274: Chapter 274 Riding a Dog

Faced with a siege that even a True Immortal Early Stage Cultivator would find difficult to handle, Su Mo didn't even lift an eyelid.

He simply raised his right hand casually and snapped his fingers crisply.

Pop!

The soft sound, though occurring on a battlefield where the shouts of killing had just begun, clearly reached everyone's ears.

In the next moment, a scene that stunned everyone unfolded.

Around Su Mo, figures appeared out of thin air without a trace.

One, ten, fifty, a hundred... In the blink of an eye, over a hundred Cultivators, all radiating the powerful fluctuations of the True Immortal Early Stage, were densely packed around Su Mo, guarding him in the center.

These were the true immortal incarnations Su Mo had converted from those True Immortal stage miners within the Origin Secret Realm.

Everyone's movements came to a simultaneous halt at this moment.

Where did these people come from?!

They are all True Immortal Realm Cultivators?!

And there are so many of them?!

How is this possible?!

The sinister smile and killing intent on Ye Bing's face instantly froze, and his pupils shook violently.

He swept his gaze around abruptly, his Divine Sense spreading out frantically.

An ambush?!!

His first reaction was that he had fallen into a trap!

The Prince of Zhenbei had long anticipated his appearance and had set an inescapable net here.

Otherwise, how could he explain these hundred-plus True Immortals appearing out of thin air?

However, as his Divine Sense swept through, apart from the hundred-plus people before him, he didn't discover any other hidden Cultivator Auras.

Seeing the hesitation and fear on the faces of his elite soldiers, he forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart and roared:

“What are you panicking for! It's just a hundred or so True Immortal Early Stages! Form the 'Xuan Ye Immortal-Slaying Formation'! Let them witness the might of my Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty's military Formation!”

Hearing the order, the well-trained elites of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty immediately steadied their minds and quickly changed their Formation.

The breaths of the hundred men instantly linked together, and streaks of black Profound Baleful Qi surged from their bodies.

Interweaving in the air, it transformed into a massive phantom of a Black-Armored Divine General holding a War Halberd, emitting a heart-palpitatingly terrifying pressure. Its Aura even surpassed the True Immortal Peak, approaching the threshold of a Profound Immortal.

Facing this terrifyingly powerful battle Formation, Su Mo simply uttered a single word:

“Go.”

As soon as he spoke, the hundred-plus true immortal incarnations moved.

They didn't perform any fancy Divine Abilities, nor did they form any profound Formations; they simply charged silently towards the arrayed Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty army.

From the body of every Incarnation, a strange three-colored interwoven flame suddenly rose.

The moment the three-colored flames appeared, the eternal, extreme chill in the surrounding space was forcibly dispelled.

The thick ice and snow that had accumulated below for countless millennia actually showed signs of melting.

The hundred-plus true immortal incarnations showed no intention of dodging or defending against the War Halberds of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty elites.

Seeing this, Ye Bing's originally tense mind relaxed slightly, and a disdainful sneer curled on his lips again:

“Humph! Mere rabble, they don't even have basic combat instincts...”

Before his mocking words were finished, a sudden change occurred.

The immortal essence that had been flowing steadily within the true immortal incarnations about to collide with the military Formation suddenly became incredibly violent, emitting heart-palpitating fluctuations.

“Not good! They're going to self-detonate!!!”

The Cultivator behind Ye Bing let out a roar of extreme terror.

But it was already too late.

Boom boom boom boom boom—!!!

A series of deafening explosions thundered without any gap.

That destructive energy erupted like ten small suns in the core area of the Xuan Ye Immortal-Slaying Formation.

Blinding light instantly swallowed everything, and a violent shockwave spread outward in a ring, lifting the several-zhang-deep snow along with the frozen earth.

Ye Bing, positioned in the center of the battle Formation, was not harmed.

But within the Formation, the hundred elite soldiers of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty almost all spat out a large mouthful of essence blood, their Auras instantly withering, and many were directly seriously injured and unconscious.

And the surrounding Snow Shadow Ghost Wolves were even more miserable.

Lacking the protection of a military Formation, they were swept up by the aftershocks of ten True Immortals' self-detonations at such close range. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and almost all of them were critically injured and on the verge of death.

As the shockwave dissipated, a scene of utter devastation in the center of the battlefield was revealed.

The once majestic phantom of the Black-Armored Divine General was now much more ethereal, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

The Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty's army was in disarray, suffering heavy losses.

Su Mo hovered in mid-air, letting out a soft “Eh?” as a playful smile appeared on his face:

“Dog rider, not bad. This turtle shell could actually withstand ten self-detonations of the True Immortal Early Stage.”

Then, the curve of Su Mo's mouth widened, revealing a wicked smile:

“Then... how about another wave?”

Seeing this, Ye Bing immediately roared:

“Fellow Daoist, wait! Have mercy! I am willing to return the daughter of the Prince of Zhenbei!”

Ye Bing abruptly threw the girl he was holding hostage toward Wang Gang.

Seeing this, Wang Gang was overjoyed and immediately took flight, carefully using a gentle thread of immortal essence to guide the terrified Li Yun Ge behind him, shielding her firmly.

After handing over the hostage, Ye Bing forced himself to stay calm:

“Fellow Daoist! I have released the person! I am the Twenty-Ninth Prince of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty! If you kill me, my Father Emperor, the Lord of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty, will never let you off! It will be a fight to the death!”

Beside him, Wang Gang also steadied his mind and hurriedly advised: “

Fellow Daoist, please reconsider! This person has a special status. Killing him might trigger an all-out war between the two nations. His brother-in-law is the commander-in-chief of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty's southern expedition. If he dies, the border will surely face frantic retaliation, and the people will suffer!”

Su Mo just gave a light chuckle:

“Does that have anything to do with me?”

Wang Gang was stunned by the words and subconsciously asked in return:

“Fellow Daoist... are you not the reinforcements sent by the Prince of Zhenbei?”

Su Mo's gaze swept over Wang Gang:

“Who told you I was reinforcement?”

“Then... then you are?!”

Wang Gang was completely bewildered; if he wasn't one of the Prince of Zhenbei's people, why did he intervene?

“You don't need to know who I am.”

Su Mo didn't bother to explain, his tone suddenly turning cold:

“Later, we'll settle the score for you calling me ‘Senior’ for no reason and dragging me into this mess.”

Wang Gang was instantly speechless, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on his back.

He had just been acting out of desperation, trying anything in a hopeless situation!

With a thought from Su Mo.

In the next moment, all the remaining true immortal incarnations charged toward the battle Formation composed of the Xuan Ye Immortal Dynasty elites.

“No—!!!”

Ye Bing let out a desperate and unwilling roar, frantically pushing all the immortal essence in his body and his protective Magic Treasures, attempting to resist.

Boom boom boom boom boom—!!!

The explosions, more dense than before, merged into one.

After the shockwave passed.

Only a bottomless, massive charred crater remained where they had been; Ye Bing and all his elite soldiers had vanished without a trace.
