Formation, the Great Commander's Death

"Bang! Bang!"

The sudden turn of events startled everyone present, who then looked around in a flustered manner.

"These are all experts at the Dou Wang and Dou Emperor levels! Damn it! When did the Jia Ma Empire send so many powerful figures?!"

At this moment, Jia Xingtian lost his composure, his old face twitching uncontrollably.

Hai Bodong's expression wasn't much better.

"These people don't seem to intend to let us off the hook either. Let's prepare to fight to the death!"

Hearing the conversation between the two protectors, Xiao Ming's expression also became more serious. He hadn't expected there to be two Hall of Souls Protector here, and it seemed they were even keeping an eye on him. He had previously thought there was only one.

This time, I miscalculated somewhat.

However, they are only two guardians; we can handle them.

No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than the Spirit Protector shouted.

"All Soul Envoy, heed my command! Form the Myriad Souls Devouring Spirit Formation!"

As the shout fell, a massive black mist suddenly surged forth from the shadowy figures atop the trees, instantly enveloping the Misty Cloud Sect area like a dark cloud. Then, several swirling, black mist-like entities rose into the air, emitting faint glimmers of light. From within them emerged illusory Soul Body with crimson eyes, bursting forth like demons, emitting blood-pumping, shrill screams as they hurtled towards the powerful figures of the Jia Ma Empire and Xiao Ming.

Looking at the countless souls surging away, the newly appeared Spirit Protector laughed wildly.

"Xiao Ming, I know you have extraordinary combat strength. You were able to kill the Gold and Silver Elders of the Black Corner Region, who had the combat strength of Dou Zong, when you were Dou Emperor. So I specially prepared a surprise for you. This thing is a soul that I spent a lot of time collecting. It's a compliment to you. Hehehe, enjoy it!"

Countless sharp, piercing cries echoed endlessly across the Yun Shan mountains. Countless souls darted through the black mist, like demons lurking in the night, their blood-red eyes appearing particularly sinister in the darkness.

The powerful figures of the Jia Ma Empire stared solemnly at the dense black clouds in the sky. The countless, chaotically flying souls gave them a chilling feeling.

These people were all quite powerful. They had summoned their Dou Qi to cover their bodies immediately. Now, seeing those souls rushing towards them like a pack of wolves, their Dou Qi burst forth and they slashed fiercely at those souls.

The sharp blade, imbued with Dou Qi aura, possessed extraordinary power. The souls that came into contact with it were torn apart instantly. However, these slain souls turned into wisps of gray smoke in the blink of an eye, rising rapidly and finally disappearing into the black clouds, making the pressure emanating from within the clouds even more intense.

The Sect Protecting Great Formation of the Misty Cloud Sect had already been broken, and many disciples were fighting fiercely.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a scream rang out, and a Dou Wang Dou Wang named He Gan was killed. His soul was extracted and, under the influence of the black mist, joined the attack on other powerhouses.

The reason why the Dou Wang died so quickly was because the Soul Envoy brought by the two Hall of Souls Protector, apart from a few who were maintaining the great formation, most of them rushed into the formation to attack and kill those powerhouses!

Because the number of powerful figures from the Jia Ma Empire who came to watch this time was actually not large, each expert above the Dou Wang had to face several experts of the same level.

In particular, figures like Medusa and Jia Xingtian, who are at the Dou Huang Peak, are the focus of special attention.

The Snake People Great Commander suffered the most, likely because he was the ugliest, and was directly targeted by six Dou Emperors.

Then, after only a few moves, he was taken away, and his Soul Body joined the attacking army.

Medusa's face turned cold at the death of the Snake People Great Commander.

Before she could do anything, Jia Xingtian immediately appeared beside her and repelled a Soul Envoy.

"Queen Medusa, for now, we can only help each other and align ourselves with Xiao Ming, otherwise we'll all die sooner or later!"

Upon hearing this, Medusa hesitated slightly, then looked towards a Battle Group where Zi Yan was fiercely fighting two Dou Emperors.

"Alright!" A hint of worry flashed in Medusa's eyes, but she didn't hesitate for long before pointing at Zi Yan and saying.

"Let's meet up with her first."

"Alright." Jia Xingtian naturally had no objections; he couldn't be happier.

The two then fought and retreated, soon reaching Zi Yan's side, during which time Hai Bodong also joined in.

Having dealt with the Soul Envoys of Great Commander, their confidence seemed to surge, and they charged directly at Xiao Ming.

With a few casual moves, Xiao Ming crushed the few ignorant Hall of Souls Soul Envoy to death. His body erupted with Red Flame, burning away all the Soul Body that approached him. Xiao Ming then narrowed his eyes and looked at the spreading black clouds in the sky.

With his keen eyesight, he could clearly see the numerous souls hidden within the black mist. The sheer number of them was so overwhelming that even he gasped. This so-called Myriad Souls Devouring Spirit Formation required an enormous number of souls, something that Wu Protector seemed unable to utilize at the moment.

They haven't even really fought much yet, and they're already using this kind of formation. Doesn't that seem a bit unsportsmanlike?

Xiao Ming glanced at the powerful warriors of the Jia Ma Empire who had already suffered many casualties in just a short time, as well as Zi Yan was still fighting.

He frowned, then tapped his Na Ring.

"Old Yao, please come out."

"What does Xiao Ming need me to do?" Yao Tian Huo floated out of the Na Ring in Xiao Ming's Xiao Ming, hovering beside him, and said with a smile.

"Huh! There's actually another soul? Judging from how solid this soul is, although it can't compare to Yao Chen, its cultivation level in life was not low either. I'm really lucky today, hehehe..." The Spirit Protector stared directly at Yao Tian Huo with his scarlet eyes and laughed in a sinister voice.

That's what they said, but the Spirit Protector didn't make any rash moves and seemed very cautious.

"Old Yao, dealing with those Soul Envoy within the great formation is up to you."

"No problem, but I've seen the Hall of Souls's Myriad Souls Devouring Spirit Formation before. If you kill too many Soul Body released from it, it will create a Ferocious Soul. That's the purpose of the Ferocious Soul Myriad Souls Devouring Spirit Formation. At that time, it's like the opponent has another Dou Zong powerhouse. If I take action, I can't control myself from affecting those souls. The Ferocious Soul will appear even sooner. Are you sure there's no problem?" Yao Tian Huo had never seen Xiao Ming take action before, so he was a little worried.

"No problem," Xiao Ming said casually, having already seen through the trickery of the formation.

Those Soul Envoy only sensed beings above the Dou Ling, while the weaker Cloud Mist Sect Disciples were largely unaffected. Whenever Misty Cloud Sect Disciples or a powerful individual killed a soul, a pure soul would escape into the black mist in the sky.

Clearly, there's something fishy going on.

"Oh, right, remember to take good care of the strongmen from the Jia Ma Empire later. After all, they suffered an undeserved calamity. Hmm, bring Yun Shan along too," Xiao Ming said to Yao Tian Huo.

Then he addressed Xiao Yi Xian.

"Xian'er, go to Zi Yan's side."

"But what about those two Hall of Souls Protector..."

"Leave it to me. If the Ferocious Soul appears, you go and stop it."

After giving his instructions, Xiao Ming immediately transformed into a fiery red shadow and rushed towards the two protectors.
