Chapter Five: Inviting You into the Urn

  Qian Yu looked at Lin Fan and said, "Aren't you worried that Shan Gui will take advantage of your incomplete formation and launch a surprise attack on you?"

  "No, since Shan Xiao has lured the enemy into the forest, it means that there were already arrangements made within. He will keep waiting for me until he loses patience and comes out to look for me." Lin Fan replied confidently, flicking his hand as one by one, talismans flew out and stuck onto the tree trunks.

  Senba Michito was somewhat puzzled: "What formation is this?" Hakaren? No. Beidou Qixing? Not that either.

  Lin Fan said: "This is called a circular formation. When Shan Gui enters the belly of the earth, all the talismans will be activated at once." Simple and clear.

  Qian Yu Zhen Ren asked: "No yin and yang, no life and death gates, no changes?"

  "No!" Lin Fan asked: "Master, can you help me change a group of people? This group is too boring. From Yun Qing Mountain to here, except for the polite talk between brothers and sisters, they haven't spoken like normal people."

  Senya Kizaki smiled and said, "On the other hand, they may have had thoughts like yours."

  "Huh?" Lin Fan stopped writing, this sentence made sense. Along the way, he hadn't done anything, and it was possible that everyone felt suffocated, but no one wanted to be the first to break the harmonious yet stifling atmosphere. Lin Fan nodded: "The leader is indeed the leader, these words are insightful."

  Senya didn't say a word, floated to the side and hid his breath and body, quietly waiting. Lin Fuan furrowed his brow, it's coming. Senya couldn't help but laugh and cry, this little ghost was too clever, as soon as he left, he knew the mountain goblin was approaching. Good and bad, good is clever, bad is really encountering an enemy, probably no one would give a warning.

  The sound of laughter surrounded Lin Fan, and then a black shadow quickly passed by, tearing off a talisman and discarding it. The second one, the third one...

  Lin Fan didn't seem to be in a hurry, and the talismans in his hand flew out one by one. Shan Cuo tore one apart, and Lin Fan replenished one, with a speed that was not slower than Shan Cuo's at all.

  Then Lin Fan exclaimed "Ah!" and looked at his left hand, which was empty.

  Senba Koji smiled wryly, "You still have two bundles of yellow paper in your luggage, and the performance is quite realistic."

  That mountain goblin sneered with a series of shrill laughs, clearing layer after layer of purification talismans, before pouncing towards the helpless Lin Fan in the center.

  The mountain goblin's double claws reached out to grab Lin Fan, but Lin Fan stuck a talisman on the nearby rock with his left hand. It was a displacement talisman, and Lin Fan exchanged positions with the rock. The mountain goblin's claw grabbed onto the rock instead, and the rock crumbled under its grasp. The mountain goblin flew backward, letting out a pained cry. Just because teeth can crush sand doesn't mean they won't hurt.

  The Lin family's secret method of qin (zither) playing is: "Rise!"

  Bushes, grass thicket hundred talismans fly up and stick to the tree trunk, emitting a faint glow. Lin Fan flies out of the talisman, one falls into the grass thicket, and one flies onto the tree trunk. The tree trunk talisman is destroyed, but the grass thicket talisman is preserved. After Mountain Goblin tears off the talisman and discards it, it adds another layer of cover for the hidden grass thicket talisman. Please enter the pot successfully.

  Shan Xiao looked around, predicting the power of these talismans. Lin Fan spoke patiently from one side: "Shan Xiao, I already know that our sect leader is using you to test us. Why don't we sit down and talk? How about a game of Tian Jiu Pai?" During this time, Lin Fan took out four more talismans. The more Shan Xiao hesitated, the greater Lin Fan's advantage became.

  Lin Fan quickly saw through the mountain goblin's plan and prepared to attack, reminding him: "This formation is called the Six Desolations Eight Heavens Formation, it is a secret formation passed down by my sect's master. Once activated, it will kill gods if it encounters them, and behead ghosts if it encounters them, with no exceptions. This formation can also transform into the All Heaven Formation, the Seven Stars North Dipper Formation, the Eight Trigrams Life and Death Formation, the Sun Movement Formation, and the Moon Devouring Formation. The most terrifying thing is that this formation can finally transform into the Demon Slaying Magic Formation, regardless of whether you are a Great Luo Golden Immortal or a Mahayana Evil God, it will kill everything!"

  It's almost enough, Lin Fan is too lazy to drag on, looking at Shan Xiao: "Shan Xiao, the decision is now in your hands, it's very impressive."

  The mountain goblin slammed its fists against its chest and let out a furious roar, as two vines burst forth from the ground beneath Lin Fan's feet. Lin Fan had seen this trick before, and he swiftly stuck the talisman in his hand onto the stone that had just swapped places with him. The vines bound the stone tightly. At the same time, Lin Fan chanted: "Swiftly!"

  Over a hundred talismans responded in unison, with dozens of them emitting intense light.

  Flaming Light Jade Maiden, Thunderbolt Blazing Fire General, Fire Crow Fire Horse, Fire Covers Heaven and Earth. Fire Bell Great Deity, Quickly Burn Evil Spirits. Hurry Up Like a Command!

  These dozens of talismans are called Fire Spirit Talismans. The mountain goblins fled in all directions, the firelight shot onto the ground, and then bounced back to continue their pursuit. One beam of firelight wrapped around a mountain goblin, binding it, while the rest of the firelight, like moths flying into flames, crashed into the mountain goblin's body from all sides.

  A loud thunderclap resounded through the clear sky, and the fire spirits burst forth in unison. The flames vanished instantly, leaving behind only a charred and smoldering mountain goblin with its entire body hair burnt off.

  Heavenly thunder rumbles and strikes the golden drum, divine thunder powerfully shakes off the dark fog. Dragon thunder shakes the earth with fiery red flames, burning away evil demons without a trace. Hurry up like an imperial order!

  The second batch, Heavenly Thunder Symbol (Fire), dozens of thunderbolts converged into a size similar to an infant's arm, striking the mountain goblin's forehead. The mountain goblin's body swayed several times before crashing to the ground with a loud thud.

  "Stop." Although Shan Xiao had an internal elixir to protect his body, Lin Fan might not be able to take his life, but Shan Xiao needed a recovery period. And Lin Fan's speed of drawing talismans was clearly faster than Shan Xiao's internal elixir healing speed. The subsequent development could be completely predicted, Shan Xiao would be like a target, allowing Lin Fan to whip him at will, without any chance of fighting back or escaping.

  Lin Fan waved his hand, and the remaining talismans floated down to the ground. Qian Yu True Person said: "You have passed the trial, you can go save them now."

  "Yes, Master."

  Senya Katsuragi let out a sigh as she gazed at the mountain of corpses on the ground. This group was her carefully handpicked team, consisting of the crème de la crème among the younger generation of each sect. Originally, there was no place for Lin Fan, but since the leader of the Righteous Sect was being stubborn, Senya reluctantly agreed to let him try. The result was completely unexpected - Gu Yan's cultivation was high, but he had no strategic mind and was lured into a trap. Bai Muzhen's calculations were precise, but she lacked actual combat experience. Ye Wushuang's magic scrolls changed in countless ways, but she also lacked combat experience, and in her haste, she even held the scrolls upside down.

  Lin Fan was completely the opposite, thinking immediately when encountering things, discovering what's wrong and then deducing that it was a well-planned trial. He would set up his formation, openly repairing the plank road while secretly crossing to Chen Cang, first establishing his own inevitable defeat before inviting the enemy to enter the trap, trapping Shan Gui to death inside.

  Senjyu Shinjin had previously only lamented that Lin Fan's cleverness was beyond her expectations, but with the emergence of Huo Ling and Tian Lei symbols, Senjyu Shinjin realized that she had still underestimated Lin Fan's strength. The abilities of others can be seen at a glance, but Lin Fan is an exception. Lin Fan has two kinds of abilities: one is the cultivation level and the depth of Taoism that can be seen; the other is called skills. When others draw three talismans, there will be some deviation, while in the same time, Lin Fan can draw ten talismans with precision, and his power is several times stronger in comparison.
