Chapter 306 - Deadly Miasma (1/2)
Editor: Elitecoder
“What do we do, brother?” The frightened Long Kui turned to Long Xingyun.
Long Xingyun wasn’t fairing any better, his eyes darting everywhere. Noticing the 36 pylons, his face grew grave, “If we want to survive we have to first get out of the array. The 36 lights are tied together, making it impossible to break the array from the inside. We need to find the exit if we want to escape!”
Long Kui and the rest were even more restless. Looking at the flood of enemies charging, their faces were ashen.
How were they supposed to do that when that army would make sure to keep them trapped here even tighter than the array?
The array’s only use was to rob them of their chance to escape. It made even Profound Heaven expert’s flying impossible, to the extent that even Six Dragons and One Phoenix were incapable of doing it.
Everyone hung their heads in despair, having lost their will to fight.
“Humph, it’s just finding an exit. Is that so hard? We’ll just have to try them one by one!” A snort came just as a black figure flashed into the enemy’s ranks.
Golden light blossomed as it flew in every direction. Wherever it landed, explosions resounded, paving the ground with hundreds of corpses. The blood flew into the air, only to fall right back down, onto the scattered limbs.
They saw how the twisted smiles of the enemy had now turned into ones of horror at the sight of this man.
Sword Marquise Abode’s eldest young master, martial fanatic Xie Tianshang!
Xie Tianshang rested his sword, but his cold eyes glinted like daggers. Any that met his gaze would feel as if stabbed by a thousand swords.
His dauntless figure stood unchallenged like an unparalleled sword. The enemy was deterred, in fear of what might happen if they got even an inch closer.
Long Xingyun blinked, then turned ecstatic, “Brother Xie lives up to be a true martial fanatic. How dependable!”
“But of course. My brother has been obsessed with martial arts since young, training day in day out without a rest. If not for those two monsters, my brother would’ve been invincible!” Xie Tianyang spoke with pride.
Everyone else sighed inside.
[Xie Tianshang is the number one swordsman in Tianyu. Not even Six Dragons and One Phoenix can match his talent.]
Just that Heaven-shaking Dragon Lord upstaged him, followed closely by that bad apple Zhuo Fan, sealing any chance at showcasing his might.
With those two out of the picture, the world would finally bear witness to the true might of this martial fanatic!
Rolling his eyes, Long Xingyun roared, “Brother Xie, clear a path. We’re right behind you!”
Grinning, Xie Tianyang said, “Brother Long is so shrewd in bringing up the rear. When my brother pushes through the array and is too exhausted to carry on, you could just run off!”
“Ha-ha-ha, brother Tianyang, no need to split hairs. We are allies here. You help me now, and I’ll help you later. We will both benefit!” Long Xingyun pointed at Xie Tianshang, “Moreover, don’t you find your brother quite willing to be made use of?”
Sure enough, Xie Tianshang’s eyes lit up at this proposal, as if he was just waiting for it, “Alright!”
Every swing of the sword sent golden light everywhere. Flowing Space’s Nine Forms were performed to the full extent of their splendor, at the expense of crushed enemies and strewn corpses. It only took seconds for the casualties to reach a thousand.
As the surroundings glowed bloody, now so too did the earth!
Xie Tianyang shook his head as his brother was hell bent on mowing through the enemy like they were training dummies.
[Sigh, the martial fanatic side of my brother is once again rearing its head. Nothing short of exhaustion or defeat could ever stop his blade now.]
The others found Sword Marquise Abode’s eldest young master’s bursting courage contagious. It reached a point where some even wanted to join the man in his charge.
But taking a closer look, one saw a bloodshot Xie Tianshang, slaughtering every which way with a manic grin on his face.
That threw a bucket of cold water on their enthusiasm. [He’ll kill us just the same!]
Long Xingyun rubbed his chin, nodding at the crazed figure. He guessed there was no pressure in finding the exit. At least with Xie Tianshang on a killing spree, the enemy would swiftly be disposed off.
At the very least, sans Zhuo Fan and Huangpu Qingtian, Xie Tianshang had become the de-facto God of War, killing gods, demons, buddha and what not.
“Xie Tianshang, don’t be so smug. Face me for a change!” A shout revealed a black figure charging Xie Tianshang.
Xie Tianshang was overjoyed, “Ha-ha-ha, Yan Bangui, you’re just in time. I grow tired of killing ants. Now I can finally hone my sword on you.”
