Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

Bear bear bear...

The raging fire was constantly suppressed by the formation, roaring like a trapped beast, and the flames began to thin out.

Meanwhile, Lu Zaian's Azure Cold Treasure Mirror has been completed.

"With a century of cold marrow as its bone and second-order ice crystals as its surface... the Azure Frost Mirror is finally complete."

A mirror the size of a jade plate floated in mid-air, emanating a chilling aura!

Even the fire spirit energy within the Nanming Palace was partially extinguished...

Lu Zaian cast a series of spells, put away the Azure Frost Mirror, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Is it all finished refining?"

Jiuyou, who had been meditating nearby, woke up and asked.

"good……"

Just as Lu Zaian was about to speak, his white eyebrows suddenly furrowed, as if he had sensed something.

"what happened?"

Jiuyou also sensed something was wrong and suddenly stood up.

"In the southeast... someone has touched the great formation, and the fluctuation of magical power is at least at the mid-Foundation Establishment level."

Lu Zaian said, word by word.

The Small Yin-Yang Creation Array is a combined array with multiple layers of illusion arrays on the outer layer, which is sufficient to filter out mortals who mistakenly enter.

However, the attack just now directly broke through the defensive mechanism of the great formation and was sensed by Lu Zaian.

"Go and see!"

Jiuyou's expression remained unchanged.

Regardless of whether the person who comes is friend or foe, if they are only in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, then they are not worth fearing.

Lu Zaian nodded; he was also curious to see who had triggered the great formation…

Immediately, the two figures flickered and disappeared into the Nanming Palace.

.........

Changli Mountain Range, eastern foothills.

This area belongs to the Liushi region, where the mountains are desolate and filled with jagged rocks.

The air was filled with extremely volatile fire elemental energy!

Three Foundation Establishment cultivators were seen chasing and killing more than ten gray-robed cultivators.

Suddenly, the leading Foundation Establishment cultivator stopped, a look of doubt flashing across his face.

"stop!"

The two Foundation Establishment stage cultivators beside him immediately stopped.

"What's wrong? Fourth Elder, shall we continue the chase?"

"Yes, your attack just now hit Su Xuanhuo. They are already at their last gasp and can't escape!"

The cultivator known as the "Fourth Elder" looked ahead, his expression shifting between light and shadow, and slowly spoke.

"...It not only hit that old guy, but it also seems to have hit a formation..."

Ahead, the dozen or so people who were fleeing suddenly stopped!

The gray-robed elder at the head coughed up black blood and collapsed to the ground, weakly saying...

"Cough cough... Stop! There's a... killing formation ahead!"

Upon hearing this, the gray-robed cultivators beside him were all greatly alarmed.

"Wha...what!"

"Isn't it said that the Changli Mountains are sparsely populated?"

"Could there be another trap set up by the Burning Palace ahead?"

At this moment, a man in a gray robe in the group hurriedly came forward and helped the old man up.

"Grandpa, are you alright?!"

She took off her hood, revealing a head of red hair; even with her face covered in dust, her delicate features were still undeniable.

Her voice was just as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate, but it was tinged with sobs.

"Li'er, don't cry... Grandpa won't die."

Su Xuanhuo held on to his last breath, observing the fluctuations of spiritual energy ahead.

The surrounding mountains and landforms appeared and disappeared, creating a mesmerizing illusion!

It was as if heaven and earth had been turned upside down, and a chilling murderous intent filled the air!

If it weren't for the accidental attack by the Burning Palace pursuers, he probably wouldn't have even realized that he and his group had stepped into a killing formation!

"Judging from this formation, it is likely of the second-tier high-grade level. If we take another step forward, it will surely trigger a killing move..."

Su Xuanhuo felt a chill run down his spine, a wave of fear washing over him.

It doesn't matter if I die, but if I implicate Li'er, then all that time they've been on the run will have been for nothing.

Another man in gray robes said with despair in his eyes, unwilling to accept it.

"How could this be? We were just about to escape the Burning Palace after crossing the Changli Mountains, but suddenly a killing formation blocked our way."

"Is Heaven determined to destroy my Crimson Forge Immortal Workshop lineage?"

At the same time, three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Burning Palace slowly approached from behind.

"Run? Why don't you run?"

"Heh heh, you've wasted months of our time. Once we catch you, we'll definitely torture you properly with the Soul-Burning Lamp..."

Two Foundation Establishment stage cultivators from the Burning Ash Palace mocked and sneered.

Only the 'Fourth Elder' was uneasy, looking around frequently, and spoke up.

"Fifth brother, sixth brother, let's finish this quickly. This killing formation has appeared out of nowhere; I'm afraid things might get complicated if we delay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned a fire banner, raised his hand and waved it, sending out several fire snakes that flew straight towards the crowd below.

“It’s the Demon-Burning Banner!” Su Xuanhuo’s expression turned solemn.

After months of pursuit, Su Xuanhuo knew all too well how ruthless the Fourth Elder of the Burning Ash Palace was.

"Fight!"

Su Xuanhuo was about to fight desperately to buy himself a moment of opportunity.

But then, the young girl Su Li stepped half a step into the killing formation behind them and shouted:

"You dogs of the Burning Palace, didn't you want my Glazed Dao Body?"

"If you dare take another step forward, I'll charge headlong into this killing formation and see how you explain yourselves to the Palace Master!"

Su Li's voice echoed throughout the entire venue, like a cuckoo crying blood, each sound a mournful lament.

"you!"

Upon hearing this, the fourth elder of the Burning Palace changed his expression and immediately stopped holding the fire flag.

"Stop! Pui! Stop your legs!"

"Li'er, you!" Su Xuanhuo was also taken aback.

Su Li's mind raced, then she shouted sweetly:

"Isn't it because my Glazed Dao Body can condense a Core Formation Spiritual Material like the [Glazed Fire Spiritual Elixir] that you keep chasing after me?"

If the Burning Palace can spare the others, I am willing to surrender.

What if we also add the Crimson Forging Immortal Workshop's secret technique—the Crimson Fire Forging Pill Technique?

This is a secret technique that can transform fire poison crystal ore into elixirs!

The words echoed throughout the room, and everyone was taken aback.

"Junior sister?"

"Sister, you..."

Within the gray-robed group, everyone looked at each other, unsure whether Su Li was telling the truth or not.

On the other hand, the Fifth Elder of the Burning Palace retorted sarcastically:

"The Burning Palace only wants the Glazed Dao Body, so why don't you step in and stop Su Li for me, and make amends for your actions?"

"We can grant you the positions of true disciples of the Burning Ashes Palace, guaranteeing you wealth and honor, and helping you establish your foundation for immortality!"

The Sixth Elder's eyes lit up, and he secretly sighed, "What a brilliant scheme to sow discord!"

"Fifth brother, shut up!"

The Fourth Elder's expression changed, and by the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late.

The next moment, an incomparably terrifying divine sense surged forth like a tidal wave!

Like a monstrous wave, it engulfed everyone present in the blink of an eye.

That terrifying divine sense repeatedly scanned and examined the young girl Su Li's body, her bones and meridians...

Su Li trembled slightly, like a small boat rocking and bobbing in the waves.

She gritted her teeth, ignoring the shame of being scrutinized.

I guessed right!

This grand formation has an owner, and the important figure who set it up is nearby!

"interesting."

A deep, resonant laugh echoed through the mountains, and the immense divine consciousness receded like the tide.

Immediately afterwards, an elderly man wearing a dark blue cloak slowly stepped out from the formation.
