“Be careful!” Xie Jingsheng did not say anything else. He reminded his companions and continued to attack the other enemies.
He glanced at the situation around him from the corner of his eye, and his heart sank.
The Blood Sea Sect had far more people than them. Moreover, all of them were at the Bright Aperture Stage and were very powerful. If they hadn’t run into Peng Junqin and the others, they would have been surrounded and killed by their enemies.
Even so, the current situation was far from good.
They had never thought that there would be people from the Blood Sea Sect in the spirit cave. Their usual defense training was against demons, so they were easily ambushed by the Blood Sea Sect and caught off guard.
Of the ten disciples who came with Xie Jingsheng, three had already died in battle, and another three had been scattered in the battle. He didn’t know if they were dead or alive.
Among the upper house disciples, Fu Weifang was severely injured. Not only had he completely lost his combat strength, but he had also become a burden.
Peng Junqin and the other inner sect disciples were slightly better, but four of them were killed by the Blood Sea Sect’s sneak attack.
Although they had temporarily joined forces, they were all injured and didn’t have the advantage in numbers. They were completely suppressed.
If that was the case, they could risk their lives to break out of the encirclement. At least a few of them would be able to escape.
After that, they could find a place to hide. When the spirit cave opened again in 20 days, they would be able to leave from here and report to the sect.
However, the Blood Sea Sect’s strength wasn’t limited to this.
With this thought in mind, Xie Jingsheng couldn’t help but look at a tall figure a hundred meters away.
It was a man in his late 20s. He had deeply set facial features and was abnormally burly. He was very intimidating.
It was this person who suddenly attacked just now and severely injured Fu Weifang in a single move.
If Xie Jingsheng and the others hadn’t risked their lives to save him, and if Peng Junqin hadn’t taken out the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token to temporarily force the man back, Fu Weifang would have died on the spot.
“This person is definitely at the ninth level of the Bright Aperture Stage. He might even have forged a few spirit meridians!”
Xie Jingsheng was secretly shocked, but he also felt bitter.
More than twenty Blood Sea Sect disciples were already very troublesome. Together with a man with unfathomable strength, they might really die here today.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a scream.
An inner sect disciple was caught off guard and was pierced by a blood soul. The cold blood energy immediately made him slow down.
In that instant, over half a dozen blood souls had already surrounded him and pounced on him, biting and gnawing crazily. Flesh and blood splattered everywhere.
However, before he could scream, the inner sect disciple was completely eaten up, not even his bones were left.
It happened so fast that Peng Junqin didn’t even have time to save the disciple. His expression instantly became extremely gloomy.
An inner sect disciple approached with an anxious expression and said in a low voice, “Senior Brother Peng, we can’t hold on much longer. Hurry up and use the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token!”
Peng Junqin hesitated.
The Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token was a treasure that he had specially borrowed from the elders of the clan to ensure that he was safe and sound during this trip to the spirit cave.
This treasure was a profound armament made by a cultivator master of the Nine Suns Sect after coincidentally obtaining some inspiration from the sect’s spell, Five Qi Suppression. It was specialized in defeating Yin items and was very effective against spirits like the Earth Essence that were nourished by spiritual essence and were born from the Five Elements.
As for the Blood Sea Sect’s blood soul, it was also a Yin item, so it was extremely restrained by the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token.
In fact, compared to demons like the Earth Essence, the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token was even more lethal to evil beings like the blood souls.
However, although it was powerful, the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token consumed much more spiritual essence than ordinary profound armaments.
Although Peng Junqin was at the ninth level of the Bright Aperture Stage, he had yet to forge his spirit meridians, and his spiritual essence had yet to begin to transform. If he used the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token, he would only be able to last for 15 minutes at most.
They were in a lot of danger at the moment, and the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token was his final trump card. Once he used it and still couldn’t turn the situation around, he would be at the mercy of the enemies!
Not to mention…
Peng Junqin looked at the burly man not far away.
That person gave him a very strong sense of threat.
He had kept the Five Qi G.o.d-subduing Token and not used it because he was afraid of that person and wanted to keep his trump card just in case.
However, the current situation didn’t seem to allow him to hold back anymore.
Seeing Peng Junqin’s hesitation, the inner sect disciple said anxiously, “Senior Brother Peng, we can’t delay any longer. Otherwise, once there are more casualties, our situation will only get worse!”
Peng Junqin took a deep breath and finally made up his mind. He took out a palm-sized jade token from his storage ring and threw it at a Blood Sea Sect disciple holding a blood-colored blade.
The Blood Sea Sect disciple saw a black shadow thrown at him from the corner of his eye and subconsciously controlled the blood soul beside him to pounce at it.
However, before the blood could touch the jade token, the air lit up. A five-colored fog suddenly surged out of the jade token and swept toward the blood soul. In a flash, the blood soul disappeared.
The blood soul was connected to the cultivator’s soul. Now that it was suddenly destroyed, the Blood Sea Sect disciple immediately screamed and spat out a mouthful of blood. His body went limp, and he fell to the ground.
The surrounding Blood Sea Sect disciples were shocked when they saw this. They took a few steps back with fear on their faces..
