Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 44 Melee and Breakthrough
Upon seeing this, Xiao Qianjue's expression turned extremely ugly.
They were already at a disadvantage because they had fallen into this formation, and now that the person from the Star River Sword Sect had been ambushed and killed by Heng Ru, the current situation was beyond their expectations.
Especially since the other side had four Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivators, while although they had more people on their side, their only true top-tier combat power was him.
Moreover, among the remaining people, there are likely their own people. Given this atmosphere of fear and defensiveness, it would be absolutely unwise to confront these people head-on.
Upon seeing the green-robed man before them, the cultivators from the five major sects were all enraged, especially the disciples of the Bamboo Mountain Sect. They never expected that Senior Brother Hengru was actually a spy from the demonic path, which was hard for them to accept for a moment.
At this moment, everyone present kept a certain distance, warily watching their surroundings, fearing that the same thing that happened to the woman in palace attire would happen to them.
Xiao Qianjue knew in his heart that their situation was hopeless at this moment, and they could only try to find an opportunity to break through, otherwise they would only face death.
As for those swords, take as many as you can; there's no time to worry about anything else now.
Thinking of this, Xiao Qianqian shouted loudly, flicked his sleeves, and a huge suction force suddenly burst out, taking in a small portion of the flying swords. Then, he flipped his palm, and a bead shrouded in purple energy flew out, heading straight for the array light screen that enveloped the surroundings.
"Fellow Daoists of the Five Major Sects, please lend me a hand! Let's break through this encirclement!"
Seeing that the Thunderous Beads had no effect, Xiao Qianjue's expression turned solemn. After taking a few pills to replenish his spiritual energy, he summoned the Heaven-Slaying Sword, a talisman treasure. With the support of more than a dozen cultivators from the five major sects, it transformed into a golden giant sword over ten feet long and struck the light screen fiercely.
Seeing this, the demonic cultivators hidden in the crowd could no longer hold back. They unleashed a barrage of supernatural powers and spells, causing chaos in the arena. Heart-wrenching screams echoed everywhere, and more than a dozen late-stage Qi Refining cultivators perished in a short time.
"Seize the sword first!"
Hengru shouted and charged towards the Blood Demon Sword, but was surrounded by the five major sects and many cultivators. In his haste, he could only pick up a few broken swords from the outer edge and retreat abruptly.
At this moment, the great formation that enveloped the surroundings was broken, the feeling of stagnation in the magical power gradually dissipated, terrifying ripples spread out, and a large amount of blood clouds covered the entire platform, making it impossible to see clearly.
Seeing the formation broken, the demonic cultivators licked their lips and rushed into the blood cloud, beginning their slaughter.
"go!"
After forcing back several people in succession, Xiao Qianjue shouted and led his men to charge towards the three weakest points in the defense.
"Want to leave? It's not that easy!"
"Hand over the sword!"
Xueyan snorted coldly, his body surrounded by blood energy. The blood sword behind him trembled violently, and strange blood-colored runes crawled all over the sword, as dense as blood vessels, stretching and writhing, looking particularly eerie.
The blood sword moved with lightning speed, carrying immense power. After weaving through the crowd several times, it slashed towards Xiao Qianjue's back.
Xiao Qianjue's face was cold, and blood dripped down his forehead.
With a quick hand gesture, his body shone with golden light, and he spat out a golden beam of light, striking the oncoming blood sword.
The two spells exploded in the air, scattering the surrounding blood clouds.
Soul Nine and the Evil Taoist had no time to spare at the moment. They were currently around the Blood Demon Sword, making strange hand seals, as if searching for something.
"good chance!"
Seeing this, Xiao Qianjue did not hesitate and immediately led the remaining disciples to break through the encirclement, running wildly along the thick iron chains.
Heng Ru sneered upon seeing this, and a flash of dark green light appeared in his hand. Dense vines had inexplicably grown on Xiao Qianjue and the others.
The vines and iron chains intertwined, trapping the remaining dozen or so cultivators from the five major sects to their deaths.
Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Li Huo Sect immediately activated their fire-igniting spell, causing a layer of blazing red light to emanate from their bodies, breaking away the vines that were wrapped around them.
Xiao Qianjue also shouted loudly, and sharp sword energy burst out from his body, cutting the surrounding vines to shreds.
The remaining rogue cultivators also took this opportunity to escape along the iron chains, but at the end of the chains, they were ambushed by the demonic cultivators who were lying in ambush and fell into the giant pit.
"So, did you find the sword?"
Seeing this, Hengru raised an eyebrow and instead of chasing after Xiao Qianjue and the others who were fleeing, she came to the side of Hun Jiu and the others and asked them questions.
Hun Jiu held a piece of black jade in his hand, without saying a word.
"Chase!"
After saying that, a fierce look flashed across Hengru's face.
He knew very well that the sword should be in Xiao Qianjue's hands at this moment, and if he could find it, it would be a great achievement.
Thinking about the benefits of completing the task, Hengru couldn't help but feel excited.
Hun Jiu and the others exchanged glances and grabbed Heng Ru, who was about to give chase.
What do you all mean by this?
Hengru's expression turned cold, and she spoke indifferently, her face full of displeasure.
“That kid Xiao Qianjue is quite powerful. In your current state, you might not be his match. Why don’t you leave him to us and go after those rogue cultivators?” Hun Jiu chuckled and said.
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Hengru, the previous battle took a heavy toll on you, and you are no longer suitable to continue such an important pursuit mission. Rest assured, we will definitely retrieve that sword. As for your contribution, we will tell you the truth."
The evil Taoist priest wore a forced smile, his gaze fixed on the man in the green robe before him, a faint glint of spiritual light flickering in his eyes.
Xue Yan, who was standing to the side, did not speak, but took a step forward and chased after Xiao Qianjue.
Seeing this, Hun Jiu and the Evil Taoist laughed a few times, patted Heng Ru on the shoulder, and transformed into two streaks of blood light, speeding away along the thick iron chain.
Heng stood there, his face extremely gloomy.
Hengru knew exactly what these people were thinking; they just wanted one less person to take all the credit.
These people's actions completely disregarded his own people.
Given his current state, if a fight were to break out, he would be no match for him, so he could only swallow his pride and suffer in silence.
Thinking of this, a fierce glint flashed in Hengru's eyes, and she secretly vowed not to let him catch her, otherwise she would make the two of them wish they were dead!
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and chase after them!"
Hengru glanced at the group of people who were standing there in a daze, and said in a cold voice.
After saying that, he took the lead and chased after her.
Seeing this, the group dared not be careless and quickly followed.
However, none of them noticed that deep beneath the rocky edge, a very subtle aura was lurking.
After everyone left, the aura slowly moved upwards, and a figure gradually appeared in the hazy blue light.
This person had an ordinary appearance and dark skin. Under the four-colored light surrounding his body, he showed no trace of aura.
This person was none other than Han Li, who had been hiding for a long time.
He had witnessed everything that had just happened. He never imagined that simply exploring the ruins of the Imperial Sword Sect, which had been in decline for a thousand years, would draw him into the conflict between the righteous and demonic paths.
Clearly, the main purpose of the demonic path's operation this time was not to annihilate those Qi Refining stage cultivators, but to search for something. Otherwise, even if the person from the Golden Phoenix Sword Sect was strong, the four Qi Refining Grand Perfection cultivators of the demonic path would not have been able to break through the encirclement of four powerful individuals.
But what exactly are these people looking for? Why are they making such a big fuss, even going so far as to expose a pawn they've kept hidden for years? There must be some secret hidden behind this.
Although Han Li was curious, he knew very well that with his late-stage Qi Refining cultivation, he probably couldn't get involved and might even lose his life.
Thinking of this, Han Li shook his head and sighed inwardly. With a flash of light as he made a hand seal, he used the Earth Escape Technique to quickly leave. Right now, he just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible and didn't want to get involved in this mess.
But something he never expected happened.
