Somewhere in the Black Abyss Maze, the sound of fighting shook the sky.
A dense swarm of sound beasts gathered, forming an encirclement of a thousand feet. They were like a turbulent tide, constantly besieging Elder Mo Wang and the others in the center of the encirclement.
Elder Mo Wang, who was controlling his armor, was besieged by two Earth Fiend Corpse Kings. He was already a little overwhelmed and had no time to care about the harassment of these sound beasts. The disciples of Tianji City around him were dragged into the swarm by the sound beasts one after another. They were almost torn to pieces before they could even scream.
"Elder, save me …"
A disciple was covered in blood, struggling to break out of the swarm. He stretched out his bloody arm toward Elder Mo Wang. Despair and hope coexisted in his eyes as he let out an unwilling cry.
Elder Mo Wang couldn't bear it and turned his head to look. Just as he was about to reach out to save him, he saw the disciple's expression suddenly twisted, and a hideous smile appeared on his face. Apparently, his mind had been controlled by the Corpse King.
"Not good!"
Elder Mo Wang knew that things were not good, but when he wanted to turn back, it was already too late.
His armor was punched through by an Earth Fiend Corpse King, and the other Earth Fiend Corpse King took advantage of the moment when the armor was broken to break through and broke in front of him. Its sharp claws pierced upward and went straight for Elder Mo Wang's heart.
"My life is over …" Elder Mo Wang lamented in his heart.
Right at this critical moment, a black light suddenly descended from the sky. The instant the Earth Fiend Corpse King's palm touched the clothes on Elder Mo Wang's chest, it penetrated the former's head with a "chi" sound.
The black light fell to the ground and turned into a black long sword engraved with runes. Immediately after, half of the Corpse King's head fell.
Seeing this, the other Earth Fiend Corpse King hurriedly looked for the person who came, but it couldn't detect the slightest spiritual power fluctuation and spirit power. Naturally, it couldn't track the slightest aura.
At this time, an extremely slender white light flashed in front of its eyes like a willow leaf. Just as it was about to reach out to catch it, the white light suddenly flashed and disappeared in front of its eyes.
But right after that, the white light flashed and appeared around the Corpse King. Its trajectory was so fast that no one could catch it.
When the white light stopped, the Earth Fiend Corpse King suddenly snorted and looked at its body in surprise. Only then did it find that from its neck to its ankles, cracks were bursting out one after another.
In the next instant, his body turned into a pile of minced meat and fell to the ground.
The white light of the willow leaf flew up and collided with the black flying sword in the air. The black and white lights flashed and fused together, turning into an exquisite long sword with a black body and a white blade.
As the sword soared into the air, a high-grade crystal embedded in the hilt suddenly lit up. Even the complex runes on the sword began to glow.
"Swish swish …"
The sound of a rainstorm suddenly sounded. The flying sword that was suspended in the air was rotating at an extremely fast speed. White sword lights constantly shot out from the sword and flew towards the surrounding Sound Beasts.
For a moment, countless Lunar Beasts fell one after another like seedlings in a paddy field, dying one after another.
In just a few breaths of time, half of the Sound Beasts had been slaughtered. The remaining Sound Beasts also fled.
Elder Mo Wang and the remaining three disciples of the Tianji City stood in a daze. The rainstorm of sword lights seemed to cover the sky and earth, but every single one of them had a precise trajectory and were perfectly controlled. Not a single one of them was able to hurt them.
"Qianji Sword, the City Lord is here, the City Lord is here …" Someone among the disciples suddenly shouted in surprise.
Elder Mo Wang looked at the corpses on the ground, especially the broken corpses of the disciples of Tianji City. His eyes were full of guilt and embarrassment.
She suddenly thought of something and hurriedly looked towards the remains of those two Earth Fiend Corpse Kings. In the end, she discovered that regardless of whether it was the one whose head was cut off or the guy who was chopped into minced meat, they had already disappeared at this moment.
"They still ran away …" She was full of hatred.
The Qianji Sword that was suspended in the air gradually slowed down. The white sword lights that shot out from it became fewer and fewer until they completely disappeared. The sword tip then turned back and flew into the distance.
In the darkness, where the sword lights landed, a few figures slowly walked out. They looked at Mo Wang and the others with a slightly dignified expression.
"Greetings, City Lord." Elder Mo Wang quickly went forward to greet him.
The other three disciples also immediately followed up. They were silent and cupped their fists in respect.
"It seems that the situation is worse than I expected!" Elder Fu looked at the miserable situation on the ground and couldn't help but sigh.
"City Lord, it's my incompetence. I couldn't protect the disciples of Tianji City and caused them to suffer heavy casualties." Elder Mo Wang took the initiative to take the blame and said.
"It's not all your fault. I didn't think it through and came too late. By the way, where are Elder Mei and Shen Luo? "Young Master shook his head and asked.
"We acted separately before, and now we are separated. I'm afraid their situation is not much better than ours." Elder Mo Wang heard this and couldn't help but sigh.
"We suffered heavy losses this time. No matter what, we must achieve our goal. We will continue to explore and meet up with Elder Mei sooner or later." Young Master said without hesitation.
"Yes."
With the City Lord as their backbone, Elder Mo Wang and the rest had nothing to worry about and immediately responded.
…
In the depths of the Black Abyss Maze, in the dark space, the bloody skeleton was playing with the yellow jade slip in one hand while listening to the report from his subordinate.
"My King, many of the outsiders this time are from Tianji City. There are many strong cultivators among them. The Sound Beasts could not hold them off and were forced to retreat. Even Master Gui Yan's two Earth Fiend Corpse Kings were defeated. They escaped back with heavy injuries." The messenger said carefully.
"Gui Yan has always been good with his words. His Earth Corpse Kings don't seem to be of much use." The bloody skeleton shook its head and said with slight disdain.
"Also, those guys are moving very fast. Someone has already crossed the Ruo Shui." The person who reported continued.
Upon hearing this, the crimson skeleton froze and stopped playing with the jade slip.
"What did you say? Someone has already crossed the Ruo Shui? "Its voice was much louder.
"My King … No, that's right …" The person who reported knelt down in fear and said with a trembling voice.
"If that's the case, it must be the work of those guys. Otherwise, these outsiders wouldn't be able to cross the Ruo Shui in such a short time." The bloody skeleton said in a low voice.
After a while, he ordered, "Go, call back all the Lunar Beasts. Just guard those few Spirit Formations. Don't worry about anything else."
"Yes."
The person who received the order immediately responded and left with the order.
"Great King, didn't you … didn't you agree with Gui Yan that if he gave you the Heavenly Corpse Scripture, we would help him block those Tianji City cultivators, why …" A True Immortal Umbra Beast beside him asked hesitantly.
"The agreement with Gui Yan is just a verbal promise. Gui Yan himself knows that I won't keep it. I've already done my best by blocking for him for so long. He can't expect me to bet with him, right? What's more … let him and the Tianji City cultivators fight to the death. Who wouldn't want to reap the benefits? "The bloody skeleton said with a smile.
"My King is wise …" The True Immortal Lunar Beast heard and immediately praised.
"Don't relax. Keep an eye on their movements and report back at any time." The bloody skeleton reminded.
"Yes."
