But among the people present, the one they feared the most was not those two strange women with extraordinary strength, but rather that bearded man who seemed to have merged with heaven and earth.
This man was very tall, but his figure was slightly thin. But, this seemingly thin figure gave them a feeling of awe as if they were facing a towering mountain. Even Qiong Qi's entire life's worth of cultivation couldn't shake him.
In particular, that mysterious aura made them feel as if they were not facing a human, but rather an unparalleled peerless God or Devil.
It seemed as if this man possessed the terrifying ability to command heaven and earth with a flip of his hand and suppress all of them.
Thus, the 22 divine guards rushed over with monstrous aura, but at this moment, they were like rabbits encountering a tiger. They quickly restrained their aura and didn't even dare to breathe heavily. They lightly stepped back and turned around, wanting to slip away.
Although they knew that if they escaped, the shrine would definitely not let them off lightly, it was better than provoking an unparalleled existence and losing their lives here.
"Since you have come, don't leave."
Ding Ning's erratic voice quietly reverberated in the air, but it seemed as if it came from all directions, making people feel as if the person who spoke didn't exist in this space.
As if they had been hit by a body seal, the divine guards instantly stopped and stiffened on the spot. They complained incessantly in their heart, but they didn't dare to disobey.
One of them, a white-haired old man, immediately cupped his fists and bowed respectfully. He lied without even blushing or panting. "We happened to pass by this place and noticed that there was a phenomenon here, so we came down to check it out out of curiosity. We didn't expect that it was Senior who was meditating here and caused this phenomenon. We didn't mean to disturb you. Please forgive us, Senior. We'll leave now."
The corner of An Xi's mouth twitched when he heard what was said. If it wasn't for the heavy atmosphere here, he would have laughed out loud.
A white-haired old man who was old enough to be the great-grandfather of Ding Ning's great-grandfather was lying through his teeth, and he even respectfully called him senior. How could this scene be so funny?
Compared to her, Long Yi didn't feel that there was anything wrong. When all was said and done, in this shrine, the strong were respected. They didn't care about age, they only cared about strength. If their strength was inferior to others, it was also proper to address them as senior.
When Xiahou Weiyang and Ye Qingxuan saw this scene, they were shocked, but their eyes flashed with pride. After all, Ding Ning was a member of the National Warrior's Mansion, and he could make these experts, who were obviously more terrifying than the previous ones, bow their heads to him and call him senior, which made them feel deeply honored.
"Happened to pass by? You didn't mean to disturb me? "
Ding Ning's ethereal voice rang out, and there was a hint of playfulness in his tone.
The white-haired old man groaned in his heart. With an awkward smile on his face, he bowed respectfully and said, "Senior, please understand. It is indeed so."
"All of you are the same?"
Although Ding Ning's tone was calm, it brought enormous pressure to the divine guards. Other than the white-haired elder, all twenty-one divine guards lowered their heads in fear and answered, "Yes."
"It seems that the divine guards of the three Sacred Halls are quite leisurely and carefree."
Ding Ning said mockingly.
The expressions of the divine guards changed dramatically. They didn't expect that Ding Ning had already known their identities. It was ridiculous that they had lied through their teeth. It was really embarrassing that they were exposed.
However, divine guards were divine guards after all, and they had their own pride. Since their lies had been exposed, it seemed that there was no way they could get away with it.
Therefore, the white-haired elder's humble smile suddenly turned cold, and his hunched body suddenly straightened. He released a powerful aura and said in a deep voice, "Who are you? What do you want? "
Although the other divine guards didn't say anything, they also straightened their backs and moved quietly. Seven of them formed three battle formations as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They surrounded Ding Ning in a fan-shaped formation.
A strange look flashed in Ding Ning's eyes. He didn't expect that the Sons of God didn't know battle formations, but these divine guards had practiced battle formations.
He was no stranger to this battle formation. It was called the Seven Stars Battle Formation. It was arranged according to the positions of the Big Dipper, Dubhe, Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid. It could be used to attack and defend, and its power was extremely terrifying.
Could the Seven Stars Battle Formation formed by seven pseudo-pericelestial cultivators be able to release divine powers?
Ding Ning wasn't surprised, but happy instead. His fighting spirit kept rising, and he planned to figure out how powerful this pseudo-pericelestial Seven Stars Battle Formation could be.
After all, in his eyes, these people would be his subordinates in the future. If this battle formation was powerful, it would be a surprise for him in advance.
Of course, the most important thing was that he wanted to see how powerful he had become.
Unlike An Xi who thought that he might have broken through to the Semi-God Realm, he knew very well that he was still in the Demigod Realm.
This was because after he merged with the world, he could clearly feel the cultivation barrier. This barrier was very fragile, so fragile that he could break through it at any time if he wanted to.
However, he didn't choose to break through, not because of the battle of luck, nor because he didn't want to break through, but because he didn't dare to.
The human world was too fragile. Just like what he knew before, it was currently in the weakest stage of self-dormancy, undergoing a perfect evolution. That was why it would instinctively protect itself and set up the Shackles of Heaven and Earth to prevent an overly powerful force from destroying the balance of the world and causing the order of heaven and earth to collapse.
As for him, a Demigod in the extreme realm, the power he would have when he broke through to the Semi-God Realm was too terrifying. If he forcefully broke through, the order of heaven and earth would definitely collapse instantly, and the entire human world would be destroyed.
'It's lonely at the top,' Ding Ning thought to himself.
Earth was his home, with his parents, relatives, and friends. How could he destroy it?
Therefore, if he wanted to break through to the Semi-God Realm, he had to find a way to go to other realms. Otherwise, he would have to spend countless years waiting for the day when the Heavenly Dao finished its self-evolution. Only then would it be able to withstand the power of his breakthrough.
However, this wasn't without any benefits. The Heavenly Dao that was in self-dormancy could completely sense his kindness. In return, the Heavenly Dao granted him the ability to use the laws of heaven and earth at will.
Although he was still a Demigod, he could use the power of the laws of heaven and earth at will without causing a destructive disaster.
In other words, as a Demigod, he was a guardian recognized by the Heavenly Dao, and also the maintainer of the human world's order. He could use divine abilities at will, and he had the power of a real Semi-God Realm expert.
Therefore, at this moment, even if Ding Ning were to face three pseudo Semi-God Realm experts in the Seven Star Battle Formation, he wouldn't feel the slightest bit afraid.
"Since you insist on being so aggressive, then let's fight."
Seeing that the divine guards had already formed the battle formation, the white-haired elder immediately became courageous. He didn't call Ding Ning senior anymore, and arrogantly issued a challenge.
"Very well, I was just about to experience the power of the Seven Star Battle Formation."
Ding Ning immediately revealed the name of the battle formation, causing the white-haired elder's heart to tremble. He looked at Ding Ning in shock and doubt, and comforted himself in his heart. So what if he knew the name of the battle formation? This was three Seven Star Battle Formations, and their power could be stacked. It was not something that an ordinary Seven Star Battle Formation could compare to.
Most importantly, at this moment, Ding Ning had already broken away from the terrifying state of merging with heaven and earth, greatly reducing the fear in his heart. He immediately sneered and said, "I believe you won't be disappointed."
"Wait a moment."
The divine guards stepped on the Seven Star Battle Formation, and their terrifying power suddenly skyrocketed. Just as they were about to take the initiative to attack, Ding Ning suddenly shouted.
The white-haired elder only thought that Ding Ning regretted after sensing the power of the Seven Star Battle Formation. He immediately became courageous and said with a face full of ridicule, "What? Are you afraid?
Unfortunately, it's too late. "
"Afraid?"
Ding Ning was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but laugh. "Sorry, you think too much. I just feel that it's too unfair for you to bully me in numbers, and you've formed a battle formation without any stakes."
The white-haired elder's eyes narrowed, and he increasingly felt that Ding Ning was timid. He said with a faint smile, "Kid, what kind of stakes do you think are needed to make it fair?"
The corner of Ding Ning's mouth twitched. This old thing really knew how to bend the rudder with the wind.
Previously, he had been addressing him as' Senior ', or at least' Sir '. But now, he had even addressed him as' Brat '.' Damn it, you old thing, just you wait. When you become my subordinate, see how I deal with you. '
He secretly bore a grudge in his heart, but his expression did not change. "Bet with our lives."
"Bet with our lives?"
The divine guards were shocked when they heard this. Their faces changed dramatically, and they began to mutter in their hearts.
The white-haired elder's pupils shrank slightly, and he stared at Ding Ning. Seeing that the two words "bet with our lives" did not come out of his mouth, he subconsciously became worried. Could it be that this kid had the confidence to defeat the Seven Star Battle Formation and dared to propose a bet with his life?
How could Ding Ning not know what he was thinking? He said leisurely, "What? You don't dare? "
An Xi secretly curled her lips. It would be strange if such a clumsy provocation worked.
But the next moment, she was stunned to hear the white-haired elder gnash his teeth and say, "Why wouldn't I dare? Then let's begin."
An Xi's face was lifeless. She did not know what was wrong with this white-haired elder. He could not even see through such a simple provocation.
Long Yi seemed to see through her confusion, and explained softly, "It's not that he can't take the provocation, but he knows very well that from the moment they appeared here, there is no way out. Even if he does not agree, Ding Ning will not let them go. Betting with our lives is just putting things on the table."
An Xi finally understood. It seemed that it was true. The white-haired elder was just scared by the words "betting with his life". After he understood the situation, he could only agree. After all, they were betting with their lives. The winner lived, and the loser died.
But what she did not understand was that although Ding Ning's previous state was very similar to breaking through to the Demigod stage, she could see that he was still in the Demigod stage.
Even if he had the strength of a peerless Demigod, his opponents were 22 Pericelestial level experts. Where did he get the confidence to bet with them with his life?
Thinking like this, she suddenly felt somewhat inexplicable worry in her heart. She was worried for Ding Ning. She could not understand this kind of emotion. That guy was a hoodlum, so why would she worry for him?
Right, favor. It must be because that guy owed her a favor and had not returned it, so she was worried for him subconsciously.
An Xi forcefully found a reasonable excuse for himself, and immediately felt at ease. He even secretly clenched his fists, and prepared to save him at any time. The reason was just and honorable. He was his creditor, and before he paid back the favor, he naturally couldn't watch him die.
Just like her, a hint of worry flashed through Long Yi's beautiful eyes. In her heart, she blamed Ding Ning for being too arrogant. He actually wanted to contend against the battle formation formed by 22 pericelestial powerhouses by himself. Wasn't this courting death?
Although she knew that Ding Ning was very strong, but having lost the memory of the chaotic world, she did not think that Ding Ning could really defeat the 22 divine guards. One should know that although these divine guards were only Pseudo Pericelestial, once they formed a battle formation, they could use magical powers.
This meant that Ding Ning would have to face the situation equivalent to three real Pericelestial level experts. She was not optimistic about him at all.
