Chapter 261 - Injuries



Chapter 261 – Injuries

The moment the array started to shake, he already knew what was happening. This was because after cultivators who were far stronger than him were trapped in the array, they would have immediately chosen to attack the array, causing the array to go out of control. If not for Yang Junshan controlling it with all his might, the array would probably have crumbled from the shock earlier, but even so, he was still struck by the backlash of the array, and the spirit energy in his body was roiling and injuring his internal organs.

And other than the cultivators at the late stage of martial arts realm, Yang Junshan did not think that anyone else would have the ability to retaliate under the disturbance of the magnetic light.

Originally, Yang Junshan thought that with his own strength, he would be able to endure the magnetic light Great Formation for a whole incense’s time. During this period of time, Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side and three small teams could completely reverse the situation where the enemy was stronger than him.

However, all of his speculations were based on the other cultivators’ ignorance towards formations and their fear towards the mysterious array masters, so he neglected to think that the six late stage martial arts realm cultivators were originally Inner Disciples from Sirius Gate or Sirius Gate. Perhaps they did not know about formations, and felt that the formation masters were also mysterious and unfamiliar, but this did not mean that they did not know how to deal with formations.

With Yang Junshan’s guidance, they held the absolute advantage from the start. From time to time, the painful cries of cultivators before their deaths could be heard from within the formation, and the majority of them were cultivators from the Sirius Gate and the Opening Spirit School’s side.

Originally, for Yang Junshan, this was the perfect time to harvest the human head contribution points. Compared to the other cultivators on the side of the Heaven-Shaken Sect who needed to be guided by the formation, Yang Junshan could do whatever he wanted with a single glance. Furthermore, with the Snake-Necked Bow in his hand, he could easily kill anyone effectively.

However, the formation suffered heavy injuries from the very start of it’s activation, so Yang Junshan could only focus all of his energy on maintaining the formation’s circulation, doing his utmost to delay the collapse of the formation, so as to buy more time for his own side.

Another muffled sound rang. This time, the attack did not come from the inside of the formation, but from outside, the leader who had escaped when the formation was activated, finally started to attack the magnetic light Formation after a series of cautious attempts. This made it harder and harder for Yang Junshan to control the formation.

Although Yang Junshan’s array kept on using the magnetic light to disturb the cultivators that were trapped, but there were too many cultivators trapped, so the array formation’s might was not too strong. Most of the time, the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side of the array used the array to hide and kill the cultivators that were trapped, and most of the time, the array formation relied on the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side of the array to cause damage to the enemies.

Xiong Xiiliang’s luck was good, as the Heaven-Shaken Sect was only second to the three groups, with the help of the concealment of the array formation, there were already two cultivators of the same cultivation level who were injured by his sneak attack, then killed by him. With the two heads in hand, and the amount he had accumulated previously, he now had five heads of battle merits in his hands, which could be exchanged for a low-grade magic tool.

This made Xiong Xi even more excited. Although it was joyful to be able to obtain an additional low rank magic tool, more importantly, it could allow him to gain an advantage when competing with the other three generations of the Xiong Family.

Because the most outstanding successor of the third generation, Xiong Xiying, had become the direct disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, if everything went smoothly, he would definitely no longer be able to take over the position of the Xiong Family.

Just then, Xiong Xi Liang followed the stone talisman that Yang Junshan had created with the broken Primary Magnetic Essence Stone. Wherever it went, the magnetic light that was swimming in the air all disappeared, and after a few steps, the silhouette of another Opening Spirit School cultivator appeared.

The man looked like he had gone mad, he smashed the magic tools in his hands randomly at the surroundings of the array, many spells and even spirit arts were continuously being used, the surrounding ground was in a mess, and even the magnetic light around him seemed to have been scattered by him.

This person was none other than the late stage martial arts realm cultivator, Zheng Qingyuan, who led the Opening Spirit School team earlier. When Xiong Xiliang saw this person, he was moved, this person was currently bewitched by Yang Junshan’s formation, and had his vision blocked. If he took the chance to sneak an attack, would he be able to jump levels to kill a late stage martial arts realm cultivator?

As this thought appeared in his mind, Xiong Xiliang felt his entire body brimming with excitement. He had always been conceited about his strength. If he was able to successfully injure this person in a sneak attack, he had a great deal of confidence in being able to kill him.

The more Xiong Xiliang thought about it, the more excited he became. Even if he lost, he was confident in borrowing the concealment of the array formations to retreat. Thinking to this point, he could not help but exclaim: This Xishan Village’s array formation is indeed something, no wonder his clan’s clan younger brother who specializes in the art of array formations also lost to this man.

If he was allowed to grow, in the future, it would be difficult to ensure that he would not becomuge threat to the Xiong Family. He could only use this opportunity to take revenge, and if he was not able to be of use to the clan, then it would be best to eliminate him before he had grown.

However, he did not forget the human head meritorious service in front of him, and with the help of the magnetic light’s concealment, he circled around Zheng Qinyuan, waiting for the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Finally, after Zheng Qingyuan unleashed his seemingly aimless supernatural power, he finally felt the spiritual energy in his body run out by more than half and had to temporarily stop to take a breather. At this time, his back was facing Xiong Xiliang, and he had no idea that the crisis was behind him.

A good chance!

At the same time, he also jumped out from the magnetic light, quickly approaching Zheng Qingyuan’s location. Xiong Xiliang was very clear on the power of the late stage Martial Realm Cultivator, the moment he succeeded in his sneak attack, he had to attack brazenly, otherwise, if he gave his opponent a chance to catch his breath, it would be extremely difficult for him to kill another late stage martial arts realm cultivator.

Zheng Qingyuan had already noticed Xiong Xiliang jump out from the magnetic light, but when he turned around, the other party’s magical equipment was already less than ten meters away from him.

Zheng Qingyuan was immediately scared out of his wits. Fortunately, he was an inner disciple of the Opening Spirit School, so he naturally had a life-saving treasure on him. A jade belt on his waist burst open and a milky white spirit light spread out like a water curtain in front of him.

However, Xiong Xiliang’s attack was not something that could be easily blocked with a jade talisman. His short sword instantly released a sharp sword light that was a foot long, this was the Xiong Family’s Spirit Art that Xiong Xiiliang painstakingly learned!

The milky-white water curtain formed a violent ripple and was immediately shattered. However, Zheng Qingyuan also took the opportunity to evade his vital parts. The light from the retractable spirit art pierced through his ribs, causing him to instantly suffer heavy injuries.

Xiong Xiliang, who had rushed over, was overjoyed. Reaching out his hand, the short sword drew a beautiful arc in the air, directly attacking the center of Zheng Qingyuan’s back. With a clang, Zheng Qingyuan, who had just reacted, also sent the flying dagger flying.

The Spiritual Qi within Zheng Qingyuan’s body was in turmoil. He had no choice but to take two steps back to stabilize his body. On the other hand, Zheng Qingyuan spat out a mouthful of blood with a “Wow” sound.

He was extremely intelligent and did not want to fight to the death with Zheng Qingyuan, who was desperately fighting for his life. After the sneak attack just now, he had a clear estimate of Zheng Qingyuan’s strength, even though Zheng Qingyuan still had the strength to fight back, but the injuries on his ribs were wearing down his strength. At this time, he only needed to hide in the array and wait for Zheng Qingyuan to die.

Xiong Xiliang gripped the magnetic jade talisman tightly, and with a sweep of the magnetic light, Xiong Xiliang had already jumped into the formation, disappearing withourace, leaving behind Zheng Qingyuan’s angry roar and the ravaging of his spiritual arts within the formation space.

However, an unbelievable scene appeared at this time. Just as Zheng Qingyuan once again released the spirit art ability that he had stored up as a counterattack, for no reason at all, the formation that Yang Junshan had been trying his best to maintain finally surpassed the critical point of collapse. The magnetic light that was originally circling in the array space instantly collapsed, and the entire formation instantly collapsed.

Xiong Xiiliang, who was waiting for an opportunity to ambush Zheng Qingyuan, was instantly exposed as he stared dumbstruck at Zheng Qingyuan, whose eyes were intertwined with death and hostility.

“If you want my life, then die with me!”

His entire right lung had been twisted into shreds by the sword light, and there was almost no chance for him to survive. However, his final strike had caused Xiong Xiliang to be unable to defend against it, and the magical equipment in his hands had been broken in an instant. His entire body was sent flying, and before he could even land on the ground, blood spurted out of his mouth along with his shattered internal organs.

He must have done it on purpose!

As he was about to die, Xiong Xiliang seemed to see a familiar ray of light shooting towards him from afar. Zheng Qingyuan, who was already on the verge of collapsing after a desperate attack, was instantly pierced through by the ray of light!

This is the Spirit Light Arrow that was shot by the Spirit Tool in Yang Junshan’s hands, he must have let the formation collapse at this moment on purpose, he was the one framing me, he wants to steal my battle achievements!

As Xiong Xiliang’s consciousness gradually sank into the abyss, his mind was filled with these thoughts. He opened his mouth wanting to shout out loud, but amidst the delicious sounds, it was like a broken bellows, “ho ho”, until he completely fell to the ground without a sound. However, his eyes never closed, and the stiff expression on his face seemed to express unwillingness and anger.

Yang Junshan who was in the distance could barely put down the Snake-Necked Bow in his hands. He did not even bother to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth as he ran off without looking back, escaping to the side of the three squads was the safest option!
