When Ye Jiliu saw that the hand was closing in, he could only hurriedly open the protective light around his body and forcefully resist it. However, the five fingers continued to close in with great force, pressing down like layers of mountains. Seeing that the protective light was on the verge of shattering, Ye Jiliu's expression changed, and he immediately began to feel regret.
He did not have any protective talisman, and could only rely on his own strength to hold on. Just Now, if he were to risk his life and slash with his sword, he might still be able to fight his way out. However, it was too late now, and he could not free his hands at all. If no one came to his rescue, he would be crushed into a pile of minced meat in no time.
Seeing that he was at his wit's end, with a wave of his horsetail whisk, he no longer hesitated and shouted, "Save him!"
The other five also saw that the situation was critical, and they all made their moves. However, their speed varied, and their targets were also different.
As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he produced a jade talisman from his sleeve that was emanating a faint aura. The talisman had dragon and tiger markings engraved on its front, and he tossed it out. It flew down from the cloud and slammed into the huge Xuan Huang hand.
The four martial nephews behind him also took out their talisman and attacked together with him.
Daoist Sand, however, paid no attention to Ye Jiliu. Expressionlessly, he flicked his sleeve, and a golden-white pellet the size of a goose egg shot out, which went straight for Zhang Yan.
Just Now, the Jade Talisman arrived. Zhang Yan raised his hand, and a gloomy yellow light rose up, blocking in front of him. As the two collided, a few cracks appeared on the Jade Talisman, and it was sent flying back. Meanwhile, the True Earth Light also cracked like a rock, exploding.
The path ahead was unobstructed, and the four talismans behind just happened to rush in. They landed on the giant yellow hand one after another, and in an instant, they scattered it. They turned into thousands of wisps of yellow smoke that drifted in all directions.
Ye Jiliu suddenly felt the pressure on him lessen, and he immediately saw an opportunity. He also wielded the Dragon Centipede Sword and slashed with all his might, cleaving a path through the endless dust and sand. Using a flying technique, he escaped through the gap.
Zhang Yan sneered and pointed with two fingers. With a clear cry, the Stellar Sword Orb and the Five Spirits White Carp Shuttle flew out together and chased after him.
At this moment, Daoist Sha's golden-white flying ball had also landed. Before it even got close to his body, the black robe on his body suddenly emitted a three chi bright light. It rushed up to meet the flying ball, but it only rolled on the ground and did not fall.
Daoist Sand's expression froze as he said in a low voice, "Protective gown?"
The Stars Sword Pellet was so fast that Ye Jiliu could not escape in time. He hurriedly summoned the Dragon Centipede Sword over to parry. With a clang, it blocked the sword pellet. However, the Pentaspirit White Carp Shuttle circled around, and under a fierce peck from it, the protective treasure light actually shattered.
Ye Jiliu was shocked. The technique he cultivated wasn't of the orthodox Profound School, so if the treasure light protecting his body was broken, he would need to refine it again. Then, when facing the Pentaspirit White Carp Shuttle that was flying towards him, he would have no way to restrain it.
Seeing this from the cloud, Ram Sheng frowned. He threw the horsetail whisk in his hand, and the Thousand Threads scattered down like a net, actually wrapping around the Pentaspirit White Carp Shuttle.
However, this profound artifact seemed to be unwilling to admit defeat. It swung its head and tail, and the scales on its back glowed with a golden light. Unexpectedly, the net could not hold it in any longer, and the tenacious threads broke. In the blink of an eye, it rushed out.
Now that Ye Jiliu had a chance to catch his breath, he didn't dare to be careless anymore. He chanted an incantation, pointed at the Dragon Centipede Sword, and said, "Transform!"
The sword trembled. The front and the back were split into two sections. With another tremble, the sword body emitted a white light and turned into two identical magic swords. One flew up, still blocking the Stellar Sword Ball, and the other flew back to his bosom like a tired bird returning to the forest.
He reached out and grabbed the hilt. With a sword in hand, he regained some confidence.
At this moment, the Pentaspirit White Carp Shuttle was flying toward him again. Having seen how powerful this treasure was, he quickly flipped the magic sword upward, and with a clang, he barely managed to block it. However, this magic treasure was very intelligent, so he immediately circled around it, trying to find an opening.
Everyone saw a golden light flying around him, chasing him relentlessly.
Killing intent flickered in Zhang Yan's eyes. These seven people came from the same sect, so if they attacked together, it wouldn't be easy to deal with them. It would be best if he could kill one of them first. Now that he had such a good opportunity, how could he miss it?
Thus, he was not going to let Ye Jiliu off easily. With a command from his mind, the Stars Sword Orb suddenly jumped and transformed into sixteen dazzling sword rays. Each of them shot out like arrows, whistling through the air as they slashed toward Ye Jiliu.
Anyone could see that Ye Jiliu was already in dire straits under the siege of the spirit shuttles. If these sixteen flying swords were to slash at him, he would die without a doubt.
Gong Yangsheng had no choice but to save him again. However, after exchanging two blows with Zhang Yan, two of his magic treasures had already been destroyed, so he wasn't willing to use any more ordinary items to make up the numbers. With a shake of his body, an ancient jade ruyi appeared from a cloud above his head. It floated in the dense mist, bobbing up and down. Once it was activated, a ray of clear light shone down, piercing straight into the formation of the Heaven Pit of Earth Fire, illuminating everything down to the slightest detail.
When the sixteen sword rays were illuminated by this ray of light, it was as if they had fallen into mud. They were immediately hindered and slowed down.
At this moment, Daoist Sand shouted, "Shixiong, let's work together to kill Daoist Zhang!"
At first, he had the idea of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, attacking the enemy where he had to rescue Ye Jiliu. However, after Zhang Yan sensed a warning in his heart, he was already prepared. That was why he wore the two treasured robes, the 'Seven Stars Sun Binding Robe' and the 'Jing Luo Dun Jun Baoyou Robe', to protect himself.
Daoist Sand alone couldn't take him down, but if there were several people working together, their chances would increase greatly.
Reminded, Gong Yangsheng turned his gaze over. He also made a prompt decision and said, "Martial Nephew Rui, quickly go back and protect him. Fellow brethren, follow me to surround and kill Daoist Zhang!"
Having received the order, Daoist Rui wanted to rush down to save Ye Jiliu before the flying swords arrived.
Just Now, Zhang Yan had found an opportunity. How could he allow the other party to save him? He spread his sleeves and three hundred and sixty-five Serene Yin Heavy drops flew out at the same time, scattering in all directions.
Everyone had seen the power of this item earlier, so they couldn't care less about attacking the enemy. They had no choice but to stop and protect themselves.
At the same time, Zhang Yan wanted to summon the Stars Sword Pellet back with a thought.
Who knew that the jade ruyi on top of Gong Yangsheng's head was rather marvelous. The brilliance it gave off was like a cage. The Stars Sword Pellet went back and forth a few times, but when it reached the edge, it couldn't rush out.
Gong Yangsheng waved his sleeves to block all the Serene Yin Heavy Water. Coincidentally, he saw this scene and couldn't help smiling.
Five hundred years ago, during the battle with Shaoqing in the Middle Pillar State, he was lucky to escape with his life. Since then, after witnessing the power of the flying swords, he had been thinking about how to defend against them.
This jade ruyi was refined to trap flying swords. Even if the Shaoqing Sect disciples personally came to kill him with their flying swords, he was confident that he could restrain them.
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows. Ever since he stepped into the Yuanying realm, the Sword Kinesis Technique he learned could no longer keep up with his current cultivation base. Thus, he didn't rely on it as his main method. Originally, he wanted to find a chance to kill Ye Jiliu with his sword, but now it seemed that it wouldn't work.
However, he had many methods now. Even if he didn't use this method, he didn't believe that he couldn't take down this person.
However, with this delay, the other elders of Lie Xuan Sect also blocked the Serene Yin Heavy Water and regained their breaths.
Gong Yangsheng didn't hesitate either. He secretly made a hand seal and a black iron ruler flew out from the top of his head. When the others saw that he had already made his move, they followed suit and took out their own magic treasures and attacked Zhang Yan at the same time.
A cold light flashed in Zhang Yan's eyes. He waved his sleeves and scattered more than fifty Scarlet Thunder Beads. The Water Element True Light around him rose and flew up, lifting these magic treasures. Immediately, white foam splattered and thousands of jade waves were smashed.
Among these magic treasures, because the iron ruler was the first to open a path and it was controlled by its owner with all his strength, it was difficult for the Water Element True Light to sweep and retract it. However, with the continuous flow of the water and the back and forth of the waves, it slowed down the momentum of the magic treasures.
When Gong Yangsheng saw dozens of Scarlet Thunder Beads flying towards him, he thought that it was still the Serene Yin Heavy Water and was about to block it like Just Now. However, when it was right in front of him, his expression suddenly changed and he roared, "Dodge!"
At first, the others were the same as him and didn't think much of it. When they heard his warning, they knew that this thing was definitely not simple. However, if they wanted to dodge now, it would be too late. They could only take out their protective magic treasures and brace themselves to withstand it.
Waves of earth-shaking tremors came from the cloud, as if the sky was collapsing. Even with the protection of magic treasures, the five people, including Gong Yangsheng, were still blasted to the point that their blood and Qi were boiling. Their clothes were torn and they were in a sorry state. They only managed to stop after retreating for a few miles.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Yan pointed with his hand and gathered the three hundred and sixty-five drops of Serene Yin Heavy Water in one place again, which then rushed towards Ye Jiliu like a torrent.
On the other side, Daoist Rui was close to Ye Jiliu and was about to join forces with him to deal with the Five-spirit White Carp Shuttle. However, when he heard the rumbling behind him, he turned around and was startled. He quickly took out a banner and shook it against the wind. It grew to a height of fifty feet and he placed it in front of him.
Just the dozens of drops of Serene Yin Heavy Water were enough to make them unable to defend themselves, not to mention that they were all here at the moment. In just a few breaths, the banner was smashed into pieces.
He hastily abandoned it and took out another Jade Talisman, but it only lasted for a short while before it shattered. The remaining twenty percent of Serene Yin Heavy Water smashed onto the protective treasure light, causing his body to shake violently and the light to disperse. He spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and fell down.
Zhang Yan took a step forward, and like a flickering light, he crossed the distance of a hundred feet in a flash. When he reappeared, he was less than thirty feet away from Ye Jiliu. He raised his hand and pointed forward. A bolt of purple lightning seemed to sweep through the clear sky and burst forth with a loud bang.
Ye Jiliu was also a courageous person. He knew that there was no way he could survive if he tried to dodge now, so he gritted his teeth and did not retreat. Instead, he gathered all his magic power in one place and brazenly raised the Dragon Centipede Sword. A streak of silver light flashed like lightning and charged toward Zhang Yan, hoping to kill this formidable enemy first.
However, as soon as the magic sword flew out, the Five-spirit White Carp Shuttle shot out from the side with a whistling sound and knocked it aside.
At this moment, the Purple Heaven Thunderbolt was already right in front of him. Ye Jiliu's protective treasure light had already been broken, and his magic sword had fallen out of his hand. In the face of this killing divine ability, he had no way to defend himself. He did not even have the time to let out a scream before his entire body exploded into dust with a loud bang.
Daoist Rui was terrified at the sight of such a miserable state. Seeing that Zhang Yan had his back to him, he turned and ran without hesitation. He had not gone far when a fine golden light as thin as a gossamer caught up to him. It only flashed once on his body before it disappeared.
He ran another hundred feet before his body suddenly stiffened. With a loud cry, his body was split into two at the waist and he fell from the sky.
