The Demonic World I designed-Chapter 730 - 721: No Way Out!

"This guy’s spirit energy is not inferior to my own..."

Zhou Yuntao gazed at the surrounding trees that obscured the sky, feeling the air rapidly depleting, and his heart no longer held the slightest disdain for his opponent. Although the current situation involved some trickery, the opponent had indeed reached the level of a disciple from the Five-Colored Clans.

Moreover... due to his earlier underestimation and the opposing nature of their attributes, he was now quite passive.

With this in mind, he no longer held anything back, pulling out a White Jade Vial from his bosom and gently tipping it over. A clear, transparent liquid flowed out, as limpid as water yet also viscous. Chen Ying, hovering in mid-air, furrowed her brows tightly.

With her current sensitivity to attributes, she recognized almost immediately that the liquid... was metal!

White Tiger is associated with metal, wielding the anomalous ability of wind and metal. Now that the Void Mulberry Tree is about to dry up the air, was the opponent about to use his remaining tactics?

As she thought this, a huge chill suddenly rose in her heart. Without a moment’s hesitation, Chen Ying activated another Spatial Array on her body and vanished from the spot. The moment she disappeared, the place where she had been was neatly sliced into two halves, along with the light and shadows!

Appearing not far away in an instant, she saw that scene and broke out in a cold sweat.

The outsiders, watching, were baffled. What was happening here?

Why did Zhou Yuntao’s pouring out a blob of liquid and flicking his finger result in such might?

It felt... as if anything in the world could be split in two.

Even Chen Qing was taken aback.

"That is...."

"Does His Highness the King of Qin know what that is?" Chen Baifeng asked curiously.

Frankly, with so many experts gathered in this trial, he suddenly felt fortunate that his own younger son had encountered Bai Su and was able to escape unscathed. Otherwise, facing either one of the freaks present, a single careless move might have cost his life.

"Kang Gold!" Chen Qing inhaled sharply.

However, his heart was puzzled. Just how many secrets did Yundu hold? Why would the fourth version of Kang Gold exist here? How did they obtain the material that could only be refined after the death of Otherworldly Demon Statues?

The enemy held only a small amount, but it was already deadly enough. He hadn’t expected Chen Ying to encounter this stuff. Combined with the White Tiger Sorcery, darn, it’s a perfect match...

An expression of concern appeared on Chen Qing’s face for a moment.

Meanwhile, Chen Ying was also full of wariness. For the first time, she truly felt danger emanating from her opponent.

"A very cautious woman indeed," Zhou Yuntao looked up at Chen Ying not far away, clapping his hands and said, "The reports say that you don’t have much practical combat experience, but it seems that the reports aren’t entirely accurate. Your experience is more sufficient than I imagined."

Chen Ying, however, shook her head, "Your intelligence isn’t wrong. Indeed, I don’t have much fighting experience, but because I lack it, I’ve prepared a lot. After all, in battle, a single mistake can cost one’s life."

"Hahahaha..." Zhou Yuntao laughed heartily upon hearing this, "I find you more and more interesting."

He looked around. The Void Mulberry Tree was absorbing the air rapidly; probably in no more than twenty breaths, this space would become a vacuum. In such a case, his Wind Technique would practically become non-existent.

Kang Gold is very sharp, but its ability to form cutting edges for long-distance damage still relies on Wind Technique. In an aerated space, it can be controlled freely, but in a vacuum, he surely couldn’t wield this thing like a warrior in battle.

What should he do?

Zhou Yuntao pondered rapidly. His opportunities for offense were limited. Should he try to destroy the surrounding Formation or choose to attack the master of the Array directly?

If he aimed to destroy the Formation and failed, he would completely lose the chance for a final battle with his opponent, and that would be a rather ugly defeat. If he directly struck his opponent, who knew how many life-saving Arrays she still had up her sleeve?

Once she dragged out these twenty breaths of time, he... would become butchers’ meat on a cutting board, there for the taking.

He certainly knew about the Azure Dragon Sorcery, once the Void Mulberry Tree formed a vacuum, Heavenly Punishment Clouds would form. According to the records, the second phase of Azure Dragon Sorcery, and its might in the Thunder Technique, was even above that of the Kirin Sorcery from the Ziyi Family!

What to do?

Attack the person, or the Formation?

Zhou Yuntao tentatively raised his hand toward the front, and a row of huge Void Mulberry Trees was instantly sliced into two halves, but in the next instant, a green light rose from below, and green buds rapidly grew at the cut sections of the Void Mulberry Trees and quickly shot up, reaching their original height in the span of two breaths.

These Void Mulberry Trees not only could absorb the air, but they were also a prison for trapping people...

The Formation below must be extremely profound, even if one were to directly slice up the entire ground around, it may not necessarily break this Formation, after all, since the opponent has set up this Formation, it won’t be that easily destroyed, there must be some trick to it. Engaging in a battle of wits and courage in this respect was not worth it.

After all, he was not known for his skill in Formations.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yuntao had figured out the crux and, without hesitation, charged at the person. Using his adept Wind Technique, he made the air deplete even faster. Zhou Yuntao knew he didn’t have much time; if he couldn’t take down the opponent in one or two moves, the one to lose... would certainly be him!

So this time he held nothing back, combining the liquid metal in his hand into a blade and approached at lightning speed in the manner of a Warrior.

At full power, Zhou Yuntao’s speed was unbelievably fast. Even Zhang Zhiyun, an observer from outside, felt it was a bit hard to see clearly.

If one were not prepared in advance and got ambushed by the White Tiger Sorcery, it would indeed be troublesome.

But even with such speed, he still failed to touch Chen Ying. The sharp blade pierced through was a residual image left in the space.

"You’re faster than Senior Murong..." Chen Ying, whose location was somehow already at a far distance below, looked up at Zhou Yuntao who was floating in the air and said, "But not by much. I’ve been trained by Senior Murong several times, endured much hardship. With this distance, unless you can double your speed, you can’t prevent me from using spatial teleportation to react."

"I don’t need to..." Zhou Yuntao gave a faint smile. "Hasn’t anyone told you? Spatial teleportation... leaves traces."

Chen Ying was momentarily stunned, then immediately realized that the blade in the opponent’s hand was nowhere to be seen!

And after carefully sensing around, she instantly discovered that the airflow in this space was depleting more than expected. At this rate, it should take at least ten breaths for this space to become a vacuum. But now, it seemed that in less than three breaths, the area was about to be voided.

A portion of the wind... had disappeared!

Where had it gone?

Chen Ying’s heart suddenly leapt with shock... could it be...

The next instant, from countless marked seals around her, windswept blades emerged from every direction, chaotic and tricky in angle, making it impossible to tell where they were coming from.

Chen Ying knew that those terrifying metallic wind blades came from her own teleportation Array marks.

Her Array, with markers set up in advance, had at least a hundred interconnected ports, intricate and crisscrossing, enabling her to move to any position with a mere thought, as the entire teleportation space was interconnected.

This interconnected Spatial Array allowed her to teleport to any marked point at will, but it had one flaw — if an entry point was exploited by the opponent, just like now, all marked points could become the opponent’s weapon.

Like finding a rabbit hole and flooding it with water, if one point was discovered, the rest would be rendered useless in no time.

Without this teleportation space, faced with the opponent’s speed and the sharpness of that blade, Chen Ying knew she wouldn’t last a breath!

It seemed... she had no escape...
