According to the normal procedure, Baiyi was supposed to transform as soon as he took off his cloak. As the Void Energy continued to flow into Baiyi's body, the other members of the hunting team sensed something. The Northern Warrior's expression changed drastically. He could feel a terrifying pressure emanating from Baiyi's body, and he felt as if he were a moth flying towards a flame. The Northern Warrior, who had been burning his combat chi to charge at Baiyi, stopped in his tracks. He turned around and prepared to flee.
Suddenly, Baiyi froze. The Void Energy in his body was converted to the most basic form of mana, and it gushed out like a torrent. The Special Shapeshifting technique, which was supposed to be his trump card, had suddenly been reduced to the most basic form of mana, which was completely harmless to Baiyi.
"What's wrong?" The Warrior, who had been observing Baiyi, asked in a low voice.
"Strange … Something's not right." Baiyi shifted his gaze away from the Northern Warrior and scanned his surroundings. "There's something …" Before he could finish his sentence, he felt a wave of scorching combat chi rushing towards him. He was forced to stop talking and took a few steps back.
The Northerner suddenly sensed that the terrifying aura around him had disappeared. Although he did not know what had happened, he knew that he would not let go of such a heaven-sent opportunity. Seizing the opportunity, the Northerner lunged at the Northerner again. The other members of the hunting team reacted immediately and joined the Northerner's attack.
"Everyone! Don't hold anything back anymore! This opponent is terrifying! Everyone, give it your all! " The Northern warrior's green Combat Aura was so thick that it almost looked solid. It coalesced into the shape of a long blade in his hand. Gripping the blade with both hands, the Northern warrior unleashed a high-level Northern Blade Art. The Northern warrior swung the blade at high speed, stirring up the air around him. The Northern warrior's Combat Aura left afterimages in the air, and soon, the Northern warrior's Combat Aura formed the silhouette of a ferocious tiger. The Northern Warrior's terrifying aura made him look like a ferocious tiger descending from the mountains, and he lunged at Baiyi.
"Howling Tiger Blade? This kind of murderous blade technique from the military formation can actually combine so perfectly with the Azure Cloud Sect's Blazing Flame Qi Shield. This person's strength is really extraordinary … "The Martial Artist gave a simple comment at the side and continued," What's wrong with you? What the hell are you doing?! "
At that moment, Baiyi's condition was not quite right. He was struggling to fend off the Northerner's powerful attacks, and he seemed to be distracted. He was at a complete disadvantage, and this was a very dangerous situation. The Warrior Walker's voice, which was usually calm and collected, was tinged with anxiety. This was probably the first time she had spoken in such an anxious tone.
The enemy did not intend to give Baiyi a chance to catch his breath. The assassin remained invisible as he hurled flying daggers at Baiyi. Every single one of them was aimed at the weakest joints of Baiyi's armor. Although Sorcerer Teddy was not very proficient in offensive spells, he was still able to cast a variety of restraining spells that could interfere with his spellcasting range. The archer tossed aside his broken longbow and used his combat chi to form a green bow and arrow. Then, he used his combat chi to form more arrows, one after another, to seal off Baiyi's escape routes.
Even the Lich had taken advantage of the time difference to complete the summoning of the undead in time. The silhouettes of the undead could be vaguely seen in the distance of the Gobi Desert. The crisp sounds of bones and armors colliding could be heard from afar. Banshees and phantoms could be vaguely seen in the air.
The situation was extremely unfavorable for Baiyi. In the face of such overwhelming attacks, Baiyi could only dodge and evade in a fluster. He could not even launch a counterattack. Less than two minutes had passed since the second round of attacks began, but his armor was already riddled with scars. It was as if his armor was going to be torn to shreds in the next second.
The only thing that Baiyi could be thankful for was the fact that he had kept his cloak safely, so this precious treasure did not get destroyed in the face of such a dangerous situation.
The Assassin Walker, who was watching the battle from the Void, felt like she was about to come out. She poked the Warrior Walker with her consciousness and begged, "Sister Warrior, he's dying! Don't be mean to him! Just help him!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, the Northerner took advantage of an opening in Baiyi's defense and swung his sword at Baiyi's abdomen. It looked as if the phantom of a ferocious tiger had opened its jaws wide and was about to snap at Baiyi. If the Northerner's attack succeeded, Baiyi's body would be sliced into pieces!
At this critical moment, Lady Assassin Walker's sobbing voice seemed to have awakened Baiyi. Baiyi's movements finally changed. He stomped his feet on the ground, kicking up a cloud of sand and pebbles as he leaped into the air. At the same time, the War God's Sword appeared in his hand. A bright red and blue ring appeared in the air, and the War God's Sword sliced through the tiger's neck.
The indestructible War God's Sword could cut through anything, including combat aura. With a single slash, the link between the combat aura was severed. It was as if a ferocious tiger had its head chopped off. The shadow that was formed by the sword lost its power and dispersed into the surroundings like a cloud of dust.
However, this only delayed the Northern Warrior's attack for a little while. The Northern Warrior did not panic at the sudden counterattack. Instead, he smirked coldly, and the combat chi in his hand continued to surge. Suddenly, the tiger's head regrew, and it pounced at Baiyi, who was still in midair. Baiyi had no leverage in the air, and he was about to be bitten by the tiger's head.
However, just as the Northern Warrior was about to land his attack, Baiyi's figure disappeared into thin air once again! The Northern Warrior, whose attack had missed again, spun around without a second thought and swung his pale-green combat chi saber down at the Northern Warrior. The saber seemed unable to withstand the Northern Warrior's strength, and it exploded, sending a shockwave of heat into the surroundings. The air around the Northern Warrior seemed to have been set ablaze, and Baiyi, who had appeared behind the Northern Warrior and was about to swing his sword at the Northern Warrior, was forced to step back.
By the time Baiyi had retreated and the shockwave had dissipated, the Northern Warrior's pale green combat chi had weakened considerably. It was no longer as turbulent as before, but the gravel and sand beneath his feet had been scorched red by the intense heat of the combat chi sword's explosion. The Northern Warrior looked as if he had been plunged into a scorching inferno. The dust that had been kicked up by Baiyi's leap had been ignited into tiny sparks, which fluttered in the air around the Northern Warrior, adding a sense of realism to the scene.
The Northern Warrior did not rush to attack again. The combat chi system that he cultivated was very different from that of the Southerners. Unlike the Southerners, who desperately accumulated an inexhaustible amount of combat chi, the Northern Warrior continuously compressed and refined his combat chi. This way, the Northern Warrior's combat chi was purer and more controllable, to the point where it could be said that he was at the pinnacle of perfection. When he used the Northern Warrior Walker's special elemental martial arts, the power of his combat chi techniques would be even greater! However, the price he had to pay was the fact that he did not have a lot of combat chi in his body. He needed some time to recover after unleashing such a powerful attack.
The recovery rate of a Holy-level fighter was very fast, so the Northern Warrior's combat chi only lasted for a few seconds before the color of the Northern Warrior's combat chi returned to its original green color. Fortunately, the Northern Warrior still had a few breaths' time before he could attack again, so Baiyi had the time to answer the questions of the Void.
"I was thinking about something, so I used my psychic energy to scan the surroundings," Baiyi explained. "I was thinking about something, so I scanned the surroundings with my psychic energy."
"You're about to be beaten into a pig's head, and you're still in the mood to think about stuff like that?" Lady Assassin Walker retorted.
'Isn't a pig's head a perfect match for a pig's snort?' Baiyi cursed in his heart and continued to explain, "When I was using the Void Energy earlier, a strange intuition suddenly appeared in my heart. It was an inexplicable and indescribable intuition. It was as if something dangerous was spying on me in the dark … So, I temporarily stopped."
He wondered how the hunters would feel if they found out that Baiyi had been thinking about something else while he was fighting them.
"If you're forced to think about something in the middle of a fight, then it must be something important. What do you mean by spying? Is it some kind of spying or recording spell that those guys are using? "The Archmage asked.
In a fight like this, people would usually use all kinds of visual recording spells, which were similar to the cameras on Earth, to record everything that was happening. However, the fluctuations of these spells were usually very obvious, so it was easy for people to spot them. Of course, there was also the possibility of improved versions of these spells that could achieve the same effect as pinhole cameras on Earth.
Baiyi hurriedly said, "No, no, no. It's not that simple. That feeling … it's more like those high and mighty beings up there …"
"Gods?" The Voidwalkers were shocked. This small, ownerless realm was as insignificant as a grain of sand in the world. How could it have attracted the attention of the gods?
"It's just a feeling, that's all. I've thought about it, and I don't think it's that bad. After all, they're still gods. There's no need for them to do something as despicable as spying on us. Baiyi rejected their guesses and continued, "I'll have to think about it a little more. I'm afraid I shouldn't use my Void Energy so carelessly."
Although Baiyi's judgment was based on something as unreliable as intuition, it was still the Fifth Walker's intuition. It was not an illusion like 'I can kill her, or' she likes me '.
