Chapter 277: Annihilation

Chapter 277: Annihilation

As two Qi Cultivation disciples fell to the ground, pierced by the Flying Swords, Wang Hong arrived just in time.

With a swift movement, he entered the formation of the merchant group and quickly placed pills in the mouths of the fallen Qi Cultivation practitioners.

Simultaneously, countless Poisonous Bees swarmed out from his sleeves.

Instead of targeting any specific individual, this large group of Poisonous Bees scattered and attacked all the treasure-seeking cultivators.

While this couldn't eliminate the enemy quickly, it greatly distracted their attention, preventing them from focusing on a full-scale attack.

At this moment, the Formation composed of the remaining ninety-eight Qi Cultivation practitioners was no longer stationary. They charged toward the group of treasure-seekers.

Their Divine Sense was limited to about ten yards, so they had to get closer to unleash their Magical Weapons against the enemy.

After feeding the pills to the two Qi Cultivation practitioners, Wang Hong swiftly returned, wielding a Long Spear and charging towards the treasure-seekers alongside Little Peng.

He Yuan, who had been responsible for harassment, automatically followed Wang Hong as he entered the fray.

In this brief moment, most of the treasure-seekers had exhausted their Spiritual Power reserves, causing their realms to slowly decline.

The defensive Spiritual Weapons they had summoned grew dim under the attacks of the Poisonous Bees.

These dim Spiritual Weapons, whether middle-grade or lower-grade, couldn't withstand Wang Hong's powerful strikes.

Leading the four companions, Wang Hong entered the midst of the treasure-seekers, like a force of nature. At this point, he no longer cared about the merchant group and was fully intent on surrounding and killing him.

The remaining members of the merchant group finally regained their strength and began attacking the treasure-seekers from the outside.

With eight Foundation Building cultivators and ninety-eight Qi Cultivation cultivators, their actions were coordinated and precise. Each strike focused on a single treasure-seeker, and their combined efforts resulted in almost every strike killing one of the treasure-seekers.

At this moment, the tide of battle had completely reversed. The once-advantageous treasure-seekers, who had previously bullied the weaker, now appeared fierce and ruthless.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com

Under their current disadvantage, everyone had lost their will to fight, fleeing in panic like hunted dogs.

Surprisingly, the first to flee was Changshan himself. Affected by the Devouring Spirit Poison, his Spiritual Power was completely depleted.

Since he was just a treasure-seeker, he could kill and loot wherever he went. There was no need for him to fight to the death here.

However, his Qi Cultivation subordinates couldn't keep up, so he assigned a few Foundation Building cultivators to stay behind with them.

Luo Zhongjie immediately took the two captives, wielded his Spiritual Weapon, and led the way. Wang Hong followed with several Foundation Building subordinates.

They soon reached a peak, and halfway up the mountain was a second-tier protective formation. From the outside, it looked like a bank of clouds.

Luo Zhongjie and the others were about to attack the formation, but Wang Hong stopped them. He was eager to personally break through this formation.

He circled around the formation a few times, then sat down and formed hand seals. In the air, he drew a rune and directed it towards the formation's Qian position. The rune disappeared into the formation.

Then, he drew another rune and directed it towards the formation's Kun position. He continued this process, drawing a total of eight runes before stopping.

He slowly got up, walked to a certain spot, and waved his hand towards the cloud bank. A large part of the mist dispersed, revealing a passage with stone walls on both sides.

Wang Hong was the first to step into the passage, and at the end, he drew runes in several directions, then waved his hand again, dispelling more mist.

Another section of the passage became visible, but this time, Wang Hong didn't advance further. He turned around and said to the others behind him, "Follow me, and don't get lost."

After giving this instruction, Wang Hong took three steps forward, made a right turn, and went straight through the stone wall to the right.

The surprising thing was that the others saw Wang Hong pass right through the wall, disappearing into it.

After a short while, they saw Wang Hong emerge from the wall at the end of the passage. He stood there, waving to signal them.

Luo Zhongjie quickly moved forward, reached the spot where Wang Hong had made the right turn, and followed suit, walking right through the stone wall.

It took Wang Hong and his group some effort, but they finally reached the end of the passage. Although it had taken some effort, breaking through a Large Formation with his own hands left Wang Hong feeling quite satisfied.

At the end of the passage, they found a spacious hall with luminescent stones on the ceiling for illumination. The interior was rather simple.

There were several branching paths inside, and with the guidance of the captives, they proceeded down one of the paths.

Soon, they came across a hidden chamber, protected by yet another formation. Wang Hong spent some time dismantling the protective formation outside the chamber.
