If there were hundreds of Ancient Martial Artists, Wang Baole and the other two could ignore them. With their level of cultivation, they could easily crush them.
However, after the hundreds of Ancient Martial Artists were assimilated by the Big Tree, they were able to unleash the power of True Breath. This caused their expressions to change, and their hearts to tremble violently.
"This is equivalent to dispersing the Big Tree's level of cultivation on these hundreds of people, allowing them to unleash the power of True Breath … If that's the case, what level of cultivation does the Big Tree itself have?" Zhuo Yifan's heart trembled, and shock appeared in his eyes. Wang Baole's breathing quickened, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he immediately spoke.
"With such a level of cultivation, it's using puppets to surround and attack us. This means that the Big Tree must have used most of its cultivation to strengthen the fog seal. This might be our only chance …" Wang Baole's words made Zhuo Yifan and Zhao Yameng ponder. However, they did not have time to think. When the puppets charged at them, they quickly retreated.
Because they could only rely on the cruiser to fly, and these puppets could not, an aerial battle was obviously extremely disadvantageous for the three of them. Thus, the moment the three of them retreated, they all rushed towards the forest below!
As they descended, the hundreds of expressionless puppets had already caught up with them.
They were so fast that they created a sound that broke through the air. They closed in on them in an instant!
Amidst the rumbling, they immediately engaged in battle with Wang Baole and the other two. As a member of the Combat Pavilion, Zhuo Yifan's attacks were not ordinary. As he formed seals, spells flashed out to fight against his enemies.
However, spells were not his main attack method. As a cultivator of the Combat Pavilion, he preferred to fight in close combat. At this moment, as his spells spread out, his eyes were filled with fighting spirit. He leaped up and took out a large purple sword. As his eyes shone with a strange light, an illusory shadow appeared behind him. It was as if he had summoned the body of his previous life. After merging with himself, it was as if he had transformed into a God of War. With a roar, he charged forward.
The sword slashed out, and the three puppets in front of him trembled violently before shattering into pieces. Zhuo Yifan didn't stop there. Performing an incantation gesture, he summoned numerous wind blades that swept out in all directions. Then, he hefted his sword and charged forward.
Wherever it passed, the True Breath puppet cultivators were unable to resist. They either retreated or collapsed!
For a time, Zhuo Yifan was like a chariot that shook the surroundings and revealed a shocking combat strength that far exceeded his peers.
As for Zhao Yameng, she could be considered a genius when it came to spell formations. Although her face was pale, she waved her hands through the air, causing a spell formation to appear out of nowhere. On the one hand, it would provide support to Wang Baole and Zhuo Yifan, and on the other hand, it would weaken any incoming enemies.
If that was all there was to it, it would not be enough to show how powerful she was. As she waved her hands rapidly, one formation after another appeared out of nowhere.
In the blink of an eye, there were more than a hundred different formations of various sizes that landed in all directions. They seemed to be scattered, but they were all connected to each other. It was as if they were combining to form a huge spell formation!
To be able to set up a huge spell formation in such a short period of time, Zhao Yameng was one of a kind among the True Breath cultivators of the four major Dao Colleges!
After all, she was … a natural spirit body!
"Spell formation, turn!" She let out a shout, and the spell formations in the area began to rotate. Every time two spell formations overlapped, the puppet cultivators in the area would tremble violently.
From afar, the spell formations emitted light that resembled bright lines that spread out in all directions. Every time two lines crossed, it would form a killing force that was extremely lethal!
Even though there were some puppets that Zhao Yameng's spell formation could not kill instantly, it could cause them to stop, causing the rhythm of the entire battle to be within her control. Together with Zhuo Yifan's sword and spells, it actually caused the hundreds of puppets that were charging towards them to stop!
It was obvious that the two of them did not have any prior experience in their attacks. This attack could be considered the first time they had worked together, but their coordination was extremely good.
Zhao Yameng's spell formation trapped the enemy like a support. It was both lethal and could affect the enemy. On the other hand, Zhuo Yifan's attack was sharp, lethal, and sharp!
At the same time, Wang Baole's eyes shone brightly. After taking a step forward, he raised his right hand and waved it high.
He growled, "Arc Flash!" Instantly, an arc of lightning appeared in the palm of his hand.
As soon as the Arc Flash appeared, it exploded with blinding light. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the forehead of one of the Cultivators. Then, it leaped up and shot toward the next Cultivator. It moved with incredible speed, much faster than Zhuo Yifan. In the blink of an eye, Zhuo Yifan, Zhao Yameng, and Wang Baole joined in, causing their combined power to increase explosively!
Furthermore, the arcs of light seemed like they would never end. As they continued to flash, they began to split. At first, there was only one arc, but soon, there were ten. Soon, there were even more arcs of light. The entire battlefield was filled with dazzling arcs of light!
The battlefield was filled with thunderous booms that reverberated through the sky.
However, Wang Baole's attack wasn't over yet. He adjusted his breathing, and in this moment of crisis, his left hand flashed with an incantation gesture.
"Flame Explosion!" As his voice reverberated, a sea of fire appeared in front of him. Everywhere it passed, it seemed to form a wall of fire. It surged forward with a force that could topple mountains and overturn seas. The puppet Cultivators trembled and were sent flying backward.
If the Arc Flash was a point attack, then the Flame Explosion was a sweeping attack!
However, when the hundreds of puppet Cultivators saw that they couldn't take down the Cultivators after attacking for a long time, green light shone from each of them. They transformed into leaves formed by spells and flew toward Wang Baole and the other two like flying swords.
"Dharma treasures?" Looking at the flying swords made Wang Baole's eyes widen. As an Armament Soldier of the Dharmic Armament Pavilion, Wang Baole naturally didn't lack Dharma treasures.
"Numinous treasures!" He roared. Immediately, dozens of Numinous treasures exploded and filled the sky. Among them were large seals, ropes, mirrors, flying swords, and so on. They formed a storm around him, blocking the flying swords and creating loud booms.
In an instant, the three of them attacked at the same time. Under the superposition of their powers, they displayed an astonishing aura. From afar, their coordination was flawless!
Zhao Yameng was trapped, Zhuo Yifan was attacking, and Wang Baole was like a sorcerer. The spells he used were even more powerful than Zhuo Yifan's. To a certain extent, the three of them divided the battlefield into two zones, the inner and outer zones!
In the outer zone, Wang Baole's spells boomed, making it difficult for the enemies to approach. As for the inner zone, Zhuo Yifan's attacks were sharp, killing all the enemies that managed to get close. As for Zhao Yameng, her array formation covered both the inner and outer zones. With her constant support, the three of them were like fish in water, coordinating with each other even more harmoniously.
Although the three of them were surprised by this scene, it wasn't much. In fact, this was the strength of the Ethereal Dao College. It was also the philosophy of the Ethereal Dao College. They didn't mind having a single hero, but they advocated for teamwork. From the Lower Academy Island's faculty to the Upper Academy Island's pavilion, the students could complement each other with what they had learned. This way, when they attacked, they could form a superposition of strength!
Wang Baole's attacks were still ongoing. He took out some Dharma treasures and threw them directly to Zhuo Yifan and Zhao Yameng. After the Numinous treasures formed a storm around the two of them, the scabbard in Wang Baole's body vibrated. Nine mosquitoes flew out one after another. On one hand, they were lethal on the battlefield, and on the other hand, they provided Wang Baole with a comprehensive view of the situation.
It was also at this time that Wang Baole took out his … Baole Cannon!
He carried it on his shoulder and fired it directly. The roaring sound reverberated in the air. The three of them attacked while retreating. Even though they didn't see any chance of escaping, they wouldn't give up until the very end.
"Kill the students and cultivators of the Ethereal Dao College. They are already dead. What we need to do is to destroy their bodies!" Wang Baole said loudly as he retreated.
Zhuo Yifan was silent. He knew that this was the only way to save themselves. It was obvious that the mastermind behind all this didn't want news of what happened here to spread outside. Therefore, their goal was to assimilate the three of them. This assimilation was something that the mastermind must have had a way to prevent outsiders from noticing the changes in a short period of time. This way, when this matter was over, the three of them who walked out would no longer be their former selves!
As for Wang Baole's suggestion to destroy the bodies of the students and cultivators of the Ethereal Dao College, his goal was to prevent them from returning on time and alert the Dao College.
He understood the rationale, but he was still a little hesitant when it came to actually attacking. However, Zhao Yameng's eyes flashed, and she decisively attacked immediately. Her focus was on the students from the Lower Academy Island and the two cultivators from the Combat Pavilion.
However, very quickly, the trio's faces turned even paler. Although their attacks were still sharp, most of their strength was spent on retreating. Indeed … regardless of whether it was the three Ethereal Dao College students and cultivators or the other puppet cultivators, no matter what kind of injuries they had suffered previously, even if their bodies had collapsed, tree branches would emerge from their bodies in the blink of an eye and reconnect their flesh and blood!
Very quickly, their wounds healed, and they continued to charge forward unscathed.
However, this place was sealed. Even if Wang Baole and company retreated, it was ultimately useless. At that moment, the three of them looked at each other anxiously and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
"Split up and escape. Once anyone manages to escape, immediately seek help from the Dao College!" Said Zhao Yameng decisively. With a flash of her body, she dashed towards the forest in the distance. Zhuo Yifan also gritted his teeth and ran away in an instant.
At that moment, Wang Baole's heart was racing. He was filled with a sense of danger. When he heard that, he also unleashed his full speed. Instantly, his body was like a flying meatball as he charged towards the forest.
