A Swarm of Ants

Although the old man's strength was a major realm higher, facing such a vast number of Doppelgangers attacking in seamless coordination, even he gradually began to struggle.

He had to resist the Hua Ling Seal Formation draining his spiritual power while guarding against the deadly lightning that could strike at any moment within the Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Formation.

At the same time, he had to divide his attention to deal with the Doppelgangers' tide-like offensive. Even with his profound cultivation, he was beginning to look somewhat stretched thin.

"Hmph, a pack of ants, and you dare dream of shaking this old man!"

The Mysterious Old Man roared furiously. A powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body, blasting back the nearby Doppelgangers.

His hands moved rapidly, forming one complex hand seal after another as he muttered an incantation.

As he moved, a layer of black radiance appeared around his body, shielding him like a barrier.

The Doppelgangers' attacks struck the black glow and were all rebounded, making it difficult for them to break through his defenses for the moment.

Chen Ze's gaze narrowed slightly.

The Body Integration Realm truly was formidable. The Spirit Severing Realm was ultimately far too inferior.

Just then.

"You really think having more people makes you impressive?!" the old man roared.

His hands rapidly formed seals as he continued chanting.

The old man shifted from defense to offense.

With his movements, a layer of black mist suddenly emerged around his body.

The mist spread outward, carrying an eerie aura.

Wherever the mist reached, space itself seemed to corrode, letting out sizzling sounds.

Chen Ze's heart tightened at the sight. He knew the old man was using some powerful secret art.

Moreover, this mist was extremely similar to the mist they had encountered outside the tower.
