Chapter 346 - 145: Unquenchable Desire, a Breakthrough with Dao Talismans! Trampling the Branch Sect

But he only retreated a single step before his face flushed red. With another long roar, he swung his sword and charged.

For a moment, Sword Qi surged like a tide!

WHOOSH!

Inside the main hall, Cui Yanliang, his clothes in tatters, dodged and weaved, but he was taking a pathetic beating.

There was no small number of Daoists in this Gui Chen Sect branch, and quite a few of them were powerful Cultivators who had broken through to the Nine Tribulations Realm.

Although most of the Gui Chen Sect Daoists were focused on their frenzied assault on Jin Yunfeng, the pressure on him was still immense.

BANG!

A moment later, Cui Yanliang was sent flying several dozen yards. He crashed through a decorative rockery and, like a meteorite, slammed deep into the white jade floor below. He gritted his teeth in pain, his body covered in blood.

But he didn’t even have time to cry out in pain before he had to dodge again, narrowly avoiding a Copper Tripod plummeting from the sky.

BOOM!

Instantly, dust and smoke billowed up. Scattered rubble shot out in all directions, whistling through the air and peppering the nearby rockeries, walls, and corridors, leaving them riddled with holes.

THUMP!

From within the thick, foggy dust, a burly Daoist emerged, shouldering a massive Copper Tripod. He bellowed:

"You damned old coot, is dodging all you know how to do!?"

Cui Yanliang was in no state to reply. He scrambled to avoid the flying debris, cursing his luck internally:

’Senior, if you don’t get here soon, they’re going to kill me!’

"You damn little rat!"

Watching Cui Yanliang continue to dodge, the burly Daoist sneered. He leaped dozens of yards into the air, raised the Copper Tripod high, and then brought it crashing down.

BOOM!

The Copper Tripod expanded as it fell, and in the space of a breath or two, it was already the size of a house and weighed countless tons!

As it plunged downward, the terrifying force of its descent instantly displaced the air, creating a rolling shockwave on either side.

For a moment, the air itself seemed to part like the sea. An explosive crack and a sonic boom rang out at the exact same instant!

It was like a sudden clap of thunder splitting the heavens!

Even dozens of yards away, the violent air currents were already shattering the ground.

"Relentless bastard!"

After being beaten black and blue and then relentlessly mocked, Cui Yanliang finally snapped. He hardened his resolve and, surprisingly, stopped running.

BANG!

He slammed his feet into the ground. His spine coiled and sprang like a Dragon as he leaped high into the air, actually charging head-on toward the descending Copper Tripod!

"Hm!?"

The burly Daoist was stunned for a moment, but then he sneered.

"You’ve got a death wish!"

RUMBLE!

The tripod fell, cracking the air like a bolt of lightning.

A rolling shockwave completely engulfed Cui Yanliang’s frail figure.

He was confident this one blow was enough to pulverize the body of any Cultivator beneath the Nine Tribulations.

But in the next instant, his expression changed.

Just as the giant tripod was about to crash down on Cui Yanliang, it stopped dead in mid-air, as if held aloft by an invisible, colossal hand.

’This is bad!’

The burly Daoist’s heart skipped a beat.

Before his eyes, the giant tripod was slowly lifted away. Then he saw it: a small paper figure, crafted from a sheet of yellow paper, being torn to shreds by the air currents.

BOOM!

In the next instant, golden radiances suddenly flared up on the ground and in mid-air.

He glanced around and only then did he realize that, at some unknown point, countless Dao Talismans had appeared, floating in every direction.

"I..."

The burly Daoist’s heart trembled. He only had time to yank the giant tripod in front of him as a shield.

Before being completely engulfed by the myriad of Daoist Skills that erupted from the overwhelming flood of Dao Talismans!

The Level of these Dao Talismans wasn’t particularly high, but their sheer, overwhelming number was impossible to withstand.

"AHHHH!!!"

With an earth-shattering scream, the giant tripod instantly shattered, exploding into a million pieces.

Before the big man’s scream could even fade, his entire body had been blasted into a bloody mist of flesh and gore.

"Junior Brother!!"

Immediately, an enraged roar echoed.

Among the Gui Chen Sect Daoists besieging Jin Yunfeng, one saw this and his eyes nearly burst from their sockets, his heart filled with a maddening hatred.

WHOOSH!

Cui Yanliang landed on his feet. He took a single, ragged breath, not even sparing the scene a glance.

He turned and bolted!

Because as the roar faded, an overwhelming wave of sword light was already sweeping toward him!

An unknown number of Gui Chen Sect Daoists were charging toward him, their killing intent chillingly palpable.

’If I don’t run now, I’m a dead man!’

Cui Yanliang frantically shook his robes, scattering the Dao Talismans he had spent all this time frantically creating as if they were worthless.

Amidst the clash of sword light and Dao Talismans, he sprinted for his life, drawing furious roars from the Gui Chen Sect Daoists in pursuit.

"You killed my junior brother! I’ll hunt you to the ends of the earth to make you pay with your life!"

The Daoist rode his sword light in furious, whistling pursuit.

Suddenly, he shuddered and came to a halt.

He saw the pathetic, fleeing old Daoist suddenly turn around and head back, a smug look on his face.

And behind the old Daoist...

A young man in a white robe was striding forward, stepping into the main hall.

VMMMM!

In that instant, it was as if heaven and earth were split by a single line, and light itself became his raiment.

The pursuing Daoist froze, stunned. In a daze, it seemed to him that he was seeing...

Heaven and earth themselves were subjects, bowing their heads in submission.

And this man was their sovereign, striding forth.

And as the white-robed youth drew closer, step by step...

In his vision, heaven and earth vanished. Light and color faded. Everything ceased to exist.

There was only this man, commanding his entire field of vision!
