117: Chapter 117 You can all get out!
After raising his cultivation to the Peak of Ningyuan Sixth Stage, Ye Tian's speed was even faster than before.
He quickly traversed a treacherous canyon and, after about an hour, finally reached his destination, Broken Blade Cliff.
Broken Blade Cliff was not the solitary Peak he had imagined, but rather a massive rock wall covered in fissures.
However, when Ye Tian's gaze fell upon the base of the rock wall, the scene before him caused his heart to sink.
A brutal and fierce battle was underway.
One side was dressed in the familiar green robes of the Liuli Xuan Sect. About seven or eight people were leaning against a faintly glowing barrier light screen, resisting with all their might.
Every one of them was wounded, their Auras chaotic and weak; they had clearly been fighting for a long time and were at a disadvantage.
The leader was a young man in his early twenties holding a broadsword. His cultivation was at the Ningyuan Fifth Stage; he was the person in charge of this barrier repair mission, the outer Sect elite Disciple Chen Jianfeng.
At this moment, his clothes were tattered, and there were traces of blood at the corner of his mouth. As he swung his broadsword, fire-element true Qi surged violently, barely managing to withstand the opponent's attacks.
But anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was already struggling to cope, and defeat was only a matter of time.
Their opponents were more than ten Cultivators dressed in dark red outfits with skull patterns embroidered on their sleeves—Disciples of the Tianjue Sect!
These people were ruthless in their strikes and cooperated seamlessly, their offensive waves growing stronger and stronger.
The leader was a tall, thin man with a sinister expression, holding a pair of poison-coated short halberds. His cultivation was also at the Early Stage of Ningyuan Fifth Stage.
This man's movement techniques were unpredictable and his Moves were malicious; it was he who was leading the attack on Chen Jianfeng, keeping him pinned down.
The remaining Tianjue Sect Disciples were split into two groups. One group besieged the other Liuli Xuan Sect Disciples.
The other group was not far away, led by a Formation Master at the Peak of the Fourth Level of Yuan Condensation. They were using various sinister Magical Artifacts to continuously bombard the already crumbling barrier light screen.
The light screen fluctuated violently as cracks spread; it looked like it was about to collapse completely!
On the open ground, the Tianjue Sect Disciples cursed as they fought, arrogant to the extreme.
"You Liuli Xuan Sect trash! Why haven't you surrendered yet? Once the Restriction breaks, I'll extract your souls and refine your spirits one by one!"
The sinister man with the short halberds laughed strangely while fiercely attacking Chen Jianfeng.
"Wang Xue! Your Tianjue Sect only knows how to use underhanded sneak attacks. You're absolutely despicable!"
Chen Jianfeng shouted angrily, his broadsword sweeping across to force back an attack as he spoke sharply.
"Hahaha! The winner takes all! This Broken Blade Cliff will belong to my Tianjue Sect from now on! You so-called righteous Sects can all stay here today to serve as fertilizer!"
The Tianjue Sect leader named Wang Xue laughed wildly, his short halberds striking at Chen Jianfeng's vitals again.
Other Tianjue Sect Disciples also clamored: "Senior Brother is right! Slaughter these hypocrites!"
"That little chick looks pretty good. Save her for me to play with later!"
"Hurry up and break the Restriction. The Earth Vein Spirit Milk inside will be ours!"
Hearing this, the besieged Liuli Xuan Sect Disciples were even more infuriated. However, due to being injured by the sneak attack and exhausted from the long battle, they could only struggle to hold on.
Suddenly, a young female Disciple had a bloody gash sliced into her shoulder. Blood instantly sprayed out, staining her clothes red. Her face grew pale, and she could barely hold the long sword in her hand.
"Junior Sister Lin!"
A male Disciple nearby cried out in alarm. He wanted to go to her aid, but he was entangled by two Tianjue Sect Disciples and could hardly protect himself.
For a moment, an atmosphere of despair enveloped the hearts of every Liuli Xuan Sect Disciple.
At this time, a green shadow had already quietly appeared behind a giant rock at the edge of the battlefield.
It was Ye Tian!
His gaze was calm as he quickly scanned the field, taking in the entire situation.
The numbers on both sides, their cultivation levels, their states, and that precarious Restriction... all information was analyzed in an instant.
"The situation is grim..."
Ye Tian's eyes turned slightly cold.
The other side had clearly come prepared. Their goal was not just to kill, but to completely destroy the Restriction and seize the resources that might exist behind it.
The Liuli Xuan Sect side was at the end of its rope. If no one came to their rescue, they would likely be completely wiped out.
He couldn't wait any longer!
Ye Tian no longer concealed his Aura. He dashed out from behind the giant rock and charged straight toward the fray!
His appearance immediately drew the attention of both sides.
"Someone's coming!"
"Is it one of ours?"
The Liuli Xuan Sect Disciples' spirits lifted, thinking it was reinforcements sent by the Sect.
But when they saw clearly that the newcomer was just a youth in ordinary green robes with a youthful face, whose Aura seemed to be only at the Ningyuan First Level, their newly risen hope instantly shattered.
"That Junior Brother! Leave quickly! This place is dangerous!"
Chen Jianfeng blocked an opponent's strike and caught a glimpse of Ye Tian during the gap. Seeing his low cultivation and that he was alone, he hurriedly shouted, "Go back to the Sect and ask for help!"
Other Disciples also shouted: "Little Junior Brother, don't come over! Run!"
"These people are all experts at the Middle Stage of Ningyuan. You can't stop them!"
The reaction from the Tianjue Sect was the complete opposite.
They were stunned at first, then burst into uproarious laughter.
"Hahaha! Has the Liuli Xuan Sect run out of people? Sending a Ningyuan First Level rookie to his death?"
"Kid, are you even old enough to be here? You dare to wade into these muddy waters!"
"Another one coming to die! Brothers, put in more effort and send them on their way early!"
The leader named Wang Xue didn't even bother to look at Ye Tian, attacking Chen Jianfeng with all his might. In his eyes, Ye Tian was just a tiny ant: "Chen Jianfeng, it seems your Sect has abandoned you!"
"What's the use of sending such trash?"
Facing the anxious warnings of his fellow Disciples and the ridicule of the enemies, Ye Tian's expression remained calm and rippleless from beginning to end.
His footsteps didn't pause for a second; instead, his speed increased by several notches!
His gaze locked onto a man besieging the injured female Disciple, as well as another nearby Tianjue Sect Disciple who was preparing to sneak attack Chen Jianfeng from the flank.
"One third stage, one fourth stage. Heh, garbage!"
The moment he approached the battle circle, Ye Tian's Aura, which was originally only at the Ningyuan First Level, suddenly exploded!
In the next instant, an Aura far surpassing that of an ordinary Ningyuan Fourth Level Cultivator swept out with a boom!
Faint golden starlight flickered around his body; his entire being was as sharp as a blade!
"What?!"
"This Aura... Ningyuan Fourth Level?
How is that possible!"
In a flash, all the ridicule and laughter came to an abrupt halt!
Whether it was the Liuli Xuan Sect Disciples or the Tianjue Sect people, they all stared with wide eyes, their faces filled with disbelief!
A youth who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old actually possessed a cultivation of the Fourth Level of Yuan Condensation?
Moreover, this sharp Aura was definitely not something an ordinary Ningyuan Fourth Level could compare to!
"Not good!"
The Ningyuan Fourth Level Tianjue Sect Disciple who was about to sneak attack Chen Jianfeng reacted the fastest. Sensing Ye Tian's killing intent, his face changed drastically. He hurriedly abandoned the sneak attack and turned to swing his blade in a block!
But it was too late!
Ye Tian executed the Taixu Star-Shift Steps, his speed so fast it was staggering!
Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and Ye Tian's figure had already appeared in front of that Disciple!
There were no flashy Moves, just a simple punch!
The hidden force of the Overlapping Wave Fist was contained but not released, concentrated on his fist!
Boom!
A muffled sound erupted!
The Tianjue Sect Disciple's long blade was smashed into several pieces by the single punch!
The momentum of the punch did not diminish, slamming heavily into his chest!
Crack!
His sternum shattered!
The Disciple's eyes gradually bulged out, his body bending into a bow shape as he sprayed a large mouthful of blood. He flew several meters through the air before landing, his life or death unknown!
Instantly killing a Ningyuan Fourth Level in one hit!
The entire field became so quiet that a falling needle could be heard.
Everyone was stunned by this explosive scene!
However, Ye Tian's attack did not stop!
His figure flashed again, appearing behind the Tianjue Sect Disciple who was besieging the female Disciple.
He held his fingers like a sword, and a flash of starlight vanished from his fingertip.
"Starfall Finger!"
The finger wind pierced through the back of the heart. That Disciple didn't even let out a scream before he collapsed, dead.
In the blink of an eye, two Tianjue Sect Disciples—one dead and one heavily injured!
Ye Tian stood still, his face calm and his gaze cold as he scanned the remaining Tianjue Sect Disciples, finally fixing on Wang Xue, whose face had changed drastically.
The scene fell into a dead silence once more, with only the sound of the wind whistling.
In the next moment, earth-shaking cries of surprise erupted from the Liuli Xuan Sect side!
"My god, a Ningyuan Fourth Level insta-kill!"
"Who is this Junior Brother? When did such a character appear in the outer Sect?"
"We're saved! Senior Brother Chen, we're saved!"
The injured female Disciple looked at Ye Tian's back, her eyes filled with gratitude and even a hint of admiration.
Chen Jianfeng was also surprised and delighted, his gaze full of shock.
He had already resigned himself to death, but he hadn't expected such a powerful reinforcement to suddenly charge out in this desperate situation!
On the Tianjue Sect side, there was nothing but horror.
Wang Xue's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He stared at Ye Tian, his eyes filled with anger and a trace of wariness.
"Kid... who exactly are you?"
Wang Xue's voice suppressed his rage.
He realized he had completely misjudged him!
This seemingly harmless youth was actually a hidden expert!
Ye Tian did not answer his question. Instead, he slowly raised his hand and pointed at Wang Xue and those Tianjue Sect Disciples who were still attacking the Restriction: "You can get out now."
