Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

For the first time since Lin Yan began managing Flame Sovereign Blessed Land, a new Desolate Beast species Golden Crow had been born from an environment he had personally created.

Illuminating the surroundings was only one of the Golden Crow’s abilities. Its true strength lay in its innate ability—Ten Suns Soaring in the Sky.

The power of several Three-Legged Golden Crows did not simply add together. Each additional Golden Crow multiplied the strength of the others. Once ten gathered, ten blazing suns would rise across the sky, carrying enough power to incinerate mountains and boil seas.

The Sunflame Valley Formation possessed three major abilities. The first was to nurture Golden Crows by combining ordinary Fire Crows with the miniature suns produced by Sunflame Valley, steadily increasing the number of this new Desolate Beast species.

The second was to manage the vast ecosystem surrounding Sunflame Valley. The nine Fusang Trees, hundreds of thousands of Fire Crows, newly born Golden Crows, and thirty-six volcanoes were all connected through the formation, allowing fire energy and resources to circulate between them.

As this cycle continued, the entire Molten Flame Mountains would gradually develop into a giant Flame Path resource point.

The third and most important ability was offense. Several Golden Crows could activate Ten Suns Soaring in the Sky while drawing power from Sunflame Valley and the nine Fusang Trees. Once the full strength of the formation erupted, it could easily kill a peak Rank Seven Gu Immortal.

Unlike Raging Fire, the Sunflame Valley Formation was not permanently rooted within Flame Sovereign Blessed Land. Sunflame Valley could be moved, while the surrounding formation could be quickly assembled elsewhere using Formation Flag Immortal Gu and numerous supporting mortal Gu.

Moving something of this scale consumed considerable time and immortal essence. Even so, Lin Yan could bring the entire formation with him whenever he expected to face a powerful enemy.

After completing the Sunflame Valley Formation, Lin Yan flew east toward the Thunderous Hills. Divine Firmament Thunder Pool had accumulated vast quantities of thunder plasma over the years, yet much of that power had remained unused.

The recent deductions beneath the Thousand Wishes Tree had finally given Lin Yan a way to draw out its full potential.

He arranged dozens of Thunder Path immortal materials throughout the Thunderous Hills, while nine Ancient Thunder Marsh Dragons formed a ring around Thunder Pool. Thousands of Thunder Path Gu connected them, drawing the lightning scattered across the mountains toward the pool.

As the final connection formed, thunder shook the entire eastern region. Golden-blue lightning raced across the Thunderous Hills, linking every formation node before converging upon Divine Firmament Thunder Pool.

The third Rank Six Immortal Gu Formation was complete—Divine Firmament Thunder Pool Formation!

At its center, the golden-blue Thunder Pool churned violently. Thunder plasma rose and fell like enormous waves, while countless bolts descended from the clouds, forming a vast web of lightning between heaven and earth.

Several indistinct figures began taking shape within the dazzling sea of thunder. At first, they appeared as shapeless masses of condensed lightning. As more thunder plasma gathered, heads, limbs, and bodies gradually emerged.

Their bodies were deep blue, their expressions solemn, and golden-blue lightning flowed continuously across their skin.

They closely resembled the beings created by the Thunder Path Earth Calamity—Mystic Thunder Phantoms.

Their resemblance to Mystic Thunder Phantoms was no coincidence. Lin Yan had personally faced that Earth Calamity and carefully studied its structure afterward. Using his Thunder Path attainment and Zhen Yuanzi’s resource point development methods, he recreated its form through Divine Firmament Thunder Pool.

These humanoid creatures were not true Mystic Thunder Phantoms born from heaven and earth. They were entirely new lightning lifeforms nurtured by the formation, and each possessed the strength of a Desolate Beast.

The Divine Firmament Thunder Pool Formation possessed five major abilities. The first continuously nurtured these lightning lifeforms, providing Lin Yan with a growing force of Desolate Beasts that could fight without fear of physical attacks.

The second connected Divine Firmament Thunder Pool, the nine Ancient Thunder Marsh Dragons, and every Thunder Path resource throughout the Thunderous Hills. Lightning and thunder plasma could now circulate between them, gradually transforming the entire eastern region into a giant Thunder Path resource point.

Its third ability drew upon both the grand formation and the humanoid lightning creatures to unleash large-scale attacks. The fourth enhanced the Thunder Pool’s healing power, allowing Lin Yan to recover from his injuries much faster whenever he cultivated within it.

However, Lin Yan valued its fifth ability above all the others.

Immortal killer move—Thunder Pool Barrier!

His previous defensive killer move protected his body directly. This killer move instead established a powerful defensive domain around him. Anyone who dared to cross its boundary would face the combined might of Divine Firmament Thunder Pool, nine Ancient Thunder Marsh Dragons, countless humanoid lightning creatures, and the entire formation.

Among all the defensive Immortal killer moves Lin Yan currently possessed, none could compare with it.

Lin Yan had originally planned to use Sunflame Valley and Divine Firmament Thunder Pool as substitutes for Rank Seven Immortal Gu when developing killer moves. Turning them into formation cores had not changed that purpose.

A Gu formation was another form of killer move. Its enormous scale simply allowed it to incorporate far more Gu, immortal materials, terrain, beasts, and plants than an ordinary killer move ever could.

Like the Sunflame Valley Formation, the Divine Firmament Thunder Pool Formation could be withdrawn using Formation Flag Immortal Gu. Whenever necessary, Lin Yan could carry it outside Flame Sovereign Blessed Land and deploy it for battle.
