Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

Because the members of the Qinghua Divine Sect were too scattered, and Ji Boying had to protect the pressure spirit patterns, restrictions, and barriers set up in the formation space, the effect of this sword was not as good as expected.

At least, under normal circumstances, more than half of the Qinghua Divine Sect members could have been left behind, but due to the two reasons mentioned above, less than one-third were ultimately killed.

However...

The desired effect of this sword has already been achieved.

Not only did it create an indelible psychological shadow on the members of the Qinghua Divine Sect, but it also revitalized the Wan Dao Commercial Alliance, sweeping away the desolation.

However...

Before the members of the Wan Dao Commercial Alliance could celebrate, Gong Jingci had already been enveloped in raging flames, descending like a meteor.

"Mr. Ji, please leave quickly!"

The old formation master who presided over the formation, sensing the attack of the fire elemental laws, immediately flew to Ji Boying's side. He spoke rapidly:

"Although I am weak, I can temporarily delay them. The commercial alliance can do without me, or even without these core members, but it cannot do without Mr. Ji!"

Before the old man could continue speaking, Ji Boying patted his shoulder from behind and smiled lightly:

"Thank you, Elder, for helping to restore the formation. As for this Jingci Divine Lord, let me deal with her first."

"Mr. Ji, you..."

The old man wanted to say something, but he saw Ji Boying take a step forward, then instead of retreating, he rose from the ground and charged straight towards Gong Jingci, who was descending like a fire meteor.

At the same time...

Within the formation, the spirit patterns were activated in circles, and the majestic spiritual pressure instantly condensed and circulated along a specific route.

At the same time, dozens of talismans in Ji Boying's storage ring shot out like arrows, piercing into the spirit patterns of the formation.

After the spiritual pressure of the formation reacted with the talisman runes, they instantly connected and formed a set of flowing Azure Dragon, soaring upwards.

It happened in the blink of an eye.

Ji Boying's series of actions were almost completed in the span of a few breaths.

In just a few breaths, he had already rushed to Gong Jingci's front.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he raised his hand and forcefully pulled from behind.

The flowing Azure Dragon, formed by dozens of talismans, instantly pierced through the Shattering Void, emitting a sharp and high-pitched "roar," fiercely smashing towards Gong Jingci's face.

When Gong Jingci saw Ji Boying not retreating but advancing, she was already puzzled. Now, seeing Ji Boying using talismans to deal with her, she became even more confused.

No power of the laws.

What impact could these talismans alone have on her?

Or did he already know that she had no way out and was desperate, wanting to fight to the death?

However...

These things no longer mattered.

At this distance, she was undoubtedly doomed!

Gong Jingci immediately mobilized the fire elemental laws around her, then casually threw a fireball towards the Azure Dragon talisman that Ji Boying had sent.

As for herself, she accelerated once again, directly targeting Ji Boying!

Boom!

After the fireball collided with the Azure Dragon talisman, all the dozens of talismans were instantly activated.

At the same time...

Violent purple thunder, accompanied by raging fire, mud, vines, mountain rocks, and gusts of wind, swept across the sky!

Gong Jingci, who didn't pay attention to these talismans, was immediately engulfed by the various spiritual lights emitted by them.

On the ground, the old man who hadn't fully recovered yet suddenly brightened his eyes. He tightly gripped the formation flag, and even the spiritual power circulating within his body was almost disrupted.

Within these talismans...

He sensed a trace of the power of the laws!

Although the power of this rule is extremely weak, for someone like him who has pursued the rule for many years but has not been able to obtain it, the sensitivity to the power of the rule exceeds even those cultivators who have already mastered it!

Therefore, even though this trace of rule power is weak, he can still clearly perceive it!

At this moment, he finally understood why Ji Boying did not retreat but instead advanced!

He also finally understood why Ji Boying wanted him to restore the formation!

He was not sacrificing himself!

He wanted to use the power of the formation to block the return to the Void Realm of the Qinghua Divine Sect!

Thinking of this, the old man quickly suppressed his excited emotions and shouted with all his strength towards the people in the formation: "Form the formation!"

The old man's voice this time was even louder and had a wider range than before!

The entire Five Elements Formation heard his thunderous roar.

Almost at the same time, the people in the main formations of the other four formations also shouted hysterically, as if they were giving the command to reassemble the formation.

"Form the formation!"

"Form the formation!"

"Form the formation!"

Outside the Qiankun Pass...

Having dealt with Wan Yangxiu, Chen Hui continuously activated the spiritual power and sword qi within his body, rushing towards the Fallen God Valley at an astonishing speed!

His speed was not only breaking through the void, but also leaving behind long-lasting cracks and ripples in the space he passed through!

He was unable to kill Wan Yangxiu.

To be precise, he was unable to completely annihilate Wan Yangxiu's body and soul.

Of course, if we don't consider the situation in the Fallen God Valley, he was very confident that he could completely annihilate Wan Yangxiu's body and soul. After all, even though the latter used life-saving methods, without a physical body, could his Primordial Spirit escape faster than him, a cultivator who also practiced the sword path?

However, not being able to completely kill Wan Yangxiu was not a big deal.

Without a physical body, even if he were to possess another body or use a puppet body, his combat power would never be the same as before, and even maintaining the cultivation level of the Return to Void Realm would be a luxury.

For the Shang Clan, this was already enough.

The combat power below the Soul Formation stage could be compensated for when the Heavenly Demon Hall arrived.

As for the combat power at or above the Soul Formation stage, including the casualties from the previous battle in Yuyang City, the Qinghua Divine Sect had already lost four cultivators in the Return to Void Realm!

It should be noted that the Qinghua Divine Sect had less than twenty cultivators in the Return to Void Realm in total.

Losing four of them at once exceeded twenty percent, which was definitely a significant loss!

Moreover, this northern expedition had three objectives:

First, to provide blood and energy to the Heavenly Demon Hall;

Second, to seize several large high-grade spiritual veins for the Shang Clan;

Third, to weaken the combat power of the Qinghua Divine Sect in order to prevent betrayal from the Five Continents when the Heavenly Clan descended!

Now that the Qinghua Divine Sect had lost four cultivators in the Return to Void Realm, the third objective could be considered half accomplished.

Once the third objective was accomplished, the first two objectives would naturally be completed as well.

Although Chen Hui had doubts before about why he didn't form an alliance with the Qinghua Divine Sect, after all, having a few more cultivators in the Return to Void Realm would provide more assurance when the Heavenly Clan descended; as for betrayal...

Those who are not of our race have different hearts.

The Qinghua Divine Sect was also one of the forces in the Five Continents. There was no reason for them to betray the cultivators of the Five Continents and favor the Heavenly Clan.

But...

The words of Lord Wuyou completely dispelled his thoughts.

"Qinghua is not to be trusted!"

"Mr. Qi said so."
