Chapter 967: Chapter 967 Siege
“The God of Slaughter is right. Our primary task now is to deal with this old fellow first, and then I will choose a day for us to compete for the ownership of the Scepter of the Sovereign together. I swear by my Primordial Spirit!”
Isis gripped the Scepter of the Sovereign tightly. Though he still couldn’t believe Bai Xiaofan would actually give it to him, after a montary daze, he struggled to stand up, making a resolute and sworn promise.
For a cultivator, swearing by their Primordial Spirit ans they must fulfill what they vowed; otherwise, they might suffer heavenly punishnt during breakthrough attempts and perish under divine lightning!
Thus, upon hearing Isis’ resolve, Yaoyao and Liu Cheng hesitated no longer. They turned to Bai Xiaofan and faced the figure before them, Yichenzi!
“Kid, you’ve truly impressed this old man. Not only are you composed under pressure, but you’ve also learned the Immortal Technique to shrink space and cover large distances. Even a hundred years ago, you’d be considered a prodigy. I’ll give you one last chance—beco my servant from today, and I will spare your life!”
“If you like, this Scepter of the Sovereign could also be yours as my reward!”
The words and actions of Liu Cheng and Isis seed not to even register for Yichenzi—he completely ignored them, as if they were beneath his notice. Instead, his gaze rested on Bai Xiaofan, and the admiration in his eyes was utterly undisguised.
Hearing Yichenzi extend yet another olive branch, especially an offer to give Bai Xiaofan the Scepter of the Sovereign, the hearts of Isis, Yaoyao, and the others jumped into their throats. Nervous sweat trickled down their palms!
Compared to before, this olive branch was undeniably more tempting!
Neither Isis, Yaoyao, nor even Liu Cheng could claim they weren’t moved by such an offer!
A single Scepter of the Sovereign was enough to make every one of them willing to compromise!
At the very least, Isis and Yaoyao were tempted.
To serve Yichenzi as a servant? So what?
They didn’t care!
As long as they could acquire boundless power and possession of such a divine treasure, nothing else mattered.
Yet, in the current circumstances, if Bai Xiaofan agreed to Yichenzi’s demand, then it would spell a dire consequence for Isis, Yaoyao, and the other three.
Even if Bai Xiaofan chose not to harm them, they would lose their courage to stand against Yichenzi!
“You’re wrong! The gravest mistake you made was underestimating . Rather than yielding, I will fight till death—Ning Zhan Si! Never surrender!”
Facing Yichenzi, Bai Xiaofan slowly shook his head, his voice soft yet unequivocally resolute!
As the words left his lips, a fiery and overwhelming battle intent flared in Bai Xiaofan’s eyes!
A colossal character for “battle” materialized before Bai Xiaofan!
The faint golden glow of the character shimred, complenting the fierce determination burning in Bai Xiaofan’s eyes!
Hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words and sensing the indomitable battle spirit radiating from him, Isis, Yaoyao, and the others were inexplicably invigorated!
Even Liu Cheng, who had been harboring his own sches, felt his fighting spirit rekindled at this mont!
Those who have lived too long often lose the sharp edge they once possessed!
Isis and Yaoyao, along with the others, stepped forward to stand beside Bai Xiaofan, fixing their unwavering gaze on Yichenzi ahead!
Just as Bai Xiaofan declared—
“Ning Zhan Si!”
“Never surrender!”
“Marvelous! Originally, the four of you seed like defeated warriors who had lost the will to fight, yet you’ve been reignited by this one’s spirit. I’m finding it harder and harder to bring myself to kill you. Co now, let witness the force of your attack.”
Seeing the scene unfold before him, Yichenzi’s admiration for Bai Xiaofan nearly spilled from his eyes.
This youth was not only a prodigy but also a natural leader, soone who could bring others together in cooperation—a trait that left Yichenzi utterly fascinated!
“Alright then, let fulfill your wish!”
Upon hearing Yichenzi’s words, Bai Xiaofan struck with one hand, sending forth the golden-glowing ‘battle’ character toward Yichenzi.
Simultaneously, Bai Xiaofan’s figure flickered. Forming a hand seal, he fiercely charged at Yichenzi’s position.
At the sa ti, Isis and the others showed seamless coordination, attacking Yichenzi from both sides.
With such an ensemble, even a cultivator at the early Divinity Transformation stage would struggle to stand a chance!
However, the Yichenzi before them was no re early-stage Divinity Transformation cultivator—he was mid-stage!
Sensing the power emanating from Bai Xiaofan’s battle-technique character, Yichenzi swept his hand, unleashing a dense blast of Primordial Energy!
BOOM!
A resounding explosion!
A storm of sand and dust filled the air!
Blood sprayed from Bai Xiaofan’s mouth, his face turning a shade paler.
Yet, he seed to ignore his injuries entirely, imdiately unleashing another ‘battle’ character technique!
With the Scepter of the Sovereign’s empowernt, his Immortal Energy surged faster, so Bai Xiaofan resolved to launch the ‘battle’ technique relentlessly!
There was no other choice—this was his strongest attack for now!
Little Qing flicked its tail; the enormous, dozens-of-ters-long body instantly coiled around Yichenzi, binding him like a massive dumpling!
Yaoyao swung her claws fiercely, tearing at Yichenzi’s face and neck!
Liu Cheng’s wrist trembled, his longsword seemingly coming alive, emitting a buzzing sound as it shot toward Yichenzi’s throat!
Isis clutched the Scepter in one hand while striking at Yichenzi’s face with the other!
The four coordinated as if they’d trained together for years, each executing their role flawlessly, launching a combined, devastating assault on Yichenzi!
This attack was one they were determined to succeed with!
“Naive. A mid-stage Divinity Transformation’s power is beyond your imagination.”
Yichenzi shook his head slowly, his voice calm and indifferent, as if their attacks hadn’t even entered his sights.
Before his words finished, he suddenly exerted force with his hands, still bound by Little Qing.
BANG!
BAM BAM BAM!
A series of heavy thuds reverberated!
Blood mist blossod in the air, blurring the vision of all present!
BAM BAM BAM!
A subsequent three earth-shaking booms erupted!
The blood mist thickened further, like fog in the Capital City, obscuring all before them!
Through the haze, a golden ‘battle’ character descended from above, smashing toward Yichenzi as though to flatten him into paste!
The abrupt appearance of the character startled even Yichenzi, giving him no ti to react properly.
Raising his arms, he aid to block the descending ‘battle’ character!
BANG!
A thunderous crash echoed!
CRACK CRACK CRACK!
The sound of a stone slab fracturing filled the air!
Yichenzi’s knees bent slightly; beneath his feet, the stone slab cracked like a tortoise shell!
SPURT!
A trickle of blood appeared at the corner of Yichenzi’s mouth!
Even soone as formidable as Yichenzi sustained a asure of injury from that attack.
Though minor, it showed the effectiveness of their strategy!
