When Wen Chi saw Xuan Yu and Feng Gui trying to break through the barrier he had set up, he laughed and said, "This formation cannot be broken by one person alone."
Xuan Yu certainly knew this, and he said to Jing Nan, "It will take eight people to break this formation at the same time, and it would be best if they could extinguish the spiritual fire at the same time."
This is indeed difficult, because the innate spiritual fire cannot be extinguished by ordinary power, and it is also necessary to ensure that they are extinguished synchronously... Without the cultivation of Nascent Soul, I am afraid they cannot do it.
Jing Nan pointed at the generals behind him and said, "We have the people." Behind Jing Nan, Yun Zheng and the others were already prepared. Not to mention eight people, they have even ten!
Jing Nan quickly assigned them: "Yun Zheng, Zhonghua, Lao Dao Mao Buyan stand in the southeast, northwest, and northeast of the barrier. The Zhou brothers, Xiao Yu Mao, and I stand in the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest. You listen to my orders and be ready to extinguish the spiritual fire at any time."
At Jing Nan's command, Yun Zheng and the others stood at the designated positions along the barrier.
Xiaoxiao hugged Du Heng and asked nervously, "What about us?" Everyone was working, and only he and Du Heng were watching and not helping?
Xuan Yu pondered for a moment, and then he carried Du Heng to the east of the barrier, just behind Yun Zheng. He laid Du Heng flat on the ground, and as Xuan Yu chanted and tapped his fingers, a complex formation appeared under Du Heng.
The formation extended to the west, and the light blue spiritual light enveloped the high platform, and also included Jing Nan and the others in the range of the formation. Unlike the ordinary formation with the center of the formation, the formation arranged by Xuan Yu this time had the center outside the formation, and Du Heng was the center of the formation.
When the formation is running, it will draw spiritual energy from Du Heng, but it will not have much impact on him.
After Xuan Yu arranged the formation, he touched Xiao Xiao's head and said, "Xiao Xiao, you stay here with Du Heng. You can't go anywhere until we finish the battle. Do you understand?"
Xiaoxiao nodded sensibly: "I understand." Then she sat cross-legged in front of Du Heng.
Xuan Yu nodded to Jing Nan: "We can start now." As he spoke, Xuan Yu flew up, and he and Feng Gui were suspended in the air right above the scarlet red barrier.
The two drew their swords, and then they rushed towards the red barrier like a stream of light. When the two spirit swords pierced through the red barrier, the barrier flickered slightly.
The barrier is unstable! There are weak spots around it!
Now! Jing Nan raised his hand: "Follow my instructions, three, two, one!"
As soon as Jing Nan finished speaking, the generals standing on all sides drew their weapons, and spiritual lights of different colors came from all directions straight towards the spiritual fire in front of them.
Mao Buyan used the heaviest bow, fearing that his strength was not as good as that of other generals and he could not extinguish the spiritual fire. After Jing Nan gave the order, his longbow and the spiritual energy rolled up by the weapons of other generals hit the barrier at the same time.
There was a crisp cracking sound, and the red barrier could not withstand the simultaneous attack of ten masters and shattered. The next moment, the eight spiritual fires in the barrier were hit by various colored spiritual lights, and there was a slight puffing sound, and the spiritual fires were extinguished at the same time!
In an instant, Xuan Yu and his men completed the action of breaking the barrier and entering the barrier. They attacked Wen Chi from the front and back, and in an instant, Wen Chi was stained with blood.
After the two entered the battle formation, the barrier that Xuan Yu had set up earlier also rose. The spiritual energy of the generals was continuously drawn away, and a huge light blue barrier quickly emerged behind everyone.
Jing Nan told everyone: "Raising the barrier is only the first step. If the eight-clawed fire dragon crawls out of the crack later, our barrier needs to block them."
The generals said in unison: "Yes!"
Wen Chi was no match for Xuan Yu and the others. Even with the Magical Sky Pearl in his hand, he was unable to fight Xuan Yu. Seeing that he was at a disadvantage, he gritted his teeth and said, "What kind of hero is two against one? Xuan Yu, do you dare to fight me in a fair fight!"
Xuan Yu and Feng Gui looked at each other, and he said to Feng Gui: "Xixi, find a way to close the passage, and I will come to meet him."
Feng Gui said in a panic, "Are you kidding me? I'm not good at formations!" Besides, at this point, why bother talking to Wen Chi about morality? Just do it!
However, Feng Gui could also understand Xuan Yu. If his clansmen issued him a declaration of war, he would fight him openly after accepting it.
The crack was getting bigger and bigger. At first it was just a thin crack, then it became a crescent shape. Now it has become a half crescent shape. There is a layer of black membrane in the crack, and many eight-clawed fire dragons are rushing out from under the membrane. One of the eight-clawed fire dragons has torn through the black membrane and stuck out most of its body.
Feng Gui cursed, and he stabbed the back of the neck of the eight-clawed fire dragon with his sword. As the long sword was pulled out, dark red blood spurted out. When the spirit sword came into contact with the blood, it made a slight hissing sound - the blood of the eight-clawed fire dragon could actually corrode the spirit sword!
The fire dragon fell down limply before it could scream, and the fire dragon below it climbed up its body. The fire dragon that lost its support was quickly pulled down by its own kind. Feng Gui saw that the fire dragon under the black membrane was biting the fire dragon that he had just stabbed to death.
The gap was getting bigger and bigger, and the black membrane was getting thinner and thinner. As soon as Feng Gui killed one, another one flew out from the other side. He had to kill the fire dragons that popped out of the gap. Even so, some fire dragons still managed to crawl out of the gap.
The fire dragon that crawled out stood on the gap and roared, and its ugly cry echoed in the huge barrier. After it roared, it rushed towards the barrier. Zhonghua, who was outside the barrier, only felt a strong force hitting his chest.
The formation needed their spiritual energy to support it, and there was no difference between the fire dragon attacking the formation and attacking them directly. They could not retreat at all, as long as they retreated, once the barrier was broken, the first to suffer would be the dragon clan.
Jing Nan and the others increased the input of spiritual energy, and even the fainted Du Heng was silently contributing spiritual energy. The barrier was strengthened at a speed visible to the naked eye. The fire dragon hit the barrier, but the barrier did not move at all.
Just as the Fire Chi was still desperately hitting the barrier, Feng Gui arrived. Dark red rust had already appeared on his spirit sword, and Feng Gui felt distressed and disgusted. He stabbed the Fire Chi's neck with his sword, and suddenly he felt a murderous aura coming from behind him.
Feng Gui flashed to the side, and a dark red light pierced through the head of the falling Fire Chi. Wen Chi's eyes were bloodshot as he shouted at Feng Gui, "Stay away from my people!"
Xuan Yu chopped off one of Wen Chi's arms with a sword: "Don't be distracted when fighting me."
Wen Chi's face turned green, and dark red poison mist flowed out of his mouth. He growled, "Xuan Yu! Die!"
After saying this, Wen Chi transformed into a monster.
This was the first time that everyone saw Chiwen. Just like the shadow he had shown before, he had a dragon head and a fish body. His fins had sharp barbs, and his scales had sharp edges like blades. If you were to be swung by this fish tail, you would be cut into pieces.
The Chiwen also has four arms, two under the dragon head and two under the fish belly. The left arm under the dragon head looks smaller and more tender than the other three. The arm that Xuan Yu cut off just now was Wen Chi's left hand.
Xuan Yu frowned slightly, the Chiwen's self-healing ability was beyond his expectation. If he couldn't cut off his head or crush his heart against such a demon cultivator, he would still be able to heal himself even if he suffered a powerful injury.
Xuan Yu looked at Chiwen's neck. There was a thick bone covering its neck, so it would be a bit troublesome to cut off its neck.
Wen Chi's demon form was small, but his movements were very agile. His whole body was enveloped in the red aura of the Phantom Bead. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of phantoms with different expressions and movements appeared around Xuan Yu. The phantoms rushed forward, and Xuan Yu was soon submerged by Wen Chi's demon form.
Everyone heard a crackling sound coming from the demon form, as well as the sound of flesh being pierced. Everyone's spiritual consciousness could not penetrate the barrier, and everyone could only see Xuan Yu's spiritual sword falling from above.
At this time, a fire dragon quickly jumped out from below, opened its mouth and bit the middle of the spirit sword. With a snapping sound, the Slaughter Heaven Sword broke into two pieces.
The fire dragon raised its head and swallowed the Sky-Slaying Sword in one gulp.
Feng Gui's pupils shrank: "Xuan Yu!" Xuan Yu was a sword cultivator. When sword cultivators fought, they would advance and retreat together with their spirit swords. Normally, the sword was still alive as long as the person was alive. Now that the sword was broken... Feng Gui didn't dare to think about it!
Blood began to drip down from the place where the Chiwen monsters were concentrated. The blood fell on the black film below, and the fire Chi in the black film climbed up like crazy. After a while, dozens of fire Chi crawled out.
Feng Gui began to be unable to take care of himself. The fire chi that came up first were all of good quality. Feng Gui was able to kill the fire chi before simply because they just wanted to crawl out. This time, there were more fire chi, and they focused their attention on Feng Gui.
The fire dragon has eight claws, each of which is extremely sharp. If a fire dragon cuts a knife, even a strong body like Feng Gui will bleed. Feng Gui feels that he is in a mountain of knives at this moment. The fire dragons block him left and right, and he has no place to hide.
Seeing Feng Gui and Xuan Yu at a disadvantage, Jing Nan became anxious: "I want to go in and help them."
But as soon as he left, the barrier would weaken. The generals were in agony, watching the two demon gods being trapped and injured but unable to move. Lao Dao said angrily, "Someone come! It would be good to provide support!"
At this time, a pair of hands appeared on the barrier beside Jing Nan. Jing Nan turned around in surprise and saw Yan Chuan with guilty eyes. Behind the generals stood the dragons with guilty faces. They all woke up at some point.
Jing Nan was surprised and happy: "You are awake?" According to Jing Nan's prediction, it would take a long time for the dragon clan to wake up, so why did they wake up early?
When Jing Nan looked at the formation under his feet, he suddenly understood. The formation set up by Xuan Yu was centered on Du Heng. Du Heng was a cultivator with wood spiritual roots. He was also the previous host of the Magic Sky Pearl. The control of the Magic Sky Pearl had little effect on Du Heng. His spiritual energy inadvertently unlocked the control of the Magic Sky Pearl... This was really an unexpected situation!
Then the question is, why are all the dragons awake but Du Heng is still not awake? Jing Nan quickly thought of Xuan Yu's press. Du Heng should be the first one to wake up, but he was strangled by Xuan Yu again!
Jing Nan: ...I hope Du Heng won’t be angry when he wakes up.
Yan Chuan said with shame and heartache: "Although my body was controlled, my mind was always clear. I know everything that happened outside. Wen Chi is our promising young man. We always thought we could safely hand over the dragon clan to him, but we didn't expect that a thousand years of hard work would eventually produce such an ungrateful wolf."
Most people in the Dragon Clan hated Wen Chi as much as they once recognized him. If what Wen Chi said was true, he not only harmed the Dragon Clan, but also the human and demon cultivators of the Taixu Realm.
The one who trained Wen Chi and pushed him to this position was none other than the Dragon Clan! They had thought that Wen Chi was a good clan leader before, at least he would not stay like Xuan Yu and not come back.
Thinking of this, the people of the Dragon Clan just wanted to slap themselves to death.
Jing Nan immediately said: "Since you know everything, you should take my place quickly. I want to go in and help Xixi and Xiaoyu."
Yan Chuan said: "Fellow tribesmen, come and help!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless hands appeared on the barrier. The people of the Dragon Clan, regardless of gender, age or status, placed their hands on the barrier. A dozen strong young men patted their chests and said, "Fox God, please open the barrier and let us fight the monster!"
The more advanced people among the Dragon Clan took over the positions of the generals. Yun Zheng and the others held their weapons and said, "Fox God, please open the barrier!"
Jing Nan nodded and flew quickly towards Du Heng who was behind Yun Zheng. Only if Du Heng was awake could they open the barrier.
As soon as Jing Nan got behind Du Heng, Du Heng woke up. He rubbed his neck with a headache: "My neck hurts so much..."
Everyone looked dizzy, but they were actually awake. Only Du Heng was truly dizzy! Jing Nan glanced at the back of his neck. Wow, there were two bruises. How much force did Xuan Yu use?

Du Heng was in a daze for a while before he understood what was happening. He looked towards the barrier and found that the clean platform was gone. In its place was an increasingly circular passage with a diameter of several dozen feet. Fire dragons would crawl out of the entrance from time to time.
There were dozens of fire dragons baring their fangs and claws in the barrier, and the bodies of several fire dragons were piled on the ground. Some fire dragons had not yet crawled out of the passage, but they had already clung to the bodies of their companions and swallowed their flesh and blood.
Du Heng's pupils shrank: "Oh my god..." Too scary, right? However, Xuan Yu and the others had already tried their best to control the battle within the barrier.
After the barrier was released, Jing Nan and the others rushed into it. As the core of the formation, Du Heng could not leave like Jing Nan and the others did. He had to stand there to guard the formation. Seeing the blood and killing in the barrier, but he had no way to support, Du Heng was extremely anxious.
Xiaoxiao lay on the barrier and watched the battle situation inside. He said anxiously: "Du Hengheng, that passage is getting bigger and bigger!" Even if twenty or thirty people rushed in, that number was not enough compared to the eight-clawed fire dragon that crawled out!
Du Heng pursed his lips and looked at the barrier, his eyes focused on the group of Chiwen. He only saw Chiwen rushing up to besiege Xuan Yu one by one, but he didn't see him fight back.
The Chiwens finally dispersed, and Xuan Yu had disappeared from the area they had surrounded. The Chiwens laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, Dragon God Xuan Yu is nothing but this. Open your eyes and see, your Dragon God can't resist me at all!"
Seeing this scene, everyone's heart sank. Feng Gui and Jing Nan were attacked by the fire dragon because they lost their focus. Feng Gui was not careful and was scratched by the fire dragon's claws on his thigh, and blood immediately soaked his trouser legs.
Jing Nan threw a pill into Feng Gui's mouth. He said firmly, "Xiao Yu is not so useless." Feng Gui also insisted, "Yes, he always has a lot of ideas. He will not be defeated by this bastard."
Chiwen said arrogantly: "I am not his opponent in a one-on-one fight, but I have the Illusionary Sky Pearl. With the Illusionary Sky Pearl's ability to conceal the truth, even if you have the other two beads, you can't do anything to me. What's more, the whereabouts of the Slaughtering Sky Pearl is still unknown."
Chiwen looked at the dragons outside the barrier with contempt: "Although we are not of the same race, you have been kind to me over the years. Give up resistance now. I can prevent my fellow tribesmen from harming you."
Yan Chuan's old face flushed red, and he said angrily: "Dream on! The dragon race can be killed but not humiliated! You have fallen into depravity and associated with monsters. You deliberately deceived and controlled the dragon race. We trusted you before and thought you were going to create an extraordinary dragon race. It turns out that you have been using us from the beginning to the end!"
Chiwen sneered, "Elder Yanchuan, you are wrong. When I proposed to move towards the land, you agreed with both hands. Have you forgotten? You obviously have ambitions and don't want your living space to be squeezed. Now you act like you have been deceived by me. Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
Yan Chuan was ashamed and embarrassed: "If we had known your plan earlier, we would not agree even if you slaughtered all the dragons!"
A lot of the dragon clan's territory has been swallowed up by the black water and the white water over the years. When Wen Chi suggested that they could develop towards the shore, Yan Chuan thought about it and agreed.
But going ashore meant competing for territory with the cultivators of the Beast Tribe and Feather Tribe. Xuan Yu had said before that he must not provoke a fight with the demon tribe. That’s why Yan Chuan secretly helped Wen Chi do a lot of things to deceive Xuan Yu’s eyes.
If you ask Yan Chuan what he feels at this moment, two words can sum up his mood. That is regret.
Yan Chuan gnashed his teeth and said, "Wen Chi! You have evil intentions, you will die!" Fortunately, Yan Chuan had been kind to Wen Chi over the years, but he didn't expect that he was actually in the same group with the Eight-clawed Fire Chi. Yan Chuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
Chiwen said disdainfully: "Elder Yanchuan is wrong. From ancient times to the present, the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits. If the Fire Chi clan replaces the Dragon clan today, who in the world do you think can speak for the Fire Chi clan?"
Hundreds of Chiwen appeared, shaking their tails and laughing. People could no longer tell which one was the real Wen Chi, because every Chiwen was saying the same thing.
As they were talking, more fire dragons crawled out of the passage, and the monks' movements gradually slowed down. Jing Nan and his companions had consumed a lot of spiritual energy in setting up the barrier, and they had been fighting non-stop since entering the barrier, and now they were exhausted.
Du Heng's spiritual energy was continuously drained by the barrier, and he began to get anxious. He looked around the scene, and he could feel the aura of the three chaos beads. The aura of the sky-killing beads was suppressed and not very obvious. But Du Heng once owned the three beads, and he knew their strength.
If Xuan Yu was gone, the most domineering aura of the Slaughtering Heaven Pearl should have swept the entire barrier at this moment, instead of emitting such a weak aura. Du Heng was more inclined to believe that Xuan Yu was still alive.
Hearing Wen Chi's words, the dragons began to curse. Hearing the curses, Wen Chi became even more proud, and the morale of the monks who were fighting the fire dragon in the barrier began to decline.
Just as Du Heng was waiting anxiously, something strange happened.
The fire dragon that had just swallowed the Xuan Yu Lu Tian Sword felt uncomfortable, it stretched its neck and curled up its body. There was a faint green light flashing in its belly, the light flashed faster and faster, and the fire dragon howled miserably.
It was jumping and struggling near the entrance of the passage like a grumpy earthworm, and several fire dragons that had just climbed up were thrown into the passage by it. The fire dragon finally screamed, and a cloud of blood mist suddenly burst out from its chest and abdomen.
A ball of green spiritual light rose in the blood mist. The spiritual light rose upwards, and when it reached a certain height, it suddenly disappeared.
A strong light blue spiritual energy suddenly emerged from the Chiwen group. The spiritual energy swept across like a rotten wood, and the Chiwens that were swept by the spiritual energy all raised their heads, and it seemed that they wanted to scream. But before they could scream, the Chiwens that appeared disappeared one by one.
In the end, only one Chiwen was left, and it seemed that it didn't understand what was happening. He looked in front of him in horror, and saw a tall figure gradually appearing in front of him where there was nothing.
Wen Chi wanted to escape, but his body seemed to be frozen: "Xuan Yu... Impossible! I clearly devoured you!"
He clearly swallowed Xuan Yu mouthful by mouthful. The taste of blood still remained in his mouth. He still remembered the feeling of Xuan Yu's bones sliding through his esophagus.
Xuan Yu was covered in blood. He looked at Wen Chi expressionlessly and said, "I found you."
Xuan Yu would not stand there and let Chiwen gnaw on his body. What he took out was just the snake meat in the storage bag. Wen Chi probably had never eaten a snake, so he mistook it for Xuan Yu.
Wen Chi's eyes widened in shock and fear, but before he could escape, Xuan Yu suddenly appeared in front of Wen Chi. With a faint sound of "puff", Xuan Yu's hand pierced Wen Chi's chest.
Wen Chi looked down at Xuan Yu's hand in astonishment: "Hey, what are you doing? What are you going to do?"
Xuan Yu slowly pulled his hand out from Wen Chi's chest. He seemed to be holding something in his hand. Fresh red blood spurted out of Wen Chi's chest, but the blood did not splash onto Xuan Yu.
Wen Chi could no longer maintain his demon form, he transformed into a human and held Xuan Yu's hands: "Give it back to me..."
Everyone then saw what was in Xuan Yu's hand. He was holding a red bead. If it wasn't the Fantasy Sky Bead, what could it be? !
Xuan Yu actually successfully found Wen Chi’s true body among hundreds of phantoms, and he also took out the Fantasy Sky Pearl!
Seeing this scene, the dragons outside the barrier cheered: "Dragon King is awesome!"
Wen Chi suffered a severe chest injury, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. He said in disbelief: "I have guessed countless times where you would put the Slaughtering Heaven Pearl. I thought your Slaughtering Heaven Sword was the key to the road to the Slaughtering Heaven Pearl...but I never thought that the Slaughtering Heaven Pearl was actually in the Slaughtering Heaven Sword..."
Wen Chi had also looked for the Killing Heaven Sword before, but the guards at Shenxu Palace were too strict, and he had no chance to find it.
Xuan Yu said calmly: "If you hadn't broken the Sky-Slaying Sword, you would still have a chance of survival. Unfortunately, you broke your chance of survival by yourself."
The Killing Sky Pearl lost the seal of the Spirit Sword, and the power it exuded was not something Wen Chi could withstand. Wen Chi's heart had been shattered by Xuan Yu, and he would not live long.
Wen Chi cursed: "You lunatic!"
Xuan Yu nodded: "It's okay, I can't compare to you in craziness. By the way, let me ask you one last question, how do you close the passage?"
Wen Chi laughed out loud: "It can't be closed. From the moment the passage was opened, it can't be closed."
Wen Chi looked at the eight-clawed fire dragons under him with satisfaction and pride: "My people, I have opened the passage to the Taixu Realm. I hope you can dominate the Taixu Realm and never hide in the small cave without sunlight again..."
At this time, the passage changed from a half-moon shape to a circle, and the black membrane that bound the fire dragons disappeared. In the passage, thousands of fire dragons climbed up along the passage, twisting their red bodies and making everyone's hair stand on end.
A terrible thought arose in everyone's mind - it was over.
