"Save me! Save me! I don't want to die here … "
Just as they were moving forward, a faint sound suddenly came from not far away. Wang Chong had been in the middle of controlling the blades in the air, but when he heard this cry, he immediately turned his head.
Not far away, in a pit cut out by countless sharp metal blades, corpses hung in pieces. And in the middle of these corpses was a beautiful female cultivator with disheveled hair. Her face was filled with fear as she knelt in the pit.
Her body was trembling as if she had fallen into the deepest of nightmares.
Martial artists who could reach this depth were not weaklings. That beautiful female martial artist was obviously someone with a profound cultivation. However, in the face of the endless attacks of that huge metal storm, no matter how high her cultivation was, no matter how deep her internal strength was, it would still be consumed.
Xiu, xiu, xiu, a series of ear-piercing whistling sounds came from above the pit. Countless metal blades shot down from above like a torrential rain. The attack range included the female martial artist who had fallen into fear and was trembling all over, completely unaware of the danger around her.
If all went as expected, this person was doomed.
But a moment later, Wang Chong spread open his fingers, and the metal storm that had been descending on the woman began to crash into her like a chain of dominoes. It was like there was an invisible barrier over the woman's head, and in the end, all of the blades flew past her head and struck ten-some meters away.
With an earth-shattering explosion, the area a dozen meters away from the woman was instantly reduced to dust. Large amounts of rocks and debris fell down one after another. Even the walls of the cave were shaking violently. The sound was extremely loud.
The violent explosion finally roused the female martial artist from her endless fear. She raised her head and immediately saw Wang Chong's group above her.
"Save me!"
At that moment, the woman's eyes exploded with an intense desire to live.
Without another word, Wang Chong used the energy of the Energy Condensation Pearl to exert a powerful attractive force that pulled the female martial artist over to his side.
"If you don't want to die, swallow this pill and recuperate as soon as possible. I can only help you for a while. The rest is up to you. "
Wang Chong's voice rang in the woman's ear, and at the same time, he quickly handed over a pill.
"Thank, thank you …"
The woman was still in a state of shock and couldn't speak properly. She took the medicinal pill from Wang Chong's hand and stuttered as she stuffed it into her mouth with great difficulty. Then, she quickly adjusted her breathing. In just a moment, her face was rosy again.
Wang Chong didn't say much. He grabbed the woman and continued to follow his Master without stopping.
The damage caused by this metal storm was unimaginable to everyone. Wang Chong and his two disciples leapt forward. The smooth walls of the pit had become bumpy and uneven, and human organs and muscle remains were hanging everywhere.
In this wave of attacks, a rough estimate was that at least thousands of people had died under these sharp blades.
At that moment, many people finally understood the meaning of the stone tablet at the entrance of the pit, saying that there was no door to fortune or disaster.
"Ah! My leg! "
"How could this be? I don't want to die here! "
"Save me, quickly save me!"
…
As Wang Chong moved forward, he saw many martial artists' abandoned 'on both sides of the huge pit. The reason why these people could escape was purely due to luck. But for these people, the shadow of death followed them like a shadow, and every one of them could die at any time.
Wherever Wang Chong went, as long as he saw them, he would save these people and bring them to his side.
At the beginning, there were only three people by Wang Chong's side, but in just a few hundred meters, there were at least forty to fifty idle martial artists gathered behind Wang Chong and the others, and this number was still increasing.
Four hundred meters, five hundred meters, eight hundred meters, one thousand meters … Wang Chong and the others continued to move deeper into the pit. At this moment, the distance between them and the surface had reached a depth of eight to nine thousand meters. At this depth, the air was extremely thin and there was no light. Eyes were practically useless in this region, and one could only rely on Psychic Energy and perception to advance.
But even so, the storm of metal howling overhead like a school of sharks showed no signs of stopping.
"What a pity. If only Brother Zhou were here. With his experience and knowledge, he would definitely know where the mechanism controlling these metal blades is."
As he was thinking, Chief Wushang's voice came from the darkness. They were in a perilous situation, and no one knew how far the metal storm could cover or how long it would take for them to escape the range of the blades.
"If my guess is correct, there should be a large-scale ancient formation at the very bottom of the pit and the two sides. The activation and deactivation of all the formations should be controlled by this formation. "
"And Senior Zhou once said that this is a Universe Layout. All the energy accumulated over thousands of years was taken away by the Origin Immortal Lord's formation, so that energy is probably stored here. And it's ten times, one hundred times stronger than the Origin Immortal Formation we encountered before. Given our abilities, there's no way to cut off the source of energy! "
Wang Chong sternly said. Of all the people present, he was probably the only one with some understanding of formations.
"Can't we just break through the walls, dig into the ground, and destroy the formation?"
A martial artist behind Wang Chong suddenly said.
"It's useless. All of you have experienced the Origin Immortal Formation, so you should know that the Origin Immortal Lord would never leave such a flaw. If we forcefully dig in and use brute force to destroy the formation, not only will we fail, the metal storm will gain even more energy and become even more powerful! "
Wang Chong gravely said.
The moment he said this, the martial artists all paled. Many of them had experienced the terror of the Origin Immortal Formation. It was like a meat grinder, and anyone who entered the formation would be pulled toward the center until they were pulverized.
If the formations embedded in the depths of the cave walls were the same, then their actions would have the opposite effect.
"Forcefully destroying the formation is out of the question! In our current situation, we can only continue forward and pass through the area covered by the metal blades. I'm confident that no matter how long this area is, there has to be an end. Otherwise, we can only wait for the metal blades to pass and rely on our luck to survive. "
"No matter how powerful an attack is, it must have a weakness and a pattern. Although this metal storm is very powerful, I feel like this attack can't continue endlessly. Once it reaches a certain level, it will slowly weaken until it completes the cycle of attack."
Wang Chong sternly said.
Although Wang Chong had no idea about the metal blades above his head, Wang Chong knew about formations. As long as the metal storm was being driven by a formation, it would follow a set pattern.
"Is there really no other way?"
One of the martial artists Wang Chong had saved stared at the countless metal blades flying over his head, a hint of despair in his eyes. The feeling of death followed him like a shadow, almost suffocating him. Although Wang Chong's strength was truly admirable, and the strength displayed by the trio was extremely powerful, no one knew how long this peace would last.
But no one knew how long this peace would last.
The slightest carelessness would lead to thousands of blades howling down, and they could be diced into meat paste at any moment.
In the face of this massive metal storm, martial artists like them were nothing more than ants, far too weak.
"Let me think."
Wang Chong silently raised his head, a pensive look in his eyes as he looked at the dancing metal blades.
… …
At the same time, Wang Chong's group was far from the only ones under attack.
"Bastard! Which bastard triggered the mechanism!?"
Elsewhere, several thousand meters away from Wang Chong's group, the Black Yin Ancestor and the others were also crouched in a depression, their teeth clenched. He had long ago noticed the metal blades floating in the air in these pits. The Black Yin Ancestor didn't have to be a genius to know that this was a dreadful mechanism.
He had originally planned to wait until he had passed this area before sending someone to trigger the mechanism and deal with the martial artists behind him. But to his surprise, before he could give the order, some fool had already triggered the mechanism and unleashed that dreadful attack.
In a flash, the Five Ancestor Alliance had lost many experts. If he had not reacted promptly, half of his people would have died.
"Ancestor, is there really no way to undo these mechanisms?"
One of the Five Ancestor Alliance experts suddenly asked. His eyes were brimming with fear as he stared at the blades flying toward him.
"Impossible! Do you think that this ancestor doesn't want to deal with this metal storm? This isn't something that can be done by human strength! That old bastard, the Origin Immortal Lord, has gathered all the spiritual energy in a radius of several thousand li for more than one thousand years. This isn't something that martial artists can contend against. "
The Black Yin Ancestor clenched his teeth and cursed.
"There's nothing to be done. Human strength cannot contend against the power of nature. We can only force our way through! "
With these words, the Black Yin Ancestor immediately pushed the Stellar Energy in his body to the limit, doing his best to envelop the Five Ancestor Alliance experts around him. Although they had suffered an unimaginable attack, the Five Ancestor Alliance members still had the upper hand. Because they had entered the pits ahead of the others, they were bound to suffer much less damage.
Clangclangclang!
The sharp blades flew through the air like a storm. In the face of this metal storm, all of them took the same measures as the Black Yin Ancestor. To the crowd, it was also impossible for them to break through the metal storm.
