Li Huan immediately used his divine skill, "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth," to deflect the hundreds of incoming arrows back!
Whoosh! Whoosh... Awooo... Awooo...
The cavalrymen were hit by arrows one after another, screaming as they fell from their horses.
Seeing this, Zhang Wuji also used the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" to help Li Huan deflect the flying arrows back at the cavalry!
In the blink of an eye, only a few dozen of the three hundred cavalrymen remained. Terrified, they fled in disarray.
Li Huan leaped up and flew swiftly towards the "Eight Heroes of Divine Arrows," drawing his "Mysterious Iron Pig-Slaughtering Knife" and hacking away like a storm!
Amidst screams of agony, the "Eight Heroes of Divine Arrows" suffered devastating losses, some losing their heads, others their arms, none escaping death.
"Your Highness, run! Your Highness, run!"
Seeing that things were not going well, Hebi Weng shouted at the top of his lungs.
Having witnessed Li Huan's incredible power, the Prince of Ruyang was terrified. He quickly spurred his horse and led Wang Baobao and Zhao Min to escape from Wan'an Temple.
The wind howled.
The fire was growing increasingly fierce and had already reached the third floor.
Crane Pen Elder did not leave, but raised his head and shouted: "You thieving monk! Release my senior brother at once!"
Fan Yao stood on the fifth floor, carrying Lu Zhangke who was wrapped in a quilt, and said with a grin.
"Old man Crane, if you're so capable, come and rob me!"
Crane Pen Elder and Deer Staff Master had a deep bond, and he couldn't bear to abandon his senior brother, so he used his lightness skill to fly up the pagoda and engage in a fierce battle with Fan Yao.
To escape the raging fire, the members of the six major sects all climbed to the sixth and seventh floors.
Li Huan ordered, "Xiao Zhao, Bu Hui, pack up! Let's go!"
Zhang Wuji exclaimed in surprise: "Master! Aren't you...aren't you going to save the six major sects on the tower?"
Li Huan deliberately asked, "Why save the six major sects?"
Yang Xiao suddenly sneered: "Hmph! Back then at Bright Peak, the six major sects joined forces to attack the Ming Cult. Today, they are trapped on the tower and engulfed in flames. They have only themselves to blame!"
Wei Yi chuckled a few times, then raised his head and shouted at the pagoda.
"Abbess Miejue! Master Kongzhi! This day next year will be the anniversary of your deaths! I will burn joss paper for you!"
Zhang Wuji hurriedly clasped his hands and said, "Master! I am a disciple of the Wudang Sect..."
"Bullshit!" Li Huan interrupted Zhang Wuji. "Ever since you became the vice leader of the Ming Cult, you're no longer a disciple of the Wudang Sect! What, you want to have your cake and eat it too?"
Zhang Wuji looked embarrassed: "I was in a hurry and misspoke. Please forgive me, Master! I was once a disciple of the Wudang Sect. I can't just stand by and watch Uncle-Master Song and the others perish in the fire!"
With a ding, the "God-level Lunch Box System" issued another notification.
[Attention, Master! The sixth mission to travel through the world of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" has been issued!]
[He set up a stall selling boxed lunches at the "Lion Slaying Ceremony" and earned one million taels of silver!]
[Mission successful! The electric tricycle is eligible for an equipment upgrade!]
Another upgrade? And it's an equipment upgrade! What kind of equipment will we get?
Li Huan was filled with curiosity and eagerly anticipated the meeting.
The Lion-Slaying Assembly is a major event in the original novel "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".
At that time, the six major sects and various gangs will gather at Shaolin Temple, making it extremely lively, comparable to a temple fair.
If the leaders of the six major sects are burned to death tonight, wouldn't the "Lion Slaying Assembly" become deserted?
If Lao Tzu sets up a stall selling boxed lunches at the "Lion Slaying Assembly," whose money will he earn?
With this in mind, Li Huan immediately changed his mind and decided to rescue the six major sects.
"Wuji, for your sake, let's save them first, then retreat."
Zhang Wuji exclaimed with delight, "Thank you, Master!"
Li Huan instructed, "Go quickly to the Prince of Ruyang's residence and find a long rope!"
"A rope?" Zhang Wuji asked in surprise.
Li Huan pointed to the pine tree next to him: "After you get the rope, tie one end to the tree and the other end to the pagoda. This will help the six major sects escape the sea of fire!"
Zhang Wuji suddenly realized: "The leader is wise! I'll go to the Prince's mansion immediately to find a rope!"
Li Huan said to Wei Yixiao, "You go too, and search separately with Wuji in the Prince's mansion!"
"Yes, sir!" Wei Yixiao obeyed the order and followed Zhang Wuji, using his lightness skill to fly away from Wan'an Temple.
Actually, ropes aren't necessary; the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" technique can be used to rescue the people from the six major sects.
In his haste and following Li Huan's orders, Zhang Wuji had no time to think and rushed to the Prince of Ruyang's residence to find the rope.
The fire intensified and spread to the sixth floor.
The people from the six major sects hid on the eighth and ninth floors.
The railing on the seventh floor of the pagoda was burned through, and Hebi Weng lost his footing and fell to the ground!
In the critical moment, Hebi Weng used his crane-beak pen to stab the pagoda, pinning it to the third floor and preventing him from falling into the sea of fire.
He suddenly twisted his waist, somersaulted in the air, and jumped from the third floor out of the sea of fire, landing on the ground and escaping danger.
However, the man's eyebrows and beard were burned off, and flames were burning on the hem of his clothes.
Just as the flames were extinguished, Fan Yao shouted from the tower, "Old Crane! Give it back to your senior brother! Catch it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhangke fell from the seventh floor along with his quilt.
Seeing this, Hebi Weng bravely reached out to try and catch Lu Zhangke!
In an instant, Hebi Weng changed his mind, hurriedly withdrew his hand, and struck the falling Lu Zhangke with a palm!
Thud! Lu Zhangke changed his falling trajectory, flew sideways, and crashed heavily to the ground.
Hebi Weng wasn't stupid; if he tried to catch Lu Zhangke, his arm would definitely be broken.
This palm strike can absorb some of the force of gravity during a fall.
Hebi Weng quickly unfolded the quilt and saw that Lu Zhangke was bleeding from his mouth and nose and had fallen to an unknown state.
"Senior brother! Senior brother!"
Crane-pen-old shouted repeatedly, but could not wake Deer-staff-guest. He could only pick him up and flee quickly.
Witnessing the tragic state of Lu Zhangke, the members of the six major sects were terrified.
