Chapter 1398: No Mercy

After Li Yan’s foot brushed past the other party’s body, he was already at the petite female cultivator’s side and rear. Using this foot as a pivot, he spun his body, and at the same time, his other foot lifted, the heel swinging back fiercely in a sweep and a hook.

The four talismans revolved around the female cultivator’s body, creating a circle of emerald green light that protected her entire body.

But she had not adopted a completely defensive posture; instead, she was counter-attacking Li Yan.

At this moment, her head was exposed. This way, she could use her eyes to assist in close combat. Otherwise, she could only observe the situation outside the emerald green light through her Divine Sense.

For a cultivator in close combat, with such a rapid exchange, it might cost them their life in an instant. Of course, they would have all six senses open.

At this time, under Li Yan’s extreme attack speed, his change of attack had already begun, but his figure had not yet appeared behind the petite female cultivator. The afterimage in front still maintained the posture of a charging kick.

The petite female cultivator and the other three also attacked at the same time. Just as the petite female cultivator’s twin knives slashed down and she felt something was wrong, an endless fear suddenly welled up from the bottom of her heart.

She had never expected that the other party, when his attack had already lost its momentum and new strength had not yet been generated, could still increase his speed and change his moves.

But these were just her instinctive feelings of helplessness and fear in the face of death. She had no time to think of anything else, let alone make a counter-attack.

Half of her pretty face, as pink as a spring flower in March, was viciously swept by Li Yan’s heel. The moment it hit, Li Yan’s knee once again erupted with power, pulling his lower leg back in a sharp hook and pull.

When the petite female cultivator’s pretty face was hit by this powerful force, although she still had her protective light shield, under such a fierce kick from Li Yan, her own defense as a Nascent Soul cultivator was already of little use.

If it were outside, Li Yan would not be afraid of these Nascent Soul cultivators. If he couldn’t beat them, he had many ways to escape. But here, the other side had a large number of people. If the fight dragged on, it would cause other complications.

And he was also afraid that these Nascent Soul cultivators had rare magical treasures like Jia Fugui’s. Then he would be in for a bitter fight.

But as long as he seized the initiative, it was almost difficult for a Nascent Soul-level cultivator to last a few rounds against him.

The moment the petite female cultivator was hit, the spiritual energy light shield on her body instantly burst with a dazzling light. Almost at the same time, countless crystal-clear starlight fragments turned into a shower of flying stars and scattered out.

And then, amidst this burst of light, a huge heel smashed heavily onto that pretty face.

So, as the petite female cultivator held her knives, her head was first kicked to one side, and her pretty face was also instantly deformed.

Then, before any broken pieces could be kicked out of her mouth, Li Yan’s heel fiercely hooked inward again, exerting force a second time. The petite female cultivator didn’t even have time to scream.

“Boom!”

Her entire head exploded like a watermelon, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

“Bang! Bang! Chi!”

Almost at the same time as this cloud of blood mist bloomed like a brilliant firework, the attacks of the other three Nascent Soul cultivators also arrived like shadows.

With a muffled sound, a gray stone and a small, cold battle-axe hit at the same time!

But they did not hit Li Yan, but passed through his afterimage and both hit the circle of emerald green light curtain outside the petite female cultivator’s body.

The two magical treasures were extremely powerful, and they directly hit the circle of green curtain, causing two bursts of dazzling light and a strong sense of instability.

But in the end, they still held on and did not immediately blow up the female cultivator’s body. It could be seen that the defense of these four talismans was also very strong.

And the position the golden demonic mouse attacked was the back of Li Yan’s head.

Because Li Yan’s body was much taller than the petite female cultivator’s, the golden demonic mouse passed through the afterimage of the back of Li Yan’s head.

Then it passed over the petite female cultivator’s head and also shot out from the cloud of blood mist that had erupted from above, flying into the distance, and bit into empty air.

The exchange between the two sides was extremely fast, the whole process only taking a little more than a breath of time.

On the other side, the six cultivators had only just taken flight, and at the same time, several streaks of brilliant light suddenly attacked from the room behind them.

“You attacked this old man just now, did you have a good time?”

At the same time, an angry voice was mixed in.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

The figures of the six who had just taken flight were all attacked, without exception.

They had no choice but to stop and immediately turn around to block the attack from behind. With the six of them attacking, the attack was instantly blocked.

“Hmm? The attack strength is uneven. There should only be two of them in the room. Two of you stay to block them, the other four go over.”

Among the six, a middle-aged cultivator waved a copper Buddha palm in his hand and blocked a bracelet.

At the same time, their Divine Senses had already sensed from the six flying magical treasures that there was a rather large gap in their power.

This was not a problem with the power of the magical treasures themselves, but was caused by the other party, possibly due to their small number, simultaneously attacking so many cultivators of the same rank.

At this time, the magical power infused into the magical treasures was either evenly distributed, or more magical power was injected into a few of the magical treasures to enhance their power.

And the number of people here could already be easily calculated. Apart from the one on the deck, there were only two others still in hiding.

Inside the room, Jia Fugui looked at Donglin Tingyue. The other party’s cultivation was only at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm, while among the six outside, there were three at the Late-stage and three at the Mid-stage.

Donglin Tingyue simultaneously controlled three magical treasures to attack three people, which seemed not so easy.

“Let’s go out. This way, my spirit beast can also hold back one person!”

A sharp glint quickly flashed in Donglin Tingyue’s eyes, and she gritted her silver teeth.

“This…”

Jia Fugui hesitated upon hearing this. His original intention was to use the defensive restrictions here to hold them off.

The six people outside were in a hurry to leave. He estimated that by attacking these people under the cover of the defense, he could hold back three to four of them. But once they went out, they would be truly facing six Nascent Soul cultivators.

Under such circumstances, Jia Fugui was a little hesitant. He had many magical treasures, but his magical power was limited.

The more magical treasures he controlled, the faster he would consume it. It might be that in a few breaths, his magical power would be exhausted. At that time, he wouldn’t even have time to swallow a pill to recover his magical power. He felt it was better to hold them off here.

And at this moment, all the cultivators, both inside and outside the room, simultaneously looked up towards the deck.

In just that short moment, another cloud of blood mist had erupted there. That person had not even been able to let out a scream.

“Kill!”

In the next instant, Jia Fugui had already rushed out. Li Yan had already gone this far. He certainly couldn’t cower inside anymore. They had to fight with all their might, at least to take one down with them.

Otherwise, once the Spirit Transformation cultivator on the second level appeared, they would have died for nothing.

He had to rush out and hold back as many people as possible. But he felt that holding back six people at the same time should be unrealistic, but by fighting with his life on the line, he would definitely be able to hold back more people.

Everyone here had seen Li Yan’s ferocity. But no matter how ferocious he was, he was still a Nascent Soul cultivator. Using a hit-and-run tactic was the most reasonable. He couldn’t let himself be surrounded.

And what he and Donglin Tingyue had to do was to reduce Li Yan’s pressure as much as possible. Of course, they could not hesitate any longer.

Donglin Tingyue also rushed out at the same time, and the Rouge Bird on her shoulder, at her signal, immediately rushed towards a Nascent Soul cultivator.

In an instant, the great battle started again. Both sides attacked with all their might in an instant, and the fighting was even more explosive this time.

Just now, when Jia Fugui and the other two had attacked for the first time in the room, Li Yan had sensed it, but he had not looked over, his movements still sharp as he attacked.

A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was not afraid of these cultivators. He was confident that if things went wrong, he could just use his “Stealthy Night Art” again to hide himself.

He did not know the methods of the Spirit Transformation cultivator on the second level. Once he hid himself, he should still be able to delay for a while. If the other party had the same methods as the old woman surnamed He, he could even completely delay until he reached the “Great Nothingness Tree” area.

Now, seeing Jia Fugui and the other two rush out without the slightest hesitation after he had killed the petite female cultivator, Li Yan also nodded in his heart.

He then saw that Jia Fugui, with his own strength, had directly held back a Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator and a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Donglin Tingyue and her spirit beast, working together, had not managed to entangle two Nascent Soul cultivators in the end, but had held back a Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. This surprised Li Yan a little. Donglin Tingyue actually had such strength.

Jia Fugui’s natal magical treasure was really an abacus. When he summoned it, the one hundred and five beads collided with each other, making a series of noisy sounds, which made the cultivators opposite him feel dizzy.

If one listened carefully, the sounds were like thousands of people constantly muttering some gibberish.

“…three up three, four up four, five up five,… two down five minus three, three down five minus two…”

The voices were high and low, male and female, constantly forcing their way into the other party’s mind. The protective shield was not very effective against this.

At the same time, the beads seemed to be forged from ancient bronze. Every time they collided, a streak of ancient bronze light would shoot out, covering the sky and the earth, and hitting the two opposite them like a shower of bronze-glowing arrows.

The Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator opposite him was having a very hard time dealing with this kind of attack.

If not for the fact that most of the attacks were blocked by the other Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he might have been disturbed in his sea of consciousness in a single encounter, and with a slow reaction, been pierced into a hornet’s nest.

And on the other side, Donglin Tingyue was holding a white jade flute. Every time she waved it, a row of flashing, seven-colored water bubbles would fly out from the holes of the flute.

The bubbles were extremely sticky. Whether it was the body or a magical treasure, once touched by them, it was extremely difficult to shake them off.

And if these bubbles were not broken in time, these attached bubbles would soon connect into a piece, squeezing the other party inside, making them unable to move, and even squeezing them to death.

And the red Rouge Bird, after flying into the air, spat out a stream of blood-red flames from its mouth. The blood-red flames were not aimed at the enemy, but at the water bubbles surrounding the enemy.

The moment the flames touched the seven-colored water bubbles, instead of being incompatible, the seemingly light water bubbles instantly turned into crimson round beads, as if their weight had increased several times over.

These crimson round beads, with a whistling sound, smashed towards the other party at an even faster speed.

After the seven-colored water bubbles turned into crimson round beads, their stickiness also increased by two or three times. Often, once they stuck to the skin, if one wanted to shake them off again, it might tear off a large piece of skin and flesh.

Obviously, the cooperation between Donglin Tingyue and her spirit beast was already extremely tacit.

In just a short period of time, she had actually forced the Late-stage Nascent Soul burly man from the “Spirit Subduing Manor” to a point where he could not escape.
