"Five against one, yet you were still injured. What's the use of keeping you?"
Zhulong's voice was cold. Among the Reincarnators, he clearly held the highest authority. Qiongqi and Sheji lost their temper after being berated by him. The remaining three Reincarnators were even more fearful, as though they were afraid that Zhulong would punish them.
They were all Reincarnators, but the difference in strength was huge. After all, as long as one cultivated the "Heavenly Dao Reincarnation Grand Art", they would be a Reincarnator. And the talent of these people was very different. The number of times they reincarnated would also affect their strength.
Zhulong looked at Jiang Xiaorou. At this moment, Jiang Xiaorou's hair was disheveled and blood was seeping from the corner of her mouth. The ancient runes on her face flickered and lit up as though they were alive.
"Pa! Pa! Pa!
Zhulong looked at Jiang Xiaorou and suddenly clapped.
"You are truly a genius. Compared to you, most of the people in my Heavenly Law Union are not worth mentioning. Unfortunately … I still have to destroy you. "
As Zhulong spoke, space fluctuated behind him as a spatial rift appeared out of thin air.
"Roar! Roar! "
The roar of a ferocious beast came from the spatial crack, as if some ancient vicious beast was sealed in this space.
The spatial crack gradually expanded, and through it, people could see several scarlet eyes.
"Bang bang bang!"
Intense sounds resounded one after another. The imprisoned primordial desolate beast used its claws and sharp fangs to tear at the edges of the spatial door. Very soon, it broke free from the spatial crack.
Everyone could clearly see that it was a gigantic Cerberus the size of a house.
The Hell Hound's fur was black and red, like rocks that had been heated red by lava. After the Hell Hound appeared, its three heads and six eyes all stared at Jiang Xiaorou!
"I heard that you are able to control the dead snake skeleton with a strand of your soul. I want to see if you can control this Hell Hound."
Zhulong said playfully to Jiang Xiaorou with a smile on his face.
Jiang Xiaorou stood on the peak of a black mountain. She gripped her whip tightly as a cold light flickered in her eyes.
For Torch Dragon to summon this hellhound and say such words, he was naturally filled with confidence.
Even so, Jiang Xiaorou still wanted to give it a try.
Zhulong was confident, but so was Jiang Xiaorou. Her ability to communicate with fierce beasts far exceeded a typical member of the Desolate race.
With a single thought, her soul force gathered at the space between her eyebrows. Her divine sense shot out like a sharp arrow, striking the center of the hell hound's eyebrows!
However, upon entering the three-headed Hell Hound's sea of soul, Jiang Xiaorou's heart gave a jolt.
This ferocious beast's Soul Sea was like a magma hell. Wailing ghosts danced wildly everywhere, and seething killing intent filled the air.
Peng!
Jiang Xiaorou's divine sense exploded within the Hell Dog's sea of soul. The resulting backlash caused Jiang Xiaorou's body to shudder and an unnatural flush appeared on her face.
When members of the Desolate race attempted to control desolate beasts, if they did not have enough strength, such as a weak member of the Desolate race trying to control a primordial species, they would suffer a backlash from the desolate beast's soul power.
However, this situation had never happened to Jiang Xiaorou. Jiang Xiaorou had even obtained the recognition of the Desolate race's Sacred Spirit. With the Sacred Spirit's power in her body, Jiang Xiaorou was the Divine Wilderness's queen. All the desolate beasts in the Divine Wilderness would submit to Jiang Xiaorou.
"What a pity." Zhulong shook his head. "You sure are stubborn. Unfortunately, this three-headed Hell Dog is an ancient life form that comes from the God Burial Abyss. It is not an ordinary desolate beast from the Tian Yuan world, so how can you control it?"
When Zhulong said this, not only Jiang Xiaorou, even the other Desolate race and Human race cultivators were stunned. An ancient life form that came from the God Burial Abyss?
There was an ancient life form in the God Burial Abyss?
The God Burial Abyss was synonymous with a land of death in the hearts of the people of the Tian Yuan world. No matter who entered the God Burial Abyss, there was no way for them to return. However, now, they had heard from Zhulong that there was an ancient life form in the God Burial Abyss. How could they not be shocked?
An existence that could survive in the God Burial Abyss had to be extremely powerful!
"Kill her!"
Zhulong coldly gave the order. The Hell Dog roared and charged at Jiang Xiaorou.
"You attack too!"
Zhulong said to Young master Fengming. All the Heavenly Blood Union's elites were mobilized. Zhulong wanted to finish Jiang Xiaorou in the shortest time possible.
"Alright!"
Young master Fengming laughed sinisterly. With a metal fan in hand, he charged at Jiang Xiaorou with the three-headed Hell Dog on the left and right.
And at the same time, Sheji also attacked. Two humans and one beast formed a triangular formation to attack!
Jiang Xiaorou was greatly drained from the continuous battles. In addition to her injuries, she was in a life-and-death situation as she fought one against many!
"Lotus flower!"
Young master Fengming gave a clear shout as he suddenly opened his fan. Countless flower petals flew out from the fan.
Each of these flower petals was the size of a baby's palm. Thousands of flower petals gathered in the air, forming a gigantic lotus flower!
Compared to Sheji, who had fought several rounds with Jiang Xiaorou, Young master Fengming had been watching the battle by the side. He was definitely full of stamina, so he attacked with all his might. The pink lotus flower completely enveloped Jiang Xiaorou and the black mountain peak beneath her feet.
The lotus flower spun as its petals were like blades. They sliced towards Jiang Xiaorou from bottom to top.
Ka Ka Ka!
Before the lotus flower arrived, the lotus flower sword Qi arrived first. The black mountain peak was sliced like tofu by the crisscrossing lotus flower sword Qi into rocks of various sizes as they rolled down the mountain!
And at the same time, the three-headed hellhound pounced down. It did not know any laws, and only relied on its powerful body and sharp claws to grab at Jiang Xiaorou's head!
With a pincer attack and Sheji's support, life and death hung by a thread!
At the critical moment, Jiang Xiaorou bit the tip of her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence!
She burned her blood essence and used the power of the Sacred Spirit at the same time!
Four Symbols Formation!
Jiang Xiaorou gave a clear shout as four ancient desolate beasts appeared around her.
Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Azure Flood Dragon, Black Tortoise!
The four desolate beasts roared as they charged towards the three-headed hellhound and Young master Fengming!
Boom! Boom!
Energy exploded as brilliant beams of light connected together, illuminating the dark valley and blotting out the blood moon in the sky!
The energy beams engulfed Jiang Xiaorou, Sheji, Fengming and the three-headed hellhound!
"Young Master!"
Seeing such a flash, Chen Fei's eyes nearly cracked!
At this moment, his organs had been shattered by Zhulong's black energy. The pain was excruciating, but he no longer cared about his injuries. He was only worried about Jiang Xiaorou.
Every activation of the Four Symbols Formation would expend a large amount of Jiang Xiaorou's Yuan Qi. It could basically only be used once in a battle.
However, Jiang Xiaorou had used the Four Symbols Formation a second time, and she had used it consecutively.
Burning her blood essence and overdrafting her Sacred Spirit's power, Jiang Xiaorou no longer considered the consequences.
Peng!
The final energy contained in the beam of light exploded as it radiated in all directions.
"Wu Wu"
The hellhound wailed as it was thrown out by the energy storm. Young master Fengming also retreated. His clothes were torn and his blood was in turmoil. He was momentarily unable to muster his Yuan Qi.
He was alarmed. He never expected that Jiang Xiaorou would still have such astounding combat strength in such a situation. She was able to repel his and the three-headed hellhound's combined attack.
One had to know that Jiang Xiaorou was better at beast taming techniques. If Jiang Xiaorou could tame beasts, it would be hard to imagine how strong her combat strength would be.
Jiang Xiaorou stood on a black mountain peak that had been mostly flattened. Her clothes were stained with blood and her face was pale!
After burning her blood essence, she had lost a great deal of her lifeblood. This was the reason why Jiang Xiaorou's face was pale.
At that moment, Jiang Xiaorou's Yuan Qi was nearly completely depleted. She was in a terrible situation.
She held a bone staff in her hand. The sharp end of the bone staff was stabbed into the rocks. The gem at the tip shimmered with a bewitching sanguine light.
She seemed to be using this bone staff to support her body from collapsing.
"Young Master!"
Chen Fei bit his lips. He hated himself for being too weak. He had failed to preside over the Da Yan Array and was severely injured by Zhulong's attack. He was in a half-dead state, so Jiang Xiaorou had no choice but to fight all the Reincarnators alone.
…
"This witch girl doesn't seem to be able to last much longer."
Someone whispered on the human side.
Jiang Xiaorou's strength left them alarmed. But now, her Yuan Qi was nearly depleted. She did not seem that terrifying.
At that moment, Gongsun Hong's eyes darted around in the crowd. He secretly transmitted his voice to the eight-man team he led. "Let's take this opportunity to attack together. Form a battle formation and kill Jiang Xiaorou!"
"Ah? We attack? "The team members were taken aback.
"This witch girl is already at the end of her rope. Don't forget the rewards for killing her."
Upon mentioning the rewards for killing Jiang Xiaorou, everyone's eyes turned red. Right, rewards!
Not only would there be rewards, there would also be a chance to become famous. Now, after the three-headed hellhound and Young master Fengming's attack, she had expended too much of her energy. It was their chance!
"Attack!"
Gongsun Hong bellowed. His rebuke caused many Heavenly Blood Union warriors to snap out of their daze.
Yes, what were they waiting for? Now was the best opportunity to kill Jiang Xiaorou. The other Desolate race members were just small fries. How many merit points would they receive no matter how many they killed?
"Let's attack too. Kill the Desolate race witch girl!"
"We can't let them get ahead of us!"
In a blink of an eye, twenty Heavenly Blood Union members attacked together. These people were the cream of the crop of the Heavenly Blood Union. Some of them formed a battle formation, while others fought alone. Instantly, saber flashes, sword shadows, and spear flashes formed one after another.
Upon seeing this scene, the eyes of the Desolate race elites turned red!
These humans were extremely despicable to take advantage of others while they were down!
"Protect the Young Master with our lives!"
"Let's fight it out with them!"
Without Chen Fei, the Desolate race's Da Yan formation's strength was greatly reduced. However, at this moment, everyone was determined to die, so the combat power they could produce was greatly increased.
The Da Yan formation was activated once again. A gigantic Skyfox appeared and roared at the sky.
And just as the Skyfox was about to pounce forward, Zhulong's right hand gently waved.
"Whew!"
A second black beam flashed. The black beam tore through the void and shot straight at the Da Yan formation's core.
The scene of Chen Fei being severely injured was repeated once again. The Desolate race elite in the core of the array was a white-dressed female in her twenties. She grunted as her body tumbled down from mid-air. She was like a white butterfly that had lost its wings.
Blood splattered as the female's face turned pale. She was barely breathing.
"Senior Brother … Chen Fei … I …"
The white-dressed female used her elbow to support her body as she spat out a mouthful of blood. She looked apologetically at Chen Fei. She felt guilty for her uselessness. She had taken over Chen Fei's position, but she had not been able to deliver a single attack, nor had she been able to protect their King.
"By sending yourself to death with an identical array formation, do you think you can use this array formation to kill everyone? What utter foolishness! "
Zhulong's cold voice resounded. He had already seen through the Da Yan formation, so cracking it was as easy as flipping his hand.
Be it the heavily injured Chen Fei or the white-dressed female substitute, he no longer looked at them. To him, the two of them were no different from dead people.
"Hahaha! Young master Zhulong is mighty! Invincible! "
"Let us end all of this and leave our names in history!"
The twenty human warriors charged at Jiang Xiaorou. Gongsun Hong was right in front. With a long roar, he pointed his sword at Jiang Xiaorou's snow-white neck.
Seeing that he had succeeded in one strike, Gongsun Hong revealed a hideous smile. And at this moment, a divine beam suddenly lit up in the sky.
The divine beam tore through the sky like a comet. The blood moon in the sky was also obscured by the divine beam!
Oh!?
People were alarmed. Following that, they heard a loud rumbling sound as the divine beam shot towards the twenty plus people!
It was … an arrow!
The divine arrow's momentum was unstoppable. The twenty plus people who were leading the charge were about to kill Jiang Xiaorou, but the arrow brought about a great sense of danger that made their hair stand on end. They felt a chill down their spines!
If they continued attacking with their backs facing the arrow, they would probably end up in a terrible state!
"Block!"
The dozen or so people who were lagging behind turned around. The saber beams and sword shadows that were slashing at Jiang Xiaorou turned around and slashed at the arrow!
These elites all cherished their lives. They still hoped to become Reincarnators, becoming Tian Yuan world's Great Emperors, so how could they bear to die here?
However, as people turned around, there were still some people who charged forward. This was the team that Gongsun Hong was in.
"Hahaha, let them block the arrow. With them blocking the arrow from the back, we will take the Desolate race witch girl's head!"
Gongsun Hong was charging right in front, so his position was the safest. And from his point of view, with the meat shield behind him, as well as the dozen or so of them defending together, even if there were any Desolate race survivors that took the opportunity to sneak up on them, they would definitely be able to withstand it.
Letting others block the arrow while they did the meritorious deed. This was the big winner!
Gongsun Hong was feeling pleased. Just as the sword in his hand was about to land on Jiang Xiaorou, he heard a series of explosions behind him!
Boom! Boom!
Boom! There were Heavenly Blood Union members screaming. Their seemingly gorgeous attacks were like snowflakes meeting the blazing sun when they collided with the arrow. They melted immediately!
The sword beams and saber beams shattered, while the arrow's divine beam continued forward.
Some people were brushed by the divine beam and were immediately severely injured. Their bodies were covered in blood!
It was too fast!
It was so fast that they could not react in time. They could only feel a blinding light in front of them. Following that, the arrow beam had passed them.
In an instant, the dozen or so people behind them were scattered!
These scattered people were like marbles that were sent flying in all directions. And in the middle of them, the arrow beam whistled as it shot straight at Gongsun Hong.
What!?
With the arrow beam at his back and the boundless killing intent, Gongsun Hong felt like he had just woken up from a dream.
Block it!
Gongsun Hong screamed. The eight people in his team formed a battle formation.
However, it was too late.
Their battle formation's protective shield was shattered in an instant. It was like glass that had been struck by a hammer.
One of the human warriors who bore the brunt of the attack screamed as the arrow beam hit him in the abdomen. How could his body withstand such a powerful force? He was split into two by the arrow!
The others were slightly luckier, but they were also injured by the beam and were sent flying.
The arrow beam shot straight at Gongsun Hong.
At the moment of life and death, Gongsun Hong screamed as he released a strength that far exceeded his usual strength. He circulated his Yuan Qi to form a slanted shield.
Gongsun Hong knew that a flat shield that was perpendicular to the arrow beam would definitely shatter. He would suffer the full force of the arrow and be torn to pieces, dying without a complete corpse.
And a slanted shield would dissipate a large amount of the force, allowing him to survive.
Peng!
The arrow beam hit the slanted shield, causing it to shatter. Gongsun Hong felt a powerful force surging towards him! The arrow beam's momentum did not change, but Gongsun Hong was sent flying by the powerful force!
The moment the shield shattered, his right arm was twisted into pieces by the crazy Yuan Qi. One of his arms was twisted into broken bones and flesh.
Ah!
Gongsun Hong let out a heart-wrenching scream. With his arm shredded to pieces, it was nearly impossible to reattach it. And he knew very well what losing an arm meant to a warrior.
Despair!
Pain!
It was unbelievable!
A trial and a sudden attack had caused him to lose an arm. How was this possible!?
"Boom!"
The divine arrow pierced through the black mountain peak. It whistled a hundred feet below Jiang Xiaorou's feet and penetrated the belly of the mountain, but it did not injure Jiang Xiaorou at all.
After it pierced through the black mountain peak, the arrow did not lose its momentum. It continued shooting into the distant darkness and struck a mountain dozens of miles away, resulting in a violent explosion!
A shockwave spread out as the ground trembled. Dust flew everywhere as rocks tumbled down!
The power of a single arrow could reach such a level …
Upon seeing such a terrifying attack, be it the human or Desolate race warriors, they were all stunned.
In their impression, such a terrifying attack could only be produced by many people in a battle formation.
Could there be a third faction that entered the Soul Tomb?
As people were reeling in shock, they saw a youthful looking man standing on a mountain peak five miles away. He held a golden bow in his hand, and he stood there like a javelin.
Beside him, there was a graceful young girl dressed in white.
The two of them seemed to be standing in an alternate dimension at a distance of five miles. It made people tremble just by looking at them.
That arrow from before was shot by the bow-wielding youth?
Was it possible for a single person to produce such an attack?
"They were the ones who broke my arm."
Gongsun Hong's face was pale as he said through gritted teeth. He hugged his broken right arm with one hand. He was furious and indignant. He was filled with hatred. How could he not feel hatred for an arrow that severed his martial path?
"He ruined my life. I must avenge this … Oh, that's not right. I can still reincarnate!"
Suddenly thinking of this, Gongsun Hong heaved a sigh of relief. Reincarnation … As long as he obtained the "Heavenly Dao Reincarnation Grand Technique", he would obtain this secret technique. Even if his body was crippled, it was nothing.
Meritorious service, I want to make meritorious service! I want to obtain Young master Zhulong's appreciation.
As Gongsun Hong was thinking, he suddenly heard someone say, "Isn't the bow-wielding person Jiang Yidao?"
Warriors had very good eyesight. Despite the distance and the dim lighting, they could still see the two people's faces on the mountain peak.
One of them was Jiang Yidao. As for the other person, it was the peerless woman. They did not recognize her.
"What!? Jiang Yidao!? "
Gongsun Hong was completely stunned. When Jiang Yidao first entered the Heavenly Dao Union, he had defeated him with a single saber strike, causing him to lose all face.
"How can it be him? How can he be so strong? And doesn't he use a saber!? "
People knew that Jiang Yidao's strength was extraordinary, but they did not expect him to be this strong.
Twenty Heavenly Blood Union members could not withstand the arrow shot out!
"Jiang Yidao?"
Zhulong looked at Jiang Yidao and frowned.
Ever since Zhulong appeared in the Soul Tomb, this was the first time he frowned. Previously, he had always been composed, as if everything was under his control.
"You sure hid it well … I have to admit that your appearance has given me too many surprises."
Zhulong already knew of Jiang Yidao. Zhulong even knew that before Jiang Yidao entered the Martial Alliance, he had managed to escape unscathed from the combined attacks of the Li Fire Sect and the Shen Tu family clan's Yuan Opening realm Elders. To be able to do that with a Dao Seed realm cultivation level was heaven-defying.
Including this time, the moment Jiang Yidao appeared, he had destroyed the combined attack of twenty Heavenly Blood Union members with one arrow. It was also astounding.
However, Zhulong did not think much of these two points. This was because in the long history of the Tian Yuan world, he had seen geniuses that were more heaven-defying than Jiang Yidao.
Zhulong's so-called "giving him too many surprises" was because of the … soul contract!
Not only Zhulong, even Wei Chiwei and company, who had been forced to sign a soul contract, were dumbfounded.
Why was Senior Brother Jiang able to attack Gongsun Hong? Wasn't this betraying the Martial Alliance …?
According to the rules of the soul contract, once one betrayed, they would immediately be annihilated!
And at this moment, Yi Yun was standing perfectly fine on a mountain peak five kilometers away. Had the soul contract failed?
"Should I feel honored for you to give me the evaluation of being 'surprised'?"
With a golden bow in hand, Yi Yun walked through the void. Boundless energy lingered around his body as pure Yang flames burned beside Yi Yun. Wherever the flames passed, the darkness would be illuminated.
This scene caused the hearts of many human race martial artists to palpitate.
The soul contract had failed on Jiang Yidao. Furthermore, he, who had always used a saber, had suddenly taken out a bow. Furthermore, his archery skills were astounding.
What sort of person was this Jiang Yidao?
Zhulong chuckled and said indifferently, "In this world, there are indeed not many people that can surprise me."
As he spoke, he turned his head and looked towards a corner of the valley. Although he had a smile on his face, there was an additional coldness in his eyes.
"What do you think? Third Inspector … shouldn't you give me an explanation? "
The third Inspector that Zhulong mentioned was the masked man!
Instantly, the masked man became the focus of everyone present.
More than a hundred gazes were cast over as the masked man stood there calmly. His cold and expressionless mask gave people a hair-raising feeling in this scene.
Wei Chiwei, the Chu sisters and company were the closest to the masked man. Zhulong's question gave them a fright.
Could it be that there was a problem with the soul contract that the masked man had signed with Jiang Yidao? Could he have betrayed the Martial Alliance as well?
