As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustling sound from all directions. It was as if something was crawling on the ground, and there were so many of them that they were like a tide. An indescribably vicious aura passed through the gaps in the grass and into everyone's noses.
"This is?" Zhao Derong frowned slightly. He raised his hand to count the time, then lowered his head to look at the bloody mess on the ground. His expression suddenly turned green, and he stared at Yan Shifang with an expression that his fellow disciples had never seen before. He slowly spat out two words.
"Change of season!"
The disciples from the other sects were naturally at a loss, but the disciples from the Five Elements Courtyard understood once they heard it, and their faces turned ashen. It was because the Evil Tooth Forest changed seasons every 30 years, and the Ghost Vipers, known for their large numbers, would migrate en masse. Now that it was almost spring, the Ghost Vipers urgently needed a suitable place to lay their eggs. Yan Li had slaughtered the Evil Tooth along the way, and the smell of blood was fatal to the Ghost Vipers.
The Ghost Vipers had invaded the Evil Tooth's territory and challenged their position as the king of the hunting ground. How could the Evil Tooth Forest let it go? It was bound to cause a bloody battle. And how could they, who were at the center of the fierce battle, stay out of it?
Just as they were thinking, the roars of the Evil Tooth could be heard from further away.
"How do you know about the migration of the Ghost Vipers?" Zhao Derong still could not believe that his plan had failed. He had thought that the other party was only thinking about how to escape, but he had not expected the other party to want their lives.
Of course, Yan Li would not tell the other party that while he was studying sword arts in the Wei Palace and Jixia Academy, he had also crammed up on the local customs and geography of the Jambu Realm. Among them, there was an autobiography that was written by a hunting chief in his later years. As he had once encountered a migrating Ghost Viper and almost lost his life, he emphasized on this point.
"You want to know?" Yan Li said.
Zhao Derong said, "I want to know."
Yan Li said, "I won't tell you what you want to know."
Zhao Derong said with a solemn face, "Yan Shifang, we are not children anymore. Even if you beat me this time, so what? You are also in it. We have the first seat, so our lives are not in danger.
How could he escape? Could it be that you purposely forced yourself into a desperate situation and died in the hunting grounds so that you could escape the torture of the Double Nine Extreme Punishment? "As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately felt that it was unnecessary and very unprofessional. If Yan Li wanted to avoid the torture of the Double Nine, he only needed to let Su Xiaojian kill him with a sword, or he could end himself in the Five Elements Great Formation.
"Enjoy it slowly." Yan Li grinned and leaped backward, landing in the middle of the swarm of snakes that had discovered the raw meat.
"Chief, we absolutely can't let him escape. Otherwise, the Five Elements Court will become the laughingstock of the Three Realms!" Zhao Derong saw that everyone was distracted by the Beast Tide and couldn't care less about Yan Li, so he quickly shouted.
In the hearts of every disciple of the Five Elements Court, carrying out the Double Nine Punishments was a sacred and unique task. It was a mission that even the Dao Court couldn't accomplish, so they all took pride in it.
"He can't escape!" Liu Tang was always paying attention to Yan Li's movements and didn't care about the Beast Tide at all. At this moment, he moved his hands and casually made a Tianji Seal. The rich star power in the surroundings was affected, and ropes of five different colors spread out densely. Wherever the ropes passed, the Ghost Vipers were directly minced into minced meat by the powerful Five Elements Yuan Power. When the ropes were taut, a huge cage suddenly appeared in front of everyone, blocking Yan Li's escape route.
Yan Li didn't stop charging forward. Borrowing the momentum, he pulled out his sword and slashed. "Dang!" The sound of metal and stone colliding was heard, and sparks burst out. The thin rope cage was as hard as steel, and it didn't fall into a disadvantage even when fighting against a Precious Weapon. Naturally, the escape route was cut off. If he tried to force his way in, how could his body fight against it? He might even save his opponent the energy to dismember his body.
"You guys work together to deal with the Beast Tide. Remember, don't split up. After I catch that guy, I'll help you guys escape!" As soon as Liu Tang finished speaking, he didn't wait for the others to agree and rushed towards Yan Li, determined not to give him any chance.
Yan Li turned his head and looked at Liu Tang who was rushing towards him and making a hand seal. He sighed and said in a low voice, "Song of Broken Jade, I'm sorry!" Then he took out his flying sword.
The Song of Broken Jade was in the form of granular water crystals. When many of them were combined together, they looked like a ribbon in the form of water, very beautiful. In addition, it could be used to escape by using water, so it didn't take much effort. It was a treasure that many female cultivators dreamed of. If one was lucky enough to get such a treasure, he wouldn't know how to cherish it.
Yes. At this moment, it was crying helplessly. Treasures were psychic, and this spirituality was also something that was nurtured by nature. It was normal that it didn't want to be destroyed.
Yan Li grabbed it, intending to destroy it and take the sword spirit to turn into sword aura to fight against Liu Tang. However, at this moment, his emotions were touched, and he realized that a real swordsman would never destroy a sword for his life.
Once a real swordsman held a sword in his hand, there was nothing in the world that he couldn't take, and there was nowhere in the world that he couldn't go. Even if his body died and his soul was destroyed, the pride in his heart could never be erased.
The strength in Yan Li's hand gradually softened. He let go of the Song of Broken Jade and held the Separation Cliff again. He turned to face Liu Tang, and there was not a ripple in his heart. "As long as the sword exists, the person exists." Facing the threat of the huge Qi field, he closed his eyes slightly and sat cross-legged. He placed the Separation Cliff on his knees and his hand on the Separation Cliff. He adjusted his breathing, eliminated all distracting thoughts, and sank into the empty state of forgetting himself.
On that day in his memory, the sky was very blue, the wind was very light, and the crowd was very noisy. On that day, as a mere cultivator, he killed the Cave Master in front of the platform. All the spectators were shocked on the spot. They thought that the world had been turned upside down, and the universe was no longer divided. The weak had killed the strong with absolute strength, and it was really a great disaster in the world. Yes, even if he eliminated everything, he still had one trick.
There were tens of thousands of methods to kill in this world, but only the intent hidden within was the most unforgettable. It was because there was only a single Li Ku in this world. It was because Li Ku only used a single sword to end Giant Deer Realm's life force, making countless creatures die. With a brush stroke that couldn't even be considered beautiful, he drew a sorrowful conclusion to the battle of Deity Fall.
Liu Tang was always paying attention to Yan Li. When he saw his hand grip the sword hilt, his eyelids couldn't help but jump, the scene of their confrontation even more so appearing in his mind. If he thought about it carefully, when he was at his peak, he still faced an opponent who was covered in cuts and bruises and lacking strength, both sides still suffering. Using a draw to judge this was an extremely shameless action. He knew that he was defeated in that confrontation, defeated by a fella who was far inferior to himself.
Meanwhile, right now, he, who was hesitating between helping his fellow disciples after capturing them and having the other party gather their strength to carry out a 'fair' confrontation, couldn't help but slow down his pursuit. This bit of hesitation was precisely the pride within his heart.
"I will give you a chance!" He silently said, and then he stopped.
