In the gigantic empty region of the Lost Clan, many powerful Renhuangs of the Lost Clan gathered.

Sikong Nan and a few elders of the Lost Clan were also there. They were standing to one side and looking straight ahead. There were nine Renhuangs at the same cultivation Plane standing there. They were all eighth-tier Renhuangs with frightening auras.

​​

Among them, there was another white-haired figure. It was Ye Futian.

After cultivating in the secret zone paradise for a few days, Ye Futian wanted to attempt to improve the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. This was their first experiment.

The Lost Clan had a high opinion of Ye Futian. This might cause the ability of their clan to reach a new level. The cultivators were naturally exceptionally serious. Sikong Nan and the other senior members were all present.

"Seniors, please set up the matrix," Ye Futian said. The nine great Renhuangs stepped forward. They stood in the sky in different locations. The aura of the Great Path burst forth from their bodies as divine light shone brightly. Powerful wills emanated from their bodies.

Instantly, illusory figures of the ancient gods appeared and loomed over the sky. They formed some sort of resonance under the influence of the wills of the Renhuangs. Then, they weaved together, and an enclosed space was formed.

A solemn sound, similar to the rhythm of the Great Path, echoed. The space suddenly became exceptionally grim. Very quickly, the Battle Matrix of the Rocks took shape. A terrifying power erupted from the battle matrix, sealing off this part of the sky.

Ye Futian stood in the battle matrix, wielding a long spear. Divine light of the Great Path circled around him, and terrifying battle intent emanated from the long spear. The sound of the Great Path also roared from within his body. Ye Futian's figure flashed, and he charged out like a bolt of lightning. He was like a god of war as he stabbed straight out with his long spear.

Bang. With a loud explosion, the illusory figures exploded and shattered. The long spear struck a point on the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. In an instant, the cultivators who had set up the Battle Matrix of the Rocks all closed their eyes. Their wills resonated, followed by the divine light of the Great Path shining. All of the defensive power of the battle matrix seemed to gather at the point that Ye Futian had struck, causing the long spear to be unable to pierce through.

This was the strength of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. The defensive power of the battle matrix could be focused on one region, causing it to be as indestructible as a rock.

"Try attacking," said Ye Futian. A cultivator immediately lifted his hand and struck out. A gigantic palm strike charged towards Ye Futian. However, at the same time, a flaw surfaced on the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. In the direction of the cultivator who was attacking, a huge hole appeared. A cultivator attacking directly disrupted the balance of the matrix.

Bang. Ye Futian's long spear struck out and shattered the palm strike. He looked towards the battle matrix and then stepped out. He also merged with the battle matrix and became a part of it.

Ye Futian waved his arm, and the guqin strings of the Great Path before him materialized into a guqin. He played some notes. As the music flowed, everyone's hearts seemed to skip and beat according to the rhythm. Each and every musical note had the power to influence their hearts.

When Ye Futian inherited the teachings of Shenyin the Great, he also received many songs that the Great Emperor had created. Even though the songs were not as good as the Divine Melody Song of the Lost Divine that he created, they still had their merits. After all, Shenyin the Great was the top Rhythmic Sorcerer of his time.

The songs that he created were undoubtedly great.

A song was played as the musical notes danced around in the air. The sound of the guqin was crisp and melodious. It contained a magical power, which allowed the cultivators to resonate with it through their spiritual energy. They seemed to have become one with the music.

Gradually, the music enveloped every inch of the space. In the battle matrix, the spiritual energy of all the cultivators merged with the music. Their wills resonated with the beat of the music.

In the distance, Sikong Nan and the rest of the cultivators were observing the happenings in the battle matrix. Their gazes changed as they sensed the transformation which occurred in the matrix. They could sense a rhythmic storm of the guqin. This rhythmic storm was a formless storm of Rhythmic Sorcery. It surrounded the entire Battle Matrix of the Rocks and became one with it. It was as though the music had completely merged into the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. The cultivators were astonished by this occurrence.

"I heard that he has received the teachings of the ancient Shenyin the Great?" asked an elder of the Lost Clan.

"Hmm. Rumor has it that Shenyin the Great was the top Rhythmic Sorcerer of his time," Sikong Nan explained. "There are relatively few cultivators in the world who are proficient in the Way of Rhythm. There are even fewer of them who can cultivate the Way up to a high level. It's rare for someone to have such attainment in music. Ye Futian must have been very good in Rhythmic Sorcery even before he obtained the inheritance of Shenyin the Great."

The other cultivators nodded in agreement. They continued to listen to the music quietly. The Battle Matrix of the Rocks seemed to have become even more complete with the support of the music. Everything cohered into a unified whole.

As the music grew more and more intense, the spiritual energy unleashed by the nine cultivators also intensified. The divine light shone brilliantly. The aura circulating in the Battle Matrix of the Rocks became even more frightening. The ancient gods were all shimmering with bright golden light. The cultivators in the battle matrix seemed to have lost their sense of self and joined together harmoniously.

Rumble. Frightening aura spread outwards. The various cultivators moved at the same time. They looked ahead, and their movements were synchronized. The figures of the ancient gods raised their hands at the same time and sent palm strikes directly downwards. Intense rumbling of the Great Path could be heard. In the Battle Matrix of the Rocks, various palm prints appeared and came crashing downwards.

This scene caused Sikong Nan and the other cultivators to have sharp gazes. They seemed to have witnessed the prototype of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks unleashing a powerful offensive technique.

Powerful aura still emanated from within the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. Then, a second wave of attacks burst forth. The ancient gods came to life. All of them sent out offensive techniques simultaneously. The might of their attacks was astonishing.

Gradually, as they kept on attacking, their attacks seemed to not be as in sync as before. It appeared somewhat chaotic.

"Did it fail?" mumbled the elders of the Lost Clan over where Sikong Nan was when they saw this scene.

The surrounding cultivators stared at the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. Sikong Nan narrowed his gaze slightly. He shook his head and said, "No. Although the attacks appear chaotic, they are, in fact, following the same rhythm. Wherever an attack from an ancient god in one place weakens, the attacks in other locations will grow stronger."

The attacks landed time and time again. Suddenly, within the Battle Matrix of the Rocks, a gigantic palm print appeared. Its might was astonishing. It seemed to burst forth from one of the figures of the ancient gods. The body of the ancient god was dazzling from head to toe and contained world-dominating might. The will of the cultivators had all merged into the figure of this ancient god, causing awe-inspiring attack power to burst forth.

When the attack landed, the heavens and earth seemed to collapse. It was far superior to any of the previous attacks.

"It is a success," mumbled Sikong Nan when he saw this scene. The Battle Matrix of the Rocks had been fully integrated. It was not only complete in terms of defense but also attack. They could gather the power of the battle matrix in different locations whenever they wanted and unleash a unified attack.

They looked at the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. It was now complete. Compared to before, it had undergone a huge transformation.

In the battle matrix, the eighth-tier Renhuangs also sensed this. They were all somewhat excited. Right then, their wills dispersed, and the battle matrix immediately dissipated. The sound of the guqin stopped playing, and the Battle Matrix of the Rocks disappeared along with it, leaving Ye Futian and the nine Renhuangs standing there.

When the Renhuangs looked at Ye Futian, their eyes sparkled with astonishment. They did not expect the experiment to be successful. Just now, they could clearly sense that they were more unified than any of their previous attempts. The resonance they felt made them feel as though the nine of them were a single entity.

"Renhuang Ye." Sikong Nan and the rest smiled as they walked up to Ye Futian. Sikong Nan said, "I did not expect us to succeed on our first trial. Your music is indeed marvelous."

"We're still far from succeeding," Ye Futian disagreed while shaking his head. This caused the rest of them to be stupefied. They were still far from success?

Just now, hadn't they succeeded?

Ye Futian expounded, "Just now, the nine cultivators did it with my music as the medium. However, in order for it to be called a success, Seniors from the Lost Clan need to be able to achieve the resonance on their own without the guidance of the music. Otherwise, you have to always rely on it."

"Since that's the case, then Renhuang Ye can be the crux of the Battle Matrix of the Rocks," said Sikong Nan with a smile. However, he also understood from Ye Futian's words that they still had a long way to go. Ye Futian's idea was plausible.
