Chapter 4376
Ning Zhi retrieved the small furnace tripod, and as he tossed it into the air, an immense suction force began to draw in the flames unleashed by Kai!
The fiery breath was rapidly consumed by the furnace tripod, causing the fire dragons to vanish in an instant!
Kai observed the magical item that Ning Zhi had conjured and couldn’t help but frown. It appeared that this weapon was specifically designed to counter fire-based attacks.
With the fire dragons gone, only the lightning and sword light remained, making it significantly easier for the group of over a dozen demon cultivators to defend against Kai!
Ning Zhi retracted the furnace tripod but opted not to engage Kai in battle. Instead, he narrowed his eyes slightly before suddenly diving into the depths of the sea!
Ning Zhi’s abrupt plunge into the ocean left both the demon cultivators and Kai momentarily bewildered!
Especially Kai; he had never anticipated that Ning Zhi would pass up the chance to attack him and instead launch himself into the sea!
Just moments ago, the group of demon cultivators had entered the water while Ning Zhi remained hovering in the air!
Now, with everyone above the water, Ning Zhi’s sudden descent into the sea completely baffled Kai!
Upon entering the Dead Sea, Ning Zhi found himself enveloped in dark energy as he plunged deeper into the ocean.
He intended to reach the seabed to investigate the trap that Kai had set!
With Kai engaged in battle against the demon cultivators above, Ning Zhi saw this as the perfect opportunity to explore the depths!
Although Kai was perplexed by Ning Zhi’s actions, he was determined to pursue him!
This sudden dive into the sea clearly indicated that Ning Zhi had some sort of plan!
However, the group of demon cultivators was unwilling to let Kai escape and quickly surrounded him to keep him occupied!
Ning Zhi descended to the seabed, surveying his surroundings and the towering mountains, but a sense of unease began to creep into his mind.
Yet, he could not locate the demon-subduing formation that Kai had set up and would never have guessed that Kai had laid such a trap in this area!
The expanse was vast, and Ning Zhi couldn’t fathom how Kai could create such a large formation in such a short time!
“Since I don’t know what the trap entails, I suppose I’ll just have to test it out…”
As soon as Ning Zhi finished speaking, his expression hardened, and the dark energy surrounding him surged outward!
However, just as the dark energy spread, the mountains around him ignited with a series of array patterns!
The demon-subduing array was activated. Ning Zhi stared incredulously at the glowing array patterns; this was the first time he had encountered such a massive formation!
He couldn’t believe that Kai had managed to set this up by himself in such a brief time; it seemed more likely that Kai had stumbled upon this pre-existing large array!
Perhaps it was the remnants of a long-gone sect!
With no time to ponder further, Ning Zhi shot out from the seabed like a cannonball!
He was certainly not foolish enough to confront such a vast array!
As he breached the surface, Ning Zhi yelled, “Everyone, retreat! Don’t engage any longer!”
Even though he was unaware of the true power harbored within the large array, he instinctively urged everyone to withdraw!
After all, the energy unleashed by such a colossal formation would surely be formidable! The group of demon cultivators, still unaware of what had alarmed Ning Zhi at the seabed, looked at him in confusion!
They couldn’t comprehend what Ning Zhi had witnessed that caused such fear!
Just as the demon cultivators were left in bewilderment, a sudden buzzing sound erupted!
The sea’s surface trembled, and before them, a dazzling array of lights illuminated the area, creating a brilliant curtain of light that sealed off the vicinity!
“What… what is happening?”
One demon cultivator exclaimed in shock before unleashing a flurry of spiritual energy, only for it to bounce harmlessly off the light curtain!
Seeing this unfold, Ning Zhi grimaced. Despite his caution, he had still fallen into Kai’s trap!
He had never anticipated that such a vast formation would exist in this location!
