Huan Ming only had time to put up a wind barrier when Wu Tian's fist landed on him, the small fist landed on the wind barrier and broke through it domineeringly and caught Huan Ming on the chest, he was immediately blown away, and vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood as his body sailed through the air.
However Wu Tian felt that the sensation was bit off, he had felt the robe on Huan Ming reduce the force of his punch otherwise the punch would have made Huan Ming vomit more than a mouthful of blood.
Even if he wouldn't have been blown apart he would have at least vomited out a liver and a spleen. He thus followed the principle of hitting someone when they were down and leapt up with a leg stretched, seeking to give Huan Ming a perfect kick.
Uncle Xie of course wouldn't allow that and his voice rang out furiously "you dare?" The soundwave contained an overwhelming amount of strength that knocked Wu Tian out of the air sending him careening away.
Uncle Xie moved out his hand, one moving to intercept Huan Ming and one slapping out at Wu Tian to create a spiritual energy palm that smashed at Wu Tian.
Wu Tian saw the palm and immediately knew from the sense of danger it gave him that he would definitely not survive it. Fortunately at the same time uncle Xie attacked Lin Qing also made a move.
She formed a hand sign and mobilized her spiritual energy and spiritual force, in response a formation rose from the surrounding, sucking in spiritual force from the surroundings and the spiritual stones she had placed.
It formed a shield that defended against the palm and enabled Wu Tian to safely land on the ground.
She then mobilized another formation, the three sword formation and a sword quickly condensed in the air, it swiftly shot out towards Uncle Xie who was holding a wheezing Huan Ming.
Uncle Xie cursed internally as he scolded himself for his miscalculation. He had actually attacked a formation master on their turf.
The cultivation world didn't only have cultivation; it also had other paths such as formation, alchemy, talismans, beast taming, puppetry and others.
They were all an important part of the cultivation world and anyone who attained mastery in them was highly respected.
On the formation path it was known that it was generally a really bad idea to attack a formation master on their turf. An unprepared formation master wasn't all that but a prepared one could bombard you with formation after formation unendingly.
It didn't matter how low their cultivation was if they could setup and control the formation they could definitely show you what's good.
Uncle Xie finally figured out why Lin Qing had such a strong spiritual sense, a strong soul was more important to formation masters than a strong spiritual energy. They therefore had a generally stronger spiritual sense than ordinary cultivators.
Uncle Xie wielded his magic tool, a short sword and sent it to intercept the sword. At the same time he pulled out another spiritual tool, a shield and activated it to protect himself and Huan Ming.
He didn't try to fight her, since she had a stronger spiritual sense she could definitely fight him and maybe even finish him off.
Sure enough just as this thought rose in his mind he saw a barrier rise high and envelop his surroundings, a trapping formation.
It ensured that one couldn't escape and was a formation master's favorite technique to trap like turtle and beat with a stick.
One could only stay inside and receive a one-sided beating unless they had greater strength and domineeringly broke through the formation.
He didn't hesitate and directly produced a talisman from his storage ring, this was what had given him the confidence to attack even though he sensed a stronger spiritual force.
He hastily activated it and with a prayer to all the gods and Buddhas he unhesitatingly sent it to where he thought Lin Qing was.
The talisman burst out with a strong light, forming a fireball that raced domineeringly towards the barrier encircling them, it erupted with a might at the sixth stage of foundation establishment and struck the barrier with a strong force, the barrier held for a moment, but then dimmed and collapsed under the might of the talisman.
If it was a normal formation master they would definitely have suffered a backlash from the formation breaking and be severely injured.
However when Lin Qing noticed that the formation was almost breaking she hurriedly circulated the formation through a strange path and the backlash was redirected to another formation
. She performed a technique and the energy in the trapping formation and the backlash was immediately redirected towards the three sword formation.
The energy from the talisman was reduced by a little from breaking the formation, weakening its might. However what remained was still abundantly strong and hurtled towards Lin Qing and her family. Watching it Lin Qing abandoned the other formations and siphoned away their energy
Her spiritual sense and qi sea struggled under the strain of controlling so much energy, however she had a resolute expression on her face as she forced all the energy into the sword formation which erupted with a formidable might.
Blood erupted from Lin Qing's ears as her spirit buckled under the pressure of controlling the formation without sufficient qualifications. She decisively ignored it and controlled the formation which shot out three rays of swords towards the oncoming talisman
The first sword collided with the fireball which sent out shockwaves and collapses the buildings around the mansion. Luckily Lin Qing had sent out all the servants and guards so no one was hurt, but all the buildings in the surroundings were like chaff before wind, they completely collapsed and shattered. The talisman visibly weakened collided with the second sword and was further weakened.
Determined to finish its mission it collided with the third sword and was chopped down, bursting apart. Uncle Xie's expression changed from the ecstatic on he had the moment the trapping formation broke to a panicked one as the third sword swept on after shattering the talisman, domineeringly chopping towards him.
He brandished the shield to defend against the sword but the sword hit and sent it flying and then chopped down on uncle Xie and Huan Ming.
