After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 142 Talisman and Magic
Lin Zhao had no idea that Ming Yue was worried sick about her. After she and Su Bai had planned the layout of the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation, they were thinking about how to deploy it.

“Our formation lacks pre-prepared array flags, so we need to use people carrying the spirit seals that you and I have drawn as the array's core. But using people as the array's core…” Lin Zhao paused for a moment before continuing.

"We will have to send people to confront the disciples who have formed alliances with the four sides. Casualties are inevitable. Only by setting up the Spirit Locking Array can the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Array be established."

Su Bai said, "This is necessary. Otherwise, in the final battle, we won't be able to secure our position as the number one power on the continent, let alone protect our own lives."

Lin Zhao suppressed her emotions, picked up her brush and drew the array. Su Bai then added details on the outline she had drawn, specifying how to arrange each stroke and each team of the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Array, and who would be the array's core.

With their calculations happening rapidly and in large quantities, the two had no time to think about anything else.

On the other side, Ning Wengui organized the team and, according to Lin Zhao's previous instructions, divided them into more than a hundred small teams based on their attributes and strength. The last batch of teams was the largest in number and had the most members, all of whom were at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage. The team leaders were experts who had reached the Fifteen Streams of Spirit among the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage.

However, both they and Ning Wengui understood that this group of teams would be the first to act as the outer perimeter of the formation, meaning they would be the first to encounter the allied forces from all four sides and engage in battle.

The second group consisted of squad leaders who had reached the level of Entering the Yanghui and Opening the Yanghui. Even the most ordinary disciples in this group possessed fifteen streams of spiritual energy. They were about to enter the inner circle of the formation and use the spiritual seals on their bodies to remove the enemy's formation flags and change the layout of the Spirit Locking Formation. Of course, this process would inevitably be met with a counterattack from the enemy's formation master.

The last group consisted of squad leaders who were all at the Yuan Yang Hui Golden Core level, including Su Bai, Ning Wengui, Lin Zhao, Qu Shu, Lei Yuanzi (Deputy Captain of the Thunder Palace), and others.

This team will head to the core area to confront the enemy's Yuan Yang Hui Golden Core, the core of their formation, and reverse the formation. If the formation is successfully changed, all the resources mined in the Tianhuang Sea will belong to their Tianhuang Continent. If they fail... then the only outcome will be death.

At this moment, they all understood that this continental competition was not a contest between sects, but a war for the younger generation.

When a war reaches this stage, it can only end when it's a fight to the death.

"Our strength is absolutely superior to that of the four-way alliance." Ning Wengui used his spiritual power to transmit his voice to each disciple's ears, giving instructions word by word according to Lin Zhao's words.

"However, we are in the shadows while the enemy is in the open. They are unaware of our plans and the timing of our attack, which is our advantage. Therefore, our strategy is to strike unexpectedly and achieve our goal. Once the spirit seal is successfully activated, we will prioritize our own lives and not engage in a life-or-death battle with them. Once the formation is complete, the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation will automatically seal their spiritual power. As for the disciples who sacrifice themselves before the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation is completed, the Tianhuang Continent will do its best to compensate your families."

The arrangements on both sides proceeded in an orderly manner. Lin Zhao and Su Bai's battle formation was also becoming increasingly complete.

For Lin Zhao to draw the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation diagram alone, given his current cultivation level and the strength of his divine soul, is basically a pipe dream.

After all, it's an array that requires at least a level 5 spirit talisman master to imprint their spirit seal. Fortunately, Su Bai was there this time.

However, Su Bai was completely unfamiliar with this formation and needed Lin Zhao to explain how to draw it.

It took the two of them seven days and seven nights to completely complete the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation.

As the last stroke was completed, Lin Zhao wiped away his sweat, pressed his temples, and said to the person beside him, "I'll rest for a while before we start again."

She needs to get herself back to peak condition before starting this operation.

After witnessing the preparations for the four-way alliance, Lin Zhao understood that every move he made could cost him his life.

Especially after her battle with Chen Yahu, which left her deaf for a whole day, Lin Zhao understood even more that she could never let her guard down.

Chen Yahu was able to launch an attack even after taking three blows to the head with his explosive fist; the remaining four allied powerhouses would only be even more terrifying. Su Bai completed the sealing of the formation half an hour after Lin Zhao, but he wasn't good at manipulating it, so he simply sat down next to Lin Zhao and recovered together with him.

Lin Zhao looked up and saw this scene. He wanted to say something, but when he saw the dark circles under the boy's eyes, he inexplicably thought that this child had also huddled tightly beside him when he was a child.

When he was first brought back to the Lin family, he would attack anyone who approached him, like a small beast whose territory had been invaded, always cowering close to him.

It wasn't until a month later that he accepted his surroundings.

Recalling that small, thin boy from back then, Lin Zhao felt less resistant.

Seeing that Su Bai was leaning closer to her, she guessed that he was cold, so she took out a soft blanket from her spatial ring and covered Su Bai with it.

Her body was almost fully recovered after a night's rest, but Lin Zhao found it somewhat amusing to see Su Bai fall asleep while cultivating.

She quietly got up, gave Su Bai another support, then set up a soundproof array and asked Ning Wengui, "Is everything arranged?"

Ning Wengui nodded: "That's about it."

Lin Zhao said, "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me."

This coordination task could be handled by either her or Su Bai, but considering the alliance among the four parties, Lin Zhao felt she had to personally complete it to feel at ease.

"The first batch of teams, follow the array route I sent to you in the Heavenly Mirror, arrive at the green area, and use spiritual energy to activate the spirit seals given to you to land. Your mission will be completed. During this process, try to hide yourselves as much as possible if you can avoid encountering the enemy on the other side."

Then, Lin Zhao looked at the disciples on the other side, "The second batch of teams will go to the yellow area. Your mission is arduous. You will inevitably face the enemy's best. Remember, if the array flags are not successfully removed, death awaits us. But if the more areas you belong to successfully change their arrays, the faster the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Array will be formed and the stronger it will be. Your lives will be more likely to be saved."

After saying this, Lin Zhao clenched his fist and said, "As for the third batch of disciples who went to the red zone with me... for us, the only way is to risk our lives to hold off the strong opponents so that the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation can be fully established at the core of the formation. Everyone must understand that we don't need to win, but we must hold them off and wait for the formation to be established. Once the formation is established, we will have a chance to win this game and the competition that follows."

The disciples of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent nodded solemnly. They understood perfectly what Lin Zhao's words meant; they had no way out.

If the Four-Party Alliance succeeds in this grand undertaking, not only will the position of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent as the number one continent be in jeopardy, but once each of the four continents possesses unparalleled power, they will not wait for the disciples of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent to participate in the final resource competition within the Heavenly Phoenix Source.

After Lin Zhao made the arrangements, the first batch of disciples set off one after another.

Once all the disciples had left, Lin Zhao looked at the green area of ​​the array diagram in his hand that had been lit up and said, "They've started. It's time for us to move in too."

Only by replacing the core can the Spirit Locking Array become the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Array.

Su Bai, with a blanket draped over his wrist, looked at Lin Zhao upon hearing this and asked, "Should I go last to bring up the rear?"

Lin Zhao shook her head: "If I could, I wouldn't want to be the last one standing, but..."

Lin Zhao gave a wry smile: "Just consider it worrying. I have a feeling that the other side is so well prepared, they shouldn't be completely unprepared for our changed formation. In the worst-case scenario, the last one to hold the line must be me, who understands the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation. That way, even if the formation backfires, I will be the one who suffers the greatest impact, which can protect you to a great extent and at least preserve a glimmer of hope for you."
