Chapter 772 - 411: Relentless Yin Soul
The array artifact before them, the array power it releases belongs to the Extreme Sharp Golden Realm. Unless they exhaust their mana, even for someone as powerful as him, breaking the defense array led by everyone’s united effort would be difficult.
’Hong San’ flashed a trace of blood color in his scarlet eyes, furious beyond anger. He turned to his subordinates and shouted angrily, "Xue Ci, Xue Ze, set up the Blood Sea Array!"
"Attributes obey!" Xue Ci and Xue Ze responded in unison, their figures flickered and retreated behind ’Hong San’.
Immediately, more than a dozen Demon Cultivators followed action, each taking their positions, making sealing gestures with their hands, and chanting eerie spells.
As the spells were chanted, a dense blood mist began to emanate from these Demon Cultivators, with faint wails emerging, as if countless vengeful souls were struggling within. The blood mist gradually converged, forming a massive blood sea, surging turbulently, emitting a nauseating bloody smell.
’Hong San’ sneered, waving his hands, the blood sea surged towards the golden protection shield, attempting to engulf it. Under the erosion of the blood sea, the golden array shield began to tremble, its light flickering, clearly bearing a huge pressure.
Within the protection shield, the cultivators felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. Their faces turned pale as they gritted their teeth, continuing to inject mana into the array artifact, trying to maintain the stability of the shield.
However, as time passed, the eroding power of the blood sea grew stronger, and the light of the golden protection shield dimmed further. The cultivators’ mana consumption was enormous, and some had already exhausted their mana, collapsing to the ground unable to support themselves any longer.
Within the passage, behind the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array, Li Mu silently observed the scene ahead with his divine thought, an inexplicable heaviness in his heart. He never expected to encounter the Nine Demons Sect here, with Master of Blood Demons Dana.
Truly a relentless Yin Soul!
"Master Li, can our array withstand that Integration Demon Cultivator?" Qian Wantong asked with a ghastly pale face, mingled with fear, looking at Li Mu with concern.
"Indeed! This person is too terrifying!" Wan Shaoming expressed his feeling, looking earnestly at Li Mu.
The other cultivators were also restless, their gazes collectively focusing on Li Mu.
"Blocking for a while shouldn’t be a problem! We might even leverage his power to break through the restriction ahead. However, given the opponent’s power, in the end, he might still break our grand array," Li Mu pondered for a moment and responded.
"Then what should we do!"
Hearing this, everyone’s hearts tightened in more unease; their initial hope pinned on Li Mu’s Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array to resist all things had instantly shattered.
"Master Li, doesn’t this mean we’re doomed?" a Divinity Transformation Cultivator asked tremblingly.
Li Mu glanced at him, smiled reassuringly, and said, "No, we still have a chance. While the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array cannot withstand that Integration Demon Cultivator for long, we can use this time to look for other escape routes."
"Escape routes? There are restrictions everywhere here, where can we escape?" Qian Wantong asked with a bitter smile.
"No, there’s definitely a way. If I can break the restriction ahead and then restore it, it can continue to obstruct the enemy! Additionally, I can set up a Teleportation Array to transport us away from here. However, the dense Yin Fiend power here requires me to find a suitable place to arrange the array, which will take some time to prepare," Li Mu smiled slightly, indicating.
After pausing for a moment, Li Mu looked at everyone, smiling and reassuring, "Moreover, if you follow my method to set up arrays and traps, we might still have a fighting chance."
Hearing this, everyone’s spirits lifted, subconsciously feeling a ray of hope, their faces lighting up with smiles.
"Master Li, just give your orders!"
"Master Li, tell us what to do, there’s no need to be courteous. We will fully cooperate!"
The cultivators looked at Li Mu with fervent eyes, all nodding, expressing their willingness to follow his arrangements.
While everyone was discussing strategies, outside the grand array, the battle had already concluded. Under the erosion of the Blood Sea Array, the cultivators’ mana was rapidly depleting, and they could no longer maintain the Sharp Gold Array Shield for long. What was once a brilliant light had dimmed, like the last glow of the setting sun, making its final struggle.
’Hong San’ watched this indifferently, as though enjoying an inconsequential drama. With a wave of his hand, a blood light slashed forth like the scythe of death, cold and ruthless.
With a "puff" sound, the blood light effortlessly broke through the already fragile Sharp Gold Array Shield, tearing it like thin paper, and several Void Refining Cultivators’ heads flew, blood gushing like a fountain from their necks, their bodies falling powerlessly, as if announcing the end of the battle.
The remaining surviving cultivators were utterly terrified, knowing they were left with no escape. Some struggled, controlling their swords to rise in resistance, while others used escape techniques to flee, yet all were in vain, being slaughtered one after another by ’Hong San’, leaving none alive.
At this moment, the passage fell into a deadly silence.
’Hong San’ turned, facing the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array, a vicious gleam flashing across his scarlet eyes, he commanded his subordinates, "You all, unleash the power of the blood sea to help me break the array!"
"As you command!"
The Demon Cultivators responded in unison, immediately taking their positions. Each made sealing gestures with their hands, chanting eerie spells again. As the chanting progressed, the blood sea around them absorbed the blood qi from the ground, then surged toward ’Hong San’.
As the blood sea enveloped him, ’Hong San’s’ body instantly doubled in size. He strode forward, charging into the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array. With a fierce wave of his arm, the blood sea rapidly transformed into a thick blood beam, fiercely striking against the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array.
A loud "boom" resounded, and within the array, the dense power of Yin Fiend was instantly forced open, creating a ’blood path’. Three Yin Sha Demon Dragons were successively corroded by the crimson blood, eradicated.
At this moment, Li Mu did not dare to be negligent. With his hands forming seals at lightning speed, he shouted at everyone, "Don’t panic, stick to the plan!"
Li Mu swiftly made sealing gestures with his hands, continuously injecting his mana into the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array.
Other cultivators followed Li Mu’s example, injecting their mana into the array. With their combined efforts, the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array radiated brilliant light, and three black vortexes spewed out three Yin Sha Demon Dragons, assembling as nine dragons, roaring as they charged upon ’Hong San’.
’Hong San’ snorted coldly, raising his fist, swinging his legs, countering nine at once, showing no sign of losing ground.
"Booming!" The huge booming sounds reverberated within the passage,
The collision of these two forces created intense shockwaves, causing the entire passage to tremble, the Yin Sha power of the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array, and the power of blood flickered continuously within the array, with relentless explosion sounds.
However, under the united lead of Li Mu and others, the Yin Sha power of the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array rapidly increased in speed, staunchly resisting ’Hong San’s’ fierce attacks. Although the light of the array dimmed significantly, the nine heads of Yin Sha Dragon continuously received infusions of Yin Sha power, instantly recovering their vitality, maintaining strong form.
’Hong San’ roared repeatedly, transforming into nine forms, each filled with powerful blood qi, wielding a blood sword, like nine bloody whirlwinds, charging at every Yin Sha Dragon within the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array.
In the blink of an eye, a fierce clash between the Nine Dragons and the nine demons erupted within the passage, causing the entire space to shake.
’Hong San’s’ duplicates intertwined with every Yin Sha Demon Dragon, their bloody sword lights intermingling with the black dragon breath, exploding with thunderous roars, each strike threatening to tear the space apart, and every collision carried the force to destroy heaven and earth.
But the mystery of the Nine Dragons Slaying Immortal Array was such that whenever a Yin Sha Dragon sustained severe damage, Li Mu would infuse it with gathered Yin Sha power, causing the Yin Sha Demon Dragons to instantly restore their vitality, continuing fierce battles with ’Hong San’s’ duplicates, or being reborn from the Yin Sha vortex, their nearly eternal quality placing unprecedented pressure on ’Hong San’.
The battle raged on for several hours, and as time passed, ’Hong San’ began to show signs of struggle. However, the fierce battle was rapidly consuming the Yin Fiend power accumulated in the restricted area.
At this juncture, a sudden change occurred!
