Outside the palace, night gradually fell.
The geniuses from the inner and outer areas were on full alert, and the imperial guards and masters from the palace were all standing outside the palace.
Li Xuan and his three companions once again seemed a little outnumbered.
"When we start, I'll use Dafan Yetian to temporarily hold them back. You just rush in and kill the old emperor at all costs!"
Yan Jiu said using telepathy.
"I have three thousand Green Silk Swords! If the old emperor is really just an ordinary person, just one of the three thousand swords would be enough to kill him."
Hai Qing moved the sword in his hand calmly.
Li Xuan was observing his surroundings. He had three flashes of space, which was enough to enter the hall in an instant. Who could stop him from using such a mythical skill?
But is it really that simple?
Since killing the old emperor is their ultimate mission, the old emperor's combat power must be extraordinary.
Wow!
At this moment, a familiar sword light split the night sky and lit up in the distance, followed by a burst of noise, and the surrounding imperial guards gathered there.
Seeing this sword light, everyone present had different expressions.
The imperial guards and palace masters outside the hall all had serious expressions on their faces. They had never seen such a powerful opponent before.
Li Xuan and other contestants could naturally recognize the sword light at a glance.
"It's Huo Yi! He really couldn't help but take action!"
"You've come just in time! A tiger is always a tiger in the dark, but once it's exposed, it's a lamb to be slaughtered!"
The geniuses in the inner and outer areas are all eager to try. In this world where strength is suppressed, the gap in strength between them and Huo Yi is the smallest.
So they all want to fight against this top talent here. This is one of the few opportunities to defeat him head-on.
Moreover, this was happening at a martial arts tournament, and there were many elders outside watching the place, so no one wanted to not show off.
However, although they were anxious, they were not stupid and knew that protecting the old emperor was the top priority.
Soon, a man with holy light on his head spoke up, "Xiao Bei! Da Mo! Each of you take four people to take out Huo Yi, and then come back to continue defending the hall!"
Upon hearing this order, the two men showed joy and quickly brought a few of their closest friends to rush to the location of the aftermath of the battle.
The defensive force here was weakened a little in an instant.
Li Xuan looked at the backs of these people leaving, and naturally understood that Huo Yi deliberately lured them over to share the pressure on their side.
It seems that he must have been guarding outside the palace early in the morning, and he was able to recognize the identities of himself and others. This ability to identify them alone is something that the geniuses in the inner and outer areas cannot compare to.
Of course, Li Xuan naturally knew that he was definitely not helping the three of them out of kindness. As geniuses in the core area, if the three of them completed the assassination.
Then the credit must belong to these three people. Although the geniuses in other core areas also won, it was an easy win.
Only by making corresponding contributions can you eventually get a good ranking.
Bang!
At this moment, there was a noise inside the hall.
you!
Prince Jing's voice came from the hall.
For a moment, the situation outside the entire hall became tense.
The Imperial Guards, the Palace Masters, and Eunuch Wu were still hesitating whether to rush into the hall at this time, even though His Majesty had already given an order that no one could enter without his permission.
Prince Jing's trusted subordinate was also hesitant at this moment, because no one knew what had happened in the hall.
Wow!
At this moment, there was a man outside the hall who rushed into the hall without any hesitation.
boom!
A golden light shone out, filling Li Xuan's vision and brightening his eyes so much that he temporarily lost all vision.
And an extremely strong repulsive force came from the golden light, which bounced him away directly.
Almost at the same time as he took action, Hai Qing had already drawn out the green sword in his hand and slashed towards the hall.
Wow!
Although only one sword strike was made, strands of sword energy as thin as black hair flew out from the sword body, chopping the stone slabs, white jade pillars, and lamps outside the hall into pieces.
The sword energy was like strands of black hair, slashing towards the hall.
boom!
After the golden light burst out, all the black hair was broken and the entire hall was covered with a layer of golden light, as if it was made of gold.
Wow!
Yan Jiu also attacked at the same time, but he did not attack inside the hall. Instead, he waved his hand and enveloped all the other people around him in darkness.
Mahabrahma Night Sky is coming!
They were all mired in darkness.
Prince Jing's trusted subordinate did not hesitate and quickly drew the saber at his waist, slashing towards the hall.
This blow was enough to split a row of houses in half.
Bang!
However, the sword light dissipated immediately after it fell on the golden palace.
After the failed attack, Li Xuan also realized that the hall was covered by a special formation. After activating it, they were completely powerless with their current combat power.
"withdraw!"
Li Xuan made the decision without hesitation.
Even though they had already reached the outside of the hall, it would probably be even more difficult to enter here later. However, facing this impeccable golden hall, continuing to attack now would be waiting for death.
boom!
Dafan Yetian also held on for a moment before disappearing with a bang. Yan Jiu's face turned pale. Controlling so many people, even for just a short second, had already caused serious damage to his spirit.
"Quickly capture these traitors!"
Eunuch Wu was the first to shout after breaking free from his restraints.
The others also recognized Li Xuan and the others at this time: "Do it!"
Without much nonsense, they attacked in an instant, and all kinds of skills and methods rained down on them.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Yan Jiu's body suddenly climbed up and quickly merged with the night sky in the sky, making people dare not chase him at all.
Swish! Swish!
Li Xuan used the remaining two segments of space flashes and disappeared in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Hai Qing swung the sword in her hand, and a space door was cut out by her. After she took a step into it, the space door disappeared immediately.
They each have their own methods. The geniuses in the first echelon are not only strong in attributes and combat power, but also have skills and methods that are far superior to those ordinary geniuses.
Prince Jing's trusted subordinate also ran away at the first moment. Although he was extremely fast, he could cover hundreds of meters in just two steps.
But judging from the retreat methods of Li Xuan and the other two, they were really too shabby.
boom!
The skills used by everyone instantly locked onto him. He couldn't even defend himself against the numerous skills, and he was instantly overwhelmed, leaving not even a complete corpse.
