The Heavenly Net and Earthly Web Grand Formation is vast, its formation imposing, requiring twenty cultivators of Immortal Sage level to set it up. These twenty Immortal Sages unleash all the Soldier Aura within their bodies using secret techniques, completely channeling it into the grand formation.
Once the formation is completed, the Dantian of these twenty Immortal Sages becomes void, and with a glance, they appear just like ordinary people. Their physical bodies are tightly connected to the formation, living and dying as one entity.
Now, as the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web Grand Formation collapses, the formation is destroyed, and so are the people. Thus, the twenty assassins naturally perish along with it. It is to be expected.
So far, of the fifty assassins sent by Prince Ann, Wang Xiaoqiang has slain two, twenty have perished with the formation, leaving twenty-eight remaining,
Among them, the leader is being pursued by the students' Power of Dao, running for his life, unable to escape. Meanwhile, the other twenty-seven assassins, witnessing the formation's destruction, are scared, and dare not confront the ferociously thriving ten students of Yueyang Academy. Besides, looking at the current situation, killing Wang Xiaoqiang is as difficult as reaching the heavens. At this moment, the twenty-seven wisely choose to hide in the shadows, unwilling to come out.
The Ghost Cultivators, in their despair, see the collapse of the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web and are overjoyed, like birds freed from a cage, they make strange cries, seizing the opportunity to escape, flying towards the Ghost Territory.
Fang Qiu sees the collapse of the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web Grand Formation, and drives the Golden Leaf Flying Boat to turn back. Seeing the Ghost Cultivators fleeing, he immediately commands the Golden Leaf Flying Boat to pursue them.
"Now is not the time to settle personal grudges, we must prioritize the big picture." Fang Qiu drives the Golden Leaf Flying Boat, saying meaningfully, then instructs, "Everyone, call back your Daos, then we will charge into the Ghost Territory..."
Everyone agrees, and then each calls back their Power of Dao.
The Power of Dao chasing the leader responds to the call and turns back.
The leader, exhausted from being pursued by a long stream of Power of Dao, feels the tension in his nerves snap as the power suddenly disperses, and he collapses on the ground, panting heavily, lying as if a stranded fish.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang and the others entering the Ghost Territory aboard the Flying Boat, the assassins hiding in the darkness come out of hiding, gathering around the leader, wearing expressions of defeat and shame, their heads drooping, like wilted eggplants.
The leader, recovering his vigor, stands up with a grim expression, glancing at his halved group of followers, and sighs:
"I didn't expect the Power of Dao from Yueyang Academy to be so strong, able to break the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web Grand Formation. Alas, I wanted to kill Wang Xiaoqiang, but fortune was not on my side!"
"Leader, now that Wang Xiaoqiang has entered the Ghost Territory, should we pursue him?" One of the assassins asks weakly, gesturing respectfully to the leader.
"Isn't that nonsense?" The leader glares at the assassin, saying, "Have you forgotten Prince Ann's instructions? If we cannot kill Wang Xiaoqiang, then we cannot return to see him!"
The assassin swallows awkwardly, not daring to speak again.
"Leader, I think entering the Ghost Territory is actually a good opportunity to kill Wang Xiaoqiang!" Another assassin says:
"Think about it, these ten students are here to exterminate Ghost Cultivators in the Ghost Territory. Once they enter, they cannot stay together the whole time. As long as they split apart, we will have a chance to kill Wang Xiaoqiang..."
"Hmm, you make a good point." The leader nods in agreement...
"The Ghost Territory is known as the Burial Ground, extremely dangerous. Over the centuries, countless cultivators have lost their lives there. Wang Xiaoqiang and just ten Immortal Sage level students, still smelling of milk, dare to enter the Ghost Territory. That's seeking death. Just because they scatter doesn't mean we won't have a chance to kill Wang Xiaoqiang... Maybe, before we find Wang Xiaoqiang, he will already be slain by the Ghost Cultivators..."
"Leader, you're wise!" The assassins clasp their fists, saying. The leader regains some confidence, showing a bit of arrogance, nods and says, "There's no time to lose, let's pursue into the Ghost Territory now!"
Saying so, he takes the lead in flying towards the Ghost Territory, followed by twenty-seven assassins under the night's obscured sky, entering that Burial Ground.
...
Although the Ghost Territory is rich with Corpse Qi, offering advantages to the Ghost Cultivators, those fleeing Ghost Cultivators aren't as fast as the Golden Leaf Flying Boat. Just when dozens of escaping Ghost Cultivators barely entered the Ghost Territory's border, the Golden Leaf Flying Boat is already only a hundred meters behind them. Moreover, the distance is closing.
"Get ready... Kill the Ghost Cultivators! Don't let a single one escape!" Fang Qiu drives the Golden Leaf Flying Boat while loudly giving orders.
The students answer in unison, immediately standing at the Golden Leaf Flying Boat's edge, their hands condensing Divine Weapons, calling forth their Power of Dao, ready for a fierce kill when the Flying Boat catches up to the Ghost Cultivators.
Wang Xiaoqiang takes the lead in attacking, he has the Sun-Shooting Bow, capable of long-range shooting.
He stands at the front of the Golden Leaf Flying Boat, almost next to Fang Qiu, legs slightly apart for stability, holding the Sun-Shooting Bow, pulling back the bowstring. As he pulls, three Soldier Aura Arrows appear in his glowing right hand.
Electric arcs flash on the arrows.
Three arrows with one draw!
The three arrows aim at three Ghost Cultivators ahead...
Taking a deep breath, he releases the bowstring...
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Three explosive sounds ring out simultaneously, the Soldier Aura Arrows shoot forth, heading for the three Ghost Cultivators...
These three Ghost Cultivators are, respectively, one Ghost General and two Ghost Soldiers.
Thud! Thud!! Thud!!!
Three Soldier Aura Arrows pierce the bodies of the three Ghost Cultivators accurately. The two Ghost Soldiers let out screams, dying on the spot, plummeting to the ground.
The Ghost General, although not dead immediately, is severely wounded, staggering before fleeing desperately with the arrow.
Wang Xiaoqiang's long-range kill inspires awe among the other students, thinking how wonderful it would be to have such a Bow and Arrow Magic Treasure,
At this moment, Wang Xiaoqiang's second arrow has already shot out with a swoosh, embedding into the back of the fleeing Ghost General.
The Ghost General lets out a sorrowful cry, plummeting like a sack to the ground, lifeless.
After the second draw, the Golden Leaf Flying Boat has caught up to the pack of Ghost Cultivators, allowing the other eight students to unleash their spell techniques, turning the Ghost Cultivators ahead into live targets, fiercely attacking with their Divine Weapons and Power of Dao.
This group of Ghost Cultivators are just a bunch of weak stragglers, eager to escape, unable to resist under the powerful Divine Weapons and Power of Dao, their screams echoing as they meet their deaths.
Boom!!
The Golden Leaf Flying Boat suddenly accelerates, under Fang Qiu's control, crashing into the backs of three Ghost Cultivators, sending them flying while spewing blood. Their souls depart to Western Heaven.
And under the students' fierce assault, this fleeing group of Ghost Cultivators all perish.
None escape. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations or monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
