Chapter 471 Deathtrap
Those dozens of golden sword radiance reached at an instant. They were people sent by Immortals’ League. There were 30 to 40 Nascent Soul cultivators, 7 or 8 Nirvana Realm envoys, and 2 Grand Completion Realm’s Stewards.
The faces of the 2 Stewards changed when they saw what was in front of them. But soon, they calmed down. One said decisively, “Don’t let go of any, even if they may be innocent! Create the Inescapable Net Formation, and today catch these people in one fell swoop!” At the end of the speech, many people surrounded the group quickly.
At this moment, Yi Tong and None-flower Dust were both injured, Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon was also injured to varying degrees. Gui Xian and Ziyun’er had to take care of Qingluan, and Huangfu Xin’er was also hit by a few Sword Qis. Guifeng’s Soul power had been greatly damaged and had become translucent, and the Wooden Spirit Puppet had also been seriously damaged. At this moment, everyone was at the end of the road…
Xiao Chen was still fighting hard with his blade, but the counterattack of the Immolation Spell of the Three Elements had arrived slowly. He was also suffering from several swords’ cuts behind his back and was bleeding profusely. He was drenched in blood. His hair, his clothes, and his face were all stained with blood, from both enemies and his own.
“Lord!” A woman covered in blood stumbled to his side, said anxiously, “Lord! We are surrounded! Our sisters can’t hold any longer, but we’ll escort you through the breakout!”
“Breakout…” Xiao Chen’s face was covered with blood, and he looked around. There were people in all directions and there was no way out.
Suddenly, more than a dozen flying swords with gold rays struck. “Go away!” Xiao Chen pushed the woman away and swang his blade. “Dang Dang Dang!” A few flying swords were cut into half. However, there were a few more flying towards Huangfu Xin’er.
“Xin’er!” Xiao Chen’s Immortal-override Steps were cast to its limit in an instant. “Dang!” He broke a few of the flying swords into half, but there were still three on his back, and there was a sudden surge of blood in his mouth.
“Xiao Chen!” Huangfu Xin’er supported him, but she was also seriously injured and was bleeding profusely from her mouth. Xiao Chen grabbed her arm and looked at the blood on her face. His heart felt as though being cut with a blade, and he said, “Xin’er… I… I’m sorry…”
At this moment, tears finally gathered in his eyes, and he looked around and yelled, “Break out!” He held Huangfu Xin’er with one hand and took the Blood Lotus Demon Blade with the other and rushed to the east.
A dozen people in the back immediately followed after and rushed to the east. Three Grand Completion Realm Stewards in the air combined forces with a dozen Nirvana Realm envoys in casting a Formation. A Steward yelled, “Stop them!”
Suddenly, a hundred or two hundred people rushed up from the mountain foot, and dozens of flying swords in golden rays swooshed and flew over. Xiao Chen rushed to the front, yelled, and cut off several incoming flying swords. However, he had to protect Huangfu Xin’er as well and could not help but be with hit seven or eight swords.
“Xiao Chen!” Huangfu Xin’er burst out in tears and her heart was like being struck with a million needles as she saw blood flowing from his mouth like a spring, and his body full of flying swords, and yet, he was still protecting her.
“Continue to break out!” When Xiao Chen shouted, his blood also spurted out. He lifted the blade, slashed at the several Nascent Soul cultivators in front of him into blood mist, and continued to rush forward.
At this moment, he did not know if he could break out, but only knew that he had to at least send Huangfu Xin’er out. In a blink of an eye, dozens of flying swords struck again. The dozen people did their best to defend. All of the Levitating Dark Fragrance were seriously injured and Yi Tong and None-flower Dust were no exception.
The cultivators in the distance saw that this group of people was already doing the final battle of the trapped beasts, and they felt more or less sad for them.
“General!” At this moment Xiao Chen had no less than ten flying swords inserted in him, some on his legs, some on his back, and some passed through his chest.
“Here! What does the Lord need!” Guifeng rushed over.
Xiao Chen swallowed a mouthful of blood and bellowed, “Protect her; send her away!”
“Yes, Lord! Mistress, get up!” Guifeng yelled and grabbed Huangfu Xin’er. He swang his blade and chopped off the few Nascent Soul cultivators in front of him.
“Stop him!” A Steward in the air yelled. The Inescapable Net Formation was about to be formed. “As long as the formation is completed, this group of people can’t get away even if they had wings!”
“Still not surrendering?” A dozen Nascent Soul envoys immediately attacked Xiao Chen with their swords. ‘Swoosh’, a dozen swords penetrated Xiao Chen’s body.
“Xiao Chen!” Huangfu Xin’er screamed, and a mouthful of blood came out of her mouth.
Xiao Chen finally felt a little dizzy at the moment. He howled into the sky and swang his blade in a full circle on the spot. The heads of the dozen Nascent Soul cultivators were chopped off instantly. However, he also spewed out a mouthful of blood. He half-knelt on the ground, only to be supported by the blade so that he would not fall.
“You guys… go…” He was already even struggling to talk now.
The dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators left nearby were frightened, for they had never seen such a tenacious person, and for a while, no one dared to step forward.
The envoys of the two Nirvana Realm saw that Xiao Chen was near the end of his strength, then they leaped and rushed up. Yi Tong turned around and punched while exerting his strength, which knocked the two back and then shouted, “Brother Xiao! Go!”
Xiao Chen spewed out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, he was even running out of the strength to stand up. Gui Xian gritted his teeth and handed Qingluan over to Ziyun’er and quickly rushed over to get him up. One of the Steward in midair concentrated Qi on his finger and swept it at them. A Sword Qi immediately slashed at them, and like breaking through the sky, it reached them in an instant.
“Senior, beware!”
Xiao Chen used the last of his strength and pushed Gui Xian away. “CLANG!” He blocked the Sword Qi with the Blood Lotus Demon Blade but he was shocked by the impact and flew off to more than 100 feet away.
In the distance, Su Yue gritted her teeth, moved and rushed towards him. Xiao Chen returned to his consciousness in mid-air and pushed her back with one palm, “Take care of my mother, and tell her that I live well in the Human World…” At the end of his words, he fell heavily to the ground.
Several Nascent Soul envoys nearby saw this, and immediately slashed at him with their swords. Huangfu Xin’er and others in the distance were astounded. At this moment, Xiao Chen closed his eyes, and as the several Nascent Soul cultivators were about to reach him, he roared, “First Diabolic Shift!”
Suddenly, the sky changed, devil howling came, and seven to eight Nascent Soul envoys were directly shaken by a Devil Qi that burst out of Xiao Chen’s body and became a blood mist.
The crowd in the distance was horrified. At this moment, Xiao Chen was like a completely different person. His eyes were purple, and he was surrounded by dark Qi like a Great Devil awakened from ancient times. At this moment, everyone finally knew why Immortals’ League was so determined in capturing him.
In the distance, Su Ying’s face also changed, and so were Mo Tiannan’s and others. Gui Xian’s expression changed greatly, and he screamed, “Boy! Stop it immediately!”
But Xiao Chen did not listen, and he slashed at the dozen Nascent Soul envoys blocking his way and yelled, “Go!”
At this moment, a gap was finally opened in the east direction, and more than a dozen people rushed over immediately. Then, the whole heaven and earth seemed to shake. A Steward in the air shouted, “You can’t go anywhere! ” The sky suddenly became golden and dazzling, and the intense light almost outshone the sun in the sky, making it impossible to open their eyes.
A huge golden formation with a thousand square feet radius appeared suddenly and quickly shrouded over in the direction of Xiao Chen and others. Xiao Chen yelled, kicked with both feet, and rushed towards the golden formation with his blade.
“Boom!”
The powerful impact caused the whole Wuyue Peak to be shaken violently. But even with Xiao Chen running the Mystic Diabolic Enchantment at this moment, he was unable to defend the Inescapable Net Formation that cast by the combined force of a dozen Nirvana Realm cultivators and three Grand Completion Realm cultivators.
The formation fluctuations were getting stronger and stronger, and the cultivators in the distance held their breaths. At this moment, everyone was trembling. Even someone as strong as Xiao Chen was unable to escape from the sanctions of the Immortals’ League, and this was just a small part of the Immortals’ League’s power.
Strong winds continued to blow, the gravels on the ground flew everywhere and Xiao Chen was in midair. His hair danced along with the wind and his Devil Qi was pushed back layer by layer from the pressure. The Blood Lotus Demon Blade in his hand could not stop trembling, as though it was about to break apart. However, the formation was still pressing down, it was already undefendable.
“Why are you still not leaving!” Xiao Chen yelled and hit a palm strength at the formation but he still failed to resist the downward pressure. The 10 people of Levitating Dark Fragrance fired up their True Energy and rushed forward as well.
Yi Tong said hurriedly, “Non-flower! Take Senior Gui Xian away!” At the end, he rushed up like a blast of lightning. None-flower Dust gritted his teeth and said, “Where’s your stupid gourd!”
“Gourd… No, the space is too small, and it will hurt you!” Yi Tong looked at the gourd around his waist, finally clenching his teeth, and then chanted a spell. He exhibited the Demon realm and instantly switched positions with Xiao Chen.
“Take him away!” Yi Tong flicked his sleeves and sent Xiao Chen down. A Steward of the Immortals’ League in the air shouted coldly, “No one can get away!”
“Boom!” With a loud bang, the golden formation finally covered everyone under its hood. It shrank and shrank, trapping the dozen people in the formation.
Seeing this, the remaining Immortals’ League envoys and Order of the Divine Fire disciples were relieved, and the cultivators in the distance were silent. At this moment, watching Xiao Chen and others being shrouded into the Inescapable Net Formation was like watching the end of everything.
The wind finally stopped, and the dozen people were shrouded in this formation. They could not get out anymore. The outside was already full of people and they could not escape no matter what. The Devil Qi faded away from Xiao Chen. Gui Xian immediately hurried over and pressed on several major acupuncture points of his body.
“Can you escape again this time?” Qi Heng, who had been hiding in the dark, finally appeared again at this time. He sneered at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen grinned bitterly. In this final moment, why waste a time talking to such people. Instead of paying attention to Qi Heng, he stumbled to Huangfu Xin’er. Huangfu Xin’er was injured rather heavily, the corners of her mouth were covered with blood and her eyes were full of tears.
“Xin’er…”
Xiao Chen slowly stretched out his blood-stained hand and gently stroked Huangfu Xin’er’s face, and tears quickly gathered in his eyes.
“Brother Xiao Chen…” Huangfu Xin’er sobbed, and leaned lightly on his chest, with tears in her eyes and blood in her mouth the could not stop flowing out.
“Xin’er…” Xiao Chen put her face on his chest and gently stroked her hair and two streams of tears also flowed out of his eyes. He said, “For this year’s Double Ninth Festival, the elder brother said that he would go back to the Xiao family, shall we go back as well? Father said that he hasn’t seen you for a long time…” Towards the end, his voice gradually became astringent.
“Yes… yes…” Huangfu Xin’er nodded as she sobbed. Her tears fell off like a broken pearl necklace as she clutched onto his shoulders tightly.
