Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Prying Eyes
The light of the Spirit Talisman was extremely fast, like a Spirit Arrow, striking the Spirit Shield with lightning speed.
In an instant, thirty-two spirit points of Lingyun Peak began to oscillate, and the spirit point near the Blood Robe Cultivator directly collapsed.
Evidently, the array-breaking method of the Array-Breaking Talisman relied on shattering the connections between the Array Foundations.
This scene also caused the faces of the Ye Family members to change.
Relying on the array, they had confidence to resist a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but if the array was broken, the gap would be tremendous.
Ye Haiyun even took out his Storage Bag and retrieved a banner.
Almost at the instant the Array Spiritual Shield broke, two Blood Robe individuals revealed their figures and charged towards the inner part of Lingyun Peak.
Their expressions were cold and their gazes fierce.
Each wielded a Magical Artifact, the slightly chubbier cultivator wielded a Blood Saber, while the slightly thinner cultivator took out a Blood Hook.
Both of them chopped towards another Array Foundation!
For this kind of Mountain Protection Array, there were generally spare Array Foundations. As the Array Disc operated, the spare foundations could instantly replace and restore the array.
But if more foundations were destroyed, even an Array Master couldn’t compensate for the array in the first instance.
Indeed, with the sound of clanging, blood light spread as two more Array Foundations shattered.
Even when Ye Haiyun took out new Array Foundations and placed them in the previous shattered points, they still couldn’t form a Spirit Shield to protect the array.
"Mad Corpse Fiends, how dare you!" Ye Haiyun roared angrily. With the array broken, the Celestial Spirit Blade couldn’t be used, so he resorted to his Magical Artifact, unleashing two Crimson Fire Swords.
However, the slightly fat Blood Robe Cultivator displayed a sneer on his face, and took out a Black Token from his hand.
This Black Token flew out and transformed into a coffin, releasing black light that actually bound the two Crimson Fire Swords, even attempting to forcibly draw them into the coffin.
The speed of this was extremely fast, and the two Flying Swords ultimately couldn’t escape the black light.
The slightly thinner cultivator next to him then rushed forward, his figure ghost-like and terrifyingly quick.
The Mad Corpse Fiends were known for their cooperative attack strategies.
The Celestial Fiend controlled the array from outside with ghostly means.
The Earth Fiend was a Body Cultivator who excelled at close combat, moving with ghostly speed.
The slender Blood Robe Cultivator left a long shadow at the original spot, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Ye Haiyun.
He licked his lips bloodthirstily, as if he had already touched upon Ye Haiyun’s demise.
A sharp glint of frost appeared in his hand, a claw about a foot in length, reaching for Ye Haiyun’s heart.
And at the next moment, a roar was heard, and a Tier Two Spotted Cloud Tiger flew out from the side.
The Spotted Cloud Tiger’s wings were extremely wide and thick as if clouds hanging from the sky, moving even faster, forcing the thinner Blood Robe Cultivator to spring away instantly.
Matched against a Qi Cultivation Cultivator, he was unwilling to trade injuries.
He turned his claw to strike at the Spotted Cloud Tiger, the clanging sound was piercingly sharp.
It sparked a circle of golden fire.
However, before he could recover, another Wind Banner appeared in the sky.
With cyan spiritual light, two cyclones spun up, and within these cyclones was filled with flying blades that would reduce any who got caught in them to shreds.
Meanwhile, Ye Haiyun seemed to be lifted by something, instantly retreating dozens of yards.
"The Ye Family indeed has hidden powers!" This time, it was the slightly fatter cultivator who spoke, as he directed the coffin that he had cast, covering Ye Jingyu who had just attacked.
At its appearance, it transformed into a ray of black light enveloping the Hurricane Banner, attempting to swallow it inside.
Without the banner, the Earth Fiend’s actions were unrestricted, and with his Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation, few could withstand his close-quarter combat.
Not even the Spotted Cloud Tiger.
Yet at this moment, a blast of fire surged, boom!
Two huge Fireballs were hurled at the fat cultivator.
Following Ye Jingyu’s attack, Ye Jingcheng also revealed his cultivation, immediately releasing the Two-tailed Red Flame Fox.
With the array broken, there was no need for concealment.
The fierce flame was like two small suns smashing towards the fat cultivator.
The fat cultivator was horrified, hastily turning the coffin’s direction to absorb the two massive Fireballs.
As the Fireballs were absorbed, the coffin turned scarlet red, clearly indicating its absorption capacity had a limit, even causing slight bulging of the coffin.
With the coffin absorbing, the fat cultivator again flipped his hand and brandished the blood-red Flying Saber.
The speed of this saber was extremely fast, evidently aiming to slaughter the Red Flame Fox with one strike.
In his eyes, the Red Flame Fox was even more threatening than a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Boom!
As the Blood Saber was unleashed, Ye Jingcheng also released the Zhenyuan Cauldron, the spirit shadow on it transforming into a massive suppression character.
Heading straight towards the Blood Saber spiritual artifact.
But to Ye Jingcheng’s astonishment, his spiritual power was considerably weaker than the fat cultivator’s.
Just as it covered, the fat cultivator coldly snorted, blood light bloomed, and the crimson Blood Sword severed through the cauldron’s gleaming light, heading directly for the Red Flame Fox.
Fortunately, the Red Flame Fox and the Golden Scaled Beast were well-trained daily, agile in movement, making a quick left leap to dodge.
The Blood Sword sliced through nothingness, cutting away much of the wasteland.
Forcing Ye Jingcheng to also take a step back.
While the two battled, Ye Haiyun took out three more Array Foundations, positioning them differently, clearly reconfiguring the Mountain Protection Array.
This surprised the Mad Corpse Fiends.
Aside from the battle within the array.
Outside, with the death of the Tier One Corpse Refinement.
The three Tier Two Corpse Refineries, under the combined assault of the Five Poison Lizard and the Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger, plus a large number of Ye Family Cultivators, and a large number of Tier One Late Stage Demon Beasts.
The three corpses clearly couldn’t hold on.
Compared to Spirit Beasts, the spiritual wisdom of Corpse Refineries was even lower.
Absent the control of the two cultivators, these three Corpse Refineries appeared rather dumb.
Being led around by the Five Poison Lizard and Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger.
Meanwhile, numerous demons emerged, annoying the Corpse Refinements.
Like Ye Jingyong’s Golden Feathered Eagle, Ye Xingqun’s Black Wood Ant and Five Poison Bee.
Even Ye Jingli’s Cyan-Scaled Python, after being upgraded with Thorn Armor and Tail Hammer, was quite ferocious, attacking boldly.
Against Tier Two Corpse Refineries, they were remarkably effective.
...
"No wonder that at the Foundation Establishment Auction, Ye Xingliu was so in agreement with Market Master Jiang, probably because those two Foundation Establishment Pills had already been secretly bought by Ye Xingliu!"
"The story about the quantity reducing due to some incident was pure nonsense!"
"It’s infuriating that he then pretended to bid!" In the distance from Lingyun Peak, in a shadowy place, two black-robed individuals coldly snorted.
"The Chu Family’s Jade Valley was probably also breached by the Ye Family!"
"With so many Spirit Beasts, it’s indeed plausible, that old man Ye is deeply hidden indeed!!"
"Ye Xingliu, that junior, is too cunning and resourceful, he mustn’t be left alive!" The two conversed secretly, filled with hatred.
"However, I am curious about what treasures the Ye Family possess to support so many Tier Two Demon Beasts..."
