallow… It could be said, she chose the wrong target to morph herself. Had she chosen Tian Jiuyi, everything would be in her grasp by now.
Chu Mi took a deep breath, and her face turned hideous. "So what? Killing all of you would still be easy for me. I'll start with this guy first!"
As her voice fell, Chu Mi exerted her strength into her grip to break Chu Heng's neck. However, before she could do that, she suddenly discovered she couldn't move her body at all.
"What…"
Boom!
Before Chu Mi could finish her sentence, she was instantly sent away by Yang Chen. Her figure flew away like a broken kite and landed heavily on a large boulder a hundred meters away.
"Ah, how rude of me. I forgot to tell you. In the addition of the power suppressing function, I have added another function to restrain any profound beast's action for a short moment… Are you okay?" Yun Lintian grinned playfully as he walked toward Chu Mi.
Earlier, he sent a sound transmission to Yang Chen, who stood closest to Chu Mi, to take action when the latter tried to kill Chu Heng. Fortunately, Yang Chen reacted quickly enough. Otherwise, Chu Heng would be dead by now.
Even if this Chu Mi's current strength was reduced to Heaven Profound Realm, she was a genuine Saint Profound Beast, after all.. Yun Lintian's formation could only restrain her for two seconds at most.
