Chapter 21: Kill!

Inside a hall of the随身仙府.

Ji Ning, Mu Zishuo, Uncle Bai, and Xiaoqing were gathered together.

"It's about time." Uncle Bai looked at the enormous map he had drawn before him and nodded gently.

"What do you think?" Ji Ning, Mu Zishuo, and Xiaoqing all stared at the huge map but couldn't make sense of it.

"Heavily guarded, no flaws." Uncle Bai sighed.

"No flaws?" Ji Ning was startled.

"According to the intelligence you obtained through soul-scouring, the Shaoyin clan has three lairs, each with over a hundred scattered immortals and earth immortals stationed permanently." Uncle Bai nodded. "Just for the Dongfu County branch of the Shaoyin clan we're attacking, these hundred-plus scattered immortals and earth immortals are dispersed throughout the Chenyu Mountains. They will never gather together for you to wipe out in one fell swoop. They are scattered everywhere, maintaining countless formations and prohibitions, making it very difficult to destroy the entire Chenyu Mountains!"

Ji Ning frowned: "No way?"

"But the Chenyu Mountains are so vast that they also have a weakness." Uncle Bai said confidently. "Though it's not really a weakness."

Xiaoqing asked urgently: "Uncle Bai, what weakness? I can't see it."

"The Chenyu Mountains stretch nearly a million li. A grand formation covering nearly a million li—scattered immortals and earth immortals simply cannot activate and maintain such a formation." Uncle Bai said with a smile.

Ji Ning's eyes lit up.

"You mean..." Ji Ning showed a joyful expression.

"The range of an immortal's yuan force is limited. If the formation bases are too far away, they cannot control it. Just like our magic treasures—if they are a million li away, we cannot control them." Uncle Bai said. "The formations controlled by scattered immortals and earth immortals generally have a limit of about a hundred thousand li."

"The Chenyu Mountains are this vast..."

"A celestial immortal cannot possibly stay here maintaining the formation forever. It must be scattered immortals and earth immortals who maintain the formations and prohibitions over the long term. It's easy to guess... the Chenyu Mountains must be divided into over a dozen regions, each controlled by at least a dozen scattered immortals or earth immortals." Uncle Bai said.

The Chenyu Mountains were nearly a million li in length and a little over a hundred thousand li in width.

"There are over a hundred scattered immortals and earth immortals in the Chenyu Mountains, but only a small part of them control the formations." Uncle Bai said. "What we need to do is find out who controls the formations. As long as we kill one, the region of over a hundred thousand li that immortal protected will be without formation protection for a short time."

"But it must be fast."

"Because celestial immortals will appear quickly. I believe there will be a more powerful formation in the Chenyu Mountains, controlled by a celestial immortal." Uncle Bai said. "Scattered immortals and earth immortals control smaller areas, but a celestial immortal can control the entire Chenyu Mountains!"

Ji Ning, Mu Zishuo, and Xiaoqing all nodded.

"According to intelligence, the celestial immortals of the Shaoyin clan are generally not in their lairs but hide in some unknown place. Once the clan is in danger, those celestial immortals will definitely rush over immediately." Uncle Bai said. "So... I think we should do this..."

Uncle Bai explained his idea in detail.

Ji Ning originally had a vague plan, and now he modified it based on reality.

The plan was set!

"It will definitely work." Xiaoqing, listening nearby, was extremely excited.

"Let the Shaoyin clan regret it." Mu Zishuo's eyes were filled with madness.

Ji Ning smiled and said softly: "The first target is the foremost among the scattered immortals and earth immortals stationed in the Chenyu Mountains—the old monster who has lived for over a million years—the Fiendish Demon Fufeng!"

...

In the evening.

Ji Ning used the Seventy-Two Transformations to turn into a short, fat cultivator. This short, fat cultivator rode clouds and flew directly toward the Chenyu Mountains. He also carried a token, so the formations and prohibitions of the Chenyu Mountains did not harm him at all.

"Unfortunately, in the Chenyu Mountains, I cannot silently kill those scattered immortals and earth immortals." Ji Ning thought to himself. "Otherwise, I could sneak in one by one and kill them all. Without the scattered immortals and earth immortals, the entire Chenyu Mountains would probably be defenseless in a short time."

"Brother Xuxiu." The short, fat cultivator flew on clouds, and from afar came a shout.

The short, fat cultivator looked into the distance. An old man with white hair riding a crane was flying over. The old man smiled and said: "Brother Xuxiu, long time no see. This old man has missed you dearly!"

"Missing my treasures, more like?" The short, fat cultivator chuckled strangely. "Don't rush, don't rush. I came back this time for urgent business. Next time, I will definitely bring the treasures."

"Don't forget." The white-haired old man said with a smile, then rode his crane away into the distance.

The short, fat cultivator watched the old man's back and curled his lips: "Old fellow, let you live a little longer. Later, I'll take the chance to destroy you."

The short, fat cultivator Ji Ning had transformed into was named 'Daoist Xuxiu'. He was full of malicious schemes and ruthless methods. Because he was stationed outside for a long time, he could obtain some forbidden items like 'beautiful women, infants' that were banned from sale but still desired by some cultivators. Daoist Xuxiu often sent beautiful women to his master, 'Fiendish Demon Fufeng'. Precisely because he was Fufeng's disciple, Ji Ning specifically transformed into his appearance.

"Whoosh."

Flying all the way, as Daoist Xuxiu was Fufeng's disciple, he naturally had unimpeded passage.

Soon he arrived at the majestic palace complex.

"Daoist Xuxiu."

"My lord."

In the palace complex, beautiful women of all kinds could be seen everywhere—human beauties, demon beauties, innocent tribal girls, even noble imperial women... This place was practically a kingdom of women! Fiendish Demon Fufeng's greatest hobby was 'lust', and importantly, he lived long! He held a very high status in the entire Shaoyin clan, and even the celestial immortal ancestors valued him greatly.

"Hehe, good, good." Daoist Xuxiu walked along, smiling all the way.

"Where is Master?"

"The master is in the Spring Sun Hall."

Although those women called out to him, as soon as Daoist Xuxiu passed, they showed expressions of disgust.

They hated this Daoist Xuxiu!

If Fiendish Demon Fufeng was a domineering hero, then Daoist Xuxiu was purely a petty villain! But Fufeng liked this disciple very much.

Spring Sun Hall.

This lavishly decorated hall had pearls from the depths of the North Sea inlaid in the dome, purple bamboo from the South Sea as corner decorations, endless spring water from the Great Snowy World flowing inside, and various rare treasures arranged everywhere. It was as if spring had arrived, all things revived, grass and trees grew, and streams babbled.

"Master." Daoist Xuxiu called out from afar.

"Xuxiu?" At the top of the hall, the throne was actually as wide as a large bed. Fiendish Demon Fufeng was lying on the bed, with two maids feeding him fruit. If he felt like it, he would directly enjoy the women on that big bed. He looked at Daoist Xuxiu entering and said with a smile: "My good disciple, what business brings you to see me?"

Fiendish Demon Fufeng liked this disciple very much. He knew Daoist Xuxiu was a petty villain, but petty villains were really handy to use.

"Disciple has important matters to report to Master." Daoist Xuxiu said.

"Important matters?" Fiendish Demon Fufeng laughed. "What important matters?"

Whoosh!

Daoist Xuxiu, standing below the hall, suddenly extended his arms dozens of feet. Two enormous golden palms, blotting out the sky, directly slapped toward Fiendish Demon Fufeng.

"You—" Fiendish Demon Fufeng was greatly startled. He immediately flew backward, and at the same time, hundreds of flying needles appeared before him, forming a huge circular shield to block. As he flew backward, his surging yuan force directly turned the two charming women beside him into meat paste in their terror.

Bang!!!

The two enormous golden palms, with infinite might and lightning speed, one directly smashed the circular shield to pieces, shattering even the huge throne, while the other golden palm instantly caught up to the fleeing Fiendish Demon Fufeng.

"No!" Fiendish Demon Fufeng didn't even have time to use a Greater Teleportation talisman. A black light appeared before him, but the golden palm struck like lightning.

Bang~~~

Everything shattered, and even Fiendish Demon Fufeng's body turned to powder in an instant, dead beyond death!

Fiendish Demon Fufeng! Dead!

"Ah."

"Run!"

"Heavens."

The other maids in the hall were completely stunned, terrified. They never expected that the despised Daoist Xuxiu would strike instantly and effortlessly kill the legendary figure 'Fiendish Demon Fufeng'.

"Up!" After instantly killing Fiendish Demon Fufeng, Ji Ning immediately shot into the sky. Bang~~~ His powerful physical body was like a magic treasure, directly smashing through the roof of the Spring Sun Hall and rising high into the air.

"Destroy!"

A flying sword appeared in Ji Ning's hand—the Thousand Bull Sword. "Su River, out!"

"Rumble~~~" A ten-thousand-li river instantly covered a vast area, sweeping with infinite might. Under Ji Ning's control, this ten-thousand-li Su River could even restrain the Bashe snake formed by the Blood Cloud Tower's assassination attempt, showing its power. Even a slight touch could kill ordinary scattered immortals and earth immortals!

So, under Ji Ning's full-force activation...

Most importantly!

Originally, this large area was controlled by Fiendish Demon Fufeng's formations and prohibitions. No one dared to cause trouble on his turf. Several thousand li around were Fufeng's territory. Even several thousand li away were residences of some Primal Daoists; mortals were not qualified to live in such areas.

"Sweep!"

Bang bang bang~~~

The ten-thousand-li Su River, like a water dragon, rolled over, causing mountains to explode, palaces to shatter, and even some formation bases buried in the mountains to be destroyed.

"Drill!"

The ten-thousand-li Su River drilled into the earth, churning the ground. In an instant, it had 'turned over' a range of tens of thousands of li, destroying all mountains and digging up the earth a thousand li deep, destroying all formation bases...

"I must destroy as large an area as possible in the shortest time. Soon, the Shaoyin clan's counterattack will come." Ji Ning was well aware of this. He immediately controlled the ten-thousand-li Su River. The river was so huge that it could sweep a ten-thousand-li area in the blink of an eye, making it most suitable for large-scale destruction.
