39: Rakshasa Purgatory Formation

With Tian Shanhai's addition, just as everyone thought the scales of victory would slowly tip in their favor, to their surprise, moments later, Old Man of Bliss and Tian Shanhai were both struck down again.

To avoid another mishap, Mo Lingfeng immediately unleashed a killing move.

A giant Dragon slowly emerged, with a myriad of landscapes evolving within it, majestic and imposing, then it charged towards them.

"Old geezer, I wonder who will save you this time?" Mo Lingfeng watched them with murderous intent, showing no mercy in his attack.

"Damn it!" Old Man of Bliss's face was grim. If he hadn't been backstabbed first, how could he have been in such a pathetic state?

But seeing the roaring Dragon, Old Man of Bliss still shouted unwillingly, "Elder Mosha, save me!"

"Elder Mosha?"

Everyone was puzzled by this statement, but soon, their confusion was resolved.

A dark black Devilish Pillar suddenly rose from within the ancient Purple Cloud City, followed by countless dense Devilish Runes lighting up.

In the blink of an eye, the entire Purple Cloud City was covered.

Immediately, countless black Devilish Pillars rose, and overwhelming Devilish Qi obscured the sun, plunging the entire Purple Cloud City into darkness in an instant.

"What's going on? Why is it dark?"

"Such terrifying Devilish Qi, it's a Devil Cultivator!"

"Damn it, the entire Purple Cloud City is covered by a Formation, we can't get out..."

This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present. Countless people ran around in fear, anxiety, and panic, discussing what was happening.

Fear spread... danger approached step by step... until a piercing scream broke the silence.

"Ah~"

A chilling sound echoed in everyone's ears.

A man suddenly pounced on his companion, opening his sharp, blood-stained mouth and biting into his neck.

Everyone reacted quickly and immediately knocked the man away.

But soon, a horrifying scene occurred: the man who should have been dead rose again before everyone's terrified eyes and rushed into the crowd.

Before anyone could react, several screams once again rang out in the crowd.

Someone reacted and anxiously shouted, "It's Devilish Qi, everyone quickly use your Spirit Power to protect yourselves!"

But it was too late. Countless screams rang out densely, and the crowd instantly fell into chaos, like a cacophonous symphony.

The survivors quickly left the square, moving away from this dangerous place.

But as long as they didn't leave Purple Cloud City, where else could they run to? At the same time, Wang Ning once again encountered a crisis.

With the Formation's self-exposure, Wang Ning no longer had any value.

Therefore, the mysterious man immediately sought to end this troublesome youth.

Just as Wang Ning was about to hide inside the Floating Pagoda again, at the critical moment, Li Xiangyun made his move.

In fact, as early as when he was evacuating the crowd, Li Xiangyun had noticed this strange "combination."

Therefore, the moment the mysterious man was about to act, Li Xiangyun appeared beside him and restrained him.

The moment he was freed, Wang Ning anxiously explained, "It's a Devil Cultivator!"

"Last night, I accidentally stumbled upon their conspiracy. Although I fortunately escaped, they targeted me."

Wang Ning didn't elaborate on the rest, as it was meaningless at this point.

After listening to Wang Ning, although his mood was heavy at the moment, Li Xiangyun still smiled and said, "You are Wang Ning?"

Wang Ning didn't find it strange and admitted frankly, "Replying to Ice Peak Zhenren, yes!"

Even though he had expected it, Li Xiangyun was still a little surprised at this moment. It truly was an "unusual" name!

Then, he slowly said, "Tell me everything you know, not a single detail missed."

Without hesitation, Wang Ning began to recount his entire experience from last night. However, regarding the Floating Pagoda, Wang Ning still concealed and modified certain parts.

After listening to Wang Ning's account, Li Xiangyun pondered, "It seems that some people went missing a few days ago because they stumbled upon their conspiracy. I was truly careless."

Li Xiangyun was a bit annoyed. At that time, his entire focus was on collecting Spirit Medicine. Although he knew people had gone missing, he thought that with Purple Cloud City being a mixed bag of good and bad people, there were many ruthless individuals, so some murders and robberies were normal.

He didn't expect that the other party had exploited this psychology to quietly set up a grand Formation in the city.

However, Li Xiangyun was still inevitably shocked by the opponent's ambition.

"This is to refine the entire Purple Cloud City, including hundreds of thousands of Cultivators, into Yin Corpses!"

Although Li Xiangyun had long known that with the Great Zhou Dynasty's defeat in the Extraterritorial Battlefield, various Devil Cultivator forces would surely stir.

But he didn't expect the other party to make such a big move right from the start.

Looking at the mysterious person he had restrained, he was already dead.

Li Xiangyun looked at the chaotic scene not far away with a heavy heart, and gradually some thoughts formed in his mind... A moment later.

Li Xiangyun took Wang Ning and Li Muwan to a hidden place, then discussed countermeasures with Fire Old.

In the dim room, after setting up the barrier, Fire Old floated in the air and slowly said, "This is the Mosha Purgatory Formation, a third-grade Middle Stage Formation, which should be derived from the ancient Asura Hell Formation."

"It has the effect of refining living people into corpses, and these corpses are immortal and indestructible unless they are completely shattered."

"Then, Teacher, do you have any solutions?"

Li Xiangyun was still contemplating when Li Xingyan asked impatiently.

"Two methods." Fire Old held up two fingers and said, "The first method is simple and crude. Although the Asura Hell Formation is powerful and troublesome, it must rely on a certain terrain. It only needs to destroy that terrain."

"However, the focus of the Asura Hell Formation is not on Asura, but on the word Hell."

"Because the Asura Hell Formation can turn the human world into Hell, that terrain must be incredibly solid. Although the third-grade Middle Stage Mosha Purgatory Formation is much weaker in effect, it obviously also possesses this characteristic."

"Therefore, to destroy the Formation, at least a Mid-stage Golden Core Cultivator is required."

"And with your current state, you obviously can't do it." Fire Old said, glancing at Li Xiangyun.

Li Xiangyun gave a bitter smile. If he were at his peak, he might be able to try. But now, the only chance he had could not be easily attempted until a crucial moment.

Fire Old obviously didn't expect Li Xiangyun to be able to break the Formation, so he continued, "The second method is also simple."

"Any Formation must have a Formation Core and Formation Points."

"Therefore, only by destroying the Formation Points can the Formation be broken."

"And for this, I need to act."

"Then I'll leave it to Fire Old. This Junior thanks Fire Old on behalf of the entire city's populace and hundreds of thousands of Cultivators for saving their lives." Li Xiangyun bowed solemnly.

Fire Old said indifferently, "No need for such formality, I am merely helping my disciple."

Li Xiangyun chuckled, not caring. Although he didn't know what had happened to Fire Old, he knew that Fire Old was just sharp-tongued but kind-hearted.
