386 Closely Linked, Entering a Dangerous Situation
“I’ve worked hard on it for many years. These are my most perfect masterpieces. Now that they’ve finally appeared, you should feel lucky.”
The Five Poison Sect’s ancestor’s tone was excited, and his fanatical expression made everyone shudder. When that was coupled with the expressionless army behind him, everyone felt terrible.
“What did you do to them?”
Even their most familiar senior brothers and masters didn’t have any reaction. They were like wooden blocks.
“The Five Poison Sect has the ambition of a wolf. They even did such a thing to my sect’s disciples. I swear that I will not lower my head even if I die. At most, I will fight them to the death.”
“The Five Poison Sect’s ancestor is vicious and ruthless. Even if we surrender, we won’t end up any better. We can’t let their schemes succeed.”
“I can use a secret technique to temporarily suppress the poison in my body. I don’t believe that we can’t deal with the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor with so many people.”
The sect masters sent secret voice transmissions to each other, expressing that they would fight to the end. They were all famous sects, after all, and if they really bowed down to the Five Poison Sect, wouldn’t it damage their reputation?
The sect masters of the Misty Cloud Sect, the Fire God Sect, the Tiangang Sect, and the others looked at each other. Then, with a tacit understanding, they rose up at the same time and attacked the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor.
They had been famous for many years and were sect masters. Even if they were poisoned and their strength was not as good as before, they still had a trump card in their hands that could temporarily suppress the poison and exchange for a moment of breathing space.
As long as they could control the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor, the predicament they were in would be easily solved. If they worked together, the chances of success would be quite high.
“Ha.”
The Five Poison Sect’s ancestor watched their actions, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. “You all overestimate yourselves.”
A large amount of black mist was emitted from his body. The first person to suffer was the sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect. He was the closest and couldn’t avoid it in time. The wrist that came into contact with the black mist instantly turned black. The black trace even wriggled upwards.
The face of the sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect turned pale with fright. It was as if his blood had been sucked by something. The skin on his left hand had become extremely old. From a distance, it looked like a thin layer of skin wrapped around his bone. It was truly frightening to the extreme.
“I’m sorry.”
The Tiangang Sect’s sect master saw that the situation was not good, and a huge defense Qi burst out from his fingertips. It immediately fell on the arm of the Misty Cloud Sect’s sect master, and actually cut off half of his arm.
Only then did he barely control the spread of the poison. It happened so suddenly that there was no other way. Otherwise, let alone this arm, if the poison was allowed to spread, he was afraid that the end would be worse.
“Thank you.”
The face of the sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect was pale. He had not expected the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor’s poison technique to be so powerful. He looked at the severed arm that had fallen to the ground. It was like a black withered branch, twisted and terrifying. It had been completely soaked in the black mist.
“It’s impossible to guard against this poison technique, you can’t let your guard down.”
“Be careful!”
The sect master of the Fire God Sect gave a warning, and huge flames shot into the sky, forming a huge fire dragon that scattered the black mist.
He was like a god that had walked out of flames. His fists were like the wind, and each of them was like a meteor that lit up the dark environment.
Everyone’s face couldn’t help but show a bit of joy, but the next second, the red flame emitted black smoke. The red and black intertwined, and it actually seemed a bit strange. It kept jumping, showing a trend of increasing intensity.
“How could it be like this?!”
The sect master of the Fire God Sect was in disbelief. The flames on his body began to go out of control and began to devour its master. The Fire God Sect was most proud of their fire attack techniques. They were extremely powerful and covered a wide area.
Now that the red and black flames had wrapped around his body, even his skin and flesh had started to burn. The sect masters at the side were also affected. Looking at the flames that were approaching, they had vigilant looks on their faces.
The black mist that had been scattered began to gather again, followed by red and black flames. It was as if they had been contaminated, and they began to attack people indiscriminately, making their difficult battle situation even worse.
This didn’t give them any time to breathe.
At this moment, the sect master’s hands had been burnt to the point where his skin and flesh were split open. A burnt smell lingered in the air. This was only the beginning.
“I’ll show you the power of my Five Poison Divine Art.”
The Five Poison Sect’s ancestor’s sinister voice was very close to him. His body split into many clones, and four of them appeared where he had been standing. One clone was already difficult to deal with, let alone so many. Furthermore, each clone had the power of the main body.
“I didn’t think that he would be so powerful after coming out of seclusion. It seems like we’ve underestimated him.”
The sect masters were almost being suppressed and beaten up. After all, they had to divert some of their attention to suppress the poison in their bodies. They had originally wanted to end the battle quickly and quickly subdue the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor, but the ancestor’s strength was far beyond their imagination.
The battle was in a stalemate, and they couldn’t gain the upper hand at all. On the other hand, the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor seemed to be at ease, like a cat toying with a mouse. He clearly still had a trump card up his sleeve.
If they were at their peak, they would definitely not be like this. As they used their spiritual power, their faces showed a difficult expression as they were unable to unleash their power as they wished. Furthermore, because of the excessive use of spiritual power, the poison in their bodies had a tendency to counterattack.
If this continued, they would lose without a doubt.
The Tiangang Sect’s sect master roared, and countless astral winds formed sharp blades, scattering the black mist that was coming at him. The Five Poison Sect’s ancestor, who was fighting with him, was stabbed like a porcupine, instantly turning into a wisp of smoke.
It seemed that this was a clone, and the death of a clone would not affect the main body, because not long after, another Five Poison Sect’s ancestor appeared in the same place.
Even if the clone was destroyed, it would still appear, and the speed at which it appeared would get faster and faster, catching people off guard.
Big beads of sweat had already appeared on the forehead of the sect master of Tiangang Sect, and his defense Qi was also much lesser than before.
This kind of cycle was extremely taxing on their spiritual power, not to mention that they were already poisoned. Even with the pills that Yao Tianchen had provided, everyone’s physical strength was already slightly exhausted.
