The person in front of him didn't seem to be gloating at all, so Wan Feiyu simply voiced his anger.
"It's all because of this protective mountain formation! Even the life-saving pills my master gave me couldn't withstand it! But thankfully..."
A cunning expression flashed across Wan Feiyu's face, clearly indicating that he already had a new plan in mind.
I'm not going to throw my life away!
But someone else can die in your place!
"Senior Brother Ning, you must be having a tough time too, right?"
Ning Ziming was also indignant, while Wan Feiyu continued to speak.
"Fortunately, I have already destroyed most of the array's foundation. It's just a pity that I don't have the follow-up power. If the array can repair itself, all my previous efforts will have been in vain!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Ning Ziming's eyes. He had experienced the power of this mountain-protecting formation before, and logically speaking, the person in front of him should not have such ability.
But upon closer reflection, Wan Feiyu, being a member of Qing Song Feng, would naturally have no shortage of rare and precious elixirs, and perhaps he possessed some means to disrupt the formation.
Seeing that Ning Ziming made no move, Wan Feiyu continued to seduce her.
"Senior Brother Ning, if possible, I think you might be able to break the formation!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Ziming felt even more eager, but remembering how she had just been forced into that situation, she felt it was somewhat unlikely.
"Senior Brother Wan, you're joking. You didn't see what just happened. A disciple of my Divine Sword Peak almost died!"
Seeing the person in front of him so readily admitting defeat, Wan Feiyu simply took out a Spirit Explosion Pill.
"Senior brother, do you know what this is?"
Ning Ziming swallowed hard. He knew the value of the Exploding Spirit Pill, but he also knew about the backlash it could cause.
"You're not thinking of giving it to me, are you? This is a cultivator's last resort; they'll explode and die after the battle. I can't let my life go to waste!"
Upon hearing this, Wan Feiyu's face broke into a sly grin, and he whispered in Ning Ziming's ear.
"Senior brother, this was personally refined by my master. This is an enhanced version. Consuming it can unleash a cultivator's potential and elevate them from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage in a short period of time!"
"With this, Senior Brother, are you still worried about breaking the formation?"
These words ignited Ning Ziming's passion, boosting his strength by an entire major realm. Although it was only for a short time, it was enough for him to feel the exhilaration of power.
"Senior Brother Wan, why aren't you eating?"
Wan Feiyu sighed bitterly.
"In this desperate situation, I had no choice but to take the life-saving pill first. If you don't believe me, then all my efforts will have been in vain!"
Wan Feiyu deliberately showed a disappointed expression, and just as he was about to take the pill back, Ning Zimo grabbed it.
"It seems this is the opportunity that heaven has prepared for me. This time, I will have a good look at that formation!"
Watching Ning Ziming's departing figure, Wan Feiyu chuckled wickedly to himself.
Being able to advance to a higher realm in a short time is indeed impressive, but it's not without its side effects.
It will stimulate the spiritual root, and if the spiritual root is damaged, one will be unable to cultivate again in this lifetime.
For Wan Feiyu, it was just another way to eliminate one more of his future rivals!
On Qingfeng.
While Xiao Feng was still asleep, excited voices came from outside the door.
"Junior brother, wake up! Do you know how many spirit stones Qingfeng earned this morning alone?"
Xiao Feng impatiently kicked off his blanket, got up with a helpless expression, and opened the door.
"Senior sister, how much can you get with 100 spirit stones per hour?"
Zhao Yuwei, however, wore a mysterious expression, seemingly not intending to tell Xiao Feng at all, and instead pointed directly in the direction of the teleportation array.
Left with no other choice, Xiao Feng had to follow Zhao Yuwei to the center of the teleportation array.
However, when he saw the accumulated numbers, Xiao Feng couldn't help but gasp.
Five figures!
In just one morning?
Are there really that many people cutting down bamboo?
After much thought, Xiao Feng finally understood. It was probably because some unyielding individuals wanted to test the strength of the formation, which ultimately triggered the killing formation, resulting in the formation stripping them of all their spirit stones.
Serves you right!
Cursing under his breath, Xiao Feng exchanged all the spirit stones and piled them up like a small mountain in front of the two of them.
This completely stunned Zhao Yuwei. Since arriving at the sect, she had never seen so many spirit stones, especially in just one morning.
There will definitely be more of them in the future!
"Junior brother, we really owe you a lot this time. Now, Qingfeng will have income from now on!"
Xiao Feng didn't say much, but he was worried about those guys who forced their way into the formation. If they really lost their lives, he would probably have to take responsibility for them later.
"Senior sister, why don't we go up the mountain and see who's sending us the money!"
Zhao Yuwei naturally wouldn't refuse this request. People are all the same; it's like playing a simulation game—she also wants to see where her income comes from.
Within the mountain-protecting formation.
Ning Ziming and Shi Lei forced their way in again, and this time the great tremor changed once more.
The terrifying beams of light ceased, replaced by a rain of swords filling the sky.
Ning Ziming forcefully used his sword to defend himself, thus creating a safe space for Shi Lei.
Shi Lei is from Divine Sword Peak, but he is not only a sword cultivator. He also has an almost obsessive love for formations, so naturally he was indispensable in breaking the formation this time.
"Junior brother, are you ready yet? Quickly break the formation!"
Seeing the attack growing stronger and stronger, and his own sword developing cracks, Ning Zimo couldn't help but urge Shi Lei on.
Shi Lei also frowned, this was different from the array he had encountered before.
This mountain-protecting formation is composed of multiple combined formations, and its attack capabilities vary depending on the target.
There's no way to break it!
"Senior brother, if you can't handle this, let's retreat!"
Upon hearing that sound, Ning Ziming felt a surge of despair and screamed in despair.
"Still trying to retreat? This protective mountain formation has already drained all the spirit stones from your body!"
Want to leave!
Out of spirit stones!
Seeing this, Shi Lei started muttering to himself.
"The Southwest Eight Gates, the Death Gate, face the Wei and Shen directions... the Life Gate is opposite, go Northeast!"
"Senior brother, I've found the exit point of this formation. Let's retreat together!"
After saying that, Shi Lei took off like the wind and headed northeast. However, after taking only two steps, a wooden box for storing spirit stones appeared in front of the two of them.
"Please throw in spirit stones, or the attack will intensify, and it will be a fight to the death!"
"Nonsense!"
Shi Lei kicked out, and the next second, a rain of swords formed a dense sword array.
An attack is coming...
