Qiu Lu's words, though somewhat commanding, were...
However, it must be said that attacking together now is the safest approach.
If they went up one by one, their fate might be just like that of the sword cultivator who fell into the pit earlier.
He was pinned to the ground by ten thousand swords, his soul and body extracted, and he died a gruesome death!
Yuezheng Chi didn't say a word, or even glance at Qiu Lu. He simply hugged his guqin and jumped down.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai glanced at Zhuang Zidong and said, "Let's set off too."
Zhuang Zidong nodded slightly.
Both of them jumped into the pit.
Qiu Lu and Su Hao followed closely behind.
The formation of five people is very simple.
Yuezheng Chi walked at the very front.
Ye Qiubai and Zhuang Zidong stood in the middle.
Qiu Lu and Su Hao covered the rear.
However, under a barrage of arrows, formation is of no use.
Because there are no blind spots.
Once the dense, thousands upon thousands of swords overhead are triggered, there's no point in trying to defend against them; running away or dodging will only suffice.
The five people continued forward.
His steps were slow and deliberate; he wasn't in a hurry.
As expected, the ten thousand swords in the sky were slowly moving, but always pointing directly at the top of their heads.
A dazzling Milky Way stretches across the sky.
Specks of starlight fell down.
They converge within the towering stone pillar.
It exudes considerable suppressive power.
Furthermore, there were countless swords densely packed in the sky.
In the already silent pit.
It added an incredibly oppressive atmosphere.
The palace beneath the stone pillars is still 500 meters away.
Four hundred meters...
At that moment, when the sword cultivator had three hundred meters left, he suddenly accelerated, and the Myriad Swords were activated accordingly!
Neither Ye Qiubai nor Yue Zhengchi, whose expression remained consistently calm Yuezheng Chi.
Their expressions grew increasingly solemn.
The pace began to slow.
Each step he took on the loess soil felt increasingly heavy.
Qiu Lu then said, "Get ready, we're almost there..."
The five of them were only thirty steps away from the sword cultivator's skeleton...
Su Hao was the first to draw his sword, and his Sword Intent soared into the sky!
Qiu Lu also drew a soft sword from his waist.
Under the infusion of Sword Intent, that limp longsword straightened instantly!
The Sword Intent, at the Half-Step Transcendent, surged forth at this moment.
Yuezheng Chi placed two fingers on the strings of the guqin, his Sword Intent concealed.
Ye Qiubai also wielded the Primordial Immortal Sword, ready to unleash his Sword Domain at any moment!
Zhuang Zidong was the only one who held a sword, but he did not release Sword Intent.
At this moment, however, no one else noticed Zhuang Zidong; they were all focused on the myriad swords overhead.
Ye Qiubai frowned slightly.
However, he didn't say anything.
Yuezheng Chi was at the very front of the group, when he stepped onto the spot where the sword cultivator's bones lay.
The myriad swords above moved at that moment!
They all turned their swords around, whistling and whistling as they pierced towards Yuezheng Chi and the others!
Seeing this.
Yuezheng Chi placed one hand on the zither and two fingers of the other hand on the strings.
Clang!
The music begins!
Those notes, as clear as flowing spring water, transformed into hundreds and thousands of swords at that moment, shooting towards the enemy!
Ye Qiubai took a single step forward, stepping over the withered bones of the sword cultivator, and raised his sword to the Qingtian!
Transcendent Sword Intent shot out in all directions.
The Sword Domain transformed into the first barrier, resisting the tens of thousands of longswords!
Neither Qiu Lu nor Su Hao would hold back their talents.
At this time.
All past grudges must be discarded.
Only by working together can we survive this test.
If you still have thoughts of framing others, you'll likely only end up harming yourself in the end...
The Sword Intent of the four men roared continuously.
It constantly clashed with the myriad swords overhead.
The longswords falling from the sky clashed with the Sword Intent, producing a clanging sound.
Although it was deflected by the Sword Intent.
However, when the Sword Intent is neutralized, the sword that was deflected will reposition itself and launch a new round of attacks on Ye Qiubai and his group of five!
At this moment, Ye Qiubai said in a deep voice, "Move forward quickly, or we'll be worn down here."
Before Ye Qiubai could finish speaking...
Yuezheng Chi and the others fought their way forward while simultaneously charging ahead.
But.
The five people walked forward more and more, their speed increasing.
They were getting closer and closer to the palace.
Those thousands upon thousands of swords were piercing through at an ever-increasing speed!
The Immortal Sword Intent emanating from it is also visibly sharp.
Seeing this, Yuezheng Chi frowned, placed three fingers on the strings at the same time, and the rhythm of the music changed.
What began as the gentle murmur of a flowing spring has transformed into an overwhelming attack by a massive army!
Ye Qiubai was about to thrust his sword out.
Zhuang Zidong, standing to the side, twisted the tip of his sword.
With one leg forward and the other back, he accelerated, twisting his body as he charged towards Ye Qiubai!
Zhuang Zidong then abandoned the longsword in his hand.
That face, which had been expressionless before, was now filled with a sinister grin.
Her eyes also became narrower and longer.
Yuezheng Chi, Qiu Lu, and Su Hao all noticed this scene.
They were all slightly startled.
Isn't Zhuang Zidong from the same sect as Ye Qiubai?
Why attack him?
Moreover, this was under circumstances where death could occur at any moment.
Even if there's a grudge, wouldn't it be more convenient to take action once we've escaped this place and reached the palace?
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai gave a cold smile.
Finally couldn't hold back anymore?
Then, he took out a talisman.
Thunderous power surged within the talisman!
Ye Qiubai activated the talisman.
In an instant, it transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished from the spot!
Zhuang Zidong was slightly taken aback.
His palm struck thin air.
The space there was also stirred up by ripples.
When he looked up again...
But they found that Ye Qiubai had already appeared at the entrance of the palace.
Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman
Although cultivation levels are restricted within the Severed Soul City.
However, there are no restrictive measures.
At this moment, Ye Qiubai had to admit that having a junior brother who was a talisman master was indeed very convenient.
certainly.
Why didn't you just use the Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman before?
Ye Qiubai had certainly considered using the Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman to cross the crater and arrive at the palace.
However, when he thought about all the strange things Zhuang Zidong had done before...
Then I thought of the outer city, and the scene of that spirit trying to seize my soul.
An idea had already formed in mind.
Could Zhuang Zidong have been possessed?
After this conjecture was made...
Ye Qiubai then decided to take the risk and temporarily refrain from using the Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman, stepping into the pit with the others.
after all.
Under the attack of ten thousand swords, a huge flaw will inevitably be exposed.
When Zhuang Zidong, now possessed, decides to take action, he will definitely do so at that moment.
As a powerful soul entity, it must have its own methods to pass this test.
Therefore, Ye Qiubai set up this scheme.
Now that we've tried it, it really works.
At this moment, Ye Qiubai did not push open the palace gates and enter directly.
Instead, he drew the Primordial Immortal Sword and slashed at Zhuang Zidong!
