"Overestimating your own abilities."
Jiang Fann did not wait on the spot. Instead, he directly headed towards the empty space in front of the pagoda. The combination of the Formation Dao had already appeared. This required a lot of high-quality materials.
He personally set up the formation, and focused his mind. He was not in a hurry to set up the main formation, but instead set up a defensive formation nearby. This way, Xiao Ai and Lin Zhan could control the formation to temporarily defend against the attack of the Formation Spirit, and prevent him from interfering with Jiang Fann's formation.
The Formation Spirit stared at Jiang Fann, and was also observing Jiang Fann's method of setting up the formation.
Although this was already the third time he had seen Jiang Fann setting up the formation, every time Jiang Fann's formation was different. Most importantly, the strength of the formation Jiang Fann set up was far inferior to the formation here, but every time it had an extremely strong restraining effect. Even if he personally controlled the formation, it would still be useless.
Logically speaking, although Jiang Fann had a Formation Spirit by his side, he was also a Formation Spirit. He was very clear about the abilities of the Formation Spirit. Although it could control most of the formations, it was not easy to set up a formation that could restrain other formations, not to mention that the formation on this mountain gate was not common.
However, to him, Jiang Fann, this Formation Dao cultivator, was a little too young. No matter how talented he was, how could he have come into contact with so many complicated formation patterns, and remembered so many of them? Not to mention combining them together.
One had to know that the effects of different kinds of array runes were completely different when they were combined, and it was extremely difficult to change them.
However, every time Jiang Fann placed the materials, he was very firm, as if he was very familiar with this formation. It was completely unlike the methods of a young man.
He tried to use the power of other array formations to attack Jiang Fann and disrupt his formation.
However, the defensive array formations around Jiang Fann blocked all of the power. Lin Zhan and Xiao Ai stood on Jiang Fann's two sides respectively, controlling the array formations as they observed Jiang Fann's formation.
Although Jiang Fann had already let them see the array runes simulated by the chapter of Formation Dao, it was still different from this detailed arrangement.
However, with the two of them controlling the defensive array formation together, Jiang Fann could be completely at ease.
This time, the speed of the formation was not considered fast, because this was a combination of five array formations. Before it could be activated, it was extremely complicated, and they could not make a single mistake.
Seeing that the formation was gradually forming, the Formation Spirit did not say a word. It was also mobilizing the power of its own array formation, constantly adding it to the pagoda, forming layers of barriers. It was obvious that it had already started to prepare.
...
During this period of time, the aura of the Dark Demon was constantly increasing. Jiang Fann had helped him stabilize his injuries that day, and even helped him heal his injuries. This allowed him to recover his injuries even faster. Now, he had almost recovered to 80% of his peak condition. In the past few days, he had killed three evil cultivators. These guys clearly understood his personality. The last time they attacked him, they were unable to take him down. If they did not continue to think of a way to deal with him, they would definitely be retaliated by him.
In their current state of complete victory, they were doomed to die, so they had to think of a way to escape as soon as possible.
The forces outside had also sent people to investigate the vicinity of the Paradise, but the Nether Demon did not let them enter the Paradise. Looking at the Nether Demon from afar, it seemed to be in a sorry state. There were still traces of battle in the Paradise, and those cultivators only glanced at it before leaving. They did not dare to stay for too long, because they were not sure of the current state of the Nether Demon.
However, the news of the Nether Demon’s serious injuries had spread throughout the region, and even the nearby towns had heard about it.
One had to know that the Nether Demon was a well-known expert in this region. Many cultivators knew that if it was not for him, there would be no place for those evil cultivators to hide. Combined with the fact that the evil cultivators had become more active recently, there were almost no rules. The credibility of the rumors had become much more reliable.
For a time, many cultivators who had ideas about him gathered here. After all, the evil cultivators had affected the interests of many forces in this region. There were already people who regarded them as thorns in their side, and they wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible.
On the contrary, after the news spread, the evil cultivators who had been attacking the cultivators outside in high profile had become low-profile overnight. They hid themselves and did not appear again.
The location of the Nether Demon’s Paradise was also revealed not long after. Many people wanted to try and see if they could obtain any benefits.
In the forest, a few middle-aged cultivators were gathered together. They were less than three miles away from the Underworld Demon. They were the first group of cultivators to arrive here, and two of them, Jiang Fann, were among them.
"Damn it, I don't know which team spread the news out, but it was spread so clearly. They are afraid that outsiders won't be able to find it."
"Why do I feel like there's a conspiracy? Also, I don't know where those active Evil Cultivators have gone to. These Evil Cultivators suddenly disappeared as if they were deliberately pushing the Underworld Demon to the front. Isn't it strange?"
Another person in the group said, "You are right. This is indeed a problem. It is very likely that someone among the Evil Cultivators deliberately spread the news. It seems that some of them don't want to see him. They want to use external forces to get rid of the Underworld Demon."
The leader of the group frowned and said, "What benefits does getting rid of him have for those fellows?"
"Evil Cultivators have different thoughts from ordinary people. How would I know? However, there's one thing that I can be sure of. They should have no way to deal with the Underworld Demon with their own methods. Otherwise, there is no need to waste their energy to let outsiders take action. Wouldn't the Underworld Demon be in a much better condition than what we know? Wouldn't it deliberately give us a loophole? "
The cultivator in the lead looked at the figure flying over and said calmly, "What's going on is no longer important, because there are already a lot of experts here. There are already a lot of cultivators in the Mortal Separating Stage. If that Nether Demon doesn't have enough powerful means, it won't have a chance to survive. All of you should prepare yourselves and adjust your condition. We'll be ready to move at any time and see if we can get any benefits."
At this moment, a group of people walked over from afar. When the two sides met, they were both on guard.
Only the cultivator in the lead looked at each other and smiled. There was no hostility in his eyes, and it was obvious that they knew each other.
The person who came over said, "How is it? Do you want to cooperate?"
"What is there to cooperate about? There is no good news at all. If we act rashly, we might be the first to be unlucky. Don't you think that you and I can suppress the injured Nether Demon together?"
"I'm not looking down on that guy, so my master is already on the way. He will be here the day after tomorrow. However, I need a few people who I can trust to set up the formation. Coincidentally, you are nearby, so of course I want to think of you."
Hearing the other party's words, the cultivator's eyes lit up. "He's already here? You really think too much. You don't relax at all."
"Now that so many cultivators have come, we don't have much of a competitive advantage. My master is very interested in that secret realm, so he agreed to come here directly. When the time comes, you can follow us to the secret realm. Whatever benefits you can get will depend on your luck."
"Alright, we'll help you."
...
In the blink of an eye, it had been several hours since Jiang Fann started to set up the formation. The five formations around Jiang Fann had already started to take shape. The Formation Spirit had already given up on attacking and was focused on its own formation, ready to deal with Jiang Fann's attack at any time.
Finally, the last ten or so materials appeared in front of Jiang Fann, slowly floating in front of him. Jiang Fann controlled these materials and placed them into the five formations one by one. When the last few were embedded into the formation, Jiang Fann let out a sigh of relief. His forehead was already covered in a layer of sweat, which showed that the formation was a huge consumption for him. It was not the consumption of the Qi Sea's Spiritual Strength, but the consumption of his energy.
Jiang Fann sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes to rest, and adjusted his aura. He simply rested for a while.
Twenty minutes later, Jiang Fann stood up and looked at the formations with a calm expression. His eyes were filled with joy.
He activated his own Spiritual Strength and added it to the main formation. The Spiritual Strength spread out, and the formation patterns were injected into the Spiritual Strength. Then, they began to circulate.
The first formation was completed, and then an inexplicable force directly activated the second formation.
The Spiritual Strength condensed by the formation directly covered the first formation. Then, the third, fourth, and fifth formations were also activated. The Spiritual Strength of the five formations were all added together, making the formation look very chaotic and complicated.
As Jiang Fann activated the Spiritual Strength in the middle, the five formations split apart, and finally turned into five layers. Under the guidance of the Spiritual Strength, it seemed to turn into a five-layered Spiritual Strength pagoda, emitting a powerful Spiritual Strength.
Seeing this scene, the Formation Spirit was full of surprise.
"This... This is impossible!"
Jiang Fann felt the circulation of the formation and activated it, consuming a large amount of his Spiritual Strength. However, he could use the Spiritual Stone to maintain it later. The strength of this formation had completely exceeded his expectations.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Fann activated the power of the formation and directly covered the pagoda in the distance. The Spiritual Strength continued to expand, and the power of the entire formation seemed to be endless.
The runes on the pagoda continuously flashed with light, releasing even stronger power to resist. At the same time, it released attacks, and a series of explosions sounded between the two formations. The power was extremely powerful.
Jiang Fann sent Xiao Ai and Lin Zhan into the formation. It was enough for them to control the formation. He stepped out of the defensive formation and walked towards the pagoda. His expression was calm. Even though the two formations were constantly fighting, Jiang Fann knew that the situation was as he had expected. His formation had already gained the upper hand, so he dared to walk towards the pagoda.
The Formation Spirit could clearly feel that the runes on the pagoda were being suppressed by a special force. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the Formation Spirit and forcefully activated the power of the formation to counter it, most of the runes would not be able to sustain the operation of the formation for long.
Even so, if this continued, his formation would not be able to withstand it. It would definitely be broken.
Jiang Fann's formation was obviously not as tall as his formation, and the strength of the Spiritual Strength released was also far from his. However, this perfect counter was completely beyond his expectations.
Seeing Jiang Fann getting closer and closer, his figure appeared and glared at Jiang Fann.
He threatened, "Quickly retract your formation, or else when I break it, the two Formation Spirits will belong to me."
