"A mere formation!"
Burs ignored it, still wanting to kill Luo Xiaowei.
However, at this moment, a scarlet sea of blood appeared at his feet.
Boundless malevolent energy condensed in He Guangxin's hand, the [Blood Fiend Demon Sword]. His hair turned the color of scarlet blood, and he now resembled a blood-colored demon.
This was a more proper sword cultivator, possessing terrifying destructive power.
"Rakshasa!"
He Guangxin roared, and a colossal Rakshasa phantom appeared behind him, radiating an aura of extreme malevolence.
The Rakshasa phantom mimicked He Guangxin's movements, thrusting its sword towards Burs's back.
"Boom!"
His back took a solid hit. He wasn't seriously injured, but it infuriated him.
Meanwhile, Luo Xiaowei's sword domain could no longer hold and shattered.
Burs's face contorted with ferocity. "Did you think I would be distracted by others? I will kill you all, one by one!"
But facing the terrifying black flames, Luo Xiaowei revealed a mocking smile. "Do you know how many team battles we've coordinated?"
"I don't care how many you've coordinated!"
The scythe swept down, but Luo Xiaowei himself vanished.
Bai Nianchen, on the other side, flicked his horsetail whisk. "Yin Yang Reversal!"
At some point, the formation beneath his feet had transformed into a Tai Chi diagram.
Burs gasped. His perception of time momentarily spun out of control. Although he quickly forced himself out of this discomfort, his position and Luo Xiaowei's had been swapped.
They were now back-to-back.
Burs gritted his teeth, feeling the humiliation of being toyed with. The scythe he had swung now swept backward instinctively!
"Did you think you wouldn't die like this?"
The result was that he had once again missed, striking not Luo Xiaowei's body, but an illusory world.
The zither music continued. He looked to his right, and Shen Yingxue was still focused on playing the strings.
Tricked again!
During that fleeting moment of mental confusion, Shen Yingxue had layered another illusion, which Burs had completely failed to detect.
He shook his body and then roared forward.
A stream of black breath spewed from his mouth, turning everything in sight into a single expanse.
But soon, an ancient, rustic bell descended before the breath.
"Clang!!"
The [Chaos Bell] erupted with intense light!
Xiao Long stood behind the [Chaos Bell], manipulating the Great Dao with his hands, channeling chaotic energy around him.
He controlled the chaotic energy, his hands in a lifting posture. The golden light of the [Chaos Bell] grew even more dazzling, then ascended, becoming larger and larger.
Burs's face contorted with rage as he looked up at the [Chaos Bell] enveloping him.
"Get out of my way!"
He punched upwards at the bell.
Xiao Long's hands trembled violently, and his face turned pale.
But he still gritted his teeth and pressed down with all his might.
"Suppression of Heaven and Earth!"
In an instant, within the area covered by the [Chaos Bell], space seemed to be forcibly frozen. Immense chaotic power poured down.
Burs's body quivered, his mind becoming somewhat disoriented.
However, he was powerful enough to quickly regain his senses. It was just that after this suppression, his soul seemed to have been branded with something.
"Get away!"
His body suddenly convulsed, and the terrifying force caused the surroundings to explode, sending the [Chaos Bell] flying.
Xiao Long spat out a mouthful of blood, becoming considerably weaker.
Burs began to panic. He was acutely aware that his current strength was formidable, having completely surpassed the limits achievable by humans. Logically, these individuals should not be able to defeat him.
But just now, he felt he had definitely been injured.
He had been wounded by the [Chaos Bell], and it was his soul that had been harmed.
This instilled a strong sense of crisis in him, and images flashed in his mind of the Heaven-Slaying Clan kings being ambushed and slaughtered like dogs by the newly ascended Ice Sword Mercenary Group.
"No, no, no! I am strong, I cannot possibly lose to them!"
Burs quickly cast aside his unsettling thoughts and forcefully tore through the formation beneath his feet.
Bai Nianchen suffered a backlash, his face paling as he coughed up blood.
But during the brief period Burs was trapped, the others had not been idle.
Luo Xiaowei reformed his sword intent and unleashed a strike at Qin Xiaoxiao!
"Xiaoxiao!"
A heavy sword intent enveloped Qin Xiaoxiao, like a layer of armor.
Wielding an axe in one hand and a large hammer in the other, she charged towards Burs, who had just broken free from the formation.
"Dong!!"
Burs clashed with Qin Xiaoxiao, naturally gaining the upper hand.
However, her attacks were incredibly peculiar. They seemed to lack any special effects, but after the collision, it became clear that this was far from the truth.
Each strike was delivered casually yet directly targeted a weakness.
Bai Nianchen took a deep breath and began drawing another formation.
"Miss Qin! This humble Taoist shall empower you!"
In an instant, the [Four Symbols Annihilation Array] was released. The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird – the Four Symbols True Spirits – were summoned, appearing as true divine beasts and all entering Qin Xiaoxiao's body.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoxiao felt her entire being filled with power.
She gritted her teeth, struggling to contend with Burs. Even with the enhancement, she was still far outmatched, being pushed back repeatedly.
Meng Zibin took a deep breath and said to Shen Yingxue, "I'm going in!"
Shen Yingxue immediately understood his intent and nodded. "Go ahead!"
At this moment, the melody she played instantly changed, transforming into a battle march!
The sonorous zither music accompanied Meng Zibin's charge.
He felt invincible fighting spirit surging through him. Wielding the pure white [Primordial Spear], he transformed into a streak of black light, piercing towards Burs.
Influenced by Shen Yingxue's music, numerous divine beast phantoms appeared around Meng Zibin, charging alongside him.
At this moment, Wang Teng, who had been healing, donned his blood-red armor once more.
"Roar!"
He roared, and Meng Zibin and Qin Xiaoxiao's bodies jolted. Their fighting spirit surged like a rainbow, manifesting as tangible power that converged onto their weapons.
"Brother Qingyun! I'm going in!"
Wang Teng popped a [True Dragon Bursting Heaven Pill] into his mouth. His muscles bulged, and his strength increased by another notch!
"You scoundrel! You seemed to be enjoying yourself beating me up earlier!"
As for Li Qingyun, he opened his hands, gathering the life force of the myriad stars.
Then, he brought his palms together, and the life force instantly reversed, transforming into gray death energy.
"Great Desolation Curse!"
