Rakish Little Immortal Doctor

"Kill us?" Rat, as if he had heard the world's biggest joke, burst into laughter, and then his expression suddenly turned ferocious, "Back on the mountain, we were just careless and you took us by surprise. But now, we have set up a formation in the Earth God Temple. Here, no matter how strong you are, you won't be our match!" Then, Rat exchanged a glance with Fat Cat, they nodded gently to each other, and simultaneously performed hand seals. Instantly, the ground was covered in dense, black runes, and a strange black luster rose within the formation, enveloping the entire space. Within that black luster, the hazy silhouettes of talismans could be seen. Each talisman emitted an extremely sinister aura, and mournful ghostly cries echoed through the air. They had actually set up the formation in advance! Soon, Li Qianfan realized something was wrong. He turned to flee the formation with Xue Siqi and Zhao Susu, but he quickly discovered that an invisible force had bound his body, slowing his movements. Xue Siqi and Zhao Susu seemed fixed in place, not only unable to move but also struggling to breathe, and the constant ghostly cries within the formation brought fearful expressions to their faces. After all, they were ordinary people and had never seen such a horrifying scene. "How do you feel?" Li Qianfan immediately asked the two women behind him. "Qianfan brother, my body hurts so much!" Before long, Zhao Susu spoke with difficulty, her pretty face filled with pain. Xue Siqi, on the other hand, simply shook her head, "Brother Fan, I just feel a bit suffocated and can't move, but I'm not in pain!" Hearing this, Li Qianfan immediately turned his gaze to Zhao Susu. When he saw that the 'Qingming' elemental energy within her was frantically absorbing the power of the formation, he immediately smelled an ominous premonition. The power of this formation was precisely the type of energy that Qingming elemental energy loved to absorb! As the Qingming elemental energy absorbed the formation's power, Zhao Susu's body naturally began to feel pain. Not good! Trepidation filled Li Qianfan's heart. If he allowed the Qingming elemental energy to keep absorbing, Zhao Susu's body wouldn't be able to withstand it and would explode. He had to break the formation quickly! However, this was his first encounter with a formation, and he was somewhat at a loss as to what to do. But soon, the Sky-reaching Precious Tome flashed across Li Qianfan's mind. This book not only contained records of various talismans but also many methods for creating and breaking formations. Black aura, talisman illusions, lamentful ghostly cries! Combining these clues, Li Qianfan quickly found the name of the formation in the Sky-reaching Precious Tome: the Ghost Shadow Illusion Array! It was a formation that enhanced one's own strength and weakened the enemy's. An enemy enveloped by the formation would be surrounded by ghostly shadows, their strength would drop by about half instantly, and they would move slowly, easily falling into a disadvantage; while those boosted by the formation would see a significant increase in both strength and speed. The method to break it was simple, the Ghost Shadow Illusion Array was comprised of eighteen talismans, one of which was the eye of the formation. Destroying it would cause the formation to lose effect, but finding the eye talisman was very difficult! "Chen Bo, haven't you always wanted revenge?" Fat Cat looked at Chen Bo with a cold smile, "In the formation, his strength will be greatly reduced while yours will be enhanced. I'll give you the chance to take him down personally." "Ha ha ha, thanks, Cat brother!" Chen Bo's face lit up with excitement upon hearing this. He tightly gripped his dagger, leaped forward, and instantly entered the formation. As Chen Bo entered the formation, Fat Cat and Rat performed hand seals again, and instantly, the black qi within surged into Chen Bo's body. Feeling the rapidly climbing power, Chen Bo was ecstatic. He was confident that with his current strength, he could smash Li Qianfan's head with a single punch. He looked at Li Qianfan with a fierce grin and said, "Weren't you very arrogant before? Today is the day you die!!" With that said, Chen Bo, holding his dagger, charged toward Li Qianfan with incredible speed. Chen Bo himself was already a powerful 'Sixth Stage' Martial Arts Practitioner, and now, with the boost of the Ghost Shadow Illusion Array, his speed was at its peak; in an instant, he was before Li Qianfan, the sharp dagger gleaming with bone-chilling cold light, thrusting straight at Li Qianfan's head.
