Chapter 75

"Cannot let him leave alive!" Six elegantly dressed men and women shouted loudly, fully aware that the great formation had already been broken. Without the concealment and protection of the great formation, they would soon be discovered... and if Ji Ning managed to escape, the news would spread quickly, and they would be found as well.

The mystic formation banners must be reclaimed! Ji Ning must be killed!

"Kill!"

"Kill him." A large number of servants rushed towards Ji Ning in a frenzy.

Ji Ning directly stored the formation banners into his storage magical treasure. At the same time, the magical treasure wings behind him flapped, and he immediately shot through the air. Endless scorching flames instantly descended, enveloping the servants and burning them, causing them to scream in agony.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Three figures from the crowd of servants transformed into illusions and pounced directly at Ji Ning.

"Xian Tian beings?" Ji Ning immediately identified that these three were Xian Tian beings. "It seems that the old bandit cultivator has quite a few Xian Tian beings under his command."

"Kill him."

"The master has ordered, kill him."

These three Xian Tian beings were filled with murderous intent in their eyes. They were all Bo Zishan's servants, controlled by poison, and dared not disobey Bo Zishan's orders. They transformed into streaks of light, attacking Ji Ning from different directions. However, Ji Ning used the Wind-Wing Escape Technique to directly confront a fat, bearded man.

"Roar." The man wielded a large hammer.

Whoosh!

A flash of sword light, and the man tumbled to the ground, clutching his chest and convulsing, his blood staining the ground. In a single move, Ji Ning's sword had pierced his heart!

"Brat." The man with the hooked nose roared as he approached, but a flash of sword light immediately cut off half of his head, killing him on the spot. This frightened the third Xian Tian being, an old man, who immediately retreated in terror.

...

The endless flames descended, instantly killing two Xian Tian beings and scaring off another. This made the six men and women look at each other with grim faces.

"What terrifying speed!"

"His sword technique far surpasses any of us; no wonder he could kill our eldest brother."

Each of them instantly realized that even if they all attacked together, they would likely die.

At this moment, Ji Ning was like a reaper, using the endless flames to burn the servants while hunting the Xian Tian beings. Bo Zishan's subordinates, including servants, spirit beasts, and disciples, numbered over a dozen Xian Tian beings.

"Jiao Long Dao Bing!" The youngest and most handsome young man among the six suddenly shouted in a shrill voice.

"Jiao Long Dao Bing."

The other five senior disciples immediately understood and roared in anger. Soon, black armor appeared on their bodies, and all six were clad in black armor.

"Rumble~~" It seemed as if the entire mountain was moving. In reality, the mountain had long been hollowed out, with a main cavern and numerous smaller caves. After all, a million mortals had been tortured here, and the number of caves required to house them was vast.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Like rain from the sky, a dense crowd of soldiers in deep green armor began to emerge from the caves. Each soldier's armor was adorned with ancient and complex runes, drawing power from the heavens and earth.

"Dao Bing!" Ji Ning's expression changed as he saw the large number of soldiers leaping from the numerous cave openings, instantly recognizing them as Dao Bing!

"And they are even stronger than the 'Red Armor Guards' of my Ji Clan." Ji Ning, with his high standards, could feel that the power drawn by the runes on the armor of these Dao Bing was even more astonishing.

Tens of thousands of Dao Bing descended from the sky.

Over a dozen Xian Tian beings in black armor also emerged.

"Kill, kill as many as you can." Ji Ning knew he could not let them unite. He immediately flapped his wings, soaring nearly a mile away, while the Dao Bing, being mostly Hou Tian, moved much slower.

"Die, all of you!"

Ji Ning, with red spots on his face due to the poison, went completely mad. In an instant, overwhelming flames and endless frost descended, sweeping in two directions. Ji Ning was doing his best to control the water and fire.

"Be careful."

"Form the formation!"

Tens of thousands of Dao Bing from all directions formed groups of nine, drawing power from the heavens and earth. A dragon-shaped shadow faintly appeared above them. Facing the scorching flames and freezing frost, those who formed the formation mostly managed to withstand it, while those who did not were instantly killed. Especially those in the center of the flames and frost, where the heat and cold alternated, even those in the formation were killed.

"Jiao Long Formation!"

The dozen Xian Tian beings in black armor also wanted to join the formation.

"Bad." Ji Ning had seen nine Xian Tian beings use Dao Bing armor in the Water Mansion and would not let these dozen succeed.

"Water and Fire Lotus, crush them all!" Ji Ning instantly formed nine Water and Fire Lotuses, enveloping nine of them.

The Water and Fire Lotuses appeared out of nowhere, with one fire leaf and one water leaf, rotating in opposite directions to crush.

"Ahh!" The woman with a scorpion on her shoulder screamed as she was torn to pieces.

"Quick."

"Form the formation."

Even as they tried to form the formation, six of the nine were killed, and the other three were severely injured. This shocked the other Xian Tian beings... this technique was too terrifying. From such a distance, he had simultaneously killed six Xian Tian beings. Normally, Xian Tian beings could not attack from a distance because they could not control their magical treasures for long-range attacks.

The six who died were unlucky. They were not afraid of Ji Ning controlling water and fire, but they did not expect him to use the 'Water and Fire Lotus' containing the true meaning of the Dao. If they had known, they would have prepared a protective Dao talisman beforehand and would not have been killed instantly.

"Form the formation!" The handsome young man's black armor instantly displayed runes, connecting with the dragon-shaped shadows of the ordinary Dao Bing, forming a single entity.

In a moment, the handsome young man and a thousand ordinary Dao Bing were connected, with a dragon-shaped shadow appearing above them.

"Form the formation."

"Form the formation."

Each Xian Tian being immediately joined with the Dao Bing, some leading a thousand, others leading five hundred. Although the maximum was a thousand, many had already been killed by Ji Ning.

"Unfortunately, the Dao Bing are less than nine thousand; otherwise, they could have combined into a dragon and easily killed him." Eight dragon-shaped shadows appeared in the sky, formed by eight Xian Tian beings and thousands of Dao Bing.

"Even if they cannot form a dragon, he must die."

...

In a secret room deep in the mountain.

In the ancient cauldron, green flames burned, and a blood-red banner floated, with countless ghosts howling silently and fighting fiercely.

Bo Zishan was sitting cross-legged, his face extremely grim.

"This Ji Ning actually broke my great formation." Bo Zishan was both anxious and angry. He had been fleeing and trying to refine this powerful magical treasure to turn the tide. Without the concealment of the formation, he could not hide. Moreover, he still had a large number of ghosts to refine into the banner. He was trying to control the process and stop, even if it meant abandoning a large number of ghosts.

However, refining a magical treasure in such a sinful environment was extremely dangerous, and a single mistake could lead to a backlash. He had to be extremely cautious, and even stopping required carefully killing the unrefined ghosts before he could stop. If he forced it, he would suffer a backlash.

Stopping required time.

"Master, the Dao Bing are less than nine thousand." A man transformed from a spirit beast in the mountain's interior shouted anxiously.

"What!" Bo Zishan, who was trying to suppress his anxiety, was suddenly alarmed. "The Dao Bing are less than nine thousand? Less than nine thousand, they cannot combine into a dragon. With Ji Ning's strength, he can escape."

The blood-red banner suddenly trembled, and countless ghosts were trying to break free.

"Bad."

Bo Zishan, suppressing his anxiety, knew that if he failed, the ghosts would turn on him, and he would likely die today. A small bag appeared in his hand, like a brocade pouch. The small bag released a black coffin, which landed with a thud.

The coffin lid opened, and a terrifying aura spread. A large hand covered in black hair grabbed the edge of the coffin and sat up. It was a black-haired zombie with glowing green eyes.

Hiss.

The black-haired zombie landed on the ground, surrounded by visible black mist, which was corpse poison. Even Xian Tian beings would be poisoned to death if they inhaled it. This zombie was one of Bo Zishan's last resorts, painstakingly refined from the body of a Zifu cultivator.

"Go, kill him." Bo Zishan ordered. The zombie, neither alive nor dead, had a certain level of intelligence. It recognized Bo Zishan's disciples and could quickly identify the enemy. The black-haired zombie was comparable to a Zifu cultivator and was very dangerous.

"Hmm." The black-haired zombie grunted, took a step, and leaped out of the nearly hundred-meter-deep cave.
