"That's not right!"
The moment the Invisible Blade entered his body, Sheji felt that something was amiss.
It did not feel like she had pierced through flesh and blood. Instead, it felt like she had pierced through a piece of dead wood.
Furthermore … Lv Wang's protective spiritual energy was much weaker than she had imagined. She had gotten it a little too easily.
Pop.
With a soft pop, the layer of True Inner Force that enveloped the "Bai Xiaowen" on the Wrath Claw's back dissipated like a popped soap bubble, revealing its true appearance — —
It was a white wooden statue.
Demonic Art: Wood Incarnation!
Sheji's heart suddenly turned cold. The Invisible Blade in her right hand instantly dissipated. She exerted force with the tip of her foot, creating a sonic boom as she tried to escape the "crime scene".
However, her ankle suddenly tightened.
Just as Sheji had "killed" Bai Xiaowen, the Wrath Claw had not been idle. It bit at Sheji's ankle — — The Wrath Claw had already reached level 13. Its strength had also increased. This bite was based on its hunting instincts. It was extraordinarily fast and powerful.
Fortunately, she had spiritual energy to protect her body. Otherwise, Sheji's ankle would definitely have been bitten off by the Wrath Claw.
But now, Sheji could not break free.
The ultimate skill that she was so proud of, "Seven Flashes", naturally could not be used.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A group of summoned creatures appeared around the Wrath Claw. They attacked Sheji with a combination of long-range and close-range fighters!
Sheji's reaction was very fast. Her other leg swiftly kicked at the Wrath Claw's neck. At the same time, the Invisible Blade in her right hand condensed again. With a circle and a slash, she forced all the summoned creatures to retreat.
Against the arrows of the Ghoul Archers and the various hidden weapons from the martial artists of the pugilistic world, Sheji displayed extremely high agility. Her body was like a willow leaf. She turned and dodged most of the hidden weapons and arrows. As for the few that she could not dodge, she could use her powerful protective spiritual energy to block them.
However, the spells of the Bloodthorn Mother, the Banshee Queen, the Skeletal Fiend Arcane Master, and the others weren't so easy to dodge.
Under the control of Bai Xiaowen's Meditation Mastery, the spells all landed precisely on the same spot, scattering Sheji's protective spiritual energy.
Wrath Claw finally bit down. Its sharp teeth sunk into Sheji's ankle, so deep that the bone could be seen.
Following that, the Wrath Claw swung its head and threw Sheji to the ground, stomping on her with its two claws.
Sheji did not care about her sorry state. She rolled twice on the ground and dodged the Wrath Claw's stomp. Then, she launched herself out of the group of summoned creatures at a tricky angle.
However, before Sheji could catch her breath, she was faced with a blazing white, shapeless blade that flickered in and out of existence!
"Formless Blade!"
Sheji's heart skipped a beat as she hurriedly circulated her spiritual energy to block it. However, the invisible blade had a powerful penetrative force.
Sheji had just escaped and her ankle was injured. She did not have enough spiritual energy to circulate.
As for this Invisible Blade, its power was comparable to the Invisible Blade she used with all her might when she was in her peak condition!
The blazing white Formless Blade pierced through Sheji's protective spiritual energy and penetrated her lower abdomen — which was her vital point, the hub of her spiritual energy meridians.
"It's you … You have been waiting for this opportunity …"
Looking at Bai Xiaowen, who was wearing an ordinary martial artist's outfit, Sheji felt all the strength in her body being sucked out.
Bai Xiaowen nodded silently. Bai Xiaowen had purposely left the gap for Sheji to charge out of the group of summoned creatures.
The "Formless Blade" skill that had been sealed by the Eye of Evolution finally came in handy. This skill had the effect of restraining protective spiritual energy. It was a very suitable skill for Bai Xiaowen, who relied on the Eye of Evolution to clearly see the enemy's vital points.
Of course, the "Formless Blade" restraining protective spiritual energy depended on the nature of both parties' spiritual energy. The higher the priority of the spiritual energy, the more effective the "Formless Blade" could be.
Seeing a beauty die at his hands, Bai Xiaowen did not feel a ripple in his heart.
There was no difference between men and women on the battlefield, only the difference between friend and foe.
Moreover, Sheji was a femme fatale. She definitely had a lot of vengeful souls under her hands. In Shangqing school, she had personally killed the innocent Humble Disciple Zhou Wu. She was considered a sharp blade in the hands of the Black Sky Hierarch.
Now that she had died at the hands of Bai Xiaowen, it was considered a part of the cycle of reincarnation.
Even Bai Xiaowen himself had killed a lot of people – mainly when he was exploring the Spiritual Realm. This was especially true when he was still an Awakened. When he thought that the people in the Spiritual Realm were all NPCs, he killed people like he was cutting grass. Everything was for his own benefit.
If Bai Xiaowen was killed by an enemy one day, he would not have any resentment — this was a part of the cycle of reincarnation.
The current Bai Xiaowen could only follow his own heart, the most basic concept of good and evil. He could only decide who should be killed and who should not be killed. This was the only bottom line he could protect.
Shaking his head slightly, Bai Xiaowen collected his thoughts. He casually threw Sheji's corpse into his storage bracelet and then commanded the Five Element Flags and the Giant Barbarian Soldiers to fight.
Without Sheji's leadership, the Black Sky Hierarch's experts lost their fighting spirit and fled in defeat.
Under the link of Bai Xiaowen's spiritual sense, the Giant Wood Flag and Flood Water Flag that had always been in charge of maintaining the formation, used the Long Wind Formation to form two columns to surround the Black Sky Sect experts that were attempting to escape.
Only a few lucky Black Sky Hierarch's experts who were good at Qinggong escaped. The rest all followed in Sheji's footsteps.
Bai Xiaowen led his subordinates to break through the last barrier and directly charged towards the Black Sky Palace!
…
Just as Bai Xiaowen expected, the Black Sky Hierarch did not sit in the Black Sky Palace and wait for the enemy to attack like a Dungeon Boss. Instead, he chose to take the initiative to attack.
The Black Sky Formation in the front mountain was filled with black fog. It was a good battlefield. The Black Sky Hierarch led a few dozen experts and entered the formation to launch a surprise attack on the experts of the Immortal Sect Alliance.
As a King-level expert, the Black Sky Hierarch's first surprise attack yielded good results. He killed nine experts of the Immortal Sect Alliance.
However, the Black Sky Hierarch was not very satisfied. He originally wanted to find the leader of the Immortal Sect Alliance — Chen Rong, who had just taken over the position of Headmaster of the Shangqing school. He wanted to kill the leader and completely destroy the morale of the Immortal Sect Alliance. However, the Black Sky Formation was constantly in operation. The Black Sky Hierarch could not find Chen Rong's location. It could only be said that whoever encountered him was unlucky.
Then, relying on his familiarity with the Black Sky Formation, the Black Sky Hierarch temporarily retreated. After a short rest to recover his spiritual energy, he entered the Black Sky Formation again.
The experts of the Immortal Sect Alliance were not people to be slaughtered. After receiving the news of the Black Sky Hierarch's appearance through spiritual talismans, they immediately changed from their scattered state of exploring the Maze Formation to gathering and preparing for battle. Four Lord-level experts and a dozen Rare-level leaders joined forces to trap the Black Sky Hierarch and engaged in a fierce battle! In the end, the Black Sky Hierarch forcefully killed a leader-level expert and left.
Dang dang dang …
The sound of a bell came from the direction of the Black Sky Palace.
