C257 latent aid
"The squad from the Heaven Shaking Sect has gone crazy! They are simply courting death!"
This thought flashed through Senior Martial Brother Fan's heart, but the magic tool in his hand did not have the slightest bit of hesitation as it went straight for Liu Zhifei's back.
However, Liu Zhifei seemed to have already expected this situation. Facing the siege of three or four Sirius Sect cultivators, including Senior Martial Brother Fan, he actually unleashed all of his potential into the battle, forcefully breaking through the encirclement that was about to form around the four of them, and then joining forces with the other Sirius Sect cultivators who were also being attacked. The two of them then took advantage of the lack of reaction from the surrounding Sirius Sect cultivators to break through the encirclement and regroup with Luo Bingkun.
After the three of them had met, although the three of them had attracted at least seven members of the Celestial Wolf Sect to surround them, their tacit cooperation allowed the three of them to always be able to escape from the encirclement. The three of them also continued to fight with everyone, and very soon, they met with their teammates, including Sha Zhi Hong.
At this time, Liu Zhifei and the others were finally caught up in a tight encirclement between two small teams, and their opponents could no longer give them a chance to break out. At this time, Liu Zhifei and the others were finally caught up in a tight encirclement between two small teams, and their opponents could no longer give them a chance to break out.
Senior Martial Brother Fan's feeling became increasingly bad. Liu Zhifei was completely putting his life on the line, and the Spiritual Energy within his body was like a splash of water. How long could he last in this state?
However, what made Senior Martial Brother Fan even more worried was that Liu Zhifei's desperate stance did not seem like he was saving a person, nor did it seem like he was trying to break out of the encirclement. Instead, he looked like he was bringing his own underlings into a trap.
After the two squads were successfully surrounded, the Heaven Shaking Sect squadron looked like a turtle in a jar, yet it was still battling like a wild beast. Senior Martial Brother Fan seemed to have realized something and was about to look around.
However, at this moment, a loud shout was suddenly heard from the encirclement. "What are we waiting for? Attack! Let them all stay here!"
Liu Zhifei's loud shout made Senior Brother Ling Fan's heart jump. In the blink of an eye, two small groups of cultivators appeared two miles away on both sides of the mountain range. However, they attacked from the left and right.
Crap, I fell for his trick!
Just as the fifth and seventh squads appeared from behind the mountain, not only did Senior Martial Brother Fan, but almost all of the cultivators of the two squads were in a panic. They had actually managed to reduce the pressure on the third squads.
However, Liu Zhifei and the others didn't use this as a respite and instead rushed forward even more fiercely. They tried their best to tangle with the Heavenly Wolf Sect and Opening Spirit Sect cultivators, not giving the two small groups of cultivators a chance to hesitate or to leave.
A kilometer or two was just a sip of tea for a Martial Disciple. The short amount of time left Senior Martial Brother Fan and the other Spirit Opening Sect's inner sect disciple with no time to organize an internal force to stop them. Meanwhile, the three small groups of the Heaven Shaking Sect had already formed a pincer attack from the outside.
With a cruel grin on his face, he commanded his magic tools to form seven whirlwinds and explode in the middle of the formation. In the blink of an eye, the area within a hundred feet radius was covered in sand, rocks, and the sky turned dark, so the Spirit Opening Sect cultivators could not care less and could only try their best to protect themselves.
However, by the time the sandstorm dispersed, they discovered that five or six of them had already been split apart, and the cultivators of the fifth squad had already infiltrated them and formed a siege.
The team from the Spirit Opening Sect was trying to help, but they were all blocked by Tang Wulin. He could only watch helplessly as his teammates were besieged by their opponents.
On the other side, Senior Martial Brother Fan from the Heavenly Wolf School also knew that the situation on their side was extremely bad. Without caring about his previous private thoughts, he took the initiative to face off against Ji Chenglin from the seventh squad, attempting to stall most of the people in the seventh squad by himself.
However, just as Ji Chenglin was about to welcome Senior Martial Brother Fan, a loud shout suddenly came from the side, "He is mine!"
Ji Chenglin had an unfathomable smile on his face. Seeing that Senior Martial Brother Fan had already taken the initiative to attack him, he suddenly turned around and dodged.
The corners of Senior Martial Brother Fan's eyes twitched as he saw a ray of light carrying a violent gust of wind rush over. Halfway there, it collided with his magic tool with a loud bang.
Senior Martial Brother Fan's heart jumped. When he raised his head to look, he saw that Liu Zhifei had already broken out of the encirclement and was flying towards him. Even though he appeared to be in an extremely sorry state after facing the two small teams that were attacking him, his aura was still extremely strong.
And with Liu Zhifei holding them back, Ji Chenglin immediately gathered the cultivators of the 7th Squad to join hands with the people of the 3rd Squad to surround and attack. Without any other choice, Senior Martial Brother Fan had no choice but to follow Liu Zhifei's desperate stance and use his flying magic tool to attack Ji Chenglin, who was about to break away from the battle.
Such a sneak attack naturally wouldn't work, but Senior Martial Brother Fan's intention was only to keep Ji Chenglin at bay, so as to buy time for the cultivators on his side who were stuck in a passive situation.
As long as he could stall the three late stage Martial Disciples temporarily, he would be able to minimize his losses even if he had to suffer some losses during this battle when facing the combined attacks of the other cultivators.
When Senior Martial Brother Fan thought of this he couldn't help but curse in his heart. Originally he was not very active in rescuing the Spirit Opening Sect's stronghold, but now he had no choice but to go all out and fight them alone.
However, the situation progressed far beyond Senior Martial Brother Fan's expectations. Regardless of whether it was Senior Martial Brother Fan or the late Martial Disciples of the Opening Spirit Sect, they were both confident that they would be able to break out of this encirclement.
However, just as the two squads of cultivators were preparing to break through the encirclement from the three squads of Heaven Shaking Sect, a streak of light suddenly flashed across the mountain range above the pass.
Just when most of the cultivators in the battle had yet to react, one of them who had rushed to the front and was standing in front of two of the Seventh Squad members who were at the same level as him, was stunned. The body of the second level Martial Disciple of the Heavenly Wolf Tribe, which was obstructing them, was suddenly struck by a gush of blood that seeped out of his chest.
Just as that person fell onto the ground, a sharp howl rang out from far behind him as he neared. It was the sound of his killing technique that was actually faster than the speed of the sound.
"Thief, how dare you!"1
Although no one else had noticed the sudden attack earlier, the five late stage Martial Disciples' spiritual senses had already noticed where the assailant was.
On top of the Sunset Mountains Pass, a teenage boy appeared out of nowhere with a longbow in his hand. The previous arrow was shot by the teenager with a long bow; he had killed a cultivator from the Heavenly Wolf Sect in one shot.
Although the power of the Spiritual Light Arrow was not as great as that of the magical equipment, much less as the flying magic tool, the speed at which it was released was astonishing. Moreover, its range had far surpassed the range of the cultivator's flying magic tool!
The ones who were shocked were not only Senior Fan and a group of Spirit Opening Sect cultivators, but also Liu Zhifei and a few other Heaven Shaking Sect cultivators, especially those who were familiar with Yang Junshan like Luo Bingkun, Ning Fei, and Mu Jie. They knew that Yang Junshan had a low grade Mountain Lord Seal, but since when did this kid have a second magic item, and it was also a magic item that very few cultivators were willing to use?
One had to know that even Liu Zhifei, Ji Chenglin, and the other late stage Martial Disciples of the Heaven Shaking Sect only had a single magic tool in their hands. They would rather collect a large amount of cultivation resources to raise their magic tools to mid and high quality than to forge a second magic tool, not to mention a magic tool like the Snake-Necked Bow that could be called a magical weapon.
Although they were envious, their morale was still boosted. After all, with Yang Junshan, a threat that no one else could reach, it was difficult for the two sects to focus all of their attention on breaking through the encirclement. Who knew that they would not be shot from behind during an emergency?
Very soon, after Yang Junshan's first shot, when the two cultivators from the Heavenly Wolf Sect and the Spirit Opening Sect joined hands to break through, because of the lack of tacit understanding, the Spirit Opening Sect's cultivators bravely advanced. The Heavenly Wolf Sect cultivators, on the other hand, were afraid because of Yang Junshan's deterrence, and very soon, they put their comrades in danger, dying under the combined attack of two members of the Seventh Squad, Luo Bingkun and the other two.
Without the protection of his companions, the Sirius Sect cultivator was quickly surrounded by other cultivators and was eventually taken advantage of by the Fifth Squad.
However, three cultivators had just fallen from the enemy's encirclement, causing the hearts of both senior brother Fan and Zheng Qingyuan to sink. Their original plan to bring their subordinates to retreat as quickly as possible was immediately thrown away. They could not continue like this and had to make a decision to abandon a portion of the group.
The two cultivators that were separated seemed to have reached a mutual understanding as Senior Martial Brother Fan desperately tried to keep Liu Zhifei and Ji Chenglin at bay while Zheng Qingyuan suddenly gave up on his attempt to kill his opponent and attempted to open a gap.
Swoosh!
A sharp whistling sound could be heard from far away, but Zheng Qingyuan's expression changed. He didn't even use the magical equipment in his hands. He only formed two finger seals and destroyed Yang Junshan's Light Arrow.
However, Yang Junshan's original intention was not to kill a Martial Disciple cultivator. It was enough as long as he could stall him in time.
