The crowd surged forward in succession, madly rushing into the Formation, turning into bursts of blood mist as they exploded, while inside the Formation, there were ghostly wails and wolves’ howls as flesh and blood were scattered in all directions.
One by one, Space Rings fell off, and Li Xiaobai nodded with satisfaction. With a flick of his wrist, another longsword appeared in his hand, which he casually swung at the cultivators inside the Formation who were desperately trying to break it and flee.
In an instant, the cultivators inside the Formation moved towards Li Xiaobai, rushing at him. Their bodies left the safe zone and were turned into a pulp by the Formation’s forces.
A few cultivators at the edge of the movement technique looked hard at the Formation’s slaughter, forcibly breaking through the Formation at the cost of severe injuries to themselves.
But Li Xiaobai didn’t take these people seriously, as it would be the same when he went to the seventh Formation to reap the harvest.
These Formations were simply natural killing machines, combined with his Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch, they were an unsolvable existence. He only needed to control the opponent, and the rest was left to the Formation to handle.
After just a few minutes, the Formation turned into a domain of death.
Li Xiaobai still collected all the Space Rings scattered on the ground, his personal treasure trove grew more and more substantial. With a few more waves like this, the cost of purchasing Godzilla could be recouped.
Every Trap Formation had a core. Li Xiaobai didn’t know what a core was, and casually destroyed whatever items in the Formation seemed important, occasionally sucking up pieces of Flesh Mountain into the vacuum cleaner.
After his operations, the Formation’s imposing chaos decreased significantly. Li Xiaobai wiped off his sweat, quite pleased with the results of his efforts.
Causing trouble for the Array Formation Sect had always been something he had spared no effort in doing.
At the same time, within the fourth Formation, several black-robed figures slowly retreated in horrified silence, careful not to attract the attention of the fierce man in front.
“Did we see that right, this person is Li Xiaobai?”
“Indeed, Li Xiaobai, the cultivator from the Northern Region. It must be him who took the fragment from Liu Mang of the Northern Region branch!”
“The fragment must still be in his possession. According to the news from headquarters, all the fragments in the Northern Region disappeared without a trace, and even those from the Thousand Buddha Temple of the Western Desert are gone. All these places have traces of Li Xiaobai’s visits. It’s no wild guess that he took them.”
“He’s headed to the depths of the Formation, and the fragments within the Array Formation Sect are likely to be taken by him too. Should we request reinforcements?”
“No need. The cultivators who can stop Li Xiaobai are few and far between. Rarely do we get a bead on his exact whereabouts; we must report to the sect immediately and let that person decide!”
“What about the Three Sects? Should we first ensure that Li Xiaobai can leave safely?”
“No need. The Three Sects are just emerging powers, lacking in depth. They cannot hold onto Li Xiaobai. Our only concern is to report back; if Li Xiaobai is captured by the Three Sects, even better, as that person can simply demand his surrender then!”
“Alright, let’s go!”
After a quick discussion, the black-robed figures turned and disappeared into the Formation.
Before the seventh Formation.
The cultivators were on high alert, their deadliness undisguised.
The cultivators who had escaped from the sixth Formation had already informed everyone of the situation inside. Demon Sword Li Xiaobai was making a comeback at the Three Sects, bypassing the three Sect Masters and appearing directly in the Array Formation Sect’s trial grounds. Countless cultivators had already fallen under his sword.
Soon it would be their turn. At this very moment, even those who had passed through six Formations and considered themselves exceptional talents, felt a slight trepidation in their hearts. After all, they were facing a fierce man who could traverse deadly Formations. These flowers raised in a greenhouse seemed to lack confidence.
“He’s coming out!”
“Don’t panic, I’ve already informed the Sect Master with a Secret Technique. They’ll arrive soon!”
“`
“Not bad, with so many of us here, quite a few are masters of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, we simply don’t believe we can’t take down a Li Xiaobai!”
“Be sure to seize the right moment, and we must launch an attack immediately, we can’t let him use that paralyzing Demon Sword!”
From within the Formation, a shadow slowly emerged. The cultivators stirred, their internal cultivation techniques running wildly, spiritual power fluctuations sweeping across as they boldly made their move towards Li Xiaobai.
Chains filled with explosive energy danced in the sky, firmly trapping Li Xiaobai within their grasp.
Feeling the overwhelming attacks, the corners of Li Xiaobai’s mouth curved up unconsciously. The number of cultivators before the seventh Formation was small, clearly diminished, with only about twenty or thirty people.
However, in contrast, these were truly elite cultivators, each one of them possessed a remarkable cultivation level.
[Attribute Points +1000…]
[Attribute Points +2000…]
[Attribute Points +3000…]
[Attribute Points: 50,000.]
All points to defense!
Defensive Power: [Flesh Becoming Sanctified (950,000/1,000,000) can advance.]
Just lacking the final fifty thousand attribute points to advance to the next stage, Li Xiaobai’s heart felt a little excited, with another advance in defensive power, there would be very few in this world that could threaten him, and he could almost start walking sideways.
“Quick, he’s bound!”
“Hurry up and suppress this man, don’t hold back anymore, bring out your real skill!”
“Demon Sword Li Xiaobai, who would have thought you’d have a day like this!”
“Accept your death!”
The cultivators erupted upon seeing that Li Xiaobai had really been bound, each one attacking frantically as if injected with adrenaline. Li Xiaobai looked quite comfortable—this was the feeling, just a bit more, and he would become invincible!
He casually summoned the Hellfire and attached it to the chains that bound him, which burned fiercely.
After some time nurturing it, the Hellfire was now about the size of a fist. Though it still hadn’t much power, it had passed its weakest stage and was no longer something that might extinguish at any moment.
At the same time, a new line of small text appeared on the system panel.
[Hellfire (Divine Level Skill) Current Status: Attached to right arm (10/100) can advance.]
This must be the official activation of the Hellfire skill, like his defensive power, capable of continuous advancement, though this thing needed to devour items to advance. Now in its seedling stage, it could only attach to his right arm, requiring only some ordinary Spirit Grass and Spiritual Medicine to be satisfied.
As the flame grew later on, it would likely begin to spread over his entire body and even outward, at which point, even top-quality Spirit Stones might not be enough to satisfy its consumption, a bit of a money burner indeed.
Seeing the sudden appearance of a weird black flame in Li Xiaobai’s hand, the many cultivators all tightened their hearts, and the force of their attacks increased a bit more. Although they didn’t feel threatened by the flame, they instinctively sensed something was amiss.
Li Xiaobai calculated the time. The three Sect Masters should have already received the message and would soon be on their way. He didn’t have time to continue to drag things out here.
He casually activated Reflect and gave the cultivators a slight smile, “The game is over!”
