This was the battle that Xiao Lingyu had to face alone. He was also the strongest opponent he had ever faced.
The old man's cultivation level was much higher than Xiao Lingyu's. Although the advantage in cultivation level was not obvious in this special battle arena, the old man's attacks were definitely not inferior to Xiao Lingyu's. Furthermore, the speed of his attacks was much faster than Xiao Lingyu's.
Xiao Lingyu's attacks were almost useless against the old man. On the other hand, the old man's attacks hit Xiao Lingyu every time.
Xiao Lingyu was at an absolute disadvantage. He could not retaliate at all. If not for his strong body, he would have died on the spot.
The spatial pressure was getting stronger. Not only did Xiao Lingyu's speed decrease, but even the old man was much slower than before.
Moreover, an hour had passed since the battle began. Although Xiao Lingyu's injuries had worsened, the jade slip above the old man's head had also dimmed and fallen into his body. It was unknown whether it was because of the exhaustion of energy, or because the external pressure was too great, or because of the restrictions of the formation.
The old man's sinister face turned even uglier. He said in surprise, "To think that even Divine Spiritual Treasures would be restricted. I was too naive."
The jade slip sank into his body. The old man's body was no longer enveloped by the golden light. The erosion of the array's state of mind and consciousness would naturally affect him as well.
"I have to end this battle quickly!"
The old man finally stopped dodging and attacking passively. He took the initiative to attack. Xiao Lingyu pounced at him. He endured the immense spatial pressure and met him head-on.
Bang!
The old man kicked out, and Xiao Lingyu's body flew back dozens of feet.
Xiao Lingyu landed on the hard stone platform and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. However, he quickly stood up.
Unfortunately, just as he stood up, the old man came at him again and punched him in the chest.
Bang!
Xiao Lingyu was sent flying again. However, he stood up again.
Bang! Bang! Bang …
In the next two hours, the old man repeatedly attacked Xiao Lingyu. However, every time he was knocked down, Xiao Lingyu was able to stand up again.
However, Xiao Lingyu could get up immediately after being knocked down. Later on, he had to crawl on the stone platform for a while before he could get up.
The reason for this was not only because his injuries were getting worse, but also because the spatial pressure was too strong.
The speed of the old man's attacks was naturally much slower. Moreover, in just a short two hours, fine veins had appeared in his eyes, and there was a faint blood-red glow on his body.
"Go to hell, brat!"
Xiao Lingyu stood up again. The old man roared as he knocked him down again.
However, the old man was already showing signs of madness. It seemed that he had also been eroded by the formation, and his state of mind was no longer stable.
Xiao Lingyu could only passively take a beating. He could not dodge the old man's attacks. Therefore, the increasing spatial pressure was beneficial to him.
The old man's attack speed had decreased. Not only did it reduce the number of times Xiao Lingyu was hit, but it also reduced the old man's strength.
The old man's attacks were getting weaker and weaker.
Xiao Lingyu could withstand the old man's attacks. Although Xiao Lingyu's injuries were very serious, Xiao Lingyu could still withstand the old man's attacks.
Xiao Lingyu's body had been tempered thousands of times. He had been severely injured, tortured, and destroyed countless times. Even if he was seriously injured, he would not collapse.
"If this continues, I'll be dragged into a state of madness by this kid. He might even exhaust me to death!"
The old man made up his mind. Although he had not lost his mind, he crushed a specially made bag.
After the bag was crushed, a golden light shone out.
The golden light circled in front of him and turned into a golden-armored puppet.
The golden-armored puppet was ten feet tall. It was clad in golden armor, held a golden spear, wore a golden helmet, and wore golden boots. It looked mighty and extraordinary.
"Kill him!"
The old man shouted at the golden-armored puppet.
The golden-armored puppet was very obedient. Although its eyes were empty, its steps were steady and firm. It waved the spear in its hand and stabbed it at Xiao Lingyu.
Although Xiao Lingyu still had the instinct to dodge the attack, his injuries were too serious. The spatial pressure here was too great. His shoulder was still pierced by the spear.
There was already a wound on his shoulder, and the spear happened to pierce the wound. He immediately felt pain. However, this pain did not affect him much because he was in a state of madness. He grabbed the golden spear with a sinister smile and pulled it out of his shoulder.
"Haha, you have a helper, but so do I!"
Xiao Lingyu laughed maniacally. Then, he slapped himself, and eight black lights immediately flew out.
The eight black lights circled for a while and turned into eight black-armored clones.
If the old man had not released the golden-armored puppet, Xiao Lingyu, who was in a state of madness, would not have thought of his black-armored clones at all.
The eight black-armored clones circled above the Chaotic Divine Infant all year round. When Xiao Lingyu was cultivating in seclusion in the Chaotic Spectrum, he often used the Chaotic Primordial Fire to temper the eight clones. Now, the strength of the clones' bodies was not inferior to Xiao Lingyu's.
The eight black-armored clones did not participate in the battle earlier. Although they were affected by the injuries of their original bodies and their strength was slightly reduced, they were not injured and were in very good condition.
Whether it was the golden-armored puppet or the eight black-armored clones, they were naturally restricted by the spatial pressure. However, there were eight black-armored clones after all, and only one golden-armored puppet.
The golden-armored puppet did not have the strength of the old man. Moreover, it was already surrounded by the eight black-armored clones. Under the attacks of the eight clones, it only lasted for less than a hundred breaths before collapsing.
The golden-armored puppet was also not as tenacious as Xiao Lingyu. After it collapsed, it was unable to stand up again. Even the spear in its hand was snatched away by one of the black-armored clones.
The old man did not stop. As his golden-armored puppet was defeated, he struck Xiao Lingyu a few more times, but the effect was minimal.
When the eight black-armored clones finished off the golden-armored puppet and surrounded Xiao Lingyu, the old man finally realized the severity of the problem. His expression changed again and again, and he actually gave up on continuing to attack. While he was still conscious, he left the stone platform.
The old man moved with all his strength and quickly landed on the platform. He then climbed up the stone steps that surrounded the city and climbed to the top.
This Divine Master cultivator actually wanted to flee without a fight, and even wanted to escape from the siege.
The demons formed by the blood mist that were originally roaring on the stone steps pounced on the old man.
The old man was also valiant. He constantly waved his arms and beat the demons into clouds of blood mist.
However, there were too many demons in the siege. They crazily surged over and caused great trouble for the old man. The old man climbed the stone steps very slowly.
The old man was already very irritated and angry when he could not defeat Xiao Lingyu for a long time. In addition, the formation here was corroding his mind, and he was on the verge of madness. Now that he was surrounded and attacked by the demons, his state of mind fell even faster.
Before he reached the top of the siege, he had already lost his state of mind and had completely sunk into madness.
When the old man was escaping, Xiao Lingyu, who was in a state of madness, wanted to chase after him. However, he was heavily injured and suppressed by the great force, so he could not move at all.
After falling into madness, the old man naturally would not go to the top of the siege. Moreover, the demons deliberately blocked him, causing him to change direction and return to the stone platform.
Once on the stone platform, the old man brazenly charged at Xiao Lingyu. His attacks were no longer as steady and methodical as before.
At first, the old man was still able to maintain his speed advantage, but gradually, his movements slowed down. In the end, the old man slowly approached the eight black-armored clones and was firmly held down by them and pressed against the stone platform.
Then, the irrational Xiao Lingyu and the eight black-armored clones tore at the old man's body like ferocious beasts. They even used their teeth to bite him like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.
The old man was the same. He also wanted to bite back, but his limbs and head were firmly held down by the clones. He was the one who could not move at all.
This old man was destined to be one of the most tragic Empyrean experts in the Divine Realm. Not only did he die in battle on this stone platform, he died in an incomparably miserable manner. No one could imagine that a Empyrean Empyrean expert would be eaten alive by someone else.
The old man's Divine Infant was naturally not spared. His Divine Infant was much weaker than his physical body, and it was even more delicious to Xiao Lingyu, who was in a state of madness.
After his physical body and Divine Infant were eaten piece by piece, the old man's Divine Soul Golden Pearl was not chewed because it was too tough. However, the Soul Power contained in it was slowly dissipating.
Without his physical body and Divine Infant, the consciousness in the Divine Soul Golden Pearl gradually dissipated. The formation's corrosion of the soul completely seeped into the Divine Soul Golden Pearl without any hindrance.
A Divine Master powerhouse died just like that. Of the cultivators who entered this ancient battlefield from the outside, only Xiao Lingyu was left.
As for the eight black-armored clones, they eventually sank into Xiao Lingyu's dantian because they were under too much pressure.
The spatial pressure was too strong. The heavily injured Xiao Lingyu crawled on the stone platform. Although she struggled with all her might, she could not get up.
After persevering on the stone platform for a while, Xiao Lingyu finally fainted.
Less than four hours after Xiao Lingyu fainted, the encirclement started to shake again. The stone pillars that formed the encirclement began to reassemble.
As the stone pillars reassembled, the demon formed by the blood mist rapidly gathered together and liquefied. Gradually, it turned into a blob of blood water the size of a watermelon.
The strange thing was that after the blob of blood water trembled slightly, it slowly turned into a little blood man that looked like a Nascent Soul.
The little blood man was only half a foot tall, but he appeared to be very agile. He flew around Xiao Lingyu in a circle and actually spoke in human language. He said with great satisfaction, "This body is not bad. Although this fellow has not reached the Divine Master realm, once I recover, cultivation will not be a problem. After waiting for so many years, seeing that this space could no longer hold on, the heavens actually sent me such a good body. My painstaking efforts were not in vain!"
"Once I recover, I will definitely bathe Divine Master Island in blood!"
