Entering the Formation to Slay Demons; The Winner Treats
"No!"
Seeing this, the two True Person, Bi Yanshu and Bi Yanhong, stopped attacking the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation" and turned to the crowd, saying, "It seems that this time we still need to combine internal and external methods to break the formation. We need someone to enter the ' Ten Thousand Demons Formation ' to cooperate with us in slaying demons from within and breaking the formation."
Bi Yanshu spoke, his gaze swept over several Third Tier Purple Mansion Stage cultivators from Eighth-Grade True Spirit Lineage, including Kong Wenxuan, Ya Zhaoying, and Jiao Jingxuan.
Without a doubt, the most suitable people to enter the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation" to slay demons and break the formation were these few cultivators at the Purple Mansion Stage.
It would be too dangerous for the other Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment disciples to enter the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation". Even with the attacks of the two True Person of the Bi Household and the projection of "Bifang True Spirit Star", which restrained most of the power of the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation" and the power of the Fourth Tier Demon Race and Demon Beast within it, the tens of thousands of Demon Race and Demon Beast beasts alone would be enough to pose a huge threat and cause casualties to these Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment disciples.
"Third Uncle, Sixth Uncle, we are willing to enter the battle to slay the demon!"
From within the Bi Household's army, several disciples at the Third Tier Purple Mansion Stage immediately stepped forward and raised their voices.
However, in response to their request, True Person Bi Yanshu shook his head and said, "No, you must stay outside to oversee the ' Bifang True Spirit Battle Formation ' and cooperate with us to gather enough forces outside to launch an attack and contain the main force of the ' Ten Thousand Demons Formation '."
"The stronger our attacks from the outside, the stronger the restraining effect, and the faster we can break through the formation."
Seeing that Kong Wenxuan and the others did not volunteer, Bi Yanshu True Person Yanshu turned to them and said, "Fellow Daoists Kong, the Ya Household, and the Jiao Household, would you be willing to enter the formation and kill the Demon Race and Demon Beast that make up the formation, thus helping us break it?"
As he spoke, he took out several jade pendants carved with the image of "Bifang" and said, "Don't worry, the main force of the ' Ten Thousand Demons Formation ' has been restrained outside, and there shouldn't be any power above the Third Tier attacking you inside."
"Furthermore, I can lend you these ' Bifang Jade Pendant ' temporarily. If you encounter an enemy you cannot defeat, you can activate the power within these pendants to protect yourself. Even ordinary Fifth Tier enemies will find it difficult to break through their defenses!"
Kong Wenxuan's eyes lit up when he saw the "Bifang Jade Pendant" in the other party's hand. He had witnessed the power of the "Bifang Jade Pendant". It was with the protection of the "Bifang Jade Pendant" bestowed by the Bifang Commandery that he was able to venture alone into the "Demon Race Secret Realm" under "South Lake" with his Second Tier Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, without fear of many Third Tier or even Fourth Tier attacks.
Therefore, he immediately bowed and announced loudly, "Master Bi, I am willing to enter the battle!"
"Very well, Magistrate Kong, you have shown great courage in fighting the enemy. After this battle, I will certainly take the initiative to report your achievements and request rewards for your Kong Household!"
Bi Yanshu spoke, he took out a "Bifang Jade Pendant" and threw it over.
Kong Wenxuan immediately caught it, probing it with his Spiritual Consciousness. He confirmed that the power contained within this "jade pendant" was no less than that of the one given to him by the "Bifang Commandery." He beamed with joy and bowed again, saying, "Thank you, Steward Bi!"
Seeing this, the Purple Mansion cultivators from the Ya Household who came to their aid, including Ya Zhaoying and Jiao Jingxuan Jiao Household, all bowed and accepted the mission to enter the formation and slay the demon.
Bi Yanshu, the head of the household affairs office, nodded repeatedly in satisfaction, praised the men, explained that he would recommend them for merit after the battle, and then gave each of them a "Bifang Jade Pendant".
"Fifth Uncle." Kong Wenxuan put on the "Bifang Jade Pendant," ready to enter the formation, then looked at his fifth uncle Kong Yuluo, and said, "After I enter the formation, the Lineage team will be under your command. I don't ask for merit, but only for no mistakes."
"Understood." Fifth Kong Yuluo immediately nodded in agreement.
Immediately afterwards, Kong Wenxuan arrived in front of the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation," while the other six cultivators from the two Purple Mansion Stage families, including Ya Zhaoying and Jiao Jingxuan, were also ready to arrive at the front of the formation.
"Haha..." Ya Household Purple Mansion cultivator, County Commandant of Fire Crow County, Ya Xingheng, laughed and said, "Fellow cultivators, since we're all going into battle together to kill the enemy, how about we bet on who can kill more enemies?"
"No problem, the winner will treat us after the battle!" Jiao Jing'en, Purple Mansion cultivator from the Jiao Household and the county magistrate of "Wildebeest County," immediately replied with a smile. However, he cunningly insisted that the winner treat them instead of the loser, clearly knowing that the Jiao Household's heritage, Bloodline Divine Ability, and other methods were not suited for combat.
Moreover, in the previous battles in the "Mystic Crane Secret Realm" and Black Crane County City, they had already witnessed the combat power and lethality of Kong Wenxuan and the three Purple Mansion cultivators from the Ya Household. They understood that in a simple comparison of the results of killing enemies, the Jiao Household members would definitely lose. Therefore, they directly asked the winner to treat them to a meal.
When Ya Xingheng had proposed the contest, heard Jiao Jing'en's words, he was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was going on and said with a smile, "Alright, the winner will get the most merit points, so he should treat us!"
As they spoke, the members of the Ya Household were the first to rush into the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation" that covered the Great Marsh ahead.
Hundreds of "Fire Crow Clone" surrounded them, some protecting them, others attacking various parts of the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation".
"Walk!"
At this moment, the three members of the Jiao Household, led by Jiao Jing'en, activated their magical Treasure Artifact and wielded the Treasure Artifact forged from the Bloodline Divine Ability "Earth and Wood Single Horn" as they charged into the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation".
Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan did not hesitate or delay any longer. He directly activated the "Five Elements Divine Swords" to set up the "Great Five Elements Sword Formation" around his body, and then used the sword formation to attack into the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation".
Once inside the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation," all he could see was an overwhelming barrage of demonic light and Yao Qi, as if he had left the "True Spirit Realm" illuminated by starlight and entered a "Demon Realm." There was no Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and earth around him to refine and restore his Law Power and Spiritual Consciousness; all he could sense was the vast and distorted Yao Qi.
Therefore, Kong Wenxuan and the others could only rely on pills to restore their Law Power power and Spiritual Consciousness while fighting in the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation". Before entering the formation this time, each of them had prepared enough pills.
Moreover, these powerful and distorted Yao Qi and lights can affect their Spiritual Consciousness perception and vision, making it difficult for them to see far away. They can even suppress their Law Power, Spiritual Consciousness, and combat strength, thus weakening their fighting ability.
Conversely, the Demon Race and Demon Beast in this "Ten Thousand Demons Formation," surrounded by the vast, dense, and distorted Yao Qi and light, enjoy all the advantages of timing, location, and human support. Not only is their combat power enhanced and amplified by the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation," but they can also easily mobilize and stir the immense power of the demonic Yao Qi and light within the formation during battles, greatly increasing the power of their attacks.
It was precisely because of these characteristics of the "Ten Thousand Demons Formation"—its suppression and weakening of bloodline cultivators, and its enhancement and strengthening of Demon Race and Demon Beast —that Kong Wenxuan and the others did not allow the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment disciples of various families to enter the formation to slay demons. Instead, they, the seven Purple Mansion Stage cultivators, entered the formation to slay demons and break the formation.
