[PS: Update complete.]
Chu Li suddenly disappeared from the spot and escaped from the crowd's attack. The next moment, he appeared behind the crowd and swung his arms.
At such a close distance, the elders could not dodge in time due to the Light Blade's incredible speed. They could only avoid being hit in their vital spots.
However, Chu Li usually attacked one person with two blades. The first and second blade arrived almost at the same time. The Manifestation of Nature Restoration and the Omniscient Mirror worked together to predict their movements and dodging routes. If they could dodge the first blade, they would not be able to dodge the second. If they wanted to dodge the second blade, they would not be able to dodge the first blade. The distance between them and Chu Li and the speed of the Light Blade determined that they only had two choices.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk …" Chu Li flashed like a phantom. His blade energy was as sharp as a tangible blade light.
Four of the ten old men fell in the blink of an eye, and the remaining six formed a sword formation. The sword lights were integrated into one, forming a circular wall of light that protected them in the middle, leaving no place for them to attack.
Chu Li frowned at them and did not know what to do.
Sun Yucheng let out a sigh of relief and smiled.
Elder Su and Elder Ren frowned.
Elder Su quickly called out, "Young Zhao, don't rush in!"
Based on his rich experience, he felt that the six elders had set up a trap to lure Chu Li into their midst. It was not difficult for Chu Li to do so given his martial arts skills, but they must have a trump card waiting for Chu Li to rush in.
Chu Li nodded. "Understood."
The six elders rushed toward Chu Li. Their feet fluttered in the air, and even while they were fluttering, their swords were still as one. There were no openings at all, and Chu Li was forced to retreat.
They were not fast enough to catch up with Chu Li, but they kept chasing after him.
"Elder Ren, let's not idle around!" Elder Su said.
Elder Ren nodded.
The two of them attacked the sword formation with their fists. "Tsk tsk" sounds could be heard as their fist energy was shattered by the sword light.
The force from their fists caused the six elders to slow down and stop pressuring Chu Li.
Chu Li had been thinking of a way to break the formation.
Suddenly, he shot out two energy blades and cooperated with Elder Su and Elder Ren.
"Ding …" One of the long swords stopped for a moment and revealed a flaw.
In just a short while, Chu Li had already seen the flaws. The two slashes hit the weak points, causing the sword formation to slow down and show a hint of sluggishness.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!" Chu Li waved his hands and energy blades shot out like lightning.
The originally sluggish sword formation became more and more sluggish. The six elders' faces turned gloomy.
They used to serve the Mysterious Pavilion, and they rarely left the mountain. They lived in seclusion in the mountains and followed the unspoken rule that centenarians were not allowed to enter the martial arts world. This time, they were asked to leave the mountain by the Mysterious Pavilion to deal with a prince of Dali Dynasty.
Originally, they thought that it would be a piece of cake. After all, the ten of them were experts over a hundred years old. They never expected that the kid in front of them would be so difficult to deal with. They were really unlucky to encounter such a rare genius.
Hundreds of years of tacit understanding had allowed this sword formation to be so powerful, but it could not stop this young man. This made his mind go through a lot of thoughts. Jealousy and anger surged, and his desire to kill Chu Li grew stronger. He wanted nothing more than to stab Chu Li to death with his sword.
However, reality was such that no matter how strong their killing intent was, it was useless.
They looked at each other and understood each other's intentions. Their bodies suddenly shrank.
Bang! An invisible force suddenly spread, and they seemed to have shrunk a little. However, the sword light suddenly increased, and the sluggish sword formation became smooth again. Moreover, it was much more powerful than before. It turned into a shadow and shot toward Chu Li, covering him in it.
Elder Su and Elder Ren were anxious. They were afraid that Chu Li would encounter such a situation. Once he was surrounded by the six elders, the sword formation's power would be maximized. No matter how powerful Zhao Dahe was, he would not be able to withstand it.
Faced with the six elders' sword light, Chu Li suddenly pointed two fingers.
The surging sword light instantly slowed down.
Chu Li used the Petrifying Finger.
"Tss, tss, tss, tss!" Four cold lights shot out.
Two elders covered their throats and fell. The sword formation of the six was instantly broken.
"Ah …" The other four elders roared and waved their swords in a frenzy. Even under such circumstances, the four elders' sword light was still as one. It engulfed Chu Li like a storm, and it was everywhere, trying to tear him into pieces.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared from where he was and shot out two energy blades again.
"Ding ding …" With a clear sound, the four elders' sword light slowed down again.
Elder Su and Elder Ren's fist force also arrived and took advantage of the situation.
With this delay, Chu Li shot out his flying blade again. With the help of the Nature Restoration Manifestation and the Omniscient Mirror, it hit an elder.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other three elders turned around and fled like three wisps of smoke.
Chu Li scoffed and disappeared from where he was. He then appeared in front of an elder and shot out his flying blade and the Petrifying Finger at the same time. Soon, he killed one of them. Then, he disappeared again and appeared behind the second elder.
If the three elders had joined forces to form a sword formation, they could have lasted a little longer. Now that they were separated, they were no match for Chu Li even if they activated their secret skills. Chu Li defeated them one by one and killed them with the Light Blade.
Elder Su and Elder Ren looked at Chu Li strangely.
These were ten hundred to two-hundred-year-old masters, and they were the hardest to kill. However, they could not even withstand a single blow from Chu Li. This Zhao Dahe was too terrifying. It was no wonder that he could kill the Holy Church of Light's Altar Leader.
Such a master had a bright future and would definitely become a high-ranking member of the Holy Church of Light in the future.
Chu Li returned to Sun Yucheng's side and turned to give a fist salute in the direction of Ascending Dragon Mountain.
A white cloud rose from the depths of the bamboo forest. Then, Xu Miaozhu, the Palace Mistress of Vast Cold Palace, appeared on top of a bamboo branch. She nodded gently before she rose again and disappeared into the depths of the bamboo forest.
"It seems that the Palace Mistress is cold on the outside but warm on the inside." Sun Yucheng smiled.
Chu Li glanced at him and sighed. "Young Master, we might not be able to enter the bamboo hut the next time we come."
"Huh?" Sun Yucheng was startled and looked nervous.
Chu Li said, "The Heavenly King Palm is our repayment for saving our lives. They won't make an exception to let us enter Vast Cold Palace next time."
"We shouldn't have come down!" Sun Yucheng shook his head in frustration.
This was a rare opportunity. Why not stay in the bamboo hut for a while? Time breeds love, and the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first. He did not believe that he could not win Liu Di's heart with his casual demeanor.
Chu Li smiled.
Elder Su said, "Young Master, we can't delay any longer. We have to leave now!"
"Alright, let's go!" Sun Yucheng scoffed.
They used their body techniques and sped away, ignoring the ten elders lying on the ground. They did not even care if they were dead or not.
Chu Li knew that they were already dead. This time, Mysterious Pavilion's vitality was greatly damaged. However, he was not in a hurry to make a move. He wanted to master the Heavenly King Palm first.
Once he mastered the Heavenly King Palm, his combat strength would increase greatly, and he would have a higher chance of defeating Mysterious Pavilion.
Mysterious Pavilion's vitality was indeed damaged, but it was still a powerful organization of a nation with deep influence. There might even be a super master guarding it. The more combat strength he had, the higher his chances of success would be.
His mind was completely occupied by the Heavenly King Palm. He was immersed in it to feel the wonders of the Heavenly King Palm.
