Chapter 1399: Not Even Leaving the Corpse

In the midst of the burly man’s low roar, the two sides had actually reached a stalemate. In this way, just by holding back two Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, a lot of pressure was taken off Li Yan.

But even so, Li Yan still had to face the attacks of six people at the same time.

But this was already the limit for Jia Fugui and the other two. Another reason was that they had been injured in the fight with a Spirit Transformation cultivator before, which had already reduced their own strength.

The cultivators fighting here were all trying their best to avoid large-scale techniques. The entire body of the skiff was only five hundred zhang long. A single random attack from any Nascent Soul cultivator could cover the entire body of the skiff.

Therefore, with so many people fighting, it was very easy to cause accidental injuries. Everyone basically condensed their techniques and controlled them within a small area to fight, and they could not fully exert their true strength.

In this way, fighting here would be more advantageous for cultivators who were good at close combat.

Li Yan just swept his Divine Sense over that side, but his own dodging and attacking did not stop. Now, on his side, apart from one cultivator who had left and had already turned into the staircase at the bow of the skiff, there were still three people left.

At the same time, three of the six people who were originally attacking Jia Fugui and the other two had also abandoned them and had quickly arrived near him.

They had all seen Li Yan’s ferocity. Even with four people surrounding him, the petite female cultivator from the “Heavenly Mountain Garden” had already been on guard, but she was still no match for his single attack.

The cultivation level displayed by this green-robed youth was too different from his physical strength. At this moment, they had already guessed Li Yan’s true situation. He should be a powerful body cultivator who was infinitely close to the Spirit Transformation realm.

Otherwise, even if the old woman surnamed He had been caught off guard in a sneak attack, she should have been able to defend against his charge.

The three “Spirit Subduing Manor” cultivators facing Li Yan, seeing him kill people one after another, even though they were already afraid in their hearts, they all understood. At this time, they could only fight to the death with the other party, otherwise they would die even faster.

They could naturally feel the cold killing intent emanating from Li Yan. He was here to take their lives.

And the cultivators from the “Heavenly Mountain Garden” had more thoughts in their minds. Although their side had lost the old woman surnamed He, their own Elder Yuan was still here.

As long as Elder Yuan appeared, the three of them, who had already been exposed, would surely die.

They also saw that someone from their side had gone up to inform Elder Yuan just now. Although the three of them were fighting desperately, no matter how desperately they attacked, as long as they could hold them off for a moment longer, everything would be settled.

The moment he had kicked the petite female cultivator’s head to a pulp, Li Yan had also seen the choice of Jia Fugui and the other two in his divided Divine Sense.

All of this had happened at the same time for both sides. And Li Yan’s body was still spinning rapidly. He had already quickly struck with his backhand, and another palm strike landed on the back of the headless corpse.

The several talismans on the corpse once again erupted with a brilliant light, but after losing the support of magical power, the corpse’s feet were already rootless.

“Bang!”

The corpse was sent flying by Li Yan’s palm strike, turning into a straight line, like a meteor streaking across the sky, and instantly shot outside the blue defensive shield of the skiff.

The pitiful petite female cultivator from the “Heavenly Mountain Garden,” although her physical body was destroyed after she made a mistake in her reaction due to Li Yan’s attack speed being too fast.

But with her reaction, her Nascent Soul could have actually escaped immediately. But unfortunately, at that time, she was immediately hit by the gray stone and the small, cold battle-axe.

Although the activated talisman defense did not directly pierce or blow up her body, the two Nascent Soul cultivators’ attacks, with almost eighty percent of their magical power, were extremely powerful.

Even if her defensive talismans were stronger, the Nascent Soul figure in her Dantian was also shaken to the point of dizziness. How could she have had time to cast an instantaneous movement to escape?

And just because of this delay, her physical body was sent flying by Li Yan’s thunderous blow, directly out of the giant skiff.

“You…”

“Damn it, this person is too vicious!”

“Kill this shameless thief!”

The three Nascent Soul cultivators nearby, upon seeing this unforeseen scene, couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts. At the same time, they were already gritting their teeth.

The cultivator from the “Blood Lantern Sect” opposite them was so insidious that it was outrageous. He actually treated the outside of the skiff as a graveyard!

No matter if the other party was strong or weak, once he seized an opportunity, he would send them all outside, one by one, to erect a tombstone for each of them.

They had seen too much bloodshed and cruelty, but never once had they been so shocked as today. The green-robed youth had almost utilized the environment to the extreme.

Being knocked back was a normal thing in the past, but today, just a single slip-up meant a death from which one could not die again.

But they had no good way to deal with it. Li Yan’s physical strength was beyond their imagination.

Especially this person’s assassination methods, it was as if he could use them at will, as if he had used them countless times. They were so skilled and natural.

And after Li Yan had sent another person flying from the skiff with a palm strike, he also used that force to retreat at high speed.

“They are trapped beasts and will not give up. This person’s name is Li Yan. Don’t give him another chance to attack alone, otherwise, the next unlucky one will be who knows who!”

Just as fear had risen in the hearts of these three cultivators, the other three from Jia Fugui’s side had already flown over. One of the youths shouted loudly and had already caught up with Li Yan at the same time.

Among these people, there were many who recognized Li Yan. Although Li Yan was low-key, this was the competition for the “Great Nothingness Fruit” before. Every team had people studying their opponents.

The other few, upon hearing this, all felt that the youth had made a good point and forcefully suppressed the fear of the demon in front of them.

The six of them scattered in an instant. Although the space on the deck was not small, for a Nascent Soul cultivator, it was just a matter of a tap of the toe. They could get from the bow to the stern in an instant.

As the six scattered, they had already sealed Li Yan in a semi-encirclement. The distance between them was only thirteen or fourteen zhang. This distance was extremely dangerous even for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

And Li Yan, who was retreating, had also reached the edge of the railing of the skiff.

“Knock him out of the skiff!”

A green long spear in one of the cultivator’s hands, without the slightest hesitation, had already pointed at Li Yan’s chest, a ferocious look also appearing in his eyes.

The others, one by one, also had the light of their hand seals and magical treasures flashing rapidly. They also had a fierce look in their eyes as they looked at the semi-encircled Li Yan.

“Li Yan, you’ll soon know the taste of the ‘Bone-Melting Wind’!”

“Go to hell!”

Several fierce shouts sounded at the same time, and the magical power on everyone’s body instantly surged like a tide. No matter how strong the other party was, in this narrow space, by using magical power to prevent the other party from getting close.

With so many people working together to bombard him, as long as the other party couldn’t get close, he wouldn’t be able to exert the combat strength of a body cultivator. He would also taste fear and death.

And all of this was the effect brought about by Li Yan’s attack before, plus the information they had obtained, which stated that Li Yan was a body refining cultivator.

However, while they were attacking, they were also wary of the other party. They had experienced the other party’s insidiousness. They were afraid that a careless mistake would lead to them being taken out of the skiff, which would be bad.

“Be careful of that person’s magical treasure. It can affect the divine soul and the surrounding spiritual energy!”

Someone sent a voice transmission to the three Nascent Soul cultivators who had just surrounded them. Although they had not been attacked by Li Yan before, they had also felt the attack of the three magical treasures and the abnormal phenomenon that had appeared in their Divine Senses.

Therefore, afraid that the three who had just come over would not know and would make a mistake again, they immediately sent a voice transmission to remind them.

On the other side, Donglin Tingyue’s pretty face, exposed on half of her silver mask, changed. With a tap of her toe, she wanted to rush behind the six people.

“Hmph, you stay here!”

The Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator opposite her, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but let out a cold snort. The other party had entangled him just now, and now she was thinking of going over to save someone. How could there be such a good thing?

Although he was surrounded by a circle of red round beads, he was not afraid.

These red round beads were just a bit troublesome. He estimated that in another eight breaths, he would be able to shatter these things.

As he snorted coldly, he pointed with a single hand, and a bolt of lightning, with a crackling sound, shot out from above his head.

The next moment, a flash of lightning streaked across and struck towards Donglin Tingyue, who was about to leave.

He was a thunder-attribute cultivator, and his attack power was extremely formidable.

Donglin Tingyue, relying on the jade flute magical treasure in her hand, plus the assistance of the Rouge Bird with its special innate divine ability, had fought against a Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator before. Although she was no match, she still had a certain degree of confidence in surviving.

But after facing this thunder-attribute cultivator, although she had also managed to hold him off, in just a few breaths, thirty percent of her red round beads had already been shattered by his lightning.

Donglin Tingyue, who was about to fly up, her pretty face changed. Her body quickly retreated to one side, and a bolt of lightning, with a “kacha” sound, struck the spot where she had been.

It directly left a black mark on the deck. If this giant skiff hadn’t been specially refined, it might have been split in two by this single blow.

Almost at the same time as Donglin Tingyue took to the air, Jia Fugui also flicked his hand, and six magical treasures shot directly towards the distance, their target being the six people who were besieging Li Yan.

He didn’t expect these magical treasures to be able to kill the other party, but he had to force the other party to turn around and defend, to create an opportunity for Li Yan to break through the encirclement.

It had to be said that his reaction and judgment were both fast and accurate. But just as he summoned his magical treasures, the two Nascent Soul cultivators opposite him also waved their sleeves, and seven or eight magical treasures also flew out, directly intercepting the six magical treasures.

Everyone here was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Who didn’t have several powerful magical treasures on them?

Although Jia Fugui had many magical treasures, he also had to be able to control so many at the same time to pose a certain threat to others.

His current state, his combat strength was already much worse than before. The combat strength he could exert was also limited to a certain range.

In this way, the two of them were blocked by three Nascent Soul cultivators, and their plan to assist Li Yan was instantly shattered.

The exchange between the two sides was as fast as lightning, and life and death could be decided in an instant. Donglin Tingyue and Jia Fugui’s hearts sank to the bottom.

They had not expected that Li Yan, who had seemed to have the upper hand just a moment ago, would be blocked by others in the next moment. The situation had been completely reversed.

If Li Yan died, the six people who had been freed would turn back, and the two of them would also die even faster.

“If we die, we die. But you’ll have to die with us!”

Donglin Tingyue’s beautiful eyes became incomparably sharp. And in the instant their magical treasures were intercepted, another change occurred. The six people who were besieging Li Yan suddenly cried out in alarm one by one.

“What’s going on…”

“His… his immortal art…”

“Quickly retreat!”

“This is a trap…”
