Chapter 256 Spirit Gathering Array in the Barren Mountain

The fire-repelling demon detonated a fireball, filling the sky with flames and burning the clouds into nothingness.

Ji Fuyan formed a hand seal to cover himself with a layer of spiritual armor. He half-closed his eyes and saw the girl in the mermaid gauze being swept into the sea by the fire wave.

"Fellow Daoist Yaoling!" Ji Fuyan was too late to save anyone and watched helplessly as the blue figure disappeared.

Yu said with dissatisfaction, "Yanhuo Yi! What about your sense of propriety?!"

"Don't look at me like that, I already held back." Yan Huoyi didn't think he was wrong at all. He scoffed, "Who told her to be so weak that she couldn't even withstand a single move?"

"Look at the humans from the Beast Taming Sect, aren't they still alive and well?"

Yu listened to Yan Huoyi's explanation and felt that something was not right. There were too many mysteries, and it had become a mess. He had to go back and review it carefully.

Since the human female cultivator had already sunk into the sea and there was no way to save her, we had no choice but to retreat.

"Yanhuoyi, go."

Yu's decision was the most correct choice at the moment, but Yan Huoyi couldn't listen to any other voices. He rubbed his wrist, his eyes gleaming, and said nonchalantly, "Let's kill this human first. It won't take much time."

Yanhuo Yi was highly skilled and had never been enslaved by humans, but this did not contradict his deep-seated hatred of humans.

The more humans he killed, the happier he felt.

Seeing that he was acting impulsively again, Yu could only suppress her anger and reason with him: "Yanhuoyi, we have failed in this mission, and so many people have died. There is still no news of Jinyuan and the others. The most urgent thing is to go back and report!"

"Someone from the Beast Taming Sect has already gone to inform you that this young human's purpose is to stall you. Can't you see that?"

Yan Huoyi said impatiently, "Of course I understand. Isn't it the same to kill him first and then leave? Yu, you are truly indecisive and have no backbone!"

"Disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, you killed so many of your Feather Clan members, don't you want to avenge them? If you were smart, you should have helped me kill this human long ago. We might already be thousands of miles away from here by now!"

Yu knew he couldn't persuade him; the man wouldn't give up until he killed him. So he had no choice but to take action, fighting two against one, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible.

Ji Fuyan was at a disadvantage, but he was still able to withstand the numerous magical treasures he possessed, as well as his exquisite beast-taming skills.

Under Ji Fuyan's control, the demonic beasts within a hundred miles flew towards the sea, blocking Yanhuo Yi and Yu's retreat.

He couldn't kill the two superhumans, but he could stall for time until the sect sent someone.

The fireball crashed into the seabed, scalding a group of white fish to death.

Ning Fusang sank to the bottom of the water, sat on Qian Yuan's back, and asked, "Is that young man from the Beast Taming Sect dead?"

"He killed Jellyfish Xiajun in retaliation, but the water-repelling pearl was also crushed by Jellyfish Xiajun, and his body exploded into blood foam under the pressure at the bottom of the water."

Ning Fusang was completely relieved upon hearing this. With the young man from the Beast Taming Sect dead, no one would discover that he had been affected by illusionary techniques.

The Beast Taming Sect will hold the Otherworlders accountable for this blood debt.

If the Beast Taming Sect follows the clues and finds Zhu Bei, putting pressure on her side, things will be much quieter on our side.

Even if Zhu Bei knew that she had taken the key to the song of sorrow, what could he do? By then, she was already overseas, nowhere to be found.

Ning Fusang put the two flying swords into the sword-nurturing gourd, and then said, "Let's leave this sea area as soon as possible, the people from the Beast Taming Sect will be here soon."

Qian Yuan nodded and swam towards the outer sea.

A few months later.

On a deserted island, Ning Fusang crushed two pills, smeared them on the back of her hand, and casually bandaged it with gauze. The sea was vast, and there were still too many powerful demonic beasts; even with her Knowledge Realm cultivation, she couldn't traverse it without hindrance.

There was no spiritual energy in this sea area, so she could only use spirit stones to restore her spiritual power before she and Qian Yuan could kill the monster together.

Ning Fusang was surrounded by a pile of spirit stones. She sat cross-legged in the center of the spirit stones, with her palms facing the sky, and circulated her cultivation technique.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ning Fusang opened her eyes, and all the spirit stones around her had turned gray.

There is a spirit-gathering array here.

Ning Fusang looked up at the mountain and saw that the spirit stones she had just taken out had all been sucked away before she could even absorb them herself.

Her eyes flickered, she took out a Spirit Recovery Pill and swallowed it, then picked up her sword and said, "Let's go up the mountain and take a look."

Qianyuan soared into the sky and hid in the clouds. Looking down, several stones were arranged in a complex pattern. A young man in white robes, stained with blood, sat in the center of the magic circle, muttering something.

It conveyed what it saw to Ning Fusang.

"There are actually people in such a desolate place with sparse spiritual energy. Could they be some kind of demon race?" the silkworm spirit muttered.

Ning Fusang gripped his sword tightly, grabbed a vine, and with a few leaps, landed on the mountaintop.

She kicked a pebble, looked down, and realized it was a formation stone. It must be some kind of concealment formation, otherwise she and Qian Yuan wouldn't have failed to detect their presence beforehand.

Ning Fusang stepped into the formation alone. Mist rose around her, and a clear, cold voice rang out: "Who are you? Why do you trespass into my formation?"

The voice seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to pinpoint the speaker's location. Ning Fusang calmly walked forward; she knew the young man's location, as Qian Yuan had told her earlier.

"Did you set up the spirit-gathering array?"

In the center of the magic circle, the young man remained seated cross-legged, unaware that his position had been exposed: "So what if it is?"

"Your spirit-gathering array has absorbed the spiritual energy from my spirit stones," Ning Fusang said calmly, without any hint of accusation.

After a long silence, the other person finally said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know there were other people on the desolate mountain."

"My name is Xiao Bai. May I ask how you are addressed, young lady?"

“Yao Ling”.

Ning Fusang asked, "This desolate mountain has no spiritual energy. Why did Fellow Daoist Xiao Bai set up a spirit-gathering array?"

The young man fiddled with the array stones in front of him, and the mist array disappeared. He turned to look at the disheveled girl holding a sword and smiled, "Help."

"I was out at sea on a sect mission when I accidentally entered this Sea of ​​Absolute Spirits. Five hundred miles away, there is a small sect called Lingbo. If I set up a spirit-gathering array here and fight against the Lingbo sect, the people of Lingbo Island will naturally come here to investigate, and I will be saved."

"How do you know, Fellow Daoist Xiao, that you were rescued, and not that you were targeted for trouble?"

In such a remote place, spiritual energy is already scarce, yet he still managed to take over the spiritual energy of another sect for his own use. It's already merciful that the people of the Lingbo Sect didn't kill him.

Xiao Bai gave a confident smile, "I have a brilliant plan."

He looked at Ning Fusang and said, "I wonder how many spirit stones I just absorbed from Fellow Daoist Yaoling? It's a pity that my storage bag fell into the sea and I can't compensate you for now. How about this, after I hunt down a few sea beasts, I'll compensate you with a few beast cores?"

"A few spirit stones are nothing to mention." Ning Fusang lightly touched the ground with her toes, using her remaining spiritual power to fly up and land on the clouds.

She took out her telescope and looked around. Five hundred miles away, there was indeed the shadow of a small island. It seemed that Xiao Bai had not lied to her.
