Chapter 2202 - 2201: Besiege Three, Leave One Open
A group of cultivators all noticed the celestial phenomenon before them, surprised and bewildered.
Someone shouted, "What’s going on here?"
Another said, "Isn’t this the world where one enjoys imperial privileges? How could there be thunderbolts?"
"Could it be that old scoundrel Wan Baochun is causing trouble?"
"Very likely, this ancient painting is definitely a trap."
"Indeed, the marriage selection ceremony is just an excuse by that old scoundrel!"
"..."
The more the crowd analyzed, the more astonished they became, linking all the blame to Wan Baochun.
Long Fei wouldn’t miss this chance, hiding behind Su Yue and stirring, "The energy of this ancient painting surely comes from devouring the essence, qi, and spirit of cultivators. The more cultivators it devours, the stronger it becomes. We’ve been tricked, everyone quickly find a way out!"
Someone shouted, "Afraid of what, isn’t there the talisman?"
He activated the talisman in his hand, with a crack, a bolt of heavenly thunder swiftly struck him, pulverizing him.
The killing laws of the ancient painting were triggered, rolling up a black cavern, swallowing his primordial spirit entirely.
Everyone was frightened, promptly throwing away the talismans in their hands.
Someone cursed, "Wan Baochun indeed tricked us, these talismans can’t get us out."
"That old scoundrel, once I get out, I’ll kill him!"
Someone cursed angrily, momentarily without any solution.
Long Fei sneered behind Su Yue, as he had set up the Thunder Summoning Grand Formation in accordance with the talisman’s laws.
This talisman is a spatial talisman, once crushed it can conduct spatial shift.
Wan Baochun didn’t deceive them, this talisman can lead out.
Just on this mountain, the talisman changed from a spatial talisman to a lightning talisman.
Once activated, thunderbolts immediately descend.
Wan Baochun wouldn’t be foolish enough to drain the pond to catch fish, he deliberately used this Space-breaking Talisman to prove his ancient painting can be exited.
With such a chance of survival, people boldly entered the painting.
Those who entered, as long as they’re captivated by the beauty here, would willingly be devoured by this ancient painting.
The sound of thunder and lightning grew heavier, with a massive crack, a lightning bolt connecting the heavens descended like a waterfall, engulfing a dozen within it.
The crowd instantly went into chaos, all summoned their magical treasures and scattered, trying to leave this strange place.
Long Fei took the opportunity to act mischievously, hugged Su Yue intimately, feigned panic and said, "Dear sister, you can’t leave me unattended!"
"What are you doing!"
Su Yue felt nauseated, her face flushed immediately.
Beside her, Yang Yan angrily shouted, "Little thief, let go of my junior sister!"
This senior brother was definitely a protective fanatic, and slashed towards Long Fei with a sword in midair, sword qi rushing at Long Fei.
Long Fei held Su Yue, flicked into the air and flashed back.
The sword qi slashed past him onto the mountain, almost tearing the laws of the earth, carving a hundred-meter deep gash.
Long Fei exclaimed, "Wow, you all turned against me huh? We agreed earlier, I give you the Azure Dragon, you protect me Zhou Quan."
Yang Yan said angrily, "We can protect you, but what do you mean by holding my junior sister?"
Long Fei coughed dryly, "This was just a subconscious reaction? I didn’t do it on purpose."
Yang Yan cursed, "Even if not on purpose, you deserve to die!"
His giant sword was about to slash down, Long Fei released Su Yue and left, encountering Wuu De and Xiao Ren, quickly called out, "Elder, save me!"
Wuu De and Xiao Ren raised their swords immediately, blocking Yang Yan, protecting Long Fei behind them.
Long Fei quickly said to the two, "Elders, these two are too untrustworthy. I give you the Azure Dragon Whelp, hurry and help me stop them!"
"Young man, you’ve made a wise choice."
The two smirked, just about to act accordingly.
At this moment, thunder roared all around Bliss Mountain.
The thunder’s momentum was huge, seemingly ready to pulverize this mountain into powder.
A series of booming sounds revealed a circle of black space cracks around the mountain peak.
All the cultivators present were bathed in the thunder.
Some summoned magical treasures to preserve their lives, while those with low cultivation were directly swallowed by this sea of thunder, reduced to ashes within.
Long Fei’s formation wasn’t large, the issue was cultivators resisting thunderbolts would trigger the ancient painting’s defense laws.
Once mana is used to resist thunderbolts, it invites greater law destruction.
Someone saw the truth, soon stopped resisting, bathing in the thunder, thus preserving their life.
This group of cultivators had all come from the greater world, carrying various heaven-defying magical treasures.
Someone found the formation’s breach, shouted excitedly to others, "The breach is southeast, hurry out!"
The tortured cultivators in the thunder didn’t think twice, immediately looked towards the southeast.
After detecting with spiritual power, they indeed found a breach.
Without a word, everyone headed towards the southeast breach.
Once exiting the breach, they disappeared into the void, as if leaving this world.
Suddenly, nearly three thousand masters rushed into the breach.
Someone carrying a spatial treasure first detected with the treasure, inspired shouted to everyone, "Unexpectedly, this breach is an exit. Enter the breach, and we return to the outside world."
Everyone rejoiced, increasingly rushing into the breach.
Only Long Fei knew these people were captured by his Mountains and Rivers Map, thus appearing to vanish ethereally.
What they see as the other world is just the world within the Mountains and Rivers Map.
On Long Fei’s side, the two opposing parties simultaneously entered the turbulent thunder.
However, both sides had lightning defense treasures, temporarily safe amidst the storm.
Su Yue and Yang Yan were eager to leave, Wuu De and Xiao Ren blocked them.
They protected Long Fei, shouted to Su Yue, "Junior niece, the Azure Dragon’s master has agreed to give us the Azure Dragon Whelp. If you’re still holding it, isn’t that against righteousness?"
Su Yue turned pale, angrily shouted at Long Fei, "You double-faced person, shifting one way then another, how can you be trusted?"
Long Fei hid behind Wuu De and Xiao Ren, shouted, "I initially intended to give it to you, but you didn’t honor your promise, not only refusing to protect me, but attacking me. Naturally I need to seek my own path!"
"Who said we wanted to kill you?"
Su Yue angrily protested.
Yang Yan directly shouted, "At the critical moment, are you two elders still entangling us here? Can’t you see if we can leave this thunder zone?"
Wuu De and Xiao Ren sneered, "No need for the junior nephew to worry, since you insist on not handing over, let’s show some real skills then!"
They approached together, simultaneously attacked Yang Yan.
Su Yue intervened, joined the brawl with Yang Yan.
Long Fei bathed in the thunder, shouted, "Why are you all fighting again, can someone give me a magical treasure to block this heavenly thunder!"
He was the one activating the formation, naturally it wouldn’t strike him.
He shouted inside, even though bathed in thunder’s light, it didn’t harm him.
The four of them were focused on seizing the Azure Dragon, couldn’t care about him.
He watched them, analyzed each of their weaknesses, knowing Xiao Ren and Wuu De were powerful in mana, roughly late-stage Void Insight Realm.
Su Yue and Yang Yan were like him, still in the initial stage of Void Insight Realm.
All four carried powerful offensive and defensive magical treasures.
If he fought them head-on, he probably couldn’t kill them all, only wait for a suitable opportunity to strike.
