Chapter 632: Deploying troops for defense

Red Rock Valley is surrounded by a vast expanse of mountains, forming a very wide valley. Within the Demon Wind Gobi, such continuous and majestic mountains are quite rare. The walls surrounding the valley are all made of a special red rock, which is as red as blood and incredibly hard, hence the name "Red Rock Valley."

Deep EarthSpirit General, as a Third Rank Geomancer, possesses exceptional skills in Feng Shui techniques. In just a short while, he has roughly explored the surrounding geography. A group of Formations Hall cultivators, including First Rank Formation Masters, Second Rank Formation Masters, and elite formation experts from the Taiyi Sect, have gathered here.

When it comes to leveraging the terrain and setting up great formations, Deep EarthSpirit General's abilities are not inferior to those of Wen Qiansun, a Third Rank Formation Master. Moreover, he has more extensive practical experience.

Under Deep EarthSpirit General's command, the Formation Masters begin to deploy various objects for the protective mountain formation. Formation flags are planted on the surrounding peaks. With a large number of people working together and having undergone prior rehearsals, the Six Spirits Golden Light Formation is not overly complex. In about half a day, the great formation is set up properly.

Although the protective mountain formation was set up hastily, there might be some rough spots and potential vulnerabilities. However, the basic defensive system is established. The remaining weaknesses can be repaired gradually in the future.

While Deep EarthSpirit General commands the Formation Masters to deploy the protective mountain formation, Meng Zhang leads other Gold Core Daoist Masters to patrol the area, preventing enemies from approaching and causing damage. Zheng Chao and Shocking ThunderSpirit General go even farther to scout the movements of the enemy.

Red Rock Valley is deep inside the Demon Wind Gobi, more than twenty thousand li from Taiyi Sect's mountain gate, Hundred Grass Slope. However, due to the existence of the Mother-Child Transmission Disc, Taiyi Sect's reinforcements can swiftly arrive here in an instant.

As more and more Taiyi Sect cultivators arrive, the defensive strength around Red Rock Valley continues to increase. The valley is situated to the west of the Sea Clan's headquarters, the sea, and to the east of the battlefield where the Sea Clan is fighting against the demonic beasts.

Position-wise, Red Rock Valley is deep within the Sea Clan's occupied territory and surrounded by the Sea Clan. Conversely, it is like a thorn embedded in the Sea Clan's occupied territory. Unless this thorn is removed, the Sea Clan cannot continue their eastern advance with ease. Having the strength of Taiyi Sect behind them, the Sea Clan's army is undoubtedly wary and uncomfortable.

Zheng Chao goes west while Shocking ThunderSpirit General goes east, scouting ahead to provide timely warnings for the rear. Meng Zhang, Extreme Sword Spirit General, and Delicate WaterSpirit General continuously patrol the skies over Red Rock Valley.

During their watch, a Third Rank merfolk flies over, but seeing the overwhelming strength of the Human Clan cultivators here, the merfolk doesn't dare to approach and only keeps a distant watch.

The Sea Patrolling Yaksha, despite their ferocity, were not foolish enough to fight recklessly after experiencing such a blow. They became somewhat despondent.

The three Sea Clan experts did not dare to approach any closer and instead retreated far away, ready to flee at any moment.

In this battle, Meng Zhang and his companions not only experienced the Sea Clan's fighting prowess but also witnessed their resilience. Even a random Third Rank merfolk could produce a Fourth Rank item for life preservation at a crucial moment.

Of course, Meng Zhang and his group were unaware of the status of the merfolk expert they faced, which was significant within the merfolk clan.

Shortly after the battle, the Third Rank protective great formation was completed. After a thorough inspection, it was activated. The spiritual energy in the sky above Red Rock Valley surged, and the underground veins below trembled. The Third Rank spirit vein had established a connection with the protective mountain formation.

The surrounding mountains of Red Rock Valley seemed to be covered in a golden glow, and with time, this glow grew even more intense. Despite the simple survey, Deep EarthSpirit General gained a profound understanding of the Third Rank spirit vein here. Both the quantity and quality of the spiritual energy provided were exceptional.

The current Third Rank spirit vein at Hundred Grass Slope was far inferior to the one here. Even before the explosion damaged Myriad Layers Peak, there was still a noticeable difference compared to the Third Rank spirit vein in Red Rock Valley.

If it weren't for the abundant spiritual energy provided by the underground river, Taiyi Sect wouldn't be able to sustain so many Gold Core cultivators.

With the activation of the Third Rank protective great formation, it signified that Taiyi Sect had completed the initial defensive preparations here, achieving the first stage of their combat objectives.
