Sikong Tiancai stopped channeling the power of the Tree of Life and revealed a disdainful smile, "You want to fight me with your strength? Dream on!"
"We can't fight him here. We must leave this place first," Bing Ling's voice came into Lu Xuan's ears.
While Lu Xuan really wanted to kill Sikong Tiancai right there and then, his rationality told him not to do so. Doing so would only bring everyone to the bottomless abyss, and no one would be able to escape from the claws of Sikong Tiancai and the others.
"Brother Nangong, Elder Long," Lu Xuan suddenly sent a voice transmission to them.
"What's the matter?" Long Boming turned around and asked. He was heavily injured, but a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. At this moment, he still joined forces with Nangong Lie to resist the attacks of the group of experts. They managed to maintain a stalemate. The only variable was the battle between Lu Xuan and Sikong Tiancai.
The strength that Lu Xuan displayed had indeed impressed Long Boming. His impression of Lu Xuan was still from the beast tide. At that time, Lu Xuan was able to humiliate Lin Zeyu under his protection, which had already shocked him greatly. He did not expect that Lu Xuan could actually fight against Sikong Tiancai who possessed the wood attribute treasure in such a short period of time. He could even make an expert like Nangong Lie treat him as an equal. It was simply unbelievable.
Lu Xuan took a deep breath without looking back and said, "You guys retreat with everyone. No one can do anything to Sikong Tiancai in this forest."
Long Boming could not help but smile wryly when he heard that. He had thought that Lu Xuan had some good idea, and he knew that as well. However, the combined strength of the Sikong clan, the Illusionary God Sect, and the Soul clan far surpassed theirs. There was no way that the Soul clan would sit back and watch them retreat.
"It's useless. Under their control, there's no chance to escape at all," Long Boming shook his head and said.
At this moment, Lu Xuan said something that shocked him, "I'll stop them. You guys leave with everyone."
Long Boming widened his eyes and said, "Are you kidding me? You can't stop them! Even if I were to risk my life, I wouldn't be able to block it. "
Lu Xuan ignored Long Boming's words and quickly said, "I can at most delay them for ten breaths of time. Within these ten breaths of time, you must increase the distance between you and them. As long as we can escape from this forest, then we'll have hope. If we can't escape … then it's over."
Long Boming still wanted to say something, but Nangong Lie suddenly said, "Brother Lu, can you really delay for 10 breaths of time?"
Lu Xuan nodded his head vigorously. This was his only chance of survival, so he had to take a gamble.
"Alright, I believe you!" Nangong Lie did not doubt Lu Xuan's words at all. In his opinion, Lu Xuan was definitely not someone who spoke without thinking.
Nangong Lie agreed. Long Boming was slightly taken aback, but he had no choice but to agree to Lu Xuan's plan. After all, if Lu Xuan could really delay them for 10 breaths of time, then it would be their only chance of survival.
News of the retreat quickly reached the ears of the Nine Eastern Alliance and the other factions. All they had to do was wait for Lu Xuan's order, and Nangong Lie and the other powerhouses would immediately shake off their opponents.
"Lu Xuan, you're crazy! You'll die! " Chen Xiaohan said anxiously to Lu Xuan. She did not expect Lu Xuan to make such a decision. Even if Lu Xuan could really delay Sikong Tiancai and the others, how could he withstand the counterattack of so many powerhouses by himself?
Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "Master, Xiaohan, protect Bing 'er. Xiangyi has already left. I can't just watch everyone die here in vain. Even if there's only a sliver of hope, I'll still fight for it."
"Lu Xuan, you … this kind of responsibility shouldn't be placed on your shoulders," Zhao Ying said, her heart aching. In terms of age, Lu Xuan was only in his early twenties, but he had always shouldered a responsibility that didn't match his age.
"Master, there's no time. I, Lu Xuan, will not die so easily. Even if there's only a sliver of hope, I will live." Lu Xuan's voice was low. "If I don't kill Sikong Tiancai with my own hands, even if I die, I won't be able to face Xiangyi."
Chen Xiaohan wanted to say something, but Lu Xuan had already given the order. "Wait for my next strike. Get ready to break through. Elder Long, Brother Nangong, I'm counting on you."
The Jiuhua Alliance was ready, the Nangong Family was ready, and so were those from Myriad Shark Island. He Ridi stared at Lu Xuan intently. Does this kid really have the ability to break out of this hopeless situation?
Lu Xuan cast aside all other thoughts. For Master, for Xiaohan, for Bing 'er, what was there to fight for?
"Immolate!"
An intense Void Fire burst out from Lu Xuan's body. The blazing flames seemed to set Lu Xuan on fire. Everyone was shocked to find that Lu Xuan's qi presence was rising rapidly.
"Are you going to fight with your life on the line?" Sikong Tiancai let out an evil smile. He loved the feeling of a cat catching a mouse. He loved the feeling of forcing the opponent to use all their moves, but still being toyed with in the palm of his hand.
Once again, all the Azure Dragon blood in his body was ignited. Previously, to deal with Bu Nuo, Lu Xuan had ignited his blood. That time, he used his eighth level Origin Realm strength to forcefully eliminate the five-star Spirit Emperor Bu Nuo. This time, he ignited his blood again. He was going to use his own strength to stop countless experts!
Powerful energy burst out from Lu Xuan's body uncontrollably. Sturdy dragon scales quickly covered his body. Lu Xuan could almost hear the cracking sounds of his bones expanding. His entire body seemed to have expanded by a size, making him look even bigger and sturdier.
When the energy was accumulated to the limit, Lu Xuan finally couldn't help but make his move. The Cloudy Sword slashed down abruptly. A bright sword light seemed to be slicing through the sky.
"Shooting Star Chasing Moon!"
An extremely fast and powerful sword was heading towards Sikong Tiancai without any deviation. When he felt the power of this sword, Sikong Tiancai couldn't help but have a slight change in expression. This sword was so powerful! He felt as though this sword was going to ignore all obstacles and directly pierce through him.
But he knew that this was just an illusion. Hence, he yelled out and used all his strength to activate the Tree of Life. But this time, he wasn't using it to attack, but to defend. Countless branches formed an impenetrable tree wall, protecting Sikong Tiancai tightly.
At this moment, Nangong Lie, He Ridi, Long Boming, and the others who had been using hand gestures suddenly erupted!
No one expected this turn of events. Sikong Tiancai was forced to take the initiative to defend against Lu Xuan's sword, Zuo Cen was sent flying by He Ridi's energy, and the two powerful soul emperors unleashed their powerful soul power to defend against Nangong Lie's raging flames.
"Retreat!" Nangong Lie yelled out. An extremely powerful energy instantly enveloped a group of people, and they quickly retreated. As they retreated, he didn't forget to cast two more Burning Sky Seals to stall for more time.
It was the same for the other experts. With the help of these experts, the scattered warriors all disappeared at this moment, creating a large distance between them in an instant. This was a battle of life and death. If they managed to escape the forest, then they would still have a fighting chance. If they failed to escape, then without Lu Xuan, they would definitely die.
"Damn it! Chase after them! " Sikong Tiancai yelled out furiously. Lu Xuan's sword was too powerful, forcing him to defend with all his strength. As a result, he didn't have any extra energy to stop everyone from escaping.
Without needing Sikong Tiancai's order, the Illusion God Sect and Soul Race were all enraged. They immediately prepared to give chase, but at this moment, a figure appeared in front of them.
"Lu Xuan? You actually didn't escape? "Sikong Tiancai sneered," Do you want to cover our retreat with your own strength? "
"Cut the crap, kill him." Ku Er said. The longer they delayed, the greater the chance of them escaping. He didn't place Lu Xuan, who had just broken through to the Void Realm, in his eyes.
"Together!" A bright light flashed in Dong Ruyi's eyes as she yelled. She had finally found the opportunity to kill Lu Xuan. This time, Lu Xuan wouldn't be able to escape even if he had wings.
Countless attacks flew towards Lu Xuan at this moment. Feeling the terrifying energy ripples in the air, Little Tanuki, who was lying on Lu Xuan's shoulder, couldn't help trembling. This was simply too exciting!
Dong Ruyi's eyes were filled with excitement as she looked at Lu Xuan. In her view, Lu Xuan was already a dead man. This round of attacks contained the power of the Tree of Life controlled by Sikong Tiancai, the Illusory God Destruction executed by Zuo Cen, and the soul power of the Soul Race. In this sealed ground, no one could withstand this level of attack, not even Nangong Lie!
Lu Xuan finally raised his sword. This sword that he had just obtained was the source of his confidence to stand here and face so many experts.
Before the sword was drawn, the aura was already there.
