Chapter 1552: Driven Back Four (2/2)

Dealing with such a close situation, Ouyang Yangwen only managed to parry with his sword above his head.

The golden axe crashed down with the force of a thousand tons as it smashed into Ouyang Yangwen’s sword. The terrifying power knocked Ouyang Yangwen out of the sky and into the ground.

Jian Chen also hurried over with lightning-like speed as a blur. He caught up to Ouyang Yangwen in a single moment and stabbed out with the Zi Ying Sword.

Ouyang Yangwen swung his sword and blocked the Zi Ying Sword, forcing Jian Chen back at the same time. However, the Qing Suo Sword managed to pierce Ouyang Yangwen’s abdomen, passing through his body as an azure flash. It also deposited a sliver of the power of laws in Ouyang Yangwen’s body.

Ouyang Yangwen paled and vomited blood. He lowered his head to look at his abdomen. Disbelief filled his face as he mumbled while at a loss, “I’ve actually been injured. Impossible, this is impossible. How could I be injured by them?” Ouyang Yangwen struggled to accept this fact.

He was the greatest elder from the World of Forsaken Saints, a late Returnance expert only second to the Spiritking. However, he had just been injured by someone whose true strength had not even reached the Origin realm. This was a great blow to Ouyang Yangwen’s confidence.

“Tie Ta, go kill the other Origin realm experts. I’ll keep him busy,” Jian Chen said to Tie Ta. He then charged toward Ouyang Yangwen. The azure streams of light were unable to keep Ouyang Yangwen trapped. In order to prevent him from disturbing Tie Ta while he dealt with the other Origin realm experts, Jian Chen could only keep Ouyang Yangwen busy.

Without any hesitation, Tie Ta charged toward the other Origin realm experts. He knew that he was still slightly weaker compared to Jian Chen and knew that would have to expend quite some effort in order to kill Returnance experts. Since time was tight, he did not deal with the elders and charged toward the protectors instead.

The protectors from the Sacred Spirit Hall remained restrained. When they saw Tie Ta fly toward them, they immediately revealed different expressions. Some of them opened their mouths and cried for help from the elders.

Two elders temporarily broke free from their restraints and worked together to fight Tie Ta. With Tie Ta’s strength, it was a little difficult for him to face deal with two Returnance experts at the same time. As a result, he was greatly suppressed as soon as they began fighting.

At this moment, Changyang Mingyue peered outside the divine hall. She immediately said, “Let me deal with them.”

Tian Jian who sat on the jade-white seat suddenly opened his eyes. He said, “None of you can go out, or we might not be able to keep them restrained.”

With that, Changyang Mingyue paused. She hesitated before deciding to stay and provide energy to the divine hall to keep the other experts trapped.

Tian Jian gazed at the people around him and said, “I need everyone’s full support so that the divine hall can display even greater might to keep the Returnance experts trapped and giving Tie Ta time to kill the Receival experts. With the death of every Origin realm expert from the World of Forsaken Saints, there’ll be less pressure on the divine hall to keep the others trapped.”

The few Origin realm experts in the supreme divine hall did not hesitate at all. They immediately placed their hands on the jade-white seat. Their power surged out, making the divine hall even more powerful.

The two Returnance experts fighting Tie Ta were trapped very soon. Without them, Tie Ta immediately charged toward the Receival experts.

“Elder, let’s work together and kill him,” suggested a Returnance expert.

“The restraints of the azure streams are even more powerful. We can temporarily break free with our strength, but we’lll greatly exhaust our origin energy, and even if we do break free, we can only dish out a few attacks before we’re trapped again. It’ll be difficult to kill him with just those attacks,” another elder replied with a heavy heart.

Cheng Jingyun coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood. She looked around and weakly said, “Elders, I’m heavily injured. I won’t be of any help if I stay any longer, so I’ll be leaving first.” With that, Cheng Jingyun used a secret technique, burning her essence blood in exchange for great power to break free from the restraints. She did not look back at all as she entered the tunnel, fleeing back to the World of Forsaken Saints.

Cheng Jingyun’s departure was not met with any obstructions at all. However, now that she was gone, the azure stream of light that had been trapping her split into six and spread among the six other Returnance elders. Their facial expressions immediately changed.

At this moment, there was a miserable cry. A Receival expert had died in Tie Ta’s hands. His souls had been wiped out. However, the death of the Receival expert made all the faces of the Returnance experts sink. The stream of light that had been trapping him was now divided into six, which then extended to them.

“This can’t continue. If it does, we’ll probably be dead before we can even waste away the energy of the divine hall,” an elder said with a heavy voice.
