The tempering of the Dark God Flower is not simple, it must be tempered perfectly. Although Ling Tian has refined elixirs and tempered perfect medicinal liquids, those are low-level spiritual medicines. The Dark God Flower is close to being an immortal product. To temper it perfectly requires extremely strong and stable soul control, as well as enough soul power to support this long tempering process.
Ling Tian took a deep breath, his gaze unwavering.
"start!"
Not long after Ling Tian began his tempering, thousands of cultivators gathered at the entrance of the Nether God Gorge. There were disciples from various sects and forces, but upon closer inspection, their eyes were subtly different from those of humans.
Leading the charge was none other than the demon Dalman, who had discovered Ling Tian's secret. He spoke in the language of his Koman tribe, "Fellow tribesmen, our Koman tribe has been planning to invade the human world for millennia, but now we have to expose ourselves early. I've discovered that the Demon Armor Technique, one of our three great demon arts, has appeared here, and it's possessed by a human. This is a crucial moment for our Koman tribe to seize the throne of the demon world. I hope everyone will spare no effort to reclaim it. We will be the Koman tribe's eternal heroes."
"Hero, hero..."
"Very good. Be careful not to let him escape, and be prepared for his counterattack. His magic armor technique has reached the fourth level, so he can't act alone. All of us demons must show our true form and attack him."
Suddenly, demonic energy surged into the sky at the entrance, and demons of various shapes revealed their true forms. They were already quite powerful, and now their aura was even more terrifying after revealing their true forms.
When he was tempering the most important key point, Ling Tian sensed a huge demonic aura coming towards him quickly.
He separated a trace of his divine consciousness and told it to the two monsters and Li Cuimei.
Li Cuimei did not leave. She immediately set up an ancient formation of endless life around her. Her spiritual flame served as the eye of the formation, allowing the formation to obtain endless life force. Although the defense was not super strong, no one below the late Nascent Soul stage could break in. Those who broke in could only be strangled by the two monsters, and she needed to maintain the formation so that she could not escape.
Ling Tian knew that the most dangerous person was Li Cuimei, and those demons would definitely look for the center of the formation as soon as they came in.
So, he separated a trace of his divine consciousness and sent a dragon-killing vine to surround Li Cuimei tightly. Although it was not invincible, it was not so easy to break the dragon-killing vine. It would at least buy him some time, and the two monsters could better play to their strengths.
"It's almost there, you have to hold on."
Ling Tian immersed himself in the precise tempering once again. This Dark God Flower was indeed a spiritual medicine close to the immortal grade, as its structure was too complicated.
Time passed bit by bit. Half an hour later, the outside of the formation was completely surrounded. The leader, Dalman, waved his hand to stop and shouted to a demon beside him, "Kors, Kanas, go and test it out. Be careful."
The two demons nodded, walked over, raised their sharp claws, and launched a fierce attack on the formation. Coles' palm slowly inserted into it, while Kanas on the other side was repelled and took a few steps back.
"Could it be because of the realm?"
Dahlman walked over and tried it himself. Having reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, he entered smoothly, more smoothly than Coles. He understood and immediately shouted to all the demons, "All those in the late Nascent Soul stage and above, follow me and break through to destroy the center of the formation. The rest of you will attack from the outside. Once the formation is broken, everyone attack."
He gave the order, then took the lead to break through the formation barrier and walked in. As soon as he came in, a silver stick as fast as lightning came down on his head.
With a loud bang, a big hole was smashed into the ground, but there was no scene of a head exploding and blood spurting out as imagined.
"Humph, you dare to sneak attack me? Take my move."
Dalman's glowing claws went straight for the monkey's heart, and the speed was so fast that the monkey could hardly react. The tungsten steel stick arrived in time and blocked the claws at the moment they arrived. A sharp metal collision was heard, and the two figures retreated rapidly.
"Equally matched" was Dalman's evaluation of the divine monkey. He stared at it with a serious expression, thinking that he would not be able to open the formation unless he got rid of the monkey.
Feeling that many tribesmen were coming in, he was about to call them to help when a flash of lightning suddenly appeared and a ferocious head was thrown high into the air.
"Be careful, this is a mutant golden-winged eagle, everyone gather together."
Another prestigious demon shouted, and after that, dozens of demons who came in later gathered together. The Golden-winged Peng Eagle knew that there was no chance for a sneak attack, so it could only circle around them to look for a breakthrough. These demons were also helpless. Although their realm was not inferior to its, their speed was simply not enough to reach it.
Dalman was entangled by the ancient divine monkey and could not get away for a while. Moreover, this divine monkey was also very smart. Once Dalman wanted to break the defense of the dragon-slaying vine and kill Li Cuimei, it immediately went to kill those late-stage demons, forcing Dalman to give up. He knew very well that if he went to break the eye of the formation, the divine monkey would cooperate with the golden-winged Roc, and his subordinates would also be broken in defense, and it would only be a matter of time before they were killed. Once he lost them, he was not sure he could kill Ling Tian inside.
Li Cuimei was also feeling uncomfortable inside the Dragon-Slaying Vine. She was already feeling a lot of pressure. Although she had the Spirit Breath Flame, her realm was only the late Nascent Soul stage after all. Hundreds of people outside were constantly attacking the formation, and her consumption was very great. If it weren't for the pills Ling Tian gave her, she would have collapsed long ago.
"If this continues, I won't be able to hold on for more than a quarter of an hour. If I break, Ling Tian will be in danger."
Li Cuimei seemed to have made a decision, with determination in her eyes.
Suddenly, Li Cuimei in the Dragon-Slaying Vine cage chanted some special ancient inscriptions, and wisps of green light began to emanate from her body, gradually filling the entire formation.
During the battle, Dalman's heart skipped a beat. This green light made him feel very uncomfortable. As the light grew stronger, a dangerous aura followed.
"Not good, everyone quickly escape from this formation."
"My body is the furnace, my blood is the flame, I breathe in and out, melting the heavens and refining the earth!"
Dalman's shout was a little slower. As soon as he left the formation, Li Cuimei's chanting ended. The remaining dozens of demons were immediately wrapped in a emerald green flame. They didn't even have time to shout before they turned into a pile of ashes. Even the space rings on their bodies were burned into gas.
Such means made the two monsters terrified. If they were targeted, there would be no hope of escape.
"Cough cough cough~"
Li Cuimei coughed violently, blood spurted out continuously, and her breath became weaker and weaker. She forcibly used the ancient technique, but her body could not withstand the backlash of the secret technique.
