g of spirit herbs in spiritual fields means only one harvest per year. On the other hand, alchemists are extremely scarce, so much so that at this time, elixirs are nearly 10% more expensive than usua...He's been caught! Bing Jiao's face was ashen. He and Xue Diao reacted swiftly, but they were still a step too late.

Even if the opponent were to fight them both at the same time, and break through their two methods of restraint, it would still make Ice Dragon and Co. feel a little better psychologically. At least the gap wasn't so large that they were completely outmatched. They still had hope of breaking free with a good fight.

The two in front had already made their move, striking with all their might, but their attacks landed as if on empty air. They felt the discomfort of it, yet couldn't even gauge the opponent's depth.

>

The snow sculpture's attack missed, and its body had already transformed into a white bolt of lightning, disappearing into the air. The joint effort failed to stop Lu Xia Tian immediately. The snow sculpture no longer held much hope of defeating this powerful enemy. Relying on its speed, it first tried to escape before considering anything else.

As for whether the Ice Flood Dragon is alive or dead, it no longer matters.

A plume of black flames rose, and within it, a black lotus bloomed. The black flames transformed into a wall of fire, with pieces of black lotus petals floating inside.

The snow sculpture's wings flapped, unleashing countless ice-wind blades that clashed with the black lotus petals. The blades shattered upon impact, but they also completely neutralized the petals.

The snow falcon's speed was also halted in the raging black flames. The snow falcon flew without any hesitation in another direction.

Another black flame rose, blooming with a black lotus within. The snow sculpture's advance was once again halted.

Bingjiao here also encountered the same situation.

“What kind of formation is this” Bingjiao and Xuediao both fell silent. Since they couldn't break out of Lu Xiaoteng's formation immediately, the two weren't as eager anymore.

He would focus his attention on Lu Xiaitian's direction, thinking quickly in his mind, racking his brains for a way to break the formation.

“The Fire of Ye City knows no bounds! Lu Xia Tian’s figure appeared within the formation.”

“When did you begin setting up the formation” Xuediao was rather indignant. He and Bingjiao didn't even know when Lu Xia Tian had set it up, which felt like a great humiliation to them.

If this matter cannot be clarified, even if we are defeated and die in battle, it will be a humiliating death.

"I started setting up the formations when I began alchemy. You were all too focused on the pills and ignored the transmission of alchemical energy. It's only natural that you would fall victim."

Lu Xia Tian didn't deliberately conceal it. After breaking through to a new realm, his strength had improved in all aspects.

It's not just about attack and defense anymore, many methods have become more covert, almost undetectable to lower-ranking or equally strong opponents.

"I see!" The snow carving and ice dragon suddenly realized, their fear of Lu Xia Tian now reaching deep into their bones. They had paid attention during his alchemy, but from beginning to end, they hadn't noticed the slightest flaw.

“We are willing to offer our most precious possessions for a way out. Please, fellow cultivator, spare us and leave us a lifeline. What do you think” Bingjiao was still making her final effort.

"Do you think I'd believe you" Lu Xia Tian smiled nonchalantly. "Since the formation is complete, how can we take it back without a fight"

Before Lu Xiaitian's voice could even finish, within the grand formation, black lotuses bloomed one after another. A surging black flame spread across the sky and earth. Under the raging flames, twelve colossal Buddhas simultaneously rose their heads from the sea of fire.

These blazing giant Buddhas, their faces full of killing intent, had eyes that were empty and lifeless. A flaming giant hand struck down. The Ice Jiao and Snow Sculpture were simultaneously enveloped by twelve palm shadows, feeling as if the entire sky had darkened.

Boom boom boom, waves of explosions resounded as the two cultivators at the Yuanshen realm stage naturally refused to sit idly by and die. They exerted all their strength to resist, smashing countless palm prints. However, the twelve giant Buddhas were condensed from the power of the formation. As the power of the formation remained undiminished, the attacks continued relentlessly.

The Bing Jiao and Xue Diao were truly formidable opponents. The two figures darted within the formation at an astonishing speed, snow swirling and icy winds howling.

A massive amount of black flames were either neutralized or frozen. Jagged shadows swam throughout the formation. The snow carving figures darted around like white lightning.

Lu Xia Tian just stood still above the formation, adjusting the power of the formation. This Yehuo Wujie Buddha Realm's entire formation wasn't particularly strong.

>

The method of setting up a formation by transferring dan qi is indeed mysterious and extraordinary, with extremely high concealment. However, the dan qi that spreads out has a relatively limited capacity and cannot directly kill these two powerful beings.

After all, the other party is not just a good-for-nothing, but an old monster at the Nascent Soul stage.

After a fierce battle, both Bingjiao and Xuediao were heavily exhausted. However, they had also discovered that the formation was weakening under this direct assault, and Lu Xiaoteng's ability to replenish its power couldn't keep up with the rate of consumption. If time dragged on, breaking the formation would only be a matter of time.

>

“Brother Diao, let's put in more effort and try our best to break through the formation as soon as possible. Delaying any longer won't benefit anyone.” Bingjiao roared, its emerald ice-jade orb darted back and forth, shattering several palm shadows in succession.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"This formation is nothing special!" After Xue Diao's claws broke through several palm shadows, he felt a slight ease in his heart. The other party's formation wasn't invincible.

“It’s not just about relying on formations to deal with you.” If it were the complete Yehuo Wujie Buddha Realm, let alone these two guys, even if there were twice as many, they would have to answer for it. However, it takes careful planning, and using Qi in a short time to set up the formation can only be considered a simplified version. It’s only natural that the power is greatly reduced.

Being able to wear down Bing Jiao and Xue Diao to this extent has already achieved Lu Xia Tian's expected effect.

“Hurry, take the pill!” At this moment, inside the Qingguo barrier, figures like Xiang Kuang, Heilong, Luo Ping’er, Wen Tingdao, and Wen Yan, a group of powerful individuals, each swallowed a crimson, crystal-like pill. After the medicinal power activated, a fiery blaze seemed to ignite within their bodies.

Lu Xiaitian’s hand flashed with the Zhen Yao Pagoda, causing Bing Jiao and Xue Dian to tremble. They thought Lu Xiaitian was about to use even more powerful abilities. However, a dazzling silver light emerged, revealing countless powerful Da Luo Jinxian-level warriors.

“Another powerhouse at the Nascent Soul realm, looks like I can have some fun.” Black Dragon laughed heartily, and in the eyes of Nine-Reach Mountain, Zhu Yuqing, Flame North, and others, there was also excitement.

Within the Qingguo barrier, some have already begun to ascend to the realm of Yuanshen. This naturally means they also have great hope of reaching such a state.

>

The most direct and effective way to understand the realm of the Divine Spirit Body is to fight against those who have reached that realm, engaging in life-or-death battles. Under normal circumstances, they would rarely have this qualification, and even standing before their opponents would be a difficult feat.

This isn't the first time they've fought with powerful beings of this level alongside Lu Xia Tian. They've also witnessed the entire process of a Da Luo Jinxian ascending to the realm of Yuanshen.

Although the numerous killings on the fairy and demon battlefield were more dangerous, they also greatly increased their chances of promotion.

Kong Shan and Yan Ping vanished in a flash, charging toward the snow sculpture first. The Golden Gu Demon Monk, who was originally about the same strength as them, had taken the lead already. They had been stuck at their current level for too long; whenever there was even a slight chance, they didn't want to delay any further.

“Even a tiny bead dares to compete with the brilliance of the bright moon!” The snow sculpture was furious. How many years had it been since he had been provoked by a junior like this The other party now even wanted to ride on his neck!

The snow sculpture flapped its wings, and a large amount of snowflakes condensed into feathered arrows that shot towards Kongshan, Yanping, and Jiuren Mountain.

Kong Shan transformed into a gigantic peacock, its wings flapping, unleashing billowing flames that surged forth. Alternating with Yan Ping's pillar of fire and Feng Huo's whirling blades of wind and fire, they charged ahead as the first wave.

Several methods quickly vanished in the fierce conflict. It was simply impossible for them to contend with a powerhouse like Xuediao, even delaying his speed by a fraction of a second.

Mount Juren, Zhu Yuqing transformed into a giant sword with his body, blade shadows flashing. Chu Zhaoyang's sun-drenched golden giant palm and Zi Qing's mountain-like club shadow followed suit. This stalemate lasted for a short while, but it soon collapsed under Xuediao's simple yet powerful attack.

>

Ye Tong, Ye Jian, the Earth Store's Twelve Winged Scorpion Demon, Luo Ping'er, Xiang Hua, and the seventh star dragon sparrow primordial spirit who had cultivated the Soul Yuan Sword Dao and slashed out a sword shadow, along with a demonic knife, as the third wave, managed to barely neutralize the remaining power of the snow carving.

Damn it! The snow sculpture was furious, even though his strength had been weakened by half due to the palm strikes from the Fiery Giant Buddha unleashed by the formation. To be blocked by such a group of insignificant things still filled him with immense shame.

The enraged Snow Sculpture launched another attack, but similar to before, its power was weakened by the formation's might. Subsequently, in three waves, over a dozen Da Luo Jinxian-level experts stepped forward, further weakening the Snow Sculpture's attacks.

This is a test.

The situation for Bing Jiao is similar. He faces a group of dragons primarily at the level of Daluo Jinxian. His strength is slightly stronger than Xue Diao's, but these dragons are generally much stronger than Ye Tong and Ye Jian.

Especially Wen Yan, Wen Tingdao's strength came on strong and surpassed Kong Shan and Yan Ping, who had accumulated the most strength before. The strength of the other dragon clans had also improved significantly. Facing the siege of these dragon clans, Bing Jiao was in a much worse situation than Xue Diao for a time.

After several attempts to break through, he was still blocked. The ice dragon couldn't help but get impatient.

Even though Lü Xiaotiān was the most powerful, he only controlled the formation, using this group of juniors and the declining power of the formations to hold him and the snow sculpture back.

The further they dragged it, the more their situation became worrisome.

The BiChen Ice Flood Dragon Pearl transformed into countless ice crystal dragon shadows, breaking through the Black Flame Giant Buddha's obstruction. Dozens of Daluo Jinxian-level dragons completely enveloped it.

Wen Tingdao's sword slashed down, opening a chasm across the mountains and seas. The blade light transformed into a monstrous wave, surging outwards only to be shattered by the Ice Crystal Serpent Shadow. The water surged back, throwing Wen Tingdao backwards.

“Dragon Rainbow Sword Gang!” Wen Yan let out a low cry, her sword light slashing out, transforming into dozens of awe-inspiring sword gangs, golden like a rainbow, vibrating with power.

The dragon shadow formed by the sword gang struggled desperately with the serpent shadow, though it was constantly torn apart. It persisted for a longer time than other powerful fighters' methods.

Wen Ting glanced at Wen Yan. In terms of bloodline alone, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Bloodline was only second to the True Dragon's in nobility.

At this point, Wen Yan's strength had surpassed that of all others, becoming the second strongest dragon after Lu Xia Tian. While Wen Tingdao felt a sense of pride and satisfaction, he also couldn't help but feel a spark of competitiveness.

Bloodline is crucial for dragons, but his is not weak either. And dragons are known for their intelligence, and many ultimately reach higher realms.

It wasn't unacceptable that he had been surpassed by Wen Yan, this five-clawed golden dragon. However, he wouldn't allow the other party to pull their cultivation down too much.

“Fire Domain Dragon!” Ying Feng roared, facing the formidable Bing Jiao, unleashing his most powerful attack.

On Ying Xuanming's side, the gun shadows were like forests, and the power of the Netherworld Dragon Soul Gun had also soared to its peak.

All the dragon clans wouldn't easily let go of the opportunity to fight a powerful being like Bing Jiao, who possesses a primordial spirit and demon body. Every encounter in battle would become a cornerstone for them to break through to higher realms.

The Ice Flood Dragon relentlessly repelled the powerful dragon clan members, and several more shadowy figures lunged at him. Even though the power of these shadowy figures was still insignificant to him now, it still gave him a feeling of bloodline suppression. Besides Wen Yan, the five-clawed golden dragon with higher cultivation, it was Xiang Kuang who posed the greatest threat to him.

Bing Jiao dodged the wave of attacks from the Dragon Clan. Her eyes flashed with ice light, which transformed into several sharp needles that shot towards Xiang Kuang's head like lightning.

Before they even made contact, Xiang Kuang felt as if his head was about to be pierced. The disparity in their cultivation levels was too vast, something that could not be bridged by ordinary means.

"Zu Jiao Jie!" Xiang Kuang naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for death. His hands moved in succession, sending out waves of demonic energy, while a patch of dark blue light flew from his mouth. Rotating it formed an eight-dragon pattern forming a barrier, encasing the entire person within.

Bang bang bang, this Zu Jiao barrier was still difficult to maintain under the attack of the Bing Jiao. It only managed to hold on for a short while before being pierced by countless attacks.

The mighty Dragon King of the East China Sea, with his formidable Dragon Saber, had already struck the Ice Jiao repeatedly.

Bing Jiao wanted to eliminate Xiang Mang, who was like a thorn in his side. He deployed more power for this attack, leaving some gaps in other directions. As a result, the attacks of East Sea Dragon King and Ying Feng arrived one after another.

However, the dragon soldiers attacking him were quickly blasted away. Although they left some deep and shallow marks on the ice dragon's body, the astonishing recoil force also caused the East Sea Dragon King and Ying Feng to feel a surge of blood.

Had it not been for the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Yan's Dragon Shadow Claw Technique blocking several ice blades, with the combined strength of East China Sea Dragon King and Ying Feng, there would have been casualties by now.

...Ke Xiangkuang here was uncaring, but Wen Yan, on the other hand, couldn't help herself.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Suddenly, several sword shadows slashed down, it was Wen Tingdao's attack again. The sharp sword shadows contained boundless water-like energy, viscous and vast.

The ice spear flew within a foot of Xiang Kuang's body before being deflected. Xiang Kuang moved slightly, slipping through the gap just as it passed.

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!

"Thanks. This Ice Jiao is quite powerful." Xiang Kuang thanked Wen Tingdao, "If it weren't for you, I would have died right here."

This was a perilous move, deflecting the ice needle with such skill. Even Wen Tingdao, standing where he was at that moment, faced the immense pressure of the Ice Dragon's attack. To strike back with such precision in this situation, without hesitation, and to still maintain control of the battlefield – it was a display of extraordinary prowess.

Xiang Kuang was also a war fanatic, but he had to admit that Wen Tingdao's few sword strikes just now were quite impressive. This dragon clan member was no inferior to him in terms of battle talent. Even with his Ten Thousand Domains Jiao Zu bloodline, he might not even surpass most dragons, yet catching up to Wen Tingdao would be far from easy.

"It's just a small matter, let's fight quickly. It seems like other old monsters are coming from afar. If we delay any longer, the Dragon Lord might even take action himself." Wen Ting urged.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!fear was still etched on their faces. The tremors in the world grew more pronounced, with a power akin to moving mountains and toppling seas that made it impossible for them to suppress their terror....
