Chapter 93

Zhang Yan slashed and killed Li Weimin, his figure not pausing for a moment as a sword light smoothly pierced through the smoke and clouds. He did not bother with the banner that had fallen to the ground. There were over ten Blood Soul Sect disciples surrounding the smoke and clouds, and a Xuan Guang realm cultivator was rapidly heading this way. If he were to be entangled, he would truly be unable to leave. As for whether he could seize this opportunity to escape in time, that would depend on Xie Zongyuan himself.

At this moment, the people on the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat could not see the situation within the smoke and clouds. Liu Tao said in a deep voice, "I wonder if Senior Brother Zhang has succeeded."

Fang Zhen sneered coldly, "It’s wishful thinking. Could that person be so easily killed? Zhang Yan is probably already trapped in the formation."

At this moment, a cultivator behind him pointed forward and shouted, "Look, the smoke is dispersing!" Everyone was stunned and looked forward together.

Without the main banner being controlled, the remaining secondary banners no longer moved, and the smoke and clouds began to slowly dissipate.

Liu Tao's expression brightened, and he turned to shout, "Senior Brother Xie, hurry and go, Senior Brother Zhang has succeeded!" Xie Zongyuan had already made preparations when Zhang Yan rushed into the smoke and clouds. Seeing this situation, he did not hesitate for a moment. With a wave of his talisman, the Sandalwood Boat rose into the air, and a beam of light streaked across the sky, heading straight for the water column.

Fang Zhen originally wanted to follow, but after taking a step forward, he hesitated and ultimately did not move. He thought to himself, "How could the Blood Soul Sect disciples not have a backup plan? Xie Zongyuan is foolish; this is a self-destructive move. I don’t need to accompany him to his death!"

However, the situation that followed was beyond his expectations. Li Weimin's sudden death left the Blood Soul Sect disciples momentarily at a loss, and their reaction was slow. As a result, no one came to block Xie Zongyuan, and the Sandalwood Boat smoothly entered the inverted water column. With the water rising, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Fang Zhen was dumbfounded, looking at the scene in disbelief. Xie Zongyuan had actually escaped successfully? He couldn’t help but feel a great sense of regret. If he had seized the opportunity just now, he might have been able to break through as well. But now...

He looked at the blood light rapidly approaching from the sky and the Blood Soul Sect disciples in chaos below. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Follow me and fight our way out!"

He leaped forward, jumping off the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, heading straight for the water column. The three cultivators behind him, who always followed his lead, also followed without hesitation.

According to their original plan, the goal of sending Xie and Feng away had been achieved. They should leave as soon as possible to avoid a direct confrontation with the Blood Soul Sect disciples, who had a Xuan Guang realm cultivator. They would then wait patiently for the higher-level cultivators from the Ming沧 Sect to come to their rescue.

However, both Liu Tao and Cheng An, seeing that they were almost out of the demon cave and that Xie Zongyuan and Feng Ming had escaped so easily, could not resist the temptation. Their original plans wavered.

The demon cave was too dangerous, and taking one more step might allow them to escape. Seeing Fang Zhen lead the charge, they both gritted their teeth and followed.

Fang Zhen knew this was a matter of life and death. If the Xuan Guang realm cultivator caught up in time, he would not be able to escape. Therefore, he fully activated the Five Fire Divine Circle, unleashing flames recklessly.

Under his relentless assault, not only did the smoke and clouds ahead shatter, but the Blood Soul Sect disciples were also forced to retreat, driven to the side. He truly broke through, and with the inverted water column just a step away, he was about to escape, feeling a great sense of relief. However, at that moment, a blood line shot towards him, reaching him in the blink of an eye. By the time he realized it, it was too late to react.

With a "pu" sound, he let out a piercing scream as the arm holding the Five Fire Divine Circle was severed.

The blood line, like a living thing, wrapped around the arm, instantly devouring the flesh and bones, leaving only the divine circle to fall.

The three cultivators behind him, seeing this, were filled with fear. They did not care about Fang Zhen's life and each rushed forward, trying to escape first.

A blood light flashed, and a figure appeared in front of the three.

One of the cultivators, unable to dodge in time, collided with the figure with a "bang." His entire body exploded into a cloud of blood and flesh. The blood light swirled, and everything disappeared in an instant.

The two remaining cultivators were terrified and stopped, looking up to see a red-robed cultivator standing in front of them, his face cold and terrifying.

They felt a strong sense of danger and shouted, each activating their magical treasures. A flying sword and a white stone flew into the air, heading towards the cultivator.

A look of disdain flashed in Li Weide's eyes. He crossed his arms, floating there, and a blood-colored Xuan Guang emerged from his body, sweeping horizontally and engulfing both the cultivators and their magical treasures. With a squeeze and a press, he devoured their flesh and blood, leaving no trace.

This was the power of a Xuan Guang realm cultivator! Facing a Ming Qi realm disciple, if you don’t have a good magical treasure to protect you, a single sweep of the Xuan Guang will result in your death and the destruction of your soul!

Fang Zhen was terrified, knowing that his lost divine circle could be recalled, but the other party would not give him the chance. He made a quick decision, turned, and ran.

A fierce look flashed in Li Weide's eyes, and he pointed forward. A blood line emerged from his fingertip and struck Fang Zhen's back with a "chi" sound.

Fang Zhen stumbled forward, his body shaking, but he was unharmed and continued to flee.

A strange look flashed in Li Weide's eyes, and he coldly snorted, "Do you think a piece of armor can protect you?"

He remained still, and two ten-meter-wide, blood-soaked hands emerged from his head, reaching forward and covering a distance of over twenty meters in the blink of an eye, grabbing Fang Zhen like a toy.

One hand grabbed his head, the other his feet, lifting him up and tearing him apart. He let out a惨叫, and a thread of his soul floated out.

The blood light swirled upward, and Li Weide was about to absorb the soul, but suddenly felt a pain in his eyes. A bright light emerged from Fang Zhen's soul, protecting it. It broke through the blood hands and dove into the nearby water column, disappearing instantly.

The divine circle that had fallen to the ground also leaped up and followed.

Li Weide frowned, knowing that this person must have been protected by a powerful cultivator, preventing his soul from being destroyed. However, since he had already escaped, he no longer thought about it and turned his gaze to Liu Tao and Cheng An.

Liu Tao had just activated the Sea Calming Stele, pressing several Blood Soul Sect disciples to the ground, but suddenly felt his body tighten, as if being targeted by something extremely dangerous.

He had already seen Fang Zhen's fate and knew he could not escape. He sighed inwardly, not looking at the approaching Li Weide but turning to look at the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat. Seeing a blue light flying towards it, he felt a great sense of relief.

A thick bloody smell surged, and a blood light swirled down, swallowing him. Another blood-colored Xuan Guang swirled, engulfing Cheng An. Li Weide did not stop, heading straight for the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat.

In just a few moments, all the Ming沧 Sect disciples who had tried to escape from the demon cave, except for Xie Zongyuan and Feng Ming, were killed.

A blue light flashed, and Zhang Yan stood on the edge of the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, his gaze calm. He had seen everything clearly, sighed lightly, and turned to the nervous Chen Lady, saying, "Madam Chen, let’s go!"

Seeing Zhang Yan's calm and composed demeanor, Chen Lady felt reassured. Due to her low cultivation, she had been responsible for controlling the flying boat and had not participated in the battle. She had not found her husband and had not thought of rushing out, so she had stayed here and survived.

Hearing Zhang Yan's words, she waved her talisman, and the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat roared to life, speeding forward.

Li Weide was rushing over, and seeing the flying boat's speed increasing, his eyes flashed with a fierce light. He waved his sleeve, and two blood lines shot out.

The blood lines were extremely fast. Zhang Yan managed to dodge, but Chen Lady could not. A "pu" sound was heard as the blood light pierced her chest, and she let out a scream, falling to the ground. The talisman in her hand dropped, and the blood light pounced on her, devouring her flesh and essence.

The blood line heading towards Zhang Yan turned in mid-air and pounced again. At such close range, he had no time to react and threw an object into the air. A winged shield appeared in front of him.

A "crack" sound was heard as the shield broke, and the blood line collided with it, dissipating into a faint blood mist.

Zhang Yan took a few steps forward, picked up the talisman Chen Lady had dropped, and activated it, causing the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, which had slowed down, to speed up again.

Feeling the danger was not over, he did not hesitate to take out the "Zai He Qi Chun Zao" and activate it, instantly enveloping himself in a beam of light.

Sure enough, the blood line that had devoured Chen Lady, which had been dormant, suddenly leaped up and collided with the light column.

The light was incredibly strong, and no matter how the blood line attacked, Zhang Yan stood firm. He looked into the distance and saw Li Weide still in hot pursuit. He sneered and continuously activated the talisman, increasing the flying boat's speed. Li Weide watched helplessly as Zhang Yan flew farther and farther away, finally stopping and looking at the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, which had become a small light point in the distance, coldly saying, "Weimin, rest assured. No matter where he goes, I will kill him and avenge you!"
