The Black Robed Man’s eye sockets were empty and hollow, but Lin Tian couldn’t tell if it was an illusion; he felt that these Black Robed n could see. On a night like this, those with fainter hearts could easily faint from the terror of those hollow eye sockets.
"You shall not harm my master!" The Black Robed Man suddenly spoke.
The voice was incredibly hoarse, like soone who hadn’t drunk water for several days and nights, and it also resembled a rough object scraping against leather, extrely displeasing to hear and giving one the goosebumps.
"So they are your Shishen; what’s even more unexpected is that you’ve actually cultivated corpses, which is a great taboo," the Heavenly Master Girl frowned and said.
"A taboo? I don’t know what a taboo is. I have no constraints, I am rely pursuing pure power, purer than anyone else," Guizhong Yilang said bluntly, not seeming to make excuses, as he believed there was nothing wrong with what he was doing.
"I’ll let you die even purer!" Cunzheng retracted the Demon Blade and struck again with another slash.
"Thousand Illusion One Strike Style!"
Controlling Lin Tian, Cunzheng raised the sword above his head with both hands; as the power peaked, a blood-red glow flashed on the blade of the Demon Blade. With a downward slash, he aid to cut both the Black Robed Man and Guizhong Yilang in half.
Another Black Robed Man sprang out from behind Guizhong Yilang, both swinging their iron staffs at the edge of the Demon Blade simultaneously.
"Clang..." The Demon Blade struck the two iron staffs, with Cunzheng now controlling the body of Lin Tian, which was that of a zombie, unleashing terrifying power.
With just one strike, Cunzheng brutally smashed through the defense of the two iron staffs, the blade still slicing towards Guizhong Yilang.
The two Black Robed n did not hesitate to use their bodies to shield Guizhong Yilang, while also supporting him as they retreated backward.
The Black Robed n were incredibly fast, but they faced the formidable combination of the Demon Blade and Lin Tian, with the Demon Blade’s swing even faster. Despite their full effort to retreat, they were still hit in the back by the blade.
The Demon Blade slashed diagonally across the backs of both Black Robed n. If they were ordinary people, they would have been sliced in half at their waists.
But eerily, the two Black Robed n acted as if they were unhard, retreating with two other Black Robed n to a safe distance before stopping Guizhong Yilang.
The backs of the Black Robed n’s robes were sliced open, revealing the skin beneath, and a long, horrifying wound. But there was no blood spattering, not even a single drop.
The wounded muscle was turned inside out, and eerily, the muscle that protruded was grey-white, not at all like a normal human wound.
Lin Tian suddenly rembered that the Heavenly Master Girl ntioned Guizhong Yilang cultivating corpses. Could it be that the Black Robed n were not alive but were actually Corpse? Zombies existed, so the existence of Corpse seed plausible.
"Cunzheng, they’re not human, might be sothing like Corpse. Be careful with how you handle it, don’t damage my body," Lin Tian reminded.
"Your body is so tough, what are you afraid of? Even if thrown into a Sword Furnace, you won’t die," Cunzheng replied nonchalantly.
"Don’t be complacent. This thod of cultivating bodies originates from an ancient witchcraft; ancient people would cultivate corpses, turning them into Copper Armor Corpses, impervious to blades and guns, without feeling pain. But these Black Robed n are a bit different, it seems they’ve combined the secret techniques of Yin-Yang Dao with the art of cultivating Shishen, and they actually have a certain consciousness," the Heavenly Master Girl warned gravely.
"Whether it’s Copper Armor Corpses or Gold Armor Corpses, I’ve chopped plenty. Even if they are Corpse, I’ll still chop them up. They are Guizhong Yilang’s Shishen; the stronger the Black Robed n, the stronger the Spiritual Energy we’ll get once we kill them later. This is a good thing. Why worry? You should be happy," Cunzheng said indifferently, instead paying attention to the Black Robed n.
"Formation, Barrier!" Just as Cunzheng was being arrogant, Guizhong Yilang suddenly shouted.
At his command, the four Black Robed n lifted their iron staffs and thrust them forcefully into the ground, then rapidly made hand seals and chanted.
"No good, Demon Blade, break their barrier setup!" Lin Tian yelled. The object of Guizhong Yilang’s seal was the Demon Blade, but now the Demon Blade was one with him, so Lin Tian naturally suffered along with it.
He had seen barriers more than once: the barrier around the Shrine, and also the Five Elents Barrier set up by the Heavenly Master Girl last ti in Xikou City, all were extrely potent. Barriers were the most troubleso thing. If he didn’t transform, Lin Tian didn’t even know if he could break through one.
Although Demon Blade Muramasa was arrogant, he was no fool. The reason he was formidable was that he had once been sealed by a barrier for several hundred years.
"Thousand Illusion Sky Wolf Kill!"
With a shake of his blade, Demon Blade Muramasa actually emitted "woo woo woo" wolf howls, and from the tip of the blade erged a spot of blood-red light, like the eye of a starving wolf. He lunged forward, with his blade tip aiming straight for Guizhong Yilang.
Guizhong Yilang was leading; he was the master of the Black Robed Man. As long as he was killed, all barriers would fall without a fight.
In the mont he attacked, the Heavenly Master Girl and Ning Luoxi moved as well. They didn’t care what would happen to the Demon Blade; they were only concerned about Lin Tian’s safety.
The Heavenly Master Girl raised her purple Demon-suppressing Whip in her hand and then chanted an incantation: "Heaven and earth without limit, borrow from Qiankun, Thunder God Decree, wind and thunder shake, break!"
Boom, boom, boom...
The thunderous sound reverberated, and a bolt of purple lightning split from the Demon-suppressing Whip, striking at Guizhong Yilang.
Ning Luoxi was the most direct, scoring a punch and a "teor Burst" that she directly hurled forth.
The attacks of the three almost arrived simultaneously. With their strength, such a joint attack could even explode a tank.
Yet, before the attack reached the iron staff of the Black Robed Man, they could not advance an inch further. The tip of the Demon Blade rested in the air, where ripples were appearing around the point of contact.
Ning Luoxi’s teor Burst was the sa, like punching an air curtain wall, unable to push through an inch.
The Heavenly Master Girl’s lightning attack was even less effective, being directly absorbed by the iron staff, which conducted it into the ground.
"It’s useless. As soon as the incantation starts, the formation takes effect, and you can’t attack ," Guizhong Yilang said.
"I refuse to believe that, even Master Dao Man spent so much effort to seal , and you think you can seal too?" The Demon Blade Muramasa, defiant, slashed forward several tis, but without exception, all attacks were blocked by the invisible wall.
"I told you, you are no longer the peak Demon Blade, even a tiger that falls flat can be bullied," Guizhong Yilang said indifferently, ignoring the Demon Blade’s slashes.
"Lin Tian, get back, or you’ll be sealed," the Heavenly Master Girl shouted.
"I’d like to, but I can’t move, damn it, this broken blade is still controlling ," Lin Tian said.
"None of you will escape," Guizhong Yilang roared, raising his wooden staff.
"...Prison Barrier, seal!"
Guizhong Yilang’s wooden staff suddenly flashed with a black light, the four iron staffs stuck in the ground flew up, heading in four different directions and sticking back into the ground.
A massive semi-transparent barrier appeared, not only enveloping Lin Tian and Demon Blade but also Ning Luoxi, the Heavenly Master Girl, and Li Qingyun’s grandfather and granddaughter within it.
