Chapter 21 Decisive Action

Chapter 21 Decisive Action
The Ning family monks began to feel confused.

"Shut up!" Ning Zhanji shouted decisively, "If Zheng Shuanggou really wants to harm us, we can't escape from here."

"But this possibility is too small. If they really want to take action, why would they harm us? Would it be to alert the enemy?"

"We will not be the first target!"

Ning Zhanji calmed down a little and saw a figure holding two hooks, breaking through countless monsters and rushing into one of the passages.

"It's Zheng Shuanggou!"

"I saw his signature weapon, the Sun and Moon Hook."

"Phew, he's not here to deal with us!"

The Ning family monks' hearts, which had just been put at ease, were raised again the next moment.

Because the strength of the monster's attack increased dramatically, the defensive pressure of the formation increased dramatically. Ning Zhanji had to order his subordinates to form a small team of several people to fight outside the formation and relieve the pressure on the formation.

After all, the formation was set up in a hurry and is not reliable.

The monster is ferocious!

Even though the Ning family monks fought desperately, the first ice wall was quickly broken.

The second ball cover didn't last long either.

Fortunately, the Ning family cultivator took the opportunity to set up a fourth formation.

Everyone huddled in the beam of light and held on with difficulty.

Ning Yong's face turned pale, and his body trembled: "Are we going to die here today?"

Ning Chen was no longer calm, his face was filled with panic and he was at a loss.

Ning Zhuo showed a similar expression, but there was a faint light in his eyes.

Boom, boom, boom!

Suddenly there were three loud bangs, and the earth shook.

The monsters fled frantically, and a black figure broke through the wall and rushed into the underground square.

Afterwards, Zheng Shuanggou, the Jindan cultivator of the Zheng family, also followed.

"You rat, how dare you covet the Immortal Palace? Leave your life behind!" Zheng Shuanggou roared.

Zheng Shuanggou swept with all his strength, sending out a five-meter-long blade of energy.

The shadow's voice was old, and he laughed loudly: "The treasures in the world of cultivation are obtained by those who are destined to get them. You, the major clans in Huoshi Immortal City, want to privately take over the Lava Immortal Palace? Dream on!"

As he spoke, the black shadow fought hard, dispersed the sword energy, and took the opportunity to use the force to fly backwards towards the Ning family monks.

Ning Zhanji's heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells. He hid in the center of the formation and shouted, "I will take charge of the formation!"

The defensive magic circle radiated an unprecedented brilliance.

The black shadow came in front of the magic circle, waved his hand lightly, and instantly destroyed the magic circle.

With another wave of his hand, a large number of monks fell down. Their bodies were unharmed, but they were no longer alive.

"The devil cultivator is still rampant!" Zheng Shuanggou was furious and rushed forward.

The black shadow demon turned around and fought with Zheng Shuanggou.

"Master Ning Zhanji!" the Ning family cultivator shouted.

But Ning Zhanji fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, dying with his eyes open.

Having lost the protection of the formation and their leader, the subsequent monsters continued to attack them, and the Ning family monks could only flee in all directions!
Casualties quickly mounted.

At the critical moment, Ning Zhuo suddenly shouted: "Take the passage where the Jindan cultivators rushed over. There must be the least monsters there!!"

After receiving the reminder, the Ning family cultivators who were in a state of panic were all startled.

"Yup!"

"In that passage, which was clashed with two Jindans in succession, there must be the least monsters."

"Just go there!!"

So, everyone in the Ning family united as one again and rushed towards the entrance.

"Ning Yong, Ning Chen, follow me closely!" Ning Zhuo opened his heart, took out a number of frost talismans, and scattered them around. These were all accumulated from his daily talisman making in the school, and they had a long history.

Ning Yong and Ning Chen's eyes were red, and in panic, they subconsciously followed Ning Zhuo, fighting with all their might to fight for their chance of survival. The three of them supported each other, and "dangerously" caught up with the Ning family's large force and entered the entrance.

Looking back, the two Jindans were fighting so fiercely that the monsters were frightened and fled in all directions.

Many monsters and the Ning family members fled in the same direction and pounced on them from behind.

The front of the passage was filled with corpses of monsters, with very few surviving, but more and more monsters were pouring in from behind.

Under such pressure, the Ning family monks could only bite the bullet and run desperately forward along the passage.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Along the way, they encountered some monsters blocking the road, but they were all killed by the Ning family monks who were fleeing madly.

"What is that?!"

"Lava Fairy Palace!"

“I didn’t expect that this passage could also lead to the Lava Fairy Palace.”

The Ning family monks discovered a lava lake, with a corner of the fairy palace building slightly exposed in the lake.

"Lava Fairy Palace..." Ning Zhuo whispered, his expression was quite natural. As an ordinary boy, he was inevitably captivated by the Fairy Palace when he saw it for the first time. But no one saw the gleam of light that suddenly appeared in his eyes!
In fact, he had already anticipated this result.

Ning Chen, who was standing by, panted and reacted, and shouted, "This is actually not that hard to guess!"

"Didn't the answers revealed by the words of the two Jindans during their previous battle?"

"It is very likely that the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator wanted to sneak in, but was intercepted by Zheng Shuanggou!"

The situation of the Ning family monks was very embarrassing.

In front is a lava lake with a corner of the fairy palace building exposed, and behind is a constant stream of monsters.

Being forced into a corner, the remaining members of the Ning family could only form a defensive formation once again.

They formed two formations, one outside and one inside, nesting each other. The monster's attack was much weaker than in the underground square.

"We can stop them!!" The Ning family cultivators were just rejoicing when a loud roar and explosion were heard.

"Where are you going?!" Zheng Shuanggou's angry roar was getting closer and closer.

The Ning family cultivators suddenly felt as if they had fallen into an icy cave. From the noise, it was obvious that the black shadow demon cultivator had come back again!
"It seems like we are doomed today!" Ning Yong's face turned pale.

Ning Chen simply closed his eyes, completely in despair.

Just when they had ignited their hope for survival, it was ruthlessly crushed. After such ups and downs, the two new monks lost all their fighting spirit.

"I'm dead! So what?" Ning Zhuo suddenly shouted, "It's better to die in battle than to die in humiliation!"

Provoked by this, Ning Yong's face changed. He mustered up the courage in the desperate situation and stood up with gritted teeth.

Ning Chen opened his eyes and looked at Ning Zhuo, secretly admiring his classmate's bravery before his death.

He was also inspired with courage: "A Zhuo, well said! To die at the hands of Jin Dan and in front of the Lava Fairy Palace is a worthy death."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge cloud of smoke rushed in. The smoke was extremely black, containing surging dark energy, which could block the perception of spiritual consciousness.

In the blink of an eye, dark shadows gathered in the black smoke and condensed together to form countless shadow snakes and pythons, which crashed into the lava fairy palace in the magma lake.

But they were only halfway through the collision when the terrifying giant snakes and pythons were unable to dissipate.

Zheng Shuanggou's roar was heard: "Attack the Immortal Palace? Don't even think about it!!"

But soon after, the snake python appeared again, but this time it did not attack the fairy palace, but directly attacked the surrounding passages.

Under such fierce attack, the walls of the passage were suddenly cracked and almost collapsed.

"Mad man!" Zheng Shuanggou felt a chill in his heart when he saw this scene.

He had no choice but to switch from offense to defense, using all his strength and surging magic power to cover the passage and protect it.

In the black smoke, a long shadow snake suddenly crashed into the Ning family's formation.

Without any surprise, the Ning family formation was not able to withstand the Jindan-level attack and it fell apart in an instant!
Black smoke rolled in like an overwhelming force, completely obscuring the vision of the remaining members of the Ning family.

"Come on!" Ning Yong shouted, bursting out all his courage and determined to fight to the death.

The black smoke was billowing and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Ning Zhuo seemed to be alone in an instant.

He took out the token and transformed it into a Cang Tie Han armor. The armor covered his body, and immediately gave him the strength to build a foundation!
