Chapter 180: Chapter 180 In Peril Chapter 180: Chapter 180 In Peril The ferocious soul power burst forth, and Feng Wuchen had absolute confidence in breaking the Soul-Sealing Formation.
âI know you are a Fourth Rank Alchemist.â As Feng Wuchen worked to break the formation, the elder sneered calmly and leisurely.
Feng Wuchenâs identity as an Alchemist had already spread throughout the four major empires.
Being a protector of the Ji Xing Sect, how could the elder overlook this fact?
Since he knew Feng Wuchen was an Alchemist, why would he still use the Soul-Sealing Formation? Wasnât he asking for trouble?
Hearing the elderâs words, Feng Wuchenâs brows furrowed slightly, but he didnât think too much about it. As long as the Soul-Sealing Formation wasnât broken, he couldnât move at all.
âBoom!â
âPfft!â
The wild soul power exploded with a bang, and the array shook violently as it was about to break. At that moment, the elder quickly changed his hand signs, and just as the formation shattered, Feng Wuchen spit out a mouthful of fresh blood as well.
âHe can actually control the power of the array to attack my soul body!â Feng Wuchen was shocked, which was completely unexpected.
No wonder the elder, knowing Feng Wuchen was an Alchemist, still used the Soul-Sealing Formation; his goal was to attack Feng Wuchenâs soul body.
The power of the array was not soul power.
Therefore, at the moment of the attack, even though Feng Wuchenâs soul body was strong, it couldnât withstand the attack of the arrayâs power, which was completely unrelated to soul power.
It was obvious that the elder came prepared and had specifically studied how to deal with Feng Wuchen to minimize the risks.
âThis old bastard is indeed terrifying. No wonder the royal family of the Luoyun Empire would collude with the Ji Xing Sect.â Somewhere in the shadows, a man spoke coldly, a flash of horror in his eyes.
âHow did this old monster injure Feng Wuchen? I havenât figured it out yet. Feng Wuchen is a Fourth Rank Alchemist; the Soul-Sealing Formation shouldnât have hurt him.â A man frowned and said.
âThe arrayâs power attacks the soul body, and no matter how strong Feng Wuchenâs soul power is, itâs a different matter. If Feng Wuchen falls into his hands, we canât do anything to this old monster,â another man expressed his concerns.
The elder was at the Ninth Level of the Yuandan Realm and had such a terrifying formation that even if the three of them joined hands, they wouldnât be a match for him.
If not for Feng Wuchenâs strong enough soul body, he would have died at the hands of the elder by now.
The injury to the soul body directly resulted in Feng Wuchen suffering a severe injury.
âThe force of the array trapped my soul body and launched an attack from within me, catching me off guard. This old monster came prepared; I was too careless!â Feng Wuchen frowned and muttered to himself in his mind.
Feng Wuchen had no choice; the formation must be broken.
âFeng Wuchen, your strength is very impressive, possessing the powerful Nine Layers Qiankun Tower and formidable Earth Grade Martial Skills. I might not be your match in a head-on fight, so the Soul-Sealing Formation was specially prepared for you,â the elder sneered slightly.
âNow that your soul body is injured, even if you wield the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, it will be futile. Hand over the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower obediently, and I might spare your life,â the elder continued, his sneer exuding confidence.
Feng Wuchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said icily, âI certainly do not think you would miss the opportunity to kill me.â
Who was Feng Wuchen? Lauded as the strongest genius among the four great empires, today the elder had become enemies with Feng Wuchen. If he didnât kill Feng Wuchen, with Feng Wuchenâs nature, the elder would surely not survive.
The elderâs old face sank slightly as he said fiercely, âIt seems youâre forcing me to take an action myself.â
Feng Wuchenâs soul body was injured, and his wounds were severe; the elder wouldnât be frightened by such a Feng Wuchen.
A fearsome killing intent filled the air, and without a momentâs hesitation, the elder burst forward, flickering several times before appearing instantly in front of Feng Wuchen.
âKylin Armor!â At the thought, Feng Wuchen summoned the Kylin Armor, and instantly, a pair of wings appeared on his back as a terrifying rage and bloodlust swept out wildly.
The massive black wings shielded Feng Wuchen in front of him.
âBoom!â
The elder slammed out a palm, and with that terrifying force, Feng Wuchen was sent flying over ten meters back, leaving two deep traces on the ground.
Just a casual palm from the elder, and it was difficult for Feng Wuchen to withstand it, indicating the severity of his injuries.
If it werenât for possessing the Kylin Armor, Feng Wuchen would probably not even be able to get up now.
His wings shuddered, and forcing himself to bear the pain of his injuries, Feng Wuchen flew up and retreated to a nearby rock, widening the distance from the elder.
Feng Wuchen did not flee; his injuries were severe, and even if he could fly, he would probably be shot down by the elder as easily as shooting down a bird.
Feng Wuchenâs situation was extremely dangerous right now. The injury to the soul body was even more serious than the physical injuries.
Facing such a formidable elder, what would Feng Wuchen do?
âIâll send you on your way right now.â The elder sneered contemptuously and burst forth again, with the power of his True Yuan becoming even more terrifying.
Feng Wuchenâs cold gaze locked deadly on the elder, his murderous intent growing more dreadful.
As the elder rapidly closed in, Feng Wuchen bellowed, âNine Layers Qiankun Tower!â
Feng Wuchen summoned the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower; the pagoda floated out from his body, flashing with golden light and exuding a formidable aura, quickly rising high into the sky and hovering over the valley, expanding in a blink into a tower more than ten meters tall.
From the bottom of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, a huge golden array emerged and enveloped from above, covering the entire valley with its golden light.
âNine Layers Qiankun Tower!â The elderâs face changed slightly, sensing that extremely oppressive force of domination.
The powerhouses hiding in the shadows all had their expressions change drastically, feeling the terrifying oppressive force the closer they were to the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower; even at the outskirts of the valley, their own power was being suppressed.
âHow can a Spiritual Artifact possess such dreadful oppressive power?â The elder was shocked internally. Only after experiencing it firsthand did he realize the terror of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower.
â`
Under the suppression of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, the old manâs aura was directly lowered to the Eight Layers of the Yuan Dan Realm, having a whole layer of his cultivation suppressed.
With a ferocious gaze fixed on Feng Wuchen, the old man angrily said, âFeng Wuchen, you are seriously injured. Even if your pagoda is formidable, you still canât handle me. Itâs just the right time to snatch your Nine Layers Qiankun Tower!â
âThen letâs see what youâve got,â Feng Wuchen coldly said.
After a brief rest, Feng Wuchen had already recovered considerably.
âHumming!â
Stimulated by his bloodline power, a surging force exploded out. Feng Wuchen poured all his strength into the Supreme Dragon God Sword. The blood-red blade flashed with golden light, filled with a breathtaking sword energy.
âDing!â
Feng Wuchen placed the Supreme Dragon God Sword into the rock, and beneath the rock, a golden array emerged. Mysterious runes rose one after another, followed by a dazzling golden light that soared into the sky, with sword intent overwhelming.
âIllusory Destruction Sword Technique! Illusory Destruction of the Ninth Heaven!â
Despite his injuries, Feng Wuchen let out a loud shout, forming sword-fingers with both hands. The golden light that shot up into the sky condensed into an energy sword. Under Feng Wuchenâs control, it fiercely shot out.
âSwoosh!â
âHumming!â
The extremely domineering golden sword light flew out along the ground. Seven to eight zhang in size, the ground shook and exploded, carrying a terrifying whirlwind as it rushed toward the old man, unstoppable!
However, Feng Wuchen, who was seriously injured, could not unleash the full power of his sword technique as he could at his peak.
If it were his peak, under the old manâs suppression, this one sword would be enough to kill the old man! Feng Wuchen had absolute confidence in this.
âEarth Grade Martial Skill!â The old manâs face turned extremely grave. He stimulated the True Yuan within his body with all his might, and a majestic aura burst forth, his long hair moving without wind, his sleeves billowing.
A terrifying power spread out, the ground shook, and numerous cracks appeared tearing through the ground fiercely.
âFeng Wuchen is truly a monster! To be able to use such a terrifying sword technique even when heâs heavily wounded!â
âWith such a serious injury, forcibly stimulating True Yuan to use a martial skill, isnât he afraid of worsening his injuries? When that happens, heâll only have a dead end!â
âIâve never seen such a terrifying kid before, but it would be best if he can heavily injure that old monster!â
The powerful observers hiding in the dark, feeling the overbearing sword energy from Feng Wuchen, were all terrified, their faces turning pale with fright.
âProfound Grade high-quality martial skill! Sky-piercing Claw!â
The old man shouted loudly, his claw condensed with an extremely terrifying force, and he struck without hesitation.
A ten-zhang large cyan energy claw tore through the sky, the sharp sonic boom extremely piercing to the ears, the force incredibly fierce, as if nothing could withstand it.
âBoom boom boom!â
âPuff, puff!â
Two terrifying forces collided in an instant, with deafening explosions that reverberated through the valley. Energy ripples wildly swept out, mercilessly ravaging the entire valley, and both Feng Wuchen and the old man were shaken to the point of spitting out fresh blood.
âHumming!â
The immense valley shook violently, with trembling sounds echoing continuously in the mountains, and a vast haze of dust rose up, engulfing the entire valley.
âThis is preposterous! To think that he could still heavily wound me while he is so injured! Damn Nine Layers Qiankun Tower!â the old man thought angrily, glaring at the towering pagoda above.
After the head-to-head clash, the old man was severely injured, his face pale.
The old man was heavily injured, and with the suppression of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, he now only had the aura of the Fifth Level of the Yuandan Realm.
In contrast, Feng Wuchenâs injuries were even more severe. Even though he was protected by the Kylin battle armor, his injuries were still worsening, and he was now half-kneeling on the ground, breathing heavily.
Feng Wuchen was extremely weak at this moment.
âThat old monster has suffered heavy injuries and is also being suppressed by the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower! Shouldnât we make a move now? The Nine Layers Qiankun Tower is right before our eyes!â
âSuch an opportunity must not be missed, and we can also kill them on the way and seize Feng Wuchenâs other treasures!â
âIf the enemy doesnât move, I donât move!â
The three hidden figures saw the opportunity right before their eyes, with two of them already eager to take action, but the man leading them remained vigilant.
In the valley, as time went on, the dust and energy ripples that had filled the air gradually dissipated.
âYou brat!â the old man glared at Feng Wuchen and angrily said through gritted teeth.
From a distance, the heavily injured Feng Wuchen, with a pale face, revealed a cold sneer and said, âYou think itâs that easy to take my treasure? Old man, no matter who you are or from which empire you come, I, Feng Wuchen, will personally come to collect the debt someday!â
âHmph! Donât even dream of leaving here alive!â the old man roared furiously, his killing intent soaring into the sky.
âYou want to kill me? Youâll have to ask my Nine Layers Qiankun Tower if it agrees!â retorted Feng Wuchen forcefully.
âSwoosh, swoosh, swoosh!â
At that moment, several figures suddenly moved from the left side of the mountain valley, five people in total, each emitting a strong aura.
Feng Wuchenâs expression changed slightly as he thought to himself, âSure enough, other forces are also hiding here!â
âProtector Xinglan looks quite embarrassed,â the leading man said with a mocking sneer, his eyes filled with scorn.
