Chapter 489: Senior Brother, Come Out of Seclusion
It started raining in the East, an autumn rain.
The entire Eastern Region is so vast, and it is rare to see rain all over the continent.
In addition, the strange phenomena in heaven and earth caused by Lu Xun's breakthrough were still there, with clouds and mist rising, as if one had arrived in a fairyland in the rain.
Under the sky, the mute old man who couldn't speak was obviously feeling the strain.
The power within that crack was very chaotic and surging.
The cultivation of the demon race is more difficult than that of human practitioners.
They require more time and more energy.
However, as mentioned before, at the same level, generally speaking, the demon race is much stronger than human practitioners.
First of all, the demon race has an advantage in terms of physical strength alone.
As the only remaining great saint of the demon race in the world, the mute old man’s strength far exceeds that of an ordinary ninth-level cultivator.
Even so, there were still streaks of blood on Gui Bo's left arm.
What was strange was that his blood turned into blood-colored airflow the moment it flowed out and was absorbed by the crack in the sky.
It's like a big mouth!
Shen Yan stood at Zangshan . He wanted to help, but he was powerless.
At that height, coupled with the pressure brought by the rift, he tried but found he couldn't fly up at all.
But fortunately he discovered that the mute old man had a backup plan; to be more precise, it was the gentleman who had a backup plan.
A piece of cheap rice paper flew out from the mute old man's linen clothes.
This kind of rice paper is obviously what the gentleman uses on a daily basis, and he is the only one who likes this cheap stuff the most.
There was only one big ink character on the rice paper - [Banned]!
At this moment, the piece of rice paper went against the wind, floated upwards, and then stuck to a certain part of the black tortoise's shell.
The rice paper quickly merged into the tortoise shell, and the ink-colored forbidden word flashed a dazzling golden light.
The golden light instantly intertwined with the azure airflow, then lifted the black tortoise shell and came to the crack.
Next, the refining process will begin.
This process will not be too fast, and the mute old man cannot be disturbed.
And at this moment, the high priest who had been waiting for an opportunity outside the East Region began to act.
He was frightened by Gui Bo's strength just now, but it is different now.
He felt like he was okay again.
…
…
Outside the Eastern Territory, the high priest wearing a large felt hat disappeared in an instant.
There was a sound of cracking in the air, as if the air was being torn apart.
He moved too fast.
It was almost in the entire Eastern Region, and only Shen Yan had time to react.
Shen Yan, who was dressed in a black robe, had a frown on his face. Since he didn't even have eyebrows, when he frowned, only wrinkles appeared on his face.
"Activate the mountain protection formation!" A jade token flew out of Shen Yan's hand, and he immediately activated the Demon Sect's mountain protection formation.
In Jieying Peak, the half sword energy left by Yan Li is the first level of the mountain protection formation.
A person of the ninth realm can definitely stop him.
But Shen Yan knew very well that since the other party dared to come, he must have the confidence in his heart.
Sure enough, when the high priest arrived in front of the Demon Sect, three black shadows more than two meters tall immediately appeared behind him!
Every black shadow conveys a terrifying pressure to the surrounding areas.
There are four people in the ninth realm in total!
This made Shen Yan realize the seriousness of the problem!
The mountain protection formation won't last long.
The most important thing is that Gui Bo flew too high.
Even at the height where Lu Xun was suspended in the air, he was still within the protection range of the mountain protection formation.
Gui Bo is different.
The mountain protection formation is mainly used to guard the peaks of the Demon Sect. It is impossible for it to cover the entire sky.
The height at which the mute old man was located was not at all the area where the mountain protection formation was located, which meant that he was completely exposed in the air!
Shen Yan was very clear that the other party could not have been unaware of this.
Sure enough, the high priest and two clones of the Lord were responsible for destroying the mountain protection formation, while the other clone began to fly towards Gui Bo in the sky!
If we don't act now, when will we act?
Shen Yan shouted, "Master, please come out with your sword!"
He had to activate the mountain protection formation in the sect and had no way to go and protect the mute old man.
Besides, he couldn't that height because his body wouldn't be able to sustain it.
But... [Sword Qi is Near] will definitely work!
From the top of Zangshan Mountain, there was a loud sound of swords.
The peerless sword [Sword Qi Approaching] instantly left the hidden mountain and flew towards the sky.
Seeing [Sword Qi Approaching] coming out of the mountain, Shen Yan felt that the pressure on him was slightly relieved, but the current situation could not be solved by [Sword Qi Approaching] alone.
[Sword Qi is Near] After all, it is just a sword. Without someone to wield it, its strength is limited.
Below the ninth level, it can all be solved easily, but at the ninth level, everything undergoes a qualitative change.
It is impossible to kill a ninth realm with a sword that is not driven by anyone.
However, it is still possible to delay that clone.
The high priest was well aware of this, but he was very confident that he would win this time.
"Your Majesty's clone also carries a small wisp of divine power. Although it is very little, it is also powerful!"
"A sword without anyone to wield it can't last long!"
However, what happened next was far beyond the high priest's imagination.
Just as [Sword Qi Is Approaching] was flying up into the sky, the sword body suddenly trembled.
Then, it let out a sword sound that was extremely exciting!
[Sword Qi is Near] The fighting spirit is high and the movement is unstoppable.
It seemed that something had happened, causing it to completely ignore the black shadow at this moment.
Shen Yan looked up at the sky. Just one glance and as a sword cultivator, he understood the difference.
"Flying sword technique! It's flying sword technique!" Shen Yan's eyes widened and his heart was shocked.
【Flying Sword Technique】For sword practitioners, it is one of the simplest sword techniques.
As long as you reach the first level, you can control the sword.
Almost every sword cultivator in the Demon Sect can use this move, so it is not surprising at all.
However, a sword without anyone to wield it cannot perform any sword skills, which is why the power of [Sword Qi Near] is limited.
"Someone is driving the [Sword Energy Approaching]!" Shen Yan turned around and glanced in the direction of Cangshan.
Hidden in the mountains, there is his master who is in seclusion!
The world's number one swordsman, the founder of the Demon Sect, Yan Li!
I saw the [Sword Qi] collide with the black shadow in the air in the blink of an eye, and with the simplest [Flying Sword Technique], it directly cut off the black shadow's right arm and right shoulder!
Somewhere in Zangshan, a man in a black robe and with a pair of sword-like eyebrows just raised his fingertips slightly.
He hasn't even come out of seclusion yet, but the power of just one finger is enough to severely damage the ninth realm!
The man slowly opened his mouth and said:
"Junior brother, Senior Brother, please lend me your sword skills to help me break through the barrier!"
