Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 223 - 221 Subdue the Demon
Chapter 223: Chapter 221 Subdue the Demon Chapter 223 -221 Subdue the Demon The seventy-two Paperfolk with big eyes stared at each other. Upon hearing the command, they turned and left, vanishing into the night in a blink of an eye.
This time, Ning Daoran planned to set up the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation, and it was his first time arranging this grand array.
The Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was a colossal array that spanned dozens of miles, capable of engulfing the entire Guiyuan Sect within its scope. Naturally, the difficulty of arranging the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was tremendous, requiring the cooperation of multiple individuals.
Moreover, the consumption was enormous; a one-time activation would burn through thirty-six Mid-grade Spirit Stones, equal to three thousand six hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones! For an average cultivator, this was unthinkable!
Fortunately, for Ning Daoran, these were not issues. With second-class Paperfolk at his disposal, setting up the formation was but a trivial matter. As for the Spirit Stones, he still had many, left behind by Lin Xuyan.
“Old Lu.”
Ning Daoran’s gaze was icy as he looked towards the Guiyuan Sect, his eyes filled with chilling murderous intent. Big Stupid Deer couldn’t help but cry out; it had never seen such a look in Big Brother’s eyes.
The moment Ning Daoran decided on sect destruction, it was determined that not a single person from Guiyuan Sect would escape.
This was also his first time harboring the thought of exterminating a sect. This Guiyuan Sect, he saw no reason for its continued existence. If he were to constrain himself with his past sentiments, on the Immortal Path, personal benefits are paramount — the Guiyuan Sect’s existence wouldn’t matter to him at all.
But the Guiyuan Sect killed Zhao Lichen. Just this point alone was something Ning Daoran couldn’t get over. If he couldn’t trample the Guiyuan Sect completely, his future cultivation would surely not reach a state of clear understanding!
At this moment, for him…
Destroying Guiyuan Sect was equivalent to vanquishing demons!
…
“Activate the Array!”
Following Ning Daoran’s low shout, immediately a buzzing resonant sound came from beneath the ground. The killing array of the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was complete!
Ferocious flames spewed across the sky. Over a span of dozens of miles, filaments of flames shaped like fish scales emerged on the land, and in just an instant, the entire Guiyuan Sect had turned into a gigantic furnace!
Furthermore, at the edges of the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation, strands of prohibitions rose, sealing everything within the array, preventing anything from escaping.
“Ow, ow~~~”
Big Stupid Deer lifted its head and bellowed.
“No, you stay outside to protect me.”
Ning Daoran took out the Big Green Dragon from his Storage Ring, his body arose lightly, and he entered the Guiyuan Sect.
…
A great fire had started in the mountains; the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was steaming. Countless fierce flames surged up from underground, accompanied by the sounds of dragon roars. Fiery red fish scales appeared on the ground, mirroring the rampage of fire-red fish and dragons within the array.
Inside the Mountain Gate, a group of Guiyuan Sect disciples were terrified.
“You… you’re the one who set up this formation?! Elder, why are you targeting our Guiyuan Sect?!”
Spear Radiance swept through, and a group of Guiyuan Sect disciples turned into shreds of flesh and blood, their departure without the slightest hint of pain.
“This man is mad, block him!”
On the mountain, a group of Foundation Establishment Elders flew down, several of them quickly brandishing Spiritual Artifacts, trying to keep Ning Daoran outside the Inner Mountain.
“All of you——die!”
Ning Daoran swung his hand, and immediately twenty-four Golden Silk Swords burst into the air, turning into streaks of golden raindrops, like a heavy downpour falling onto the crowd. In an instant, those cultivators who raised Bone Shields and Spiritual Artifacts were pierced through their bodies, utterly powerless to resist.
“So it was you…”
On the mountainside, a group of women cursed: “Our Guiyuan Sect treated you well, and the Sect Master honored you as a distinguished guest. Why do you repay kindness with hatred, why do you make an enemy of our Guiyuan Sect?!”
“Quiet!”
Ning Daoran turned around and spread his fingers, and immediately, a Treasure fan the size of a fingernail spun rapidly in his palm, growing larger and larger, eventually taking the size of a palm-leaf fan. After infusing it with the True Yang Furnace Skill mana, he fanned ruthlessly towards the group of women!
A sky filled with fierce flames descended, mixed even with the sounds of Dragon Sparrows. In an instant, those women could no longer curse loudly, turning into ash amid the fierce flames.
Along the mountain path, countless Guiyuan Sect disciples ran down, but most of them were at the Qi Refinement Realm.
As the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation had been activated, and the mountain was scorched with flames erupting, these Qi Refinement disciples couldn’t even think of confronting Ning Daoran, let alone withstand the power of the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation.
Many disciples clutched their throats, unable to breathe, and quickly turned into charred remains in the mountains.
Under the ravage of the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation, only those above Foundation Establishment had a fighting chance!
Ning Daoran held the Big Green Dragon, walking along amidst the flames.
“Transcendent Zhang, why have you betrayed our Guiyuan Sect?” A Foundation Establishment Cultivator burst out to confront him.
The Big Green Dragon swung lightly, stirring up a sky filled with blood.
The Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation burned ever more fiercely, and naturally, the number of people who could survive within the formation dwindled.
At the mountain’s summit, every hall, pavilion, and house was ignited by the flames. The entire mountain was burning, and it wasn’t just the surface; the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was a complete killing array. The flames underground spared no one either; cultivators hiding below were just as doomed.
…
At the back mountain.
Ning Daoran emerged from the fire, enveloped in fierce flames, holding the Azure Dragon Spear, resembling a vengeful Loose Immortal.
In front, a Demon Tree soared up, every branch twisting like demons. Now it no longer concealed itself, with the aura of a late-Golden Core Evil Spirit lingering about.
At the crown of the tree, one stood firm—it was none other than the Sect Master Zuo Qiuhai.
“Fellow Daoist Zhang, for what reason have you done this?” He asked with a frosty look.
“I am not surnamed Zhang.”
Ning Daoran’s spear hung low as he spoke indifferently, “My surname is Ning, my name is Ning Daoran. I am the Qiongbi Peak Master of the Chaotic Sect. Zhao Lichen, who was killed by this Evil Spirit, was my Senior Brother Zhao!”
“What Senior Brother Zhao?”
Zuo Qiuhai seemed somewhat demented as he roared, “You have spared no expense in annihilating my Guiyuan Sect, are relentless in your battle against me, Zuo Qiuhai, and the Holy Tree. Is it all just for a mere Senior Brother Zhao?”
“Yes.”
Ning Daoran’s gaze was indifferent, “Senior Brother Zhao was an exceptionally good person, although a bit verbose, but he treated his junior brothers and sisters extremely well, so… Zuo Qiuhai, your Guiyuan Sect killed my Senior Brother Zhao, so I will obliterate your entire sect!”
“Madman! Who the hell doesn’t have hundreds of Senior Brothers?” Zuo Qiuhai raged, “Your Senior Brother Zhao’s life is valuable, are the lives of over three thousand people in my Guiyuan Sect worthless?”
“They are not worth pitying.”
Ning Daoran laughed, “They are all thanks to you, Zuo Qiuhai. Enough talk, go to hell with your Demon Tree!”
With a long howl from Zuo Qiuhai, his figure surprisingly merged with the Demon Tree. The long sword in his hand, like a sharp, dry branch, burst through the air and in the moment he thrust it forward, countless withered branches shot forth, attacking like the arms of demons.
The Azure Dragon Spear vibrated violently as Ning Daoran instantly thrust out dozens of spears. Threads of spear radiance, filled with the energy of the True Yang Furnace Technique, pierced through the air, chopping the limbs of the Demon Tree incessantly.
Although the Demon Tree was an evil spirit, its origin was of the Wood Attribute, so attack by fire and the Gold Attribute could restrain it effectively.
In the very next moment, several blood-red threads crisscrossed through the sky, instantly severing dozens of branches. At the severed sites, fresh blood sprayed out, showing that the evil spirit, in the Gold Core Late Stage, had been wounded.
“Fellow Daoist.”
Suddenly, an old voice came through, “I did not wish for your Senior Brother Zhao to be injured. It was Zuo Qiuhai who killed him. I am merely a sprout in the world, devouring and absorbing Essence Qi is just my instinct, with no distinction of good or evil. I hope you can spare me, disperse this Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation, and there shall be a generous reward!”
Ning Daoran couldn’t care less about the Demon Tree’s plea. He raised his left hand, and the Dragon Sparrow Fan fanned out immense fierce flames, heading straight for the Demon Tree.
“Ning Daoran!”
Zuo Qiuhai’s face twisted in ferocity, watching as the Guiyuan Sect he had painstakingly managed for many years was about to turn to ashes, he was already somewhat crazed.
Just as his sword carried countless blood-red withered branches flying toward him, Ning Daoran suddenly activated the Liangyi Sword Technique. In an instant, an Eight Diagrams Dharma Form emerged beneath his feet, and the twelve Golden Silk Swords, like golden shooting stars, shot out, leaving blood pits on Zuo Qiuhai’s arms and legs!
“Liangyi Sword Technique!?”
Zuo Qiuhai’s aura plunged, bellowing, “You have connections to the Liangyi Sect too?”
“What does a dead man need to know such things for?”
Ning Daoran had already escalated the True Yang Furnace Technique to the phase of ‘Return to Nature.’ He swooped down from the sky, his Big Green Dragon fiercely slashing toward the top of Zuo Qiuhai’s skull!
“You…”
Zuo Qiuhai’s gaze turned icy, blocking the Big Green Dragon’s strike with crossed arms, but a streak of blood-red brilliance suddenly pierced through them, the tip of a blood-red sword, a Second-tier top-grade spiritual tool!
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
This was also Zuo Qiuhai’s last attempt!
Sadly, he was facing Ning Daoran.
“Boom!”
With a thrust, Zuo Qiuhai’s arms were instantly reduced to a rain of blood, and at the same time, the Lingxiao Mist Dream Bracelet appeared to Ning Daoran’s right, forcefully deflecting the blood-red sword tip!
“Fellow Daoist Ning, don’t…”
Zuo Qiuhai’s expression was one of terror, “As long as you don’t kill me, I am willing…”
“Boom—”
The second spear descended, shattering Zuo Qiuhai’s entire head.
…
“Now it’s your turn.”
Ning Daoran slowly raised his head, looking towards that Gold Core Late Stage Demon Tree.
The Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation was still rampaging, and countless fierce flames rose from the ground. Even if Ning Daoran didn’t act, the Gold Core Late Stage Demon Tree would struggle to survive if it didn’t break the formation.
“Youngster, with such a heavy killing intent, are you really a Righteous Cultivator from the Chaotic Sect?” The old voice of the Demon Tree rang in his ears.
“I am currently a Loose Cultivator.” Ning Daoran said flatly, “I’m not considered a Righteous Cultivator, and if necessary, I can even take on the role of the Demon Path. Although you are my senior, you are ultimately an evil spirit, so… Junior is now sending Senior on his way!”
“You’re courting death, kid!” The Demon Tree roared in rage, thousands of branches twisting as countless blood-red sharp branches attacked from all directions!
Ning Daoran ignored it and charged up the treetop with the Azure Dragon Spear. With each spear thrust, numerous blood-stained branches were shattered, and then engulfed by the flames of the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Array.
“You’re ruthless, kid!” The Demon Tree used various tactics, fighting with desperation.
However, it was still suppressed in terms of strength.
Ning Daoran patted his Storage Bag, and in an instant, twenty-four Array Flags and an Array Plate flew out, setting up a Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation with a face-off. Accompanied by a scolding, the Jianjia-scented Sword Formation soared upwards!
Following this, the twenty-four Golden Silk Swords turned into glimmering light, spinning through the sky, gradually dismembering the Demon Tree’s large trunk.
Amidst the wails, the Demon Tree, although a Gold Core Late Stage evil spirit, had barely any strength to fight back. Under the assault of the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation and the Fiery Fire Fish Dragon Formation, it was now covered in blood and on the brink of death!
“Do you feel a sense of accomplishment from eating people?” Ning Daoran swept with his spear, severing the trunk of the Demon Tree, blood gushing out. He said, “Come, let me give you a taste of being eaten!”
With that, he reached out, grasped a ‘Little Blackie’ from the Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, and pressed its head down onto the bloody stump:
“Eat quickly!”
…
“Squeak squeak!!”
Little Blackie was terrified, its scales all sticking up on end. Can it… not eat this?
