On the dragon's tail, huge scales were extremely clear, and Ji Ning was sitting inside the dragon's tail, surrounded by the scales.
"Huh?" Ji Ning heard the rumbling and angry shouting.
"Form an array!" "Deploy the array!" The terrified cries came from afar, Ji Ning's ears moved slightly, and he smiled: "They've made their move."
According to the previous plan, among several strong men of the Ji family this time, Ji Ning was the strongest one! He would only take action at a critical moment... There is no need for him to take action yet.
Just for a moment.
"Ah!"
A figure flashed over, it was Ji Yichuan wearing a white beast skin robe.
"Father." Ji Ning stood up.
"Take it!" Ji Yichuan's hand appeared out of thin air with six flying swords, all suspended in mid-air. "This is what you got after Uncle Zhen killed four Purple Mansion cultivators. One of the Purple Mansion cultivators controlled multiple flying swords, and from him alone, we obtained five flying swords. The four people's remaining treasures add up to these six flying swords."
Ji Ning didn't hesitate and immediately took it over.
"Great, you're just in time." Ji Ning was excited. Earlier, they had already exchanged some magic treasures with each other. Some of the magic treasures were useless to themselves but were urgently needed by others! At this critical moment of life and death, no one would refuse or hesitate. Everything was done quickly and efficiently. For example, Ji Ning gave all the poisonous insects he got from Bo Zishan to Ji Jiu Huo, while Ji Jiu Huo's group knew that Ji Ning urgently needed to upgrade his flying sword last time, but previously they only managed to gather five flying swords for him.
Adding the two flying swords left behind by Bozi Shan, there are only seven flying swords in total. Not even enough to set up a small thousand sword array! However, with these six additional flying swords... it's just enough.
"These six flying swords are all entry-level flying swords." Ji Yichuan said.
"En." Ji Ning nodded, "With these six flying swords, my strength will increase significantly. Next time, I'll definitely make sure to kill those Snow Dragon Mountain Purple Mansion cultivators!"
Ji Yichuan's face also rarely showed a joyful expression: "This time it was really exhilarating, and the Dragon Lock Heaven Array you brought out is formidable! A single surprise attack was enough to kill four Purple Mansion cultivators. If not for the support of the large array, we might have died in each sneak attack."
"Uh-huh." Ji Ning nodded.
Minglong Locks Heaven Array. But what he got from the Water Mansion was naturally very powerful.
"Get ready, once you're needed, the clan leader will notify you immediately." Ji Yichuan instructed, and then transformed into a swift light and left.
Ji Ning immediately began to infuse the flying sword with yuan force, seizing the time to refine this entry-level flying sword. Although according to what Shui Fu Dong's spirit said... as a core flying sword, it originated from the same source and was of high quality. Unfortunately, at present, he didn't have the qualifications to be picky, being able to obtain enough entry-level flying swords was already good enough.
……
Dark fog is pervasive.
Nong Zidao, Tong Yu and others also moved forward cautiously in the dark fog. The immortal crane and the earth dragon had transformed into their original forms and followed Nong Zidao and Tong Yu.
"This black fog illusion is not worth mentioning." Nong Zidao finally spoke up, "I have completely investigated its mysteries, and I can also sense the position of Dongzi Qi and the others. Now do as I say... we will be reunited with them soon."
"Listen to what Master Zidao's senior fellow disciple has to say."
"It's still Zi Dao Shixiong who is formidable." The originally gloomy faces of the surrounding Zifu Cultivators finally had a hint of delight.
Just as they had just entered the formation and shouted, Zidun and eight other Purple Mansion cultivators in the distance also responded... with a loud conversation. Tong Yu and Nong Zidao only then realized that four of their fellow disciples had died all at once! This made Tong Yu and Nong Zidao extremely angry and vigilant.
"Nong Zidao spoke loudly: 'Zi Qi, Shidi, we're coming over now. We'll be there soon.'"
"Boom!"
"Kill!"
"Kill the old man of the Ji family."
A burst of angry shouting and killing sounds came from afar, startling Tong Yu, Nong Zidao and others. Soon the sound of shouting and fighting disappeared.
Tong Yu furrowed his brow and shouted: "Dongzi, open up! Are you all right?"
"It's nothing." A voice came from afar, "The eight of us have been maintaining the grand formation without any slack, but just now a huge dragon claw suddenly attacked... it was even more ferocious than the first attack. We suffered a bit, but with our combined defense, no one died."
"Alright, we'll be right there." Tong Yu said.
"We'd better hurry over." Tong Yu looked at Nong Zi beside him and said, "First it was the dragon's head attacking, now it's the dragon's claw attacking. This little Ji family is actually capable of such tactics."
Nong Zidao solemnly said: "I'm afraid this is a large array obtained by the Ji family in some opportunity over thousands of years, it looks quite powerful, let's merge."
Just at this time ——
Wow!
The surrounding black fog suddenly thickened, and there was a chilling feeling that pierced through the bones.
"Go forward, stop, go left... stop." Nong Zi Dao pointed lightly, suddenly his face changed, "Huh?"
"What's wrong?" Everyone looked at him, waiting for his command.
"It's changed."
Nong Zidao's face turned ugly, "It's a massive formation, with layers upon layers. We've already been enveloped by an even more formidable maze."
"Can't you break it open?" Tong Yu looked at him.
"It's extremely difficult." Nong Zi Dao looked around and waved his hand lightly, feeling the icy chill that pierced to the bone.
"How long can you hold out?" Tong Yu asked.
"I don't know!" Nongzi said with a shake of his head, "It could be as short as half an hour or as long as one to two days."
At this moment, the faces of all the Zifu monks around changed, and Tong Yu was shocked: "So long?"
……
Ji Ning sat cross-legged inside the massive dragon tail of the Dark Dragon, surrounded by over 700 floating sword-shaped magical treasures. Among them, nine flying swords were particularly dazzling, with dense white light emanating from each one. The light coalesced into a single beam that shot out before Ji Ning, forming a brilliant streak of sword energy.
"Ah, the nine flying swords formed a base array, becoming the core of the entire Small Thousand Swords Array's over 700 flying swords. The power has clearly increased greatly." Ji Ning revealed a joyful expression, "However, the pressure on my divine soul from the flying swords entering the stage is also much greater."
The flying swords that didn't enter the stage formed a small thousand sword array.
With the help of people, the law of flying swords forms a small thousand sword array... That is completely different, the difficulty of control is soaring, and the power is also soaring!
"For now, I've only added nine low-grade flying swords. Previously, I had a breakthrough in my sword domain and my divine soul has become much stronger. Now, I can still cast the Small Thousand Swords Array's ninth layer." Ji Ning thought to himself that if he were to add dozens or even hundreds of low-grade flying swords... the number of flying swords he could control would greatly decrease!
"Ji Ning!" A deep and powerful voice came over.
"Tribe leader." Ji Ning's face lit up with joy.
"Now we're in big trouble." Jiǔ Huǒ's voice came through.
"What's wrong?" Ji Ning also became worried.
"Xue Long Shan, this group of Zi Fu cultivators. Especially the second batch that just entered the large formation, there is one called Nong Zidao! I've also heard of his great name, this Nong Zidao is extremely skilled in formation techniques. That Black Mist Illusion Formation he can easily break, now I'm forced to use the Ming Long Lock Heaven Formation's own maze to trap him." Ji Jiu Huo transmitted his voice.
Ji Ning's face changed color.
Minglong Lock Heaven Formation... also has the effect of a maze array, which is much more brilliant than Ji Shi's own maze array.
"They also have a person named Tong Yu. I've never heard of this person's name. But his strength is extremely powerful." Ji Jiu Huo transmitted, "Among the six people of my Ji family, your strength ranks first, and the one who ranks second in strength is that old servant Ah Xing. Just now, Old Servant Ah Xing launched a surprise attack on Dongzi Qi and the other eight people, but they were maintaining their combined formation at all times, so Ah Xing was unable to do anything about it. However, I discovered that Tong Yu, Nong Zidao, and others did not have a combined formation, and felt there was an opportunity, so I let Ah Xing go and attack... Who would have thought that Ah Xing, riding the Dragon Claw of the Underworld, attacked, but Tong Yu alone actually blocked it!"
"Alone in blocking down?" Ji Ning's heart was shocked.
"He is extremely powerful. Lao Biao Awu also made a surprise attack and immediately retreated." Ji Jiu Huo said, "Now there are two batches of people entering the formation, the second batch is far stronger than the first batch. So we must eliminate the first batch of Zifu cultivators as soon as possible. Otherwise, if they merge, we will be in an even more difficult situation."
Ji Ning nodded.
"You are our strongest, now go and attack Dongzi Qi and the others. I will give you directions. After that, listen to my command." Ji Jiu Huo said.
At the same time, the dark fog in front of Ji Ning suddenly parted, revealing a path.
"Alright, I've been waiting impatiently!" Ji Ning suddenly stood up and swiftly moved forward along the passageway.
……
Dongzi Qi and seven others were being extremely cautious, maintaining their formation at all times. The white light of the Bagua Formation enveloped the eight people.
"Be careful, young masters and brothers! This is the Dragon Sealing Heaven Formation!" A worried voice came from afar, belonging to Nong Zidao.
"Dragon Sealing Heaven's Gate Formation?" Dongzi Qi and the other seven looked at each other, each with a bewildered and puzzled expression.
"Far away, Nongzi Dao exclaimed anxiously in a loud voice: 'Just now we were also attacked by the dragon's claw, and Tong Yuxian brother directly repelled it. At a glance, I saw that it was indeed the Minglong Lock Heaven Array! This Minglong Lock Heaven Array is an ancient large array! There are complex Minglong Lock Heaven Arrays, as well as simplified ones... It is said that the Anping Hou Mansion has a heavenly-level great array 'Minglong Lock Heaven Array'. And since the Ji family can use it, it must be a simplified human-level great array. Even if it's just a human-level array... its power is still astonishing. This time we are truly in danger, and we must exhaust all our strength, otherwise there will be a fatal threat.'"
"I and Tong Yu will exert our strength to break through the formation, we can't afford to be distracted, and for the time being, we can't take care of you. You eight take care of yourselves." Nong Zidao's voice echoed.
Dongzi Qi and seven others looked at each other, their faces unsightly.
Obviously this great formation has exhausted Nong Zidao and Tong Yu's full strength... It can be seen that the deterrent power of this great formation is not trivial.
"What's this 'Dragon Sealing Heaven Formation'? I've never even heard of it. Only after Brother Nongzi delved into the numerous formation classics within our sect did he come to know about it, how does Ji have such a powerful formation?"
"Mystic Dragon Locks Heaven Formation?"
Dongzi startled them, each with an ugly expression.
"We will do our best." Dongzi Qi looked around at the seven fellow disciples, "This time it's a life-and-death battle, if we don't kill Ji Shi, then we'll be the ones to die! Everyone should also bring out their hidden lifesaving methods!"
Their mentality has changed one by one.
At first, they came with a carefree attitude, but four of their fellow disciples died at the very beginning, shocking them. However, they also believed that Tong Yu and Nong Zidao would join forces with them... all dangers would disappear. But now, Nong Zidao said that this time, they really had to stake their lives.
"If I had known it would be so desperate, I wouldn't have come to Yanshan." Although they were bitter in their hearts, facing life and death, each of them was still prepared to fight to the end.
Just over a hundred feet away from them.
A gigantic dragon tail was there, and Ji Ning was right at the tip of the dragon tail. Over 700 flying swords were floating around him, ready to kill.
"Ji Ning, attack!" The voice of Ji Clan's Patriarch, Ji Jiu Huo, sounded in his ear.
"Kill!"
Ji Ning's eyes flashed with a fierce glint.
Wow!
In an instant, the entire giant dark dragon had a sweeping motion, and its tail swept directly towards the eight purple mansion cultivators who were on high alert.
