The world is filled with myriad sects, horrific demons, and rising heroes, but each only reigns for a few hundred years. This world had no protagonist; it was merely a cycle of one power replacing ...
"Brother Nanxing, you're overthinking it. That old fellow is determined to spend his whole life at Wulipo. He's not one of us. By the way, he's secured a spot in the inner sect this time, so we'll have to look after him in the future!"
The sound of two people exchanging pleasantries came from mid-air, completely disregarding Li Sisui and his companion. At this moment, the two seemed like turtles in a jar. Then, Wen Zhu's slightly surprised voice rang out from above:
"Disciples, heed my command! The Two Elements Dragon-Trapping Formation, withdraw!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Sisui felt an instant pressure from the surrounding space, similar to the feeling he had experienced when he was in the realm of the Unbound Daoist, only much weaker. At this moment, Leng Rushuang sensed that the summoning power of the passage above her head was gradually weakening, clearly indicating that the mountain ascent formation was about to expire. With a worried expression, she hurriedly asked:
"What's your plan? Tell me now, or you'll lose every last chance!"
“Miss Leng, once this formation shrinks to a certain range, you should…”
Afterwards, Li Sisui revealed his entire plan. Although Leng Rushuang looked on in disbelief, she still nodded subconsciously. As the Yin-Yang Dragon-Trapping Formation continued to shrink, the surrounding pressure also increased. After a short while, Li Sisui suddenly shouted:
"The mountain-climbing formation is about to disappear. It seems there's no hope of climbing this mountain. Let's leave as soon as possible!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Leng Rushuang raised her hand and summoned a red ribbon, which transformed into a red light. With an unstoppable momentum, it headed straight in the opposite direction of the mountain formation. At this moment, Nanxing and Wenzhu in the formation were shocked and had no time to think. They immediately ordered their disciples to redirect their spiritual energy and rush towards the location where Leng Rushuang was heading!
Leng Rushuang plunged downwards, and the transparent barrier beneath her feet was visibly thickening. A cold glint flashed in her eyes, followed by a brighter red light, as if she were determined to perish together with her opponent!
On the other side, Li Sisui had a red ribbon wrapped around his waist and hovered in mid-air using it. He stared intently at the top of his head, his eyes surging with golden light. After the Yin-Yang Dragon-Trapping Formation contracted again, the Slow Sword Domain burst forth from his body. Immediately afterward, a transparent short sword shot out from between his eyebrows, heading straight for Wen Zhu, the Valley Master of Tianyin Valley, who was blocking the entrance to the passage!
Through the slow sword domain, the Yin-Yang Dragon Trapping Formation, which was originally one with heaven and earth, once again revealed its true form. Every cultivator in the formation could see it clearly. At this moment, the area around Li Sisui was completely surrounded by more than two hundred cultivators, leaving him with no way to go to heaven or earth!
Under the filter of the slow sword domain, it is immediately clear which node's cultivators are weak and which node's cultivators are strong. In addition, because of his words just now and Leng Rushuang's subsequent actions, most of the spiritual energy of the great formation is now flowing towards Leng Rushuang's side.
Although Wenzhu is guarding the passage to the mountain, she is the weakest point in the formation, making her the perfect target for breaking the formation. Moreover, the entrance to the mountain formation is right behind Wenzhu. Once the formation is broken, we can immediately enter the passage and escape. It's like heaven is helping us!
Moreover, because of the Slow Sword Domain, once inside the domain, both the flow of spiritual energy and the speed of movement become extremely slow. When Wen Zhu realized that Li Sisui was coming for him, it was too late. In his haste, he discovered that he had fallen into a peculiar domain. Not only was the flow of his cultivation sluggish, but even the movement of his hands to block became extremely slow!
At first, he thought Leng Rushuang could easily break the formation and didn't think much of it. It wasn't until he saw that Leng Rushuang was unable to break the formation that he began to plan carefully. In addition, the slow sword domain has a limited range and cannot cover the entire formation. If there is no perfect opportunity, even if the slow sword domain is hastily activated, it will probably have little effect!
With an aura as powerful as a rainbow, the moment Leng Rushuang made contact with the barrier of the great formation, she used the rebound force of the thick barrier to launch herself towards Li Sisui at an even more incredible speed. Then, to the astonishment of all the cultivators, she arrived in front of Wenzhu after her attack, and the red ribbon she was tightly holding in her hand transformed into a raging crimson dragon, heading straight for Wenzhu!
Although Li Sisui and Leng Rushuang were caught off guard and had not rehearsed beforehand, they were perfectly in sync. Their movements were fluid and seamless, almost perfectly synchronized. The combination of Leng Rushuang's full-force attack and Li Sisui's transparent short sword caused even Wen Zhu, who possessed the terrifying strength of the second level of the Transformation Realm, to feel a sense of fear.
In a battle between masters, the difference is only a hair's breadth. Thanks to the effect of the slow sword domain that can delay everything, Wen Zhu was caught off guard by the two, and although she had to deal with the situation hastily, she could not withstand the fatal blow!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Faced with the rapidly changing situation, Nanxing on the other side of the formation had no time to react. He saw a blinding light burst forth from above, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and the sun and moon to lose their light. Then came a series of bell and drum sounds, like demonic noises, causing all who heard them to have splitting headaches. Those with weak cultivation immediately bled from their seven orifices and fell into a coma!
The Two Elements Dragon-Trapping Formation, which had just been blotting out the sky, became shaky and on the verge of collapse after this earth-shattering impact. In many places, the true forms of the cultivators were revealed. Looking at the mountain-ascending formation above, it was slowly closing. Before the light had even dissipated, Wen Zhu, the Valley Master of Tianyin Valley, fell from mid-air like a kite with a broken string, coughing up blood along the way. His Taoist robes were completely torn apart, and a large bell was faintly visible behind him, its body covered with fine cracks!
Upon seeing this, Nanxing gasped and instinctively flew towards Wenzhu, muttering to himself:
"This...this actually shattered Brother Wenzhu's natal golden bell! How terrifying! If Brother Wenzhu hadn't been known for his defense, I would probably have been killed by this attack!"
Nanxing grabbed Wenzhu, who then coughed violently, spitting out several more mouthfuls of blood. Her eyes were filled with a ferocious look as she stared viciously at the passage above her, gritting her teeth as she said:
"How ruthless! You almost took my life. Since that's the case, you won't get away with it either!"
As she spoke, Wen Zhu braced herself, stretched out her thick fingers, and began to draw something on her arm. Her fingers were incredibly strong, and her arm, which had been intact just moments before, was instantly covered in blood and gore. Then, it transformed into a streak of crimson light and headed straight for the passage to the mountain formation. Its speed was astonishing!
After the crimson light dissipated, Wenzhu visibly became much thinner, her whole body listless. Seeing this, Nanxing's eyes flickered with shock, and she stammered:
"Demon... Demon Mountain Forbidden Technique!"
As the bamboo fell, a large number of cultivators scattered and fell unconscious. The originally impregnable Yin-Yang Dragon-Trapping Formation became full of loopholes. Li Sisui and Leng Rushuang exchanged a glance and, without hesitation, plunged into the mountain passage that was about to close and disappeared. However, at the moment the passage closed, a streak of blood-red light also entered.
