Li Xiaobai smiled at the corner of his mouth, casually drawing his sword as the Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch was activated!
In an instant, the bodies of all the cultivators outside the Formation involuntarily charged towards the center of the Formation, knelt on both knees, lifted their hands high above their heads, and made a worshipping posture.
“What’s going on?”
“My body is out of control!”
“Run, that senior expert has made his move!”
“We’ve all been sucked in, this great figure wants to kill us all!”
“This person is a fiend, run for it!”
The cultivators’ faces were stricken with terror as they found themselves uncontrollably rushing toward the center of the Formation, their hearts filled with an intense desire to catch the sword.
“Wait, this move seems familiar, I’ve seen it somewhere before!”
“Sword Imprisonment, Demon’s Wicked Sword, he is Demon Sword Li Xiaobai!”
“Li Xiaobai, he’s the notorious Li Xiaobai, so audacious, he actually came back!”
“He mixed into the Array Formation Sect’s grand competition right under the noses of several Sect Masters, quickly think of a way to inform the Sect Masters to execute him immediately!”
“I can’t move, great one, please spare me!”
Seeing the multitude of cultivators rushing towards him, Li Xiaobai chuckled slightly, “Hehe, since you recognize me, then I can’t let you go even more, all of you will contribute to my little treasury!”
The cultivators kept charging into the Formation one after another, instantly turning into puffs of blood mist.
The murderous air in this Formation was something they couldn’t withstand at all, scaring everyone witless, yet before they could react, their bodies were churned into mincemeat by the murderous air within the Formation.
Li Xiaobai nodded in satisfaction and took out another longsword with his other hand, casually slashing at the many cultivators struggling within the Formation. In an instant, countless bursts of blood erupted, turning the entire Formation into a bloody sea.
The air was thick with the stench of blood.
Tian Hui and Wanying, who were preparing to exit from the fourth Formation, trembled all over with fright, turned around, and scrambled away. They swore that they would never participate in the Three Sects’ Competition in their lives again.
Too terrifying, this powerful figure blended in and started a massacre. The young masters who once were impressive had no power to fight back and were all reduced to lambs to the slaughter.
Wanying was so frightened that her legs gave out, stumbling and crawling away. She had actually given orders to such a dreadful being. She made up her mind that she would stay inside the Array Formation Sect for the next ten years and definitely not go out.
The cultivators who were slower to react and had not yet exited the fourth Formation felt immensely relieved at this moment. Witnessing the bloody, horrifying scene, they turned tail and ran as fast as they could.
A few minutes later, the fifth Formation fell into silence, devoid of any living creature.
Li Xiaobai quickly swept through the spoils of war, collecting all the cultivators’ Space Rings into his bag.
The level of the cultivators on this layer was much higher than the last batch, intriguing Li Xiaobai. With this momentum, the further he went, the richer his gains would be, which he found somewhat exciting.
Turning to continue towards the next layer, he felt some movement in his arms.
He pulled out Ji Wuqing.
“Giggle, boy, this esteemed one needs to relieve himself!”
Ji Wuqing screamed in alarm.
“Endure it, the wind is calm and the waves are still.”
Li Xiaobai said indifferently.
“This esteemed one can’t endure any longer, the raging waves demand release!”
Ji Wuqing said in agony, and Li Xiaobai’s expression changed—this fellow really couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“Wait a bit longer, we’ll go to the last Formation and find a secluded place for you to ease yourself!”
“Giggle, boy, then hurry up, this esteemed one wants to relieve himself in the Blessed Land of Cave Heaven!”
“Alright, let’s go, and don’t hold me back!”
Li Xiaobai walked briskly, stepping out and leaving the Formation.
The commotion in the fifth Formation was too great; too many cultivators had died, and the entire Formation was stained blood red, making it difficult to go unnoticed.
The cultivators stationed on the sixth layer were now terrified, gathering together as if facing a formidable enemy; they had no idea what had happened in the Formation behind them, but judging by the trend, it seemed likely that most of the cultivators had perished within it. Could the Formation have gone berserk?
A figure slowly emerged from the midst of the Formation, the surrounding cultivators all holding their Magic Treasures at the ready, circulating their Cultivation Techniques in preparation for an attack.
“Stop!”
“What exactly happened in that Formation, and why are you the only one to come out?”
The cultivators asked with threatening tones.
“The Formation went wild, and most of the cultivators inside were killed or injured; I was lucky to escape.”
Li Xiaobai said breathlessly.
The cultivators nodded, accepting this explanation, which wasn’t too far from their guesses. The death of so many cultivators at once could only be explained by a berserk Formation.
“You’re quite lucky to have avoided the chaotic outburst of the Formation.”
“But I didn’t expect this fifth Formation to have issues; it must be the Array Formation Sect’s negligence.”
“Indeed, once this grand competition is over, I will report this to the sect and thoroughly hold the Array Formation Sect accountable!”
They hadn’t noticed that while they were talking, the man who had walked out of the fifth Formation had already passed them by and entered the sixth Formation; only then did they react.
“There’s something wrong with that guy!”
“He walked straight into the Formation, how come he’s completely unharmed?”
“Something’s off, this person is very strange; there’s something fishy about the fifth Formation, it’s not as he described it!”
“Magic Treasure, he must be carrying a powerful Magic Treasure that allows him to move freely through Formations!”
The cultivators immediately became agitated, looking ahead at Li Xiaobai and unconsciously retreating.
They found it challenging, caught between the strange Li Xiaobai in front and the potentially berserk Formation behind them, at a loss for what to do.
In the crowd, several figures clad in black robes exchanged glances, quietly slipping back into the fifth Formation, concealing themselves.
It was at this moment that Li Xiaobai made his move, the same tactic as before; his wrist flipped, and a longsword appeared in his hand. With a swift motion, Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch was activated!
“You’re alert enough, but unfortunately, it’s of no use. My sword technique is hard control.”
With the skill activated, the crowd in front of him, as if summoned, directly charged into the Formation.
At this moment, they finally understood why there was a fog of blood in the fifth Formation, why only one person came out. It was all his doing.
“Sword Imprisonment, Demon’s Wicked Sword, it’s Li Xiaobai; this man has come back to kill again!”
“The fifth Formation must have been completely slaughtered by him!”
“Li Xiaobai, how dare you slay disciples of the Three Sects, the Three Sects won’t let you go!”
“If you release us now, I will speak favorably of you in front of the Sect Elder; if you continue to be obstinate, you’ll have nowhere to go but the path of death!”
“Indeed, wise up and stop now!”
The cultivators were both shocked and angry, not expecting Li Xiaobai to actually make a comeback kill. It seemed quite a few cultivators had already fallen at his hands.
What chilled them to the bone was that they realized they couldn’t move from the beginning to end; they could only watch helplessly as their bodies rushed into the Formation and then burst into clouds of blood mist.
Li Xiaobai let out a sneer, “I have already torn my relationship with the Three Sects; you all might as well willingly become my little treasure trove!”
