Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Not good, everyone look down below!"

Just as everyone was deeply attracted by the strange scene before them, Duanmu Ya, as if discovering something, suddenly shouted.

Duanmu Ya's voice was very loud. After hearing it, Chen Tian and the others were shocked. Immediately afterward, they quickly lowered their heads as instructed and looked down.

However, after only one glance, a chill immediately rushed up from the backs of everyone, causing them to shiver involuntarily.

The crowd discovered that the pedestrians, who originally had an air of 'immortal grace', now had shriveled skin, and their fair faces instantly turned as black as withered wood. Where were these people? They were clearly just dried corpses! In an instant, the originally peaceful city suddenly became as eerie and terrifying as a ghost town.

No less than several thousand ferocious corpses raised their heads, staring intently at Chen Tian and the others with eyes gleaming with a ghostly red light, their eyes full of greed and killing intent!

"This is… the Thousand Corpse Demon Gathering Formation!"

After seeing such a horrifying scene, Immortal Lord Ziwei seemed to have discovered something, took a deep breath, and exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing this, Chen Tian's expression also changed rapidly. Then, in a somber tone, he turned to Immortal Lord Ziwei and asked, "Senior, what is the 'Thousand Corpse Demon Gathering Formation'?"

Hearing Chen Tian's inquiry, Immortal Lord Ziwei's face revealed a look of shock, and he said bitterly, "You don't know, this Thousand Corpse Demon Gathering Formation is a powerful formation technique that has long been lost even in the Ancient Immortal Realm. It can transform the corpses of dead cultivators into corpse demons after refining them. These corpse demons look no different from living people at first glance, but they only reveal their true appearance after outsiders break in.

This is an extremely powerful illusion technique, used for defense in ancient times. However, because the deployment of this formation requires the use of many cultivator corpses, and the more powerful the dead bodies, the greater the power after sacrifice, some malicious cultivators directly killed living cultivators and then transformed them into corpse demons. For a time, killings were rampant in the Ancient Immortal Realm, greatly disrupting the original stable order. Therefore, everyone was forced to unite to ban the use of this illusion technique. After countless years, very few people know this history. I just don't know who set up the Thousand Corpse Demon Gathering Formation here?"

As he spoke, Immortal Lord Ziwei looked at Chen Tian with a meaningful gaze.

"Jin Chi! You schemed against me!"

Chen Tian was an extremely intelligent man. After listening to Immortal Lord Ziwei's explanation, he immediately understood everything, and at the same time, his eyes flashed with raging anger!

Chen Tian naturally understood that the person who deployed this Thousand Corpse Demon Gathering Formation must be Jin Chi! Jin Chi refined these long-dead ancient immortals into corpse demons and disguised them as living people in order to lure Chen Tian into the trap.

In other words, Chen Tian personally opened a door to trouble for himself.

This time, Chen Tian miscalculated and completely fell into Jin Chi's trap.

Thinking about it, it's obvious that with Jin Chi's personality, how could he leave so many obvious flaws so ostentatiously, allowing Chen Tian to find him so easily? Besides, in that catastrophe that destroyed the entire Ancient Immortal Realm, how could anyone have survived? This seemingly prosperous city is actually just an illusion deliberately created by Jin Chi, a trap to lure Chen Tian into being fooled.

In fact, these loopholes are extremely obvious. As long as you think about it carefully, you can find the flaws. It's just because Chen Tian was too eager to find Jin Chi that he fell into Jin Chi's trap and was severely calculated.

After all, Jin Chi had spent hundreds of years with Chen Tian and was the person who knew Chen Tian best in the world.

Presumably, this trap was specially tailored for Chen Tian by Jin Chi!

Thinking of all this, the anger in Chen Tian's eyes burned even more intensely.

At this moment, the corpse demons below finally began to move. They first let out ghostly howls, and then rushed towards Chen Tian. Their speed was as fast as black lightning!

"Hmph, seeking death!"

The overwhelming sword rain, carrying unimaginable majestic power, blasted forward. The enormous power almost made the entire world tremble violently.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Soon, this fierce sword rain rushed onto the corpse demons, and endless sword energy burst out.

However, to everyone's surprise, the bodies of these corpse demons were made of some unknown material, and they were extremely hard. The sharp sword energy hit their bodies, and crisp clanging sounds rang out. Although the situation seemed tragic, it did not pose much of a threat to them!

Except for a few corpse demons with low strength who were annihilated into ashes by the sword rain, the other corpse demons, although their bodies were shot into sieves, still endured and continued to rush towards Chen Tian, howling like ghosts and wolves.

That's right, these corpse demons were all powerful immortals who lived in the Ancient Immortal Realm before their deaths. Their strength was already extremely profound, and after being refined into corpse demons by Jin Chi, their bodies became even harder, and they were not afraid of Chen Tian's round of attacks at all!

Soon, these corpse demons rushed up and formed an encirclement, surrounding Chen Tian and the others. At this time, although they were already dead, they still possessed extremely high intelligence and were not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they drooled black saliva, staring intently at everyone.

Looking at their appearance, it was as if they were waiting for Chen Tian to reveal a flaw before rushing up and using their numerical advantage to kill Chen Tian and the others.

Therefore, at this time, they were very greedy for the fresh bodies of Chen Tian and others, but they still endured, and their pale pupils flashed with a faint red light, focusing on everyone!

"Damn it, what do we do now?" Seeing this scene, Ji Ao, who was on the other side, also felt a burst of numbness in his heart. Endless fear continued to emerge, causing his back to be wet with cold sweat. After cursing secretly, he lowered his voice and hurriedly asked Immortal Lord Ziwei.
