When they heard Zhang Ruochen's words, those evil martial artists were slightly stunned at first, and then burst out laughing.

  A burly man with a thick iron rod in his hand, riding a bell-hung horse, laughed and said: "Little kid, are you crazy? Let us go or do you think you're one of the Ten Great Demons?"

  On the back of the golden giant tiger, Lin Xiang'er raised her head and looked at the young man wearing a mask in the distance, feeling a bit familiar.

  Zhang Ruochen's temperament had changed greatly, and he was also wearing a metal mask, so Lin Xian'er didn't recognize him at all, only feeling that there was something familiar about him.

  Lin Xuan could see that the young man was deliberately blocking the evil person's path from Hei Hu Tang. Who was he, to dare oppose Hei Hu Tang?

  Lin Xuan's heart gave rise to a desire to survive, and he cried out: "I am a disciple of the Cloud Platform Sect, I beg of you to spare my life, and I will certainly repay you heavily."

  "If you dare say one more word, I'll cut out your tongue." Nie Zhenghan said coldly, glancing at Lin Xian.

  Lin Xuanxuan was intimidated by Nie Zheng's powerful martial arts aura, and immediately closed her mouth, gazing pitifully at the young man in the distance.

  Now, that young man is her only hope.

  Nie Zheng stared at Zhang Ruochen in the distance and said in a low voice: "Sir, are you really going to oppose Hei Hu Tang?"

  Zhang Ruochen's expressionless face said, "I'll say it again, I just want to go to the Earth Fire City. If you can lead the way for me, I can spare your lives. Of course, the people of Hei Hu Tang have committed too many evils and must be punished. Death penalty can be exempted, but living penalty is unavoidable."

  "Do you still want to punish us?" asked Nie Zhenghan.

  "I just think you should be locked up for ten years or twenty years." Zhang Ruochen said.

  "What a big tone you have! I, Ji Lao San, want to see just how capable you are!"

  That warrior holding an iron rod rode a jingling horse and suddenly charged towards Zhang Ruochen.

  Rumbling

  The bell horse gallops, shaking the ground.

  Ji Lao San's cultivation reached the Xuanji Boundary, and he was Nie Zheng Han's left and right arm. The Blood Soul Staff in his hand was a three-tiered true martial treasure, and it was unknown how many high-ranking martial artists had been killed by it.

  True energy surged into the Blood Soul Pole, and the nine fire tracings in the pole were activated in an instant.

  A thick, bowl-mouthed Blood Soul Cudgel was completely enveloped in flames, emitting a "hissing" sound.

  "Whoosh"

  Ji Lao San held a staff in one hand and suddenly attacked Zhang Ruochen's head. A wave of intense heat transformed into flames that flowed towards Zhang Ruochen.

  Zhang Ruochen stood still on the spot, without moving a single bit.

  Xie Lao San's heart was delighted, he had encountered a fool, who must have been intimidated by his aura and was now too scared to move.

  Lin Xuan's heart also rose to his throat, a pair of bright eyes staring tightly at the young man in the distance, could it be that he was just pretending?

  Boom

  The Blood Soul Stick was only half a foot away from Zhang Ruochen's skull, but it was blocked by a layer of true energy and bounced back.

  Xie Lao San only felt a surge of great power coming from the Blood Soul Cudgel, which was used to blast apart the tiger's mouth between his thumb and index finger, causing the Blood Soul Cudgel in his hand to fly out.

  With a loud crash, the Blood Soul Club fell to the ground, shattering a thousand-pound boulder.

  Xīo Lǎosān was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he exclaimed: "Everyone be careful, the protective aura is real! He's a high-ranking martial artist at the Earth Extreme Realm!"

  The old lady rode on a bell horse and immediately escaped back.

  Zhang Ruochen did not strike out and kill Ji Lao San, still standing in his original position, looking very calm.

  The evil masters of Hei Hu Tang were all frightened pale and stared incredulously at the young man in front of them.

  Although the young man's face was covered with a metal mask, people could still see that he was not very old and would not exceed twenty years.

  It's too terrifying to reach such an extreme state at such a young age.

  Nie Zhenghan was the fourth person in Heihu Hall and reached the extreme of the earth at the age of fifty or so.

  Nie Zhenghan took out a silver giant axe, grasped it in his hand, and stared at Zhang Ruochen with vigilant eyes, saying: "You are an inner disciple of the Wumeng Xuegong"

  Zhang Ruochen's mouth slightly hooked up and said, "That's right."

  The evil Taoist warriors of Hei Hu Tang all tensed up, originally they all knew that the masters of Wu Shi Xue Gong had arrived at Ling Yue Town and were mentally prepared. But seeing the masters of Wu Shi Xue Gong with their own eyes, they still felt very tense in their hearts.

  That is an inner disciple of the Wu Shi Xue Gong, absolutely a top-notch expert.

  "Fabric Array"

  Nie Zheng let out a loud roar.

  The evil Taoist warriors of Hei Hu Tang dispersed and formed a large circle around Zhang Ruochen.

  Every evil martial artist held a jade stone in their hand, and after injecting true energy into the jade stone, a formation pattern flew out of the jade stone.

  Dozens of array patterns converged together, forming a massive array that completely connected dozens of evil Dao warriors into one entity.

  "Combo Formation."

  Zhang Ruochen stood in the center of the formation, without panic, nodded and said, "Not bad."

  The combination formation is widely used in the martial arts world.

  The formation master will carve the formation pattern in advance on the jade stone, which is called "formation base". The warrior only needs to inject true energy into the jade stone formation base, and can activate the formation pattern.

  The more arrays are formed, the stronger the warrior's cultivation is, and the greater the power of the combined array tactics will be.

  A set of combined formation methods, with at least two arrays, only requires two warriors to activate the formation.

  Some super combo formations can even have tens of thousands of array bases, with overwhelming power.

  Generally speaking, ten Yellow Extreme Boundary Small Realm warriors using a combined strike formation can completely take down an initial stage Mystic Extreme Boundary warrior.

  In fact, the combination formation is to let the martial artist in a short period of time, release the true energy inside the body, unite everything, and burst out power that surpasses oneself several times.

  Controlling this formation will cause a warrior's true energy to be consumed quite quickly.

  If a martial artist's true energy is exhausted in a fabric array, then the formation will collapse by itself.

  The Hei Hu Tang's evil Dao warriors, a total of sixty-seven people, fifty-seven are Huang Ji Jing cultivation, nine are Xuan Ji Jing cultivation, only Nie Zheng Han's cultivation reached Di Ji Jing.

  Sixty-seven people all grasped the jade stone array base, among which Nie Zheng's jade stone array base had as many as twenty array method inscriptions. Each of the array method inscriptions was very thick and sturdy, just like twenty array method pillars that completely supported the array.

  Those nine Xuanji Boundary warriors' jade stone array bases, some controlled three lines of inscriptions, some controlled ten lines of inscriptions, and were quite sturdy, forming the second layer of pillars for the formation of the array.

  The remaining fifty-seven Yellow Extreme Boundary Warriors all controlled only one Array Pattern Seal.

  Sixty-seven warriors, under the effect of the combined strike formation, completely combine their strength together.

  "This set of combined strike formations would cost at least one million silver coins to buy, right?" Zhang Ruochen thought to himself.

  "Fire Dragon Lock!" Nie Zhenghan bellowed loudly.

  The formation pattern is fully activated, constantly rotating and condensing into strands of flames.

  Those flames converged together, forming a fire dragon over ten meters long. The fire dragon flapped its wings and stretched out a pair of enormous dragon claws, swiping at Zhang Ruochen's head.

  "Unable to withstand a single blow"

  Zhang Ruochen slapped his palm outwards, and a powerful surge of energy burst forth, forming a true energy palm print over a meter long.

  "Boom"

  True Energy Palm Seal, directly shattering the Fire Dragon.

  "Awesome!" Nian Zheng Han's heart skipped a beat.

  The power of that dragon just now was enough to severely injure Nie Zonghao with a single swipe, but it was instead countered and shattered by a single palm. The cultivation of that young man is simply unfathomable.

  "Splitting Heaven and Earth Apart"

  Nie Xingyun raised the silver giant axe in his hand, and all the formation patterns rushed towards the silver giant axe.

  A silver giant axe emitted a piercing light and chopped down.

  A gigantic axe shadow over ten meters long broke through the void, carrying an unmatched powerful aura, and chopped down towards Zhang Ruochen's head.

  That silver giant axe was a sixth-grade true martial treasure, with thirty-five inscriptions inside. With Nie Xie's cultivation, it was impossible to activate all thirty-five inscriptions at the same time.

  However, Nie Zongheng activated the thirty-five inscriptions on the silver giant axe with the power of Borrowed Strike Formation, unleashing a terrifying and unparalleled force.

  Zhang Ruochen's arm stretched out, and the Blood Soul Stick that had fallen to the ground flew into his hand under the guidance of his true energy.

  Although Xuehun Gun was only a third-grade Zhenwu treasure, after being grasped by Zhang Ruochen's hand, it burst out with unparalleled power.

  Boom

  Zhang Ruochen's arm swung out, and the Blood Soul Cudgel collided with the silver giant axe, producing a deafening crash.

  The Blood Soul Stick was shattered by a powerful force, turning into countless fragmented iron blocks that flew out towards the evil Dao warriors in all directions.

  "Puff puff"

  More than a dozen evil martial artists were pierced through their bodies by shattered iron pieces and flew backwards, falling to the ground with mournful cries.

  Nie Zheng was also hit by the powerful impact, and he stumbled backward for over ten zhang, his arms splitting with bloodstains, his fingers aching to the point of cracking, and the silver giant axe almost flew out of his hands.

  Zhang Ruochen simply struck out with his hand, and the combined array of techniques was immediately shattered into pieces. Even Nie Zhenghan, the fourth-ranked person in the Black Tiger Hall, was injured by the blow.

  "Everyone quickly escape, this person is not someone we can deal with!" Nie Zhenghan shouted, immediately jumping onto the back of the Golden Spotted Giant Tiger, wanting to ride it to escape.

  "You were given a chance before, but you didn't cherish it. Now you think you can still escape?"

  Zhang Ruochen unfolded the Wind Dragon Shadow, taking a step forward and flying out dozens of feet away, hovering above Nie Zhenghan's head.

  Nie Zhenghan's face changed, holding a silver giant axe, chopping upwards.

  "Boom"

  Zhang Ruochen slapped his palm downwards, and a powerful force surged out, sending Nie Zhenghan flying away. His body crashed into the wall, piercing through it.

  A loud crash.

  The entire house collapsed, burying Nie Zhenghan under the rubble.

  Nie Zhenghan emerged from the ruins, his entire body covered in blood. He stared fearfully at the masked youth opposite him, gritting his teeth as he spoke: "Even among the inner palace of Wushang Academy, there aren't many whose cultivation has reached your level. Each and every one of them is a renowned figure. Who exactly are you?"
