Chapter 686 - 610: Fierce Battle, Anomaly_2
Not long after, a large number of traitors surged in with smoke and dust, approaching Black Stone City.
The human cultivators stationed on the city walls saw this scene and hurriedly ran in one direction along the stairs.
Not far away, a large number of cultivators soared into the sky and landed on the city walls.
Above the city gate, Qin An, Bai Lingfeng, and others stood gazing at the densely packed figures ahead, frowning collectively.
They had been waiting here for a day, during which they made extremely thorough preparations, and the fact that the enemy actually arrived as promised today made them feel a hint of doubt.
After all, according to Hei Feng’s words, coupled with their speculation, the enemy must have some secrets.
But now, being so direct might mean that they want to cover up something.
The crowd ahead had already stopped.
Mufang and Earth Five Stars exchanged a glance.
Mufang stepped forward, and a voice filled with icy killing intent slowly spoke from Mufang’s mouth.
"Where is that little brat Qin An? Come forward quickly to die! If he dies, you can all live, but if you resist stubbornly, not only will Qin An die, but none of you will survive!"
The icy killing intent, like a cold wave, entered the ears of every cultivator in Black Stone City.
Many cultivators gripped their weapons tightly, solemn expressions on their faces, extremely tense.
Qin An squinted his eyes and said indifferently, "Didn’t three Forbidden Areas come in this time? Why are only you two leaders here?"
This situation was obvious at a glance, Mufang and Earth Five Stars were unusual.
But only two leaders from the Forbidden Areas were present, and Qin An felt something was amiss.
Mufang sneered, "We alone are enough to kill you. Why do we need more people? You are just a little Tripod Aspiration Realm, how could you stir up any storms?"
Qin An said indifferently, "There are many people who want to kill me nowadays, but they are all already dead. I will give you a chance too. Kneel down now and kowtow a few times. Perhaps I will mercifully spare you."
These words made Mufang’s expression extremely ugly.
They were all leaders of large Forbidden Areas, with extremely noble status.
Moreover, they had defected to the Heavenly Demon, becoming traitors, considering their status even more noble, usually paying no heed to anyone but other traitors.
Yet, now Qin An was mocking them with words, and the anger in their hearts was soaring.
Earth Five Stars patted Mufang’s shoulder and said, "We gave them a path to live, and they didn’t want it, so the only path left for them is death. We don’t have much time, let’s start the battle directly."
Mufang sneered and shouted, "Everyone, listen! Kill these stubborn fools with no one left! Moreover, whoever can take Qin An’s head, I will truthfully report their merit to the Celestial Demon Envoy, and there will be great rewards in the future!"
Although only two Forbidden Areas came, they brought along a group of Black Demon’s subordinates.
This large group of traitors, the lowest among them were those who had just reached the Tripod Aspiration Realm, therefore the sense of oppression they brought was extremely terrifying.
As soon as Mufang said this, the traitors present raised their weapons and shouted loudly.
"Kill! Kill Qin An!"
"No one take Qin An’s head from me, I want to remove it personally!"
"Qin An must die! The traitors will surely win!"
With just one sentence, morale was stirred up.
Mufang didn’t say any more, turned around and pointed to Black Stone City, said, "Attack now!"
The goals of both sides were very clear, so when they could not continue to talk, the battle rapidly spread at a visible speed.
Many cultivators leaped out of the crowd, including forces from the human side, as well as Defenders and the Evil Extermination Bureau.
The battlefield was the open space ahead.
Both sides quickly engaged in a fierce fight.
Mufang and Earth Five Stars were just about to make a move when several figures descended from the sky.
Bai Lingfeng, Ji Wuyou, and Zhou Yun together with Hei Feng all attacked toward the two of them.
The principle of catching the ringleader first was understood by everyone, so they attacked with full force.
Mufang sneered, then terrible and thick tree roots rose from behind him, fighting three Forbidden Land Golden Envoys, Bai Lingfeng and the others, one against three.
The branches all over his body kept swinging, with bursts of terrifying wind sounds, not falling behind for the time being.
On the other side, Earth Five Stars’ body was covered with an earth-yellow light, facing the besiegement of Zhou Yun and Hei Feng, equally unafraid.
The two of them were at the top level even among large Forbidden Areas, and picked by the Celestial Demon Envoy, hence their strength was extremely high.
The battlefield gradually turned stalemated, with neither side able to gain an advantage.
At this moment, Qin An stood on the city wall of Black Stone City, frowning tightly.
He always felt there was some secret, and the uneasiness in his heart magnified infinitely.
Especially thinking about the fact that a leader of a large Forbidden Area had not appeared, he felt there might be more tricks behind this.
However, after standing on the city wall thinking for a while, Qin An did not think further.
In this situation, one more person means one more helper, he did not hesitate.
"Clang!"
A clear sound rang out.
Qin An descended from the sky, landing in the middle of the battlefield.
As Qin An landed in the battlefield, several traitors immediately looked at him with gleaming eyes and charged toward him.
Qin An swept his gaze calmly, driving his Blade Skill to the utmost.
Every gleam of cold light passed, a traitor’s head would rise high.
But there were too many traitors here, and more and more surrounded Qin An.
Numerous Defenders also acted upon seeing this, joining Qin An to resist the enemy.
At this moment, the situation on the battlefield became more complex, like a mire, drawing people deeply in.
But as time passed, the traitors gradually fell into decline.
Especially Mufang and Earth Five Stars, although they could fight multiple people at once without losing, as time went on, their energy gradually depleted.
Mufang and Earth Five Stars’ foreheads were covered in cold sweat, beginning to retreat under the siege of Bai Lingfeng and the others.
But their expressions remained calm, as if having some backing.
This scene did not escape Qin An’s eyes.
After Qin An struck back several traitors, the uneasiness in his eyes grew stronger.
He felt like a colossal plot was looming over him, but the current situation was so intense that he couldn’t think much more.
At this moment, Mufang and Earth Five Stars were already covered in multiple wounds, like a lone boat swaying in the vast sea.
Bai Lingfeng seized the opportunity and shouted, "Kill them!"
The remaining experts besieging them all unleashed their Secret Techniques, surging toward the two like waves.
Mufang shouted loudly, with tree roots spinning rapidly, forming a giant net of intertwined wood, hurriedly blocking in front.
Earth Five Stars raised his hands, and a solid, steel-like earthen wall immediately appeared on the ground.
Then a terrifying roar sounded.
Both the tree roots and the earthen wall exploded and vanished.
The two were blown back hundreds of meters by the explosive aftermath, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths.
Bai Lingfeng and the others seized the chance, intending to strike again.
But at that moment, something unusual suddenly occurred.
In the distant sky, a brilliant light suddenly burst forth, swiftly dissipating the dark clouds.
As the white light appeared, a feeling of apprehension surged in everyone’s hearts.
Especially Qin An, who felt a mysterious tugging force spreading as the white light appeared.
Soon after, he noticed the surrounding scenery appeared to change.
Black Stone City was gone, the brutal battlefield vanished, and everything around him turned into a vast white expanse.
At this moment, Qin An sensed those figures had also disappeared.
Not far ahead, a figure was slowly solidifying.
