Chapter 44: A Precaution
The man in black was hit by two fireballs and his clothes caught fire. He was so scared that he quickly stepped back and used a few magic spells to put out the fire.
Then his gaze turned to Master Wu Chen, whom he had never looked at directly before.
"I didn't know that Taiqiong Sect had a person like you. However, a Yuanying is still far from enough!"
Wu Chen Zhenren sneered and stood beside Ouyang Ruochen, "Yes, it is far behind. Wait a minute, I will catch up soon."
As he finished speaking, his aura began to rise steadily, from the peak of Nascent Soul to the first level of Spirit Transformation, the second level of Spirit Transformation... the ninth level of Spirit Transformation, until it reached the Fusion. But he did not stop, his aura was still rising, from the first level of Fusion, the second level of Fusion... the ninth level of Fusion, at which time his aura paused.
"It should be about the same this time."
Taoist Wu Chen took out his long sword. As the sword was unsheathed, a gust of wind blew around and sword energy continued to gather in the air. In a blink of an eye, thousands of long swords were suspended in the air, surrounding the man in black robes. The tips of the swords were shining with cold light and pointing at the man in black robes. Murderous intent filled the air.
Ouyang Ruochen flashed in front of Zhong Ling'er. The battle between the powerful beings was not something he could participate in. Fortunately, his master was there, otherwise he would not be able to go back today.
Zhong Ling'er naturally grabbed the eldest senior brother's arm and quietly attached an eighth-grade directional teleportation talisman to it.
Just now, she extended her spiritual sense and found a powerful aura not far away. She didn't dare to investigate carefully and retreated. It turned out that changing destiny is not so easy. Fortunately, she had an extra plan.
The man in black robe obviously didn't expect this move of Master Wu Chen, and he was defeated by him. Who would suppress his cultivation and act like a grandson for no reason? This guy is a famous swordsman, an invincible swordsman at the same level, and a swordsman who has reached the half-step of sword intent transformation!
Can this be fought? Of course not!
"You Taiqiong Sect are so despicable!"
The man in black knew that he had hit a wall today and wanted to escape immediately. He threw out a dozen talismans, and layers of earth walls appeared to block the sword intent and the sight of Taoist Wu Chen. So the man in black took advantage of this gap to escape quickly.
True Man Wu Chen had of course anticipated this, and fireballs fell from the sky, blocking the black-robed man's way. He then swung his sword, aiming straight at the black-robed man's face.
He kept in mind the instructions of his young disciple and was determined to find out who the man in black was and to capture him alive.
"These people have the nerve to call us despicable. Is there some misunderstanding about their own behavior?"
Zhong Ling'er smacked her lips. This man in black robe was really good at biting back. He was so shameless.
Ouyang Ruochen snorted coldly, looked at the photo stone hanging beside him, and finally said nothing.
Although this person used sorcery at the beginning, he used talismans at the critical moment. Judging from his proficiency in throwing talismans, he was a talisman cultivator. A talisman cultivator of Dongzhou who had reached the fusion level or above could only be an elder of a sect. The fifth elder of Lingjian Sect happened to be a talisman cultivator.
But this cannot be said lightly. After all, it is just a guess. Everything will become clear once the master captures the person.
"Burn his black robe. He should be wearing clan uniform underneath."
Zhong Linger had sharp eyes and saw that the black-robed man's mask was tightly protected, but a hint of white gleaming with golden light could be seen under the burnt black robe. This was the color of the Lingjian Sect's uniform.
When Wu Chen Zhenren was reminded, he threw fireballs down without mercy, vowing to burn the black robe to ashes. The sword in his hand was no longer focused on the mask, but on the clothes.
The man in black robe was shocked and protected himself tightly from front to back and left to right, throwing out talismans one after another. However, he was busy defending himself and his attacks became much weaker. After just a few moves from Master Wu Chen, he became flustered.
"A corpse can also be used as evidence!"
Zhong Ling'er saw that her master wanted to capture him alive, but thinking that there were still people in the dark, it would be better to make a quick decision, so she reminded him again.
The man in black robe almost vomited blood. Where did such a nasty kid come from? It was so hateful.
"If you don't take action, I will surrender and tell you everything!"
The man in black robe suddenly said something incomprehensible, and before everyone could react, another powerful aura appeared, like a black lightning rushing towards Ouyang Ruochen.
At the same time, a beam of light suddenly rose up and reached the sky. A large formation suddenly appeared, and Master Wu Chen and the man in black were trapped in the formation.
The man was not wearing a black robe, but he had used magic to cover his face, so that people could only see a layer of mist. After he activated the formation, the pressure on his body dissipated, and the powerful aura once again pressed down on several people. Ouyang Ruochen knelt on one knee again and could hardly move.
Zhong Ling'er leaned on Ouyang Ruochen, sticking close to the eldest senior brother. As long as the eldest senior brother didn't fall, she would not lie on the ground like the other four.
Feeling the pressure on him, Ouyang Ruochen smiled bitterly. This was another powerful being in the fusion stage. How could he, Ouyang Ruochen, deserve to have someone send two powerful beings to kill him?
The mysterious man didn't say anything. He took out a sword and smashed the photo stone into pieces. Then he stabbed Ouyang Ruochen with the sword.
Ouyang Ruochen wanted to move to avoid it, but the difference in their realms was too great, and it was very difficult to move under the pressure. He could only watch as the tip of the sword cut his clothes.
Zhenren Wu Chen, who was trapped in the formation, shouted angrily: "How dare you!" He took his sword and slashed at the formation barrier frantically. The barrier just shook twice but was not broken.
The man in black robe sneered, and the mysterious man also curled his lips. Ouyang Ruochen felt the cold tip of the sword scratching his skin, and everyone felt that Ouyang Ruochen was doomed.
But something unexpected happened at this moment. A ray of light flashed, and Ouyang Ruochen suddenly disappeared.
The mysterious man was stunned for a moment, and then he murmured, "Teleportation Talisman!"
He immediately spread out his spiritual sense and followed a wisp of breath floating in the air.
Zhong Ling'er immediately called on four disciples to rush towards the formation.
The four disciples were so frightened by the series of unexpected events that their heads were in a mess. They just followed the orders given by someone and did not come to their senses until they entered the formation.
Why didn't they take the opportunity to run away but entered the formation instead? Isn't this just walking into a trap? It wasn't until they saw the mysterious man flashing back that they understood what Zhong Ling'er meant.
They can't run away, but they can hold on to a big thigh. Although the thigh is trapped in the formation, it can still protect them.
Zhenren Wu Chen protected the five people behind him. His eldest disciple was teleported away. He was not in a hurry to break the formation and vented all his anger on the man in black.
The black-robed man trapped by the formation had no room to dodge. The talismans and magic weapons on his body shattered one after another, and his clothes were torn into pieces. The white sect robe with gold thread was faintly visible.
While Zhong Ling'er was looking for the center of the formation, she was watching the mysterious man outside with caution. When she saw him turn around and look at her without moving for a long time, a bold guess came to Zhong Ling'er's mind.
"Your companion is a formation master, right? He is good at setting up formations, but not good at fighting. Otherwise, why doesn't he come in and help you?
