The man did not have the time to catch his breath. His mystical Qi was exhausted, and at the delicate moment when he was out of breath, he was held tightly by the Niello Bear. For a moment, he could only exhale, but could not inhale. With a few cracking sounds, three of his bones were broken by the Niello Bear.
This was the result of the Niello Bear's inability to break through his mystical Qi, and the fact that his cultivation base was profound and his protective mystical Qi was strong.
However, with this contact, the man finally managed to catch his breath. As he spat out a mouthful of blood, he let out a loud cry. His long sword glowed brilliantly once again, and the invincible sword light and sword energy were unleashed by the swordsman in an extremely violent manner.
In that instant, he had truly used every bit of strength in his body. Every bit and every drop of his strength was unleashed.
The man's heart was filled with boundless hatred, hating the black bear that had ruined his plans.
Not only did this bear deserve to die, it had to!
The Niello Bear continued to roar wildly, not backing down at all as it engaged the swordsman in battle. The man and the bear fought in the collapsing buildings, causing dust and smoke to billow.
Yun Yang's eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
The swordsman's true ability was above Yun Yang's. Even if the Niello Bear, who could not even defeat Yun Yang, had the upper hand in the beginning, it was impossible for it to win. The swordsman knew this, Yun Yang knew it, and the Niello Bear knew it as well. However, it had still done so, without any hesitation. Just like Yun Yang, it had been impulsive, impulsive for the sake of friendship; it had no regrets even if it died!
Before the battle of certain death, he had first thrown the Moire Python, the opponent that he had been pestering for his entire life, out!
The meaning was obvious: I'll cover the retreat, you go and survive!
The Moire Python hissed, trying desperately to break free from Yun Yang's grip and rush back. Yun Yang held on to its body tightly, holding the heavily injured Whitey Three in his arms and tossing out two balls of spiritual Qi of vitality. Then, he flew towards the west gate.
He had been impulsive once.
He could not be impulsive a second time.
If he and the Moire Python were to rush back, then the meaning of the little bear's sacrifice would be lost.
Therefore, Yun Yang left decisively.
However, as he was escaping, he could not help but turn back to look.
His heart was throbbing with pain.
He hoped that the sturdy body would still be able to rush over and catch up to him.
Once again, he transformed into that silly, mini bear.
However, although the voices behind him were still chaotic, they gradually calmed down.
Yun Yang sighed softly and sped up. He could already see the shadow of the west city gate.
Whitey Two suddenly dropped to the ground.
Shangguan Lingxiu and the rest had been paying close attention to the movements in the sky. Her men were already stationed on both sides of the city gate. Seeing that the long-awaited Supreme Cloud had finally arrived, Shangguan Lingxiu commanded the two hundred or so battle-hardened warriors under her command to strike at the same time.
Amidst the splattering of flesh and blood, a passageway appeared in the defense of the west gate.
All of Ziyou's attention was focused on the city. Although the city was heavily guarded and guarded by many cultivators, their actual capabilities were still a few levels lower than the participants in the city. Not only was Shangguan Lingxiu's ambush sudden and unexpected, many of them did not understand what was going on when the Ziyou troop was ambushed.
Was Supreme Cloud not in the city?
How could we be attacked from the left!
Did he see a ghost?!
No, Yutang's reinforcements had come to Supreme Cloud's aid!
Ziyou's army was quick to react, sending troops from other places to rush over at once as if their lives depended on it.
However, it was too late.
The city gate had fallen!
As Yun Yang descended, his saber light flickered as he roared, "Follow me out of the city!"
The glimmering saber light was like a long dragon. The tightly shut city gate that had already fallen like a heavy dam had no room for resistance in front of the Divine Edge. A large hole was blasted open with a loud bang. Dust and smoke billowed as Yun Yang charged out first.
Shangguan Lingxiu followed closely behind.
Two hundred warriors exited the city and began sprinting.
Behind them, countless Deicide arrows chased after them. They were so dense that they covered the sky.
In spite of this, the final destination of these arrows was the gaping hole in the city gate that Yun Yang had blasted open like a flood. The lethality of these arrows was almost zero. Although Shangguan Lingxiu only had about two hundred men under her command, each of them was a veteran who had been through hundreds of battles. Once they exited the city, they dispersed immediately.
That thick and solid city gate became the safest shield for everyone!
The group charged forward along the path in front of the city gate, sprinting as fast as they could.
They were cultivators with an impressive cultivation base, so their speed was rather impressive. After all, they were only out of the city; it was not yet a safe distance away!
They were still within the spiritual restraining formation!
The city behind them was filled with people shouting and horses neighing. It was chaos everywhere as countless people cursed loudly.
The city gate, which had a huge hole in it, was slowly opening.
There were even more people who charged out from the corner of the gate to give chase.
In spite of this, almost everyone knew that the chances of success were slim. Yun Yang and his troop were already tens of thousands of feet away, far away from the boundary of Zilong City's city gate!
In spite of this, Ziyou's army obviously did not want to give up. More fireworks were shot into the sky, informing the troops stationed far away outside the city to begin mobilizing and encircling them, hoping for a fluke. It was their last effort.
Although leaving Zilong City would mean that Supreme Cloud's manifestation powers would be restored, he was not alone now. There were two to three hundred of them. Supreme Cloud could turn into the wind and clouds and leave, but what about the others? With the others holding him back, before these people were all dead, it was believed that Supreme Cloud would not abandon them. This meant that Ziyou still had a chance to kill Supreme Cloud!
"Follow me. Everyone, advance on the official road!"
Once they left Zilong City, Yun Yang sensed the spiritual Qi situation between heaven and earth at once. He realized that the coverage of Zilong City's spiritual restraining formation was wider than he had expected. It was not something that could be recovered immediately once they exited Zilong City. They had to walk a little further before they could shake off this damned formation. Naturally, he took the lead without another word.
He was still pretending to be Elder Yun, so Shangguan Lingxiu did not recognize that the Supreme Cloud in front of her was actually her sweetheart, Yun Yang. However, out of her absolute trust in Supreme Cloud, she would execute his orders without hesitation.
Everyone followed Yun Yang in a straight line.
After sprinting for more than ten miles, the pursuers behind them could already be heard rumbling noises. Dust filled the air. It was obvious that Ziyou's army had deployed their cavalry. Only the speed of a cavalry could catch up to the cultivators who were sprinting at full speed.
Yun Yang sucked in a few deep breaths. He had already swallowed a dozen healing spiritual pills that Lei Dongtian had given him along the way. In addition to Emmie, a natural cheat, his body had recovered considerably.
After charging another five hundred feet forward, Yun Yang's expression changed abruptly. He could finally feel the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth that he had not felt for a long time. The long-awaited spiritual Qi of heaven and earth was dancing in the air like fairies!
They had charged out of the formation!
Yun Yang realized it immediately.
Yun Yang was not the only one who felt it. Shangguan Lingxiu and the rest felt it too. The moment they arrived, it was as if they had crossed some barrier and freed themselves from some shackles. Even the air they breathed was exceptionally fresh.
Their minds cleared up at once.
Shangguan Lingxiu instinctively knew one thing – they had escaped from danger this time, their journey ahead was free of worries!
Freed from the restraints of the spiritual restraining formation, Supreme Cloud's manifestation powers had been reactivated. What else in this world could threaten Supreme Cloud?
"Continue to retreat at full speed. I'll bring up the rear." Yun Yang was still carrying Old Dugu as he said decisively, "We're no longer within the range of Zilong City's spiritual restraining formation. I'd like to see if Ziyou's army still has the ability to do anything to me!"
Shangguan Lingxiu agreed without hesitation. She saluted as she sprinted and whistled as she sprinted forward.
When they passed by a forest not too far away, dozens of people galloped out with hundreds of horses. They were the people Shangguan Lingxiu had arranged beforehand. This was a more secluded spot at the border of Zilong City's spiritual restraining formation, so it was only natural that they had set up a backup plan here. Everyone then leaped onto the horses as they galloped, leaving a trail of dust in their wake.
Everyone knew that they would not be of any help to Supreme Cloud if they were forced to stay and fight alongside him; they would only be a burden to him. Leaving Ziyou's territory as soon as possible would be the best assistance to Supreme Cloud!
Only Yun Yang was left at the back of the group. He continued to walk slowly, step by step, breathing in the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth carefully. He told himself inwardly, "From now on, I shall never step foot into the territory of this spiritual restraining formation for the rest of my life!"
Behind him, there were countless pursuers coming from all directions.
Everyone could see Supreme Cloud who was walking slowly on the road. Why was he walking so slowly?
Could it be …
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Supreme Cloud took a step forward, one leg disappearing from sight. He then turned around slowly, and as he did so, his body vanished as well.
Only a head was left on the spot, its eyes still staring coldly at the army that had surrounded them.
Then, even the head was gone, leaving only a pair of eyes.
Then, the eyes were gone as well. Supreme Cloud's body had vanished into thin air.
Everyone who witnessed this scene felt their scalps go numb.
Yes, they were out of the designated area now. Supreme Cloud's powers had all returned.
Did this mean that Supreme Cloud's manifestation powers were about to wreak havoc?
