After the Black Cloud Umbrella was hit by the two huge flying swords, it stopped spinning. The protective barrier under the umbrella also disappeared.
In the end, it swayed a few times before falling down.
Not good, the Black Cloud Umbrella has been broken Elder Tang's face changed. The thing that he was most worried about had come true.
Sou sou sou!
Without the protection of the Black Cloud Umbrella, countless flying swords flew towards them. They had no choice but to protect themselves.
Puff!
A few of them were already exhausted and their spiritual energy was depleted. Facing so many flying swords, how could they have the ability to resist?
In the end, a few of them were killed by these flying swords on the spot. Not even their corpses were left intact as they turned into pieces of flesh.
"We have nowhere else to go!" Chao Shi shouted in fear.
Although he was still able to resist these flying swords, he knew that this was only temporary. Soon, he would be exhausted and he would die here like his other companions, turning into a pile of flesh and blood.
In the end, we still lost. From the moment we accepted this mission, we were destined to have such an ending Elder Tang let out a sorrowful sigh as he watched a few more large flying swords slash towards them. However, he was already powerless to escape.
Closing his eyes, he knew that this moment was the end of his life.
It wasn't just Elder Tang. The rest of the people also closed their eyes in despair when they saw this scene.
Their spiritual energy had already been depleted. There was no way for them to leave this place alive. There was also no way for them to resist this sword.
Everyone closed their eyes, waiting for death to come.
However, it was at this moment, the spectators saw an incomparably huge hand extending out from the sword formation. It grabbed onto the few people within the sword formation and placed them in front of Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu's eyes lit up.
At this moment, everyone also noticed that Cheng Yu's hands had just canceled the hand seal. Everyone immediately came to a realization.
It turned out that the Cheng Family Head had saved these people at the critical moment.
Why did the Cheng Family Head save them? Wouldn't it be better to just let them die? Someone asked doubtfully.
These people originally came to the Cheng Family to cause trouble, but now they were exhausted in the Clan Protecting Grand Array. If the Cheng Family Patriarch had acted a moment later, they would have been cut into pieces by those flying swords in the blink of an eye, so why bother saving them?
"Patriarch Cheng probably wants to capture them alive and dig out the mastermind behind them." Someone guessed.
"That should be the case. Otherwise, there would be no reason for Patriarch Cheng to save these people. But I think these people are usually very loyal people who are sent to carry out such a mission. They definitely won't reveal the mastermind behind the scenes, "someone said.
"That's not necessarily true. Although these people might be very loyal, in the face of life and death, many will choose to compromise in the end.
After all, life and death are always the most difficult things for people to see through, "someone analyzed.
"Indeed, when it comes to life and death, it will always be an insurmountable hurdle.
Aren't we cultivating for the sake of longevity? But now, he had to face death. Naturally, he was unwilling.
Compared to ordinary people, we are even more unwilling to accept death. Because the lifespan of an ordinary person was only a few decades, and there was no way to change all of this, so they were very open-minded, knowing that they could not escape death in the end.
But we are different, because we have already increased our lifespan through cultivation, which means that we can indeed achieve longevity through cultivation.
When we know that immortality is not just a fantasy, we are even more unwilling to die. Because as long as we work a little harder, we might be able to ascend to the Immortal World and become immortals, achieving eternal life.
People like them were all Great Ascension Stage cultivators, and their strength was so strong. How much hardship and effort had he put in to obtain all of this?
Were they willing to give up so easily and accept death?
Therefore, I reckon that no matter how loyal they are to their masters, in the face of death, this little bit of loyalty is really nothing! "Someone said with deep emotion.
In reality, they knew very well in their hearts that these words weren't only directed at Elder Tang and the others. Weren't they the same as well?
As cultivators, immortality had always been their greatest wish.
What was the purpose of ascending to the Immortal World? Just to become an immortal?
Of course not. The reason why they wanted to ascend to the Immortal World and become an immortal was because they wanted to live forever.
To be able to reach their current achievements, which one of them didn't go through hundreds or thousands of years of hard work?
Compared to ordinary people, their efforts were even more arduous, so they weren't willing to die.
If they were to die just like that, then why did they work so hard to cultivate in the first place? Every day, they would fight for resources and they could be killed at any time.
Then wouldn't it be happier to just be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life for a few short decades?
If it was anyone else, I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to maintain their loyalty. In the face of loyalty and life, how many people would be willing to die for loyalty? Everyone nodded. They had a deep understanding of his words.
Although these words seemed to make people feel that human nature was ugly, reality was like this.
Compared to cultivators, ordinary people were more likely to die for loyalty. However, for cultivators like them, loyalty and life, in the end, more people would choose to live.
Obviously, Cheng Yu had cultivated for two lives and had long since seen through this logic.
Therefore, this method had been tried and tested many times. How many people had chosen to betray in order to live?
However, Cheng Yu didn't care because this was a kind of rule in the world. Since he understood this logic, he had to leave a way out for himself.
Moreover, Cheng Yu had already experienced betrayal once. Therefore, he was very clear about betrayal.
Whether it was his enemy or his own people, it was actually possible for them to betray him.
Therefore, what he had to do was to try his best to give himself a better benefit. In this world, anyone could betray him except for benefits.
As long as there were enough benefits, they would at least reach a certain level of loyalty. This was already enough for Cheng Yu.
However, I have to say, Patriarch Cheng's strength is indeed astonishing. Such a terrifying sword formation, he was actually able to easily save those people. His strength is truly terrifying! Someone was very surprised by Cheng Yu's move just now.
After all, they had already seen how terrifying the Cheng Family's protective formation was. None of them dared to say that they would be able to safely escape from this protective formation.
Just now, everyone thought that these people were dead for sure. However, they didn't expect that with just a move, Cheng Yu was able to save everyone from danger. This strength was truly too astonishing.
"I've long heard that Patriarch Cheng's strength had already reached the acme of perfection. Now, it seems like it's true.
It's a pity that we didn't have the chance to see Patriarch Cheng's true strength. "Someone said doubtfully.
After so many years, they didn't even have the chance to see Cheng Yu, let alone seeing him personally kill his enemies.
However, even if Cheng Yu rarely showed himself, within the Cheng Family's sphere of influence, they would still be able to hear how powerful Cheng Yu was.
Regarding this, a lot of people had never seen Cheng Yu before. However, in their minds, they had long been deeply imprinted with the words "Cheng Yu is very powerful".
Therefore, even if they didn't know Cheng Yu, they knew that he was very powerful.
Now, Cheng Yu had only revealed a small move. Although they were unable to see through Cheng Yu's full strength, just this move alone was enough to prove that Cheng Yu's strength was very powerful.
At the very least, Cheng Yu should be able to come and go freely within the Cheng Family's protective formation. This was not something an ordinary expert could do.
"No wonder the Cheng Family was able to reach this step. With a peerless expert like Patriarch Cheng leading them, how could the Cheng Family not prosper?" Everyone sighed with emotion.
At this moment, everyone returned to Cheng Yu's side and surrounded Elder Tang and the others.
Elder Tang and the others also looked at Cheng Yu in shock. They didn't expect that Cheng Yu would save them at their most dangerous moment.
However, after thinking about it for a while, they understood why Cheng Yu would save them.
"Patriarch Cheng truly has a good method. However, even if you save us, we can't tell you anything!" Elder Tang was also shocked by Cheng Yu's method.
To be honest, among the people on the mountain, there was no one who understood the Cheng Family's protective formation better than him.
They knew how terrifying this formation was. It caused them to rack their brains and even use immortal tools. However, in the end, they still couldn't break through the sword formation.
However, the sword formation that they couldn't break through in front of them was so easy in front of Cheng Yu.
They had been on the brink of death in there, but the other party had saved everyone with just one move. Thinking about it, the gap between them was really not small.
The funny thing was that they still wanted to fight with such an expert. How could they possibly fight against Cheng Yu?
However, even if he couldn't win, he couldn't compromise with Cheng Yu just because he couldn't win.
"I feel that the most important thing for a person is not only to have self-knowledge, but also to know how to practice. I won't ask you to say anything today, but I think you will be willing to chat with me soon. Bring them down first! "Cheng Yu smiled but didn't say much.
Even if he really wanted to know something from their mouths, it was impossible for him to use torture in front of so many people.
At this point, it was basically time for this matter to end.
He believed that everyone had a new understanding of his Cheng Family. Even after the competition ended, many people would publicize everything they saw in the Cheng Family.
He hoped that those who wanted to go against the Cheng Family would think twice before doing so.
