And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 390

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The violent explosion forcefully created a vacuum, and the white fog scattered in all directions like fireworks. At the same time, an obscure mark appeared in Gu Xi’s eyes.

“Now!” Gu Xi’s eyes lit up. He knew that this was the core of this formation!

In the next moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst out from his chest, and there was even a low and deep dragon’s roar coming from it.

In the next moment, a golden light pillar shot out abruptly, and a terrifying spiritual power undulation forcefully distorted the space it passed through. It struck the position of the formation’s core with a force that was like a hot knife through butter.

Boom —

!!

Following another deafening explosion, a small crack appeared on the surface of the formation’s core, and then it shattered with a loud bang.

“How is this possible!?” Outside the space, Bo Ye’s eyes were wide open, and he could not help but exclaim.

He hurriedly tried to control the array to remedy the situation, but it was already too late. The fog that filled the entire Hall of Flowing Light was thinning rapidly, and the ground was constantly cracking, the array under his feet was constantly crumbling.

He poured all his spiritual energy into the array formation with all his might, and even his own spiritual energy was already stretched to the limit, but it was still of no use.

When the fog had completely dissipated, and everything in the surroundings could be clearly seen once more, the Bo Ye also understood that the Sect-Protection Formation of the Hall of Flowing Light… was finished!

At the same time, the elders and disciples who were maintaining the operation of the great array all spat out a mouthful of blood, and then their spirits became dispirited. There were even some who directly fell to the ground, their lives unknown!

Bo Ye also looked around and saw the tragic scene. An unprecedented panic surged in his heart. His face was also extremely pale. Although part of the reason was due to the backlash from the formation, most of it came from his heart.

As the Grand Elder of the Hall of Flowing Light, he was personally operating the formation, but it was was broken by a man who looked to be in his early twenties!

This was not only a humiliation to him. If the Hall Master were to find out about this, he might not even be able to keep his life!

On the other side, Gu Xi slowly opened his eyes and discovered that he was once again in the main hall. On the other hand, Qing Zhu had also recovered her senses and her beautiful eyes were slightly dazed.

A moment later, Qing Zhu turned her head to look at Gu Xi and asked, “What’s going on?”

Gu Xi shrugged and smiled proudly, “The formation has been broken.”

Hearing this, Qing Zhu could not help but look surprised.

“You broke it?” she asked suspiciously, as if she did not believe it.

“Who else could it be?” Gu Xi curled his lips and did not intend to explain further. Instead, he turned his gaze to Bo Ye who was not far away. He sneered and continued, “I’ve already said that your Sect-protection Formation is only so-so.”

As soon as these words were said, the many disciples in the main hall, who still did not know what had happened, came to a sudden realization. Immediately after, there was an uproar.

“This fellow actually broke our Sect-protection Formation?!”

“How is this possible?! Didn’t I hear that the grand formation once killed a Great Saint? Could it be that this fellow is even more difficult to deal with than a Great Saint cultivator?”

Exclamations rose and fell one after another. Initially, everyone did not quite believe Gu Xi’s words. However, when they saw the gloomy expression on Bo Ye’s face, the answer quietly appeared in their hearts.

“You are indeed very outstanding… very outstanding…” Bo Ye gritted his teeth as he spoke, but he could no longer utter any vicious words.

He did not order the remaining disciples to attack Gu Xi and Qing Zhu, because all the elders and disciples with some strength had already suffered the backlash from the sect protecting array, now that they had lost their ability to fight. The remaining disciples would only be cannon fodder even if they attacked.

He would not make such a useless sacrifice.

“Then thank you for the praise, Elder.” Gu Xi grinned and looked up into the distant sky. His expression became slightly worried. “I wonder how Little Nine is doing.”

He could feel the increasingly violent battle fluctuations there. It was obvious that the battle between Little Nine and the Hall Master had reached its climax.

Bo Ye and the other disciples of the Hall of Flowing Light also raised their heads. In their hearts, they prayed that their Sect Master would be able to obtain victory. This was because they knew very well that compared to the battle between them and Gu Xi, the battle above would determine the true meaning of victory or defeat.

As long as their Sect Master was able to win, then it would be a matter of him raising a hand to deal with Gu Xi and Qing Zhu. On the other hand, if Little Nine were to obtain victory, then their Hall of Flowing Light would probably be finished today.

For a moment, everyone could not help but hold their breaths, quietly waiting for the result.

The two people above seemed to have sensed something, and the commotion caused by the battle grew larger and larger. Even many of the buildings below were affected and collapsed one after another. Fortunately, the hall that everyone was in was made of special materials, it was not affected too much and there were no problems.

Boom boom boom boom boom —

Not long after, explosions sounded one after another. Two figures quickly appeared in everyone’s field of vision, and they descended at an extremely fast speed.

However, in the blink of an eye, the two figures returned to the main hall one after another.

At this moment, Little Nine’s pretty face was pale, and there was a trace of fresh blood at the corner of her mouth. Her full chest was constantly rising and falling. It was clear that she had suffered some injuries during the battle just now.

Even so, her expression was still incomparably arrogant.

On the other hand, the Hall Master on the opposite side was currently wearing disheveled clothes, and his body was covered with many ferocious wounds. Fresh blood was continuously flowing out from within, and his entire aura was extremely dispirited. It was as if he would fall to the ground and die at any moment.

The atmosphere at the scene sunk into a long period of silence. All the disciples of the Hall of Flowing Light had pale faces, completely unlike their previous appearance.

Although neither side had clearly won or lost, even a fool could tell that their sect leader was at a disadvantage in the battle. Moreover, he was at an extremely disadvantage.

“Who… exactly are you…” The Hall Master looked at Gu Xi and the other two. His voice was a little soft.

He took out an unknown medicinal pill and swallowed it. Only then did his pale face slightly improve. The wounds on his body also gradually formed a scab and stopped bleeding.

“I have said that you will know sooner or later.” Gu Xi parted his mouth into a smile. He immediately took out a medicinal pill and handed it to Little Nine by the side. He asked with concern, “Are you alright?”

“It’s just a small injury.” Little Nine shook her head and took the opportunity to swallow the medicinal pill.
