Chapter 1162: Chapter 1162: Are You Underestimating Me?

Fierce Lion and the others looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.

"Should we try to persuade the Supreme Elders?"

"How to persuade? Your Supreme Elder has clearly gone mad with rage!"

"That’s for sure; being slapped in the face like that, I’d definitely go mad too."

Before, they had thought the Supreme Elder merely wanted to suppress Ning Fan, and had not taken it to heart.

For them, if Ning Fan lost, that would be perfect for them to have him concoct elixirs for them later.

If Ning Fan won, they would just switch sides—after all, the accounting of the Five Great Sects wouldn’t come down on their heads; it would mean nothing more than a bow of their heads.

But now, seeing the Fenyue Sect’s Supreme Elder about to commit murder, they couldn’t help but start to panic.

If Ning Fan died, they would never get to enjoy those high-quality elixirs again!

Ning Fan had previously concocted elixirs without keeping a single one, giving them all away to win people over.

After trying them personally, the Sect Masters unanimously gave extremely high praise.

Even the most expensive elixirs on the market from Kunlun, claimed to be carefully concocted by the top alchemists of the Five Great Sects, were not of a better quality than the elixirs made by Ning Fan.

However, now watching the angry face of the Fenyue Sect’s Supreme Elder, they were somewhat afraid to go forward and dissuade him.

What if the Supreme Elder, caught up in the killing, took them down too?

As they hesitated, the Fenyue Sect’s Supreme Elder had already completed the activation of the formation.

"Boy! Feel the pain in my formation!"

As he roared, the last stream of Spiritual Power was injected into the formation.

The entire formation, like the final gear being fitted into place, began to operate.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Dozens of columns of fire burst from the crevices in the earth, shooting straight into the sky, the wild flames spreading instantly.

The temperature inside the formation soared abruptly, and the air around began to twist.

"Such fierce flames!"

Ning Fan squinted his eyes, observing the continuously erupting columns of fire around him, feeling waves of scorching heat on his body.

With his current cultivation, he had long been able to be impervious to the heat and cold, but the flames within this formation still made him feel intense heat, showing the intensity of the flames.

However, just this level of temperature, he was still able to resist.

"If these are your only tricks, then I’m afraid this fire formation still has no effect on me," Ning Fan said with a faint smile.

Outside the formation, the Fenyue Sect’s Supreme Elder sneered, "Oh? Then why don’t you give it a try?"

As his voice entered the formation, Ning Fan didn’t hesitate at all and directly slapped towards one of the fire columns.

"Hong!"

The robust Spiritual Power surged from his palm and instantly shattered the fire column.

However, to his surprise, after the fire column was shattered, it did not dissipate; instead, it swirled around in the air and reassembled.

Ning Fan narrowed his eyes, "The same properties as the Ice Rain Formation?"

He launched several more strikes and found that these fire columns seemed unaffected by his Spiritual Power.

Or rather, striking the fire columns with Spiritual Power didn’t seem to cause any effective damage.

This was incomprehensible to Ning Fan.

In his perception, although the temperature of these fire columns was intense and the fire within them was quite peculiar, it wasn’t strong enough to completely ignore Spiritual Power.

"Boom!"

While he was contemplating, a fire column suddenly changed direction and violently smashed down towards him.

Ning Fan stamped his feet forcefully and his whole body shot back, narrowly dodging the attack from the fire column.

"Crack!"

The ground before him, as if it were melted ice, instantly developed a large hole.

Before Ning Fan could react, other fire columns also attacked from all directions, like spears engulfing the space he could dodge into.

"You think you can deal with me this way? Aren’t you underestimating me too much?"

Ning Fan’s palms moved together, and the robust Spiritual Power surged out, completely shattering the incoming fire columns.

But immediately afterward, dozens of fire columns condensed out and launched an attack on Ning Fan, just like before.

As time passed, Ning Fan discovered the problem.

It wasn’t that his Spiritual Power wasn’t strong enough, but that these flames could actually burn his Spiritual Power!

The Spiritual Power he had previously launched was burnt by a third the moment it came into contact with these fire columns.

The remaining two-thirds, after shattering the fire columns, was burnt by half again.

The remaining third of Spiritual Power was not enough to destroy these fire columns, which was why, no matter how Ning Fan attacked, the fire columns remained.

"Since I can’t extinguish you this way, I will destroy you with even stronger power!"

Ning Fan took a deep breath, Spiritual Power surged in his Dantian, and gushed from his palms, converging into countless sword beams in front of him.

These sword beams crisscrossed, each formed from condensed and pure Spiritual Power.

If he thought the opponent was too difficult to match, it was only because his own power wasn’t strong enough!

"Slash!"

Ning Fan yelled, his right hand forming a blade, and slashed forward.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Countless sword beams whistled out, transforming into rivers of swords, facing the incoming fire columns.

"Boom boom boom!"

The two collided, instantly producing a deafening roar.

The flames and Spiritual Power burst continuously, and the rising waves of air were like a boiling sea of clouds!
