Chapter 164: The Might of the Spirit Nurturing Tower, Aura Cut Off
It was a simple thought, but it was extremely difficult to execute.
Su Yi relied on his speed to dodge another torrent of swords, and a cold light condensed on his fingertip.
He wanted to see if his attack could stop thousands of bronze swords.
If he kept attacking like this, not to mention finding spiritual stones to circulate spiritual qi, he would be finished too.
“Tiangang, Sky-slashing Finger!”
Without any hesitation, he used the eleventh move of the Tiangang Sword Finger.
He wanted to use the Extreme Heaven-defying Divine Sky Palm to shatter the bronze swords with one slap, but the palm technique not only consumed a lot of true essence, but also took a much longer time to condense than the Tiangang Sky-slashing Finger.
In this array that would be pierced into a hornet’s nest for thousands of years even if it was a second slower, it was indeed not effective.
Therefore, he could only take a step back and use the sword finger.
His body slightly paused, and his true essence exploded from his body. His finger tip was circulating with mysterious sword intent.
“Cut!”
With a low shout, he waved the hand that was condensing the sword finger and slashed forward.
An invisible force directly collided with the incoming sword rain.
Bang bang–
Instantly, the sound of metal interweaving rang out. With a wave of Su Yi’s finger, the sword rain that initially filled the sky was chopped off, and few dozen bronze swords disappeared..
The array patterns carved on the broken bronze swords could not function properly, so they fell to the ground in pieces.
“Hey, it worked… My ass!”
Originally, he was a little excited to see that he could chop off those bronze swords, but in just an instant, the incoming bronze swords filled up the gap again.
It was as if there was no end to it.
In an instant, he started to run. His speed was so fast that he almost left an afterimage on the spot. However, in the next second, this afterimage was pierced through by countless swords.
Su Yi, who had already escaped, wiped the cold sweat off his head.
“Good lord, I really can’t stop for even a moment.”
His footsteps did not stop. He had already quickly dodged in a zigzag pattern.
At the same time, he was glad that no one was controlling this formation. If someone was controlling it and controlled the thousands of longswords to surround him, would he not be finished?
As if he had heard Su Yi’s thoughts, in the sky where Su Yi could not see, a huge formation pattern was faintly discernible started to react. It was as if the formation was a creature that had not been killed for a long time.
The original formation pattern suddenly rotated and changed the arrangement of the formation patterns. At the same time, within the fog sword formation, one could see that the bronze longsword, which was originally a torrent of bronze, had split into two.
Moreover, both of them were locked onto Su Yi’s aura. Numerous longswords carried the momentum of breaking through the air as they surrounded him.
At this moment, his vision was obstructed and he could only rely on his hearing to determine the direction of the next attack of the bronze sword rain.
However, when he heard the sound of air being torn apart from his surroundings, his pupils constricted and a bitter smile appeared on his face as he said.
“It can’t be. I was just casually thinking about it. Could it be that your sword formation can also read minds?”
While he was complaining, the speed of his feet became even faster. He could hear that the originally mighty sword rain had suddenly become much smaller, and there was an additional direction.
He immediately understood that the bronze sword rain, which had split into two sword streams, was trying to kill him here.
“Damn it, it’s catching up!”
As he frantically dodged the sword rain behind him, the sound of metal colliding could be heard in front of him again.
He knew that he was finished. He was surrounded.
He frantically dodged the sword rain’s attacks while seeking a chance to survive.
His speed was very fast, but his vision was blocked, so he could only move quickly in a small area. Moreover, if he did not have a clear vision, he would not even know if he was sending his body into a wall of swords in front of him.
Therefore, relying on speed to break through this bind was a bad idea and he skipped it.
With a bitter expression, he thought to himself, it would be great if he could grow wings and fly away. He took out a small tower with a serious look in his eyes.
This small tower was the Spirit Nurturing Tower that he had bought from the breakthrough gift bag. It was said to be able to defend against a strike from a golden core stage cultivator.
At first, he wanted to use this magic treasure, but he did not want to gamble.
The power of these sword rain was not very strong. It probably had the power of a foundation establishment, but there were simply too many of them that he could not withstand it all.
He did not know how much the defensive formation of the spirit gathering tower could withstand. If he ran out of true essence, then he would be done for.
However, he could not make too many choices now. His vision was blocked, the road ahead was blocked, and the sword rain was about to surround him.
He could only take this gamble. His true essence flowed crazily into the golden core through his meridians as he chanted.
“Give it to me, open!”
As his true essence was rapidly depleted, the Spirit Nurturing Tower in his hand shone brightly.
Mysterious array patterns began to quickly outline. A 3x3x3 array formation formed around Su Yi, enveloping him within.
Immediately, Su Yi’s aura was isolated, while the bronze longswords surrounded him, heavily washing over the defensive array formation constructed by the Spirit Nurturing Tower.
Clanging sounds continuously sounded on the defensive formation. Countless longswords lost their target and fell to the ground.
This caused him to be dumbfounded. Why did these longswords stop attacking?
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. His gaze stared at the Spirit Nurturing Tower in his hand and saw the information on it once again.
The defensive formation could isolate his aura.
“Could it be because this sword array couldn’t lock onto me with my aura?”
He was not sure. If it was true, it would be a pleasant surprise.
Losing the target meant that he would not be attacked by those long swords. He could hold on for a while longer.
He felt the loss of his true essence. When he was not attacked, he did not need too much true essence to keep the Spirit Nurturing Tower running.
With his current true essence reserves, he could maintain it for an entire day.
However, this was not a method to break the array. The mission notification required him to break the sword array and reach a certain location before the mission could be considered complete.
However, all of this was not a problem. At this moment, the corner of Su Yi’s mouth was slightly raised, and his eyes were shining with a bright light.
Previously, he did not have the time to take a breather to break the array, and it was not because he did not have a way to break the array.
Now that he was able to free himself, he had to do his best to break the formation!
He held a small tower that was emitting a mysterious light in his hand, and he no longer cowered in fear. Instead, he took large strides forward. Without the threat of the sword rain, he began to search for the source of the formation within the dense fog.
Spirit stones!
