"Boom!"
The Bi 'an's gigantic body possessed enough power to split mountains. It tore apart one of the sealing diagrams and tore apart the entire space.
One of the five blood runic diagrams had been destroyed, and the other four were no longer of any use. The Protector Elders took them back, afraid that Suan Ni would destroy them again. These blood runic diagrams were all treasures, and the destruction of one was a huge loss.
A spirit beast with the bloodline of an ancient sacred beast was truly terrifying. Its battle prowess wasn't something ordinary spirit beasts could compare to. In an instant, it devoured three black-robed cultivators from Senluo Temple. The sound of chewing could be heard from its ferocious mouth, causing the other cultivators to retreat in fear.
The fifth and sixth protector elders each took out a spirit artifact. They were two black and white Yin Yang Pagodas. The two pagodas grew to a hundred zhang tall, like two black and white mountain peaks. They spat out the purest black and white light, trying to suppress the Suanni again.
"Roar!"
The Bi 'an spat out black lightning bolts. Each bolt was thicker than an arm. They turned into a sea of lightning above its body and supported the pagodas.
Its body was like a small mountain. It fiercely rushed forward like a mountain flood, its imposing manner ferocious. The fifth and sixth protectors had to avoid its sharp edge. They hurriedly retreated, not daring to face it head-on.
"Rumble!"
The Bi 'an pounced on a mountain and collapsed it. Rocks flew everywhere and ancient trees were buried in the soil. The collapsed mountain filled up a valley.
"Oh no, the Bi 'an has gone crazy and Sir Walker hasn't returned yet. No one can suppress it. Should we retreat first?" The fifty-first protector suggested.
Everything had gone out of control. The ritual had to be stopped. The Bi 'an was furious and bloodthirsty. If they didn't retreat now, they would suffer great losses.
The fifth and sixth protectors attacked at the same time but still couldn't suppress the Bi 'an. Instead, it became even more berserk and trampled eight black-robed cultivators to death.
Gu Lida wasn't willing to give up. The ritual was just one step away from success, but it was ruined by Feng Feiyun. This filled his heart with hatred.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
…
On the altar, countless strange beasts howled. The altar shook even more violently than before, as if it was about to shatter into pieces.
Feng Feiyun transformed the Heavenly Weapon Essence into a thousand palm-sized swords. Like a rain of swords, they flew out, cutting through the chains one by one.
The 20,000 plus extra-terrestrial beasts that were bound up earlier broke free and jumped down from the altar. Every one of the extra-terrestrial beasts became incomparably ferocious and they attacked the cultivators from Dark Asura Hall with everything they had.
Although exotic beasts were not as intelligent as spirit beasts, they had a trace of intelligence, which they could use to determine who their enemies were.
"Pu!"
Kacha!
Hualala!
…
Countless strange beasts rushed out, and in just a few breaths' time, more than ten Dark Asura Hall cultivators had been bitten to death. More than twenty of them were seriously injured. Some had their arms torn off, some had half their heads ripped off, and some had internal injuries caused by the hooves of the giant strange beasts, causing them to vomit blood.
The other three protectors killed more than one hundred beasts but to no avail. There were just too many of them. Even a Giant like them would fall if they were surrounded by twenty thousand beasts.
Feng Feiyun took off his cloak of concealment and stood on top of the altar high in the clouds. He looked quite heroic and nonchalant as he watched the intense battle between the beasts below. Divine arts and treasures filled the entire valley.
An evil smirk appeared on his face.
The Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess was also startled by the series of events and couldn't calm down for a long time. She stood up from the ground with a slender and graceful figure. Her black hair hung down to her waist while her face was as beautiful as a pear flower in early spring. Her silver robe fluttered in the wind, revealing her curvaceous figure.
She held the silver scepter in her hand, and the scepter shone brightly. A pair of holy and dignified eyes stared at the handsome man in front of her. A familiar yet strange feeling assaulted her heart, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
She had a Jade Dan Heart, and could feel that the man in front of her was not a good person. There was a strong evil aura and killing intent on his body, especially his smile, which was very evil, as if he was a devil that walked out of a devil's den.
However, he was the one who saved her. What should she do now?
The goddess was very hesitant at this moment. She wanted to go forward and thank him, but she felt that she couldn't get close to him. She wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but she was too curious about this familiar man in front of her.
Just who was he?
Feng Feiyun seemed to feel her gaze. He turned around and grinned at her.
Seeing this smile, the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess was scared out of her wits. She hurriedly retreated like a frightened rabbit. Her slender and flawless body floated up with a dazzling silver light. The light condensed into a pair of wings on her back as she flew towards the distant mountains.
Feng Feiyun was taken aback. He rubbed his chin and asked himself: "Is my smile that scary?
It's a very kind smile! "
"Little girl, you still want to run?"
Gu Lida noticed that the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess wanted to fly away, so he sent the two six-hundred-year beasts flying. Then, he flew up into the sky and stretched his dry, black arm into the void, turning into a giant black hand seal.
The Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess flew in the sky and felt the air around her solidifying. She felt like she was stuck in a quagmire and couldn't move. She turned around and saw a gigantic black claw pressing down on her head. It was as if the sky was pressing down on her. It was incomparably oppressive, wanting to slap her to the ground.
"Boom!"
The gigantic black hand was cleaved apart by a dazzling saber. A handsome, evil-looking man in cyan robes rushed out with a seven-meter-long saber in his hand. His sleeves fluttered as he walked through the void.
His heroic figure became bigger and bigger in the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess' eyes, filling up her entire vision.
He reached out his hand and hugged the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess's slender waist. Her soft, jade-like body pressed tightly against his broad chest, exuding an irresistible majesty. For a moment, the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess's mind went blank, and she forgot to struggle.
Gu Lida was heavily injured. Half of his spine was broken. That was why Feng Feiyun was able to break his hand seal with his weapon essence.
"Don't even think about taking her. Stay here!"
Gu Lida coughed up a mouthful of blood onto a piece of translucent beast hide. He threw it away, revealing a mountain and river diagram that covered the sky.
He wouldn't allow Feng Feiyun to take the goddess away. Otherwise, all of his dreams would be ruined.
Feng Feiyun smirked, a mocking glint in his eyes as if mocking Gu Lida's ignorance. He waved his sleeve and put on the Cloak of Invisibility again. Both he and the goddess were shrouded in it and disappeared without a trace.
"You can't escape!"
Gu Lida's eyes were bloodshot. He used his beast hide to attack everywhere, scorching everything within a radius of several dozen miles. Alas, he couldn't force Feiyun and the goddess out.
They had already left this area.
"Gu Lida, where's the goddess?"
There was a ghastly wound on the Sixth Protector Elder's shoulder. His flesh was turned inside out, and his bones could be vaguely seen.
The other three enforcers also escaped from inside with wounds all over their bodies. Then, more than forty black-robed evil cultivators from Dark Asura Hall escaped. Their bodies were covered in blood. Some of it was the blood of strange beasts, and some of it was their own.
"That bastard Feng Feiyun took the goddess away!" Gu Lida was fuming with anger.
"What?
This is bad. If the young heretical lord learns about this, we'll all be in deep trouble. "
The fifth protector had a worried expression. The five of them were strong enough to suppress ten Feiyuns. Who would've thought that something like this would happen? Even one of them died, eaten by the Bi 'an.
Senluo Temple lost one protector and more than ten half-step Giants on top of many third-level to fifth-level Heaven's Mandate heretical experts. What's worse was that Feng Feiyun took the goddess away.
This was simply a great humiliation!
If such a terrible situation was reported to the higher-ups, everyone present would be severely punished.
The sixth protector's eyes flickered: "Let's report this to Sir Life Walker!
He's the easiest to talk to. Maybe there's a chance before the worst happens.
If we wait until Feng Feiyun takes the goddess back to Witch God City, it'll be too late. "
The other protector elders nodded and agreed with this approach.
"We can't let Feng Feiyun take the goddess back to Witch God City."
"Rawrr!"
A ferocious beast roar came from the miasma that covered the mountain forest. The earth trembled, and a vicious aura rushed into the blue dome of heaven.
Immediately after that, the roars of countless extra-terrestrial creatures rang out. The sound of hooves gradually grew closer as they charged forward, causing the hearts of the cultivators who had just escaped to tremble slightly.
The fifth protector furrowed his brows and said, "This is not a place to stay for long. Everyone, leave this place first!
I'll go find Sir Life Walker and have him arrange for Senluo to seal all the gates to Witch God City. Everyone else, go find Feng Feiyun's whereabouts. We must take the goddess back from him. If he wins, the young heretical lord won't let us have it easy. "
"What about the Vile-Emperor Young Lord?" The Sixth Dharma Protector asked worriedly.
"The young lord is on his way to Ancient Jiang and will be here soon to take charge.
We thought we could defeat Feng Feiyun before the young lord gets back, but we ended up alerting the enemy and making things worse. "The fifth protector said.
"We must capture both Feng Feiyun and the goddess before the young lord gets back to save our face. Otherwise, the other protectors will laugh at us for being useless and losing to a junior."
In the depths of the forest, the mountains were shaking. The crazed beasts were coming out.
The Senluo cultivators ran away from this place. Aside from the fifth protector, the others were searching for traces left behind by Feng Feiyun.
