The Legend of the Demon Hunter

"Then why didn't you just explain the reason to me directly and bring me here? Why did you have to disguise yourself as Xiaoya and go to so much trouble to lure me here step by step?" Xiao Zhu scratched his head, still puzzled by Ning Zhiwan's behavior.

Hearing this, Ning Zhiwan's face flushed: "Brother Xiao, this is just my selfish desire as a woman. With my current identity, if I go to see you directly, I'm sure you will agree, but it will only take a few hours to get here. If I transform into another person, I can spend more time with Brother Xiao. In addition, I also want to prove one thing..."

"Prove what?" Xiao Zhu was puzzled.

"Prove whether Brother Xiao really has Wan'er in his heart besides Xia Shi..." Ning Zhiwan lowered her head, her face turned red with shyness.

Hearing Ning Zhiwan's straightforward expression of his feelings, Xiao Zhu didn't know how to respond. He avoided the topic and pointed at the deep well and said, "Now that we are all here, what do we need to do next?"

Ning Zhiwan saw Xiao Zhu's reaction, a hint of disappointment flashed across her beautiful eyes, but she quickly regained her composure, pointed at the deep well and said, "Today, Tian Huan's seal is already in tatters. Within a year, Zhu Long will break through the seal and reappear in the world. By then, with Zhu Long's strength, it will inevitably cause chaos in the world and cause great suffering to all living beings. So our plan is to strike first. While Zhu Long has been suppressed for a thousand years and is weak, we will set up a formation here, take the initiative to open the seal and release Zhu Long, and take the opportunity to kill the evil dragon!"

"Kill Zhulong..." Xiao Zhu took a breath of cold air.

"What do you think, Brother Xiao, are you willing to help Wan'er?" Ning Zhiwan asked.

Xiao Zhu thought for a while. He believed that Ning Zhiwan would not lie to him because of her friendship with him. He nodded and said, "Okay."

Hearing Xiao Zhu's affirmative answer, Ning Zhiwan's face showed joy. She turned around and looked at the eleven members of the Red Lotus Sect. Her red lips parted slightly, and her cold and majestic voice resounded throughout the space: "Activate the Dragon Binding Fault!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the eleven people immediately acted in unison. The eight cardinals flew high into the sky, and a magic circle appeared in the air. The eight people flew into the magic circle and disappeared.

The three white-robed archbishops flew in three directions respectively. They flew out of the platform and hovered above the lava.

After everyone was in position, Ning Zhiwan gave the order: "Form a formation!"

The three archbishops in white robes cast spells at the same time, and three beams of light shot up into the sky. Then, a circle was formed with the place where Xiao Zhu and Ning Zhiwan were standing as the center and the three archbishops as the edge.

"Brother Xiao, be careful. I'm going to start breaking the formation." Ning Zhiwan glanced at Xiao Zhu, then she flew into the air, and the Blood Glaze appeared in Ning Zhiwan's hand again.

Although Xiao Zhu had seen Ning Zhiwan use Blood Glaze five years ago, the power she displayed today was completely different from that year. Ning Zhiwan stood with a sword in her hand, the red light enveloped her entire body, and she was filled with an invincible feeling.

Xiao Zhu looked at Ning Zhiwan. Her progress in cultivation was a miracle. What on earth had she experienced in these five years?

Ning Zhiwan used blood-colored glass to draw a complex rune in the air. The rune flashed and then rushed into the deep well.

The moment the rune fell, it was like a calm ocean being stirred up by raging waves. A resisting blue light immediately appeared in the deep well, forcing the red rune out of the well. But at the same time, a slowly rotating blue seal appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing this scene, Ning Zhiwan confidently formed the formation again. The Blood Glaze was suspended in front of her, and a circular red formation condensed in front of her. The pattern on the surface of this formation was exactly the same as the blue seal on the ground, but the direction of rotation was completely opposite.

Ning Zhiwan frowned slightly, and her pretty face became serious. She slowly pushed the red magic circle in front of her onto the blue magic circle on the ground, and the two magic circles that were exactly the same but in opposite directions overlapped.

A loud "boom" was heard, and the red and blue lights intertwined, producing a violent explosion. The force of the explosion shattered the platform on the ground and sank it into the magma. The entire secret room was completely covered by magma, and there was no intact ground anymore.

The next moment, a blue light emerged from the magma. This scene seemed familiar, because what appeared in front of Xiao Zhu was a blue groove, and the shape of the groove was exactly the same as that of the Greedy Wolf Sword.

"Brother Xiao, hurry up! Put the Xiyin sword into the groove." Ning Zhiwan reminded.

Xiao Zhu understood that this was the critical moment to activate the array key. Out of trust in Ning Zhiwan, he immediately summoned the Greedy Wolf Sword and flew towards the array groove.

"Ding——" The Tanlang Sword fell into the groove, making a sound like the collision of metal, but the imagined changes did not happen, and the sealing formation was motionless.

"How could this happen?" Ning Zhiwan looked at the sealing formation in confusion. Obviously, this scene was beyond her imagination. Even the three white-robed archbishops in the distance who had closed their eyes and were concentrating on casting spells opened their eyes and stared at Xiao Zhu and Tan Lang Sword.

The next moment, Xiao Zhu suddenly felt a strong suction coming from the sealing array, and the five spiritual powers in his body surged out of his body uncontrollably and were sucked into the sealing array. This change made Xiao Zhu panic instantly, and he tried his best to stop the leakage of spiritual power, but it was useless. In a blink of an eye, most of his spiritual power was absorbed, but the array did not stop absorbing spiritual power at all. As a demon hunter, Xiao Zhu knew very well that after his spiritual power was sucked dry, his vitality would be lost next.

With the absorption capacity of the sealing formation here, he would probably be sucked dry in a short while.

At this critical moment, a blood-red light slashed down, blocking Xiao Zhu and the sealing formation. Xiao Zhu felt a soft hand holding him, and then a red light flashed, and he and Ning Zhiwan had retreated behind the three white-robed archbishops.

"Brother Xiao, are you okay?" Ning Zhiwan asked with concern.

Xiao Zhu was still in shock. He checked the remaining spiritual power in his body and found that it was almost gone. He nodded and said, "It's okay. I just lost some spiritual power."

At this moment, the formation in the center of the secret room suddenly emitted a dazzling light, first yellow, then green, blue, red, and brown. Five kinds of light flashed one by one, which was the power of the five spirits of the spiritual bloodline.

Seeing what was happening in front of him, Sun Yi, who was most proficient in the art of formation, suddenly realized: "It turns out that in order to prevent others from stealing the Xiyin Sword and opening the seal without authorization, Tian Huan actually injected psychic power into the seal. Unless someone with psychic blood opens the seal, others will be backfired by the formation seal. This technique is really clever, even I didn't notice it."

After hearing what Sun Yi said, everyone suddenly realized.

In the formation, as the power of the five spirits dissipated, the Greedy Wolf Sword flew back into Xiao Zhu's hand. At this time, a "click" sound came from the seal formation, like the sound of glass breaking. The sound was not loud, but it undoubtedly touched the hearts of the five people present.

Afterwards, the secret room fell into silence, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the place where the formation disappeared, where the lava stirred slightly.

"Gurgle, gurgle--" two bubbles floated up.
