Chapter 375: Total Victory

As it turned out, he saw with his own eyes that the dispatched Wind Tribulation Immortals were trapped in the Formation created by the Seven Dragon True Immortals.

Within that Formation, the starry light shined brilliantly, resembling chains; it was the Seven Star Soul Lock Formation.

Although this Formation was a reconciliation gift from the Bai family to Fang Lie, the Jin family had also participated in its creation.

This meant that the treasures they had forged were ultimately used against themselves. The five Wind Tribulation Immortals were all direct descendants of the Jin family, outstanding talents with hopes of advancing to Fire Tribulation Immortals!

Now, however, they were being attacked by the Seven Dragon True Immortals. Each of them was just as formidable, if not more so, and with the advantage of numbers and the Formation, defeating them was a simple task.

In less than fifteen minutes, the five Wind Tribulation Immortals were all locked by the starry chains, becoming prisoners!

The treasure they had forged for themselves disrupted their plans, leaving the leader of the Jin family extremely frustrated. In his heart, he was nearly cursing the Bai family to death.

When they assured him that these formation flags would not be used against the Jin family, now they had ended up in the hands of their enemies. What kind of situation was this?

Unfortunately, it was too late; no matter how distressed the Jin family leader was, it was of no help now. He himself was in a precarious state, as the Great Earth General was a direct counter to him. The terrifying Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light was about to break through the defenses, hitting the ship’s hull.

Once the Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light contaminated the treasure ship’s body, it would cause permanent damage to his life-bound treasure ship, something he could never accept.

In utter desperation, the Jin family leader dared not continue fighting. He had to fake an attack and turn to escape back to the pass.

The Great Earth General did not pursue him but instead obeyed Fang Lie’s orders, returning to the Earth’s Magnetic Force Warship to intensify the attack on the opposing Formation.

While they fought fiercely, Mr. Suan Mei was not idle but was identifying and destroying the nodes of the Formation one by one.

A giant Formation like this had thousands of channels drawing in Spiritual Energy from the outside; destroying one node merely cut off one pathway, so the effect was minimal.

However, as too many nodes were destroyed, the impact began to amplify.

After ten nodes were destroyed, the power of the protective array around the pass decreased by one percent, unable to maintain its balance, and could only gradually shrink its protective area to resist the overwhelming Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light.

This trend continued to escalate. As long as Mr. Suan Mei persisted, within a few hours, thirty percent of the nodes would be destroyed, and then the Formation would completely collapse.

The leader of the Jin family and his clansmen were not fools; they all realized the seriousness of the consequences. Without the Formation, perhaps the Fire Tribulation Immortal could escape, but the rest would surely die!

Here were hundreds of Jin family members and thousands of recruited disciples; if they all perished, the Jin family would suffer tremendous losses.

The leader of the Jin family immediately realized they could not just wait idly. Yet, he couldn’t stop Fang Lie, so he shouted, "Fang Lie, they say one should leave a way out for others; wouldn’t you prefer a future where we can meet again? Do you truly want to risk a battle with the thousands of cultivators in the Jin family?"

"Only thousands? VIP Sir, I really don’t care!" Fang Lie sneered. "Don’t think that just because you’re a mere Fire Tribulation Immortal, or even if your Family Head, the Thunder Tribulation Immortal, comes, I won’t make you aware of your limitations today!"

"How infuriating! Can’t you show a bit of loyalty to kinship?" the leader of the Jin family said in exasperation.

"Haha~" Fang Lie couldn’t help but laugh heartily. "You dare talk to me about kinship? You’ve occupied my estate, and even slaughtered more than half of my guards. Have you ever shown kinship?"

"We acknowledge our mistakes and are willing to accept Sect punishment, but you went straight for killing witnesses!" the Elder said angrily.

"It was you who struck first!" Fang Lie replied with a smile. "In that case, no matter if I kill you, it would just be self-defense!"

"Despicable!" the Elder stomped his foot in frustration. He was filled with regret; if only he had stopped his son sooner, he wouldn’t have been killed by Fang Lie.

If he could have pushed past the pain of losing a child and proactively attacked, Fang Lie would have had no excuse to wage war. Now he was left at a loss, suffering great losses and losing his noble reputation. At this point, even if everyone was wiped out, he wouldn’t find any sympathy!

While they were bickering, Mr. Suan Mei didn’t stop, continuously destroying the nodes of the Formation: one hundred, two hundred.

After two hours, the number of destroyed nodes had approached three hundred, significantly reducing the power of the protective array by thirty percent. It could no longer withstand the ferocious assault of the Earth’s Magnetic Force Warship.

The five-colored Divine Light shield was not only retreating under the intense bombardment of dozens of Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light tentacles, but it also began to crack and its color faded. It felt as though it was on the brink of collapse, clearly on the verge of breaking down.

Finally, the leader of the Jin family relinquished all hope and shouted, "Everyone, flee for your lives!"

After speaking, he suddenly urged the Formation, releasing the last wave of intense Divine Light, temporarily driving back the Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light.

Then, seizing this good opportunity, he took the lead and escaped into the distance through the gap.

As for the other Cultivators, they also quickly dashed out, fleeing in all directions, resembling a flock of scattering birds and beasts!

Seeing this, Fang Lie let out a cold laugh and said, "Leave no survivors!"

With that, he boldly led the Great Earth General, piloting the earth’s magnetic force ship, chasing after the enemy’s Leader as they sped away.

However, even though Fang Lie had left, his orders remained in effect. The Seven Dragon True Immortals, working together with million magnetic puppets, were launching a pursuit against the remaining Cultivators!

Without the control of the earth’s magnetic force ship, the million magnetic puppet army quickly scattered, forming thousands of small teams to hunt down the fleeing low-rank Cultivators.

The Seven Dragon True Immortals controlled the Seven Star Soul Lock Formation, specially capturing those with strength above the Wind Tribulation Immortal.

With years of collaboration and the assistance of the Seven Star Soul Lock Formation, they were even more powerful, easily dealing with several Wind Tribulation Immortals.

At this moment, the million magnetic puppet army also revealed a terrifying side.

Do not be fooled by their bulky appearance; they are not clumsy at all. In fact, while they may not be particularly agile, they are incredibly fast.

The scattered earth’s magnetic force puppet teams moved with great order, connected by the earth’s magnetic force. With the support of the Great Earth’s magnetic force, their speed was astonishing, rivaling that of average Wind Tribulation Immortals.

What is even more astonishing is that they can continuously draw power from the earth for replenishment, making them almost tireless as long as they are on the ground.

Thus, in terms of endurance, average Wind Tribulation Immortals stand no chance. Even if they are slightly faster, they will eventually be caught.

In this situation, any Cultivator targeted by them had almost no chance of escape.

Because high-rank Cultivators are already scarce, especially Wind Tribulation Immortals, of which there are only a few dozen, most have been handled by the Seven Dragon True Immortals. The rest could not escape the pursuit of the earth’s magnetic force puppet teams and ultimately had to surrender willingly.

Of course, some fearless characters, upon realizing they could not escape, dared to fight back. Their fate was far more tragic; the earth’s magnetic force puppets unleashed an unending stream of Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light, reducing them to pulp, resulting in their demise!

In the end, in just half an hour, the battle on the frontline concluded. Thousands of Jin Family members and followers were either killed or fled, leaving only a fraction captured alive.

At this time, Fang Lie had only just caught up to the Fire Tribulation Immortal of the Jin Family.

One must say, this stubborn old man was truly skilled at escaping; not only was his teleportation light incredibly fast, but he also used several tricks to hide his fleeing direction.

Unfortunately, he was seen through by the cunning Mr. Suan Mei.

With Mr. Suan Mei’s assistance, Fang Lie, relying on the earth’s magnetic force ship’s top speed, ultimately managed to block this old man.

"I’ll fight you!" Knowing that Fang Lie hated him deeply, and with a personal grudge against him, the old man chose not to flee anymore and instead launched a counterattack! Piloting his life-bound treasure ship, he barreled fiercely towards the earth’s magnetic force ship.

However, sadly, courage does not equal strength. Although the old man showed commendable bravery, the earth’s magnetic force ship was incredibly powerful. Dozens of tentacles of Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light reached out and easily captured this small fish.

Then, without a trace of mercy, Fang Lie ruthlessly ordered the Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force to assault the old man’s life-bound treasure ship.

The Jin Family is renowned for their unique techniques from the Mo Sect, excelling at transforming ancient warships into life-bound treasures, fully unleashing the terrifying power of those ships.

But in that sense, they are many times stronger than the Fang Family’s mechanical cannons.

However, even though they are strong, there are limitations. Life-bound treasures like ships are not only challenging to upgrade but also hard to repair when damaged.

This life-bound golden ship had reached the top-grade of the Seventh rank, incredibly sturdy, capable of easily punching holes through mountains, yet against Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light, it met its nemesis.

Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light is particularly effective against metal element power. Under Fang Lie’s orders, it began to corrode the golden ship’s body, causing the metal to lose its Yin-Yang essence, as if it had been battered by the winds of time for hundreds of thousands of years, becoming decayed.

The once shining, majestic golden ship, gradually transformed into a dilapidated, rotten ghost ship under the assault of Divine Earth’s Magnetic Force Light!

With the Divine Light continuously invading, if the entire warship were to be corroded away, not only would this treasure ship be doomed, but the person connected to it would also be ruined. Losing a life-bound treasure ship that had been in cultivation for over a thousand years would mean no chance of recovery.

Finally, the old man grew terrified. Forgetting about his dignity, he pleaded with Fang Lie. However, Fang Lie paid him no mind, determined to crush him!

As the Jin Family’s few remaining Fire Tribulation Immortals were about to suffer another loss, a panicked voice suddenly called out from a distance, "Fang Lie, stop now!"
