Eliminating the Enemy

A large number of White Bone Corpses lunged from all directions, their target being Han Changming.

Han Changming felt a surge of tension and hurriedly activated a stack of Fireball Talismans, which transformed into watermelon-sized Crimson Fireballs that smashed aggressively into the incoming White Bone Corpses.

Boom!

A massive roar erupted as rolling flames engulfed a dozen White Bone Corpses. They let out miserable, strange shrieks, yet they did not fall.

Han Changming unleashed two Yellow Flying Knives, hacking the dozen White Bone Corpses into pieces.

Not long after, another dozen White Bone Corpses crawled out from the ground.

Han Changming repeated his tactics, destroying this batch as well, but soon, another dozen crawled out from the earth, as if they were endless.

Han Changming's brows furrowed tightly; he realized that the White Bone Corpses were inexhaustible unless someone broke the formation.

He was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, so pinning all hopes on him was clearly unrealistic.

He could only hope that his clansmen would break the formation quickly, as he could not hold out for too long.

He controlled the two Yellow Flying Knives to hover around him; whenever a White Bone Corpse came within five feet, it was immediately hacked to pieces by the blades.

The White Bone Corpses were simply endless, crawling out from the ground one after another.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Han Changming had already slaughtered hundreds of White Bone Corpses, yet it was to no avail.

His face turned slightly pale; if this continued, his mana would eventually be exhausted.

Considering his clansmen were present, he dared not take out a Spirit Gathering Stone.

"Boom!"

With a heaven-shaking explosion, a powerful shockwave swept outward in all directions.

Han Changming felt his vision blur, and all the White Bone Corpses vanished; he found himself inside a cave.

Han Deling's face was somewhat pale. Not far in front of them was a massive pit still emitting heat. A gaunt, hollow-eyed Taoist in white robes stood in the stone chamber; judging by his aura, he was clearly a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Beside the white-robed Taoist was a White Bone Python over ten feet long, with two green flames burning in its hollow eye sockets.

At his feet lay a pile of fragments that could vaguely be identified as a Formation Disk.

Behind Han Changming stood a man and a woman, both Qi Refining cultivators. They exuded a cold, sinister aura, and each had two black leather bags hanging from their waists.

Both were at the eighth level of Qi Refining and possessed formidable strength.

"Attack, kill them," the white-robed Taoist ordered coldly.

The White Bone Python beside him opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Han Deling and the others.

The white-robed Taoist activated a shimmering white command flag, which transformed into a ten-foot-long White Bone Tiger that pounced toward Han Deling.

Han Deling and the others did not dare to be negligent, hurriedly controlling their second-tier Puppet Beasts to cast spells and attack the two bone creatures.

Boom!

The deafening roars were incessant, and spells of various colors flickered with spiritual light.

The man and woman each released a Humanoid Bone Corpse, which lunged toward Han Changming.

Han Changming hurriedly threw out ten Fireball Talismans, which turned into ten watermelon-sized fireballs that smashed into the two bone creatures.

The ten Crimson Fireballs struck the two bone creatures respectively, and rolling flames submerged them, followed by the two Yellow Flying Knives hacking into their bodies.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A series of muffled sounds like metal striking metal rang out, but the bone creatures remained unscathed.

A cold wind blew, and the flames were quickly extinguished as the two bone creatures continued to lunge at Han Changming.

A large wave of Crimson Fire Blades shot over, slashing into the two bone creatures and transforming into a massive sheet of crimson flame that engulfed them.

Han Changming activated the Mountain-Shaking Seal, which rapidly expanded and smashed down onto the two bone creatures.

The cave was somewhat narrow, and the two bone creatures could not dodge at all, being smashed into pieces by the Mountain-Shaking Seal.

Ten foot-long White Bone Blades shot over, slashing toward Han Changming with aggressive momentum.

"A set of magical artifacts!" Han Changming's expression turned grave.

The power of a set of magical artifacts was far greater than that of a single piece. He hurriedly slapped a Water Shield Talisman onto himself, and a blue water curtain appeared around him.

There were seven cultivators on the Han Clan side; Han Changming and two clan uncles dealt with the two evil Qi Refining cultivators, while Han Deling and the other three faced the white-robed Taoist.

"Finish this quickly, don't drag it out," Han Deling shouted.

Two clansmen each activated a glowing red talisman, which transformed into two Crimson Fire Pythons over ten feet long that lunged at the two evil Qi Refining cultivators.

Han Changming took talismans from his storage bag and threw them at the opponents as if they were worthless.

Boom!

The massive roars were incessant. Facing the attacks of three Qi Refining cultivators and two second-tier Puppet Beasts, the two evil cultivators struggled significantly. They joined forces to prop up a white light barrier, barely managing to withstand the attacks from Han Changming and his two companions.

Two crimson flames, each as thick as an adult's arm, struck the white light barrier, and the flames spread rapidly.

A massive yellow seal smashed onto the white light barrier, and the barrier shattered like paper under the impact of the yellow seal.

The two evil cultivators hurriedly cast defensive measures on themselves, but dozens of Crimson Fireballs smashed into their protective spiritual shields, and rolling flames submerged their figures.

With a loud "bang," the defensive barrier of one evil cultivator shattered, and a faint, shimmering needle pierced through his head, causing him to collapse powerlessly to the ground.

At the same time, several glowing magical artifacts struck, piercing the defenses of another evil cultivator and slaying her.

The group led by Han Changming was extremely well-prepared, carrying a large number of talismans and even second-tier Puppet Beasts.

On the other side, having finished off two Qi Refining evil cultivators, Han Changming and his two companions were free to assist Han Deling.

A deafening explosion rang out, followed by a scream.

Han Changming turned his head to look and saw two of his uncles lying on the ground, a layer of white flames burning them into ash.

While overcome with grief, he also felt a sense of relief; had he come to search for treasure alone, he would have been in deep trouble.

"You are courting death." Han Deling's gaze turned cold, and the White Banner in her hand flared with light, transforming into a White Giant Python over ten zhang long that lunged at the white-robed Taoist while spewing cold air.

Simultaneously, the Red Long Staff in Han Debiao's hands erupted with a layer of crimson flames, smashing toward the white-robed Taoist amidst rolling waves of heat.

Several thick beams of light struck toward the white-robed Taoist with incredible speed.

Rumble!

The white-robed Taoist's protective spiritual shield was quickly destroyed, and over a dozen magical artifacts pierced his body; even with his strength, he could not fend off so many opponents. The Han Clan cultivators had been well-prepared, yet they still lost two clansmen to the Demonic Fire released by the white-robed Taoist.

After killing the white-robed Taoist, the five members of Han Deling's group all breathed a collective sigh of relief.

With two clansmen dead at the hands of the evil cultivators, the five of them felt deeply saddened.

Han Deling retrieved a White Storage Bag from the corpse of the white-robed Taoist and poured all its contents out.

"This is the Blazing Flame Blade, the magical artifact of our twenty-first younger brother; he truly met with an accident." Han Deling held five red flying knives in her hand, frowning as she spoke.

"There aren't that many ancient cultivator caves out there; this is a bloody lesson! Changming, if you had come to search for treasure on your own, you would have followed in the footsteps of our twenty-first brother. It is fortunate that you told us." Han Dehai sighed and said earnestly.
