In the blink of an eye, everyone was already trading blows.
Under the suppression of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation, the True Dragon War Venerable was forced to retreat again and again.
Yet there was still no sign of defeat.
Off to the side, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue also struck out swiftly.
With the two of them bolstering him, the pressure on Wang Zhan lessened quite a bit.
The Sword Spirit slowly appeared at Wang Zhan’s side, and as she looked at the True Dragon War Venerable not far away, she spoke up, "He seems to be stalling for ti against us. I don’t know what this guy is actually waiting for."
In fact, Wang Zhan had already noticed this just now.
Although he did not know exactly how powerful the True Dragon War Venerable was, he could still sense that the True Dragon War Venerable had not used his full strength.
Even under the siege of several people, he was still completely at ease.
"Also, the people from the four cities have long since left. I’d wager they’re hiding sowhere, waiting for us to be exhausted before making their move at the first possible mont. We still need to guard against that."
Right now, the situation for Wang Zhan and the others was truly like wolves in front and tigers behind.
One careless step, and they would plunge into a bottomless Abyss.
Wang Zhan nodded, his gaze once more falling on the True Dragon War Venerable. He slowly raised his hand, and the Great Void Divine Sword instantly hovered above his head, its edge constantly adjusting, yet always aid at the True Dragon War Venerable.
The True Dragon War Venerable was also watching Wang Zhan in the distance. He had survived in the Captive Dragon Abyss for hundreds of years and had long since beco one with this place. The mont everyone entered, he had already seen through the extent of their strength.
And Wang Zhan was the greatest threat to him.
Wang Zhan flicked his finger, and the Great Void Divine Sword could be seen hurtling down toward the True Dragon War Venerable.
With a flash of sword light, blazing Fire Light burst in midair to match it, and that offensive was incomparably fierce!
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue hastily moved aside.
In the sky, the Heavenly Fire fused with that sword light, and very quickly, it was already crashing down onto the True Dragon War Venerable!
At the last possible instant, the True Dragon War Venerable raised both arms to block in front of his chest. A massive light screen of energy appeared before him, blocking the onslaught of the Great Void Divine Sword and the Heavenly Fire.
"Kid, you’ve got so skills after all."
The True Dragon War Venerable let out a chilly laugh, suddenly soaring into the sky as the light screen shattered in an instant.
The Great Void Divine Sword shook violently, and in the blink of an eye, it was blasted back, flying to Wang Zhan’s side!
This...
Wang Zhan’s expression changed; he had never imagined things would reach this point.
He had thrown out trump card after trump card, and still couldn’t even touch the True Dragon War Venerable in the slightest!
"Brother Wang, we really shouldn’t keep wasting our strength against him here."
Even the battle-hungry Xiang Tian quickly walked to Wang Zhan’s side, speaking with a solemn face, "There’s sothing off about this guy. Here in the Captive Dragon Abyss, it’s like he has an endless supply of power, and I can feel he’s brewing so kind of conspiracy. We’d better leave as soon as possible..."
Luo Xue also walked over, clearly in agreent with Xiang Tian.
Wang Zhan slightly clenched his fist. After picking up the Great Void Divine Sword from the ground, he frowned and said, "I still need his Crystal Core to temper the Great Void Divine Sword. Once we leave, it’ll be very hard to co back again. When that ti cos, if I want to temper the sword, I’ll have to think of so other way. Leaving now is really a pity..."
Worry was written all over Xiang Tian and Luo Xue’s faces as well.
But they and Wang Zhan were always of one mind. If Wang Zhan chose to stay, they naturally wouldn’t retreat easily.
After hesitating for a while, Wang Zhan still hadn’t made up his mind.
Standing off to the side, the Sword Spirit’s expression suddenly changed. She hurriedly said, "This is bad, that guy has set up a Soul Refining Formation here!"
"Soul Refining Formation?"
Wang Zhan was stunned. He imdiately glanced at the Sword Spirit at his side and hurriedly asked, "What kind of formation is that?"
"The Soul Refining Formation is extrely sinister, and laying it out is extrely tedious as well. But once it’s successfully set up, everyone and everything trapped within the formation becos nourishnt for the one who laid it!"
"Just now I felt sothing was off, but it seems it wasn’t just my imagination."
"No wonder he kept stalling for ti. The Soul Refining Formation only unleashes its greatest power at midnight, and now..."
Even though they were in the Captive Dragon Abyss, they could still clearly see the alternation of day and night.
"You’re saying we’ve already beco food in his eyes?"
Wang Zhan asked with a frown.
"Yes."
The Sword Spirit nodded with difficulty, her face extrely grim. "I can sense that there are still many people in this Captive Dragon Abyss. Although they haven’t shown themselves, they should all be experts from the four cities. It seems everything that happened today was the True Dragon War Venerable’s conspiracy. His goal is to lure everyone here and then turn them into his nourishnt..."
"No, we have to get out of here quickly, while the formation hasn’t fully taken shape yet. Otherwise, even for us, I’m afraid there will be no way to get away."
Wang Zhan naturally believed the Sword Spirit’s words. Not daring to hesitate in the slightest, he dashed off into the distance at top speed.
anwhile, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue behind them also quickly followed in their footsteps.
But it had to be said, by now it was already too late.
As everyone walked up to the exit, they saw an energy light screen blocking their way ahead, cutting off their path.
"Do they really think a re light screen like this can stop our advance?"
Xiang Tian had a fiery temper. He clenched his fist and suddenly smashed it toward the light screen.
But the light screen didn’t change at all. Instead, Xiang Tian suddenly realized he had been sucked onto the light screen, unable to break free from its control. The most terrifying part was that he could clearly feel the true qi in his body constantly draining away!
"This damn thing actually has the effect of absorbing other people’s strength?"
Xiang Tian’s expression instantly turned much uglier.
Wang Zhan and Luo Xue hurriedly moved to help, but the Sword Spirit standing to the side quickly blocked their way and said, "Within a Soul Refining Formation, everything has extrely strong suction. Once you make contact, it’s very hard to escape until your strength is completely sucked dry. And by then, you’re just a corpse..."
"Then what are we supposed to do?"
Wang Zhan looked at Xiang Tian with a face full of concern.
The Sword Spirit spoke in a low voice, "Leave it to !"
She pointed with a finger, and the Great Void Divine Sword instantly flew out from Wang Zhan’s hand, smashing hard into the junction between Xiang Tian and the light screen!
With a loud boom, Xiang Tian was imdiately severed from the point of contact.
Xiang Tian stepped aside, panting heavily, his face full of shock as he said, "I didn’t expect this place to be so bizarre. What do we do now?"
Trapped inside the Soul Refining Formation, none of their faces looked good.
Even the Sword Spirit couldn’t think of a solution for the mont.
At the sa ti, sharp screams suddenly ca from behind them.
Wang Zhan’s face changed, and he quickly said, "Looks like those people hiding in the dark have no choice but to make a move now."
Xiang Tian folded his arms and said, "Serves them right. Who told them to try and sit back and reap the fisherman’s profit? This is just evil eting its own retribution."
"Since we haven’t thought of a way out yet..."
Wang Zhan glanced into the distance, then said, "Let’s go take a look at the situation behind us. Maybe we can find an opportunity to get out."
The few of them nodded and headed toward the distance.
In the blink of an eye, they had already returned to the place where they had fought the True Dragon War Venerable.
Only, at this mont, there was no sign of the True Dragon War Venerable anywhere.
Looking around, all they could see were experts from the four cities.
Right now, everyone was roaring uncontrollably, and strands of radiance were rising from their bodies, gradually converging toward the sky.
"Looks like the Soul Refining Formation has fully taken shape. Even if they don’t touch anything, they’re already having their cultivation and power constantly absorbed by the Soul Refining Formation."
The Sword Spirit said in a deep voice, "We don’t feel anything yet only because our cultivation is a bit stronger than theirs. I’m afraid it won’t be long before we fall into the sa state."
"So we have to race against ti and co up with a way to break the formation as soon as possible."
Wang Zhan nodded heavily, but for the mont, he couldn’t think of any good thod.
And although his strength had increased very quickly, he hadn’t studied formation techniques much.
If he hadn’t comprehended the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation inside the Fire Deity Armor back then, he wouldn’t understand formation techniques at all...
Xiang Tian, standing to the side, clenched his fist and said, "All of this is the True Dragon War Venerable’s doing. If we can just find him and kill him, wouldn’t we be able to break the formation and get away?"
"Very difficult."
The Sword Spirit said directly, "Right now, the True Dragon War Venerable should be the Eye of the Formation for the Soul Refining Grand Formation. And didn’t you see all these people’s cultivation being sucked into him bit by bit?"
"That ans his strength is steadily increasing. We weren’t his match just now, so how could we possibly be his enemy now?"
Xiang Tian let out a sigh, and his expression sank a lot.
"This..."
Suddenly, a figure dropped down beside Wang Zhan.
Ling Fei Yun quickly appeared in front of him, grabbed Wang Zhan’s arm, and hastily said, "Brother Wang, your strength is far above ours. Hurry and think of a way to take us out of here. Don’t worry, once we get out, I’ll definitely give you a reward you’ll be satisfied with."
"You think Brother Wang cares about that crap?"
Xiang Tian walked up to him and kicked Ling Fei Yun away, then said irritably, "I’ve been fed up with you for a long ti."
"And when we were fighting just now, you were holding back the whole ti. What’s worse, you actually took your people and suddenly bailed at the end. A despicable bastard like you dying right in front of us would only serve you right!"
Ling Fei Yun hurriedly explained, "That’s because there are other people here, and I needed to conserve my strength to protect your safety!"
