Urban Invincible Overlord-Chapter 1251 - 1248: Soul Binding Rope’s First Defeat
In front of the Barrier Array of Penglai Immortal Mountain, thirty-seven elite Middle Late Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Southern Domain immediately sensed Yang Fei and others suddenly rushing out from the back of the mountain.
As if they had anticipated this, these thirty-seven people showed no signs of panic. A cultivator at the Peak of Late-stage Foundation Establishment within the group stated steadily, "Proceed as planned."
The others nodded.
Instantly, twenty-five people rushed forward.
Among them, thirteen cultivators at the Peak of Late-stage Foundation Establishment were at the forefront, six from the Great Dao Sect. These six moved in unison, forming a Six Changes Formation, wielding their magic swords and instantly forming a combined Sword Array.
The remaining seven were cultivators from Flame Moon Sect, forming the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
Another twelve Foundation Establishment Cultivators came from the Fengtai Feng Family, Sunset Island Zhong Family, and Qingchuan He Family.
Their eyes gleamed with sharp murderous intent, wielding magic swords while quietly preparing all sorts of offensive talismans and magic treasures bestowed upon them by their family elders for this operation.
While twenty-five people confronted the Earth Cultivators, the remaining twelve remained calm, quickly dispersing into groups of three, forming four teams stationed at the four positions around this Barrier Wall.
Subsequently, they formed hand seals, and with the combined effort of four in each group, they finally unleashed a Divine Grade ’Array Breaking Talisman.’
These four Divine Grade Array Breaking Talismans were secretly purchased at a high price by the Flame Moon Sect, Great Dao Sect, and the three major Cultivation Families, specifically to break the Barrier Array enveloping the Penglai Immortal Mountain in Earth Space.
The sole purpose: to release the massive number of demon beasts trapped here on Earth.
Upon discovering that these Southern Domain cultivators intended to destroy the Barrier Array, Yang Fei and others rushed forward immediately.
Soon, they realized the enemy had split into two factions, with over twenty experts directly engaging them, while the remaining dozen continued tampering with the Barrier Array.
The Penglai Immortal Mountain was vast, and despite all being Foundation Establishment Cultivators able to tread upon the air at immense speeds, it took them several minutes to finally clash.
Having noticed that the opponents seemed to form a formation, Yang Fei dared not be careless and charged forward holding the Soul Binding Rope.
Confronting him was the Beidou Seven Stars Formation of the Flame Moon Sect.
As soon as Yang Fei entered their attack range, the two leaders unhesitatingly hurled their flying swords.
The two flying swords formed a pincer movement, lightning-fast, aiming to block Yang Fei’s path.
Yang Fei’s pupils narrowed slightly, these two were incredibly strong, and their flying swords were too fast.
He didn’t dare act recklessly. His figure flickered as he used instant teleportation to evade the two swords, appearing ten meters in front of the two Flame Moon Sect vanguard cultivators in an instant.
Swoosh!
Amidst a sharp whistling, the Soul Binding Rope in Yang Fei’s hand lashed towards them.
The two Flame Moon Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators were startled.
Before coming, the elders of their sect had thoroughly briefed them on all information about Yang Fei.
They knew that Yang Fei had a Soul Binding Rope, capable of seizing the divine soul, just like Master Li Yang’s Glazed Soul-Seizing Banner.
Moreover, they knew Yang Fei could teleport short distances, but according to their information, his teleportation wasn’t very far, not exceeding a hundred and eighty meters at most.
Yet, just now, Yang Fei had suddenly crossed a distance exceeding a hundred and fifty meters, almost reaching them directly, capable of instantly killing both.
Damn it, the information is wrong, this guy’s teleportation range is further than reported.
Both were secretly alarmed, yet a silver Light Shield appeared simultaneously on their bodies.
"Crack, crack!"
The Soul Binding Rope struck the silver Light Shield in front of the two, and the shield instantly dimmed, shattering from the lash.
However, the physical attack of the Soul Binding Rope was also blocked by these two Light Shields.
Yang Fei felt a weak current surge through his hand, and his heart jumped in shock. Upon closer inspection, he saw that not only were the two unscathed by the Soul Binding Rope, but even their divine souls were hardly affected. Their faces merely showed a ghastly pallor, with slightly terrified expressions.
Just then, the whistling of five flying swords pierced the air, striking towards Yang Fei with precision and speed.
Yang Fei was both astonished and terrified.
Since acquiring the Soul Binding Rope, this was the first time it had failed.
The Soul Binding effect of the Soul Binding Rope was ineffective against those two just now?
How could this be?
These two were clearly only at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Besides, he was now at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, with significantly enhanced Divine Soul Thought Power, making the Soul Binding Rope even more formidable. Would any Foundation Establishment Cultivator withstand a single lash from him?
Amidst his panic, Yang Fei’s figure vanished from the spot.
Something was wrong this time.
Not only could the enemy withstand the attack effect of his Soul Binding Rope, but these seven vaguely formed a formation, and if he were to fall into it, he’d be shredded by the Sword Array. The unexplainable fear and sense of crisis urged him to retreat swiftly.
The flying swords of the five Flame Moon Sect experts missed as they lost their target, Yang Fei.
In the next instant, Yang Fei retreated to the Earth Camp.
"Everyone, be cautious! This guy’s teleportation ability seems much stronger than Wu You and Zhuo Donglai mentioned," shouted a person from the Flame Moon Sect.
On the other side, just as Yang Fei returned, Lu Chen’s voice entered his ears: "Yang, these people came prepared. They should be carrying ’Soul Suppressing Talismans,’ and high-rank ones at that. Wearing these talismans firmly anchors their Primordial Spirit Souls inside, preventing them from being captured by external Soul Capturing Treasures."
Li Yue said solemnly: "It’s Li Huai from the Flame Moon Sect and Zhao Youde and others. These seven are old hands among the Flame Moon Sect Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators and have cultivated the Beidou Seven Stars Sword Formation together. Their combined power can trap even an Early-stage Core Formation expert for a while."
Du Hui also said with a grave expression: "Mo Hongtao and others from the Great Dao Sect are here too, and their Six Changes Sword Formation is no less powerful than the Flame Moon Sect’s Beidou Seven Stars Sword Formation."
Gan Qian said: "The experts from the other three major Cultivation Families are here too. Everyone, we must be cautious, as these Southern Domain cultivators have come fully prepared."
With these reminders from several Lingxiao Sect members, the Earth side felt a weight in their hearts and immediately became alert.
Initially, they indeed somewhat underestimated these opponents from the Southern Domain Cultivation World, but now, seeing Yang Fei’s attack miss and hearing the Lingxiao Sect members speak so seriously, they quickly dismissed their underestimation and dared not neglect.
Seeing Yang Fei retreat, the Earth cultivators didn’t swarm forward again, nor did the Southern Domain people advance.
Their main objective was to destroy the Barrier Array of Penglai Immortal Mountain and release the massive demon beasts trapped inside, leaving the Earth Cultivation World too busy to cope. In doing so, the Southern Domain cultivators could seize the opportunity to invade.
Thus, since Yang Fei and the others didn’t attack, they weren’t in a hurry to act either. Their mission was simply to hold Yang Fei and others at bay, allowing the twelve behind them enough time to destroy the Barrier Array.
