FWOOSH!
The earthen-yellow talisman between Yu Chengbo’s fingers spontaneously combusted, instantly turning to ash.
An utterly blinding light flared, coalescing in midair into a bright yellow canopy that spread over the mbers of the Lieyang Sect. Wisps of Spiritual Qi cascaded down from its edges, a truly miraculous sight.
By then, the cyan vortex had finished forming. The terrifying aura it radiated made the faces of cultivators like Qii Feiyun—who had only recently reached the Foundation Establishnt Stage—turn pale. They instinctively drew their Magical Artifacts for protection.
BOOM... WHOOSH...
The vortex howled as it descended, crashing against the bright yellow canopy. In that instant, the clouds roiled, and the Spiritual Artifacts clashing in the center of the battlefield were violently flung apart, flying back to their owners.
Next, the storm of Spiritual Power created by the battle, influenced by both Tier Three Talismans, began to rapidly contract. Once it shrank to its absolute limit, it detonated with a thunderous roar.
The deafening sonic boom forced everyone present to seal off their hearing.
Even so, two Lieyang Sect disciples at the Early-stage Foundation Establishnt were left dazed, bleeding from their ears. Only with Mao Wuwei’s help were their teetering souls stabilized. Otherwise, their Three Souls and Seven Spirits would have been scattered by the shockwave!
After the sonic boom ca a ravaging tempest of countless Gang winds. Formless, colorless, and all-pervasive, they sent the Lieyang Sect mbers scrambling in disarray.
"Now! Split up!"
Seizing the mont while their enemies were distracted, Song Xianyun gave Song Changsheng a shove, activating the Divine Movent Talisman on his body. Song Changsheng instantly transford into a brilliant streak of light, speeding toward Luoxia City.
After sending Song Changsheng off, Song Xianyun didn’t leave imdiately. He needed to buy more ti. He quickly took out a Pill to replenish his energy, then drew the two remaining Tier Two Top-Grade Attack Talismans he possessed.
The Song Clan currently had no Tier Two Top-Grade Talisman Masters, so every talisman of this level was precious—each one used was a drain on the clan’s reserves. But Song Xianyun couldn’t worry about that now. He threw them both without hesitation.
One was a Fire Rain Talisman, the other a Soul-Slaying Talisman.
Unfortunately, Yu Chengbo and Mao Wuwei had been wary of him. They used their Spiritual Artifacts to block the attacks from both talismans, which only managed to drain so of their Spiritual Power.
Glancing at the dissipating Gang winds, Song Xianyun let out a soft sigh. He knew it was a lost cause. He poured all his energy into his Flying Ship and broke through their encirclent to escape.
By the ti the Gang winds vanished, the battered and disheveled mbers of the Lieyang Sect could only stare at the faint trail left behind by the departing Flying Ship.
"Damn it! The Gang winds were centered on us! They weren’t affected at all. Now they’ve split up and fled. What’s our next move?"
Hex Beishui, the other Elder present, demanded.
All eyes turned to Yu Chengbo. He was, after all, the one in charge of the ambush.
Yu Chengbo’s expression flickered rapidly before he made his decision to split their forces. "It’s only been a few years, and that brat has already reached this level. We can’t afford to ignore him any longer. We can’t give up on the Green Sky White Jade Pill, and that brat must die!
"Junior Brother Mao, Junior Hex, and I will pursue Song Xianyun. Nephew Liu, you will take Nephew Qii and the others to deal with Song Changsheng. I am giving you command of all disciples, scouts, and spies in the area. No matter what, you must take his head before he reaches Luoxia City!
"At the very least, find a way to trap him until he’s dead!"
Liu Yunfeng was stunned by the firm command, but his shock turned to elation when he heard the authority he was being granted. He imdiately bowed his head and accepted the order. "I will do everything in my power!"
Just as Liu Yunfeng was about to lead his n in pursuit, Yu Chengbo reconsidered and added, "That brat has a High-Grade Spiritual Artifact. Its power cannot be underestimated. Take my Heaven-Encompassing Net with you. Even if you can’t kill him, you’ll be able to trap him."
Spiritual Artifacts possess their own spirits. With the owner’s permission, soone else can wield one without refining it. While its full power can’t be unleashed that way, it would be more than enough to counter Song Changsheng’s Spiritual Artifact.
As Liu Yunfeng accepted the Heaven-Encompassing Net, his hands trembled with excitent. ’A High-Grade Spiritual Artifact!’ he thought. The entire Lieyang Sect only possessed a few of them. Given his background and status, he would normally never have the chance to even touch one.
Qii Feiyun and the others were green with envy, but they also knew the Spiritual Artifact would be useless in their hands. With their level of power, they would struggle to even activate it.
Only after thoroughly equipping Liu Yunfeng and his group did Yu Chengbo feel reassured. He then led Mao Wuwei and the others in pursuit of Song Xianyun.
Song Xianyun’s Flying Ship traveled at a speed far beyond that of a cultivator at Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection. However, Yu Chengbo’s group was not unprepared. Mao Wuwei unfurled a massive beast hide, and as they stepped onto it, it transford into a swift streak of light...
During his escape, Song Changsheng constantly used Fleeting Shadows to speed his journey. Aided by the Divine Movent Talisman, his velocity reached a terrifying level, forcing him to maintain a protective barrier of Spiritual Gang around his body.
He was still thousands upon thousands of miles from Luoxia City. Even at his current speed, it would take him several days to arrive. In the anti, he was on his own.
’I can’t believe the Lieyang Sect was so well-prepared. A Tier Three Talisman, and it accomplished nothing.’ Song Changsheng clenched his fists, a bitter feeling welling up inside him.
’If that man hadn’t used that Tier Three Low-Grade Profound Yuan Earth Yellow Talisman, Song Xianyun’s Celestial Spirit Wind Evil Talisman would have taken out at least one or two of them. But in the end, it just caused them a minor inconvenience.’
