"Tsk-Tsk!"

As the sword was brandished, violent winds began to howl in the surroundings. A dozen wind dragons whizzed from behind as they converged at the sword tip before silently whizzing to the front, binding eight enemies.

When these eight individuals saw Jiang Yi executing the Wind Shadow Sword, they instantly retreated with fear. Right now, their bodies couldn"t move an inch and could only witness the Black Scale Sword slashing down.

"Pong, Pong, Pong…!"

The Black Scale Sword turned into a dragon drawing across their bodies, having their waists severed. Until the moment of death, they still couldn"t move an inch.

"Ss, ss…"

A gasping voice echoed while Yun He"s eyes were filled with nothing but malicious expression. He watched Jiang Yi bursting forward without a match while his Black Scale Sword slashed at everything. The combination of the Ma.s.sacre Intent and Wind Shadow Sword was basically a machine that was used to claim lives. He even had the Devil Sky Silk which could be used at crucial moments for defense. Right now, these martial artists who numbered around a thousand couldn"t give Jiang Yi any form of pressure.

"The dao pattern attack is truly savage. This Jiang Yi cannot be left alive; otherwise, in another ten years, he would become another Jiang Bieli in the Divine Martial Kingdom!" Yun He let out a sigh while his eyes had nothing but a bewildered expression—as he couldn"t fathom how Jiang Yi, who had such a low cultivation level, was actually able to comprehend the dao pattern attack.

"Wind Shadow Sword?"

Shui Qianrou"s beautiful eyes were filled with doubt as well. She tilted her head and muttered, "My mother mentioned that the Wind Shadow Sword the first martial skill created by the Old Man Zhuge back in the days, and it should only be an earth-tier superior-grade martial skill which uses the formless wind to hinder the enemy. Why did it become a martial skill that could bind the enemy when it is in the hands of Jiang Yi? Such a horrifying martial skill isn"t just of earth-tier superior-grade. Only a heaven-tier martial skill can attack using the dao pattern."

"It is useless to continue debating. Qianrou, ask your people to move out! I will also send out all my men! If we don"t kill this Jiang Yi, he will definitely become a nightmare for our future." Yun He turned around and gave hand gesture to the people behind him. Shui Qianrou nodded and shouted out delicately, "Everyone, advance and use the Water Moon Formation to trap Jiang Yi."

"Young Lady!"

The females from the Water Moon Observatory had this anxious expression. This Water Moon Formation was a strange formation developed by Shui Youlan, and it wouldn"t be a problem to trap Jiang Yi. Once they were away, no one would be able to protect Shui Qianrou; and if anything was to happen, they wouldn"t have enough heads for Shui Youlan to chop off.

Shui Qianrou lifted her shapely eyebrows and spoke furiously, "What kind of nonsense are you going to say? If you aren"t going to make a move now, then when? Are you waiting for Jiang Yi to kill everyone here and then come kill us? If you aren"t going to do it, I will have to do it myself."

"Go!"

The fifty females gritted their teeth and pointed with their jade toes, fluttering ahead like fifty green b.u.t.terflies. Their bodies were glowing with green light as they interwove to both sides and surrounded Jiang Yi. These fifty individuals were moving in a very strange manner; and if one was to view it from the top, they would be able to clearly see them forming a hexagram—with Jiang Yi in the center.

"Water Moon Formation!"

One of them let out a delicate yell, and all fifty of their green dresses glowed within an instant. A pale green light linked all fifty of them before fifty curved saber lights were released at Jiang Yi concurrently with shocking power.

"The h.e.l.l!"

Jiang Yi initially wanted to release the Wind Shadow Sword but was interrupted by these ruthless ladies. Right now, he had no choice but to wrap himself in the Devil Sky Silk into a human dumpling.

"Pong, Pong, Pong…!"

With the Water Moon Formation, the fifty of them had a drastic increase in strength. Previously when Jiang Yi used the Devil Sky Silk to block essence force attacks, he wouldn"t feel any shock waves when he was inside. Right now, he could feel countless fists punching on his body, making his blood boil and forcing out a mouthful of fresh blood.

This won"t do! If this carried on, the Devil Sky Silk is going to be destroyed! These ladies from the Water Moon Observatory are too ferocious…

After blocking the first wave of attacks, Jiang Yi didn"t dare to use the Devil Sky Silk anymore. If the Devil Sky Silk was ruined, he would die even more miserably.

After calculating the time, midnight was arriving soon!

He gritted his teeth and constantly released the Earth Fire, covering a ten-foot radius of himself with Earth Fire. As he moved rapidly, he would continuously send out palm forces while trying to kill a few of the Water Moon Observatory"s ladies in order to break their Water Moon Formation.

"Change formation!"

A lady let out another delicate shout, which indicated for all the ladies to shift and move while surrounding Jiang Yi, unceasingly releasing those curved saber lights. Their shifting speed might be fast, but there wasn"t a hint of chaos in the formation, which always placed Jiang Yi in the center.

"Pong-Pong!"

The countless saber lights that shot at the Earth Fire would cause some of it to spill out and burn the surface of the ground. Jiang Yi was moving rapidly, but his speed was too slow compared to the ladies.

Jiang Yi could only look on helplessly as the ladies from the Water Moon Observatory unceasingly release their essence force to use up his Earth Fire. He didn"t dare to even stop for a moment; once the Earth Fire ceased to block those essence force attacks, he would be promptly turned into minced meat.

If this carries on, I am a goner. I am not going to make it to midnight. Jiang Yi was feeling anxious in his heart. With the current situation, he didn"t have any other methods and could only continue to endure.

The situation on the other side was also very desperate. Zhan Wushuang was carrying Yun Fei while running for their lives. Had it not been for Zhan Wushuang, Yun Fei would probably be dead as Zhan Wushuang blocked at least dozens of attacks for her.

Of course… without the support from Yun Fei"s sorcery, Zhan Wushuang"s special energy would have been exhausted. Without the Battle G.o.d Glory Light, even his tough flesh couldn"t withstand the essence force attacks.

"Yun Fei, escape underground! I will hold them back for a moment!"

When Zhan Wushuang saw dozens of figures rapidly approaching them from the left, he clenched his teeth and yelled out. Yun Fei"s body quickly glowed with yellow light as an underground tunnel appeared below while she fell into it. Before Zhan Wushuang could rush ahead, she released a vine that pulled him down.

"Tsk-Tsk!"

Tree roots from the surround shifted over and intertwined at where they were at, forming a wooden cage that enveloped both of them. Layers covered over layers—until there were at least seven or eight layers.

Zhan Wushuang was suddenly anxious as he spoke, "Yun Fei, are you crazy? You are digging your own grave. What if Shui Qianrou launches the World-Extinguishing Silver Necklace over here? Wouldn"t both of us die here?"

Yun Fei let out a faint smile, extending her arms to hug Zhan Wushuang"s tiger waist and spoke with a gentle tone, "If we die, then so be it. No matter the case, I will not escape alone. If the heavens want us to die, Yun Fei will be satisfied to die together with you."

"Sigh… you silly woman."

Zhan Wushuang let out a deep sigh and didn"t say anything else. He looked over at Jiang Yi"s direction with worry and said with a heavy tone, "There is still 30 minutes before midnight. I wonder how Jiang Yi is doing."

"Ke-Ke!"

Yun Fei let out a peal of bleak laughter. "If he cannot hold on, then we will just die along with him."

Yun Fei was right. If Jiang Yi couldn"t hold on and got killed, the two of them didn"t have any way to escape after digging this grave. Thirty minutes was more than enough time for Shui Qianrou to use the World-Extinguishing Silver Necklace to break these tree roots and smash them to death.

With Soul Travel Realm martial experts below and above the surface—and Zhan Wushuang"s energy had been depleted, they truly had nowhere to escape to.
