You can define a location for an individual URI by using the location = form.

location = /test.html {
    allow 1.2.3.4;
    deny all;
}

See this document for details.

You need a location block in your config like this

location = /test.html {
        deny 192.168.1.1; #define the IP you want to block here
        allow all; #allow the rest
}

Nginx tests IP in order and accepts the first match, so in this case your denied IP will match the first entry and all others will match the allow all
