Become a fairy alone

Wenhe's spatial flames were extremely domineering, burning large amounts of vines and trees into nothingness wherever they passed.

However, some of the vines remained unaffected by the intense flames in this space, instead becoming even more menacing.

Some of the clouds in the void dissipated directly, while a large amount of clouds, unable to hide, emitted sharp whistling sounds and surged in from all directions.

With so many demon lords and demon kings gathered together, even the treacherous and unpredictable Green Wood Sacred Abyss has few beings capable of provoking them.

However, the vines and clouds formed by the power of the formation were indeed unaffected by the demonic aura; their fierce momentum actually overwhelmed them.

When the vines, as serpentine and wild as they were attacked, large and small black bone patterns appeared on the surface of their broad leaves.

In the blink of an eye, the many demons present were surrounded by the enemy.

"As expected of an old monster at the Emperor Realm!"

"Black Bone Emperor, Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor!"

"What a powerful formation!"

The expressions of Styx Blood Mosquito, Golden Crown Ghost Eagle, and other powerful figures changed drastically. The combined strength of so many demons present was extremely terrifying, but they still lacked confidence in the face of the rumored Emperor-level powerhouse. This was an instinctive fear of Emperor-level powerhouses that had developed over countless years.

The surrounding vines and the endless, sweeping clouds and mist combined to create a unique rhythm, demonstrating a deep understanding of formations.

Most of the demons present could vaguely discern that this was a powerful formation, but they could not see the edges of the formation, let alone find its flaws.

Without a suitable solution, even if their strength were several times greater, it would still be brute force, and they would eventually run out of steam.

“Fellow Daoist Dragon Clan, we must find a way to break this deadlock as soon as possible. The longer we stay in the formation, the more passive we become. Once we are dragged down, we may not even have a chance to fight back.” The Golden Crown Ghost Eagle said in a deep voice. Most of them were helpless and could only place their hopes on Wen He.

“If we can work together, we might be able to fight our way out. But if we each have our own agendas and try to get others to do the work, none of you here will make it out alive,” Wen He said coldly.

"Don't worry, we know how dangerous it is," the many demons present replied in unison.

With a formidable enemy at hand, now is not the time for infighting. Even if we want to seize the remnant of the Heavenly Dragon, we must first find a way to leave this place.

"Golden Crowned Ghost Eagle, Styx Blood Mosquito, Crimson Dream Demon Lord, each of you will lead one or two strong individuals to form three small teams, and obey my orders." Wen He naturally wouldn't hold back at this moment.

Originally, he was the strongest and the greatest threat in the eyes of these demons. Now, a Black Floating Bone Emperor has suddenly appeared, whose strength far surpasses that of anyone present. Naturally, they must now concentrate their forces to eliminate this greatest danger.

"They are just some juniors who have already fallen into my formation. Even if they join forces, they are nothing but chickens and dogs to me. Killing you is as easy as turning my hand."

Black Bone Emperor snorted coldly. Regardless of whether the other party was able to escape in the end, he would at least suppress the other party in terms of momentum for the time being.

There are too many juniors below, so we need to use formations to attack them first.

Before the words were even finished, vines bearing black bone patterns swarmed in from all sides, lashing out at the opponent relentlessly. Simultaneously, the clouds formed gigantic demonic phantoms, each palm striking down upon the opponent. The battle instantly intensified after it began.

The golden-crowned eagle darted about like lightning, its ghostly feathers like sharp blades, severing a large number of vines.

Chi Mengyao reached out and lifted her hand, and countless pinkish-red light spots spread outward, transforming into butterflies burning with flames, fluttering and flying towards the vines.

A large number of butterflies were shattered by the whipping of the vines, but some landed on them. Wisps of flame then clung to them, and in a short while, the surroundings were engulfed in flames.

The thin wings of the Styx Blood Mosquito fluttered, and countless tiny insects landed on the vines. The blood mosquitoes' sharp mouths pierced through the vines and began to frantically suck the dregs, causing the vines to wither at a visible speed.

Other demons and monsters also joined the fray, and in a short time, a large number of giant monsters formed from vines and clouds were defeated one after another.

They seem to have achieved considerable results, but compared to the almost inexhaustible power of the entire formation, these results are insignificant.

As far as the eye could see, the sky and the ground were completely enveloped by vines and clouds.

No matter which direction they charge in or how many victories they achieve, they seem to be forever trapped within this great formation.

The demons attacked one after another, fighting in various places, and each of them suffered some losses. However, their situation did not improve in the slightest.

"Can you break the formation or not?" The Flame Soul Bear Demon shattered the giant demon phantom in front of him with a punch and shouted at Wen He impatiently.

"What's the rush? A grand formation set up by an Emperor-level expert isn't so easy to break. If you have any brilliant ideas, you can do it yourself." Before Wen He could even speak, Luo Qian had already retorted without any politeness.

Before the words were finished, a panicked voice rang out. It was the Yin Spider among the Yin-Yang Human-Faced Spiders. After fighting fiercely for a while, it developed a slight opening and was invaded by a thin cloud of mist near its body.

Before she could react, the thin mist clung to her body like a persistent infection, followed by even more vines swirling wildly around her.

Despite the best efforts of her husband and the Styx Blood Mosquito, who was temporarily leading them, they could not fundamentally change the situation. More and more mist clung to her body, forming a thick cocoon.

"No!" Her husband roared in despair, frantically attacking the giant demon formed from the clouds. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the human-faced shadow spider was invaded by a large amount of clouds. After completely losing its ability to resist, its movements inside the cloud cocoon became smaller and smaller until finally its eyes were lifeless, and it seemed to have become a trapped walking corpse.

"Cloud Soul Demon Puppet!" the Golden Crowned Ghost Eagle cried out in alarm.

"What is a Cloud Soul Demon Puppet?" Seeing the fate of the Human-Faced Yin Spider, the Crimson Dream Demon Venerable felt a chill in her heart. It was the first time she had ever heard of such a creature, so she couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"It is an extremely sinister puppet, said to be used for sacrifices to help some old monsters share the burden of heaven and earth's calamities."

Those who are turned into puppets have their primordial spirits imprisoned within, yet still retain a certain degree of perception. During the sacrifice process, they will bear the erosion of calamity in place of their master until their soul is completely annihilated. The entire process is extremely painful; they can only watch helplessly as they gradually turn to ashes, unable even to commit suicide. The Golden-Crowned Ghost Eagle shuddered.

"Such a sinister method of puppet making!" The many demons present were startled upon hearing this. "No wonder the other party, as an Emperor-level expert, went to such lengths to set up this grand formation; their intentions were so malicious." Wen He, Styx Blood Mosquito, and the others were all horrified upon hearing this.

The fierce battle continued without pause, and as they spoke, another mantis was entangled in the vines.

The pheasant mantis struggled violently, trying to break free from its opponent. The vines wrapped around it snapped or were pulverized by the blades erupting from its body.

However, the power of the entire formation was inexhaustible, and more and more vines wrapped around it.

The other demons were engaged in fierce battles, and even when one or two came to their aid, it was not enough to relieve the perilous situation. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Pheasant-Wind Mantis's struggles became weaker and weaker.

This time, the Pheasant Mantis didn't form a cloud cocoon. After being wrapped in layers of vines, a huge gourd with black bone patterns grew on the vines. The Pheasant Mantis inside the gourd, like the Human-Faced Shadow Spider before it, had empty eyes and its body was completely stiff. It looked similar to the Cloud Soul Demon Puppet.

After persisting for another half hour, the Human-Faced Sun Spider followed in its Daoist partner's footsteps and was sealed inside a thick cloud cocoon.

The remaining demons' eyes were filled with fear. The formation set up by this old monster was too powerful. The giant demon that appeared to be made of vines and clouds was indeed simple in its attack methods, but extremely efficient.

Lion Peng and Lion Rain were filled with terror. Even powerful beings like the Yin-Yang Human-Faced Spider couple and the Pheasant-Wind Mantis had fallen into danger one after another. In such a dangerous place, the two juniors had absolutely no chance of survival.

Fortunately, Luo Qian has been protecting these younger generation members and has no intention of abandoning the two of them for the time being. Otherwise, they would have long since become fertilizer for those vines.

With so many demons and monsters trapped inside, they can only barely hold on for now, and the situation seems to be getting worse.

"Dragon Lord, when can we break the formation?" One after another, his companions were turned into these puppets that were neither human nor ghost by the Black Floating Bone Emperor. In another place, Wen He would not care about their lives or deaths, but now each one of them is a combat force that he can use. The death of one is a loss.

He and Luo Qian also had to protect Zhu Qi and his wife, Su Qing, and a few others. As for Shi Peng and Shi Yu, they were just secondary. As time went on, it would be difficult for them to ensure the safety of these people.

Wen He couldn't find the location of the array gate at all, so breaking the array was out of the question. Now he could only rely on the Dragon Lord.

"You lead the Styx Blood Mosquitoes to attack the area 500 miles to the east, Crimson Dream Demon Lord to attack the area 300 miles to the south, Golden Crown Ghost Eagle..."

Lu Xiaotian also found the situation quite troublesome and could only make arrangements at this point. He had originally planned to break the formation.

The formation did indeed have flaws, after all, it was designed to target juniors like Wen He and Styx Blood Mosquito. It wouldn't be easy for Wen He and his group to find that flaw.

However, the challenge for Lu Xiaotian was not breaking through the formation, but rather how to use his current strength to keep the enemy at bay as long as possible.

He not only detected the flaws in the formation, but also sensed the aura fluctuations of his other limbs through the connection between the formation and Black Bone City and Yundu. Moreover, they were much stronger than his own, indicating that there was more than one limb in Yundu.

Even though Lu Xiaotian couldn't directly contact the two places from within the formation, he could deduce that the situation in Yundu was likely caused by his other limbs.

Since that's the case, breaking through the formation and escaping is no longer the best option, and the previous strategy needs to be changed.

Once the formation is broken, the Styx Blood Mosquito and the Golden Crown Ghost Eagle will likely escape, or they might take advantage of the chaos to attack Wen He.

This situation is undoubtedly most advantageous to the Black Bone Emperor. Lu Xiaotian needs to use these demons to restrain the Black Bone Emperor as much as possible, completely entangle him, and buy him time. He also needs to clear away the effects of the Nine Nether Weak Water on his remaining body, recover some of his combat strength, and at the same time buy time for Yun Du.

If they were to set out too early, whether Black Bone Emperor pursued him and Wen He or returned to reinforce Yundu, it would lead to a complete collapse of the situation.

In comparison, keeping the Black Bone Emperor tied down here without disrupting his grand formation and controlling the entire situation is much more difficult than simply breaking the formation.

The Black Floating Bone Emperor is not easy to deal with. If you are not careful, the Yin-Yang Human-Faced Spider couple and the Young Wind Mantis will fall into trouble. At this time, Lu Xiaotian also needs to put more pressure on the other party.

Wen He, Styx Blood Mosquito, Golden Crown Ghost Eagle, and Crimson Dream Demon Lord, all powerful figures, under Lu Xiaotian's covert control, each attacked several key nodes of the formation, immediately causing a section of the formation to become chaotic.

Styx Blood Mosquito, Golden Crown Ghost Eagle, and others couldn't help but show joy, their confidence in Wen He increasing considerably, completely unaware that they were merely pawns at this moment.

Black Bone Emperor was startled, immediately feeling the pressure, and quickly adjusted his formation. He absolutely could not let the opponent escape the formation, otherwise, with his strength, he would not be able to keep these juniors here.

If the other party escapes with the remains of the Heavenly Dragon, he will be left with nothing but tears.

As Wen He and the others' attacks became more targeted, Black Bone Emperor also began to busy himself, reinforcing the formations everywhere to avoid revealing any weaknesses in front of these juniors.

The battle reached a stalemate once again, and Lu Xiaotian gradually regained control of his remaining body.

He had previously refined a portion of the Nine Nether Weak Water using the Source Dragon Relic, but was later pursued by the Four Heavenly Emperors and fled into the depths of the Weak Water. With nowhere else to turn, he absorbed a large amount of the Nine Nether Weak Water, and his body had already established a considerable foundation in this path.

However, at that time it was his true self exerting all his strength, and now it is only a remnant body and a slight division of spirit, which is not enough to completely eliminate the abnormality in the remnant body in a short time.

With Wen He and the Crimson Dream Demon Lord buying time, Lu Xiaotian's progress in controlling the remaining body also began to go smoothly.

Within the formation, a group of demons fought their way around.

Amidst terrified screams, the Flame Soul Bear Demon and the Fierce Heart Thunder Armadillo were successively entangled by clouds and vines, their bodies wrapped in layers, and in the blink of an eye, they too transformed into cloud cocoons and gourds.

"You will all die!" Black Bone Emperor laughed heartily. He had been worried that the other party might break through the encirclement. After all, it was indeed quite difficult for him to control the great formation here and trap so many juniors with extraordinary strength.

Good things come to those who wait, and after much effort, we're finally close to getting things done.

Although Wen He, Styx Blood Mosquito, and the others who remained were stronger, they had lost several helpers in succession. Under these circumstances, they were basically no longer able to escape his control.

Black Bone Emperor continued to control the formation and fight with his opponent for a while. In despair, the Golden Crown Ghost Eagle turned into a cloud cocoon, and the Styx Blood Mosquito was also seriously injured.

Just as the Black Bone Emperor was basking in his triumph, a terrifying aura suddenly appeared out of thin air within the formation. A massive dragon claw plunged into the depths of the formation, and with a deafening roar, the well-maintained formation was instantly torn open, creating a hole. (End of Chapter)
