Xu Chen sensed the locations of the ninety-nine sword rays and froze on the spot like a block of wood.
On the other side, Mu Shuijing and Ku Wu were stunned too. Their expressions were the same as Xu Chen's.
As for the others, they were confused as they had no idea what was going on.
Apart from Xu Chen, Mu Shuijing, and Ku Wu, no one else could sense the presence of the Formation Force.
Even the other Divine Formation Masters had no idea what the ninety-nine sword rays meant due to their low cultivation levels.
"Nie Tian, what's going on?" Qin Zhengyue collected his thoughts and asked in a low voice as he approached Nie Tian.
Nie Tian smiled and said, "Sir Adjudicator, I've sensed that there are ninety-nine fake Formation Eyes in this Ice Valley. I'm just using the sword rays to mark out the locations of the fake Formation Eyes."
"This …" Qin Zhengyue was stunned for a moment before he asked in astonishment, "You're saying that the locations of the sword rays are fake Formation Eyes?"
"Yes." With a faint smile, Nie Tian nodded and said, "In a grand spell formation, false spell formation eyes are usually used to hide the real formation eyes, and the killing intent in the false spell formation eyes is also the strongest."
"I see." Qin Zhengyue could not help but gasp after understanding the situation. If he was the one who attacked the fake Formation Eyes, he would be the one who died.
Following this, he narrowed his eyes and asked Nie Tian, "Mr. Nie, there are so many fake Formation Eyes in this Ice Valley. Where are the real Formation Eyes?"
"I'm looking for them." Nie Tian nodded slightly.
Qin Zhengyue immediately nodded and felt much more at ease.
Since Nie Tian was able to accurately locate the ninety-nine fake Formation Eyes, it should not be difficult for him to locate the real Formation Eyes.
At this moment, everyone's gazes were focused on Nie Tian, their eyes surging with blazing light.
Now that everyone had completely lost confidence in Xu Chen, the only person who could save them was Nie Tian.
"Master!" At that instant, a cry could be heard all of a sudden. Following this, a figure dashed toward them.
"Hmm?" Everyone was stunned, and their gazes couldn't help but tremble violently when they saw that the person that charged over was actually Xu Chen.
When Nie Tian saw Xu Chen rushing towards him, his face sank slightly.
Plop! Just as everyone was guessing what Xu Chen was going to do, he actually dropped to his knees and knelt before Nie Tian.
When the crowd saw this, their expressions froze, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
Who would have thought that the arrogant and complacent Xu Chen would actually kneel before Nie Tian in front of so many people!
"Xu Chen, what are you doing?" Nie Tian's eyes focused slightly as he asked with a faint smile.
"Grandmaster Nie Tian, your attainments in the art of array formations are unparalleled in both ancient and modern times. Xu Chen admires you!" Xu Chen said in a loud voice. He was actually kowtowing to Nie Tian.
The corner of Nie Tian's mouth twitched. He was amused by the scene before him.
This Xu Chen wanted nothing more than to kill him just now, but now he was actually kneeling and kowtowing. This change in attitude was too exaggerated.
Moreover, not only was Xu Chen unparalleled when it came to arrogance, but his flattery skills were absolutely top-notch.
Xu Chen saw that Nie Tian didn't say anything and actually kept kowtowing on the icy ground. The icy ground kept making banging sounds, and his forehead was red and swollen.
Eyebrows furrowed, Nie Tian finally opened his mouth and asked coldly, "Xu Chen, do you admit defeat?"
"Xu Chen is willing to admit defeat, and I'm sincerely convinced!" Xu Chen raised his head to look at Nie Tian and said solemnly, "Grandmaster Nie Tian can punish me however you want to!"
"Oh?" Nie Tian laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
Xu Chen felt the coldness in Nie Tian's eyes and could not help but stiffen. Then, he said, "It's Xu Chen's honor to be able to die in the hands of Grandmaster Nie Tian."
Everyone watched from the side, and countless divine beasts ran wild in their hearts. Their faces were full of curses.
No one had expected Xu Chen to do such a thing.
"Xu Chen, stand up." Nie Tian smiled faintly and said, "Your life is still useful, so I'll keep it for now."
"Thank you, Grandmaster Nie Tian!" Xu Chen's eyes trembled, and then he stood up and retreated to Nie Tian's side. He bowed deeply and was very respectful.
He was completely flabbergasted by the ninety-nine fake spell cores that Nie Tian had found.
At that moment, he already knew that he was definitely no match for Nie Tian.
He finally understood that Mu Shuijing's request to become Nie Tian's disciple was not a joke. He had truly become Mu Shuijing's disciple.
He was even very envious that Mu Shuijing could become Nie Tian's disciple.
Then, the crowd slowly quietened down.
Nie Tian began to search for the real array cores.
As time passed, the coldness in the air became more and more intense.
Nie Tian felt a bone-piercing coldness that made him feel oppressed.
Many cultivators could not withstand the invasion of the coldness and could only sit down and rely on the protection of their companions to barely catch their breaths.
However, as the coldness in the air intensified, everyone's expressions became more and more terrible.
At this rate, it would not be long before the Pseudo Sacred cultivators' lives were threatened.
"Ah! I can't take it anymore! " At that moment, a roar suddenly sounded. A cultivator actually soared into the sky and flew toward the sky.
Everyone suddenly raised their heads, their eyes trembling, and their faces pale.
That cultivator had just approached a frost vortex when his body froze for a moment and was sealed in ice. He then fell and turned into ice shards when he hit the ground.
The horrifying scene caused everyone's expressions to stiffen. Their eyes were filled with fear.
The coldness in the frost vortex was too terrifying. Even a high-level Pseudo Sacred cultivator would not be able to withstand it.
Moreover, there were many frost vortexes. Even an expert like Kouyo Oniguchi would die instantly if he was invaded by the coldness in the frost vortexes.
Shocked, the crowd once again fixed their eyes on Nie Tian.
"Found it!" At that moment, Nie Tian's eyes lit up and he shouted in surprise.
Upon hearing Nie Tian's voice, everyone's eyes instantly turned red and filled with burning desire as they looked at him.
"The array cores are in these two places!" Nie Tian's lips curled up into a faint smile as he pointed to two ice walls not far away.
The killing formation in the ice valley was not only a formation within a formation, but also a killing formation with two array cores.
Even Fat Cat and Ghost Emperor took a long time to set up such a complicated killing formation.
Nie Tian knew that the crowd could not hold on any longer. He looked at Kouyo Oniguchi and Li Jin and said, "Deans, let's do it."
Among the crowd, these two were the strongest. It would be the safest for them to make a move.
Kouyo Oniguchi and Li Jin exchanged glances before turning to look at Nie Tian at the same time. They were obviously doubtful.
They had seen with their own eyes what happened to the cultivator from the Mu Family who broke the formation. If Nie Tian was wrong about the array cores, wouldn't they both die a horrible death?
In particular, Kouyo Oniguchi was worried that Nie Tian would use the killing formation to avenge Nie Fenghua.
"Kouyo Oniguchi, your life belongs to my father. I won't kill you," Nie Tian looked at Kouyo Oniguchi and said.
Kouyo Oniguchi was stunned for a moment before he nodded his head.
He believed that Nie Tian would not trick him.
Li Jin hesitated for a moment before he nodded his head.
The crowd dispersed, while Kouyo Oniguchi and Li Jin prepared to make their moves.
"Boom!" However, right at this moment, a terrifying explosion suddenly rang out in the sky.
The crowd raised their heads and saw an icy vortex exploding, as if it had been torn apart by something terrifying.
BANG! In the next instant, the rift trembled as a giant icy hand appeared and grabbed at the icy vortex.
