Chapter 191 Are you convinced now?
"Little sister!"

Yunxiao's face suddenly changed. Seeing that the sword lights became faster and more powerful after being bounced back by the formation, he immediately knew that his sister could not withstand this attack.

Without hesitation, she turned into a ray of rainbow light and rushed towards Fairy Qiongxiao.

At the same time, Fairy Qiongxiao also reacted and hurriedly asked Niangniang Shiji to stop the formation, but saw that Yang Ling had already leisurely stretched out his hand and casually grabbed the Eight Treasures Cloud Light Handkerchief.

Under Yang Ling's personal control, the power of the formation weakened instantly. The sword lights seemed to have lost their backbone and quickly dissipated, turning into points of light and eventually disappearing into nothingness.

Fairy Bixiao stood there, stunned for a moment, and then as if waking up from a dream, a look of disbelief appeared on her face.

She almost said in a trembling voice: "This...what's going on? My attack was bounced back?"

Fairy Yunxiao looked at Yang Ling deeply, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "The formation you set up is indeed amazing. At the beginning, you just defended blindly in order to paralyze the opponent so that the final counterattack can be effective in one fell swoop, right?"

Yang Ling nodded and said calmly: "This formation itself does not have the ability to counterattack, but it can turn the enemy's attack into its own use, and can play an important role at a critical moment..."

"It's indeed a good idea." Fairy Yunxiao nodded slightly, expressing her approval of the formation created by Yang Ling.

Fairy Qiongxiao on the side sighed softly. She knew that her sister Bixiao was very competitive, especially when it came to formations, and she was very confident about it. She didn't expect that she almost suffered a big loss this time!
However, this defeat can be regarded as a lesson, which may not be a bad thing for her.

At this moment, a gleam of stubbornness flashed across Fairy Bixiao's face, as if she was very unwilling to accept the failure just now.

She took a deep breath, readjusted her emotions, and then turned to Yang Ling with a challenging look in her eyes: "Daoyou, do you dare to compete with me again?"

Yang Ling smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with calmness. He mastered the secret technique of "group" and had a deep understanding of formations. Naturally, he would not refuse such a challenge.

He nodded and asked gently, "What kind of competition do you want, Brother Bixiao?"

"I will set up the formation, and you will break it." Fairy Bixiao answered straightforwardly, with confidence gleaming in her eyes. "I won't take advantage of you either. I will also use two days to set up the formation. Let's see if you can find the flaw in my formation."

Fairies Yunxiao and Qiongxiao were a little worried when they heard their sister's words, but when they saw Bixiao's determined eyes, they knew that she had made up her mind, so they stopped trying to dissuade her.

In fact, after seeing the mysteriousness of the formation set up by Yang Ling, they were also slightly excited.

Two days passed in a flash, and under the careful arrangement of Fairy Bixiao, a large formation called "Starry Sky" was quietly completed.

The materials were still provided by Niangniang Shiji, and they were also set up in the outer area of ​​Skull Mountain, but the distance was a little farther, so it had no effect on the large formation set up by Yang Ling.

This formation is guided by the power of the stars. It is difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion, and it is infinitely changeable. Even a skilled formation master would not be able to break it easily.

Yang Ling stood outside the formation, looking at the formation that was faintly twinkling with starlight, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

The three sisters are indeed masters in the art of formations. Even the youngest, Fairy Bixiao, has a rather mysterious formation that she set up on her own.

Fairy Bixiao stood in the formation, her eyes full of expectation and confidence. She believed that the formation she had set up was enough to let Yang Ling appreciate her power.

Yang Ling took a deep breath and then slowly walked into the formation.

As soon as he entered the formation, he felt the starlight around him begin to rotate, the space seemed to be constantly twisting and changing, and a strange force was wandering around.

However, there was no panic on Yang Ling's face. He closed his eyes and began to sense the operation of the formation, trying to find a way to break it.

Fairy Bixiao couldn't help but feel nervous when she saw this.

She knew that Yang Ling was not a blindly arrogant person. Since he dared to break the formation, he must have a certain degree of confidence and preparation.

As time passed, Yang Ling walked slowly in the formation. His steps seemed to echo the rhythm of the formation, and every step seemed so calm and unhurried.

Fairy Bixiao watched nervously, and she found that Yang Ling seemed to be slowly finding the flaw in the formation.

He waved his fingers lightly, and runes appeared in the air, echoing with the formation set up by Fairy Bixiao.

Countless array patterns were arranged and combined in the air, creating billions of different changes in an instant.

Yang Ling's soul was dispersed, like tens of thousands of computing cores working together, calculating the combination changes of the formation, based on the experience of the "formation" secret, plus a huge amount of calculations and deductions.

As time went by, Yang Ling had unknowingly reached the core area of ​​the Starry Sky Array.

He opened his eyes, and suddenly a jade slip appeared in his hand. He waved it lightly, and the jade slip turned into a stream of light and sank directly into the core of the formation.

The next moment, the entire starry illusion array began to tremble, the starlight gradually dissipated, and the illusory scene of the array began to slowly collapse.

Fairy Bixiao stared at all this in amazement. She murmured in disbelief, "How is it possible... my starry fantasy world is just like this..."

Yang Ling turned around and smiled at Fairy Bixiao: "Fellow Daoist Bixiao's formation is indeed ingenious. I was just lucky enough to break it."

When Fairy Bixiao heard this, she became even more unconvinced and said unhappily, "If you lose, you lose. There's no need for you to pretend to be lucky..."

“Well then.” Yang Ling smiled slightly and said indifferently: “Daoyou Bixiao, you lose this competition again.

So, do you want to continue?"

Fairy Bixiao's cheeks flushed slightly, her heart was filled with shame and anger, but she didn't want to behave too badly in front of Yang Ling.

She bit her lower lip tightly and was about to speak, but she heard Fairy Qiong Xiao beside her whispering, "Since my sister has been defeated twice, why not let me try.

Fellow Daoist Yang Ling, I just recently figured out a new formation, would you dare to crack it?"

Yang Ling looked at Fairy Qiong Xiao, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.

He knew that among the three sisters, Fairy Yunxiao was the most powerful, followed by Fairy Qiongxiao, and Fairy Bixiao was the weakest... Now that he had defeated Bixiao, there was naturally no reason for him to back down in front of Fairy Qiongxiao.

Thinking of this, he smiled slightly and answered frankly: "Since Fellow Daoist Qiongxiao is willing to compete, there is no reason for me to refuse.

Fellow Daoist, please set up the formation."

Fairy Qiongxiao nodded and directly presented a formation diagram. With a slight wave of her finger, the formation diagram turned into a stream of light and flew towards the sky above the East China Sea.

In an instant, the wind and clouds over the entire East China Sea changed, and a huge formation slowly unfolded under the gaze of everyone.

"This formation is called the 'Positive and Negative Yin and Yang Five Elements Formation'. It not only contains the mystery of the mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements, but also incorporates the mystery of the transformation of yin and yang. It is unpredictable and powerful...

Fellow Daoist Yang Ling, please be careful when entering the formation. If you encounter any danger, just let me open the formation."

Fairy Qiongxiao reminded seriously, obviously very confident in her own formation.

Yang Ling did not answer, but stood outside the formation, carefully observing the operation of the formation. Although he had not yet entered the formation, he could already feel the complexity and exquisiteness of this formation, which was far beyond the Starry Sky Formation just now.

However, he did not show any intention of retreating. Instead, he was faintly excited and thrilled.

This was the first time he had such an experience of discussing the art of formation without any scruples, without any hatred or interests mixed in.

After taking a deep breath, Yang Ling turned into a ray of rainbow light and fell directly into the formation.

Fairy Qiongxiao stood in one of the core areas of the formation, her eyes fixed on Yang Ling, unable to tell in her heart whether it was anticipation or something else.

After Yang Ling entered the formation, he immediately appeared in a lush forest.

The surrounding trees were tall and straight, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, a scene full of vitality. He was moved, this was obviously the "wood" element in the five elements, which meant that the starting point of the formation was wood attribute.

Without much thought, Yang Ling drew out a long sword, hummed softly, and the sword light was like water, pointing straight into the depths of the forest.

The sword is a metal tool, which conforms to the principle of "metal overcomes wood" among the five elements.

However, as soon as the tip of the sword touched the forest, Yang Ling's body felt a strong suction force.

The next moment, his vision suddenly changed, and he found himself in an underwater world. Surrounded by endless water, bubbles boiling in his ears, fish swimming in front of him, he realized that he had come to the "water" element in the five elements.

This time, Yang Ling did not take action immediately, but pondered for a moment and decided to try to use the earth attribute to restrain the water attribute.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, forming seals with his hands, reciting the spell in his mind, trying to summon the power of earth.

However, when he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find himself standing in a sea of ​​​​burning fire.

The flames are raging and the heat is unbearable - this is the fire element among the five elements.

Yang Ling frowned, his calculations were obviously wrong.

He was unwilling to stay in the sea of ​​fire any longer, so he quickly cast a spell and summoned torrential rain in an attempt to use water to conquer fire.

However, as soon as the rain fell, his figure disappeared in the sea of ​​fire again. When he appeared again, he was in a mine full of crystal ores and echoing the sound of metal knocking. This was the "gold" link in the five elements.

A bitter smile appeared on Yang Ling's face. He realized that this "positive and negative yin and yang five elements formation" was not as simple as the simple mutual generation and restraint of the five elements.

This formation seemed to counter his actions in an unexpected way every time he tried to break it.

He took a deep breath and did not rush to break the formation. Instead, he calmed down, closed his eyes again, and began to sense the operation of the formation, trying to find a clue of pattern from these seemingly chaotic changes.

Time passed quietly as Yang Ling was lost in thought. His consciousness wandered in the formation, silently pondering the role of the five elements in the formation.

First of all, this formation is both offensive and defensive, and can automatically adjust the output of positive and negative five elements' forces according to the enemy's attributes and attack methods, forming the best defense or counterattack strategy.

Secondly, the formation can adapt to changes - the positive and negative forces of the five elements can be freely converted within the formation, allowing the formation to adapt to various combat environments and opponents.

In addition, the positive and negative five elements forces within this formation should be able to transform into each other, forming an energy cycle, which can theoretically circulate infinitely unless the formation is forcibly destroyed by external forces.

Yang Ling was in the formation, like an insect trapped in a spider web. No matter how he struggled, he seemed unable to find the clue to freedom.

He frowned and tried various ways to break the formation, but all ended in failure.

Outside the formation, Fairy Bixiao watched Yang Ling trying and failing in the formation, and couldn't help but admire him:

"Second sister's formation is really amazing. Look at how arrogant this disciple of the human sect is! Don't you think so, eldest sister?"

Seeing the smug look on her face when she spoke, someone who didn't know her would have thought that the formation was set up by her.

Fairy Yunxiao did not speak. She stared at Yang Ling with deep eyes.

"Sister, do you think Yang Ling can break the formation?" Bi Xiao asked curiously.

Fairy Yunxiao shook her head slightly, her voice calm but with some certainty: "It is very difficult. Qiongxiao's formation has integrated the ultimate of yin and yang transformation and the five elements. Unless Yang Ling can comprehend the secret of this formation, it will be impossible to break it."

Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Yang Ling's forehead, and his consciousness kept wandering in the formation like a butterfly that had lost its way.

Suddenly, a sense of enlightenment arose in his heart.

Yes, this formation is called the "Positive and Negative Yin and Yang Five Elements Formation". The power of the five elements is indeed mysterious, but the real key should be the power of Yin and Yang.

The mutual generation and restraint of the five elements is only the superficial manifestation of the formation, while the power of yin and yang is the core force that maintains this formation.

Yang Ling closed his eyes and immersed his mind in the flow of power around him. He felt the subtle balance of yin and yang. This power appeared and disappeared in the formation, like the alternation of night and day, constantly circulating.

He took a deep breath, relaxed his body and mind, and stopped thinking about how to use the power of the five elements to break the formation. Instead, he tried to use the theory of yin and yang to deduce this formation.

As time went by, a confident smile gradually appeared on Yang Ling's face.

His hands began to dance slowly, as if he was painting an invisible scroll. Around his body, the yin and yang energies began to blend and rotate, forming the prototype of a Tai Chi diagram.

Yang Ling silently recited the secret of the word "fight" in his heart, and the Tai Chi diagram rotated under his feet, forming a huge yin-yang fish pattern.

Under the influence of this pattern, the entire formation seemed to resonate, the power of yin and yang began to feed back, and the power of the five elements also shook.

"break!"

Yang Ling's tongue burst into spring thunder and a loud shout burst out from his mouth.

In an instant, the entire formation was struck by lightning, and the power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements began to reverse. A flaw appeared in the originally tight formation.

Yang Ling took advantage of the situation and moved in. He shuttled through the formation and successfully reached the core area of ​​the formation and stood in front of Fairy Qiongxiao.

Fairy Qiongxiao stared at Yang Ling in front of her, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

After a long time, she looked at Yang Ling deeply and said slowly: "Daoyou is at a high level, and your attainments in formations are far superior to mine. I am convinced of my defeat.

After saying that, she waved her hand lightly, and the entire formation disappeared like a dream bubble, turning into a small formation diagram and returning to her hands.

Yang Ling smiled slightly, just in time to see the expression of Fairy Bixiao in the distance change from complacency to astonishment, with her face full of disbelief.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and said jokingly, "How about it, are you convinced now?"
