It was like a run-down house leaking all over whenever it started to storm. Another place would start to leak as soon as you plugged a leak in a different area.
Zhou Yi leapt here and there, but couldn’t prevent his disciples being slain.
“Ah!!”
Zhou Yi roared furiously as his eyes became bloodshot, and his sword danced in his hand, drawing out the clouds and the wind. The rainbow light from his sword scattered through the skies, like fairies scattering blossoms.
This scattered sword aura landed on the formation like it was raining flowers, but had the effect of a stone sinking into the ocean, not harming any of the Goldwing Swordbirds in the slightest.
A resigned feeling of despair rose up in Zhou Yi’s heart at this moment.
“Screwed, I’m really screwed this time!” He was beyond regretful. Why had he involved himself in this mess? Why had he provoked Jiang Chen?
Someone whom even his honored master, Iron Can, could do nothing to—had he completely lost his mind by provoking Jiang Chen?
They were unwilling to accept things at first, and felt that their honored master had come off short simply because Jiang Chen enjoyed Ye Chonglou’s protection.
But now, Zhou Yi finally understood that it was actually because of Jiang Chen having Ye Chonglou’s protection that made everyone make severe errors in their judgment and underestimate Jiang Chen!
“This can’t continue, I have to break through this formation. Otherwise, even I will find my strength running out of strength at one point. Once that happens, these feathered brutes will devour me, and won’t even leave any bones behind!”
Zhou Yi was panicking greatly as he discovered that he could barely ensure his own safety. Who had the effort to spare for the other disciples now?
Wails of agony could be heard all around him, but Zhou Yi ignored them all. His sword thrust to the east and to the west, trying to identify the weak point in this formation and the path to break free from it.
He was well aware that, if he couldn’t make it out, he would be dragged down to his death sooner or later.
These spirit creatures might not have the strength to kill him with a single blow, but this was still a battle formation! It was a mob beating down on just little old him.
He’d definitely be the one to weaken first in a sustained battle. Even though he held the absolute advantage with his earth spirit realm strength, but the first to run out of energy whilst fighting against this battle formation would absolutely be him.
Not to mention the fact that there were thousands of spirit creatures on the outskirts. Although they were of the mortal rank, they were all at the peak of that rank. Even if he made it out of this formation at the end of his tether, he wouldn’t have the strength to charge again, and make it out of the larger formation on the outside.
Therefore, the most important thing to him right now was to make use of the time he had, break free of the first encirclement, and flee for his life!
Iron Dazhi’s mentality was still more or less affected when he heard the law enforcement disciples cry out with pain.
He was already employing his Black Dragon Halberd to its utmost at the time, but he was still unable to take down Jiang Chen, no matter how fiercely he fought.
Iron Dazhi had battled countless numbers of inner and outer geniuses since he’d embarked on his path of the martial dao, but he’d never been as aggrieved as he was today.
Even though this Jiang Chen’s level of training was much lower than his, he had no way to do anything to his opponent.
“Iron Dazhi, it sounds like the companions you brought along aren’t holding up well.” Jiang Chen’s blade twisted as he struck a blow towards his foe’s head. The blade’s form charged forward like the waterfall cascading down from the nine heavens, unstoppable in its motion, like an army of tens of thousands strong.
This stroke raised sparks when it crashed into the halberd.
Spirit ripples from the clash of spirit power slowly spread throughout the air.
Iron Dazhi flicked a glance towards his halberd, and saw that a few cracks had actually appeared on it!
“How is this even possible?” Great waves of shock rose in his heart.
This Black Dragon Halberd has been his greatest ace whenever he fought opponents of the same level as him.
There were almost none who also possessed weapons that were on par with his.
He’d made use of this weapon in order to trample a countless number of his peers. It was basically the reason for his domination of the sect.
But now, his greatest reliance seemed to be a simple short splint of wood in front of Jiang Chen!
Hairline cracks had started to appear upon the Black Dragon Halberd after this blow.
Although it wasn’t devastating damage, it was said that his halberd was made from the skeleton of a deceased deep water black dragon. Once its skeleton had mineralized, and had turned to metal, it had been dug up and refined
