The sudden appearance of a dozen martial artists up in the skies caused Tie Chengfeng's eyes to quiver, and he could not help showing a look of fear.
"It's … it's actually the Shi family." Meanwhile, beside Tie Chengfeng, Mu Qubing's face had turned pale with fright, and he was even trembling as he spoke.
He never dreamed that they would actually run into the Shi family of the Cloud Buddha here!
The Shi family of the Cloud Buddha represented absolute authority at the Sea of Misery Horizon, and they were supreme existences.
The martial artists of the Sea of Clouds Horizon were usually weak due to the pressure of the Sea of Misery.
However, it was different for the Shi family of the Cloud Buddha. It was rumored that by relying on Manjusaka, even the most talented martial artists could easily reach the level of Demi Saint.
And now, the dozen or so martial artists who appeared before Nie Tian's group were all very powerful, with the weakest being a half-Saint. There were also a few Demi Saints amongst them, with one being a three-stage Demi Saint.
While such power was not that great, they would definitely be considered as super champions at the Sea of Misery Horizon.
It should be noted that even Tie Chengfeng and Tulu, lords of seas, had only recently stepped into the threshold of Demi Saints.
"Hehe. The patriarch was right. Those idiots really did come." That was when one of the martial artists of the Shi family chuckled, his eyes cold. He was looking at Nie Tian's group as if he was looking at a bunch of idiots.
In his eyes, Nie Tian and the others were certainly no different from idiots. They had gone through so much trouble to find the secret passageway and risked their lives to enter the Cloud Buddha Peak, only to become sacrifices for the Scarlet Blood Sacrificial Array after arriving. What else could they be but idiots?
"Haha! Our ancestor had handed those hundred and eight compasses to the Sea Lords all those years ago, and these fools would never have dreamed that it was actually a trap. Hahaha! "Another martial artist of the Shi family laughed out loud in an extremely arrogant manner.
Tie Chengfeng and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. They simply had no idea what the martial artists of the Shi family were talking about, and their expressions were really no different from idiots.
However, Nie Tian had a solemn expression on his face. He understood what Shi Family's martial artists were talking about.
In the past, when Shi Clan's ancestor gave the Sea Lords the compass map, he had intentionally left a secret passage into the Cloudy Buddha Peak on the map. This was to lure these Sea Lords into the Cloudy Buddha Peak one day.
After these Sea Lords entered the Cloud Buddha Peak, not only would they not be able to obtain the Red Spider Lily, but they would also become sacrifices for the Scarlet Blood Sacrificial Array.
Nie Tian was now very sure that the Scarlet Blood Sacrificial Array was laid down by the Cloud Buddha Shi Clan.
This formation was so huge that it must have taken a long time to build.
As for the Cloud Buddha Shi Family, after setting up the sacrificial array, they activated the compass map. This was equivalent to opening a trap that had been set up in advance, causing the Sea Lord to jump into the pit.
There was more than one secret passageway, which meant that all the Sea Lords were scattered. This way, killing these people would be very easy.
"Father, what are these people saying? How come I don't understand?" Tie Long Deng was scared out of his wits. He looked at Tie Chengfeng with a sluggish expression.
However, Tie Chengfeng's expression was not much better than his — he was also terrified and at a loss.
"My lords, we have trespassed on the Cloudy Buddha Peak by mistake. Please, my lords, have mercy and spare us." Mu Qubing, on the other hand, had calmed down for a moment. He looked up at the Shi family martial artists up in the sky and spoke respectfully.
"Spare you? Sure! " One of the martial artists from the Shi family sneered and moved at once, slamming his palm down viciously. At once, a thunderous palm force rolled down, causing the void to tremble for a moment. The surrounding space tightened as if it was about to be torn apart by the tremendous force.
That martial artist was not weak. He was already a first-tier Demi Saint, and the power behind his palm was enough to directly kill Mu Qubing.
"Brother Tie, save me!" Mu Qubing's eyes trembled as he cried out in horror, hoping that Tie Chengfeng could save him.
However, Tie Chengfeng simply stood where he was like a puppet, not moving at all.
"Die!" That martial artist from the Shi family bellowed like thunder, his aura violent and frightening. It was clear that he intended to kill Mu Qubing right there and then.
Mu Qubing's ability was too weak. His blood was not enough to activate the power of Manjusaka, which was why there was no need for such a person to live.
"Boom!" But that was when Mu Qubing had already lost all hope. A shadow of a sword whizzed out and directly blocked the fatal palm strike in the air.
"Boom!" The air rumbled and the void trembled. In the instant that the Sword Will surged, the figure of the martial artist from the Shi family was actually forced back by hundreds of meters.
"Huh?" That person steadied himself and exclaimed in surprise. Then, his cold and somber gaze was fixed on Nie Tian.
When he sensed Nie Tian's ability, his eyes could not help but narrow, and the shock and astonishment in his heart were written all over his face.
He hadn't expected that the cultivator who'd broken his palm strike and forced him to retreat was only a Second Stage Half-Saint.
He was a martial artist from the Shi family, a first-tier Demi Saint, and yet he was forced back by a second-tier Demi Saint. How was that possible?
"Brat, you're courting death!" But in the next moment, that person's eyes turned cold, and his killing intent surged. After letting out a fierce roar, his entire body was like a berserk beast, and he struck out with both palms at Nie Tian.
"Hmph!" Nie Tian felt the violent energy coming at him, but he was not the least bit afraid. Instead, he sneered and blasted out with the Starry Heaven Slash in his hand. The shadow of the sword shot up into the sky like a raging dragon breaking out of the abyss.
"Boom! Boom! " The shadow of the sword roared, and the Sword Will burst forth with terrifying power in the air. The two fist shadows in the air were directly bombarded and shattered.
In the next moment, that martial artist suddenly sensed that something was amiss. His eyes trembled, and he screamed, "Not good!"
But unfortunately, it was too late.
"Boom!" In the void, a dull thud was heard. That person's figure was sent flying into the sky, leaving a trail of blood in the air before exploding into a bloody light and vanishing.
The ghastly scene made everyone's eyes tremble, and the scene fell into a dead silence for a few seconds.
"How dare you! How dare you kill a martial artist from the Shi family! " After the dead silence came an explosion of rage. One of the martial artists from the Shi family roared thunderously, and his entire body's aura was unleashed, surging in the air, vigorous and violent.
That martial artist turned out to be a second-tier Demi Saint.
"Go to hell!" In the next moment, he bellowed, and a black spear appeared in his hand. The spear swept out like a dragon, and eight shadows of the spear appeared in the air, each more violent than the last, and all of them pressed down on Nie Tian.
"Your Shi family dares to kill us, so why wouldn't I dare to kill him?!" With a cold laugh, Nie Tian sprang into action. The Star Heaven Slash burst forth with dazzling sword light, and waves of violent sword intent whistled through the air like a storm of sharp blades, incomparably sharp, as if they could tear anything apart.
The other martial artists from the Shi family in the sky could not help but tremble when they saw this scene.
Obviously, they did not expect that a second-tier demi saint martial artist would have such terrifying power in his body!
