Chapter 347 Annihilation
"Aaaaaah—!"
At this moment, several screams rang out again from the dark bamboo forest. The heavy smell of blood spread, and the fear that arose in their hearts made them panic.
"Ye Luo! If you've got the guts, come out and fight!"
"Yeah, yeah, what's so special about playing with formations!"
"Come out here—!" the group roared in despair, wildly swinging their swords to unleash their sword beams, as if trying to bolster their courage.
"Okay, then I'll come in."
At this moment, Ye Luo's ghostly voice rang out, sending chills down everyone's spines. The few people who had been challenging him just moments before suddenly seemed to have their throats grabbed, their lips pressed tightly together in fear, and they became tense and on guard.
"You mean, you want to fight me?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out beside him, startling the arrogant male cultivator. Without a word, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and he swung his broadsword at the man.
A chilling blade flashed, instantly slicing Ye Luo in two, blood splattering and falling to the ground.
The male cultivator wiped the blood from his face, looked down at Ye Luo's corpse on the ground, and burst into maniacal laughter, "Hahaha, Ye Luo is dead! He's dead! I killed him!!"
"The Celestial Body! Yes, yes, this precious blood and flesh are all mine, hahaha—"
Before his laughter could even fade, a sword pierced through his chest. Behind him, a male cultivator grinned sinisterly, "You dare to try and steal from our Forgetful Valley? You're asking for trouble!"
"you--!"
The disciples of Huanhua Sect were stunned. This sudden betrayal enraged them instantly. "You dare kill my senior brother? I'll fight you to the death!"
"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of you!"
"Charge! Kill them!!"
In an instant, the dark bamboo forest was filled with the glint of swords and the clash of blades as disciples from both sides clashed. Within moments, half of both sides had been killed or wounded.
"Never mind that, grab the corpse first!" someone shouted. The two groups each grabbed a piece of the corpse, ran far away, and then set up their defenses.
"Eat up!"
"This will greatly increase our power, and we'll definitely be able to get out!"
"Yes, yes, eat up!" The sound of chewing suddenly rang out in the dark bamboo forest.
A group of people were frenzied, devouring the corpses they had stolen, as if they were some kind of delicious elixir.
suddenly.
A blinding light shone into everyone's eyes, and the originally dark bamboo forest around them turned into a bright sea of lava and fire.
"Heh, is it tasty? Then I'll change it to a Fire Array - Lava Abyss for you." Ye Luo's teasing voice rang out again from within the magic array, "It'll taste even better grilled!"
The crowd looked around in bewilderment, then looked down and discovered that the person being devoured in their hands was not Ye Luo, but a large man.
It was alright when the light was dim, but now, looking at the bloody corpse in front of them, everyone turned pale and started vomiting violently.
"vomit--!"
Ye Luo: "Hey, don't throw up! Keep eating! I see you guys are enjoying your food."
Seeing everyone's miserable and pained state, he couldn't help but find it a little funny. With such poor mental fortitude, they thought they could eat him?
Could it be that the flesh and blood on his body are some kind of delicious delicacy, or is it not human flesh?
A leading disciple of the Qingyang Sect, looking at the other disciples who had died tragically around him, said in a trembling voice, "Ye Luo...you despicable scoundrel, let us out!"
"Since you're already here, don't rush off."
Ye Luo looked him over. "Hmm? I know you. Your name is Qu Sheng."
Upon hearing this, Qu Sheng's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively tensed up. "What do you want?"
"Don't be nervous, I just wanted to chat with you to ease the tension."
Qu Sheng: "Who wants to waste time talking to you? Let us out right now!"
"Oh? In that case, let's continue." As soon as Ye Luo finished speaking, the huge rock they were standing on instantly shattered into several pieces, and everyone fell into the lava.
"Aaaaaah—!"
"It's burning me! Help me!"
Several quick-witted cultivators used their spiritual energy to protect themselves and swiftly climbed onto small rocks to avoid the scorching heat of the lava.
Seeing this, others followed suit, and soon the small area of rock was densely packed with people.
"Get out of here! This place is mine!"
The burly man ripped a female cultivator off a rock, his massive body lodging on a rock. Seeing this, the others immediately summoned their magical artifacts and charged forward.
Before long, the people inside the lava began to fight, and corpses floated on the surface of the lava...
Outside the valley.
The large army that was sent to quell the unrest suddenly found itself fighting amongst themselves as the cultivators who had entered the barrier appeared.
One moment they were tearing and biting like madmen, the next they were fighting to the death. In just a short while, more than half of them were dead, and I felt a chill run down my spine.
Jiang Yunzi's face turned ashen, and he roared at the people forming an array on the warship, "What are you standing there for?! Break the barrier at the valley entrance right now!"
Upon hearing Jiang Yunzi's words, the cultivators on the warship who had formed an array quickly poured in their spiritual power to activate the array. Immediately, one after another, huge fireballs were thrown at the barrier, but this time they did not budge.
A look of astonishment crossed everyone's faces. It was clear that they had been deliberately let in, with the intention of trapping them.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Lin Wenhao stepped forward cautiously and asked, "What do we do now? Or... should we retreat first?"
"Don't retreat!"
Jiang Yunzi's face was grim. He was the one who advocated for the war, but now that the campaign had ended in such a failure, the forces that he had worked so hard to win over would definitely start to waver, and there might even be some who turned against him.
"Keep bombarding!"
Under the relentless attack, a crack appeared in the barrier at the valley entrance, but it was quickly repaired, which frustrated the people who had formed the formation.
have to.
All that effort was for nothing...
"This Ye Luo is truly a prodigy..." Nie Song, who was watching the battle from afar, exclaimed. "With his own strength and the ability to control the formation, he successfully blocked this wave of attacks. No one can match his talent!"
Shui Yun clicked her tongue in admiration and said, "Hmm, she's really good-looking... She meets our Huan Yin Sect's standards for accepting disciples."
Nie Song: "..."
"Oh my, look, that formation has changed again!" Shangguan Lin, who had been watching the battle closely, exclaimed. "The formation just now was an illusion with killing intent, but this one is probably a pure killing formation, isn't it? I never expected his skill in formations to be so high. It's truly enviable!"
"What's the use of praising him all the time? He's not your disciple anyway." Shui Yun said with a mocking expression, glancing at Fu Zhenghan with a sigh. "But this Ye Luo is both a peerless treasure and a scourge that will wipe out a family. It's really hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse."
On the Tianfeng Sect's warship, Lü Xuan watched the cultivators slaughtering each other in the distance and couldn't help but swallow hard. "He's actually so powerful..."
She used to think Ye Luo was quite kind, but now she sees him as a ruthless character. Could it be that people become so cruel after transmigrating to the cultivation world?
The same applies to Xin Hun Yin, Bai Ruoqian, and Ye Luo...
And what about her?
Just as Lü Xuan was lost in thought, Yang Shen came up from behind and asked, "Junior Sister Lü, have you seen your second senior brother?"
"No, isn't he inside the cabin?"
“He’s not here.” Yang Shen frowned slightly. “I don’t know where that guy went. My master told me to keep an eye on him…”
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. He's been locked in the cabin all day and we haven't seen him. Maybe he's gone outside for some fresh air." After saying that, Lü Xuan continued to watch the battle in the distance.
At this point, only a handful of people remained alive within the magic circle.
Qu Sheng looked around at the scene restored to its original state, with layers of corpses piled on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "How could this be... It was all an illusion..."
Ye Luo said, "That's right, it's all an illusion, but unfortunately you can't break it."
Qu Sheng looked up at Ye Luo, his eyes filled with terror, and frantically shouted towards his master outside the valley, "Master! Save me!!"
Lin Wenhao's face was grim, and he suddenly turned his head away, no longer looking at him. This scene revealed despair in his eyes.
"Oh dear, how heartless! Why is your master ignoring you?" Ye Luo smiled, looking distressed and regretful. "Poor thing, you've become a discarded pawn."
Upon hearing this, Qu Sheng trembled all over, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "I...I was wrong...Please forgive me...I will leave immediately and will never do it again!"
The others disregarded everything else and followed his example, kneeling down to beg for their lives, hoping to save their own. After all, once a person dies, everything is gone.
“In the past, I might have spared your lives…”
Suddenly, Ye Luo's friendly smile vanished, and she looked at them coldly, saying, "It's just a pity. I gave you a chance earlier, but you didn't take it. Since that's the case, then let me make an example of you."
These words turned everyone's faces pale, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Ye Luo manipulated the array plate, and the array flashed with crackling blue light. Several terrifying bolts of lightning struck down, instantly turning the people inside out into charred mortals. After shuddering a few times, they fell straight down, dead on the spot.
Smelling the burnt meat, Cen Feng covered his nose in disgust. "Did he just die like that?"
"This way of dying is already quite humane, goodbye!" Ye Luo suddenly waved his sleeve, throwing all the corpses of these people at the valley entrance out of the valley.
