228 Turning the Tide

Turn the Tide

In the crumbled palace, most of the warriors from the Yang family had already gone ahead into the meteor formation.

The only ones who still stayed outside were Yang Mu, Yang Ke, Li Fenger, and Shi Yan.

However, there were almost a hundred warriors on Cao Zhilan's and Pan Zhe's side, of which Pan Zhe, Cao Zhilan, Xie Kui, Qu Yanqing, and Gu Linglong were all elite figures on the Combat List. These five people were enough to win against Shi Yan's group.

Cao Zhilan had released wave-like powers besieging Shi Yan when he had been neglectful. Yang Mu also got in the mess by trying to save him. Afterward, Yang Ke and Li Fenger both knew that their chances were slim, but they stopped, turned around, and stood with Yang Mu.

In the field, Shi Yan finally performed the Second Sky of Rampage in such a severe crisis, making the rolling negative energies in his meridians merge with the blood in his body.

At that moment, the power in Shi Yan's body doubled again!

Being at the peak of the Disaster Realm, the power on his body kept increasing. Under the refining of the surging negative powers, they instantly formed into frightening evil impacts and struck away the omnipresent powers that Cao Zhilan had quietly cast everywhere.

Shi Yan started walking step by step towards Cao Zhilan.

The evil powers of Resentment, Fear, Despair, Bloodshed, and Violence gushed out of Shi Yan's body. This flow of the evil powers rushed up into the sky like a whirlwind. As Shi Yan walked, the waves of these evil powers kept forming and transformed into three magnificent mountain-like demonic shadows.

Three demonic shadows were formed with different negative powers. They had Shi Yan's soul imprint on them and carried surging negative emotions.

The demonic phantoms were foggy and floated above Shi Yan's head. Their faces were blurred but gave a terrifying feeling to others.

Shi Yan's eyes were bright red. He coldly glared at Cao Zhilan while murderous thoughts came into his mind. Those three giant demonic phantoms suddenly flew out simultaneously; their big demon claws were like overcast, dark clouds pressing towards Cao Zhilan.

The faces of everyone in the field suddenly changed.

Shi Yan's power instantly soared and formed the three giant demonic phantoms on top of his head. The three demonic phantoms seemed illusory but brought out extremely fierce and frightening energy fluctuations. Anyone could see that once they got hit by a demonic phantom, it wouldn't be weaker than a full-power hit from Shi Yan.

"Little Yan! You are something!" Yang Mu stood on one side laughing out loud. He held a big sword in one hand and swung it at the sky. The giant sword in his hand seemed as light as a feather; it drew a beautiful arc in the sky. A cluster of bright silver light suddenly shot out and forced back the approaching Pan Zhe with one blow.

Qu Yan Qing's eyebrows slammed together. She shouted, instantly disappeared, and then reappeared behind Yang Mu in just a blink. The jade brooch on her head suddenly darted out. When it was still in the air, it separated and formed a triangle shape, blockading all the death corners behind Yang Mu.

At the same time, Pan Zhe and Xie Kui both dashed forward again, one on the left and one on the right, blocking Yang Mu off. Yang Mu now fell into the danger.

Yang Ke, Li Fenger wanted to storm in, but they were being wrapped by Gu Ling Lung's seven Magic Swords. Many of the other warriors also took actions altogether, launching different kinds of chaotic attacks that could dazzle others' eyes toward Yang Ke and Li Fenger.

The three of the Yang people were in a razor-edge.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh."

Suddenly, Yang Xue, Karma, and Jaing Hu Quan appeared from inside the meteor formation. These Yang family warriors who had entered the meteor formation saw that Yang Mu and the others were at such a delay, and they finally realized that Yang Mu had probably encountered danger. They decided to come back and jumped out again.

The help from Yang Xue and the other Yang family warriors temporarily resolved the attacks towards Yang Mu and the two others, unburdening them.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Three giant demonic phantoms, under the murderous thoughts from Shi Yan's mind, crazily pounced towards Cao Zhilan. The three demonic phantoms were formed purely with the negative powers in the meridians. They weren't afraid of physical attacks, and no godly weapon could kill these phantoms.

Under the attacks of these three demonic phantoms, Cao Zhilan's expression also became more somber. While being encircled by the three giant phantoms, Cao Zhilan's delicate hand waved slightly, and different energy fluctuations that were different from Profound Qi flew out of her palm. Those strange power fluctuations rippled like water.

Energy fluctuations formed into a strange barrier that is hard to see by the naked eye. This barrier had extraordinary defense power. Under the bombarding of the three demonic phantoms, that strange barrier kept twisting but never broke.

More traces of sweat appeared on Cao Zhilan's supple cheek. It seemed that although she could defend against the attack of the three demonic shadows with the profoundness of her martial technique, she still had to use up quite a lot of power.

"The Life and Death Seal!" Shi Yan roared.

The patterns from both hands suddenly glowed in the bright light. With seven seals per hand, the seals merged in pairs and suddenly darted towards Cao Zhilan.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

Cao Zhilan had produced seven deep and fierce bursts from the barrier. The extraordinary barrier that was difficult to see by the naked eye turned into firefly-like lights that shattered into the sky and spread everywhere.

Cao Zhilan's pretty face changed slightly; she exclaimed, "Star Shift!"

The lights that spread throughout the skygathered quickly and formed into a smooth flat mirror in front of Cao Zhilan.

At the moment the mirror surface formed, the three giant demonic phantoms just happened to press forward. Their claws fiercely pounced on Cao Zhilan.

Magically, the three giant demonic phantoms suddenly disappeared without a trace when they fell into the mirror surface.

Just right in front of Cao Zhilan, those three demonic phantoms seemed as if they had vanished into thin air without leaving a single trace.

A surprising light flashed across Shi Yan's bright red eyes.

His mind shifted, and with the help of his senses, he realized that those three giant demonic phantoms appeared outside the palace, three li away from here.

Cao Zhilan used a profound martial spirit that managed to transport the demonic phantoms formed by the negative powers and easily resolved his fatal blow.

"You sure have some tricks. Only with the Disaster Realm cultivation, you have already forced me to use such a defensive martial skill. Hmm, you have enough to take pride in." Cao Zhilan gave a light sigh and shook her head. With some sympathy, she said, "I originally wanted to catch you alive, but since you had such an eye-catching performance, it seems that I'll have to kill you first and then slowly try to figure out the secrets on you."

After those words came out, strange lights suddenly glimmered in Cao Zhilan's deep beautiful eyes. Those strange lights circulated in a special pattern in her eyes like the stars up in the sky moving in their mysterious tracks according to the laws of the universe.

At the same time, flows of different types of powers quickly surged in Cao Zhilan's delicate body. Five different lights with the colors of red, yellow, green, blue, and green quietly appeared inside her body. These five different-colored lights became more and more obvious; each holy light seemed to be a power entirely different from the Profound Qi.

"Five-Colored Holy Light!"

Yang Mu's expression was extremely stern; he suddenly roared, "Shi Yan, you can't fight the enemy head-on, retreat immediately!"

Shi Yan's bright red eyes coldly at Cao Zhilan. At this most breathtaking moment, he suddenly closed his eyes!

The faces of Yang Xue, Yang Ke, and Li Fenger suddenly changed. Together they all yelled out, trying to convince Shi Yan to dodge.

The Five-Colored Holy Light was a Sacred Level Martial Spirit from the Cao family. It is said that the cultivation of this technique was extremely difficult. First, warriors had to cultivate five martial spirits that released different powers and then tried to master all of those five martial techniques to own five different types of powers in their body. Only then could they start cultivating the Five-Colored Holy Light.

Because the Five-Colored Holy Light was so hard to cultivate, even in the Cao family, there was rarely anyone who could successfully cultivate it. It was said that the power of the technique was extremely astonishing.

Once Yang Mu and the rest saw the five different-colored lights coming from inside Cao Zhilan's body, they immediately recognized this legendary Martial Technique. They hurriedly tried to advise Shi Yan to dodge.

However, at this crucial moment, Shi Yan close his eyes.

After Yang family warriors like Yang Mu, Yang Xue, Li Fenger shouted in shock; their expressions appeared to be extremely anxious. They wanted to help Shi Yan, but they were stopped by the opponents in front of them and had no time to spare.

"I know those three giant demonic phantoms are quickly flying this way, but I think you won't be able to wait until their help comes." the Five-Colored Holy Light came out, and a flow of extremely dangerous power presence came from her body. That Five-Colored Holy Light suddenly gathered in front of her voluminous breasts.

Five types of holy light quickly formed into one broad beam holy light that was as wide as a sky-reaching pillar. Devastating energy fluctuations came from inside that holy light and suddenly shot out.

It aimed straight at Shi Yan!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The vast Five-Colored Holy Light shot out of thin air. Its speed was faster than the naked eye could catch.

Shi Yan stood firmly in his place.

"Whoosh!"

The Five-Colored God Light shoot through his body. Its force was like a laser beam; it shattered one of the skyscraping pillars behind him and continued to shoot forward, crumbling another palace on its way.

"Little Yan!" Yang Mu screamed, his expression was grievous.

"Hmm?" Bits of mysterious light gleamed in Cao Zhilan's beautiful eyes. Her pretty face was a little surprised. She said faintly, "Another illusion. You've escaped this time, but are you going to have such great luck next time?"

In the stone fragments that scattered all over the sky, another Shi Yan's shadow slowly appeared. Using the Electric Shift and the Phantom Shift, together with the magical mental state of the Second Sky of Rampage, Shi Yan was able to predict the attack speed and the direction of the holy light ahead of time; and he thus could dodge the fatal blow of the Five-Colored Holy Light.

"This time, I won't dodge."

His bright red eyes calmly looked at Cao Zhilan. Shi Yan's tone was flat without a single trace of emotion.

Wisps of scorching flame power quietly seeped out of the Blood Vein Ring. The flame power swept through his meridian; wisps of flames came out of the nostrils and eye corners of Shi Yan. The condition of his body was extremely strange.

At the crucial moment, the Ten Thousand Year Earth Flame had reached out in aid once again, injecting the fire power that can burn all beings into his body!
