Chapter 269: Six Against One, The Second Elder Appears
Seeing Sikong Tingyun and their attack coming towards him, Feng Lie’s expression suddenly turned serious.
The next moment, he suddenly struck out with a palm towards Feng Qingya behind him.
However, the force of the palm was extremely gentle.
It merely sent Feng Qingya’s body back to the Treasure Pavilion.
“Girl, I owe you an apology for the past. This time, you stay here in the Treasure Pavilion and guard it. If things go south, enter the ancestor’s seclusion grounds! There, you will be safe from any threat!”
The Great Elder was perhaps the only person in the entire Feng family who knew the most about the ancestor’s seclusion grounds. He had always had unparalleled confidence in that place.
“Friend Mu, this time, perhaps you’ll have to help this old man watch over things.”
After sending Feng Qingya back to the Treasure Pavilion, the Great Elder’s gaze turned to Mu Lao beside him.
“It is an honor to fight alongside the Great Elder.”
No matter what, Mu Lao felt a deep sense of satisfaction at this moment.Because he saw the Great Elder’s recognition of Feng Qingya.
Although this recognition and remorse came a little late, at least it came.
Mu Lao knew that if today went well, and Feng Qingya and the others were safe, Feng Qingya would surely return to her former position, and even surpass it.
This was already enough to make him look forward to it.
The conversation between the Great Elder and Mu Lao was just a fleeting moment.
Then, the two of them each picked up their weapons and bravely faced the powerful attacks coming towards them.
On the other side, the three major forces and the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators from Yunmeng City bypassed Mu Lao and the Great Elder.
They went straight for the door of the Treasure Pavilion.
Seeing this, a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of the Great Elder’s mouth.
The long spear in his hand suddenly swung, and several spear lights, like dragons, swept towards the attacks of the three Nascent Soul cultivators, Sikong Tingyun and the others.
“Boom boom boom…”
A series of explosions rang out, and Sikong Tingyun and the others’ attacks were immediately shattered by the Great Elder’s spear lights.
Although Nascent Soul late stage and Nascent Soul mid stage were only a small difference in realm, the actual combat power sometimes differed greatly.
Especially for a veteran powerhouse like the Great Elder, who was once renowned, this was even more so.
“Good shot, Soul-Chasing Spear!”
The Great Elder’s counterattack not only shattered Sikong Tingyun and the others’ attacks, but the remaining spear lights also swept towards them.
The Nascent Soul cultivator from Flowing Wind Sword Sect’s eyes gleamed with a hint of excitement, as if seeing prey.
Even though the three of them joined forces, and the Great Elder was powerful, it would take some time for him to subdue them.
After Feng Qingya was sent back to the Treasure Pavilion by the Great Elder, the ten Golden Core late stage protectors of Spirit Sound Valley lost their target.
At this moment, the ten of them surrounded Mu Lao.
Before his breakthrough, Mu Lao’s strength was roughly the same as theirs.
However, it was still somewhat difficult for Mu Lao to defeat these ten Golden Core late stage protectors at this time.
As for the remaining Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators, they headed straight for the Treasure Pavilion.
Their eyes burned with intense desire.
However, the next moment, a dazzling light appeared above the door of the Treasure Pavilion.
A powerful formation condensed, blocking these cultivators outside.
Two Golden Core cultivators suddenly attacked.
Two spells that looked quite powerful slammed into the formation, but they couldn’t shake it at all.
No wonder Feng Lie had that disdainful look earlier.
But thinking about it, the Feng family was one of the four major forces in Yunmeng City, how could it not be defended?
“Everyone, attack together, combine your strength, I want to see how strong this turtle shell of the Feng family is!”
Immediately, a Golden Core late stage cultivator stood at the front as the leader.
The many Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators behind him began to cooperate tacitly.
A wave after wave of spells attacked the door of the Treasure Pavilion.
The entire Treasure Pavilion began to tremble constantly.
However, the formation was not easily broken in a short time.
Feng Lie’s expression grew increasingly gloomy.
Holding his spear, his aura surged, at this moment, he began to take the initiative to attack.
He wanted to defeat Sikong Tingyun and the others with his own strength as quickly as possible.
Just as he made up his mind to take the initiative, the Great Elder’s aura suddenly surged again!
His originally gray hair became even more withered and gray.
His face, which was still ruddy before, suddenly became dry and shriveled.
It was obvious that at this moment, the Great Elder had activated some kind of secret technique that came at the cost of his life force.
He forcibly increased his strength.
He was originally a Nascent Soul late stage cultivator, and this forced increase in strength made him feel like he had reached the Soul Formation stage.
Seeing this scene, Sikong Tingyun and the two Nascent Soul cultivators from Lingxiu Pavilion and Flowing Wind Sword Sect’s expressions changed drastically.
“Be careful!”
The three of them exchanged serious glances.
Then, tacitly, they each took a step back.
Facing Feng Lie in this state, they didn’t want to engage in a direct confrontation.
“Let’s temporarily avoid his edge. His state shouldn’t last long. Once the time limit for this secret technique is up, he will inevitably fall into a period of weakness! That will be his death knell!”
The Nascent Soul cultivator from Flowing Wind Sword Sect said.
Immediately, the three of them increased their vigilance and defense, avoiding direct confrontation with Feng Lie.
Although their realms were slightly lower, escaping wouldn’t be too difficult if they focused on it.
Seeing this, Feng Lie’s eyes narrowed, his gaze shifting to the surrounding Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Since they had reached this point today, he wouldn’t hesitate anymore.
With a single step, Feng Lie strode towards the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion.
Those Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators were still relentlessly bombarding the formation above the door.
Suddenly seeing Feng Lie appear, their expressions were filled with fear.
The next moment, Feng Lie didn’t utter a single word.
With a sweeping motion, his spear flashed, resembling a sharp crescent moon, sweeping across the crowd.
The few Golden Core cultivators and a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators at the front were the first to be hit.
The gap in their realms was too vast.
Almost the instant they were touched, many were bisected by the crescent-shaped spear light and plunged into the lake below.
Seeing this, Sikong Tingyun and the other three Nascent Soul cultivators’ expressions grew even more serious.
They knew this wasn’t a sustainable solution.
If Feng Lie continued his rampage, more than half of the cultivators gathered around the Treasure Pavilion would be killed or injured.
They had no doubt about the destructive power of a Nascent Soul late stage cultivator.
“The two of you, give it your all!
Since our three sects are now in this predicament, there’s no need to hold back anymore,” Sikong Tingyun said to the cultivators from Lingxiu Pavilion and Flowing Wind Sword Sect.
The next moment, Sikong Tingyun took the bamboo flute from his waist and began to play.
The flute’s melody was melodious, but the notes transformed into sound waves that attacked Feng Lie directly.
As his flute music filled the air, a streak of light shot towards them from afar.
Within the light, a Nascent Soul aura emanated.
Grandma Yinhua, another Nascent Soul cultivator from Spirit Sound Valley, had arrived.
Seeing this, the Nascent Soul cultivators from Lingxiu Pavilion and Flowing Wind Sword Sect didn’t hesitate.
The Nascent Soul elder from Flowing Wind Sword Sect drew his swords with both hands, swiftly unleashing two sword beams that crossed, forming a sharp cross.
They shot towards Feng Lie with immense ferocity.
The middle-aged woman from Lingxiu Pavilion pinched a hand seal, and a frost-covered flying sword also shot towards Feng Lie.
The three attacks were all their full power, their might almost comparable to a Nascent Soul late stage cultivator!
As the two cultivators from Flowing Wind Sword Sect and Lingxiu Pavilion made their move, two more streaks of light shot towards them from afar.
These were the other Nascent Soul cultivators from those two factions, who had arrived.
The newcomers didn’t hesitate for a moment and instantly joined the battle.
The situation on the field instantly transformed into a six-against-one battle, with six Nascent Soul cultivators attacking Feng Lie!
With six Nascent Soul cultivators attacking him, Feng Lie could no longer focus on killing the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators.
His expression grew grim and serious.
Even though he had activated a secret technique, he could suppress Sikong Tingyun and the others, but with double the combat power, he was starting to feel the strain.
At this moment, the immense energy around Feng Lie condensed into a shield around him.
The black spear in his hand continued to breathe out spear light.
He gripped the spear butt, using the spear like a staff, and swung it towards Sikong Tingyun’s sound attack.
He used brute force to overcome ten opponents!
With a powerful swing, he scattered all of Sikong Tingyun’s sound notes.
But just as the elder from Flowing Wind Sword Sect’s cross-shaped sword blades approached,
Feng Lie could only parry with his spear, using a move called “Iron Chain Bridge,” holding his spear horizontally in front of him.
He barely managed to block the two sword energies.
But his figure was instantly knocked back ten steps.
Facing the incoming silver needles from Grandma Yinhua and the ice-covered flying sword from the middle-aged woman from Lingxiu Pavilion,
He was starting to feel overwhelmed.
The energy shield around him was instantly pierced by Grandma Yinhua’s silver needles.
The frost-covered flying sword followed closely behind, instantly approaching him.
The sword aimed straight for Feng Lie’s chest.
In a flash, Feng Lie barely managed to twist his body to the left.
The flying sword pierced straight into his right shoulder.
The icy spiritual energy erupted instantly.
Feng Lie’s entire body seemed to be covered in a thin layer of frost.
His agility was greatly reduced!
But at this moment, two more Nascent Soul cultivators who had arrived later were waiting to attack him.
After Sikong Tingyun and the others unleashed their full power, just four attacks had already wounded Feng Lie.
The next two attacks were even more difficult for him to handle.
At this moment, everyone watching from afar held their breath.
“Even if he activates such a secret technique, it’s still too difficult to fight six against one,” Tuoba Junlin muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on the black-robed elder beside him. “After all, these six aren’t ordinary Nascent Souls.”
“But once Feng Lie falls, it will be the turn of the Tuoba family to make a move. There are still many good things in the Feng family’s treasure vault. I don’t want the forces in Yunmeng City to divide them up completely.”
“Rest assured, Young Master!”
On the other side, Yao Changsheng and Vice President Ouyang both sighed.
They couldn’t help in this situation. The interests involved were too great.
Even if the two of them went up, they wouldn’t be able to do anything at the scene. The Feng Baozhao lineage didn’t appear in this situation, which clearly wasn’t just an external threat, but a greater internal crisis.
Even Yao Changsheng couldn’t understand what the Feng Baozhao lineage was trying to do at this crucial moment.
At this point, perhaps all they could do was witness the fall of a major power with their own eyes.
As everyone lamented, the attacks of the other two Nascent Soul cultivators from Flowing Wind Sword Sect and Lingxiu Pavilion had already arrived.
Feng Lie, the Grand Elder, had a solemn expression, with a hint of sigh in his eyes.
But the next moment, the aura around him actually rose again!
In an instant, the aura on Feng Lie surpassed the late Nascent Soul stage.
It reached the genuine Soul Formationy Early Stage!
However, at this moment, Feng Lie’s originally tall and straight figure suddenly became hunched.
The icy power on him instantly dissipated.
The long spear in his hand suddenly slashed towards the two attacks.
The two sword qi that were attacking him were instantly shattered.
At this time, the Grand Elder looked like an old man on the verge of death, but his actions were like a war god!
Although surrounded by six Nascent Souls, he was fearless!
“Isn’t this old guy tired of living?
Even if he doesn’t get killed by Sikong Tingyun and the others, he’ll probably destroy himself by forcing his cultivation to increase like this,”
Tuoba Junlin frowned slightly. Feng Lie’s tenacity was beyond his expectations.
At this moment, a strange premonition arose in his heart.
But this feeling came inexplicably.
After all, even if Feng Lie overdrew his life force again to gain this power, there was no chance of survival.
The situation outside the treasure vault was a spectacle for onlookers, and they would never intervene.
The real players, like the old man Mu, were held back by the ten Golden Core protectors of Spirit Sound Valley.
As for the other Golden Cores and Foundation Establishments, they didn’t dare to approach the treasure vault gate at this time.
After all, who would be willing to risk their lives?
If the Grand Elder went berserk and killed, those Nascent Soul cultivators wouldn’t be so easy to kill, but they were like chickens and dogs waiting to be killed.
The situation seemed to be deadlocked again.
Six Nascent Souls surrounded Feng Lie, and no one dared to make the first move.
Sikong Tingyun and the others knew that if Feng Lie fought back desperately, he could definitely kill at least half of them.
Each of them was hesitant, unwilling to be the unlucky one.
…
While the situation outside the treasure vault was at a standstill, inside the treasure vault, Feng Qingya was extremely angry.
Because when the Grand Elder pushed her into the treasure vault and the gate closed, the Second Elder, Feng Li, who had never appeared, suddenly showed up.
“Miss, you know very well that the reason why the Feng family has fallen to this state is all your fault.
If you had followed the family’s initial arrangements, none of this would have happened, and the family would have been even stronger.
Now, Miss, don’t resist, just follow this old man, and maybe everything can still be reversed.”
As he spoke, Feng Li’s Nascent Soul mid-stage aura directly locked onto Feng Qingya.
Feng Qingya was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage.
In front of the Second Elder, she had almost no power to resist.
“I thought that the Second Elder was also an absolute pillar of the Feng family, but I didn’t expect it to be like this.
It’s a shame for the Feng family to have you lot.”
The moment Feng Li appeared, Feng Qingya realized that the Feng Baozhao lineage had no bottom line.
She had thought that even if the internal struggle was fierce, it was still an internal matter.
When facing a strong enemy, they would unite against the outside.
The Second Elder, as a figure like this, would surely consider the overall interests of the Feng family.
However, the Grand Elder was fighting to the death outside, while the Second Elder was still fighting internally.
It was truly laughable.
At the same time, Feng Qingya felt a deep bitterness in her heart.
For a family full of such parasites, it was deserved to be destroyed.
But in just an instant, Feng Qingya’s expression became sharp again.
“What you have done today, your lineage will surely pay the price.
I, Feng Qingya, may not be your opponent.
But you want to capture me, it’s impossible.”
As she spoke, the azure blue ring on Feng Qingya’s hand flashed.
A dark purple token suddenly appeared in her hand.
Seeing this token, Feng Li’s expression changed instantly.
His aura became even more intense, and he moved to capture Feng Qingya.
But at this moment, the token burst out with a dark purple light.
The light then condensed around Feng Qingya, forming a protective barrier.
She actually dodged the Second Elder.
The next moment, Feng Qingya jumped directly into a passage in front of her.
