Dongzi Qi stood in front of the canvas, gazing afar at the distant Ox Horn Mountain, which was as calm and serene as ever.

  "Tong Yu Shixiong, Zi Dao Shixiong." Dongzi Qi shouted repeatedly, "The front is Cow Horn Mountain, but at a glance, nothing can be seen."

  At that moment, a group of Zifu disciples all stood up and walked over, Tong Yu and Nong Zidao were surrounded by them, they all stood on the canvas and looked far away, Nong Zidao immediately smiled: "It's just an obstacle to confuse people, although nothing can be seen from the outside, but what is the situation on this mountain that can only be known after investigation."

  Wow!

  A huge canvas swooped down and landed on the barren land not far from Ox Horn Mountain, a group of purple mansion cultivators walked down one by one, looking up at Ox Horn Mountain in the distance.

  "Snow Dragon Mountain's people, I, Ji Shi, have been waiting for a long time." A loud and powerful voice came from afar Cow Horn Mountain.

  "It's really on the mountain." Dongzi opened his eyes, and said, "This is the voice of Ji Shi tribe leader Ji Jiu Huo. This old guy is very cunning, skilled in array methods and poisonous insects."

  Tong Yu said indifferently: "He's just an old man, killing him is like killing a chicken."

  "It's rare to have such guts." Nong Zidao also laughed.

  "A large array is laid out around Niujiao Mountain, and I don't know what mechanisms or traps are inside." A silver-haired purple mansion cultivator said worriedly, "What can we do about this?"

  The triangular-eyed cultivator coldly snorted: "What other way is there? To break the formation, of course we must first go and test the formation, to try out the subtleties of this formation."

  One by one, the Zifu disciples discussed how to make their move.

  "It doesn't matter."

  Nong Zidao smiled lightly and said, "This obstacle-creating array is quite ordinary. Just by sensing the fluctuations of the yuanqi outside the entire Niujiao Mountain, I already know the secrets of this obstacle-creating array. Heihei, go break this array." Nong Zidao also conveyed through mental communication how to break the array to his mount, the immortal crane.

  A crane appeared out of thin air and transformed into a white-clothed maiden. The white-clothed maiden looked like an eighteen-year-old girl. Youthful and lovely: "Master, please wait for a moment, I'll go break this formation."

  The white-clothed girl immediately transformed into a flowing light and left, directly arriving at the foot of Ox Horn Mountain. She didn't enter the formation, but instead held a black long whip in her hand, swinging it... The long whip quickly lengthened. It directly pierced through the large formation, and with unparalleled precision, it wrapped around the formation's flag, and with a whoosh, she directly pulled it out.

  "Good."

  "Zi Dao's Shixiong's spiritual beast is also extraordinary."

  "It's great." Everyone praised.

  From their side, all they saw was the long whip entering the big array and then disappearing from sight. When the whip came back, it had already wrapped up a flag! One of the flags was pulled... instantly breaking the maze, and the entire scene of Niú Jiǎo Shān also changed slightly, with several figures standing on the mountain peak.

  "It's the Ji family." Mu Si's eyes landed on him and also saw that young man among the six. "Ji Ning, the genius of the Ji family, is also here."

  "Get up!"

  In the distance, the Jiǔ Huǒ on the peak of Niújiǎo Mountain let out a loud roar, and instantly the entire Niújiǎo Mountain was shrouded in a large amount of fog. The fog spread everywhere... For a time, it was impossible to see inside.

  "Master." The white-clothed girl transformed into a stream of light and flew back. "Just a little short, I had just pulled out one flag array. Another wave of law came... the other flag arrays couldn't be pulled out anymore."

  "That's enough, the formation that can be broken with one move has already been broken." Nongzi said with a calm smile, "It seems that this Ji family has prepared many formations! Unfortunately... it seems that none of them are particularly brilliant formations."

  Next to him, Tong Yu said, "How much of the formation method has Zidao Shidi studied? Which one can this old man Ji compare with? If he can set up a formation that makes you think it's brilliant, then that would be abnormal. The current situation is a very normal situation."

  "Zi Dao Shixiong, how can this formation be broken?"

  "The trajectory of this fog is hard to find."

  One by one, the Zifu disciples looked at Nong Zi Dao.

  Nong Zidao also shook his head and said, "The previous obstacle was easy to break through, but this current formation is a bit more difficult. Moreover, I estimate that the Ji family will have multiple layers of formations, one within another! Just by looking at these misty vapors from the outside, how can we possibly break through the formation? It's likely that only someone like Yuanshen Daoist, who has reached a certain level of existence, would be able to see through the true and false aspects of this formation with just one glance."

  "What about us?" Tong Yu looked at Nong Zi and asked.

  "Let's test the truth!" Nongzi said, opening his mouth. "In my opinion, we 19 Zifu repairmen are divided into two teams. First, send 12 Zifu repairmen to enter the big array together... These 12 fellow disciples must be together and cannot be separated, otherwise they will be defeated one by one. With 12 Zifu repairmen together... even if Ji wants to make a move, his strength is not enough."

  Nong Zidao looked at Dong Ziqi and said, "Ziqi, my junior brother, this time it's you who invited the various factions of Yanshan. You lead the other eleven fellow disciples to go first."

  "Good." Dongzi Qi directly responded.

  Nong Zidao immediately ordered his troops to assemble and directly counted the twelve Purple Mansion cultivators inside the cave.

  "Twelve junior brothers and sisters, you go ahead and depart first." Nongzi Dao flipped his hand and three jade tokens appeared, which he handed to Dongzi Qi and the others. "These three jade tokens were refined by me, as long as the distance is not too far, I can sense them. Junior brothers and sisters, please enter the formation first. I and Tong Yu Shixiong will follow later... When the time comes, we will separately investigate the true or false of the formation's method, and I can also sense your positions, making it easy to gather together."

  "Good."

  "Zi Dao Shixiong has thought it through thoroughly."

  There is no dissenting opinion.

  Because they are very confident! As a sect disciple, they are all good at the technique of combining arrays! With just six fellow disciples, they can form a combined array. Nine fellow disciples, ten fellow disciples, twelve fellow disciples can also lay down a combined array... This is the power of the sect, tens of thousands of Purple Mansion cultivators relying on the combined array technique, can still fight against the Primordial Spirit Daoists!

  It is assumed that everyone understands the subtlety of this formation, and the larger the formation, the more complex it is. For example, if thousands of Zifu cultivators want to form a formation, they need years of grinding and coordination.

  ……

  On Mount Ox Horn.

  Dark fog enveloped everywhere, Ji Ning and others all flew to the edge of the dark fog, looking outside.

  Everyone's heart is heavy.

  Just now, the purple mansion crane demon didn't even enter the formation, and with just a flick of its whip, it easily wrapped up the formation flag. It's clear that it saw through the reality of the formation. Being able to see through the reality of the maze without entering it... also made each of the Ji family members' hearts sink.

  "I set up the outermost maze array as the worst one." Ji Jiu Huo said, "First show the enemy weakness, let them take it lightly."

  "They have twelve Zifu Disciples arriving ahead of time, seemingly wanting to join the formation." Ji Liuren said in a row.

  "Divided into two batches?" Ji Jiu Huo nodded slightly, "I estimate that the second batch is stronger, judging from their previous conversations. It seems to be led by those two Zifu cultivators. However, those two are in the second batch... and have not entered the formation yet."

  "Let's prepare the Dragon-Sealing Heaven-Defying Formation." Shadow Granny said in succession.

  Jiǔ Huǒ zé yī fān shǒu. Shǒu chū xiàn le liǎng kuài lìng pái, lìng pái gǔ pǔ, shàng yǒu 'xià' zì.

  "Subordinate Command?" Ji Ning looked at the two tokens in surprise. "Two Subordinate Commands?"

  "Earlier, when we killed the He brothers and sisters, we obtained a Lord's Order. This ownerless Lord's Order was theirs." Jiǔ Huǒ looked at Jiǔ Níng, his eyes full of expectation. "Another Lord's Order is mine, the Ji family's, that is, the Lord's Order of Wàn Jiàn City. Jiǔ Níng, these two Lord's Orders will be placed on you first!"

  Ji Yu directly handed it over to Ji Ning's face.

  "Me?" Ji Ning was taken aback.

  "This calamity is fraught with danger, if I'm lucky enough to survive, you'll give me the decree of Wan Jian City then. If I die, you'll stay behind." Ji Jiu Huo said, "No matter what, this decree must not fall into the hands of Xue Long Shan. Once things can't be done, you'll rely on the Wan Li Wu Zong symbol to quickly leave. The decree will also go with you... even if they eventually break through the formation, they'll find that the decree is nowhere to be found. At that time, you'll represent me, Ji Shi, and the Da Xia Dynasty in signing the contract."

  Ji Ning nodded slightly and accepted the two Ministerial Edicts. Yuan Li invaded and easily refined the two Ministerial Edicts.

  At the same time, I vaguely felt the calls from two directions in the distance, which were the calls of the two cities to myself.

  "Good."

  Jiǔ Huǒ and Yǐng Pópó burst out laughing. The rear route had already been arranged, so they could now focus on the battle ahead.

  "Stay true." Jiǔ Huǒdào said, "The Dragon-Sealing Heaven Array, you will be the head of the dragon formation's axis. I will call upon the great array's power to merge with your body."

  "Yes." Kiri nodded.

  "Ji Ying." Ji Jiu Huo rarely called out his sister's full name, "You will be the pivot of the Dragon Body Formation."

  "Hmm." The shadowy old woman's eyes were filled with longing.

  "Liu Xing." Ji Jiu Huo also shouted out the old servant Awu's name, "You are the key to the Dragon Claw Formation."

  The old servant nodded slightly.

  "Ji Ning." Ji Jiu Huo looked at Ji Ning, "You were already the strongest among us, and your yuan power was relatively weak before. But once combined with the large array... our yuan powers unite! Your strength increases the most! In this way, your strength will far surpass ours. The dragon tail of the Ming Long Lock Heaven Array is the most mysterious and agile, it can assist all parties, so you take charge of the axis, you are also our trump card."

  Ji Ning nodded.

  Once the Dragon Sealing Heaven Formation is laid out, the Dragon Head Formation, Dragon Claw Formation, Dragon Body Formation, Dragon Pearl Formation, and Dragon Tail Formation... These five separate formations are more flexible than the others, while the Dragon Tail is the most flexible, able to sweep across all directions.

  "I'll be the core of the formation, controlling the array to assist everyone." Ji Jiu Huo looked at Ji Yi Chuan beside him, "Yi Chuan is on standby, if any of us die, Yi Chuan will take over."

  Everyone knows... Ji Yichuan must use forbidden techniques in order to maintain sufficient Zifu combat strength.

  "Gentlemen!" Jiufei's gaze swept across each of them, "Everything for the Ji family."

  "For the Ji family." The Shadow Lady, Old Servant Aweng, Ji Liuzhen, Ji Yichuan, and Ji Ning all responded solemnly.

  "Go, each of you to your respective positions." Jiǔ Huǒ gave the order.

  Ji Zhenyu, Ying Popo, Lao Bin A Xing, and Ji Ning all rushed in four different directions.

  ……

  At this moment.

  Xue Long Shan's side, Dongzi Qi and the other twelve Zifu disciples cautiously entered the Niufang Mountain shrouded in black fog. As the host of this gathering, Dongzi Qi naturally took the initiative to deploy the Eight Trigrams Blood Dragon Array! The massive Eight Trigrams Blood Dragon Array encircled the outer perimeter of the twelve Zifu disciples as a precautionary measure.

  In this way, the twelve Zifu monks will not be easily dispersed either.

  "Dark Fog Illusion?" The twelve people entered the endless dense black fog and began to carefully search around.

  "Everyone be careful of Ji's sneak attack." Dongzi Qi shouted again.

  In the midst of the dark fog, the atmosphere suddenly became heavy and oppressive. They all held their breaths with caution, fearing that the black fog would suddenly unleash a terrifying attack. As cultivators... they all understood one thing: even if they looked down on each other, when it came to life-and-death battles, no cultivator could be underestimated.
