The ball of Evil Heart Threads exploded with a loud bang, splashing onto the bodies of the soldiers who were charging over. The generals who were entangled immediately felt their strength leave them. They screamed and fell to the ground. The more they writhed and struggled, the tighter the binding of the broken threads became.
Everyone was stunned. What kind of barrier did the demons set up? Why did it help them?
However, the next moment, they knew that things were not so simple. At the location of the explosion, the void suddenly split open. It was as if a cocoon had been blown apart. While they were still in shock, a large number of Evil Heart Threads suddenly spewed out.
Yan Li frowned and waved Leaving Cliff to cut off a part of the threads that were close to him. The others also knew the power of the Evil Heart Threads and tried to resist them. However, their techniques seemed to be restrained. Huang Shaoyu's dragon claw struck out and his hand was entangled. Not only was it useless, but the part that was entangled would automatically grow and continue to spread to the rest of his body.
He tried to release his True Qi to resist in fear, but found that the Evil Heart Threads were not affected at all. They wrapped around him and he fell to the ground. Gradually, he couldn't even use his True Qi anymore.
Zhuge Xiaoshan saw this and quickly pulled Yan Chaoyang behind him. Because he saw that Yan Li had used a sword to cut it, he guessed that the Evil Heart Threads were afraid of sharp weapons. Just now in the tower, Yan Li had also easily cut the Evil Heart Threads that were binding Yan Shiyi.
"One Green Lotus Sword, Ten Thousand Flowers."
She took a step forward and suddenly pulled out her sword. It produced an extremely exquisite sword force, and one could see the light and shadow of the green lotus, which swept towards the Evil Heart Threads.
However, the Evil Heart Silk bolted over and wrapped around her in an instant.
She was stunned. Before she could stop it, Yan Chaoyang panicked and wanted to help, but he was entangled as well.
In the blink of an eye, except for Yan Shiyi, all the members of the Yanshan Robber team were entangled by the Evil Heart Threads. Seeing this, the enemies who were rushing in from both sides knew that this was a golden opportunity, so they charged forward excitedly.
Everything happened too fast. Yan Li was still observing Zhuge Xiaoshan's Green Lotus Sword Song to see if there was anything he could learn from it. But in the next moment, they were all restricted.
"Dragon Head Yan, when you broke my technique just now, I was very suspicious of the change in the Evil Heart Threads. Now, I have finally verified that the problem lies with you."
Sky Silkworm let out a strange laugh in a corner of the void, "No matter how you broke my Evil Heart Threads, you're the only one saved. So what? Could it be that Yanshan Robber can't even pass the first test? "
"Insignificant skill."
Yan Li snorted coldly, pulled out the Leaving Cliff Sword, closed his eyes slightly, put the fingers of his left hand together as a sword, and slowly drew across the sword. As if something was injected into it, the sword emitted a faint purple light. Then, it condensed completely and suddenly turned into a beam of light, shooting out. In the blink of an eye, a faint purple stripe swept past the enemies who were sneakily attacking their subordinates.
Those generals who could go up to the tower were all first-class experts in the army, including many human immortals. However, even with their lifetime cultivation, they could only hear the sound of the wind. Their five senses couldn't even capture the flying sword's trajectory, and they were pierced by a muffled sound.
One of the generals didn't die immediately. He looked down at the small bloody hole in his chest and shouted in disbelief, "How is this possible?"
The flying sword made a big circle and pierced through the bodies of the enemies on both sides. None of them could escape, because it was too fast. It happened in a split second.
"Remote Sword Control?" Sky Silkworm's surprised voice came from the void.
The Sword Control Technique that he knew could only be infused with a little Vital Qi at most, and that was something that only swordsmen who had entered the Insight Stage for many years could do. If he wanted to improve further, he would have to continue cultivating, and only when he became a land Perfected Immortal would he be able to truly master it.
Huang Shaoyu knew that this was not a simple move, but he couldn't tell what was so special about it at the moment. He suddenly remembered that Yu Qiuyu once told him that the disciples of the Riding Sword Peak had to enter the sect for more than five years before they could master the Third Stage Sword Control Technique, which was to make the flying sword change three times in the air.
However, the real remote sword control was not the Third Stage Sword Control Technique. The real flying sword required the swordsman to infuse all of his essence, Qi, and spirit into it, so that he could take the enemy's head from a thousand miles away. It was a very terrifying move, and it was not something that could be done normally.
He couldn't help but think, "Boss is not a disciple of the Riding Sword Peak, how could he know the Sword Control Technique?"
Yan Li felt that his mind was divided into two parts. One part was in his body, observing the surroundings, and the other was flying with the flying sword, easily piercing through the enemy's body. It was a very strange feeling.
This was the first time he used this method. Ever since he fought against Monk Jiu Rou and forced the birth of the Sword Soul, he had understood it, but he didn't try it until now.
However, these people who died were much worse than Cao Rui. They could be said to be small fries, so naturally it was very easy. What if he were to fight against an expert?
This thought flashed by in a flash. His sword fingers seemed to be drawing, and together with his thoughts, he guided the flying sword to cut the Evil Heart Threads that were binding the people. The Evil Heart Threads were not material, so after losing their foundation, they were destroyed.
Li Ya returned to his side and floated quietly. The power of the Sword Soul on it was still slowly dissipating, and it would only disappear when it completely disappeared.
Of course, he could take it back at will.
But he didn't. He slowly raised his eyes and looked at a corner of the void.
"What a surprise!" Sky Silkworm exclaimed. "You should really call your fellow disciples — those idiots from the Imperial Sword Peak — to come and take a look. I'm afraid they would be so ashamed that they would crawl into the ground."
Yan Li had seen the methods of a Imperial Sword Peak disciple, and it wasn't as bad as Sky Silkworm said. It could only be said that they were on par. He had only obtained the convenience of the Taibai Sword Sutra in advance, and obtained the method of controlling the sword through the air, but it couldn't last long. Now, he didn't have the means to pry into the clues of the next scripture. He tried to take it from the Dragon God Ring, but there was no reaction. He could only conclude that this inexplicable Sword Soul was a key part of it.
"What a coincidence. I learned this method from the Imperial Sword Peak. I'm afraid you had some misunderstanding before, so let me clarify it."
The solidification and control of the Sword Soul all consumed true Qi. However, it was time to verify whether it was this shallow Imperial Sword Technique or Sky Silkworm's strength.
"Go!"
Li Ya followed his thoughts, and his entire body shrank, turning into a pale purple flying sword, and shot toward the direction of the voice.
This was the second attack, and it was obvious that it was like a tornado.
"Good timing!" Sky Silkworm shouted, and a lot of Evil Heart Threads spat out from where he was, forming a white cocoon. He purposely didn't dodge, intending to test the strength of this flying sword, so he used his true essence to make the Evil Heart Threads harder than steel.
Then, there was an indescribable muffled sound, like the sputtering of divine power. A two-colored ring visible to the naked eye radiated out, turning into a strong wind that blew.
In the intense clash, the cocoon had already split open, revealing Sky Silkworm. He was still bent over, and for some reason, his face was dark. However, the flying sword was still blocked outside, unable to break in. After a while …
After a while, he suddenly stretched out his hand, and the flying sword was knocked away by an inexplicable force. It flipped back, and returned to its original form in midair, flying into the distance with a whoosh.
Yan Li felt as if his head had been pricked by a needle, and there was a momentary discomfort. He reached out and grasped the air, and Li Ya returned to his hand. After checking that it wasn't damaged, he sheathed it and waved his hand. "Let's continue!"
He didn't care about Sky Silkworm's existence at all. He led his subordinates and continued to charge in the predetermined direction.
Sky Silkworm gloomily looked in the direction they went. Suddenly, he sank down. His hand grabbed onto the city wall, and he didn't fall. With a light flip, he landed on the horse path.
"You arrogant thing!" His face had indeed been shredded. Because his method of floating in the air relied on an invisible Evil Heart Thread, it had to be built in advance in order to appear unfathomable. However, it was ruined by the confrontation just now, and he had no choice but to fall.
"You won't be arrogant for long!" He quickly laughed sinisterly, and chased after him.
There was still no sign of the next stage of the Mo race.
Huang Shaoyu knocked down a general wearing armor, and found that these people weren't wearing Black Scale Armor. He knew that not everyone could wear that treasured armor. The Dragon Emperor called it "standard" to the outside world, giving people the illusion that it was "mass produced". When he first heard it, he was really frightened, and now he thought it was laughable.
Advancing smoothly made him feel much more relaxed. He said to Yan Li, who was still charging in front, "Boss, what was the result of your fight with that Sky Silkworm? Why doesn't he look very happy when he won? "
"His deliberately showy method was destroyed by me, so of course he's unhappy," Yan Li said.
"He didn't even flare up when his face was shredded. Could it be that he's a tortoise? He's so tolerant." Huang Shaoyu continued to mock him.
Yan Li said, "You should have said it in front of him just now, and then you'd know whether he's the one or not."
"This … forget it …" Huang Shaoyu was annoyed, and didn't say anything else.
The road after that was even more difficult. Troublesome enemy generals appeared one after another, and the resistance was getting stronger. What was worse was that after a few died, some of the smarter ones wandered around the periphery to harass them. They always launched surprise attacks when they weren't paying attention, and immediately ran away when they missed. Yan Li and the others used up a lot of their physical strength and vital energy.
Yan Shiyi wanted to make a move several times, but was stopped by Yan Li. As the most important fighting force, it couldn't be wasted on these small soldiers.
Huang Shaoyu rarely encountered such a situation. After several waves of strong attacks from the enemy, he was so tired that he couldn't even lift his feet. He could only move forward with the help of one of his subordinates. His task was distributed to the others, so the pressure naturally increased, and it was not a small consumption.
Zhuge Xiaoshan knew that Yan Li's instructions and worries at the beginning had come true.
The imperial court had made up their minds to keep them here, and it would be difficult for them to escape this time. She looked at her beloved senior brother and found that his face was still full of determination, as if he wasn't disturbed by the predicament in front of him at all. She couldn't help but admire him secretly. She felt a little ashamed in her heart. Because of her selfishness, he gave up the resentment he had accumulated for many days and chose a safer path.
She was touched by his tolerance. But because of this tolerance, the god-like aura he had outside the Stargazing Tower just now was gone. She knew that she had broken it with her own hands.
She started to seriously consider if she should put more trust in him, and even … bear the cruelest consequences that this trust would bring.
A door suddenly appeared in front of her, interrupting her thoughts.
