Chapter 149 - Breaking Through The Encirclement (1/2)

Lang Qingyun?

Zhong Yue didn't have time to process as the pythons, crows, dragons, and phoenix manifested from psyche visualization skills started forming from the flames in the air. All of them were shuttling about within 50 miles around him, each of them was followed by a Qi Practitioner flying behind them, and each of them intent of finding him!

There's no time to lose, if I'm trapped and surrounded here, I'll die even if there's a hundred of me!

The fire behind Zhong Yue roared and suddenly split into two. They then formed a pair of golden wings. The Golden Crow wings flared out, flapping with all his might and a blast as loud as thunderclap rumbled in the air!

"Run!"

He leaped into the air as fast as lightning, casting the art of the Martial Masters, stomping in the air and bolting away, augmenting to his speed to the peak!

"There he is!"

"Brat, he's so fast!"

"So that brat thinks he can escape us? If he manages to escape, then experts like us better go home and drink milk!"

...

The winds were wild, the sky was lit up by the agitated fire, the clarion cries of birds mixed within forceful blow of the winds. A giant monster appeared in the forest below, racing between the mountains so fast that it could have been mistaken as flying. It leaped into the sky, chasing the flying Zhong Yue.

Some experts cast their skills and countless trees shot up and were sent thrusting towards Zhong Yue like loose arrows!

And there were giant vines like pythons shuttling mid-air, lashing towards Zhong Yue!

The sound of swords clanking reverberated in the sky, indicating that the Qi Practitioners are now armed with soul weapons, increasing their speed, getting closer to Zhong Yue!

And there were experts that reached out their hands, grabbed onto the hills and tossed the crumbled mountain rocks over!

More monster race experts gathered within the 50 mile range, all armed with different types of soul weapon and exhibiting different styles of attack. All of them charged towards him like a swarm of bees with the firm determination to kill him!

Apart from that, multicolored luminous wheels started appearing in the sky. As they began spinning rapidly, they started to shoot towards Zhong Yue!

This was the result of the experts in the Awakening level casting the Wu Xing Wheel, Wan Xiang Wheel and Shen Cai Wheel. The Combat Yuan Shen of the Awakening level had high combat strength; once they opened the wheels, their combat strength would experience a quantum leap, with some of them even exceeding their mortal body's strength capacity!

The Combat Yuan Shen emerged, casting the luminous wheels, its speed immediately caught up with Zhong Yue, slowly nearing him!

"You want to kill me? You'll have to try harder than that! Yuan Shen, activate! Ba Ji Slaughtering Array!"

Zhong Yue shouted angrily, his wings fluttered and his speed increased gradually while his Yuan Shen appeared behind him, the hundred and eighty feet tall Yuan Shen extended out its eight arms with the Ba Ji Weapons in their hands, crossing and laying them over one another and formed into the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array. Any small movement would cause the woods that were flying about to be pulverized to dust.

Zhong Yue's Yuan Shen widened his mouth and spat out a blaze of fire. Even the wood chips in the air were instantly set alight, not to mention broken wood. A big explosion blew out in the air, sending out violent wind in all directions, some of the the weaker Qi Practitioner were blown away by the blast!

The airborne Qi Practitioners blown by the hurricane could not stable themselves and retreated unwillingly.

Swoosh—— Soul weapons were aimed across the explosion towards Zhong Yue. Zhong Yue's Yuan Shen extended out the eight arms and cast the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array to its fullest power, the rattling sound of impact were like pearls falling into a bowl, taking down all the attacking soul weapons without a miss.

He had attained the saint city lord's knowledge and comprehensions of the art, enabling him to understand the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array to an even more profound degree. When the slaughtering array was triggered, the eight Ba Ji Weapons criss-crossed over one another, forming a shimmering sword with a length of ten over feet. And as the sword was swung down heavily, the sword rays diverged like a peacock spreading out its tail, blocking the entire wave of soul weapons!

One after another, the Combat Yuan Shen approach with the Wu Xing Wheel, Wan Xiang Wheel, Shen Cai Wheel spinning towards him. Together, they cast an array formation to unleash the potential of their Yuan Shen to the fullest as they struck towards him!

Just as Zhong Yue's Yuan Shen came in contact with one of the Combat Yuan Shen, he was repressed by the Wu Xing Wheel. He mustered all his strength and cast the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array into a saber array before finally managing to ward off the Wu Xing Wheel.

But immediately after, the other Combat Yuan Shen had started its assault. Zhong Yue's Yuan Shen began turning the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array into sword arrays, shield arrays, hammer arrays, hook arrays and whip arrays – undergoing a seemingly infinite number of transformations. He summoned the Ba Ji Slaughtering Array's might to the fullest extent, where it was now very much stronger than when he was battling King Teng.

However, his opponents this time around were also far stronger than King Teng, the Combat Yuan Shen's strengths were astonishing. One by one, they flew fast towards him and battered at him swiftly, soon overpowering his Ba Ji Slaughtering Array!

Moreover, the other Combat Yuan Shen charged forward past the flanks of his Yuan Shen, towards Zhong Yue's true body that was located behind it!

"Great Sun Golden Crow Yuan Shen!"

Zhong Yue released a dreadful whistle, the sun pupil on his Yuan Shen's left eye behind him started brightening up before his Yuan Shen suddenly transformed into the Great Sun Golden Crow which was ten feet tall. The three-taloned Golden Crow spread it wings and took off, its three talons reached for Zhong Yue, and picked him up, effectively evading the attack of the Combat Yuan Shen that soon came crashing towards his previous position!

"Fang Blade, Attack! Sword Silk, Go! "

Zhong Yue yelled, the Fang Blade wrapped with silk behind him flew free, while the five elemental Sword Qi turned into long sword silks, swiftly wrapping around the hilt of the blade. Zhong Yue had not manage to cultivate his psyche into a pool of lightning, therefore, he was unable to soul manipulate his Fang Blade. But now, he had manipulated his sword silks, using them to spur his Fang Blade!

Whoosh———

The Fang Blade slashed as fast as lightning like a flying sword. It beheaded a twenty feet Combat Yuan Shen with a succinct sound before sweeping across to gut another Combat Yuan Shen on its right!
