Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2767 - 2766: The 3,000 Sword Array!

In the dense jungle, the sunset's lingering glow bathes the serene landscape in a silvery radiance.

Dugu Tian fixes his intense gaze upon the "Five Elements Xuanwu Formation," which gleams with the brilliant light of the Five Elements.

His eyes reflect both intrigue and defiance, since Lin Dong has compelled him to unleash a full-powered blow from a Stage Five Grandmaster.

Will it hold?

Could a formation led by just a Second-layer Heaven Grandmaster truly repel a deadly assault from a Fifth-layered Heaven Grandmaster?

"Boom!" With a thunderous explosion, Dugu Tian channels his fist, releasing the pinnacle strike of a Stage Five Grandmaster at maximum force.

The fist's gale roars like a dragon, bearing devastating might that rips through the void and slams fiercely into the "Five Elements Xuanwu Formation"'s shield.

Yet that apparently ethereal barrier stands firm like an indestructible boulder, merely quivering lightly a few times before settling back into stillness, without even a trace of disturbance.

"This... is too powerful!" After delivering the punch, Dugu Tian's eyes sharpen as he turns immediately toward Lin Dong.

Though no array master himself, he possesses profound knowledge of formation arts.

"War God Lin, to me, this setup's defensive strength has hit at least the peak of a third-level defense array, maybe surpassing that!"

He understood that third-level defense arrays were incredibly scarce, capable of resisting strikes from nearly all Grandmasters, and the one now far outstripped his predictions.

Lin Dong thought briefly, then spoke once more: "Senior Dugu, push your power further to probe this formation’s limits. It hasn't hit its ceiling yet!"

"War God Lin, do you mean I should amp up to a Sixth-stage Grandmaster's strike?" Dugu Tian's tone held a trace of doubt.

After all, testing like this challenged them both.

Lin Dong nodded resolutely: "Exactly. Knowing this formation's boundaries is vital for our coming team match."

With Lin Dong's affirmation, Dugu Tian drew a deep breath, his body's true qi surging wildly like raging oceans and rivers.

He amassed power anew, this time launching a complete Sixth-stage Grandmaster assault,

The fist wind morphs into a dazzling light streak, wielding Heaven and Earth might, thundering toward the "Five Elements Xuanwu Formation."

"Boom––!"

This clash erupts far fiercer than the last, jolting the whole area. The Five Elements Xuanwu Formation's barrier finally ripples visibly, its five elements' glow flashing erratically, locked in a brutal battle against the immense force.

Still, the shield endures stubbornly, fully halting Dugu Tian’s blow, though its brilliance fades a bit, showing the strike's exceptional potency.

Within the array, Ye Linglong and her comrades share stunned looks, disbelief etched in their gazes.

They were merely youthful martial artists of mixed cultivation realms, but the "Five Elements Xuanwu Formation" had blocked a Sixth-stage Grandmaster's attack—utterly inconceivable.

"I actually joined a formation that repels a Grandmaster?" one martial way Grandmaster cried out.

"And a Sixth-stage Grandmaster's strike at that! Heavens, I'm only a Gold-Realm Martial Artist, yet part of such a setup. I'll brag about this forever!"

"To us regular soldiers, Grandmasters are divine beings. One look from them could wipe us out. But today, I stood against their power!"

"Isn't War God Lin just too incredible? He transforms the ordinary into wonders!"

"With this formation, who in the team match can breach us?"

"This team match won't end like the previous one."

"..."

Right then, these three thousand warriors overflowed with unshakeable confidence.

Meanwhile, their reverence for Lin Dong soared to unimaginable heights.

Dugu Tian, beholding this spectacle, regarded Lin Dong with shock and awe in his eyes.

He saw that this young War God excelled not just in martial cultivation but also shone brilliantly in alchemy, divine talismans, and formations, marking him as a supreme talent of the age.

"War God Lin, this formation likely matches a fourth-level defense array, or beyond." Dugu Tian spoke with genuine respect.

He knew he'd beheld true prodigy today.

"Armed with this defensive array, Dragon Country War Department’s team will secure a top spot this time!"

Lin Dong gave a faint smile: "Not yet sufficient. Defense by itself falls short. We need an offensive formation too."

"Purely defending is like a turtle shelling up for hits."

"For first place, ironclad defense isn't enough—we have to crush the rivals."

Beneath the sunset's glow, Lin Dong positions himself outside the Five Elements Xuanwu Formation, his eyes scanning the energetic young martial artists ahead.

Traces of awe lingered on their faces from the array's mighty defense.

"Everyone, the Five Elements Xuanwu Formation excels in defense, but as I mentioned, real triumph demands potent offense as its backbone."

"Now, I'll impart a mighty offensive array: the ’Three Thousand Sword Formation’."

Lin Dong's voice rings clear and forceful, every syllable landing with heavy impact on their souls.

He unfurls an aged array diagram, packed with intricate sword runes and trajectories—the blueprint for the Three Thousand Sword Formation.

"This array demands each of you wield a sword, making three thousand in total, to unleash its full might. When activated, it unleashes a sword rain, unstoppable from any angle."

As Lin Dong elaborates, the group springs into action, pulling swords from their packs—long ones, short ones, keen blades, ancient relics. Swordless ones borrow from fellows.

Some swap swords for staffs!

Ye Linglong, team leader and Five Elements Xuanwu Formation core, gains a pivotal role: chief array master for the Three Thousand Sword Formation.

"Ye Linglong, you'll be the spirit of this Three Thousand Sword Formation." Lin Dong approaches her and declares:

"Use that Fourth-rank Spirit Rope ’Spirit Snake Rope’ I gave you as your sword. It doubles as weapon and the link binding the whole sword array. Channel the Spirit Snake Rope to direct and fuse everyone's Sword Qi into a killing blow."

Ye Linglong retrieves the Fourth-rank Spirit Rope ’Spirit Snake Rope’ and, per Lin Dong’s directions, activates it.

At once, a soft spiritual energy flows from the rope into her, blending with her spirit, like granting invisible wings that floods her with assurance for the task.

"As chief array master, your duty is tough." Lin Dong presses on, "Position at the sword formation's heart, employ the Spirit Snake Rope to detect each sword's spot and Sword Qi intensity, steer those Sword Qis via the array map's routes with precise seals and chants, forging them into an unstoppable sword torrent."

Lin Dong meticulously guides Ye Linglong on wielding the Spirit Snake Rope and her spiritual power to sense and command every thread of Sword Qi in the formation.

He shows elaborate seals, each gesture exact, while chanting arcane verses that vibrate the air with mystic force.

Ye Linglong concentrates deeply, her gaze igniting, as if cutting through darkness to grasp every fine detail of the sword array.

She tries it out, per Lin Dong’s lead, wielding the Spirit Snake Rope, extending her palm slowly, fingertips brushing the void like caressing unseen Sword Qis.

Her actions stir the nearby swords to quiver faintly, answering her summons, as faint Sword Qi strands begin trailing under her lead along designated paths.

With passing time, Ye Linglong masters the Spirit Snake Rope better, her Sword Qi awareness sharpening.

She evolves into the Three Thousand Sword Formation's pulse, each throb syncing the array's rhythm, signaling the brewing storm of assault.

Through Lin Dong’s precise instruction, the Three Thousand Sword Formation assembles steadily, every warrior integral to this vast sword setup, with Ye Linglong as the nucleus channeling it all into might.

Precisely what explosive power it holds remains unknown to Lin Dong.

He pivots, eyes on Dugu Tian again.

"Senior Dugu, we must ask you once more to assay the Three Thousand Sword Formation's might!"
