Cutting off all routes to exit then breaking out of the impa.s.se?

How could this be something done easily?

A hint of determination flashed in Feng Lin’s eyes, and he silently clenched the four sphere-shaped objects at his waist.

Even if he wished to fight with his life on the line, his opponent must give him the chance to do so.

The king of the Zheng Clan had its entire body wrapped up with a set of bone armor and was surrounded by spirit crystals. If he didn’t get close to him, he wouldn’t have any chance at all.

However, the sea of blood seethed and the Zheng clansmen kept on howling non-stop. They pounced forth, unafraid of death, forming a densely-packed formation that was like a great prison that confined him. He was unable to break free from the imprisonment.

The Zheng clansmen were transcendent creatures that were at the elite cultivator level.

Their numbers were great like ants and this place was their nest, their homeground. With the reinforcement from the blood sea, all of them were tough and resilient as c.o.c.kroaches and there was no end to them.

Feng Lin was stuck in a predicament and his mental state was brought to an extremely low level. If he didn’t even have a chance to fight with his life on the line, then it’d really be despair for him.

Both him and these Zheng Clan’s members were all transcendent creatures and they moved very quickly. Their exchanged blows were like lightning and sparks, dissipating in an instant.

After a round of great battle, the place was turned upside down.

Every second pa.s.sed by extremely slowly.

Feng Lin counted silently in his heart, and two minutes was up very quickly.

He knew that regardless of what, he mustn’t wait anymore. Otherwise, when the spirit explosion medicine’s effect ran out, he—together with the other members of the team—would lose their battle prowess and could only wait to be slaughtered.

Wu wu wu!

His metal cudgel swung about, bringing forth the violent blood sea.

Feng Lin fought against the great army by himself.

The moment these savage and hideous monsters got close, they would be sent flying out and crushed into paste.

However, the Zheng clansmen still gushed forth crazily without any fear, forming over ten layers around him.

Each time Feng Lin broke through one of their layers, there would be new members of the Zheng Clan crowding over, forming a new circle.

Layers after layers… Feng Lin was unable to find any opportunity to break out.

He was outnumbered. Other than fighting with his life on the line, he didn’t think about anything else.

In the end, in order to conserve his strength, he used the smallest amount of strength to release the greatest prowess. He gave up on using the cudgel and used his hands instead. He sent out the Sky Flipping Hammer Imprint!

He raised both his hands, which were like hammers that could flip the world, and sent them cras.h.i.+ng down. A great force came from them and the air became extremely heavy.

Over ten figures were sent flying out and crashed together.

Immortal Slaying Sword Imprint!

His body turned into a sword, piercing through the air with great sharpness. Wherever he pa.s.sed by, everything would break from the slash. There was nothing that he couldn’t slice through. The monsters’ bodies were slashed into pieces.

Yin Yang Mirror Imprint!

His palms represented Yin and Yang respectively like two sides of a mirror, a mixture of truth and falsehood. It was hard to distinguish between the two, and the monsters’ wills were dragged into an illusionary world, unable to break out.

…

Feng Li displayed all of his moves consecutively, being harsh without any restraints, killing many of the monsters.

However, the Zheng clansmen seemed to be endless, drowning him like tidal waves.

Many figures were engaged in an intense battle within the blood sea.

In the distance, Yi and Su Li were also in a predicament. Their blood was being controlled by the king of the Zheng Clan, and it was hard for them to break free.

All three of them were left in an unprecedented impa.s.se.

War G.o.d Spear [1]!

Thunderous explosions rang out in the sky and suddenly, a huge spear came thrusting over, piercing ten or more members of the Zheng Clan together like a skewer of tanghulu.

The spear kept on moving around, stirring the blood sea into a great mess.

G.o.ddess’ Light!

Majestic golden light spread out, filled with a ma.s.sive and dignified will, wiping out all of the malevolence in the blood sea.

The eyes of the Zheng Clan’s members that were encased by the light turned from blood-colored into faint gold. They then turned and started to attack their own kind.

It was a ma.s.sacre between the same race.

The Zheng Clan’s formation was thrown into a mess, and the blood sea was turned into an even stickier mess.

The king of the Zheng Clan also sensed a powerful will piercing into its mind and it stopped its actions.

Due to the timely a.s.sistance, Feng Lin and the other two could take the opportunity to break free.

They turned and noticed that the Greek sisters had dealt with their enemies and had come over to render a.s.sistance.

Seeing that the situation was dire, the two sisters immediately took the spirit explosion medicine and their vitality far surpa.s.sed their original level.

“More ants who have come to court death!” The king of the Zheng Clan wore an extremely grim countenance.

Seeing that its subordinates were killing each other, it could no longer sit with poise on the throne, looking down on them with arrogance. It stood up and let out a raging bellow.

“Jiliguluwa…” A series of weird words rang out from its mouth, filled with rage and violence, suppressing one’s spirit.

The Zheng clansmen who were in the midst of internal war instantly entered a daze on the spot. They seemed to have been brought to their senses and were trying to break free from Yana’s mental control.

However, how could Yana possibly let it have its way?

After taking the spirit explosion medicine, her entire body was covered in golden armor that seemed as if it was material. She pointed out into the distance with her scepter and ma.s.sive spirit waves swept out, causing the Zheng Clan’s members to be unable to resist her control and continue to kill each other.

Chaos broke out in the nest, and the impact brought by the king of the Zheng Clan was greatly discounted.

Blood flowing in reverse!

Seeing that it couldn’t regain its control over the Zheng Clan, the leader let out an enraged bellow and grabbed out its two hands in the direction of the Greek sisters. It was as if it wanted to tug out their hearts from their chests.

Yana’s and Aris’s countenance instantly changed and they spurted out blood. Their actions were slowed down as well.

Seeing that, Feng Lin immediately threw himself before them, using his body to fend off the mysterious power that was permeating the air.

His face flushed up and he let out a stifled grunt as he forcibly suppressed his scorching blood.

It was only then did the Greek sisters appear better.

“Open up a path for me! I need an opportunity,” said Feng Lin in a low voice.

The Greek sisters had worked together with him for a very long time and immediately understood what he was thinking.

Although this method was very rash and daring, given that they had already entered an impa.s.se, they would really lose all chances if they still didn’t have the courage to take the risk.

At this moment, they could only choose to believe in Feng Lin, because he was the strongest person in the team. If there was still a hint of chance, he would be the one who would be able to grab it.

If they were to continue dragging this fight, they would have no chance of winning. They would definitely die.

“Attack together!” Yana communicated mentally, calling for Yi and Su Li to join in as well.

All four of them weren’t indecisive people, given that they had reached their current cultivation realm. They understood the current situation and instantly came to an agreement.

They no longer held back and focused all of their powers into a single move, attacking together.

Triple Crows Descent!

Yi’s countenance was grim and even his hands that were pulling the bow were trembling. Three sharp arrows shot out, turning into golden crows that were two times bigger than before. They came plunging down!

Six-tails Rotational Loop!

Six tails swung around and six different energy spheres kept on spinning non-stop in the air. Electricity, ice, fire… All of them collided and a black hole formed in the center, wiping out everything.

War G.o.d Hammer!

Aris controlled the battle statue’s ma.s.sive figure to charge into the blood sea. Its fists were clenched tightly, and like huge hammers that were as heavy as Mount Tai, they came cras.h.i.+ng down.

Mental Chaos!

Yana kept on swinging her scepter, throwing out chaotic wills that caused living creatures to lose all of their intelligence, leaving only chaos behind as they killed each other.

…

The four of them attacked together, combining their attacks’ prowess, sending them out violently and creating waves that were like typhoons sweeping out.

Even the king of the Zheng Clan was fl.u.s.tered when facing the attacks of four grand cultivator-level experts.

Even though they were grand cultivators just for ten minutes, they were still grand cultivators.

Moreover, their energy levels far surpa.s.sed that of an average grand cultivator.

The surging blood sea was instantly smashed aside, revealing a large hole.

An afterimage shot out. In an instant, a series of cudgel shadows appeared, striking on the king of the Zheng Clan, releasing bang bang sounds.

“Courting death!” the king of the Zheng Clan drew in a deep breath and the red-colored blood aura from the blood sea gathered into its body. The bone armor that covered its body rapidly grew, making it look increasingly savage. It was like a humanoid-type ferocious beast, s.h.i.+ning in blood light all over, and sharp thorns grew on its four limbs.

Bang bang bang!

The punches were like violent gales, and the cudgel came striking down like a rainstorm.

The man and monster fought intensely.

The cudgel attacked fiercely as Feng Lin took the form of a violent monkey with the might to take on one million heavenly soldiers.

In terms of their moves’ profoundness, the king of the Zheng Clan was no match for Feng Lin at all and it kept getting hit.

However, this monster was like a humanoid-type weapon. It didn’t dodge but took on Feng Lin head-on.

Although its punches and claw-attacks were crude, its fierceness was true blue. When it scratched Feng Lin’s body, sparks appeared.

Both of their bodies were invulnerable and their attacks struck with a great impact.

Their fight continued from the blood sea to the air. Repercussive waves from the battles spread out and the powerful impact from the waves pierced holes through the walls and sent rocks and soil splattering.

Blood splattered, filled with penetrating force. Even Yana and the other three didn’t dare to get close at all.

The Zheng Clan’s members that were dragged into the battle instantly turned into pulps. They wanted to escape as far as possible.

The eyes of Yana and the other three contracted uncontrollably when they saw such a terrifying battle scene

Regardless if it was their cultivation or vitality, Feng Lin was far below that of his opponent. Even though he had brought out all of his capabilities, he could only depend on his physique to maintain a situation where the victory was undecided.

But Feng Lin was extremely clear that time wasn’t on his side.

The effect of the medicine was only ten minutes, and half of the time had already pa.s.sed by. With the pa.s.sing of each additional second, the situation would be worse for him.

He could already feel that his power was rapidly depleting.

A hint of determination flashed in Feng Lin’s heart. However, until the very last moment, he was still hesitant.

If he were really to use that, the consequences would be dire. It would cause damage to both friend and foe, and even he didn’t have the confidence to survive it.

Boom!

Holy Sword Light!

Chaos broke out in the nest.

A huge sword light broke through the earth barriers and came slas.h.i.+ng down with a pure and domineering force that penetrated through the nest thoroughly.

After the members of the Zheng Clan were killed, their bodies crumbled silently, turning into nothingness. It was as if their existence itself had been completely wiped out.

The purifying force restrained the blood sea’s demonic force.

Against it, the Zheng Clan’s means were no longer effective and they were instantly killed.

The paladin team charged in, panting heavily. Their armors were stained with all sorts of blood and they appeared to be in an abnormally sorry state.

Even though they were a team formed from purely grand cultivators, they were also besieged by countless native races and didn’t have it easy.

“So it’s you guys!” the leader of the paladin team had a good look at Feng Lin’s team and his eyes contracted. “You guys stole the airdrop box’s resources the other time and yet you still haven’t given up on your sinister designs. To think that you’ve come again to seize the spirit crystal bead. You guys are courting death!”

Having suffered in the hands of Feng Lin’s team although they were so much weaker, the paladin team was extremely enraged. The five of them took on different positionings, forming the Pentagon Formation. Majestic holy light came sweeping down, filling the s.p.a.ce as if the sun was s.h.i.+ning brightly, evaporating the blood sea as well.

The members of the Zheng Clan who couldn’t dodge turned into ashes under the holy light and dissipated into the air.

“This is bad!” When Aris, Yi, and the other two saw the paladin team’s appearance, they felt that things weren’t good and rapidly dodged.

There were wolves in front and tigers at the back! [2]

Seeing the situation, Feng Lin didn’t hesitate anymore; he knew what he should be doing. Because otherwise, they would really die tragically.

“You guys, escape quickly!” shouted Feng Lin coldly.

“Go!” Yana’s eyes contracted as if she had understood something. She took the lead and fled, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible.

Aris, Yi, and Su Li followed closely behind her, not looking back at all.

“Leave them be! Seize the spirit crystal bead first before we teach these thieves a good lesson!” The leader of the paladins let out a cold snort and led the other four members to pounce forth. He stared at the spirit crystal bead, seemingly bent on getting his hands on it.

Five holy swords weaved to form a net in the air, wanting to kill both the king of the Zheng Clan and Feng Lin together.

At this moment, Feng Lin chose to advance instead of retreating, pouncing toward the Zheng Clan’s king.

“Die!” The Zheng Clan’s king was savage and it clawed out fiercely with both hands.

However, Feng Lin completely gave up on defending and attacked.

Pffft!

Powerful force seeped through his skin’s barriers, penetrating into his organs and they started seething.

Blood dripped down from the corners of Feng Lin’s lips, but his four limbs wrapped around the Zheng Clan’s king like a python.

The Zheng Clan’s king immediately felt that things weren’t good, as if there would be impending doom. Its body kept on twisting non-stop and it struck out punches onto Feng Lin’s body incessantly, causing his body to keep on shaking.

Creak creak.

A greyish-white color mysteriously appeared on Feng Lin’s skin. His skin became as st.u.r.dy as rock, rapidly turning into stone. He turned into a man of stone, seemingly having turned into one with the Zheng Clan’s leader.

Four spherical-shaped objects at his waist started to emit light.

“This is bad! It’s the Deathray Grenade!” The leader of the paladins charged over rapidly and when he saw this, he immediately shouted out and retreated at an even greater speed.

However, it was already too late!

A series of gray light burst out and intense radiations extended throughout the entire s.p.a.ce. There was no dodging it. Quantum flow charged around everywhere and there was nothing that could stop them.

“d.a.m.n it!” The king of the Zheng Clan bellowed furiously but was instantly drowned within the light. Gradually, its sound slowly disappeared.

A series of gray light filled up the ma.s.sive s.p.a.ce and everything lost their colors, having no more traces of life.

Everything fell silent.

There was only a corpse left, lying on the ground. Its skin was pale, and blood seeped out like strong pus. It gradually melted into meat paste.

A huge body stood on the blood throne, not moving. Its pair of eyes were still wide-open, filled with horror and inability to accept this outcome.

Unable to die in peace!

Ka ka ka!

The stone crust crumbled.

A skinny figure broke out from the stone crust like a cicada breaking out from its skin. His strong powerful body shriveled, becoming skin and bones, and his aura became extremely weak.

“Cough cough cough!”

He lowered his head and coughed out blood before putting in great effort to raise his head and reveal his face.

Who else was it but Feng Lin?

The radiation from the Deathray Grenade could specifically kill living cells, wiping out all signs of life.

Feng Lin had fought with his life on the line and detonated four Deathray Grenades. With it, he finally managed to kill all the lives in the surrounding, fighting his way out of the impa.s.se.

However, it wasn’t easy for him either.

Although the Stonebirth Transformation had fended off the majority of the radiation, he still suffered great injuries. Most of the cells in his body had completely died and he was in an extremely weak state.

Right now, probably even a young child would be able to defeat him.

A great man had to be ruthless. If one wished to gain profit in risk, they would have to be ruthless to others, and even more so toward themselves.

He almost lost his life in this attempt!

Fortunately…

Feng Lin slowly walked over and picked up the blood-colored spherical spirit crystal from the hands of the Zheng Clan’s king. A small blood-colored dragon was still swimming about within it, as if it was alive.

They had finally gotten their hands on the spirit crystal bead!
