Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food. For Ancient Warriors, cultivation resources such as spiritual treasures, elixirs, and techniques were more attractive than money and beautiful women.
In a world where the strong were respected, one's own strength was the foundation of one's survival. Moreover, this was an extremely rare treasure that could increase one's combat ability. It was enough for them to risk their lives for it.
Sensing the restlessness of the people present, Ding Ning's expression immediately froze. This Ice Demon was indeed shameless. He had actually attributed his ability to fight beyond his level to the treasure. This was to arouse the greed of the others to surround and attack him. This feeling of being surrounded by a pack of wolves made him very unhappy.
This was a very clumsy trick full of loopholes. However, such a clumsy lie had successfully aroused everyone's greed. This Ice Demon was very good at bewitching people.
Ice Demon had made use of everyone's subconscious disbelief or unwillingness to believe that Ding Ning could easily defeat him at such a young age. He had attributed all the credit to the power of the treasure and aroused their greed for the treasure.
However, Ding Ning could not explain such a thing at all. How could he explain it? He could tell everyone that he had actually been stuffed into the Nine-Dragon Tripod to refine his body. He had defeated Ice Demon with his physical strength alone.
If he dared to say this, he believed that even a master in the Real Martial Arts Realm would not be able to resist capturing him and slicing him up thousands of times. They would not stop until they understood everything.
Thus, Ding Ning could only suffer in silence. He had to suffer in silence.
But, so what? This did not mean that he would be afraid. The strength of the Sorcerer Tribe was far beyond his imagination. This was only the physique of a young warrior of the Sorcerer Tribe. It allowed him to defeat a master at the peak of the Earth Martial Arts Realm with one punch. How strong would the body of an adult warrior of the tribe be? This made him have a strong desire.
He had an unexpected gain at the bottom of the sea. Not only had he broken through the shackles of his spiritual strength, but he had also successfully refined the Fire of the Underworld. Coupled with Flowing Light and the Soul-splitting Saber, he now had many trump cards and was not afraid of being besieged by everyone present.
It was just that there were some things that he didn't want to expose if he couldn't kill them all and not let the news leak. However, if these people were greedy and didn't know what was good for them, he didn't mind becoming a bloody butcher.
What he didn't notice was that after experiencing body refinement and struggling with the Flames of the Ninth Hell, his entire mentality had already undergone a great change. He wasn't indecisive and cautious like before, and he didn't rack his brains and live cautiously because he was worried that a moment of impulse would bring trouble to himself in the future.
Instead, it was filled with domineering arrogance and confidence. Not convinced? In that case, he would beat him until he was convinced. As for the revenge that would follow, it was not within his consideration at all. It was nothing more than dealing with soldiers with generals and water with an earth weir.
So, after Ice Demon's naked provocation, Ding Ning did not even bother to explain and ignored him. He looked down on the world and said coolly, "Who else wants to fight, come at me together."
Before the restless heroes could speak, Ding Ning's indifferent voice sounded again, "However, before that, you'd better think carefully. Don't die in vain."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Ning suddenly disappeared. Except for a few people, most people didn't even see his shadow. Ice Demon's head was smashed by Ding Ning with one punch.
The moment Ice Demon noticed Ding Ning's sudden disappearance, he had a strong feeling of alarm. When he wanted to dodge without hesitation, he found that his body was bound by an invisible force. Then, everything went black in front of him and his head was smashed like a rotten watermelon. Red and white blood flowed all over the ground.
The dignified Ice Demon didn't even have the time to scream before he was killed by Ding Ning in such an extremely cruel and violent way.
There was a dead silence on the scene. Ju Zhu's foot froze in the air. He didn't know whether to move forward or retreat, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Gui Sou's green eyes flashed like ghost fire. His figure was erratic like a ghost, but he subconsciously stepped back to keep a distance from Ding Ning.
Dragon Xiaotian's pupils contracted violently. He held the handle of his Guan Dao even more tightly. The blue veins on the back of his hand bulged, and his monstrous fighting intent kept rising.
The black-robed man's eyes were stern. He looked at Ding Ning with flickering eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
Night Lone Ranger frowned with a thoughtful look in her eyes. At that moment, she was probably the only one who noticed that Ding Ning seemed to have used some mysterious power to bind Ice Demon so that it couldn't even dodge. But she didn't know what kind of power it was.
As for the others, some were afraid, some were resentful, some were excited, some were disgusted, some were excited, and some were afraid …
But obviously, everyone was shocked. They avoided Ding Ning's cold eyes with flickering eyes and didn't dare to look at him.
"Are you going to attack me?"
Ding Ning stared at Ju Zhu expressionlessly. There was no emotion in his emotionless tone, as if he was asking casually, "Have you eaten today?".
A chill from the bottom of his heart made Ju Zhu take three steps back unconsciously. His face darkened and he even lowered his head, not daring to look at Ding Ning's eyes.
Although he was very unwilling to admit it, he was truly afraid. Ding Ning's calm gaze and indifferent tone gave him a terrifying pressure that was almost tangible. It caused him to feel bone-chilling and tremble all over. The scene of the ice demon's head shattering like a watermelon kept flashing in his mind.
It seemed that the person who was asking him was not a young man in his early twenties, but a king above the Ninth Heaven asking the lowliest subject.
This feeling filled him with anger and a strong sense of shame, but the chill from the bottom of his bones and blood made him not dare to do anything extra.
He hadn't felt this kind of emotion since he broke through to the Earth Martial Arts Realm. But at this moment, it appeared again, making his legs tremble. He knew that it was fear.
Ding Ning raised the corner of his mouth imperceptibly. He didn't force Ju Zhu to continue to answer. He turned to Gui Sou and asked, "Are you going to attack me?"
Ding Ning knew that money could move people's hearts. It was impossible to force Ju Zhu to retreat with just words.
But this didn't stop him from experimenting with the new way of using his spiritual strength after refining the Fire of the Underworld. He wanted to plant the seed of fear in Ju Zhu's heart.
In the upcoming group battle, this seed of fear would play a role at the critical moment. It would help him find a flaw so that he could win without exposing his trump card.
He had to admit that only a few of the experts present could pose a threat to him. Ju Zhu was definitely one of them, Long Xiaotian was another, and the black-robed man was another. Gui Sou was actually the weakest among them.
Of course, Gui Sou was the weakest for him, but he might be the strongest for the others.
After all, Gui Sou's cultivation method was too weird. He could control ghosts and the Ghost King, which was extremely difficult to deal with.
If he didn't have the Fire of the Underworld and the Pupil Sorcery, which was the nemesis of Gui Sou, he would also have a headache.
The one he was most afraid of was Ning Ye, who made him feel that he couldn't see through him. Even though Ning Ye didn't show any hostility from beginning to end, Ding Ning still paid more attention to him. It was better to be safe than sorry.
It was better to be safe than sorry. After all, Ning Ye was the only one who could threaten him.
The current situation was very interesting. Ju Zhu didn't dare to make trouble for the time being; Ning Ye always appeared to be harmless; Long Xiaotian was full of fighting spirit. This battle was inevitable, but he didn't seem to be willing to join hands with others.
The black-robed man didn't look like an Ancient Warrior, but more like an ordinary person. He didn't show any signs of making trouble for the time being. But Gui Sou didn't do anything, but he was always ready to make trouble.
Once these people joined hands, Ding Ning would be in trouble. It was impossible to defeat them without exposing his trump card. What gave him the biggest headache were those who were watching.
Although his cultivation was not as high as these people, ants could bite an elephant to death. More than a hundred people joined hands and besieged him, which was enough to make him suffer.
Therefore, he quickly made a plan that was most beneficial to him. First, he killed Ice Demon as fast as lightning to frighten most people. Then, he planted the seed of fear in Ju Zhu so that he wouldn't dare to act rashly for a while. Then, he killed Gui Sou as fast as lightning to weaken his opponent's strength and reverse the situation.
Facing Ding Ning's provocation, Gui Sou grinned, revealing a mouthful of uneven and sparse teeth. He laughed like a ferocious ghost and said, "Hand over the treasure and I can spare your life!"
Ding Ning's method of killing Ice Demon did surprise him, but it was just a surprise and not enough to make him afraid. He had enough confidence in his own means.
"Really? Then come and get it with your ability! "
Before Ding Ning's voice died away, he suddenly jumped up, perfectly demonstrating the meaning of being as quiet as a virgin and as agile as a fleeing rabbit. His speed was unimaginably fast, leaving several shadows in the air, and he pointed at the center of Gui Sou's eyebrows.
"Boy, you're still too young. Haha."
Gui Sou laughed weirdly. When Ding Ning was only five meters away from him, the Spirit-summoning Flag in his hand suddenly exploded and turned into a cloud of black fog. The fog condensed into a huge ghost head in the air, which opened its big mouth to bite him.
The whole sky was covered by the black fog. The shrill cries of ghosts and wolves made people's blood boil. There seemed to be countless ferocious ghosts demanding their lives in their minds. Their chests were so depressed that they wanted to spit out blood to feel better.
The onlookers' faces changed dramatically and they looked at each other in shock. Gui Sou's means were really strange and unpredictable. Just being affected by it was so uncomfortable, how painful it must be for the one who bore the brunt of the attack.
It seemed that Ding Ning didn't expect Gui Sou to have such a means. His movement froze and he was swallowed by the ghost head without any time to resist.
Night Lone Ranger's expression changed dramatically. It seemed that she didn't expect Ding Ning to be so careless and fall into Gui Sou's trap so easily.
It should be noted that Gui Sou's move was his famous unique skill, "Mind-bewitching Ghost". The ghost head in the Spirit-summoning Flag could confuse the enemy's mind with ghost cries, swallow the enemy's soul, and corrode the enemy's body. Once the enemy was hit, even if he could survive, he would become a walking corpse under his control.
He used his trump card at the beginning to catch Ding Ning off guard, which showed how much importance he attached to Ding Ning. He didn't take Ding Ning seriously as he had shown before.
As the saying goes, concern makes one confused. Night Lone Ranger no longer cared about hiding her identity and was about to save Ding Ning. However, just as she was about to take action, she found out from the corner of her eye that Luoxue was watching this scene with a relaxed expression without worry.
Hearing this, her heart skipped a beat and she immediately stopped attacking. Ding Ning had stood up for her in a fit of anger, which showed how close they were as brother and sister. But now she could still look relaxed and smile, which meant that she was not worried that Ding Ning would be hurt by Gui Sou.
But why was she so confident in Ding Ning? Unless … the current situation was created by him on purpose.
This made her suddenly remember that Ding Ning had swallowed half a flood dragon's elixir, so his mental strength was extremely strong. How could a mere ghost trick confuse him? Thinking of her worry for nothing, she immediately felt ashamed and annoyed.
