Immortality Through Array Formations

Jin Gui's gaze even carried a hint of pity, "You've been captured in this Valley of Ten Thousand Demons for some time now, haven't you? Take a guess, why have your parents not made any moves?"

"Guess what they're doing?"

Song Jian was stumped by the question, momentarily bewildered.

He's been locked in the valley, how would he know what his parents are doing.

Jin Gui smirked mockingly and said with scorn:

"What else could they be doing? They're weighing the pros and cons! Weighing whether to save you, their son."

"If the cost is too great, they would rather you die, so it's all settled, saving themselves the trouble!"

Song Jian's face turned pale, he shouted angrily: "You're talking nonsense, they are my parents, how could they not care whether I live or die?"

Jin Gui shook his head, his tone cold, "It seems you know nothing about the rules of the family."

"Cultivators form families, families are maintained by bloodlines, but ironically, family affection is the coldest."

"Most cultivators in the family value one thing above all, and that's profit!"

"If interests conflict, even if you're from the same family, the same lineage, or even the same parents, they will still hope for your death."

"Your parents don't just have you as a son, if you die, they might shed a few tears, and after some time, they might even forget you."

Song Jian urgently said, "You're lying!"

Jin Gui sneered coldly.

Ling Huxiao's gaze turned cold, he said to Song Jian: "Don't waste your breath on him, he's stalling for time."

"Stalling for time?" Jin Gui's expression was arrogant, "To deal with you guys, would I even need to stall for time?"

"Yes, I'm of humble birth and my aptitude is poor, I can't compare to you direct lineage disciples."

Jin Gui's tone shifted, his gaze full of resentment, "But now, I am not who I used to be, I've been reborn! Today, I will show you what it means to be the true king among demons..."

Jin Gui's voice grew increasingly rugged, until it no longer sounded human, but was instead like the roar of a fierce tiger.

His body, with a flash of robust unmatched monster patterns, gradually expanded, sprouting yellow-brown fur, transforming into the fangs and claws of a fierce tiger.

Jin Gui's presence briefly felt like a powerful Tiger Demon, intimidating all around him.

Ling Huxiao and his companions all showed a change in expression, and they all drew their swords.

"Take action!"

All along the way, the three had already developed some tacit understanding in joint killing.

Song Jian used the Sever Gold Sword Jue to engage the demonized Jin Gui in close combat, while Ouyang Mu, not particularly skilled in the Taia Sword Skill, could only assist from the side.

Meanwhile, Ling Huxiao began gathering strength, concentrating intensely sharp Chongxu Sword Qi.

But Jin Gui, already demonized and bearing the Four Symbols Mysterious Tiger Demon Patterns, had greatly increased strength, and in just a few moves, he suppressed Song Jian in close combat.

Then, with a backhand, he knocked back Ouyang Mu.

Both Song Jian and Ouyang Mu spat blood from their mouths.

At just this moment, a luminescent as the moon, murderously sharp Chongxu Sword Qi, directly struck Jin Gui's body.

The sword qi tore apart Jin Gui's black robe, revealing the monster patterns on his back, simultaneously cutting a deep wound, exposing black-red flesh.

But in an instant, his wound was continually healing.

Ling Huxiao gritted his teeth, feeling a bit helpless.

The gap in cultivation levels was too obvious.

Moreover, along the way, he had already expended a significant amount of spiritual power, making it very difficult to condense sword qi at this point.

Mo Hua's expression also faltered.

This Jin Gui, the patterns on his body, are they the rare "Tiger type" monster patterns?

This type of monster pattern, Mo Hua had never seen on any other monster cultivator's body before.

Moreover, the tiger is the king of beasts, the augmentative power of this tiger pattern is clearly a notch stronger compared to the Four Symbols Patterns of other monster beasts.

The current Jin Gui, compared to before, was simply unrecognizable.

In the field, Ling Huxiao and the other two were not surprisingly embroiled in a bitter struggle.

Song Jian and Ouyang Mu in close combat were simply no match for the "Tiger Patterns" bearing Jin Gui.

And once Ling Huxiao was engaged in close combat, he had no chance to gather sword qi, and posed very little threat to the demonized, thick-skinned Jin Gui.

Jin Gui, fighting one against three, was at ease.

Mo Hua silently reached into the storage bag, took out a Sever Gold Sword, intending to try whether he could slay Jin Gui and copy down the Four Symbols Tiger Patterns on him.

But just as he had this thought, he silently put the sword away again.

Someone was approaching from the distance.

The leader was none other than the black-clad leader of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, also the senior brother of the Sever Gold Sect—Jin Yixuan.

Besides, there were several managers and seven or eight monster cultivators.

Mo Hua sighed deeply.

"Now, truly, it's hopeless..."

Even with himself added, it would not be possible to match this group of monster cultivators.

Sword control could at most kill one or two, but it would also expose his whereabouts.

Moreover, the demonized Jin Gui was too strong.

Mo Hua estimated that even if he used sword control, it might not be able to kill him in one blow.

Not to mention, there were still a number of other managers, and the obviously more formidable leader of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons with Mr. Tu's remnant soul attached—Jin Yixuan.

To put it another way, even if he could kill, it would actually be of no avail.

With so many monster cultivators surrounding, the three people including Little Wood, certainly wouldn't be able to escape...

At this moment, seeing the people arriving, Jin Gui stopped holding back and resolved to end the fight quickly.

In just over a dozen rounds, Song Jian and Ouyang Mu were hit by Jin Gui's palm, spitting blood from their mouths.

Ling Huxiao was also punched by Jin Gui on his spirit sword, his blood surged, leaving him unable to fight further.

All three remembered what Mo Hua had said:

"If someone stops you, do not act rashly, don't think of anything like rather die than surrender, fighting to the bitter end, just surrender honestly..."

Therefore, none of them acted rashly and obediently gave in.

Ling Huxiao felt unwilling, yet truly had no choice.

Jin Yixuan led a group of monster cultivators forward, first praising Jin Gui with a sentence: "Well done."
