Chapter 105: Two Great Element Gathering Realm Experts Attack, Inviting You Into the Urn
In the high sky,
Ye Feng’s eyes slightly narrowed.
The five-colored light blade was an attack method of the Five Elements Continuous Array, unmatched in sharpness. It could cleave through the Element Gathering Realm and the Black Patterned Serpent Demon, being only a demi-transformed demon beast, had no means to withstand it.
“All disciples, return to your positions. From now on, act according to my expressions,” Ye Feng shouted.
Hearing this, Mo Ying and the others, not forgetting to bring the remains of the demonic beasts, all returned to the top of the peak. Seeing the grave expression on Ye Feng’s face, they all guessed that a more terrible battle was to come.
“Hahaha, what a Misty Sect!”
A sinister laugh echoed down from mid-air.
Snap!
Thunder flashed within the dark clouds overhead, illuminating the sky and the earth, and allowing everyone from the Misty Sect to clearly see the two figures floating high above.
One was an old Taoist without eyeballs, exuding an aura at the peak of the first layer of the Element Gathering Realm; he gave off an eerie feeling.
The other was the Tiger General, revealing two tiger claws, his rank reaching the lower grade of the Demon General Level, comparable to the peak of the Element Gathering Realm’s first layer.
Cloaked in a black robe with his face obscured, his two tiger claws resembled terrible middle-grade spiritual artifacts, instilling a sense of terror.
“A human cultivator of the Element Gathering Realm!”
“And a Demon General!”
The disciples were utterly shocked.
Ye Feng told the disciples not to worry and continued to ascend to the same height as the two figures, “Who goes there?” he asked.
“This humble one is the Soul Seizing Sect Leader; you may call me Souhun Zhenren,” the old Taoist said with a smile as he lightly stroked his long beard.
Upon hearing that the newcomer was Souhun Zhenren, Ye Feng’s expression became alarmed, and the faces of the Misty Sect disciples turned pale.
Without introducing himself, the Tiger General said coldly, “For killing two of my top generals under my command, tonight we will flatten Misty Sect!”
Ye Feng, with a stern face, replied, “Just the two of you?”
Souhun Zhenren sneered, “The Misty Sect has a complete Miniature Sect Protection Array, which was beyond my expectations. However, we have already tested it, and it’s nothing special.”
“Enough talk. Break the array, kill them all, and take the Spiritual Vein Core. Only then can I heal my injuries and advance to Middle Rank Demon General,” the Tiger General said, clearly impatient.
Once he promoted to Middle Rank Demon General, he would experience a tremendous leap and directly possess the power of the fourth layer of the Element Gathering Realm.
By then, what would he need any scheming for? He could just burst into Whitefloat City and force the City Lord out of seclusion.
If the City Lord didn’t emerge, with the might of a Middle Rank Demon General, wouldn’t it be a massacre?
Souhun Zhenren glanced at the Tiger General and said, “What’s the rush? This Sect Protection Array is not weak, and with the strength of this old man’s avatar alone, I’m afraid it cannot be broken.”
“You just need to assist,” the Tiger General roared, his body rapidly expanding, bursting out of his black robe and transforming into an eight-zhang-long, four-zhang-tall fierce tiger.
His eyes, flickering with an intimidating glow, opened and closed.
“Sky-splitting Slash!”
The Tiger General descended from the sky, his fearsome claws slicing through the mist directly towards Ye Feng’s head.
Ye Feng, upon hearing that the Tiger General knew about the spiritual vein in Misty Peak, tensed up. He immediately put away the Spirit Origin Clock and the Spirit Sword, controlled the array with the Array Plate, and condensed a semi-transparent shield in front of him.
The sharp tiger claws struck the shield, merely causing it to dent inward before bouncing the Tiger General back into mid-air.
“To think it could even block my Sky-splitting Slash!” The Tiger General’s eyes widened in surprise, revealing a humanized astonishment on his tiger face.
“Indeed, it’s very strong,” even the avatar of Souhun Zhenren showed a grave expression, admitting to himself that he had underestimated the Sect Protection Array of the Misty Sect.
“I refuse to believe I can’t break it!”
Unwilling to give up, the Tiger General opened his mouth and inhaled deeply, drawing in a massive amount of spiritual energy. He expanded further, and his aura surged from the peak of the first layer of the Element Gathering Realm to the second layer.
“Sky-splitting Slash!”
Yet again, the Tiger General’s claws struck the shield, distorting it out of shape, but ultimately, the shield repelled the Tiger General.
Seeing this, Ye Feng chuckled and said, “Looking at your tiger-headed and tiger-brained appearance, all dopey and silly, I suppose you must be the Tiger General. Too bad your strength isn’t enough and neither is your brain. If you can’t break through the shield, why don’t you run home, wash up, and go to sleep?”
Ye Feng had been a little worried before.
But since he saw how formidable the shield was, truly as introduced by the System, as long as the Spiritual Energy was continuous, even those in the fourth or fifth layer of the Element Gathering Realm could be repelled, he instantly felt as steady as an old dog.
“Souhun Zhenren hasn’t entered the range of the Formation yet. I must provoke them further until they all come inside, then crank up the power of the Five Elements Continuous Array to its maximum and eradicate them directly!” Ye Feng planned secretly.
The Five Elements Continuous Array was indeed very powerful.
Even the illusionary Formation of the Misty Area alone could trap experts below the fourth level of Element Gathering. Before, Ye Feng had only used a tenth of its power, and the Black Patterned Snake Demon, Little Wolf General, and a group of Demonic Beasts were trapped.
Turn the power to its maximum, and neither the Tiger General nor Souhun Zhenren’s avatar would be able to withstand it.
Hearing Ye Feng calling himself silly and dopey, the Tiger General’s mouth twitched, and he turned his head to roar at Souhun Zhenren’s avatar, “How much longer are you going to watch?”
“Relax, together we can definitely break through the Formation,” Souhun Zhenren’s avatar said as he formed a spell with both hands, his body visibly shriveling at an eye-able rate, yet a bright and dangerous glow bloomed between his withered fingers.
“It’s dangerous, take cover quickly!” Ye Feng suddenly exclaimed in shock, landing on the ground and releasing several shields around him.
The disciples quickly retreated, and the Whitefloat Five Immortals were shivering with fear.
The Tiger General’s eyes lit up, and he said joyously, “Good, they’re scared. Let’s join forces and tear open the shield!”
Souhun Zhenren’s avatar became even more shriveled, but the bright light of his spellcasting became even more dazzling, emanating an aura so terrifying that even Brother Flathead was unsettled.
“Thunderous Descent!”
Souhun Zhenren’s avatar finally made his move.
A terrifying purple-black lightning bolt pierced through heaven and earth, like a Divine Sword slashing down, instantly penetrating several layers of the shield.
“Sky-splitting Slash!”
Following closely, the Tiger General clawed at the breach in the shield, tearing open a ten-meter-wide gash.
The Tiger General and Souhun Zhenren’s avatar passed through the breach and stood atop Misty Peak. The moment they landed, the surrounding grass instantly turned to ash.
The disciples hid behind Ye Feng, each with a look of horror in their eyes, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
“This Sect Protection Array is indeed strong; it can at least block a regular third layer of the Element Gathering Realm. Even I had to consume all the power of this avatar to break through,” Souhun Zhenren’s avatar said, his voice becoming hoarser, like an old man on his deathbed.
“Next, I can sweep through the Misty Sect. This collaboration has gone rather smoothly,” the Tiger General said with a sinister smile, looking at Ye Feng and the others, faces filled with horror.
“So, you’re only an avatar and not the real person? This is bad. I thought I could reel in a big fish, but it turns out to be a high-grade replica,” Ye Feng’s look of horror instantly turned into disappointment.
The disciples also regained their composure, showing none of the fear from before.
The Tiger General and Souhun Zhenren’s avatar were taken aback.
At this moment, shouldn’t Ye Feng and his group continue to shiver, or kneel and beg for mercy?
Why were they still so composed?
This shouldn’t be happening!
“Die!” Although he couldn’t understand it, the Tiger General still clawed towards Ye Feng, intending to smash the Array Plate in his hand first.
But the next moment, the Tiger General suddenly realized he was bound by a Five-Colored Light Rope that appeared out of nowhere, struggling in vain.
“It’s over, it’s a trap!” The Tiger Demon finally came to his senses.
“Congratulations, you got it right. Here’s your reward: a day trip to the Underworld,” Ye Feng said as he pressed on the Array Plate. The Five-Colored Light Rope swiftly contracted, acting like a sharp blade, and decapitated the Tiger General in one fell swoop.
Bang!
The Tiger General’s head rolled on the ground, producing a dull thud.
A Demon General, after all, was still killed by his own underestimation and arrogance.
Ye Feng put down the Array Plate and looked at Souhun Zhenren’s avatar.
“So your Misty Sect’s Sect Protection Array is a Compound Formation. Even if the true self were to take action personally, it might not escape. Just now, you intentionally weakened the shield to let us enter the heart of the Formation, didn’t you?” Souhun Zhenren’s avatar asked in a deep voice.
As he spoke, the smile completely faded from his face.
