However, that strike was locked by the rules of spiritual power, making it impossible for it to miss.
"Isn't that surprising?"
Xu Nian, who stood with his hands behind his back in mid-air, chuckled lightly, "I told you, this is my domain, and you have no chance to struggle."
Shen Qian ignored Xu Nian's taunts and activated his Eye of Truth again. Perhaps because Nie Han had triggered the formation's mechanism, he saw the abnormality on Guo Zhouyuan and the others this time.
A faint black mist swirled around the three of them, making their figures appear sometimes ethereal and sometimes solid, as if they were constantly switching between soul and physical form.
Gazing at the black mist, Chen Qian sensed a familiar yet unfamiliar Daoist aura.
The feeling was familiar because he had seen a similar feeling in Bai Fei before, and Bai Fei, as a man who had died once, cultivated the "Yin-Yang" Dao.
The reason it was unfamiliar was that the Daoist principles contained within the black mist were clearly at a higher level than those that Bai Fei had mastered.
The next level in the Yin-Yang principle is "life and death"!
That's right, it's one of the seven supreme laws, "life and death"!
"You cultivate the Great Dao of 'Life and Death'?"
Shen Qian looked at Xu Nian, who was controlling the formation, and was extremely surprised.
The representative figure of this "path" is the fallen King Qin Guang. As the supreme path, its difficulty is self-evident. No wonder Xu Nian is so troublesome, and even the third senior brother turns pale at the mention of his name.
"You saw right through me again."
Xu Nian shrugged and chuckled, “That’s right, this is the domain born from the combination of my ‘Dao’ and formations, and it’s also a trump card that I don’t usually use easily.”
“But even a falling star couldn’t kill you, Chen Qian, you make me dare not be arrogant.”
“They are within my domain, and their lives can be switched at any time. Tell me, how do you kill someone who is already ‘dead’?”
"Sinking forward, give up. Become a member of my Ghost Realm. I have a premonition that if I can devour your remains, I can take that final step!"
Ghostly energy surged, and Xu Nian's laughter grew increasingly wild. Meanwhile, Guo Zhouyuan and the other two, shrouded in black mist, sneered and once again attacked Shen Qian.
A life-or-death swap?
Shen Qian frowned deeply. In other words, unless he broke the formation or killed Xu Nian in a very short time, any of his attacks would be ineffective against Guo Zhouyuan and the other two.
He hadn't expected Xu Nian to value him so much, resorting to her strongest methods without any hesitation.
"You're cheating, you fucking bastard!"
Looking at Xu Nian, who stood in mid-air like the lord of hell, Shen Qian's brows suddenly relaxed, and then he sighed.
Xu Nian's formation was no longer an ordinary array, but a domain containing the laws of life and death!
Xu Nian, with his cultivation level of Mountain and Sea Realm, displayed methods typically reserved for kings and nobles, which is why Shen Qian accused him of cheating.
"Then I'm sorry."
Shen Qian shook his head and smiled, and to the astonishment of Guo Zhouyuan and the others, he suddenly put away the Mountain and River Blade.
