Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 971 The Arrival of the Holy Witch
Ning Fa looked at him with a strange expression. It seemed that Ning Daozhen had made very thorough preparations to obtain the innate Qi. Everyone else also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Ning Daozhen solemnly said, "But we still need to succeed as soon as possible. After all, putting everything else aside, the high-level cultivators from Aisa City can arrive to provide support in at most three hours."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately took action, each unleashing their own natal magic weapon or supernatural power.

In an instant, the light of various magical treasures and supernatural powers transformed into torrents, crashing towards the giant tower in the basin amidst a series of booming sounds.

Just then, a loud rumble was heard from the boundary tower.

The nine ferocious beast heads hanging from the nine corners shone with a fierce light in their eyes, as if they had come to life, and quickly condensed into bodies in the clusters of five-colored energy.

In the blink of an eye, the nine ferocious beasts transformed into enormous creatures, flying out of the tower and roaring as they charged towards the magical artifacts and supernatural powers attacking the group.

Although these nine ferocious beasts had not reached the Nascent Soul stage, they were not far off.

Moreover, even if his body was damaged, he would quickly recover in the five-colored energy surging from the World-Suppressing Tower, which blocked the surging attack of the crowd for a time.

Ning Fa activated his five thunder swords, which, like swimming dragons, released sharp thunderous sword energy, tearing apart the bodies of a giant python and a black bear beast nearby.

But just as he was about to unleash the Divine Firmament Dharma Form to destroy the tower more quickly...

He suddenly frowned and looked in a direction several miles to his left, then slapped the air in that direction with his left hand.

With a deafening roar, a giant lightning palm, over ten feet long, suddenly appeared and slammed down in that direction.

A burst of spiritual light rippled in that seemingly deserted spot, revealing three figures.

One of them then summoned a magical artifact shaped like a black mountain peak, which he placed above the heads of the three, blocking Ning Fa's palm print.

However, this black mountain was also flashing with spiritual light, and there were some signs of melting at the top of the mountain.

This sudden turn of events caused the others who were launching a fierce attack to turn around and look in this direction. Their expressions changed, as they had not expected that there were other people lurking nearby.

Upon recognizing the three individuals, Ning Daozhen frowned deeply: "It's these guys! How did they know about this place?"

Among the three who arrived were a handsome man in a black robe and a beautiful young woman in a white dress; they were none other than Liao Wuyin and Wen Xiuxin.

In the center stood a burly man clad in heavy armor, bald and beardless, his body wreathed in black lightning.

The spiritual pressure he exuded was much stronger than that of Liao Wuyin and Wen Xiuxin, indicating that he was already a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and clearly much stronger than ordinary mid-stage cultivators.

"Ning Daozhen, you have actually broken your promise. This really makes me quite sad."

Liao Wuyin looked at Ning Daozhen and clicked his tongue in an exaggerated manner.

After saying that, he looked at Ning Fa, his eyes gleaming, and chuckled.

"And this Fellow Daoist Ning is an old acquaintance of mine."

"I've long heard of your triumphant return, but I never expected to run into you here again. It seems Ning Daozhen broke his agreement with us because of you."

At this moment, Wen Xiuxin was also staring intently at Ning Fa, her eyes flashing with a crimson light. The bald, burly man was also looking Ning Fa up and down, his eyes filled with undisguised shock, and a fleeting glimpse of greed.

Ning Fa glanced at Liao Wuyin and Wen Xiuxin, then quickly looked at the bald, burly man, his eyes showing a hint of seriousness.

The aura emanating from this person was somewhat familiar to him, very similar to that of the ancient spirit incarnation Lei'er that he had encountered in Yingyue Valley.

The one who created Lei'e was none other than Lei Ming, the ancient immortal from Lei Honglu.

It seems that although he killed Lei E in Yingyue Valley before, Lei Ming has now created an ancient spirit from it.

Thinking of this, Ningfa suddenly felt a sense of unease.

After all, back on the Ancient Immortal Island, it was because he was being chased by Lei Ming that he had no choice but to risk going to the ancient teleportation array controlled by Zhenhai Pavilion and Yuancha Sect, and finally escaped by a close call.

Ning Fa didn't know Lei Ming's true strength, but he felt that his current strength was not enough to guarantee a match against him.

In particular, it is unknown whether Lei Ming's strength has recovered and become even stronger over the years.

Fortunately, the ancient immortal island had restrictions, preventing Lei Ming from leaving freely.

If it's just an ancient spirit like Rey, then it's nothing to him.

At this moment, Ning Daozhen quickly said to Liao Wuyin and the others, "Regardless of what happened before, now that we're all here, let's join forces to break this tower. Then, we can each fight for the innate Qi by our own means."

Ning Fa thought for a moment and did not object.

Meanwhile, Liao Wuyin and Wen Xiuxin looked at the bald, burly man, who thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice, "Alright."

The fragile alliance was formed, and the three ancient spirits immediately unleashed their respective magical treasures, launching an attack on the giant tower in the basin.

The three of them were also very powerful. The nine-headed beast could no longer hold them back, and their attacks began to land on the Zhenjie Tower, barely being blocked by the five-colored spiritual light it emitted.

Meanwhile, inside the tower, in a hazy white space...

More than twenty Tianli cultivators stared grimly ahead at a water mirror formed of white light, which displayed the scene of Ning Fa and his group's attack. Apart from the four Nascent Soul cultivators at the head, all the other Tianli cultivators were Core Formation cultivators.

Among them was Ling Yue, dressed in a white dress, who was standing on a circular platform in the center of the place.

At the base of this high platform are countless mysterious five-colored array patterns that extend to all parts of the tower.

Streams of primordial Qi from the Five Elements flowed into the high platform along these patterns.

The numerous elements of the Five Elements condensed into a sphere, tightly encasing a palm-sized white fragment within it.

Ling Yue, with a solemn expression, cast spells at the white fragment that was enveloped, seemingly oblivious to the strange changes happening around her.

"Damn it, these remnants of the Seven Saints Sect are indeed unreliable. Now they've colluded with the Cangyuan people again!"

A furious curse rang out, and a bald old man with a thick beard shouted angrily.

He was also the person with the highest cultivation level in this place, at the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and his body emitted a crimson flame that seemed to be tangible.

"So their real purpose in destroying the Five Elements Overturning Primordial Spirit Trapping Array was to target us, but how did they find the exact location where we refined the Nine Realms Suppressing Towers?"

A middle-aged Nascent Soul cultivator standing nearby, dressed in a blue robe and resembling a scholar, said in disbelief.

"Now that they're all here, why are you still worrying about this? You should hurry up and think about what to do!"
That damned Ning Daozhen unleashed the Blood River of Heaven, enveloping the entire Five Veins Land. The teleportation array was rendered unusable, preventing others from providing immediate support.

"With so many high-level cultivators on the other side, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long."

"I'm so annoyed," said Ye Ji, who was standing to the side.

The others looked at each other, their faces grim; the situation did indeed look extremely dire.

The Nine-Part Suppressing Tower is still some distance from being completed and cannot yet unleash its full power. With just these people, they probably won't be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive.

"It's alright, everyone doesn't need to worry too much."

Just then, a voice came, and suddenly a white light flashed in a corner, revealing a middle-aged cultivator dressed in brocade robes with a dignified expression.

Upon seeing the middle-aged man in brocade robes appear, the others were immediately delighted and bowed deeply, saying, "Greetings, Holy Wizard."

The person who came was none other than the Holy Witch of Tianli!
However, the bald old man carefully examined the middle-aged cultivator in brocade robes, his joy vanished, and he asked with some doubt, "Sir, the aura emanating from you..."

The middle-aged man in brocade robes said calmly, "What you saw was just an avatar of mine. Fortunately, I was careful and left an avatar nearby."

My main body is rushing this way, but it will take some time.

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across the faces of the others, but their spirits still lifted.

After all, even if it is just an incarnation of a holy witch, it still has the strength of an ordinary great cultivator.

Although the opposing side has a large number of people, there are no high-level cultivators among them, so there is still a good chance that they can hold out until reinforcements arrive.

But what the monk in brocade robes said next took them by surprise.

He said calmly, "Now I order that all the innate five elements of Qi from the Five Veins Land be absorbed into this World-Suppressing Tower."

In this way, about 80-90% of the tower's power can be activated, and the "Suppressing Boundary Domain" can be used.

In that case, eliminating these invaders would be more than enough.

Upon hearing this, a beautiful woman in a blue dress, who was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, immediately said anxiously, "My lord, please reconsider!"

If what the adults say is true, the World-Suppressing Tower will inevitably suffer irreversible damage. Not only will the completion time be delayed for a long time, but the final grade of the magic weapon will also be reduced.

Now that our superiors have come to our aid, we can hold off these Cangyuan people for a while until reinforcements arrive.

By then, they'll have nowhere to escape; there's no need to be so radical.

"Yes, sir, there's no need to be in such a hurry," the bald old man said anxiously.

After all, these nine World-Suppressing Towers are related to the fate of their clan. If they cannot achieve the expected grade and power, then those who created them will undoubtedly be ashamed of the Tianli clan.

The cultivator in brocade robes glanced at them and said calmly, "Are you questioning me?"

Everyone immediately fell silent. The cultivator in brocade robes sighed, "If I could, I wouldn't want things to be like this either, but the situation has changed. Take a look and see who that person is."

Everyone immediately looked in the direction the man was pointing.

In the giant water mirror ahead, as the monk in brocade robes cast his spell, the image suddenly magnified onto a single person.

This is a middle-aged cultivator with a sallow complexion wielding five incredibly sharp lightning swords.

Beside him stood a bright young girl in blue armor and a handsome young man with long, icy-white hair, both of whom made a grand entrance.
