In the center of dozens of spiritual magic formations, Ku Yao sat on the ground with disheveled hair, motionless, with his hands forming strange spells, and six giant red banners slowly rotating around him.
The ten-foot-long fire python circled and danced above his head, its red light shining brightly, causing a large cloud of fire to surge endlessly.
Not far opposite him, the woman in green clothes had left the giant beast's back at some point and was watching Ku Yao's every move coldly.
Half a step behind her, the tall mage was also concentrating on the situation at hand.
"Fire!" Ku Yao's eyes suddenly widened and a low roar broke out from his mouth.
The six fire banners emitted a deafening buzzing sound at the same time. Six red beams of light shot out from the banners and accurately injected into six giant fireballs in the air that had already formed and were more than ten feet high.
In an instant, these red light pillars were instantly absorbed into the stomach, and the six hot fireballs began to tremble. Then, the flames on their surfaces suddenly surged to more than ten feet without warning.
Then, accompanied by deafening drum sounds, these fireballs rushed towards the thick sea of fog like huge meteorites, arranged in neat rows, as if trying to force a passage.
With so many cultivators working together, the combined power of fire is truly astonishing.
Even though the mysterious fog barrier of the Fire Dragon Mountains was carefully constructed by the formation masters of the Nine-Nation Alliance, the moment these fireballs touched the green fog, several earth-shattering noises rang out one after another, causing dozens of feet high fire pillars to break through the fog and rise from the ground.
A strong hot wind swept past, and the fog within a radius of several miles was blown away in an instant.
A moment later, the green mist that filled the clouds was filled with the sound of beasts, and the yellow-green light extended from the depths of the mist like a huge net.
"Hurry and get in! The master of the cave is ready to use the advanced fire magic to bravely destroy the restrictions below. In today's battle, we must go all out and destroy this magic circle in one go."
The beautiful woman in emerald green clothes shouted the command in a cold voice, shocking the entire sky.
The army of mages, who had been waiting for a long time, cheered warmly, and then more than ten people, or even five or six people, rushed into the green mist without hesitation.
"It's time for us to take action. Once Master Ku has finished performing his spell, he will follow."
The woman in green said in a calm tone, and a white light emanated from her body, turning into a dazzling white rainbow and speeding away.
The tall mage responded quickly and turned into a black light and followed closely behind.
In a blink of an eye, only a few hundred mages who were setting up magic arrays were left in front of the sea of fog.
At this moment, the other fireballs in the sky, under the guidance of the six fire banners waved by Ku Yao, fell into the sea of fog one after another, forming a straight line with the previous six fireballs. Dozens of flames shot up into the sky, directly destroying the restrictions on this line.
Ku Yao laughed triumphantly a few times, then stood up with a "whoosh", waved to the many monks around him, and then without hesitation transformed into a ball of blazing flame and headed straight for the sea of fog.
Seeing this scene, other monks who were setting up the formation also rushed forward.
In an instant, thousands of mages poured into the sea of fog, not to mention the hundreds of monks hiding in the dark, manipulating the restrictions and waiting for an opportunity to act.
……
Chen Yun was quietly floating in a corner of the sea of fog, his eyes closed. He was wearing three colors of gold-eating beetle armor and had a huge green sword under his feet.
Above his head, there was a cloud of golden insects about ten feet in diameter floating silently.
Although the flying insects in the cloud all had hideous faces and fierce eyes, as if they would pounce on and bite the enemy at any time, they did not make any sound.
Chen Yun's eyelids trembled slightly a few times, then he slowly opened his eyes, with a look of surprise on his face.
"It turns out that there is a female mage in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul hiding here."
Chen Yun muttered a few words in a low voice, then pondered for a moment, reached out and gently tapped the storage bag. With a flash of light, a set of exquisite array equipment appeared in his hand.
Relying on his outstanding physical skills, Chen Yun arranged the most powerful temporary battle formation around him in a short moment. This was the first choice among the many formation-setting tools he carried with him.
"Yin Yue, please show up." Chen Yun ordered in a majestic tone. At the same time, he stretched out his other arm and gently waved his wide sleeves. The little fox jumped out from the cuffs and landed steadily in front of Chen Yun.
"I have decided to give you this magic weapon called 'Purple Jade Pouch' to control. In addition, the artifact called the Flower Basket Ancient Treasure will also be yours. The enemy this time may be more difficult to deal with than Senior Sister Wan'er. Therefore, you must always be vigilant."
"If we find that the opponent's gods are too powerful, we don't have to confront them head-on. We just need to lure them here, use the fog sea restrictions and the magic circle I set up, and then have a fierce battle with them. If this still doesn't work, then we have no choice but to give up. Because there is no reason for us to risk our lives."
Chen Yun gave orders to the little fox calmly and firmly.
Then, he flipped his hand, and the "Purple Sword Bag" and the ancient treasure flower basket appeared in his hands one after another, and then he threw them to the little fox without hesitation.
"Yes, my Lord. I will remain hidden in the darkness as I have always done, and will come forward to serve you when the time is right."
A dazzling white light burst out from the little fox's body. After a roll, she turned into a beautiful young woman. She bowed deeply to Chen Yun and then spoke charmingly.
"Very good, your performance is still outstanding. In the last battle against the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect, the timing you chose to attack was perfect." Chen Yun nodded with satisfaction and gave her a few words of praise.
"Thank you for the compliment, Master. I will continue to work hard and live up to your expectations."
Yin Yue put the two precious treasures in her hand into her pocket, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a charming smile, and then a yellow light flashed, and she disappeared without a trace in front of Chen Yun in an instant, as if she had become invisible.
Seeing this, Chen Yun frowned slightly, his eyes flickered, and then he looked up into the distance, with a cold look on his face. With a flash of green light, he disappeared into the mist on the side, and no trace could be seen anymore.
At the same time, many mages have gone deep into the fog. However, not long after, the remaining restrictions in the sea of fog are activated one after another, and murderous intentions are lurking everywhere.
Fortunately, most of the practitioners followed closely behind the giant rhino that was clearing the way for them, and these restrictions did not seem to pose a threat to the giant beast.
Whether it is fireballs, ice cones, or attacks of various attributes such as lightning, flames, and earth spikes.
The blows that landed on the giant beast were like tickles, unable to cause any substantial damage, and were easily bounced off by its thick black armor.
The giant rhino paid no attention to the attacks and just focused on running forward.
No matter what kind of forbidden barrier it encountered, it would use its huge body to directly smash through it, rushing all the way to the first wide area opened up by the fire meteor. This area was more than a hundred feet wide, and all the fog disappeared.
At this time, none of the mages following closely behind the giant beast were injured.
However, what is surprising is that among this group of mages, the highest-level cultivators are only four in the Jindan stage, and there is not a single great mage in the Yuanying stage.
People can't help but wonder where the green-shirted woman and others are hiding after entering the fog, or whether there are other tricks brewing.
When they arrived at this fogless place, these mages all breathed a sigh of relief. Several Jindan stage practitioners even gathered together to discuss the next plan of action.
But at this moment, two long spears shining with silver light suddenly shot out from the thick fog in front, surrounded by arcs of lightning and continuous roaring sounds.
The mages were greatly surprised. Two of them who were in the Jindan stage immediately waved their hands, each releasing a blue and red light, trying to resist the attack of the two long spears.
However, unexpectedly, the two silver spears did not collide violently with the two magic weapons of the mages. Instead, after spinning in the air for a moment, they suddenly accelerated and shot diagonally towards the giant rhinoceros.
This scene made several Jindan stage practitioners stunned at first, but they soon felt relieved.
Thanks to the giant beast's powerful defensive capabilities, ordinary magic weapons cannot cause any damage to it at all.
However, the next scene left them dumbfounded. The two silver spears did not attack the giant rhino's body directly, but suddenly stopped when they flew above the giant beast, and then crossed and collided violently without any warning.
In an instant, a deafening thunder sounded, followed by an extremely thick bolt of lightning bursting out from the intersection of the two silver spears, striking down fiercely and hitting the giant beast's head.
The blue protective aura on the giant rhino's body flashed and disappeared, and was ruthlessly shattered by the lightning, hitting the black armor plates on its body heavily.
A loud noise intertwined with thunder and lightning sounded, and after the flash of lightning, the giant rhino was still standing firmly in place without any damage. However, the giant beast seemed to be aroused with strong anger. After a deafening roar, it suddenly opened its mouth and a white ice cone more than ten feet long shot out like lightning, pointing directly at the silver spear in the sky.
The two silver spears had no intention of stopping. They just slightly turned their bodies to avoid the attack of the ice cone, then spit out a silver arc and disappeared into the thick fog in an instant.
The blood red in the giant beast's eyes deepened when it saw this scene. Without saying a word, it raised its huge paws and frantically chased after the fleeing Yin Ge.
Several Jindan stage mages who had just recovered their cultivation were greatly shocked. They immediately called out to their colleagues behind them, and used their own escape techniques to try to follow.
However, before they could take action, lights of various colors flickered in the thick fog around them. Hundreds of mages suddenly appeared from every corner and released countless magical weapons, launching a fierce attack on the people in the middle like a rainstorm.
The mages of the Mulan tribe were surprised and extremely angry. They all used various spells to resist, and the scene was in chaos for a while.
At this brief and critical moment, the giant rhinoceros followed Yin Ge into the thick fog and disappeared without a trace.
Those Jindan stage mages who had just recovered their cultivation were temporarily intercepted by several high-level cultivators in the cultivation world and were unable to escape.
Faced with such a situation, they were naturally furious, and were about to use their numerical advantage to call on the magicians behind them to rush forward and wipe out all these monks. However, those monks suddenly retracted their magic weapons, turned around and fled into the vast sea of fog without hesitation.
Seeing this situation, the mages present looked at each other, not knowing whether they should continue chasing, and fell into hesitation and confusion.
"There are too many people, so we need to disperse. Most of the restrictions nearby have been destroyed. As long as everyone is careful, there shouldn't be any big problems. Since they intend to provoke us, let's chase them and wipe out all these cultivators in one fell swoop. As for the giant beast, with our strength in the Jindan stage, it may be difficult to cause any harm to it. After we have dealt with these cultivators, we will still have time to look for the giant beast."
An old man in the late Jindan stage, obviously the leader among them, gave instructions calmly after careful consideration.
Immediately afterwards, he turned into a dazzling light and rushed straight into the sea of fog in front of him, chasing after a Jindan stage cultivator who was fleeing.
Upon hearing this, the other mages immediately split into several groups and scattered in all directions, searching for the traces of those monks.
After a violent uproar, the thick fog gradually returned to calm. The place became empty for a while and no one could be seen anymore.
However, just a moment later, a figure flashed again in the green mist. This person looked leisurely and contented, and slowly walked into this empty place.
I saw that he had an immortal look and extraordinary temperament. He was the old man named Ma.
His face looked a little pale at this moment, but his eyes were flashing with sharp light, and there was no sign of excessive depletion of mana.
After arriving at the center of the open space, the old man looked around and suddenly a strange expression appeared on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
"Since I have already revealed myself, you may as well be frank with me. I am afraid that these techniques of seclusion alone cannot deceive my eyes." The old man spoke slowly and evenly, his eyes fixed on a silent and deserted place, his face remaining calm and composed.
"Humph! I never thought your divine consciousness was so powerful. I had planned to bring you a surprise, but it seems that this cannot be realized." A man's cold mockery came from that direction, and then a black light flashed past, revealing the figure of the tall and thin monk. (End of this chapter)
