The wind carried with it a misty rain. Everyone who was running, even if they were wearing straw raincoats, were completely drenched. A swordsman took out a bottle of wine and drank a few mouthfuls before ordering, "He has fallen under the Elder's spell. He can't escape. Quick, search carefully."
Many people were shouting out as well. Groups of people were no longer cautious and started to search through the forest. A swordsman was lying on the ground and could smell the scent of blood. He then shouted, "This person is injured. Quick, it's this direction. Chase after him."
A group of people continued to search, looking extremely haggard in the wind and rain.
The elevator door opened, revealing a corridor. Every few meters, there was a wall lamp, but the light was dim. It was obvious that the corridor was long. Pei Zi Yun continued to move forward.
After walking for twenty meters, he turned a corner. All of a sudden, a black shadow flashed past him, sending chills down his spine.
"It's here again!"
"Stars Transposition!"
Everything in front of him shattered as Pei Zi Yun opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was that the sky had brightened. Dark clouds covered the entire mountain. Rain fell on his face as he opened his mouth to suck in the rainwater.
Gradually, he regained consciousness and realized that he was lying in a patch of reeds, leaning against a rock. If one did not look carefully, one would not have noticed.
"The sorcery is actually used to draw people into a frightening situation, just like brewing wine. There are many ways to destroy it. The best way is to destroy it with brute force, and not to see through it."
"I've broken the second part of the plot time after time, and had to start all over again. That's why I'm not affected."
"It should be daybreak soon, right?"
Just as he was thinking about this, a loud boom could be heard. A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, revealing the shadows of several people searching for him.
"System!"
A Plum Blossom appeared in front of him, as it grew bigger and became a translucent information interface. It floated in front of him, carrying with it a faint sense of light.
"Divine Powers: Stars Transposition Level 2 (99.9% Completed)"
"It's almost done. The books I've read outside have helped me increase my reputation."
"Quick, search this patch of reeds. Use your sabers to chop them." The bladesman in the straw raincoat was also exhausted. He used his saber to chop the reeds, causing them to fall one after another.
One of the bladesmen was completely drenched. He wore a straw raincoat and chopped down the reeds. A gust of wind blew, and he chopped down a patch of reeds. The reeds fell down, revealing an empty space. The two of them looked at each other.
The swordsman was stunned. Pei Zi Yun waved his sword, and fresh blood spurted out from the man's neck, splattering onto the reeds. The rest of the swordsman were stunned. In the next second, some of them bent over, some of them chopped the reeds, some of them still had bread in their mouths, and all of them remained motionless.
In the next second, someone shouted, "Found him! Quickly kill this thief!"
Following the shout, more than ten swordsmen swarmed in. Seeing that Pei Zi Yun was nonchalantly holding onto his sword and leaning against the rock, none of them dared to approach him.
"Kill!" After being stunned for a few seconds, a swordsman charged forward.
Pei Zi Yun closed his eyes as the numbers on his information interface jumped.
"Divine Powers: Stars Transposition Level 2 (100% Completed)"
Pei Zi Yun did not hesitate as he stretched out his hand and tapped on the information interface. Immediately, the numbers changed. "Divine Powers: Stars Transposition Level 3"
The moment he reached the third level, the black mist in front of him thinned by half. Only a few shadows could be seen. Although these shadows were illusions, they did not affect what was real or fake.
"Go to hell!" The swordsman charged towards him, his blade intent rising.
"Haha, what a joke." Pei Zi Yun's shadow flickered, and transformed into a shadow. In an instant, he was already at the right side of the swordsman's waist. With a slash of his sword, the swordsman's waist was sliced open.
"Flash!" Under the night sky, a bright light flashed through the reeds. The sword light pierced through, and Pei Zi Yun had already changed positions.
"Ugh!" The three of them screamed out in pain. Their bodies swayed, and their blades fell to the ground.
"Stop!" Two swordsmen charged towards him.
"Clang clang clang!" Sparks flew everywhere, as the sword light flashed, pierced through the air, and collided with each other. It did not stop for even a second, and then suddenly stopped.
Pei Zi Yun changed positions, and his sword slashed downwards. The right side of his shirt was split open, as though it had been cut by the sword.
The two swordsmen were still standing, but suddenly knelt down. Their bodies twitched, and fresh blood splattered everywhere, dying the ground red.
"Your sword techniques are not bad, especially when the two of you work together. Indeed, you can match me in terms of sword techniques. Furthermore, you are Daoists, and are wary of Dao Arts."
"But so what?" Pei Zi Yun looked around arrogantly, his heart was filled with anger. He revealed a sinister smile, "You are not strong enough. As long as I continue to attack, I will not give you any time to breathe. My seventh sword will cause you to be unable to use your inner Qi, and my eighth sword will kill you."
"Adapting to the situation, asymmetrical attacks, and lethal attacks. This is the art of war."
"If you don't study the art of war, you can't command an army. How can you be skilled in martial arts? You are all trash! "Pei Zi Yun charged forward," Now, let me send you all on your way. "
"Sand Technique!"
His shadow charged forward, and the swordsman did not understand what he was saying, but he instinctively waved his blade and shouted. When two soldiers met, it was either you die or I die.
"Pu" The two of them charged forward, but after taking three to four steps, they fell heavily to the ground.
The flash of the sword was like lightning, and in a split second, it struck the other side. "Clang!" The swordsman's blade flew out a few inches, and an opening was revealed. The flash of the sword flashed again, and a head flew into the air.
"Paralysis Technique!" Pei Zi Yun retreated, and turned to the side. He did not want to follow the momentum of the attack, "Rather than injuring all ten fingers, I might as well cut off one finger, and kill the wings. I will concentrate all my firepower on one point."
"All of you, go to hell!"
The sword flashed to the left, and two swordsman groaned as they fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.
At this point, the remaining swordsman and Daoist finally broke down. They screamed, turned around and fled.
"Destroy the enemy's formation, and then chase after them." Pei Zi Yun roared in anger, and chased after them. These few days of being chased and ambushed, he was finally enraged.
"Die!" The flash of the sword flashed, and one of the swordsman who was trying to escape groaned. He took three steps forward, and staggered two. Blood flowed out of his guts, and he fell forward.
Mountain Deity Temple
"Pu!" Elder Xu felt as though he had been struck by lightning, and spat out a mouthful of blood. The two Daoists opposite him groaned as they fell backward.
"Elder Xu, what's wrong?" Someone hurriedly helped him up.
"I'm fine. Pei Zi Yun's treasure has increased in strength by several times, and Dao arts can no longer interfere with it. We've suffered a backlash."
"Quick, take a look at them."
Elder Xu shouted out loudly, and the rest of the people immediately rushed forward to help them up. The two Daoists' bodies were still warm, and their hearts were still breathing. However, there was no response, as though they were the living dead.
Elder Xu stretched out his hands to push them, but there was no response. His heart sank to rock bottom.
"Elder Xu, it just showed that the people we sent into the forest are all dead. There's no response from the talisman!" Someone reported in panic.
Elder Xu did not ask any further questions, as he understood everything. Pei Zi Yun had already broken free from the spell, and killed all the swordsman and swordsman. This was something he had never expected.
One of the Daoists was running around in circles, and mumbling, "What should we do? This … What should we do …. "
"Do not panic!" Elder Xu had already calmed down.
"Pei Zi Yun has been through hundreds of battles, and has killed countless people. Our sect has a long history, and we've been through many battles. However, these new disciples don't have the experience of killing such a powerful swordsman. That's why they failed."
"But we've managed to defend the forest for three days. That's a victory." Elder Xu said.
When another Daoist heard these words, he calmed down, "Elder Xu is right. This has taught us a lesson. Against such a powerful swordsman, we can't treat him like a normal person."
Another Daoist's voice was hoarse, "Initially, Senior Elder said that if we can't kill him, we can hold him off for three days. I had some doubts about this, but now I understand. If we can't kill him, we won't be able to escape his wrath."
Elder Chen nodded his head, "Our mission is to kill or hold him off for three days. Time's up. All of you should retreat quickly. There's no need to wait any longer. I shall bring the rest of the people to hold him off."
Elder Xu gave the order, but his heart was filled with bitterness. He was the leader, and this was a huge loss for him. If he were to escape, he would be punished when he returned to the sect. If he were to resist, he might be able to salvage the situation.
"Ai, Dao Master Yin Master can't become an Earth Immortal, and only has a lot of energy. Most of his abilities are in the underworld. How depressing." Another Daoist said helplessly.
"Alright, there's no need to speak further. Let's leave now." Elder Xu ordered, "The longer we delay, the more dreams we have. Quick, quick!"
At this point, a cold laugh could be heard, "Do you think you can escape?"
"Who's there?" The swordsman who was guarding the Daoist charged towards him and drew his sword.
"It's you?" Elder Xu's face fell as he looked ahead. A shadow had appeared at the door. His robes were torn and tattered, and were stained with blood.
Pei Zi Yun walked in through the door, smiling savagely, "I've found you guys. Indeed, you're here. Killing an Elder from Dark Altar Sect effortlessly. How delightful."
Seeing the person in front of him speak such words, Elder Xu replied coldly, "Pei Zi Yun, you've arrived so quickly. Indeed, you've exceeded my expectations. But do you really think you can kill us?"
"I've already killed so many people. Why should I be afraid of the four of you?" Pei Zi Yun laughed, "Do you think I'll let you off? As long as I kill you, I'll be able to kill all twenty of you. The pressure on the sect will be greatly reduced. "
The entire area was filled with a thick killing intent as their auras clashed against each other.
"Is that so? You can't kill us yet! " Elder Xu looked at Pei Zi Yun intently as he pointed out with his finger. All of a sudden, vines shot out from the door and the ground, wrapping around Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun leapt forward, and his sword flashed. Sparks flew all over the place, as the sound of metal clashing could be heard. A part of the vine fell off, but grew back like a venomous snake, wrapping itself around Pei Zi Yun.
"Elder Chen." Seeing this, a Daoist called out in a low voice. Elder Xu shook his head, indicating that he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
Seeing this, Pei Zi Yun was somewhat astonished. He didn't expect to see such a technique being used.
He then asked, "How long can you last for?" Elder Xu cleared his throat and replied, "Pei Zi Yun, you're indeed a genius. However, you're from a small sect. How could you possibly understand the techniques of Dark Altar Sect?"
Elder Xu cleared his throat and replied, "Pei Zi Yun, you're indeed a genius. However, you're from a small sect. How could you possibly understand the techniques of Dark Altar Sect?"
