This made Wang Ying, Luo Bai and the other three feel somewhat ashamed of themselves. From the moment they had entered the small world, they had secretly collected the Spiritual Qi Points, but that was when they had entered the inner courtyard and prepared to use it when they entered the pagoda. They never thought that Gu Lin would be willing to convert his Spiritual Qi into Saint Force to help them increase their cultivation base.

He waved his hand and said, "It's good that you've succeeded. Now that we're considered grasshoppers on a rope, coupled with the gathering of experts in the Endless City, it will be a good thing for our group to obtain an increase in your strength. After all, wanting to snatch the strength of the 'Ancient Treasure's Key' is extremely important."

With Wang Ying, Luo Bai, and the others' strength, as well as their newly refined life spirit artifacts and demonified physiques, even if they ran into people from the Li family, as long as they weren't at the half-step sage realm, they had the qualifications to fight back.

"Right now, we have already refined this Lifesoul Treasure. Even if we meet those experts at the Great Circle of the Spirit Gathering Realm from before, they wouldn't be able to shake us." After all, raising one's strength had great benefits for them. With strength, one would have the qualification to enter the Inner Academy. Once one entered the Inner Academy, the resources one could obtain would naturally be much better than entering the Outer Academy.

With your current strength, there is no need for you to fear a perfect Spirit Gathering expert. However, when you encounter a half-Sage expert, you still won't be able to resist at all. And in the Boundless City, there are probably a lot of half-step Saints. When Gu Lin heard this, he pondered for a moment before continuing, "Half-step sage realm experts are far from being comparable to peak Spirit Gathering realm experts. They can already use some of the techniques of the sage realm, so its might is needless to say.

When they heard his words, the joyous expression on Wang Ying, Luo Bai, and the others' faces disappeared. Soon after, they nodded and said with a bitter smile, "Indeed, if they were facing a half-step Saint realm expert, not to mention the four of them, even if they were to double, they would still not be a match."

"I wonder if any of you have heard of some ancient rune formations that have the effect of increasing one's battle power?" Gu Lin suddenly said after pausing for a moment.

"Hmm?" He had heard of them before. However, most of those spirit formations had been lost during the Ancient Era. Thus, there were very few of these spirit formations in existence right now. All of them were like family heirlooms.

"Hehe, as long as someone knows what's good, I have an ancient rune formation for the four of you to cultivate with." Hehe, as long as someone knows what's good, I have an ancient rune formation for the four of you to cultivate with. Gu Lin said with a chuckle.

"What? You have an Ancient Rune Formation on you?" That was an ancient formation, not some cabbages on the street. If they were able to master an ancient formation, then their battle power would definitely be on a whole new level. However, they never would have thought that Gu Lin would actually have an ancient formation on him.

This kind of ancient formation was naturally not his, but that of Old Fu's. Currently, in this small world, even the Inner Academy had sent people to participate in it, and if one did not use a little trick, it was likely that one would not even know how one died. And right now, the only people who could be trusted were Wang Yingbai and the other four.

This formation is called the "Four Spirits War Formation" and is created by several supreme elders of the demon race. It has a total of two hundred runes on it, and if you train it properly, you will definitely benefit greatly in the future. "Gu Lin's body moved and appeared in front of Wang Ying, Luo Bai and the other three, and a white bamboo scroll immediately appeared in the air. His left hand, under the radiance emitted by the bamboo scroll, lightly touched their foreheads, and the white bamboo scroll instantly emitted a dazzling light, as waves of profound characters followed Gu Lin's finger and entered their minds.

After about two hours, Wang Ying, Luo Bai, and the others once again opened their eyes. Their eyes were filled with excitement, because the ancient formation that Gu Lin had given them was definitely not an ordinary one, at least it was a spirit rank battle formation, and there were also people with a spirit, sage, divine, or four ranks in the swordplay continent. This kind of formation could not exist in the outer courtyard of the Four Great Sacred Academies, it could only exist in the inner courtyard, and it would not be easily taken out.

Now that this formation had been casually delivered by Gu Lin into their hands, a trace of deep thought appeared in the eyes of the four of them for a moment. And now that this formation was casually delivered into their hands, a trace of deep thought appeared in the eyes of the four of them.

Gu Lin merely waved his hand at the gazes that the four of them shot at him. He definitely couldn't reveal Old Fu's secret, so he returned to his seat cross-legged and said in a soft voice, "We don't know what will happen in the future. Even if we were to separate in the future, as long as you don't provoke any existences that you shouldn't provoke, this formation is enough for you to stay in the small world for one year before the four Saint Sect's selection."

Hearing this, a special emotion appeared in all four of their eyes. "Gu Lin, thank you very much. We won't say anymore. From now on, our lives are yours!"

What do you mean 'mine'? We are only 20 years old, right? There is still a long road ahead of us: "You all should first comprehend the wonders of this four spirit battle formation. With our current speed, it will take us at most another day to reach the Endless City, where experts gather. Hearing this, Gu Lin also laughed.

"En!" Wang Ying, Luo Bai and the rest also nodded their heads heavily. After which, they shut their eyes tightly once again as they tried to sense the wondrous aspects that the "Four Spirit Formation" had brought with it.
