Forced Entry
Seeing their disciples die tragically, the two elders of the Lihuo Sect became anxious.
"Shentu Shan, stop right there!"
"Shentu Shan, you've gone mad!"
Two elders from the Lihuo Sect, one on the left and one on the right, pressed towards the elders of the Shentu Family. How could they stand by and watch their sect's disciples be killed?
"Bang!"
The three elders' vital energies collided, and Shentu Shan's attack was instantly rendered ineffective.
At this point, their original combined attack on Yi Yun naturally crumbled.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Yi Yun did not attempt the incredible feat of fighting three opponents alone. He simply used the young disciples of the Lihuo Sect as human shields to deflect the attacks.
"Foolish! You are all foolish!" Elder Shentu roared angrily after being stopped. "If we don't kill this brat now, and let him return to the mountains, the consequences will be dire!"
"Hmph! If it wasn't a disciple of your Shentu Family who died, of course you wouldn't be punished. You went to great lengths to kill that brat, and you're safe now, but we're the ones who suffer severe punishment, even having our cultivation crippled!"
The two elders of the Lihuo Sect looked extremely grim. They knew that today's events could not be resolved peacefully. With so many sect disciples dead, the two elders would be held responsible if the sect investigated.
And all of this was caused by Elder Shentu. How could the two elders of the Lihuo Sect not feel hatred for this?
Just as the three elders were fighting amongst themselves, a cold glint flashed in Yi Yun's eyes, and his long sword slashed out like a venomous snake!
In an instant, his body merged with the longsword, Man and Sword as One!
His target was Elder Shentu, who was located right in the center of the three!
Elder Shentu's attack has just ended, and he is currently at a point where his old strength is exhausted and new strength has not yet been generated. At this time, a martial artist's defense is at its weakest.
If two evenly matched opponents are fighting, one side will have exhausted its moves, and the other side will also have greatly depleted its strength. Since both sides are in similar situations, they can only charge up their strength to attack or defend.
But now, Yi Yun is at ease and waiting for the opportune moment, while Elder Shentu has just unleashed a powerful attack but has gained no advantage whatsoever. This difference in strength, one inside and one outside, is significant.
Moreover, Yi Yun's strength was originally superior to Elder Shentu's!
Yi Yun unleashed his slash, he seemed to transform into a streak of light, merging into the blade's radiance!
Within Yi Yun's body, the Dharma Aspect Totem roared!
Yi Yun's Dharma Aspect Totem is Three-legged Golden Crow.
However, when concealing his identity, he dared not let the Golden Crow Totem inside his body break out. Otherwise, others would have suspicions just by looking at his Dharma Aspect Totem, and sometimes, suspicion alone would be enough!
The golden crow burned, and Yi Yun's blood boiled within his body.
When a martial artist reaches a certain level, their Dharma Aspect Totem can be integrated into their flesh and blood, merging with their physical body.
Although Yi Yun has not yet reached that level, he can still make the Dharma Aspect Totem exert its maximum attack power within his body.
Yi Yun's slash drained the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, condensing all the energy into a sharp blade of light. The blade of light roared and finally converged into a huge blade shadow in the void!
"Snap snap snap!"
The earth was torn apart by the blade's edge, with dirt and rocks flying everywhere. Elder Shentu was the first to be hit, facing this terrifying strike!
Damn it!
As the blade's edge approached, his vital energy had already been exhausted in the previous attack, leaving him utterly unable to defend himself!
At this moment, the two elders of the Lihuo Sect standing beside Elder Shentu Shen Tu were startled and immediately chose to dodge!
Originally, although the three of them had all expended a lot of energy, they could have blocked Yi Yun's attack if they had joined forces.
However, they ignored Elder Shentu.
After all, the three of them weren't exactly friends, and in fact, they had a grudge against each other because Elder Shentu had slaughtered several geniuses of the Lihuo Sect.
However, they did not allow Yi Yun to kill Elder Shentu. In the instant the two of them flashed away, they unleashed their full energy and attacked Yi Yun from the left and right!
Abandoning Elder Shentu and taking the opportunity to attack and kill Yi Yun is the smartest move. If Yi Yun can be killed directly, then today's losses will be accounted for, and future troubles will be avoided.
The two joined forces, one unleashing the Devouring Law, a powerful Devouring vortex locking onto Yi Yun, while the other's entire body erupted in flames, transforming into a burning fire meteor as he charged towards Yi Yun!
"Um!?"
Yi Yun frowned. He had just made a sudden move, attacking Elder Shentu with lightning speed. He was confident that he could severely injure Elder Shentu in one blow, or even kill him.
But in just a fraction of a second, the two elders of the Lihuo Sect were able to react and make the right choice.
If he were to unleash his blade recklessly, he might severely injure Elder Shentu, but he himself would also be in grave danger!
With two martial artists at the Kaiyuan Realm joining forces, and given that Yi Yun dared not reveal many of his trump cards, it was difficult for him to escape unscathed.
Moreover, at this point, having already unleashed his attack and concentrated all his energy into the blade, how could he possibly sheath his sword!?
The two elders of the Lihuo Sect timed their counterattack perfectly!
In a flash, Yi Yun flicked his hand, and the long sword trembled, carrying the vast Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi as it roared out from Yi Yun's hand!
Yi Yun, using the force of throwing his longsword, retreated rapidly. He used the Golden Crow Sun-Plunder Movement Technique, reaching extreme speed, his body swaying erratically, and he actually managed to break free Lihuo Sect the Devouring Law lock of the Li Huo Sect elder.
"Bang!"
With an explosion of energy, Yi Yun's Tang Saber pierced through Elder Shentu's energy shield.
The blade plunged straight in, carrying an unstoppable momentum that was simply impossible to resist!
"Ah!"
Elder Shentu roared, gathering all his strength, determined to block Yi Yun's attack!
However, the difference in strength was too great. With a crisp sound, as if glass were shattering, Elder Shentu's Protective Vital Energy was pierced through by Yi Yun's blade!
The blade pierced his body, blood gushing out. It had penetrated Elder Shentu's right side, plunging diagonally into his lung. The powerful explosion of energy tore his right shoulder apart, shattering his shoulder blade and nearly blowing his arm off!
He let out a miserable groan and crashed heavily to the ground, his face as pale as paper!
At this moment, Yi Yun also faced a combined attack from the two elders of the Lihuo Sect. With the support of the Golden Crow Sun-Plunder Movement Technique, he dodged most of the attacks.
"Boom!"
With an energy explosion, Yi Yun's Protective Vital Energy surged violently, and his body, propelled by this force, soared high like a kite!
His vital energy surged and his blood flowed, causing him to suffer some internal injuries.
However, he did not stop; he used the momentum to rise higher and sped into the sky.
With his Movement Technique fully activated, Golden Crow Sun-Plunder Yi Yun, like a soaring eagle, disappeared into the clouds and vanished from sight. (To be continued~^~)
