319: Chapter 319 David's Sneak Attack

"He... He went through?"

"It looks like one Talismanic Incantation only serves as a one-way ticket! For a seven-person team like ours, we'd probably have to shatter the barrier seven times and get seven Talismanic Incantations to let everyone in!"

"That's going to be difficult! Unleashing an eighth-rank attack once is already extremely hard and consumes a massive amount of spiritual power, maybe even requiring one's trump cards. Now it has to be done multiple times in a row?"

"True. We can't let the strongest members of the team exhaust all their power just to get in, or only send one or two people to explore, right? The risk in the unknown Ultimate Darkness Zone would be too great!"

---

The crowd buzzed with discussion, somewhat dissatisfied with the rules here.

After passing through the barrier, Black Rose did not head deeper immediately.

Instead, she stayed near the barrier and nodded to Chen Yi outside, indicating it was temporarily safe inside.

Seeing this, Chen Yi felt reassured.

He raised the Seven-Colored Flame Sword in his hand once more, his gaze locked onto the barrier.

"Boom!"

The second strike fell, and the barrier shattered accordingly. A second sky-blue Talismanic Incantation dropped as a result.

"Ano... Another single strike?"

David was completely stunned. "You can actually unleash such powerful attacks consecutively? Is your spiritual power infinite?"

Chen Yi ignored him, picked up the second Talismanic Incantation, and handed it to Lilian. "Lilian, you go in first too, so you and Black Rose can look out for each other!"

"Okay!"

Lilian nodded obediently, took the Talismanic Incantation, and successfully passed through the barrier as well.

Everyone thought Chen Yi would follow up with a third strike to send a third girl in.

Unexpectedly, his next move once again overturned everyone's understanding.

Chen Yi took out the beast taming whip from his space ring. With a flick of his wrist, he lightly tapped Lin Mengxue, Luo Shiyin, Su Taotao, Yan Jiuyue, Hua Yuetong, Hua Xingtong, Chu Feiyu, and Yun Zhiyao—all eight girls!

After a series of crisp whip cracks, a jaw-dropping phenomenon occurred!

Eight pillars of spiritual power in different colors suddenly shot up from within the eight girls!

The Ice Dragon's chill, the Qingluan's hurricane, the Taotie's Devouring Power, the Nine-Tails' ethereal Fox Fire, the Light-Dark Fairy's interwoven energy, the Phoenix's Nirvana Flame, and the Dragon-Shark's Deep-sea Waves—

The eight powerful auras intertwined, creating a pressure several times more terrifying than Chen Yi's Seven-Colored Flame Sword just now!

The entire continent was trembling violently!

The percentage boost of the beast taming whip manifested more terrifyingly on targets with higher base attributes!

With the enhancement of the beast taming whip, the eight girls' constitution and spiritual power attributes were now close to the eighth-rank level!

Combined with the powerful strength gains from their SSS-rank Bloodlines, it wasn't difficult to unleash power beyond the eighth rank!

"Beautiful ladies!"

Chen Yi smiled and retracted the beast taming whip, pointing at the barrier ahead. "This thing is a pretty good training post. You can try and see exactly what level your strength has reached in this enhanced state!"

As soon as he said this, an eager light instantly erupted in The girls' eyes.

They had long wanted to try their hands personally; seeing Chen Yi easily slash through the barrier just now had made them even more restless!

Now, they finally had the chance!

"I'll go first!"

Lin Mengxue gave a soft shout and transformed into an Ice Dragon.

A breath of extreme cold dragon breath spewed out, slamming hard against the barrier!

"Crack!"

The barrier shattered on impact, and a Talismanic Incantation fell.

Clearly, this Ice Dragon breath had reached a power level above the eighth rank!

"Let me try!"

Immediately after, Luo Shiyin spread her azure wings, and endless Wind Blades converged into a drill-like storm, instantly tearing the barrier apart!

A Talismanic Incantation also fell!

Behind Su Taotao, a phantom of the Taotie expanded, converging into a palm that blotted out the sky and slammed down;

Yan Jiuyue's nine tails swayed as Fox Fire and illusions combined, condensing into a massive pink light sword that slashed down violently;

Hua Yuetong and Hua Xingtong combined light and darkness, forming two torrents of energy that annihilated everything, striking two different points respectively;

Chu Feiyu unleashed Seven-colored Brilliant Flames, enveloping the entire barrier;

Yun Zhiyao channeled Void Water Essence, transforming it into a city-breaking giant hammer that smashed into the barrier!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

---

Eight consecutive loud bangs echoed through the sky!

That incredibly sturdy final barrier was easily shattered eight times in succession before the eight enhanced girls!

Eight sky-blue Talismanic Incantations fluttered down one after another.

Every single Contracted Spirit Beast could actually unleash power above the eighth rank?

What the hell is this?

Shi Yuying, David, and all the Contracted Spirit Beasts under their command were now completely dumbfounded, their minds blank!

"Mon... Monsters! They're all monsters!"

David muttered to himself, dazed.

He had originally thought the strongest under Chen Yi was probably that Nine-Tailed Fox.

That was why, when he had fought earlier, only the Nine-Tailed Fox had stepped out!

Who would have thought every single one of them was so ridiculously strong?

Shi Yuying also sucked in a breath of cold air. As the Demon Empress, she could feel even more how terrifying the power these girls were unleashing was!

This had completely exceeded her understanding of spirit beast power!

How on earth did this Chen Yi raise such a group of monsters?

At this moment, the eight Talismanic Incantations fell into the hands of the eight girls respectively.

Chen Yi himself casually condensed the Seven-Colored Flame Sword again, nonchalantly delivering a third strike and obtaining his own ninth Talismanic Incantation!

"Alright, the collection is complete. It's time for us to go."

Chen Yi clapped his hands and said, "Let's go in one by one. Be careful!"

"Okay!!!"

The girls excitedly took their Talismanic Incantations and passed through the barrier one by one.

Yan Jiuyue, Chu Feiyu, Yun Zhiyao, Lin Mengxue... In the blink of an eye, only Chen Yi and Su Taotao were left outside the platform!

Chen Yi deliberately stayed until the end, habitually bringing up the rear to ensure safety!

However, at the very moment Su Taotao held her Talismanic Incantation and prepared to walk toward the barrier...

A sudden change occurred!

His Precognition Eye, which had merged with Lilian's precognitive ability, suddenly saw a vision of the future!

This David actually still hadn't given up and wanted to launch a sneak attack?

"Sword Emperor Secret Technique: Single Blade Shura!"

"Kid, you provoked me. Did you think you'd get off easy?"

"You, and those women of yours who entered the Ultimate Darkness Zone—I won't let a single one of you go!"

David, who had been listless, suddenly erupted with an extremely terrifying killing intent in his eyes!

He used some unknown secret technique, and his speed instantly increased to an unbelievable level!

It was almost exactly the same as when Chen Yi had kicked him at the very beginning!

Leaving only an afterimage in his place!

The Emperors Skeleton Sword in his hand instantly erupted with a purple light. Merging man and sword, he appeared directly behind Chen Yi and Su Taotao!

Even more bizarrely, a clone almost identical to his original body appeared beside him, respectively slashing at Chen Yi's and Su Taotao's necks!
