Chapter 244: Killing the Tiger
Qingchen stood on the ruins of Yinhu City, his fingertips flashing with dark magic power.
The sealing talismans in the storage bag fell like snowflakes, sealing the corpses of the monks and warriors one by one, and then put them into a high-quality storage bag, which was instantly filled to the brim.
Through the array control token, he already knew that some people had opened a gap with the array-breaking talisman and tried to escape from this hunting ground.
However, Qingchen was not in a hurry, but a strange smile appeared on his face.
"Outside the island, there is a second-level high-quality 'Three Lives Mystery Array' trapped island array given by the sect." Qingchen muttered to himself, with a cruel light flashing in his eyes,
"All the monks with spiritual power fluctuations in the array will have nowhere to hide in the 'Three Lives Mystery Array'. You, don't even think about escaping!"
After speaking, he waved his hand lightly, and the demon soldiers and resentful ghosts surged out like a tide, forming a formation and chasing after the monks who escaped.
At this moment, he was tightly wrapped by the thick bloody aura, which was the perfect time to continue practicing the fourth level of the Ming Wang Sutra.
Time was running out, and he couldn't delay too long.
Qingchen silently recited the "Ming Wang Sutra" in his heart, urging his consciousness and magic power.
The resentment and blood in the city gathered towards him as if summoned.
He endured the severe pain in his body, and used his magic power to continuously refine and compress the resentment and blood until they turned into drops of crystal clear blood-colored liquid.
These liquids contained the resentment and bloody essence of the city, which was a treasure necessary for practicing the "Ming Wang Sutra".
Qingchen used a good jade bottle to collect them one by one, which was enough for him to practice the fourth level of the "Ming Wang Sutra" to the peak.
By then, the power of the evil armor would surely double.
At the same time, Xu Buyan, Xu Baichuan and others fled all the way and finally arrived at the border of Yinhu Island.
They were fully expecting to escape from this horrific massacre, but unexpectedly, the suddenly clear scene in front of them did not bring relief, but more despair.
"This is Ningxuan Sect... the second-level upper-grade 'Three Lives Mystery Formation'!"
The Xu family's foundation-building elder, Xu Buyan, looked at the seemingly boundless, misty and strange formation in front of him, and his face turned pale instantly.
He knew very well how powerful this formation was. Even if a cultivator in the middle and late stages of foundation building was trapped in it, it would be extremely difficult to find a way out.
What's more, they are now seriously depleted of mana, in poor condition, and he is also seriously injured.
"How could this happen..." Xu Baichuan murmured, and hope in his eyes gradually extinguished.
He finally escaped from the small five-element inversion trap, and thought he could regain his freedom, but he didn't expect that what was waiting for them was another more terrifying cage.
Xu Baichuan's eyes were red, as if they were about to bleed.
He stared at the seemingly endless mist in front of him, and his heart was filled with unspeakable despair.
Today should have been his wedding night, a day of joy and happiness, and the moment for him, as the best of the young generation of the Xu family, to step onto the peak of Blackwood Island.
However, all these beautiful things turned into bubbles under the butcher knife of the thief.
"Why... why did it turn out like this!" Xu Baichuan completely lost his composure and roared.
However, no one cared about him at this moment.
Because behind him, three hundred demon soldiers and thousands of resentful ghosts had formed a formation, rolling in like a black torrent.
Contrary to his usual behavior, Xu Buyan actually stood in front of everyone.
There was no fear in his eyes, only the will to fight.
"Since it's already a dead end, then I, Xu Buyan, will use this last bit of strength to break a few of your teeth!"
Xu Buyan shouted angrily, and the mana in his body surged out like a volcanic eruption.
Fine bloodstains oozed out of his body, which was the result of forcibly activating the secret method after being seriously injured!
Xu Buyan seemed to be wrapped in a layer of golden light, which was a symbol of the "Heavenly Cicada Art" being activated to the extreme.
A huge golden four-winged cicada appeared behind him, and the flapping of its wings brought about violent waves.
"Cicada silk, come out!"
Xu Buyan shouted, and countless hair-thin but tough golden threads were ejected from the mouth of the golden cicada.
These threads intertwined in the air to form a dense net, heading towards the charging demon soldiers and ghosts.
Those white-bone demon soldiers, holding bone knives, gathered their strength under the battle formation, and each blow was enough to split mountains and rocks.
However, when their bone knives chopped on the net woven by the cicada silk, they could not only not move forward, but were entangled by the golden threads and could not move.
The cicada silk is the essence of the cicada art, not only is it extremely sharp, but it also contains strange stickiness.
Once attached, it is difficult to break free unless the strength exceeds Xu Buyan.
"Humph, a mere white-bone demon soldier is worthy of being an enemy of me, Xu Buyan?" Xu Buyan laughed as blood oozed from the corners of his eyes and mouth.
He clasped his hands together, and the golden cicada phantom emitted a deafening cicada cry.
Then, all the demon soldiers and ghosts entangled by the cicada silk began to be tightened by the golden silk little by little, making a shrill friction sound!
For a moment, many demon soldiers were directly strangled into broken bones, and the ghosts turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated.
Suddenly, the white bone demon soldiers in the battle formation began to change. They threw away their bone knives and merged into one, transforming into huge white bone beasts.
These beasts spewed black mist from their mouths and pounced on Xu Buyan.
Facing this change in the battle formation, Xu Buyan frowned, and the wings of the golden cicada phantom flapped more violently.
"Break the cicada howling wind for me!"
Xu Buyan shouted loudly, and the golden cicada let out a deafening roar.
Then, an unprecedented strong storm surged out of Xu Buyan's body, colliding with the white bone beast and the resentful ghosts that rushed over, blowing them to pieces in an instant.
However, this attack also exhausted Xu Buyan's last strength.
But he did kill more than ten demon soldiers and dozens of resentful ghosts, but he was still seriously injured.
You must know that after Qingchen upgraded the magic banner to a top-grade spiritual weapon, the strength of all demon soldiers was not weaker than the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining.
Moreover, the white bone beast formed by the combination of white bone demon soldiers has the power of the peak of Qi Refining.
At this moment, Xu Buyan's body trembled violently, and blood flowed from the wound.
Under the serious injury, the backlash of forcibly activating the "Heavenly Cicada Art" made his injuries more serious.
His vitality was rapidly fading, and he was almost exhausted.
"Ningxuan Sect, although I die today, the Xu family will not perish! One day, someone will kill you, the evil villain, and someone will destroy the Ningxuan Sect!"
At the same time, on the other side, Xu Baichuan saw that his fourth uncle Xu Buyan was leading the way and was besieged by countless demon soldiers and resentful ghosts, unable to escape.
The fear in Xu Baichuan's heart washed away his rationality.
He kept muttering "Yinhu Island is dead, Yinhu Island is dead" in his mouth, with empty eyes.
Suddenly, Xu Baichuan's legs softened and he knelt on the ground involuntarily.
