Urban Undying Lord-Chapter 1453 - 1472: Fallen Into the Trap!

"What a formidable array!"

Ye Xuan merely glanced and immediately saw that a great formation protected the stone platform. Moreover, this formation was indeed extremely terrifying; without the correct method to activate it, attempting to forcibly break it would certainly trigger an extremely dreadful backlash and attract people from the Beiming Sect.

However, despite the might of the Beiming Swallowing Heaven Array, Ye Xuan was unimpressed. Though this array may seem extremely difficult to resolve in the eyes of outsiders, one should not forget that Ye Xuan had traversed the Chaos Trials and possessed a grandmaster-level mastery over formations.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

All laws are limitless, star patterns sparkling; a beam of starlight manifested in Ye Xuan’s hand, with strands of unfathomable energies emerging, gradually invading the stone platform where the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron was placed.

Pop—pop—pop!

The stone platform gently trembled, its sound barely audible, as strands of cold light flashed across it. The revered sect’s array was effortlessly broken by Ye Xuan.

The ease with which the array was broken surprised even Ye Xuan. He faintly sensed something amiss, for his journey had been too smooth, and a sense of unease had begun to take root in his heart.

Thud!

Ye Xuan stepped forward, half his body entering the different dimension space. His hand was only a foot away from the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron; once his whole body entered the space, he could grasp the cauldron.

"Something’s wrong!"

The next moment, Ye Xuan was jolted with shock, his scalp tingling, because his soul trembled, and a deep unease suddenly burgeoned.

Retreat!

Ye Xuan was not blinded by greed; he quickly pulled back his half-entered body, then abruptly turned to look behind him.

"Daoist, why don’t you take it?"

A sinister voice echoed from a corner, and from the shadows emerged a figure, none other than the Beiming Sect Leader.

At this moment, ripples shimmered across the surrounding void, and four Elders emerged from it, encircling Ye Xuan in the northeast, southeast, northwest, southwest positions.

Trapped!

Ye Xuan’s eyes were dark and brooding, the Heavenly Burial Light enveloping him. A self-mocking smile spread across his lips; he hadn’t expected to fall into a trap.

Greedy, too greedy; truly, he was far too greedy!

Ye Xuan sighed helplessly, realizing he should have noticed long ago that his infiltration into the Beiming Divine Palace was too smooth, so smooth it faced no hindrance.

In truth, all was part of the Beiming Sect Leader’s plan; it was meant to lure him out. Yet Ye Xuan’s strong desire for the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron led him into the opponent’s trap.

Logically, such a simple scheme should never have duped Ye Xuan, but greed had clouded his mind, prompting his reckless act.

However, from this event, Ye Xuan learned a lesson; greed indeed could prove perilous. Next time, Ye Xuan swore he would not be so rash.

"Daoist, I’ve awaited you here at the Beiming Divine Palace for quite some time. Will you surrender willingly, or shall this Sect Leader capture you personally?" The Beiming Sect Leader’s voice dripped with threat.

"Even if I choose to leave, you won’t be able to stop me," Ye Xuan replied equally darkly.

"Heh heh."

The Beiming Sect Leader chuckled sinisterly. "I must admit, Daoist’s prowess is truly astounding. The four Elders failed to detect your infiltration, and even I almost couldn’t sense your arrival. Nonetheless, I have long laid prohibitions within this Beiming Divine Palace; escape is impossible for you."

"Tell me, who exactly are you?" The Great Elder thundered.

"Surrender willingly, or face soul scattering," the Second Elder threatened.

"Beiming Sect indeed holds some ability, but unfortunately for you, the Tongming Sect is already targeting you. You are already struggling to protect yourselves, yet you wish to confine me?" Ye Xuan laughed coldly, his entire form shrouded in mist, making the Beiming Sect Leader unable to discern his true identity.

"You speak too much; stay here,"

Boom!

Beiming Cold Light, Immortal Power; the Beiming Sect Leader unleashed his full cultivation. As one who had opened the third Heavenly Gate, his strike exerted tremendous pressure on Ye Xuan.

"Afraid? Hardly!"

Boom!

Ye Xuan fiercely launched a punch; this strike had no reservation due to his urgent need to escape, avoiding any prolonged battle with the Beiming Sect Leader.

Bam!

Ah!

Both punched simultaneously; Ye Xuan was knocked back, spewing a mouthful of blood, as the Beiming Sect Leader’s impressive combat power far exceeded Ye Xuan’s.

The gap was too vast, like heaven and earth!

Even with his formidable combat power, Ye Xuan who was merely in the Wendao Realm faced a much greater realm advantage by the Beiming Sect Leader. Just one blow had left him at a severe disadvantage.

"You’re actually not in the Immortal Realm?"

In an instant, the Beiming Sect Leader spoke in horror, eyes filled with disbelief toward Ye Xuan.

All along, the Beiming Sect Leader assumed Ye Xuan was of the Immortal Realm; otherwise, Ye Xuan could never possess such skill in infiltrating the Beiming Sect, nor display such confidence.

But that recent strike made the Beiming Sect Leader realize that while Ye Xuan’s combat power was comparably terrifying to Immortals, his cultivation aura was merely of the Wendao Three Realm, leaving the Beiming Sect Leader astounded.

Go!

As the Beiming Sect Leader froze briefly, Ye Xuan leveraged the force from the opponent’s punch, and shot towards the Beiming Divine Palace’s gate, using the Power of Space-Time to escape quickly from the Beiming Sect.

"Stop him," 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Rapidly awakening, the Beiming Sect Leader shouted fiercely, and the four Elders, without needing the Sect Leader’s command, had already blocked the exit, unleashing four Immortal Techniques to suppress Ye Xuan.

Before him lay four Immortal Realm Elders, and behind him stood the immensely powerful Beiming Sect Leader who had opened the third Heavenly Gate, plunging Ye Xuan into grave peril.

"Get out of my way!"

Boom!

Ye Xuan’s entire body shook, concurrently activating the Fa Character Technique and Tribulation Immortal Transformation. His aura surged greatly, unleashing a Heavenly Burial Technique aiming to knock the four Immortal Elders away.

Bam!

Thunderous echoes resonated, the palace trembled; Ye Xuan clashed with the four Immortals, both parties retreating violently. Blood trickled down Ye Xuan’s mouth, as he was thrown backward.

Too difficult, terribly difficult!

The joint strike of four Immortals, even with Ye Xuan invoking the Fa Character Technique and Tribulation Immortal Transformation, couldn’t repel them. The disparity in realm and cultivation was so vast that secret techniques could never bridge it.

"Daoist, you cannot escape,"

Boom!

The Beiming Sect Leader launched his attack, the Beiming Divine Light bearing down, transforming into a Sealing Seal crashing towards Ye Xuan. If struck, Ye Xuan would suffer grave injuries, even if he didn’t perish.

"Time!"

At the critical juncture, the Power of Space-Time activated; Ye Xuan narrowly dodged the Beiming Sect Leader’s suppressing strike, eliciting a dramatic change in his expression.

"Are you from the Space-Time Divine Palace?"

The Beiming Sect Leader bellowed in shock, though leader of the Northern Territory, how could he fail to recognize the Power of Space-Time?
