Chapter 13048: The Immortal Ghost Formation
However, Ling Xiao seemed tireless. He kept attacking and was knocked back. Every time he fell, he stood up more fiercely. The light of the Tianluo magic tool flickered around him. It was his only support and the key to his persistence until now.

If this magical weapon had not yet completely lost its effectiveness, Ling Xiao would have been wiped out by Ji Tianyan's powerful attack.

The people around were all shocked and puzzled when they saw this scene. They couldn't understand why Ling Xiao was so persistent, and they didn't understand what he wanted to achieve. In the eyes of many people, Ling Xiao's behavior at this moment had lost his mind and was a completely meaningless struggle.

At this time, on the other side of the battlefield, Jiang Xiqing was surrounded by the faint light of the Soul Locking Pearl. Although the light was dim, it contained determination and unyielding. She clenched her teeth, and her eyes flashed with determination, as if she wanted to concentrate all her strength at this moment.

Following her angry roar, the Soul Locking Pearl finally released its last bit of power. This power was like a raging torrent that instantly submerged the Ji Xiong and killed it invisibly. Only the Ji Xiong's unwilling roar and the gradually dissipating energy fluctuations remained in the air.

At the same time, exciting news came from the battlefield on the other side. The thirteen demon generals, these once unknown existences, unexpectedly collectively ushered in a breakthrough in their realm at the critical moment of life and death. Their auras surged instantly, as if they were reborn.

They cooperated tacitly and launched a fierce attack together, hitting Ji Bai directly and giving him a fatal blow. In this short period of time, two of the four masters of the Ji family were killed, and the situation on the battlefield was reversed in an instant.

Ji Tianyan noticed all this, frowned, and a solemn look flashed across his eyes. He quickly turned around, swept his eyes across the battlefield, and finally fixed his gaze on the gradually dissipating energy fluctuations.

Anger and resentment intertwined in his heart, but he knew that now was not the time to be distracted. He took a deep breath, raised his hand, and prepared to attack again to save the Ji family from decline.

However, at this critical moment, a determined figure appeared in front of Ji Tianyan like a ghost, blocking his way. Although the figure was in a miserable state, with torn clothes and covered with scars, there was an unyielding light in his eyes. It was Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao was once again knocked away by Ji Tianyan's powerful force. His body drew an arc in the air and fell heavily to the ground. But he did not stop. He endured the severe pain in his body and struggled to stand up again.

His hands were clenched into fists, his nails dug deep into his palms, blood was dripping, but he seemed not to feel the pain. He just stared at Ji Tianyan, his eyes full of determination and resoluteness.

"Ji Tianyan, don't even think about hurting anyone again!" Ling Xiao's voice was hoarse and firm, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

Ji Tianyan looked at Ling Xiao, hatred in his eyes surged. He sneered and said, "Ling Xiao, you really want to die. I was planning to keep you alive to ask some questions, but now it seems that you are no longer useful, I can only kill you!" After saying that, he raised his hand again, ready to launch a more fierce attack.

However, at this critical moment, the Tianluo magic tool on Ling Xiao's body, which had given him endless power, seemed to have completed its mission and began to fall off slowly.

Each piece of debris was flashing with strange light. They circled and intertwined in the air, and finally turned into a stream of light, re-integrated into Ling Xiao's body, and disappeared without a trace.

With the return of the Tianluo magic weapon, the aura around Ling Xiao began to weaken sharply. The once heart-pounding feeling of power quickly dissipated, and was replaced by an indescribable weakness and fatigue.

At this moment, Ling Xiao seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He sat on the ground helplessly, his body trembling slightly, and even the strength to look up at Ji Tianyan was almost exhausted. His eyes were full of complex colors, with unwillingness, helplessness, and a deep reflection on his own strength.

He knew that even though he had reached unprecedented heights with the help of the power of the Tianluo magic tool, that was not his own power after all and could not be sustained for long.

"Ha! Hahahaha!" Ji Tianyan couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw this. His laughter was a mockery of Ling Xiao's current situation, as well as pride in his own victory. "External forces are external forces after all. No matter how you rely on them, they can never truly belong to you, and they can't be your solid backing to protect yourself." Ji Tianyan's words were like a sharp blade, piercing Ling Xiao's heart, causing him to feel a sharp pain.

As he spoke, he moved slightly and was about to launch an attack, but suddenly, his face changed abruptly, as if he had encountered something incredible.

His eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and the solemnity and vigilance that gathered in that instant revealed his inner uneasiness. An inexplicable chill quietly spread in the air, causing him to shiver involuntarily. It was a kind of fear that came from the depths of his soul, as if something terrifying was about to come.

Immediately afterwards, the ground began to tremble, and tiny cracks spread at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, dazzling holy patterns slowly emerged from the ground like ancient totems that had been awakened.

These holy patterns intertwined and entangled, eventually converging into a huge and complex array, covering a space of a hundred feet in radius. The power contained within it was heart-pounding.

As the formation took shape, waves of dark aura spread like a substance, carrying with them depression and despair, as if they could devour all light and vitality.

At the same time, a breath of death followed closely behind, cold and piercing, making people involuntarily think of the endless abyss and eternal silence. And between the two, there was also a hint of the breath of the underworld, which was ethereal, yet omnipresent, like a ghost, entwining every living being that sensed its existence.

This is the "Immortal Ghost Formation" that Ling Xiao had carefully arranged and had just mastered. The power of this formation is enough to scare any strong man, and the netherworld power contained in it can corrode the soul and make people slowly die in despair.

Recalling the previous events, Ling Xiao's attack seemed fierce, but in fact it was full of mysteries. He cleverly used the Daluotian Demon Shadow clone as a cover and quietly completed the arrangement of the formation.

At the same time, the assistance of the Heavenly Demon Formation Disk made this process even more powerful, making the entire formation process almost seamless, just like Ling Xiao himself had done it.

Although the air was inevitably filled with the aura of the formation, Ling Xiao cleverly used the Seven Killing Formation he had performed before as a cover and successfully attracted Ji Tianyan's attention elsewhere.

In addition, he continued to use attacks as bait, which further confused Ji Tianyan's judgment and made him completely unaware of the subtle changes taking place around him.
