Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 1478 - 1515: Regret

The crowd heard the cultivator's words and couldn't help but all look towards Ding Fan. Obviously, only Ding Fan was not one of the Thirty-Six Caves, so at this moment, many cultivators began to suspect Ding Fan, casting very suspicious glances at him, secretly speculating in their hearts.

At this moment, Long Ren saw this scene and couldn't help but turn around angrily and scolded:

"All of you fuck off, that's my big brother! Are you questioning me now?"

The crowd heard Long Ren's words and was stunned, not daring to continue looking at Ding Fan. They were very shocked in their hearts. They didn't expect the Lake Master also had someone he called big brother, but if the other party really was the Lake Master's big brother, they would no longer doubt him. After all, no matter who leaked the location of the Thirty-Six Caves gathering this time, it wouldn't be the Lake Master.

The crowd obviously trusted the Lake Master a lot. Subsequently, they didn't say anything more, and many cultivators began to continue bombarding the nearby formation. Being trapped here indeed felt awful, even though they were Distraction Stage or Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivators. However, in front of the powerful formation, they were still quite insignificant.

Rumble...

Suddenly, the whole formation resounded with thunder, a series of Mysterious Thunder suddenly crashing down from above the canyon with an incredibly intimidating momentum.

The scene shocked everyone, and they all gathered their True Qi to defend against the Mysterious Thunder from the sky. For a while, many cultivators were struck by the Mysterious Thunder. Some managed to withstand it, though looking disheveled and furious, cursing repeatedly. Some cultivators, despite their strong cultivation, clearly couldn't hold off the Mysterious Thunder for long. The protective films around them grew thinner, barely able to withstand another strike.

A bitter feeling spread through the crowd, though they were all Distraction Stage cultivators, and some were even at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. However, it was clear that the Mysterious Thunder was no simple existence, and the crowd realized that this wasn't just an Imprisonment Array Formation; it was accompanied by a powerful Mysterious Thunder Killing Formation.

At this moment, Ding Fan could not help but release his Divine Vigor to defend against the Mysterious Thunder. Obviously, this Mysterious Thunder Killing Formation was not ordinary, the strikes were extremely dense, and each Mysterious Thunder was powerful, not something an average cultivator could handle. Even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator would struggle to defend against a single attack.

Ding Fan was clearly having a hard time. Although his strength could handle Distraction Stage cultivators, his cultivation was only equivalent to Nascent Soul Mid Stage. Despite this, Ding Fan had already withstood two Mysterious Thunder attacks. Long Ren, seeing Ding Fan's predicament, couldn't help but feel astonished at his big brother's defensive capabilities.

Ding Fan had released all of his Divine Vigor, coupled with the Golden Silk Protective Clothing on him, clearly elevating his defensive power beyond the Nascent Soul Stage level. Even compared to Distraction Mid Stage cultivators, Ding Fan's defense was nearly on par.

At this moment, Long Ren couldn't help but extend his arm, forming a protective circle, surrounding Ding Fan. Ding Fan was shocked to see this, as the Mysterious Thunder hitting the protective circle around them only made it shake slightly, proving the circle could withstand several more Mysterious Thunders without issue.

Ding Fan was surprised, not expecting his younger brother's defensive capabilities to be not much worse than his own or even better.

The Mysterious Thunders continued to strike down relentlessly, giving no chance for any counterattack. The cultivators in the canyon were now bedraggled; though no one had fallen yet, their energy was significantly depleted, faces full of bitterness. Clearly, if things continued like this, everyone might perish here, as the Mysterious Thunder was no ordinary existence.

Soon, Long Ren's protective circle was about to fail, and then Elder Cai, enveloped by thick True Qi, extended protection over Ding Fan and Long Ren. Elder Cai weakly said to Long Ren:

"Young Master, conserve your strength; you must not fall..."

Clearly, Elder Cai's voice was weak, but his True Qi shield was still formidable. The Mysterious Thunder hitting it barely made it shake.

However, both Ding Fan and Long Ren knew continuing this way would be impossible for even Elder Cai to sustain three people for long. After all, Elder Cai was supporting three!

The crowd was filled with bitterness, and Ding Fan was anxious, scanning every corner of the formation with his Divine Sense, not missing any potential array eye location. But his search was futile, making him more anxious, as even if they could hold out, the Thirty-Six Cave Lords seemed unable to endure much longer.

Knowing death awaited if they couldn't hold on!

Suddenly, Ding Fan recalled something—he had a Pure Thunder Pill. Ding Fan knew it was a pure natural entity, much more potent than ordinary Mysterious Thunder. Quickly, he released the Pure Thunder Pill, which floated over them, and extraordinary phenomena began.

Once the Pure Thunder Pill appeared, it instantly attracted many Mysterious Thunders. Nearly a third of the formation's Mysterious Thunders stopped striking the cultivators below, instead being absorbed by Ding Fan's Pure Thunder Pill. Around the Pure Thunder Pill, countless small thunder snakes gathered, constantly drilling into it...

Seeing the Pure Thunder Pill above Ding Fan, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Clearly, with Ding Fan's Pure Thunder Pill absorbing nearly a third of the Mysterious Thunder, they could finally relax a bit...

Meanwhile, everyone was astounded. They hadn't expected the so-called big brother of the Lake Master to have such heaven-defying means. Without his presence, who knew how many Distraction Stage cultivators would have fallen? Everyone couldn't help but look at Ding Fan gratefully...

"The Thirty-Six Caves' skills are indeed extraordinary, to survive so long in my Mysterious Thunder Formation!"

Suddenly, a loud, somewhat ancient voice echoed through the canyon. An Elder in Wild Wolf Gang attire appeared atop a rock, grinning broadly.

After the elder appeared, the surroundings of the entire gorge were suddenly filled with numerous disciples of the Wild Wolf Gang. Each was wearing armor and holding various styles of weapons, their faces showing expressions of smug satisfaction while their eyes cautiously watched the cultivators from the 36 Holes in the array below the gorge.

When the cultivators from the 36 Holes saw the appearance of the Wild Wolf Gang elder, some couldn't help but feel furious, while others felt a trace of pride. Upon seeing the elder, those feeling more victorious among the cultivators couldn't help but shout loudly:

"Elder Cai, I'm a friend of the Wild Wolf Gang! Let me out first, and then clean up this group!"

"Yes, I also absolutely obey the Wild Wolf Gang, let me out first, and then we'll talk..."

"Elder Cai, I'm here; I've decided to agree with the Wild Wolf Gang and cut ties with the 36 Holes!"

...

At this time, many cultivators from the 36 Holes, seeing those pleading for mercy to the elder, couldn't help but feel furious. They immediately began cursing:

"Traitors! You disgrace the face of the 36 Holes!"

"Pah! Traitors..."

...

For a while, although everyone felt deeply angry and cursed, obviously those in the array were already too exhausted to fight. After all, with that spirit, it was better to think about how to escape from this formation and how to defend against the Mysterious Thunder attacks within this array...

At this moment, the elder from the Wild Wolf Gang standing on the rock heard the pleas for mercy from those cultivators, and couldn't help but laugh loudly, then said with disdain:

"Haha, do you think you can get out? Now you want to submit to the Wild Wolf Gang? Hahaha... Truly laughable, even the most mysterious and powerful 36 Holes in this Cultivation World turn out to be nothing more than this... A bunch of foolish people... Hahaha... I never expected the Wild Wolf Gang to take down all the members of the 36 Holes so easily, it was incredibly easy! A bunch of foolish ones!"

The cultivators from the 36 Holes within the formation heard the words of the elder from the Wild Wolf Gang and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. Although the elder was not weak, relying on fair means, he was no match for the 36 Holes. Clearly, the 36 Holes could easily kill the opponent. But now, everyone was obviously trapped in this formation, with no ability to attack whatsoever, and couldn't help but feel very angry.

At this point, the first to lose patience was the cultivator whose heart harbored a guilty conscience. This cultivator was the one who had leaked secrets to the Wild Wolf Gang. Earlier, the most fervent one begging for mercy was this middle-aged man, but he never expected the elder of the Wild Wolf Gang to say such words, and couldn't help but feel deep regret, immediately cursing aloud.

"You despicable villain! Person without integrity! Even if the cultivators of the 36 Holes turn into ghosts, we won't spare the Wild Wolf Gang!"

...

"Bastard! The elder's brain must be flooded to want to join the Wild Wolf Gang!"

"Worse than beasts!"

...

In an instant, the cultivators who initially wanted to join the Wild Wolf Gang couldn't help but feel a pang of regret, never expecting the Wild Wolf Gang to be such shameless people who don't keep promises!

Many 36 Holes cultivators couldn't help but sincerely apologize to their fellow cultivators around them:

"I'm sorry, brothers! We were blind to believe in those Wild Wolf Gang cultivators. In the next life, I'll be your beast of burden!"

"Count me in! I never thought a moment's folly would not only harm myself but also ruin the lifetime reputation of the 36 Holes!"

"I'm ashamed..."

...

The cultivators from the 36 Holes who previously wanted to pledge allegiance to the Wild Wolf Gang couldn't help but express their sincere apologies.
