Chapter 856 Breakout

The cultivators from the outside world were still in fear of the Sky-Splitting Disk, and they all took defensive postures at once. The generals in the military headquarters also became more cautious. If the Sky-Splitting Disk was as powerful as before, the cultivators from the outside world might consider retreating, which was exactly what they did not want to see.

The green light released by the Sky-Splitting Disk only covered a few hundred meters around Ning Qingyun before it stopped spreading. The sky was also calm, without any thunder. Ning Qingyun sat in the center of the Sky-Splitting Disk, meditating quietly to repair his injuries.

When the outside cultivators saw this, some of them laughed out loud, "He is already at the end of his strength and can no longer use that magic weapon on a large scale. Let's attack together and finish him off first!"

"Yes, take care of him first!"

More than a dozen figures from the team of foreign cultivators rose into the sky, controlling the magic weapons in their hands to attack Ning Qingyun directly.

These dozen people are the leaders of their respective teams. The magic weapons in their hands can be regarded as the treasures of their sects. There is the green halberd that is said to be indestructible, the gilded fire fan that can break all formations, and the boundless galaxy sword that is said to be able to split stars and cut the moon. The sky is filled with precious light, and the pressure in the air gathers, and they all fall towards Ning Qingyun's direction.

The combatants on both sides were all attracted by this incident. The team that had just arrived at the battlefield couldn't help but shout, "Danger, get out of the way!"

"It's over. Unless you have a teleportation talisman, there's no way you can dodge this attack!"

Many people couldn't bear to see the hero fall, and turned their heads away in sorrow. When they were preparing to counterattack and shouting for revenge for the victims, they were attracted by the voices of their companions, "Look, that green light seems to be able to block all attacks, he is safe and sound!"

All the colorful energy attacks were blocked by the green barrier. Surrounded by the green light, Ning Qingyun adjusted his breathing and healed his wounds. The attacks from the outside could not disturb him at all.

"You don't have to worry about me. They can't break through the defense of the Sky-Splitting Disk. But I need to recuperate and heal my wounds later, so I won't have time to take care of other things. Please be careful!" Ning Qingyun didn't want to see casualties on his side. However, if he continued to use all his strength to activate the Sky-Splitting Disk, on the one hand, he would not be able to sustain it. On the other hand, the lethality would be too great. If these more than one thousand or nearly two thousand external cultivators were unwilling to fight and escape from the encirclement, it would indeed cause a lot of trouble later.

Since the military has already decided on a plan to trap and annihilate the enemy, he naturally has to cooperate.

The foreign cultivators did not give up and tried again and again. Seeing that they could not break through the defense of the Sky-Splitting Disk, they began to fight back. From the previous battles, they believed that the only threat to their personal safety was the Sky-Splitting Disk in Ning Qingyun's hand. As for other people, they posed no threat to them. In their opinion, in the previous battles, these natives had run out of tricks and had no power to fight back. Even if new natives came, they were just some vagrants and would not amount to anything.

The all-out attack of the foreign monks soon caused casualties, especially among the newly arrived troops on the battlefield who were bent on attacking and killing the enemy. The frustrated supporters, with the support of the military, gradually caught up with the military's pace and joined the army.

With the protection of the military formation and the support troops carrying new weapons and equipment, the situation once again entered a stalemate. Whenever there were too many casualties and the military formation seemed about to be breached, new support troops would arrive, or Ning Qingyun would take action in time and join the battlefield with the Sky-Splitting Disk.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed. Dongfang Cangyue from Tiangong Mountain could not help but send a message, "Brother Yuehu, the Eight Directions Celestial Array was damaged by the thunder before and it is difficult to recover. The Soul Refining Array is also incomplete. With that person here, it is impossible to swallow up this army today. On the contrary, that person is hard to figure out. If he attracts thunder again, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties. It is better for us to evacuate first and make plans later."

After listening to Dongfang Cangyue's proposal, Gong Yuehu sighed, "We lost too many people in that disappearing space crack, and the disciples of each family are full of anger. Now the other side's deaths are not enough, and the anger has not yet dissipated. If we retreat now, I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the disciples and lose cohesion!" Gong Yuehu knew very well that continuing to entangle would not do them any good and would only increase unknown variables.

However, Master Song Yang is dead, and the two forces of Yukong City and Chonggu led by him are leaderless and may not be willing to obey their orders. Especially now, not only are their morale frustrated, but they have also forged a deep feud with these natives because of the deaths of their fellow disciples. Once they order a retreat, they may face the end of disintegration.

Thinking of this, Gong Yuehu and Dongfang Cangyue both looked to the front. A burly man over nine feet tall, wielding a sledgehammer, was rushing to the front of the team.

That's Su Mu Ta! Most people from Donghaiyuan are treacherous, but Su Mu Ta is an outlier. Dongfang Cangyue and others initially chose to be with Su Mu Ta because they thought he was simple-minded and easy to persuade. But now, Su Mu Ta's stubborn character gives them a headache.

Sure enough, Sumuta rejected the two's proposal to retreat and threatened that he would not stop until all the natives were killed.

"Brother Dongfang, you are too timid. Our people have high cultivation levels, and these natives are mostly ordinary people with limited physical strength. The longer the time, the more favorable the situation will be for us. As for that man, I don't know what means he used to control that kind of magical weapon. Now he has been beaten back to his original form. You'd better not encourage others and destroy your own prestige. If you are willing to put in a little more effort, these natives will be killed soon!" Sumuta has a simple mind and speaks directly. He has long been dissatisfied with the way Dongfang Cangyue and others conserved their strength.

"Brother Su, the purpose of our coming to the mortal world this time is to look for opportunities. Since you and I have different opinions, why don't we separate and go our separate ways!" Dongfang Cangyue felt a growing sense of crisis. He couldn't wait to persuade Su Muta to advance and retreat together. He exchanged glances with Gong Yuehu and commanded the disciples of Tiangong Mountain and Lingxi Mountain to start breaking out.

Seeing the two men leading the team to break out to the west, Sumuta breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down the pace of attack. He knew very well that the current situation was not in their favor. The person that made them wary always took action at the critical moment, and it was obvious that he still had some strength to spare. Moreover, although the individual strength of these natives was not high, they were well-organized and united, and the strength they exerted was far beyond their expectations. On the other hand, although their side had a high level of cultivation, they came from different forces and had their own plans. They were like a pile of loose sand and it was impossible for them to work together.

Dongfang Cangyue and his men were the first to break out, which was a good opportunity for them to test that person's attitude. If that person still had some strength left, he would definitely try to stop them, and he could take this opportunity to break out in the opposite direction.
