A Dao Fruit was the condensed essence of a cultivator's cultivation.
Unless they had no other choice, most cultivators would not choose such a resolute method.
Everyone had a wishful thinking and would not be willing to give up their last shred of hope even if they were on the brink of despair.
However, the black-robed man did not hesitate at all!
Wielding Sword Immortal, Lin Xunzhen tapped the black-robed man's glabella gently with the tip of his sword and dug out the man's Dao Fruit.
Unfortunately, the man's Dao Fruit was already filled with cracks and was of no use.
Lin Xunzhen took off the man's storage bag and swept it with his spirit consciousness before tossing it on the ground casually.
Wang Dong explained to Su Zimo and Kitsune softly, "Most of these fiend sinful spirits do not have any treasures and have empty bags. That's why our storage bags are extremely attractive to them! “
After killing the man, Lin Xunzhen said indifferently, "Human cultivators in the Fiend Battlefield who do not have Heaven's Acknowledgment Badges can be treated as sinful spirits. There's no need to be merciful to them."
That statement seemed a little redundant.
Everyone already knew about that before entering the Fiend Battlefield. However, for some reason, Lin Xunzhen had to explain it again.
Su Zimo was the only one who could tell that Lin Xunzhen's words were meant for him.
Wang Dong added, "That's right. Even if we don't kill them, the other party will kill us immediately. The moment we step into the Fiend Battlefield, we are irreconcilable with the fiend sinful spirits. It's a fight to the death! "
Su Zimo pondered for a moment before saying, "Actually, I've been cultivating the Thousand Sword Formation for the past few years as well. Why don't you count me in?"
"This …"
When they heard that, Wang Dong, Gongsun Yu and the others exchanged glances and fell silent for a moment with troubled expressions.
Under normal circumstances, a sword formation formed by nine people was indeed stronger than a sword formation formed by eight people.
However, Peak Master Su's cultivation realm was only at Heavenly Human realm. If he were to join the sword formation, he would instead become a flaw in the sword formation.
The power of the sword formation would decrease instead of increase.
To put it simply, if Peak Master Su were to join the sword formation, he would drag the eight of them down instead.
However, it wasn't good to tell Peak Master Su about this, as it would hurt his reputation.
After a while, Wang Dong coughed softly and said with a smile, "Peak Master Su, the eight of us are more familiar with the coordination of the Thousand Sword Formation. You've only been cultivating the sword formation for a short while, so we might not be used to it if you suddenly join us."
"These days, you can observe our cooperation in the sword formation and familiarize yourself with it."
"Exactly."
Gongsun Yu also hurriedly said, "We all understand Peak Master Su's intentions. You also want to help, but Peak Master need not be in such a hurry."
"In the future, when we encounter some evil spirits in the Consolidation Stage and the Celestial Being Stage, I'll let you show your skills!"
"Alright."
Su Zimo understood what Wang Tong and the others were implying, so he didn't insist.
To him, it did not matter whether he joined the sword formation or not.
If Lin Xunzhen and the others really encountered any danger that they couldn't resolve, he could intervene at any time.
For everyone, an ambush as such was merely a small interlude. None of them took it to heart and continued forward.
Before long, a commotion broke out in the darkness of the forest once more.
This time round, even without Su Zimo's reminder, Wang Tong, Gongsun Yu and the others had sensed danger as well!
"Get into formation and be on guard!"
Lin Xunzhen's reminder caused everyone to slow down as well.
Following that, there was another long period of silence. The surrounding temperature seemed to have dropped to freezing point and the atmosphere was stifling.
Everyone knew that they were going to be faced with a massacre!
After an unknown period of time, a series of divine powers and Dharmic treasures burst forth from the darkness, blanketing Lin Xunzhen's group of ten!
The Thousand Sword Formation was activated once more, releasing thousands of sword qi that shredded the darkness around them.
Dozens of figures charged out of the darkness, glaring at Su Zimo and the others with murderous intent.
They were no different from human cultivators, except that they did not have Heaven Worship Badges on their waists.
"Kill!"
The leader hollered.
A huge battle broke out between both sides!
Lin Xunzhen, Wang Tong and the others attacked with all their might. Massacring Sword Dao, Absolute Sword Dao, Extreme Sword Dao … the eight Sword Daos released a terrifying lethality with the support of the Thousand Sword Formation!
Although the other party had dozens of Perfected Immortals and had the advantage in numbers, Lin Xunzhen and the others defended with the Thousand Sword Formation and launched a powerful counterattack.
In less than ten breaths of time, six of the other party's Perfected Immortals were severely injured. One of them was even killed by Lin Xunzhen on the spot!
The dozens of Perfected Immortals did not form a formation and fought individually. In the end, they could not defend against the Thousand Sword Formation.
Both parties had a rough idea of the other party's strength after a single clash.
Even if Lin Xunzhen and the others did not form the Thousand Sword Formation, the sinful spirits would not be a match for them!
Lin Xunzhen seemed to have entered a strange state. Her expression was indifferent and her eyes were empty without any emotions.
Although she mainly cultivated the Dao of the Absolute Sword, the three sword arts were still able to release a terrifying lethality in her hands!
In midair, a blood mist spread.
The baptism of blood nourished Lin Xunzhen's Massacring Sword Dao continuously!
Su Zimo had already comprehended the Immortal Vanquishing Sword and his understanding of the Massacring Sword Dao surpassed Lin Xunzhen's.
He could sense that Lin Xunzhen would be able to comprehend the Immortal Vanquishing Sword very soon and was just short of an opportunity!
The battle lasted for only a hundred breaths before the other party began to collapse. More than ten sinful spirits had already collapsed in pools of blood and died!
The remaining sinful spirits could not withstand the attacks of the Thousand Sword Formation and retreated one after another, wanting to return to the darkness of the forest.
If Lin Xunzhen and the others wanted to continue chasing, it would be difficult to maintain the Thousand Sword Formation's formation.
With their methods, they would naturally not encounter any danger. However, Su Zimo and Kitsune who were in the center of the sword formation would have no one to protect them.
However, this opportunity was extremely rare.
If they could kill a few more sinful spirits, they might be able to obtain 100 battle merits in this battle alone!
"I'll go after them. You guys stay here and protect Peak Master Su and Junior Sister Beiming!"
Lin Xunzhen said and took the lead in chasing after them.
Just as they reached the edge of the dark forest, Lin Xunzhen suddenly stopped and leaped into the air. He shouted, "Be careful of the Yaksha Ghosts!"
The soil under Lin Xunzhen suddenly cracked open, and a monster with dark green skin and a hump-like head with sparse green hair emerged with a steel fork in its hand. It went straight for Lin Xunzhen!
If Lin Xunzhen had reacted a little slower and did not stop in time, he would have been pierced by this Yaksha!
This monster was extremely ugly and ferocious. It was the Yaksha that Su Zimo had seen in the Divine Firmament Celestial Realm's Shura Battlefield.
However, the Yakshas in the Shura Battlefield had been dead for many years. They had only borrowed the power of blood to reincarnate.
However, the Yaksha in front of them was surging with blood and vitality. It was a real living creature, and its combat power was many times stronger than those walking corpses!
