Chapter 1995 - Holy Spirit Sect
To this, everyone was not surprised at all. Although they were somewhat discouraged, they quickly pulled themselves together.
In the eyes of the crowd, activating such a powerful Dao Artifact would definitely expend a lot of energy and mental strength. In the end, sandalwood was still just a peak level Heavenly King, not a Heavenly Emperor Stage powerhouse like them. It was already the third time he was activating this treasure, and he definitely would not be able to hold on for long.
As long as he could last until the sandalwood bell was exhausted, or until his heart was exhausted, it would be as easy as flipping his hand to catch Tao You and him.
Of course, the most important thing was that they were already quite a distance away from Tan Zhong, and just as they attacked, they retreated once again, ensuring that they did not fall into the range of the sucking. This way, they could keep a safe distance from the terrifying Dao Artifact and not be drawn in.
As a result, everyone launched a new round of attacks without the slightest delay.
But in that instant, a terrified and helpless shout suddenly echoed in the world. Everyone turned to look and saw a white figure uncontrollably pouncing towards the rapidly moving mountains. In just the time it took to snap a finger, the figure had uncontrollably traveled tens of miles.
Surprisingly, it was the black clothed man who had disappeared without a trace earlier. A small ball of white light shot back from a distance and landed on his right palm, which was extended out of his palm. It spun around and revealed a faint white l.u.s.ter.
"Elder Yuan!"
A cry of shock suddenly sounded. The one who spoke was an old man, and his ugly face was filled with shock.
They could already see that the white shadow was a white-clothed youth. He was the supreme elder of the strongest sect in the eighteen days of Qing Xu Tian, the "Spirit Void Saint Sect". His name was Yuan Honglang, and although he looked like a young man, he was already over ten thousand years old and was already a peak-level Heavenly King thousands of years ago.
With his cultivation level and strength, he was so easily ambushed!
Although Yuan Honglang was still alive, he was forced to rush towards the mountain range. The power of the sucking there was terrifying, so how could he possibly have a chance to escape?
Sure enough, dozens of miles away, the white shadow only paused for a moment. It had just stabilized its body, but it could no longer withstand the force of the sucking and shot forward again, dancing non-stop, wanting to stop its charge. Unfortunately, all of its actions were in vain.
After a short while, Yuan Honglang had already disappeared among the mountains.
This time, there were three Peak Heavenly Kings from the "Spirit Void Saint Sect". One of them went to kill Tan Zhong and Tao You and was sucked in by that Dao item. Now, Yuan Honglang had entered the sect again, and in less than a quarter of an hour, there was only one left of the three Great Elders of the Spirit Void Saint Sect.
This sudden turn of events greatly shocked everyone. Although the attacks from their hands did not stop, their power had greatly decreased, and it was impossible for them to cause any ripples in the mountains. The crowd no longer cared about this matter anymore, and most of their attention was already focused on the black-clothed man.
However, the black-clothed man didn"t linger any longer. In the next moment, he disappeared from everyone"s line of sight.
The crowd had long pushed their thoughts to the extreme as they scanned the area over and over again, but they still couldn"t find any traces of him. It was as if the man in black had disappeared into thin air. They didn"t know where he was hiding or where he would appear next, but they felt a sense of fear rising from the bottom of their hearts.
"Everyone, don"t panic!"
A tall and st.u.r.dy old man furrowed his brows and shouted loudly. A powerful aura of power surged out from his body, and in an instant, a violent storm seemed to have formed around him. The air fluctuated rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it had covered an area of a few thousand meters around him.
Upon sensing the movements of the old man, everyone"s eyes lit up.
The reason why the man in black had been able to sneak an attack was because he had been caught off guard. As a result, it was impossible for the man in black to approach him silently. As such, without any hesitation, all the peak stage Heavenly Kings imitated the tall and st.u.r.dy old man"s actions, and violent undulations arose from all around them.
However, taking advantage of this moment, the mountain range that was continuously moving was already much closer to him, and the terrifying power of the sucking was already close by. Everyone was slightly surprised and immediately retreated backwards. The Dao Artifact in their hands began to move again. A violent and terrifying attack came whistling out.
"Aoouuu ~ ~ ~"
At this moment, a wild roar filled with both anger and shock resounded throughout the sky.
Everyone"s heart thumped loudly. They saw another figure flying out of control high up in the sky, disappearing into the crowd of mountains. This time, the one hit was the tall and st.u.r.dy old man from before. At his original location, a familiar black figure had appeared.
The actions of the burly old man were actually useless, as the black clothed man was still able to quietly sneak into his side.
This discovery frightened everyone. They felt their hair stand on end. A bone-piercing chill rose from the depths of their souls, spreading to their limbs and organs in an instant.
The reason why everyone chose to stay here to fight against that powerful Dao Artifact, was because the black clothed man"s consecutive attacks were rapidly destroying their confidence. Such a sneaky sneak attack that was hard to defend against, which Peak Heavenly King could block it.
If they did not have the Dao Artifact that could give birth to the terrifying power of sucking, with their strength, being ambushed would at most result in heavy injuries and could still fight. If they gathered the strength of everyone, killing the black clothed man would not be difficult. But now, if he was ambushed, he would be done for immediately.
"He"s gone!"
A middle-aged man shouted in shock.
Everyone could not help but feel their hearts tighten. They instantly heard a scream, and they instantly captured a scene that they would never forget. The black figure that had just disappeared appeared behind a purple-robed man like a bolt of lightning, and a ma.s.s of white light shot out from his palm like a thunderbolt.
The purple-robed man"s reaction was fast and nimble as he waved the huge saber in his hand.
The result did not go against everyone"s expectations. The moment the huge blade hacked at the ball of white light, it actually cracked open, and the purple-robed man also flew out uncontrollably as if he had been struck by a ma.s.sive boulder. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the mountain peaks.
The third one!
They suddenly realised that for the black clothed man to succeed in his surprise attack, being able to catch them off guard was indeed one of the reasons, but most importantly, it was his terrifying strength. With his strength, even if he did not ambush them, he could instantly injure a peak Heavenly King.
An expert with such terrifying power, was he really not a Heavenly Emperor?
