Chapter 1945: Howling Wind Formation Translator: Legge Within the cave. Su Zimo did not chase after the remaining Black Immortals. Instead, he tidied up the battlefield. There were no treasures in the storage bags of the Black Immortals. Most of them were elixirs that could recover Essence Qi and Su Zimo collected them casually. Su Zimo noticed something else. The names etched on the Hunting Badges of the Black Immortals that died had already vanished. On the blank side of his Hunting Badge, a number appeared—29. This meant that he had just killed 29 people. Su Zimo felt that there was something strange about the Hunting Badge. However, he could not throw it away casually. That was because in the Ten Absolute Hell, the Hunting Ranking would sense it and punish anyone who lost their Hunting Badge! Su Zimo did not want to attract attention. If he wanted to head to the Ten Absolute Formation, he had to try his best to avoid the surveillance of the Mirage Eye outside! If the City Lord and Exalted Immortals of the City Lord’s residence saw him approaching the Ten Absolute Formation, they might be alerted and change the situation. Su Zimo had not even seen the Ten Absolute Formation before. Therefore, he could only imagine and could not think of any solution. Right now, his first step was to avoid the surveillance of the Mirage Eye and head to the Ten Absolute Formation! Arriving at the entrance of the cave, Su Zimo sensed for a moment before retreating with a grim expression. Before he left the cave, he already felt the spying of the Mirage Eye! This meant that someone was watching him from the City Lord’s residence! “I’ve been targeted,” Su Zimo’s eyes flickered in deep thought. Although he did not know what happened in the City Lord’s residence, he could vaguely guess that his attack earlier on had most likely attracted the attention of others! Su Zimo was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he returned to the cave and examined it carefully. There was only a single entrance to leave this place. Furthermore, the mountains of the upper world were tough and the ground was firm—even his strength could not shake it. Even if he could penetrate a hole, it would cause an even greater commotion and he would not be able to avoid the surveillance of the Mirage Eye. After pondering for a long time, Su Zimo assumed a lotus position and closed his eyes to rest. He had already thought of a solution. However, he had to wait for a good opportunity. As time passed by slowly, the massacre outside intensified and the blood stench intensified. Su Zimo sat quietly in the cave, as though he had no intention of leaving. As he had expected, in the City Lord’s residence, Prince Yuan Zuo and Perfected Immortal Jing Yue were not the only ones—the other City Lords and Exalted Immortals had already noticed him. However, as time passed by, everyone gradually became impatient. The battle was intense elsewhere and it was quiet here. Everyone could only see a pitch-black hole without a single shadow. After a long time, someone could not hold on any longer. Many City Lords and Exalted Immortals shifted their attention to the other cultivators. A night passed. Prince Yuan Zuo was getting tired as well. No matter how interested and curious he was towards Su Zimo, there was no way he could keep watching. “What is that person trying to do by hiding in this cave for so long?!” Prince Yuan Zuo harrumphed coldly. Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said, “Your Highness, we don’t have to keep an eye on this place. It’ll be fine as long as we take a look occasionally. Furthermore, if that person leaves the cave, he won’t be able to hide from the Mirage Eye.” Prince Yuan Zuo nodded. As the two of them conversed, a tiny ant crawled slowly on the mud of the cave and left. Naturally, the ant was also watched by the Mirage Eye. However, there were bloody battles everywhere in the Ten Absolute Hell—who would pay attention to an ant that was like dust? Even if anyone saw it, they would not take it to heart. The ant crawled slowly and before long, it arrived beneath an ancient tree. Its tiny figure hid beneath a withered leaf. Suddenly, a divine power emanated from the ant. Immediately after, the withered leaf popped open and the ant disappeared. In its place was a butterfly the size of an infant’s palm that flew in the direction of the Ten Absolute Formation. The Ten Absolute Hell formed a space of its own with many living beings. This butterfly was only the most common one in the Ten Absolute Hell. However, be it the ant at the start or the butterfly at the back, they were all conjured by Su Zimo using his greater divine power, the 72 Transformations. The 36 Transformations was a lesser divine power and could only conjure sand, gravel and mud without any signs of life. The 72 Transformations was a greater divine power and could transform into flowers, trees, birds and beasts. Back in the ancient battlefield of Tianhuang Mainland, Su Zimo comprehended many lesser and greater divine powers. The 36 Transformations and 72 Transformations were among them. Although Su Zimo was a Grade 9 Black Immortal, his Essence Spirit cultivation had long broken through from the Black Essence realm to the Earth realm! Even without using the innate divine power of the Six Tusk Divine Elephant, he could release greater divine powers. Of course, out of caution, Su Zimo spent the entire night in the cave on purpose. He waited for the many Exalted Immortals and City Lords of the City Lord’s residence to be exhausted before releasing the 72 Transformations and turning into a tiny ant to leave. After leaving the range of the cave, he transformed into a butterfly to increase his speed and flew towards the Ten Absolute Formation. Everything happened right in front of the Mirage Eye. However, no one expected that Su Zimo could release the greater divine power, the 72 Transformations, transform into other living beings and leave the cave right under their noses! Even with the 72 Transformations, Su Zimo did not dare to transform into a living being with a large target lest he attracted attention. He continued forward and avoided some cultivators and Earth Demons with his spirit perception. In less than half a day, he arrived at his destination. It was an endless forest with towering ancient trees that were lush. However, a gigantic forbidden ground appeared in the middle of the forest with a terrifying aura that no living being dared to approach. At first glance, the forbidden ground seemed empty. However, Su Zimo had already seen some traces of array formations in the forbidden ground. This was the center of the Ten Absolute Hell, the Ten Absolute Formation! Su Zimo did not dare to approach. Just by lingering around the edge, he could already sense the terrifying aura released by the Ten Absolute Formation! He maintained his butterfly form as he observed the traces of the Ten Absolute Formation intently. However, after looking at it for an hour, he felt a splitting headache and had no clue. It was way too complicated! He did not even know how to deal with a single immortal formation, let alone ten. Pondering for a moment, Su Zimo took out a supreme black-grade Dharmic treasure from his storage bag and threw it towards the forbidden ground ahead. Suddenly, a wild gust of wind howled above the initially empty forbidden ground! Right in front of Su Zimo, a gigantic black wind rose from the ground and devoured the supreme black-grade Dharmic treasure instantly. In the blink of an eye, the black wind dissipated. As for the supreme black-grade Dharmic treasure, it was turned into ashes by the black wind and floated down. If he was not wrong, the area ahead should be the Howling Wind Formation! After pondering for a moment, Su Zimo took out an earth-grade Dharmic treasure he had picked up in the abyss of the Dragon Abyss Star and threw it into the Howling Wind Formation. Another black wind devoured the earth-grade Dharmic treasure. In less than a breath, the black wind dissipated and the earth-grade Dharmic treasure had already shattered into a pile of dim metal pieces that fell to the ground. Su Zimo was secretly alarmed. Based on the might of the Howling Wind Formation, his Green Lotus True Body would most likely be destroyed with his flesh separated within a single breath!
