Chapter 919: Chapter 916: Becoming a Caged Bird

”Trying to run?”

”It’s too late now!”

Without warning.

A chilling laugh echoed within the dark canyon.

In an instant.

A powerful blood light surged, enveloping everyone within.

A Profound Rank Ninth Tier Array was revealed.

The blood-red light illuminated the dark canyon, and then cultivators in blood-colored robes with blood-red eyes emerged.

They all wore playful smiles, making everyone shiver and trembling with fear.

Because no one expected.

So many experts were lying in ambush here.

Their numbers greatly exceeded what the elite of the Nine Provinces could match.

At the same time.

Those outside also saw the formation, immediately changing their faces.

”This is bad, we’ve been ambushed!” Situ Shu’s expression was grave; this unexpected situation caught everyone off guard and was hard to accept.

”This is the Yellow Tier Blood Demon Great Array!” The leading elder from Jade Maiden Palace, Ning Yin, exclaimed, this array was extremely terrifying; it could devour the vitality of all creatures within.

At the mention of the Blood Demon Grand Array, everyone’s faces changed.

Because they had all witnessed the horror of the Blood Demon Grand Array.

A thousand years ago.

Over thirty Nascent Soul Stage experts attacked it together before breaking the Blood Demon Grand Array.

This fact alone shows how terrifying the Blood Demon Grand Array is.

”Did you really think our Demon Sect accidentally revealed our whereabouts?”

An old man in a black robe appeared bizarrely in the void; he exuded an ethereal aura, seemed to blend into the heavens and earth.

At the same time, more than ten figures in black robes appeared one after another, including Nascent Soul Stage cultivators and Golden Core Stage Peak cultivators.

They all wore intriguing smiles.

Everyone’s hearts trembled.

Though they didn’t want to admit it, they had to.

The Demon Sect had dug a trap for them, one big enough to bury everyone.

Indeed.

Ever since the Demon Sect surfaced in Yanzhou City, it was to lure them out.

And they hadn’t noticed it at all.

They even planned to lure the Demon Sect out.

Little did they know, they had fallen right into the opponent’s scheme.

”Wu Yuanmu, you old thing, you’re still alive?” Situ Shu’s eyes flashed with fierce killing intent; he recognized the leading elder, as they had fought a thousand years ago.

Wu Yuanmu let out a sharp laugh: ”I should have died, but thirty-odd years ago, I devoured the Nascent Soul of a Ninth Level Golden Core Stage cultivator!”

”Die!”

Nalan Yanran, furious, summoned her longsword and charged at him.

Because she recognized him as the one who murdered her husband.

”Little girl, you alone are not a match for me!” Wu Yuanmu sneered, with a dismissive wave, Nalan Yanran’s longsword was sent flying.

Puff!

Nalan Yanran spit a mouthful of blood uncontrollably.

She was merely a Golden Core Stage Peak cultivator, and faced with a Nascent Soul Stage expert’s counterattack, she was completely powerless.

Situ Shu snorted heavily: ”Since you dare show up, today I’ll walk the path of heaven and slay you evil cultivators!” He said this, and the aura of a Nascent Soul Stage expert burst forth, twisting the void.

Wu Yuanmu sneered: ”You think after we went to great lengths to lure you here, you can kill us?”

Situ Shu produced a sharp sword, his eyes indifferent: ”Even if I can’t kill you, I’ll do my best!”

”Kill!”

With an angry shout, Situ Shu raised his longsword, and a beam of sword qi tore the sky and slashed towards Wu Yuanmu.

The others, unwilling to be outdone, launched a fierce attack.

Their figures drew graceful arcs in the air, the sword light flickered, the sword qi soared, giving a strong visual impact.

Their speed was extremely quick, almost beyond the range of the naked eye.

They waved their fingers, and flames, frost, lightning, and storms erupted in the sky, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield.

Fire blazed fiercely, frost biting cold, lightning power boundless, storm rampaged sweeping; the scene was thrilling.

A fierce battle commenced.

Within the array.

”How could this happen?” A young man looked around in horror at the Demon Sect cultivators slowly closing in, feeling like a bolt from the blue.

Although they all knew there would be a fierce battle today.

But.

The situation had changed.

They went from home ground to away ground.

From active to passive.

This made those Nine Provinces Heavenly Pride who had never faced major challenges feel panic and strong unease.

”Listen to me, all of you, try your best not to stand out!” Xu Wendong sent soul communication to Meng Hao and others.

He understood the meaning of ”shooting the bird that stands out.”

The more one stands out now, the faster one dies.

”Junior Brother Xu, how did you know there was an ambush here?” Lu Chenfeng, while somewhat nervous, felt an inexplicable sense of security following Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong shared his perspective: ”Earlier when we reached the valley floor, I felt the array’s fluctuation, although it was faint, my feeling wasn’t wrong.”

”However, this doesn’t prove anything because even a discarded array, as long as the array base remains, would still emit weak fluctuations.”

”I deduced there was an ambush mainly because of those living vessels in the distance.”

”Unless someone lives here, these things wouldn’t be present.”

”Combined with the array fluctuations I sensed before, I concluded we were ambushed.”

At this, he gave a bitter smile, ”However, I realized it too late.”

Meng Hao gripped his longsword tightly: ”Being able to discern this proves your capability; let’s watch how things unfold next!”

”Brothers, walk the path of heaven, slay the evil cultivators, the time to protect our homes and nation has come!” Yanzhou’s first Heavenly Pride, Huo Anshou, brandished a great Mountain Cleaving Axe and shouted confidently: ”Follow me to slay these Demon Sect scum!”

Saying this, he charged out, his Mountain Cleaving Axe unleashed a devastating light, instantly killing two Demon Sect disciples.

”Kill!”

Seeing Huo Anshou’s bravery, everyone seemed energized, wielding their swords and engaging the surrounding Demon Sect disciples.

The deafening roar, piercing slaughter, and chilling screams incessantly resounded in the dark.

Though many felt fear, they knew this battle was inevitable.

To survive.

The only way was to kill the evil cultivators before them!

Xu Wendong restrained his aura, leading his fellows behind a large stone.

Although today was a competition.

The scores were also important.

However.

Compared to the competition scores, staying alive was evidently more important.

Yet.

Someone didn’t want to let them off so easily.

Yun Feiyang saw their hiding place and shouted loudly: ”Xu Wendong is the strongest among our peers; he’s hiding behind that boulder. Kill him, and you’ll gain immense fortune!”
