Even the most complex martial arts techniques and secret skills still have flaws.
But formations are different; they have their own independent operating rules, with each link connected to the next, progressing layer by layer.
Moreover, mastering formations often requires extremely high skill.
In this world, martial artists who understand formations are extremely rare, as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
Like that Nightmare King from before, he only had a superficial understanding of the basics.
"Could there be some kind of forbidden object hidden here?"
At this thought, Jiang Wang's breathing quickened and his heart pounded.
This is the Palace of Nightmares, the dwelling place of the Nightmare race.
Moreover, this place is not far from the desolate mountains, and there may be some kind of treasure here.
"Nothing, no matter how forbidden, can stop me!"
Suppressing his inner turmoil, Jiang Wang's eyes gleamed as he prepared to explore the entire cave.
Rumble!
However, at that moment, the valley trembled violently, and the earth seemed to boil.
"An enemy attack?"
Jiang Wang's expression changed drastically. He abruptly stood up and looked over warily.
Click! Click!
The next moment, to his astonishment, the once solid mountain wall cracked inch by inch, as if it had been severely damaged.
Then, a primordial aura swept over us, as if a colossal primordial beast had descended.
Thump!
With a dull thud, the crack shattered, sending billowing smoke and dust billowing out.
The next moment, a strange bird, hundreds of feet tall and entirely purplish-black in color, soared into the sky, flapping its wings and stirring up a gust of wind.
This strange bird was a full three meters tall, with crystal-clear feathers that resembled glass and radiated a dazzling golden light.
Its entire body was shrouded in purple mist, its aura was cold and sinister, and it was filled with a violent aura, as if it might devour all living beings at any moment.
"King of Nightmares!"
Jiang Wang was shaken when he saw the strange bird.
"How is this possible? You were clearly injured by me, how could you have recovered completely?"
Jiang Wang's face turned pale, his pupils shrank, his heart pounded, and he almost doubted that he was dreaming.
The Nightmare King is a primordial being with a long lifespan and astonishing combat power.
Even after cultivating for several years, he had only just entered the Innate Realm and had not yet condensed his soul.
Logically speaking, after taking that blow, the Nightmare King should have been dead. How could he be here?
Buzz!
The next moment, a chilling and terrifying aura emerged, enveloping the surroundings, as if a god or demon had awakened, causing Jiang Wang's hair to stand on end and involuntarily take a step back.
"roar!"
The next moment, a furious roar rang out.
Boom!
The strange bird lashed out with a claw, faster than lightning, carrying a fierce force that tore through the air as it slammed down towards Jiang Wang.
"snort!"
Jiang Wang's face darkened, and he swung his iron rod to meet the attack.
clang!
The two weapons clashed, producing a piercing clang and sparks flying.
"Break!"
The next moment, a low shout came from Jiang Wang's mouth.
Immediately afterward, Jiang Wang touched the ground with his toes, his figure blurred, and with lightning speed, he approached the strange bird.
Whoosh!
The iron rod swept horizontally, crashing down like a dragon swinging its tail.
Clang!
Under the onslaught of the iron rod, the strange bird was actually smashed away, its massive body crashing onto the edge of the stone platform.
"How is this possible?"
Seeing this, Jiang Wang was stunned, his mind blank.
You must know that the strange bird was a naturally born creature, and its physical body was strong enough to withstand ordinary swords and blades.
But during the exchange just now, he actually gained the upper hand?
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the strange bird raised its head and roared, its eyes turning bloodshot and revealing a look of resentment.
Phew!
With a long howl that shook the surroundings, the strange bird flapped its wings and suddenly pounced on Jiang Wang, its sharp claws tearing through the void and creating a black crack in the air.
"Hmm? There's more than one of these strange birds?"
Jiang Wang narrowed his eyes, a sense of crisis rising in his heart.
This strange bird is very powerful, even more so than before.
"Since that's the case..."
The next moment, he sighed softly and shook his head, saying, "Then there's nothing we can do."
Rumble!
In an instant, his aura surged, like billowing smoke rising straight into the sky.
"Thunder Bloodline, activate!"
With a roar, Jiang Wang's entire body crackled with lightning, transforming into a thunderous armor that covered his entire body, making him appear like a god.
call out!
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wang gripped the iron rod tightly, took a step forward, and swung the iron rod, bursting forth with dazzling light.
Bang!
The iron rod collided with the strange bird, producing a deafening roar, like a meteorite falling to earth.
Thump thump thump!
Under this brute force, the strange bird staggered back several steps.
With each step, the mountain peaks would collapse, and the earth would shake violently.
"Thunder Bloodline!"
"This kid is indeed extraordinary, he actually obtained such a supreme bloodline."
"Hehe, this is more fun! Let's wait and see."
From the shadows came a chilling laugh.
"Who are you? Why have you trespassed into my Nightmare Palace?"
After the strange bird steadied itself, its eyes blazed with ferocity as it stared at Jiang Wang and asked.
The Nightmare King is not an intelligent being, acting solely on instinct, but possesses the cunning of a wild beast and is unwilling to entangle with Jiang Wang.
You are not worthy to know.
Jiang Wang said indifferently.
The Nightmare King was too evil, which disgusted him, and he wished he could get rid of him as soon as possible.
"court death!"
The Nightmare King was enraged.
"Bah!"
The next moment, the Nightmare King roared, his voice filled with terrifying pressure, transforming into a hurricane that swept across all directions.
boom!
Caught off guard, Jiang Wang was struck by the sound wave. He felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, his chest tightened, and he coughed up blood.
"Hmph! Nightmare King, you dare to ambush me?"
He clutched his chest and gritted his teeth.
Behind it, two silver totems lit up.
That was his bloodline mark, the bloodline of the Thunder God.
This Nightmare King has long lost its intelligence, leaving only instinct.
"King of Nightmares, flee this place at once, or I will destroy the Tower of Nightmares."
Seeing this, Jiang Wang coldly shouted and began to threaten the other party.
The Nightmare Tower is the most precious treasure of the Nightmare Clan, and it is related to the rise and fall of the Nightmare Clan.
Upon hearing the name "Tower of Nightmares," the Nightmare King's expression froze, a hint of struggle flashing deep in his eyes.
boom!
Suddenly, the Nightmare King spread its wings and shot forward like a dark cloud, carrying a strong killing intent.
Whoosh!
Seeing that the Nightmare King was still willing to attack regardless of the consequences, Jiang Wang was startled and quickly retreated.
But it was too late; a chunk of flesh was torn from his left arm, leaving it covered in blood.
"You beast, do you really think I can't do anything to you?"
Jiang Wang was both shocked and furious, and roared loudly.
Although he was somewhat intimidated by the Nightmare King's strength, the fact that the other party had taken the initiative left him no room to retreat.
Boom!
The next moment, Jiang Wang activated his bloodline, causing ripples to spread in the surrounding void. A dazzling blood-red light, like a torch, burned fiercely.
Crack!
Strands of crimson light fell, condensing into a suit of armor that tightly enveloped Jiang Wang.
This is Jiang Wang's bloodline technique—Thunderous Force!
The purer the bloodline, the more refined the blood, the more powerful the bloodline techniques that can be performed.
"I will kill you today!"
Jiang Wang clenched his fists, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He stomped his feet hard, and the lightning on his skin became even hotter. He looked like a thunder god descending to earth, inspiring awe in everyone.
