Hu hu hu hu!The wind was torn apart!
Hundreds of low-grade spiritual crossbow arrows crossed and killed in an instant, almost covering and enveloping the entire secret chamber.
"Everyone, hold on."
The crowd shouted loudly.
Dang dang dang!
Several Golden Core elders, holding magical treasures, perfectly blocked the attacking arrows in front of them, these old fellows were too experienced.
"Damn it, damn it." But the cultivators below the Golden Core were much more panicked, desperately defending with their magical treasures in hand.
Dang dang dang!
One after another, the high-speed arrows directly attacked them, their attack power was so strong that it was very difficult for them to defend.
Bang!
A middle-aged Foundation Establishment cultivator used his long saber to deflect a crossbow arrow and felt the powerful impact force of the arrow during the defense, even though it was blown away.
After one round, everyone barely managed to defend themselves.
But in the next round, people found that the arrows on the high-grade crossbows had all been replaced with mid-grade spiritual crossbow arrows.
If they found it hard to defend against low-grade spiritual crossbow arrows, now that they had been switched for mid-grade ones, most of them would meet their demise.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The next round of crossbow arrows was fired.
A dense shower of arrows came at them, causing everyone to break out in cold sweat.
"No." Pff! An arrow shot forth, piercing through the arm of a Foundation Establishment cultivator on the spot. Then another arrow approached his head, and the young man's soul shivered as he screamed out in terror.
"Whew." In that critical moment, a flying sword suddenly flew in, deflecting the incoming arrow, saving the young man from harm.
The one who came to the rescue in that critical moment was none other than the white-haired elder who had come to conduct the assessment. He chuckled and said, "Everyone, since the Dao Sect sent us to eradicate this evil, how could we let these villains slaughter in front of us? I sense that the other city lords from Baxuan City are behind that stone wall ahead; they can't escape.
There's no need to worry about startling the snake by hitting the grass anymore, let's all strike together."
"Good, let's strike together!" The refined middle-aged man called out.
The group erupted with the powerful strength of peak Golden Core masters, and the flying spiritual arrows were deflected and shattered one by one.
The next moment, everyone joined forces in a strike, and with a bang, they destroyed the protective barrier, blasting open their way, and the secret tunnel appeared once again.
"They're Dao Sect disciples, haha, we are saved!" Everyone was overjoyed, and their will to fight soared in an instant.
"You all, exit the secret chamber first," the refined middle-aged man commanded.
Without needing to say more, valuing their lives dearly, everyone retreated towards the passageway.
With the help of Yang Ji and others blocking for them, in no time at all, everyone safely exited the secret chamber.
"You, Dao Sect disciples?" Gui Xiao saw this scene, and his face turned dark. The crowd had hidden their true strength, and he would have been unable to discern their real cultivation levels with his naked eye if he hadn't tested them personally.
"Hmph! Today I will take your heads." The white-haired elder snorted coldly, exchanged glances with the others, and struck together toward the stone wall ahead.
Bang! The stone wall crumbled, and seven figures appeared from the secret chamber hidden behind it.
Their gazes met, each filled with intent of slaughter.
"Pick one and kill!" S~eaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Dao Sect disciples? Ruining my plans, you also deserve to die!" The resolute and decisive man was the first to charge out, confronting the white-haired elder.
The Dao Sect disciples also stepped forward, each confronting Gui Xiao, the silent bloodthirsty man, the old woman who toyed with poisons, the handsome young man, the middle-aged man manipulating flying needles, the short and fierce man, and the seductive woman holding a flute.
The last one was a little girl, barefooted with an innocent appearance, looking at Yang Ji weakly and cutely, sizing him up.
Suddenly, one disappeared from the spot.
Yang Ji saw the information for Earth Jutsu flash before his eyes, and in the next moment, the little girl emerged from the ground in front of him like a ghost, her silver dagger stabbing straight at his Dantian.
Yang Ji reacted swiftly, deflecting the dagger with a sword, then swung his flying sword fiercely at the little girl.
Clang! The little girl was sent flying several meters by the sword, her face changing drastically as she petulantly said, "Hmph, you used so much force, I don't want to play with you anymore."
With a swoosh, she disappeared into the ground.
"You want to leave?" Her head was the proof of the assessment; how could Yang Ji let her just leave?
Although he couldn't use Earth Jutsu, with the help of his Golden Finger Ability, he could accurately determine the little girl's location. His sword continuously slashed downward, sending Sword Qi deep into the ground, aiming to kill the little girl.
The little girl was terrified as she cried out loudly, constantly fleeing, and she eventually escaped the secret chamber and fled outside.
Yang Ji, using the sword in his hand to carve a path, chased after her through the tunnel he had created.
Meanwhile, back in the secret chamber, the battle was fiercely intense.
The people who had the confidence to join the Dao Sect and take part in the assessment were extraordinarily powerful, almost far exceeding those of the same rank. A battle between experts took just a few breaths to decide, and the outcome was quickly determined.
The white-haired elder had formidable divine skills and secret techniques, and soon defeated the resolute man before him.
Just as he was about to happily decapitate the man with a sword, the body of the man he'd defeated suddenly turned into a puff of black smoke, intertwining with the black smoke from the seductive woman who had just been slain by the valiant woman, forming a completely new person.
An unfamiliar face, immense strength.
Indeed, the person formed by the intertwining of two streams of smoke burst out with even more formidable power, striking the white-haired elder away in one blow.
In just a brief moment, he absorbed five other streams of black smoke just slain by the group, his appearance kept changing, and in an instant, he turned into a slender, sinister man.
