Chapter 197.1
Chapter 197.1
Tao Yan understood that he was in danger now, and he could not escape death. But as a veteran powerhouse, he has his own pride.
Even if he dies, he must not die cowardly!
His body shook, and thick black mist spread around from him, gradually covering the entire sky. At this time, if one looked up from the ground, one would see an extremely low dark cloud that had completely covered the entire Wuling City, to the point that the sun could not be seen.
When everyone on the ground saw this scene, they all shook and showed horror on their faces.
The corpses of Jiuyou Generals, who had fallen down before, had already explained the final result of the battle. This means that Tao Yan is now preparing to make the final blow.
No one expected that the once famous Jiuyou Holy Lord would fall here today.
In addition, many people looked at the sky, showing curiosity. They really wanted to know whether the three geniuses who created the Yunjian Pavilion were still as strong as Tao Yan, a veteran Transcend Tribulation realm powerhouse.
At the same time, Xin Ruxiong, who was commanding the Jiuyou Sacred Land disciples to storm Wuling City at the gate, looked at the sky with complicated eyes.
At the beginning of formulating this plan, he had already planned to fail. But when this result appeared in front of him, he still felt unacceptable.
But right now is not the time to think about it.He said without hesitation, “Stop attacking the city! Everyone, retreat immediately!”
The Jiuyou Sacred Land elder who was in charge on the ground couldn’t help but speak, “Give us a little more time, and we will be able to capture Wuling City. Why are we retreating at this time? If we retreat, what about the Holy Lord?”
Xin Ruxiong frowned, and said in a dark tone, “Am I the holy son or are you the holy son? I’m telling you to retreat, are you going to disobey?”
Among the three major Sacred Lands, the status of the holy son and holy maiden is second only to the Holy Lord. Therefore, when Tao Yan was not around, Xin Ruxiong had the final say in Jiuyou Sacred Land.
Although the elder was dissatisfied, he still chose to salute and said, “I will obey the order of the holy son!”
After finishing speaking, he shouted at the attacking Jiuyou Sacred Land disciples: “Everyone, retreat immediately!”
The Jiuyou Sacred Land has a strict hierarchy and prohibitions.
Although many people did not understand why they had to retreat at this time, everyone still chose to execute the order immediately without hesitation.
They put away their siege equipment one after another and retreated to the east in an orderly manner.
Xin Ruxiong, the current holy son, was the last to leave.
Before leaving, he couldn’t help but turn his head to take one last look at Wuling City.
He really didn’t understand why. They had been attacking for so long, so why is the protective formation of Wuling City still so strong? So how many spirit stones did Feng Shao use to run this city defense formation?
It seemed that if he faced Feng Shao again in the future, he would have to think and plan more carefully.
While the group from Jiuyou Sacred Land was retreating, Lin Fengtian finally fought Tao Yan again.
With full firepower, Tao Yan even burned his own blood essence, improving his strength even more compared to before.
The overwhelming black mist transformed into various weapons, which seemed to be alive, like a beast that attacked Lin Fengtian with its teeth and claws.
But Lin Fengtian is fearless, holding the Yellow Springs Sword, brazenly fighting!
Several hammers with a diameter of at least one meter slammed down on Lin Fengtian, but he just waved his hand, and dozens of dark yellow sword energy came out instantly, meeting the hammers continuously.
There was only a loud bang, and one mist hammer after another was chopped off by the sword energies, causing thick black mist to scatter in all directions.
The black mist that had been split up re-condensed in the air immediately, transforming into several nine-ring machetes seven to eight meters long, and slashed at Lin Fengtian from different angles.
Lin Fengtian’s face sank, and the Yellow Springs Sword shone brightly in his hand.
Before Lin Fengtian could even swing the sword, it condensed into dozens of sword lights out of thin air.
Those sword lights were not simple, they condensed a lot of murderous intent.
Others only need to touch it once, they will be destroyed by the murderous aura of the Yellow Springs Sword and die without a complete body.
Even a strong person in the Transcend Tribulation realm would feel like facing a formidable enemy when faced with such sword light.
As sword light condensed into shape, under Lin Fengtian’s control, it converged into a massive sword. With a sharp swing of this sword, he cut through the black mist covering the sky in one fell swoop!
To Tao Yan, the black mist created by the burning of blood essence is equivalent to an extension of himself. Therefore, Lin Fengtian’s sword was like cutting him with a knife!
The unique murderous intent of the Yellow Springs Sword invaded his body, frantically destroying the vitality in his body. Severe pain spread all over his body and meridians in an instant. It was so unbearable that he couldn’t help but let out a scream.
Lin Fengtian snorted coldly, “Old ghost Tao, your method of burning blood essence is nothing more than foolishness being mistaken for cleverness!”
