Chapter 6867 Bloody Battle
“They really came! That’s Yan Li’s voice!”
Zhang Gonggong could barely contain his excitement. Abandoning all pretense, he dragged out a chair and sat on it, openly watching the unfolding drama. Because he was a divine son, he could observe from the sidelines as long as he didn’t get involved.
“You killed my family and destroyed my sect! I cannot exist beneath the same heavens as you! I will count to three. If anyone unrelated remains in the city, you’ll have no one to blame but yourself! One!”
Yan Li’s chilling roar echoed as the Golden Crow arrived and halted outside the Soul Refining Sect.
“That’s... the Golden Crow! The legendary Sun Divine Bird!”
“That’s the Flame God Sect’s divine daughter Chi Yutong, and the Spirit Heart Sect’s divine daughter Xin Yu! The black-robed fellow... is he the newcomer called Long Chen?”
Long Chen, Chi Yutong, and Xin Yu get off from the Golden Crow, leaving the battlefield for Yan Li.
“I heard that Long Chen looks down on everyone. He’s incredibly arrogant.”
“He supposedly has a very good relationship with Domain Lord Zheng Wenlong. He's even friends with the Calligraphy Sect’s top genius, Li Chenggang. His status justifies his arrogance.”
“I heard that, like Li Chenggang, he comes from the nine heavens. Unfortunately, we don’t get much news from there. I wonder who he was there?”
“Tch, the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture is the only pure land left in the nine heavens and ten lands. This is where the world’s karmic luck gathers. Only this place can produce real experts. Country bumpkins like him simply haven’t encountered real experts,” sneered one person.
Clearly, these native experts all felt superior to experts from the outside world.
“Two!”
Yan Li counted immediately after one breath, surprising everyone. Wasn’t that too quick? Was he really not planning to give the other side any time to respond?
“Little brat, you’re incredibly naive. Your Blazing Soul Gate was destroyed because its destiny has come to an end. Instead of looking for the real reason yourself, you blame others. Today, you have sealed your fate!”
An arrogant voice rang out from within the Soul Refining Sect. Then, an elder appeared outside the main gates.
Chi Yutong’s expression darkened. That elder was Chi Quan, the Flame God Sect’s chief traitor. Now, he was dressed in the robes of the Deep Earth Sect. Judging by the markings, his rank within the Deep Earth Sect appeared to be quite high.
Chi Quan also noticed Chi Yutong and arrogantly declared, “I am Chi Quan, the vice sect master of the Deep Earth Sect. Today, I am here to protect the Soul Refining Sect on the sect master’s orders. Anyone who tries to harm the Soul Refining Sect is provoking the wrath of my Deep Earth Sect. As for our enemies, hehe... you should know what awaits them.”
Chi Quan was incredibly arrogant now. Behind him stood a group of the Flame God Sect’s former experts, and they didn’t hide from Chi Yutong at all. Chi Yutong was blazing with fury.
There was truly no saving Chi Quan. He was being used by others without even realizing it. The Deep Earth Sect gave him a hollow title and then sent him to risk his life for others.
The Flame God Sect had respected and trusted him, only to be betrayed. Thinking ot this, Chi Yutong had the urge to kill him herself.
Chi Quan sneered, “Youngster from the Blazing Soul Gate, you should scram. There are thirty-six sects gathered here today...”
“Three!”
At that moment, Yan Li finished his count.
He changed his hand seals and unleashed all the energy he had gathered on the way here. The next moment, the Fusang Tree appeared behind him, and the Golden Crow fired a beam of divine light from its mouth.
As Yan Li’s aura erupted, the Soul Refining Sect’s barrier sensed the change in energy and automatically activated.
A grand barrier served as the foundation of any sect. It would adjust its defensive prowess based on the opponent’s power.
When the red-blood barrier appeared, the Soul Refining Sect’s experts were shocked. This was their strongest barrier, something capable of blocking the attack of a double manifestation Divine Sovereign.
However, the energy needed to maintain this barrier was also at a different level. It would only take a few breaths for the barrier to exhaust all its energy. Since the Soul Refining Sect’s grand formation was built, the red barrier had never been activated.
BOOM!
An explosive sound rang out.
The barrier, said to be capable of blocking the attack of a double manifestation Divine Sovereign, was instantly pierced through.
“What?!”
Terrified screams rang out.
The golden light erupted at the heart of the Soul Refining Sect. Countless buildings turned to lava, and the people inside died instantly.
Golden ripples spread outward, transforming everything they touched into a blazing sea of flames. The entire Soul Refining Sect was engulfed in fire.
Perhaps this was their retribution. Normally, when a grand barrier was pierced, it would shatter completely, causing the attack to scatter in all directions. However, this barrier was neither too strong nor too weak. A hole appeared in it, while the rest remained intact.
In an instant, the Soul Refining Sect transformed into an oven, with overwhelming heat filling every corner.
BOOM!
Finally, the barrier broke apart after a few seconds, along with the entire Soul Refining Sect.
The scorching heat left the spectators stunned. No one expected this single attack to wipe out the Soul Refining Sect. They could no longer sense the aura of anyone below the Sovereign Lord realm inside. In other words, everyone below this realm was dead.
“How vicious...” The spectators were stunned by this attack.
Long Chen looked at the result and shook his head.
He explained, “This formation was designed for trapping, not defending. It’s not meant for stopping an enemy. It’s clearly a prison. If we had known this, Yan Li wouldn’t have needed to start accumulating energy on the way.”
Chi Yutong and Xin Yu stared at Long Chen oddly when he said this.
Didn’t this imply that the grand formation was designed to be easily broken? Had the Soul Refining Sect offended the formation masters who created it? Or perhaps they had coerced the formation masters into constructing it, and this was their retaliation?
“You little ingrate, how dare you destroy my Soul Refining Sect?! I’ll make you suffer for an eternity!”
A hoarse scream echoed as Huang Yizhou appeared in the sky, rushing directly toward Yan Li.
