Chapter 155: Breaking The Formation

Chapter 155: Breaking The Formation

Kill! Qi Bei roared, and the heavy sword in his hand flashed with a dazzling golden light, directly cleaving one of the frontmost netherworld beasts into two.

Netherworld beasts were a general term for the creatures of the Netherworld. They varied in levels and appearances, but they all exuded a strong aura of darkness.

The netherworld beasts summoned within this giant summoning array were mostly equivalent to the strength of fourth and fifth-level magic beasts, with a few having the strength of sixth-level magic beasts. As for those with the strength of seventh-level, they had not appeared among the horde of netherworld beasts.

In other words, the highest strength among these netherworld beasts currently equaled that of a King-grade expert.

However, there were thousands upon thousands of these netherworld beasts, enough to overwhelm several Earth-grade experts, not to mention the fact that their dark aura had extremely negative effects.

For Qi Bei and Yan Shengyi, both equivalent to Earth-grade experts, their fate was almost predetermined.

Qi Bei had turned into a madman. Every time he attacked, his battle qi-infused strikes could shatter multiple netherworld beasts. In his mind, there was only killing.

On the other hand, Yan Shengyi appeared much calmer. Her Judgment Sword emitted a dazzling holy light, cutting down seemingly endless netherworld beasts. She stayed close behind Qi Bei, never letting him out of her sight.

The combined attacks of the two inflicted much greater damage.

For example, while Qi Beis attacks could only lightly injure some of the netherworld beasts at the outer range, Yan Shengyi followed up with her attacks, turning the area where these lightly injured underworld beasts were into the center of her own attacks. This increased efficiency compared to venturing into the horde of netherworld beasts alone.

Qi Beis madness and ferocity, Yan Shengyis calmness and devotionthese two opposite forms of slaughter blended into a strange sensation. If one observed the battle from outside the battlefield, it would feel like an exquisite harmony, as if subtly conforming to some law of nature.

Qi Bei was engulfed in boundless killing intent, guarding only his original intention, allowing the killing intent to permeate his entire being.

Meanwhile, Yan Shengyi entered a state of devout tranquility. It was as if she was possessed by the spirit of light, using the heart of light to dispel the boundless darkness.

However, even a machine cannot operate indefinitely, let alone a person.

Facing the seemingly endless netherworld beasts, the energy of Qi Bei and Yan Shengyi began to deplete rapidly. Before long, when they were exhausted, it would be the moment of their death.

Just then, Qi Beis heavy sword struck the head of a netherworld beast with the strength of a sixth-level magic beast. But almost at the same time, a piercing roar resounded, and a dark sphere of light hit Qi Beis chest.

Qi Bei felt a sharp pain in his chest as he was sent flying backward.

Hu Zi! Yan Shengyi shouted, and with a step on the ground, she soared into the air and caught Qi Bei.

With just this delay, the attack range of Yan Shengyis circle was significantly reduced by the pressure from the netherworld beasts.

Yan Shengyi let out a shout, and a dazzling white light appeared at the tip of her Judgment Sword. In an instant, the white light began to expand.

Boom! Like a miniature nuclear explosion, a radiant light curtain spread out in all directions from the center of the white light. Wherever it passed, the netherworld beasts turned into white smoke and dissipated.

Yan Shengyi held Qi Bei and landed on the ground, stumbling a bit, her pretty face turning pale.

The reason she didnt use a large-scale attack earlier was that it consumed too much energy. And in this moment of crisis, using this move, the Divine Light Curtain, when her energy was already nearly depleted, was her last resort.

At this moment, ten enormous netherworld beasts appeared, all of them possessing the strength of seventh-level magic beasts. In the distance, there were still countless netherworld beasts of slightly lower levels, but they all remained motionless. Clearly, there were significant class differences among the netherworld beasts as well.

The current situation was as if ten Earth-grade experts had surrounded them.

For Qi Bei and Yan Shengyi, this was a certain death situation!

Suddenly, Yan Shengyi realized something and forcefully pushed away the intoxicated Qi Bei.

Huh? Why didnt we die? Qi Bei pretended to be shocked, his face full of surprise.

Yan Shengyi looked around, and it was indeed Soul Severing Mountain. They had actually escaped from the netherworld summoning formation. When she realized this, she couldnt help but cover her mouth. She had actually been entangled passionately with this man just now.

At that time, she thought

No, she didnt agree to let him kiss her. He took advantage of her weakness and forcibly kissed her. She didnt even have much awareness at that time.

Yan Shengyi quickly found an excuse, although her heart was not calm.

But what was going on? In the face of certain death, they unexpectedly escaped from the netherworld summoning formation. Could it be that the God of Light sensed her devotion and bestowed a miracle upon them?

Yan Shengyi looked towards Qi Bei and, seeing his flawless expression, dispelled a trace of doubt in her heart. This bearded man definitely didnt have the ability to break the netherworld summoning formation.

However, she didnt know that Qi Bei couldnt, but the mysterious black longsword on his body could.

At this moment, Yan Shengyi saw Qi Bei stealing glances at her lips, and a complex emotion flashed through her heart, but she quickly expelled it.

The time they spent together was a series of accidental coincidences.

As the Judge of the Light Temple, representing the God of Light, she had devoted her body, mind, and soul to the God of Light. Romantic love in the mortal world had nothing to do with her.

Lets go quickly, that old man can still track us, Yan Shengyi said.

Alright, Qi Bei looked at Yan Shengyis calm and composed gaze once again, feeling somewhat nostalgic for her exquisite smile when she thought they were going to die.

..

Yao Rao stood in front of the Wuxin Path of the Heavenly Tower, watching Ming Yue emerge from it, drenched in sweat.

Ming Yue looked tired, but there was a shimmering brilliance in her eyes. Her spiritual power had greatly increased. She had just recently broken through to the realm of a King-grade mage, but after walking through the Wuxin Path, not only did she consolidate her realm completely, but she also made further progress.

Stepping out of the Wuxin Path, Ming Yue looked at the enchanting Yao Rao, and asked softly, Why?

The question seemed random, but Yao Rao understood. She smiled and said, Theres no reason, I just wanted to help you.

The Wuxin Path of the Heavenly Tower was not accessible to every disciple of the Heavenly Mountain Peak. Only with the order of an elder could one enter. Clearly, it was Yao Rao who brought Ming Yue to this path for spiritual cultivation. The heart represents the soul, and the soul represents the spirit. By walking through it, as long as ones aptitude is good, their spiritual power will definitely increase significantly.

Is it for Qi Bei? Ming Yue fell silent for a moment and then spoke.

Yao Rao looked at Ming Yue in surprise. She didnt expect her to be quite astute. With an elegant and candid demeanor, she said, There is a certain connection, but its not entirely because of him.

Whats so good about him? Ming Yue asked, even though she knew that asking such a question was disrespectful. However, she still wanted to know, and as for why she wanted to know, she wasnt quite clear in her own heart.

No matter how intelligent a woman is, when it comes to matters of the heart, she will always become somewhat confused.

Yao Rao giggled charmingly, her allure overflowing. Instead of answering Ming Yues question, she smiled and said, Think about why youre asking that in the first place.

Ming Yue was momentarily stunned and couldnt come up with an answer.
