Chapter 2660 - A New Storm

Shenxi Tianxi couldn't believe it.

What stunned him was that, after launching the first wave of nova source attacks, those hundreds of sword-ships once again changed into an even more terrifying formation! They used the ether-class astralships as the center and tip, while the other astralships were so close they were almost sticking together.

In that way, hundreds of sword-ships actually combined into a conical shape, as if they had been integrated into one giant sword that was even larger than an infinitum-class astralship.

Even more ridiculously, they were all using the same nova source, so the layer of nova source on the ships’ surface merged together, mutually protecting and enhancing each other! The giant sword conical formation directly made everyone in the Second Exterminatus Army tremble with fear.

"What on earth is that?"

They wanted to learn to do it too, but they couldn't learn it at all!

The other side were all giant swords and could only combine because they shared a shape. But the Second Exterminatus Army was filled with heads, eyeballs, gears, warships, and various giant beasts, so what could they pile up into?

They could only combine into a meat shield and take beatings, but they might just harm each other in the process instead. When the ancestors of the Swordgod Lin Clan built their astralships, they abandoned individualism and decided to build only swords, showing admirable long-term vision. The sword-shaped astralships weren’t perfect, with fast speed and strong offensive power but poor defense and susceptibility to breaking. Like the Swordgod Lin Clan, the advantages and disadvantages were evident.

But... when they protected each other with their swords, those shortcomings completely disappeared.

Chase the defeated enemy!

After defeating the opponent with one sword, Lin Xiao remained calm and composed, and after forming Sword Formation One, the sword-ships moved together. "Control the pace and don't fall behind!"

"Yes!"

"Protect your friends around you!"

"Yes!"

Although they had never performed such a large-scale formation combination before, it wasn’t uncommon for them to combine a dozen or so sword-ships. Lin Xiao's eyes turned bloodshot as he took a deep breath. "Let these people taste the art that our ancestors honed in the starry sky tens of millions of times. Attack!"

All the sword-ships were activated. This time, the giant conical formation rotated and charged forward like a meat grinder, emitting deafening thunderous roars as it rushed toward the most densely populated area of the enemy's astralships—the ebons’ astralship fleet! They were right in the middle and there were about two hundred of them. Among them was the Ebonfiend Minor, an ether-class ship. It was controlled by Shenxi Tianxi, and it was almost identical in appearance to the Ebonfiend, except smaller.

The giant swords spun and spun.

"What’s happening?" Everyone in the fleet was terrified. They also used astralships in combination, but the combination achieved by the Swordgod Lin Clan was beyond imagination. The ebons were also spread throughout the Infinitum Mundus, but there were very few pirates that dared to hijack their astralships. Throughout history, they had never needed to band together! Now, the first time they encountered it, they were frightened out of their wits.

"Spread out!" Shenxi Tianxi had no confidence at all that the Ebonfiend Minor could forcibly block the impact of the Lin Clan’s giant conical formation! As for the other astralships, how could they gather in time to confront the Lin Clan head-on?

A portion instinctively dodged and even the Ebonfiend Minor could only avoid its edge! Under Shenxi Tianxi's command, all the astralships of the Second Exterminatus Army were pushed to their fullest extent, dispersing like birds. Their advantage of being ‘empty’ was fully utilized, and their agility was astonishing.

Even so, there was still a portion that couldn't escape the grinding of the Lin Clan's giant swords. The Ebonfiend Minor escaped, but more than thirty ebon astralships were blasted in succession by the Lin Clan and they exploded on the spot! Among them, the astral gods couldn't escape. At least thirty thousand of them had been split apart by the impact, and a small portion of them even died in battle.

It was historically rare for astralships to directly kill astral gods. The Lin Clan's ability in astralship warfare was stunning to say the least!

Many of the Second Exterminatus Army's newly rising killing intent was once again dispersed, leaving countless people dumbfounded.

Sword Formation One directly pierced through the Second Exterminatus Army, then turned around to face them again and continue its charge.

"Spread out! Spread out!" Shenxi Tianxi's face drastically changed and he shouted those words with great humiliation. Everyone present was afraid of death, but they were even more afraid that the astralships passed down by their ancestors would be destroyed. Not to mention maintaining a formation, they each ran faster than the last.

The vast starry sky was what ultimately saved them. Once they got far enough away and dispersed far enough, the efficiency of the Lin Clan's fleet in killing them indeed significantly decreased. Over the next several consecutive charges, eight sanctuary-class ships had been broken. However, the Second Exterminatus Army had still been scattered and become a mob, all frightened by the gigantic monster that was the Lin Clan!

"Heh heh, I'm laughing. Is that it?" The entire Lin Clan burst into laughter. "Let's go!"

What they wanted was to meet up. Since they couldn't hit their opponents and the opponents had scattered so far away from each other, the Lin Clan didn't need to consume a large amount of nova source.

After their final charge, they dispersed again, entered the starry sky using different formations, and departed toward the sun.

"Chase!" Shenxi Tianxi's expression twisted and he could only call on the ragtag group to chase after them again. But this time, they were all lagging behind. They could catch up, but they couldn't break through the tactics of the Lin Clan, so they dared not act.

"Right, is the senior from the ancestral world inside the opponent's astralship...?" Shenxi Tianxi took out a transmission stone. He lowered his head, grit his teeth and asked, "Senior, are you there?"

"I'm just enjoying the show." A gloomy voice came from the other side. When the lighting and shadows brightened a little, one could see that it was Lin Jianxing.

"Senior is joking. How could we expect this?" Shenxi Tianxi helplessly said.

The Lin Clan’s final struggle? What a huge joke!

"Your jokes aren’t just this. There's an even bigger one on the other side," Lin Jianxing said.

"So we need Senior's help even more. May I ask where Senior is?" Shenxi Tianxi asked.

"Me?" The other person's mouth curled up and said, "I'm next to Lin Xiao."

Shenxi Tianxi's eyes lit up and he was shocked. He quickly said, "It seems that we have an opportunity to cooperate."
