NOVPUBNoticing the four figures that emerged in the distance, resembling wild men, Enforcer Jiang didn’t hesitate for a moment, his body explosively shot towards them!
The four Cultivators from the Shanxiao Lineage were all taken aback by this sight.
They seemed to have not at all anticipated that a Cultivator from the Chen State, who had just been desperately fleeing, could have such audacity.
But soon they all revealed a trace of cruel smiles.
"A mere Early Nascent Soul dares to snatched people from the territory of the Kingdom of Immortals..."
The four did not retreat but instead advanced, quickly surrounding Enforcer Jiang.
Enforcer Jiang, however, remained calm and unafraid, and suddenly, a magic treasure resembling a small mountain flew out from his body, hovering above his head, immediately shrouding him in an illusion of eight trigrams.
The four Cultivators from the Shanxiao Lineage, from a distance, clenched stones of unknown name and hurled them towards Enforcer Jiang!
Although these stones seemed unremarkable, the moment they struck the illusion of the mountain, they immediately erupted in a violent tremor, demonstrating astonishing power!
Enforcer Jiang’s face turned pale, but he quickly gathered his spells together.
Stone beasts with bodies but no faces leaped out from the illusion of the mountain and lunged at the four men. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
At the same time, Tang Ji, who had been deliberately concealing his aura, quickly followed suit.
Pieces of inconspicuous Fragrance Plaques flew out rapidly from his sleeves.
They quickly disappeared into the surroundings.
Spiritual Sense swiftly swept around the Shanxiao Lineage Cultivators.
"Zhen three, Kan six... Li four, Dui eight..."
"Hmm? There are still others seeking death?"
A Cultivator from the Shanxiao Lineage, whose body was tattooed with the pattern of a ferocious tiger, glanced towards Tang Ji and immediately revealed a vicious smile as he flew over.
However, just as he was about to get close to Tang Ji, his Spiritual Sense swept over the surroundings, and he suddenly noticed an ordinary-looking Fragrance Plaque stealthily hidden in mid-air.
His expression changed abruptly as he urgently yelled:
"It’s a trap!"
But Tang Ji paid it no heed at all, silently reciting in his heart:
"Gen, Xun... the fragrance fills the universe!"
In an instant, the Fragrance Plaques surrounding them rapidly expanded!
A fuzzy eight trigram illusion began taking shape in mid-air.
It then quickly pressed towards the four Clerics of the Kingdom of Immortals.
However, the tiger-patterned Cultivator from the Shanxiao Lineage, upon sensing something was amiss in an instant, had his eyes bulge and whiten with rage, his face elongated and turned red, a bump formed on his forehead, and in a blink, numerous black hairs sprouted from his cheeks, arms, and body, transforming him entirely into a Mountain Goblin!
With a ferocious leap, he charged towards the descending illusion of the eight trigrams above him!
At the same time, the other three Cultivators from the Shanxiao Lineage also sensed the crisis and wasted no time. They immediately abandoned Enforcer Jiang and completed their transformation into Mountain Goblins as well, using all four limbs to leap towards Tang Ji through the air.
Even as Enforcer Jiang’s face turned somewhat pale, he followed close behind them without delay.
And facing these three Mountain Goblin-transformed Cultivators, Tang Ji’s expression remained unchanged, and with a sweep of his large sleeves, numerous Fragrance Plaques shot out!
On those Fragrance Plaques, one could vaguely see the characters for ’fire’ and ’stone’...
In an instant, a blazing fire confronted the three men!
Stone rain ’whooshed’ as it pelted down on them.
There were also golden spears and sharp currents resembling blades...
The three Mountain Goblin-transformed Cultivators were immediately overwhelmed, especially after Enforcer Jiang attacked from behind with his mountain magic treasure, they were quickly suppressed.
At the same time, the Shanxiao Lineage Cultivator who charged towards the eight trigram illusion, had a hint of ferocity flash through the white of his rage-filled eyes.
Without any hesitation, he slapped his waist, and suddenly, a bizarre fruit flew out and landed in his mouth.
Tang Ji, who was controlling the Fragrance Plaques, sensed something was amiss instantaneously, his expression shifting dramatically as his fingertips tapped lightly, quickly causing numerous Fragrance Plaques to smash towards the tiger-patterned Shanxiao Lineage Cultivator!
"Ha!"
The tiger-patterned Shanxiao Lineage Cultivator let out a thunderous shout.
The canines in his mouth grew rapidly and elongated, his reddening face gradually turned a cyan hue, and a strange and enchanting glimmer surfaced on his black visage.
And in the blink of an eye, his body inflated rapidly as if pumped with air.
With a ghastly face, sharp fangs, and a specter-like form,
He resembled a foul demon!
Several Fragrance Plaques hit him, only managing to knock off the black hairs on his body, revealing the bloody flesh beneath.
The tiger-patterned Mountain Goblin Cultivator let out a pained cry.
But he paid no attention to the Fragrance Plaques, his legs kicking slightly in the air without support.
He then furiously slammed into the descending illusion of eight trigrams.
Tang Ji’s face darkened.
He rapidly chanted a magical seal.
The illusion of eight trigrams trembled with light, its might intensified.
It immediately pressed down upon the tiger-patterned Shanxiao Lineage Cultivator.
However, to Tang Ji’s shock, although the eight trigram illusion was pressing down on the Shanxiao Cultivator, he wasn’t crushed as expected; instead, he was propping it up with sheer strength!
"What tough flesh! What was that fruit he just ate? How could it have such a potent effect?"
Tang Ji couldn’t help but reveal a look of astonishment.
He was a Fulfillment-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, and though he wasn’t known for his combat spells, he should have been more than capable of easily suppressing a mere Nascent Soul Early-stage Cultivator from the Shanxiao Lineage with his mana.
Indeed, this was what happened with the other three.
But the one before him didn’t seem to be the case.
And almost instantly, Tang Ji’s expression turned grave!
"Not good!"
In the center of the heavy illusion of the eight trigrams, a bulge unexpectedly appeared!
The next moment, the tiger-patterned Shanxiao Lineage Cultivator, with blood flowing and eyes wide with fury, mustered all his strength to tear apart!
"Rip!"
The eight trigram illusion was torn open like fabric, a small hole appearing as a result!
