Chapter 68

"Clang, clang, clang"

A sound like popping beans continuously echoed within the Golden Knife Formation.

Those golden knives struck the green shield above Zuo Daohong's body like a storm.

The green light on the shield grew increasingly dim.

Zuo Daohong's face was full of urgency. Being inside the Golden Knife Formation, he couldn't find Fang Ling's position. If this continued, the constantly appearing golden knives would slice him to pieces.

He was anxious, and Fang Ling, who was outside the Golden Knife Formation, also had a look of urgency on his face.

Half an hour had already passed, and the thirty-six golden knives had not managed to cut through Zuo Daohong's defensive talisman.

He couldn't wait any longer!

Although it was just a matter of time before the Golden Knife Formation would crush Zuo Daohong, Fang Ling was unwilling to waste this time.

After all, there were still many opponents in the Path of Life and Death, and he absolutely couldn't waste all his time on Zuo Daohong.

With a thought, Fang Ling manipulated the spell, and the thirty-six golden lights instantly merged into a five-zhang-long golden blade of light, fiercely slashing down toward Zuo Daohong's head. At the same time, the Mystic Yin Knife transformed into a black light, secretly slashing toward Zuo Daohong.

The five-zhang-long golden blade of light made Zuo Daohong's face turn pale.

He frantically poured his spiritual energy into the green shield above his head and raised the sword talisman in his hand.

The two talismans made Zuo Daohong's face even paler.

However, he didn't dare to relax, and he tightly focused on the golden blade of light.

"Crack"

The blade of light slashed down, and the shield, which was a zhang in size, instantly developed several cracks.

This crack made Zuo Daohong's heart tremble!

Fortunately, the golden blade of light was blocked.

But just as his joy was rising, a sense of danger appeared in his heart. Zuo Daohong quickly turned his head and saw a black blade shadow rapidly slashing toward him.

"Ah..."

Zuo Daohong let out a scream. Before he could react, he was directly killed by Fang Ling inside the Golden Knife Formation.

Fang Ling, who had dismantled the formation, coldly glanced at Zuo Daohong's corpse and then focused his gaze on the thirty-six golden knives arranged around.

These golden knives still emitted a cold light, but the slaughter of over twenty people had added a touch of killing intent to them.

From Fang Ling's perspective, he felt that the power of these golden knives had increased.

The lines and patterns drawn under the golden knives had already worn out in some places, but this did not affect the activation of the Golden Knife Formation. The spiritual energy Fang Ling had drawn from the tree in the middle using the Spirit Attraction Technique was still abundant.

This made Fang Ling sigh in relief. If it weren't for the Spirit Attraction Technique, this slaughter would have bankrupted him.

After leaving the Jingyang Ridge Smoke and Dust Map, Fang Ling sat on a rock and waited.

The death of Zuo Daohong and his group seemed to be the end. Fang Ling waited for half an hour, and no one came.

Probably no one else would come. With a hint of regret in his heart, he took a step forward.

"Brother, save me! If you save my life, the Xu family will definitely give you a treasure talisman!" A panicked voice suddenly came from behind.

Hearing this voice, Fang Ling was startled. He turned his head and saw a figure, like a gust of wind, rapidly approaching from a distance.

In a moment, it was right in front of Fang Ling!

At this moment, Fang Ling also clearly saw the face of the person!

Xu Lei, this person was actually Xu Lei of the Xu family!

It was important to note that as a Thunderfire Body, Xu Lei was already stronger than others, and his cultivation was at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation.

The Ninth Level of Qi Condensation was almost the highest level of cultivation for this Ascension Path.

Who was chasing him so desperately?

A thought flashed through Fang Ling's mind, and without hesitation, he turned to escape in another direction.

Although he had the Golden Knife Formation and the Jingyang Ridge Smoke and Dust Map, this did not mean he could dominate with these two items.

"Ha ha ha! Gratitude, little Xu, you're a dead man, how can you repay anyone?" A mocking voice accompanied a green light that shot over like lightning.

Seeing this green light, Fang Ling's face became even more grim.

Because under the green light, a sinister-looking如意-shaped magical tool was being wielded.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator!

This Ascension Path, which was only for cultivators above the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation, actually had a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Although Fang Ling had killed a Foundation Establishment cultivator before, it was thanks to the Jingyang Ridge Smoke and Dust Space and the Heavenly Thunder Pearl he obtained from Qing Luo.

On his own, he dared not challenge a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

"Run!"

This thought flashed through his mind, and Fang Ling activated the Golden Goose Technique, which he had mastered, taking ten-zhang steps with each step.

"Ha ha ha"

A cold laugh came from behind, and the Foundation Establishment cultivator said in a deep voice, "Where are you going? Stay here!"

With these words, over a hundred sinister fireballs suddenly appeared in front of Fang Ling and Xu Lei.

"Brother, be careful, this is Ghost Phosphorus Fire. If you touch it, you'll die!" After Xu Lei's warning, a green jade bottle flew out from his body, and several lightning bolts shot out, striking the Ghost Phosphorus Fire heading toward him.

Fang Ling had heard of Ghost Phosphorus Fire. It was a flame cultivated by evil cultivators using the bodies of the dead. Ordinary cultivators would instantly turn to ashes if they touched it.

Fang Ling, facing the dozen or so Ghost Phosphorus Fires rushing toward him, directly activated the large seal talisman he had obtained from Qing Luo.

The large seal, glowing green, collided with the Ghost Phosphorus Fire.

However, the Foundation Establishment cultivator, wielding the如意-shaped magical tool, was already blocking their path.

"You have some skills, boy, but it's a pity you met me. No matter how skilled you are, you'll have to stay here." The Foundation Establishment cultivator landed in front of Fang Ling and Xu Lei, his face dark.

He was a young man in his early twenties, with a rather honest appearance, but his tone gave off a bizarre feeling.

"Brother Fang, this demon just killed six of my clan brothers. Our only way out is to fight him!" Xu Lei, who had caught the jade bottle, said in a deep voice to Fang Ling.

At this moment, Xu Lei had lost his previous arrogance. Although his words were calm, Fang Ling could sense his deep fear.

Although Fang Ling was annoyed by the trouble Xu Lei had brought, he knew that the best choice for both of them now was to fight together.

He nodded and said, "Brother Xu, rest assured, I understand."

The Foundation Establishment cultivator chuckled and said with disdain, "Fighting together, you're still far from it."

As he spoke, he waved the gray and black如意, and a fist-sized ghost head flew out, instantly growing to a zhang in size, rushing toward Fang Ling.

At the same time, he spat out a green flame pearl, which rushed toward Xu Lei.

Before the ghost head reached him, Fang Ling felt a sinister aura rushing toward him. This cold aura made him feel almost immobile.

He mobilized all his spiritual energy to command the large seal to rush toward the ghost head and formed two sword-shaped talismans in his hands.

"Boom"

The large seal collided with the ghost head but failed to shatter it. Fang Ling even felt his connection to the large seal talisman being severed.

This discovery made Fang Ling's heart tremble. He immediately manipulated the spell, and a dark green sword light rushed toward the ghost head.

The ghost head, which was fighting the large seal, was forced back several feet. At this moment, Fang Ling regained his connection to the large seal.

Although Fang Ling had reached the Seventh Level of Qi Condensation, his spiritual energy was limited. Activating two talismans made him feel his spiritual energy rapidly depleting.

Run!

If this continued, he would definitely die.

"Five Thunder Strike!"

A fierce shout came from Xu Lei's mouth, and several lightning snakes shot toward the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator coldly snorted, and the green flame pearl spun, forming a green screen that trapped the lightning snakes.

At this moment, Xu Lei spat out a mouthful of blood and instantly transformed into a purple lightning bolt, rushing forward.

This rush covered over twenty zhang.

"Lightning Escape Technique!" The Foundation Establishment cultivator showed a hint of surprise.

Fang Ling didn't know the Lightning Escape Technique, but Xu Lei's rapid escape technique made him feel even more threatened. If the Foundation Establishment cultivator didn't chase Xu Lei, he would be in danger.

"Since you recognize the Lightning Escape Technique, you should know that I can escape at least a thousand zhang. You're just collecting materials; why chase me so persistently? It will delay your important matters!" Xu Lei shouted as he moved.

The meaning of his words was quite clear.

Fang Ling cursed in his heart but didn't dare to delay. He shouted fiercely, ignoring the jade seal talisman and the green sword light, and rushed forward. As long as he could rush ten zhang and reach the corner, he could unfold the Western Suburb Smoke and Dust Map and hide inside.

After all, using the Western Suburb Smoke and Dust Map in front of the Foundation Establishment cultivator was risky.

He didn't understand the Foundation Establishment cultivator's abilities. If such a cultivator had the ability to break through space, he would be in danger.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator, seeing Xu Lei leave over ten zhang away, coldly snorted and suddenly struck his head with his palm. A small black banner flew out from his head.

Black light flashed, and the banner grew ten times its size, blocking Xu Lei's path.

Before Xu Lei could react, a black hand shot out from the banner and directly pierced his chest.

Xu Lei's eyes widened in disbelief, but he was helpless.

He died with his eyes open.

At this moment, for Xu Lei, it was a death with his eyes open.

"The Thunderfire Body, when refined into the Yin Soul Banner, is stronger than ordinary souls." The Foundation Establishment cultivator waved his hand, and the black banner returned to his hand. At this moment, he turned to look in Fang Ling's direction.

However, where Fang Ling had been was already empty.
