Was this new sect really this powerful?
To deal with this Nascent Soul cultivator who could swallow the entire Shangyang Sect whole, it was actually this easy?
He was already subdued just like that. If someone went up and delivered a finishing blow...
Who knows if that Nascent Soul cultivator's Nascent Soul was frozen or not.
If even his Nascent Soul was frozen, then this Nascent Soul cultivator was basically a catfish on a chopping block.
As if to answer his thoughts.
Suddenly, loud cracking sounds echoed continuously in the air. In the next instant, the massive ice dragon suspended in midair violently shattered!
The ice dragon broke into millions of ice spikes that shot out in all directions in the blink of an eye.
The area outside the defensive array transformed into a landscape covered in ice spikes in a flash.
Inside, Wei Hai's clothes were completely shredded. His entire body was covered in deep, bone-revealing gashes and bright red blood.
"Which little thief is shooting cold arrows from the dark? Come out right now!!!" Wei Hai was furious. The thought that his body and Nascent Soul would have been completely frozen by that chilling aura if he hadn't burned his Nascent Soul power made him burn with rage.
To think he had almost stumbled at the hands of a mere sect that only dared to cower and survive in this remote, impoverished mountain valley!
This was an absolute humiliation!
Just as his voice fell, a bolt of lightning even thicker than before smashed heavily onto his body.
These intermittent lightning strikes made things even worse for the already heavily injured Wei Hai, causing the flames of anger in his heart to blaze even higher.
Consequently, his cursing became even more vicious.
Below, Liao Pantu gritted his teeth, suppressing the crazy urge to curse back. He had just met up with the approaching Mo Que, took over the unconscious Mo Yuanjiao and General Mo from him, and hurried back together with him.
As he ran, Liao Pantu cursed that arrogant Nascent Soul brat in the sky a thousand times over in his heart.
Who is this dog calling a little thief? Who is he calling a little thief!
If I wasn't in a hurry to save people, see if I wouldn't curse this dog until he bleeds from the head!
If my soul body wasn't incomplete right now, I would definitely go up there, twist off his third leg, and use it as a shit-stirring stick!
Noticing an odd, out-of-place figure among the people running wildly below, Wei Hai immediately pointed at him and roared angrily:
"It was you, little thief, who sneak-attacked your grandpa, right! Just you wait!"
Saying that, he raised his hand, preparing to continue bombarding the defensive array over Xiushui Village.
Knowing that once this defensive array was breached, if his group hadn't reached the Path of Asking the Heart, they would all die here, Liao Pantu couldn't afford to be distracted by cursing in his heart and merely kept his head down, running for his life.
Behind them, seeing his master bring the people back, Sun Yigao hurriedly went up to grab Mo Que, whose cultivation was too low to run fast enough, and desperately chased after Liao Pantu.
The defensive array above was attacked time and time again, the booming sounds echoing endlessly.
The people below ran frantically without stopping.
Mo Yuanjiao, who was half-wrapped in Liao Pantu's soul body, slowly and groggily woke up from his coma. He saw Senior Liao's familiar yin-yang face, and turning his head, saw his father also half-wrapped by Senior Liao. Although his father had also fallen into a coma from the previous shockwave, Mo Yuanjiao could feel his breathing.
Thus, he spoke with a hoarse voice and great difficulty:
"Senior Liao, thank..."
The wildly running Liao Pantu directly interrupted him:
"Shut up. If you have energy, save it to rest."
Amidst the repeated sounds of Wei Hai clashing with the defensive array, the group finally reached the end of the village.
They were less than a thousand meters away from the Path of Asking the Heart!
At this moment, they heard a loud bang from above.
Then they heard Liao Pantu shout loudly:
"Dodge quickly!"
The next moment, a massive swirling current of air, carrying a scorching, fiery heat, swept over them!
Although everyone dodged to the side incredibly fast the instant they heard Liao Pantu's shout, they were still swept away on the spot by the intense shockwave!
Because Liao Pantu was at the center of the attack, he essentially took the brunt of it.
Fortunately, before the defensive array collapsed, it neutralized a large portion of the impact; otherwise, this part of Liao Pantu's soul body would likely have been completely shattered.
However, the massive impact still shook him so much that he could no longer hold onto Mo Yuanjiao and General Mo, and the two were thrown heavily outward.
Sun Yigao and Mo Que were also caught in the blast and thrown to the ground.
Seeing this from above, Wei Hai laughed heartily at the sky, then dived down toward them, saying:
"Give up your lives! You bunch of ants!"
But in the very next moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a pink light flying over from the halfway point of the mountain!
Its speed was absurdly fast. Before Wei Hai could react at all, he was sent flying.
Fortunately, this strike wasn't too heavy. He adjusted his posture in midair and hurriedly looked around, spreading his divine sense out to cover the area.
But he found nothing.
Suddenly, however, he noticed a cluster of pink light emerging from the ground beneath the injured people below, wrapping around them.
Then, with a swoosh, it retracted toward the halfway point of the mountain at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye.
Watching that cluster of pink light save the people right from under his nose, with a speed so fast he couldn't react, Wei Hai instantly flew into a violent rage.
"Does your sect only know how to hide! If you have the guts, come out and fight your grandpa!"
However, his voice echoed through the mountain range, but no one answered him.
Only the thunder rumbling above his head responded, and then, without warning, a heavy lightning bolt smashed directly onto his head.
This lightning strike was much stronger than any of the previous ones.
All the hair on Wei Hai's body, including his hair and eyelashes, was completely gone.
His clothes were also gone.
His flesh and blood were even blasted to the point of giving off waves of a burnt, roasted scent.
"*******!!!"
When he turned toward the direction of the Lingxian Sect, spewing out every curse word he had never used in his life, he suddenly saw that the dark clouds that had been churning above the mountainside had retreated at some point.
Replacing them was a bright, seven-colored rainbow hanging under the clear sky.
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Lingxian Sect's mountain path.
The pink light that had wrapped around Liao Pantu and the others gently set them down on the ground, and then completely retreated back into the ancient-looking Ten-Mile Peach Blossom Tree.
The people still remaining here were amazed upon seeing this.
Their sect's peach blossom tree could actually save people!
So amazing!
However, the real surprise was yet to come.
The Ten-Mile Peach Blossom Tree suddenly shook its trunk gently, and a layer of pollen drifted down from the peach blossoms that had been blooming constantly and never withered.
The pollen continuously fell onto Mo Yuanjiao and the others on the ground. Before long, they all slowly woke up from their injuries and comas.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."
