Chapter 731: Chapter 337: The Eerie Formation Against Pseudo Arts (Part 3)
Profound Immortals have fallen!
In addition, several geniuses have met their end at the same time!
Within a range of thousands of miles, it was as if all living things had vanished; the vitality of the grass and trees had been drained away to ash, even the Great Dao’s rosy glow had disappeared, leaving a truly barren land, destroying everything.
Meanwhile, the cloak’s edge fluttered as the cloaked man sneered, using false techniques to absorb the green energy of these deceased individuals completely.
"I want to see how you can escape!"
He glanced toward the direction where the others fled, his eyes colder than ice.
...
"Is that all that’s left?"
Li An looked at the people who had followed him, feeling a chill in his heart.
There were only seven or eight left.
Out of the forty or fifty geniuses who entered this small world from the Fire Phoenix Nest, along with others seeking fortunes, totaling around two hundred, only twenty to thirty might have survived, with most turned to dust.
Tonight, most had been killed by that cloaked man!
This cannot continue; these people must not die.
"Follow me!"
Li An shouted, caring not for anything else, he led Xu Yuan and the others flying toward a valley, with the others following in panic.
Once in the valley, Li An immediately took out an Array Plate ––
This Array Plate was at the Profound Immortal Level, also from Purple Cloud Mountain, something he acquired during his time there as "Chong Guang," taking whatever he wanted, leaving him only the option to use it now when pressed.
He considered this well, having originated from Purple Cloud Mountain, and once being a True Disciple of Leng Rufeng, possessing some treasures was plausible.
"Everyone, this array can only be sustained by mysterious force. I don’t have much Anomaly Crystal on me, quickly contact the Palace Master and esteemed teachers outside to come save us!"
Li An spoke while activating the Array, throwing in several Middle Grade Anomaly Crystals. Fortunately, Xu Yuan had just emerged from Purple Cloud Mountain and still had some crystals.
They had barely settled when the cloak man appeared outside the valley, looking coldly at Li An, saying, "A mere mysterious creature dares to block me, truly overestimating oneself!"
With that, he swung a small green knife, slashing downward ––
Countless blade shadows like heavenly rain fell, and from Li An’s hand, the Profound Immortal Level Array fully activated, with gray power forming a Great Wall obstructing everything, as Immortal Power and mysterious power collided densely.
Boom boom boom!
In the sky, comfortable light clusters exploded, making Li An’s array shudder, but still withstanding the wave of attacks!
"Hold steady!"
"Mysterious brother, hold it together!"
"When we get out, I’ll have my ancestor give you a cleansing!"
Seeing this, others panicked, speaking urgently as they also tried various means to contact the higher-ups outside.
But to their horror, it seemed they had been completely cut off from the outside, with all methods proving futile!
"What’s going on?"
"Who’s tampered with things?"
Everyone was panicking.
Li An frowned, the current situation was a bit beyond his expectations.
First, he thought the hidden Hunter could only take them one by one, but unexpectedly, the opponent had the strength to crush everyone, the power of that green knife was seriously overwhelming.
Second, he didn’t expect the higher-ups of the Fire Phoenix Nest to act so ruthlessly, directly trapping everyone here.
Now, to survive... they must hold on.
Hold on until the outside world opens up this small world.
"The orchestrators, likely only very few high-ups, such as... Immortal Refiner Flame!"
Li An quickly analyzed, knowing the small world was driven entirely by Immortal Refiner Flame, its manifestation of heavenly power originating from him alone, no one else had such strength and opportunity.
But what about the esteemed teachers? Li An believed they likely hadn’t participated.
After all, from the current perspective, the geniuses from the Xu family, the Chen family, and the Mu family were considered "prey," and although Fire Phoenix Nest was an organization, it had varying interests internally. Would the three families willingly offer their geniuses? Such noble spirit was unlikely.
Hence, the greatest likelihood was that the three esteem teachers... were all fooled by Immortal Refiner Flame.
Knowing the truth and orchestrating from the shadows, it was likely only Immortal Refiner Flame and Li Nianxue.
Likewise, the cloaked man must have been chosen by Immortal Refiner Flame and Li Nianxue.
Thus, while Immortal Refiner Flame could control the closing of this small world, there was a time constraint, and given time, the esteemed teachers would react, and Immortal Refiner Flame couldn’t suppress it.
That’s when they had a chance to get out.
Hold on!
Thinking of this, Li An directly threw out two more Profound Immortal Level Array Plates!
Go all out!
"Brother Gu, my dear brother!"
"Who would’ve thought we’d depend on mysterious objects to survive one day!"
"The cloaked man outside is no less frightening than the mysterious!"
Seeing this, everyone was extremely excited, eager to help Li An manipulate the Array, but unfortunately, their Immortal Power was ineffective, leaving them helpless spectators.
"What?"
Outside the valley, seeing Li An produce two more Profound Immortal Level arrays, the cloaked man frowned.
One array he could break quickly, though with some effort, and with three, even with his resources, it would take much more time...
Time was the one thing he couldn’t afford!
He hadn’t expected this plan to encounter anomalies, first with Chen Hui somehow discovering him, and now, just as everyone was cornered, a mysterious creature stood in his way?
So many vexing issues.
"I hope the Palace Master buys us more time!"
He gritted his teeth, furiously assaulting the Array!
...
At this moment.
In the outside world.
"It’s been a month, it should be open by now."
"Yes, I wonder if any geniuses from my clan have succeeded?"
"Where’s the Palace Master? Why hasn’t it opened?"
Everyone was expectant, the three esteemed teachers also inquiring.
"To report, it might be due to the power of the Celestial Tribulation being too strong, causing the small world to temporarily slip out of control, the Palace Master is making every effort to restore it, but more time may be needed."
One of Immortal Refiner Flame’s True Disciples appeared, speaking hastily.
"How could that be?"
"Never mind, has the Palace Master said how long it will take?"
The esteemed teachers felt no sense of oddity.
"Three days!"
This disciple replied.
...
"According to the plan, it should be almost time, give him another three days to nurture the Life Seed, to leave safely."
Immortal Refiner Flame spoke.
Beside him, Li Nianxue nodded.
...
Good night.
