523 Coming to an End (1/2)

The Sacred Flame Sect knew that this current operation did not change things significantly. Hence, they were very quick and decisive in their retreat. Large groups of ancient martial art practitioners from Sacred Flame Sect ran outside and dashed out of the inner city one by one.

The ancient martial art practitioners of Intentionless Sect had no intention of giving up their chance to teach their enemies a lesson. They gave chase and continued to kill them. They wanted to bring as much destruction to Sacred Flame Sect as possible.

The psychedelic array surrounding the inner city had been used to trap Intentionless Sect. However, it was not powerful enough to keep out the ancient martial art practitioners of Intentionless Sect. At that moment there were groups continuously surging into Intentionless City with the goal of joining Intentionless Sect. All of them were dressed in the Intentionless Sect costume.

The person in the lead was the Young Mistress of Intentionless Sect, Chen Zi. She had gathered all the people that were rushing back to Intentionless Sect outside the city and tried to force their way in. Coincidentally, they had bumped into those Sacred Flame Sect people that were escaping. A huge battle instantly erupted between the two sides.

After Sacred Flame Sect had given up control on the outer city, they had allowed Intentionless Sect the chance to gather themselves both inside and outside. Hence, the Intentionless Sect was able to attack on two fronts.

”Young Mistress, why are those ancient martial art practitioners from Sacred Flame Sect running away? Could it be that Intentionless Sect has won?” Zou Guangbo was by Chen Zi's side. As he looked at those ancient martial art practitioners running out in throngs from inner city, there was a little confusion in his eyes, but more so an unmasked happiness. From the current situation, it seemed as though Sacred Flame Sect had been defeated!

It did not seem possible. He could not imagine how Intentionless Sect could have possibly defeated the fierce and raging Sacred Flame Sect. However, it seemed as though it was indeed the case. One after the other, ancient martial art practitioners from Sacred Flame Sect escaped like dogs. Meanwhile, the ancient martial art practitioners from Intentionless Sect were giving chase.

”We'll know once we break in.” A bright look of clarity flashed in Chen Zi's eyes. Taking the lead, she ran fiercely towards the inner city. Zou Guangbo, worried for her safety, closely followed behind her. Two of the Intentionless Sect Elders who had rushed back were responsible for intercepting those Sacred Flame Sect ancient martial art practitioners who were trying to escape.

The ancient martial art practitioners of Sacred Flame Sect started to tremble with fear as they saw the sheer number of ancient martial art practitioners ready to intercept them, even including two Sect Elders.

Intentionless Sect had actually been so well-prepared. Many people were suspecting whether the defeat of Sacred Flame Sect this time was something long planned for by Intentionless Sect.

In the inner city, Zhu Lanhuo did not retreat immediately. Instead, he fixed his eyes on Mo Wen. With his Cultivation, he could retreat anytime with nobody having the power to stop him. However, he had only one chance of catching Mo Wen and could not give up the opportunity so easily.

As Mo Wen walked in front of Zhu Lanhuo, Zhu Lanhuo managed to move away immediately. As an ancient martial art practitioner with the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm, a single move from him was naturally stunning. The surrounding air stilled instantly as though it had become sludge. Nobody could get close to him.

Instead, his body had immediately appeared before Mo Wen.

”Fire Bone Palm.” He only had one chance. Naturally, Zhu Lanhuo would not allow Mo Wen to escape from his clutches so easily. The Fire Bone Palm was one of his ultimate skills. It was renowned in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. The only people who could block his Fire Bone Palm were those ancient martial art practitioners with the same level of the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. Even an ancient martial art practitioner with the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm would not be able to do it.

A ray of fire had appeared above Zhu Lanhuo's palm. Immediately, his hand had turned as clear as crystal. It was just like a red crystal skeleton hand and was constantly sprouting out gorgeous flames. The weird hand directly appeared above Mo Wen's head and fiercely came down upon him.

At the border, Chen Zi had just broken into the inner city. She immediately glanced up to the sky to see the image of Zhu Lanhuo attacking Mo Wen. Her head constricted and her expression changed drastically as she almost cried out in shock. However, before she could voice her concern, something that was even more shocking happened.

Mo Wen did not even try to hide as a clear look in through his eyes. It looked as though there were two bunches of golden flames raging at the same time. In the next moment, that Fire Bone Palm that possessed the scary pressure disappeared immediately. The stifling heat had also lifted immediately. It was as though nothing had happened. Zhu Lanhuo's body froze suddenly.

Mo Wen had already taken a step out and stood in front of a dazed Zhu Lanhuo. Then, he shot out a leg, brushing it against Zhu Lanhuo's face and sending him flying.

At the same time, Chen Wuhui's body finally started to move. It was as though he had calculated precisely where Zhu Lanhuo's body would end up. With a flash of his figure, he had already positioned himself at the spot as he waited for Zhu Lanhuo to arrive.

However, Zhu Lanhuo had become completely conscious halfway towards Chen Wuhui. His body twitched strongly and he changed his flight direction. He thus managed to escape from Chen Wuhui's attack by a small margin.

A look of surprise flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. His expression also turned slightly more solemn. Zhu Lanhuo was actually very capable. In such a short period of time, he had been able to regain consciousness. It was even quite a bit faster than Li Zhuoying. It was no wonder that he was the Sect Leader and Li Zhuoting had been the Deputy Sect Leader.

”Just now, you… how could it be!” Zhu Lanhuo pointed at Mo Wen in disbelief. ”Soul attack? It was really a Soul attack?” Could it be that he had been possessed! Or was he dreaming? How could a youth possibly have the ability to perform a Soul attack? Wasn't it a legendary remarkable power that was only present in Immortal Cultivators?
