Chapter 481 - 475: Pursuit and Slaughter
"When I say three, two, one, we attack the Peacock Great Ming King together, forcing Bai’s people to support the Peacock Great Ming King."
"Then, we’ll find a chance to escape. See you in the west!" Bai Ze’s voice echoed in the minds of the group of old ones from the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"Alright!"
"Alright!"
The group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains unanimously transmitted their agreement.
They’ve fallen to the point where preserving their lives is already quite remarkable.
Bai Ze’s plan, at this point, is their only means of survival.
"If you want to kill us, even in death we’ll trade for your Peacock Great Ming King."
"Everyone together, let’s kill the Peacock Great Ming King!" Bai Ze roared, making the appearance of wanting to perish together with the Peacock Great Ming King.
The next moment, a dozen old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains simultaneously attacked the Peacock Great Ming King.
This strike was the last blow from the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains, each using their full strength.
A dozen surging energies rushed forth, possessing the power to tear through the void.
The Peacock Great Ming King was already severely injured. If truly hit, it was unlikely he’d be able to hold onto his life.
"Attack, protect the Great Ming King!" Elder Bai immediately ordered.
Killing the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains and protecting the Peacock Great Ming King need to be prioritized.
Saving the Peacock Great Ming King comes first.
Elder Bai and four others quickly positioned themselves in front of the Peacock Great Ming King, joining forces to release an energy shield.
Originally, Elder Bai and the others were standing scattered, vaguely hinting at surrounding the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Due to intervening to help the Peacock Great Ming King, their positions changed.
The four of them came to the Peacock Great Ming King’s side, leaving exposed gaps in other defenses.
"Boom!"
"Boom! Boom!"
At this moment, the surging energies unleashed by the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains hit the energy shield formed by Elder Bai and the others.
The collision of energies created a violent roar.
The surrounding soil, rocks, and trees exploded, transforming into a yellow dust storm that enveloped the area.
Witnessing this scene, Bai Ze’s eyes flashed with alertness; he knew this was the best moment to escape and immediately shouted, "Run quickly!"
"Scatter and run!"
As Bai Ze’s words fell, all members of the Ten Thousand Mountains’ old immortals transformed into streaks of rainbow light, escaping in every direction.
"We’ve fallen into a trap; they intend to flee!"
"We’ll split up and pursue them, kill the heavily injured ones first!" Elder Bai immediately ordered.
Even though they’d fallen into a trap, there was no alternative.
Bai Ze’s method was an overt strategy.
The dozen old immortals of the Ten Thousand Mountains attacked the Peacock Great Ming King together.
To save or not to save?
If you don’t save him, the severely injured Peacock Great Ming King would likely face doom.
Once you save him, a gap will appear in the pocket formation, and they will seize the chance to escape.
The group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains discarded all honor and fled outright.
Elder Bai also realized that killing everyone was becoming increasingly unlikely.
Now, the approach to maximize benefits was to kill the injured ones first.
The injured flee slower, are quicker to kill, and several more can be eliminated.
Elder Bai, Peacock Great Ming King, Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, Golden-Winged Roc, Black Bear Spirit, all selected their targets and gave chase.
Peacock Great Ming King’s target was the Tiger Demon, the sole surviving culprit among those who attacked Kong Mengmeng.
Peacock Great Ming King launched the Five-Colored Divine Light, and it swept over the Tiger Demon’s body, splitting him in half, sending the Fox Demon’s corpse crashing to the ground.
Meanwhile, Elder Bai, Golden-Winged Roc, Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, Black Bear Spirit continued their pursuit.
Today’s battle cemented a mortal feud between Elder Bai and the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains.
While open attacks are easier to dodge, hidden ones are harder to defend against; failing to resolve them today would lead to major calamities in the future.
With this in mind, Elder Bai and the others resolved to eradicate all threats entirely.
After the Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder killed Jiuying, they turned their attention to Bai Ze ahead.
Bai Ze was the leader of the group of old immortals from the Ten Thousand Mountains; eliminating him would remove most of the threat.
Seeing Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder pursuing, Bai Ze felt a tremor in his heart.
Bai Ze knew, though Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder appeared to be a dame, she was anything but easy to deal with!
When it comes to combat power, even at his peak, Bai Ze might not be a match for Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder.
Especially now, with injuries plaguing him.
In desperation, Bai Ze could only flee chaotically, seeking to escape Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder’s pursuit.
Whether it was Lin Yuan’s misfortune or something else, Bai Ze fled precisely in Lin Yuan’s direction.
Bai Ze was being chased with nowhere left to run when he noticed Lin Yuan hidden in the shadows.
Lin Yuan, still weak in strength, hid using methods Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder considered child’s play.
Upon spotting Lin Yuan’s figure, Bai Ze immediately charged toward him.
Clearly, Bai Ze intended to capture a hostage.
It’s important to remember Lin Yuan is White Elder’s ally and the fated enemy of the World Honored.
Lin Yuan’s impact in combating the World Honored is unimaginable.
If Bai Ze could capture Lin Yuan, it would make White Elder and his allies wary.
Moreover, Bai Ze planned to align with the World Honored.
Going empty-handed and with Lin Yuan as a tribute would yield entirely different results.
With this in mind, Bai Ze reached out to grab Lin Yuan.
In the face of Bai Ze, Lin Yuan was nearly helpless.
However, just as Bai Ze was about to capture Lin Yuan, the Bronze Sword gifted by Human King Di Xin from Lin Yuan’s small world began to stir.
"Zheng!"
A sword’s hum resounded as the Bronze Sword soared, piercing outward from the tiny world.
The supposed world barrier was like tofu; it crumbled upon contact with the Bronze Sword.
The Bronze Sword pierced through the small world, appearing before Lin Yuan, blocking Bai Ze’s attack.
Bai Ze’s hand aimed for Lin Yuan’s neck but found the Bronze Sword appearing unexpectedly.
Thus, the hand aimed at Lin Yuan’s neck ended up on the Bronze Sword.
"Splutch!"
Blood spurted instantly, severing three fingers from Bai Ze.
"Ah!" He couldn’t help but let out a cry of pain.
The sudden appearance of the Bronze Sword not only saved Lin Yuan but opened his eyes wide!
The Bronze Sword once declared Lin Yuan worthy of wielding it only at Tier Two.
And now, uncontrolled, the Bronze Sword could easily sever Bai Ze’s three fingers.
Could it be that the Bronze Sword might one day truly sever the World Honored’s head?
