Chapter 1508: 15 Attackers vs 1

Chapter 1508: Chapter 1508: 15 Attackers vs 1

Under Xia Yu’s gravity manipulation, Lanloste rapidly plummeted, quickly stabilizing mid-air before his body transformed into a phantom, charging once again in front of Pei Yan. Mobilizing source energy to maximize immunity against supernatural effects, he endured Xia Yu’s attacks, causing his armor to creak under pressure, yet his offensive momentum did not diminish as he roared and swung the longsword.

"Don’t hide behind a woman, Pei Yan! Come out and fight me like a man."

Amidst the taunts, the dragon flame swung by the longsword lashed towards Pei Yan like a fire whip. Facing such an attack, Pei Yan raised his hand to decline his companions’ offer to intervene. He stepped forward to grab the fire whip with one hand.

Bang! A dull sound echoed as Pei Yan seized the solidified fire whip, preparing to pull it into his embrace, only to find a mysterious suction force within the whip linking him firmly to Lanloste. In shock, Pei Yan immediately mobilized source energy to shatter it, but the whip remained completely unmoved by the source energy impact.

This is impossible! Pei Yan knew very well the amount of source energy within him. For Lanloste, a resurrected being, to control a source energy whip infused with dragon breath should be unable to withstand his impact. Thinking of this, he suddenly glanced upward, realizing the reason: two Saint Violet Witches and Holy Mages hidden among the crowd on the Council City side, behind the Round Table Knights and Bright Church Archbishop, stared intently at him.

Damn!

This thought had just resonated in Pei Yan’s mind when he and Lanloste simultaneously vanished from their original position. In the next second, both their figures appeared within the camp of the fourteen supreme Heavenly Dao members of the three major councils.

Seeing this, Xia Yu and the others were also taken aback. Without any hesitation, they charged straight in. In that moment, fifteen combatants from the three major councils dispersed in a circle with tacit understanding. After surrounding Pei Yan, fourteen source energy chains shot out simultaneously from four bodies, entwining around Pei Yan, immobilizing him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Consecutive explosions erupted outside the fifteen-person battle circle. This was Xia Yu and the others frantically attacking to open a gap for Pei Yan to escape. Yet, facing this intense barrage, the fifteen remained unmoved, only the seven-colored source energy protection wall at their perimeter rippled amidst the violent bombardment.

"It’s divine artifacts! Each of these fifteen possesses a divine artifact! Forming a defense wall by merging their source energy with the divine artifacts." Zheng Jia Ru realized the issue after a round of attacks and shouted in anger.

"So what? Didn’t we anticipate this? They have divine artifacts, and so do we! Break it open! We must break open a gap at all costs!"

It’s absurd! This is the Holy Land of a realm! Not to mention the resurrected Round Table Knights whose equipment in life absorbed their traits through numerous battles, revered by countless followers in later generations to ascend as divine artifacts. The remaining nine are top figures in the three major councils, whose activity causes earthquakes. It’s only normal for the councils to prepare one or multiple divine artifacts for their battle.

However, the Investigation Hall side isn’t passive either. Thanks to Pei Yan and Lin Junzhao’s harvesting efforts at the Sword Discussion Conference, each Child of Origin has at least two divine artifacts fused with themselves. Even though most artifacts belong to Pei Yan, Hu Jiu carries ones gifted by Fenrir and the Nine-tailed Fox Race.

At that moment, the five vigorously activated artifacts to attack a focal point of the fifteen-person defense circle. While those outside the circle grew red-eyed with urgency, Pei Yan within seemed relaxed. He looked at Lanloste, who had tangled and dragged him into the array, and mockingly said: "Your so-called impulsive actions were merely acting, just to get close to me and drag me into the array when I let down my guard?"

"It wasn’t acting! It was a gamble! Betting that you’d let your guard down due to my furious actions, win and you’d be dragged into our plan, lose and I’d face six Child of Origin’s attack! Such a high-stakes gamble was perfect for a resurrected soul like me, seeking death to wash away disgrace. And indeed, you’ve fallen into the trap as we wished! Pei Yan, post-advancement, you’ve become more arrogant and reckless! Today, you must pay for your actions." Lanloste said as he tightened the chains in his hand and roared.

"Pay? Then let me see how you intend to make me pay!" Pei Yan said, mobilizing all his source energy to instantly mechanize, causing the chains binding him to creak under the immense power.

"It’s useless! When fifteen Holy Mage realm people attack together, in this defense circle, all outside source energy, magic elements, space, and even divine artifacts are isolated. You can’t use Space Instant Teleportation Technique, nor any Substitution Technique to divert damage, you can only rely on yourself to withstand all our attacks." Aleister looked at Pei Yan, making various attempts in the circular array and remarked.

Hearing this, Pei Yan was slightly stunned. His confidence was based on the artifact seized from Delacuri, capable of diverting ten lethal damages. To make it work effectively, Pei Yan specifically requested from Gu Shenghui ten Blood Slaughter Celestial Calamity Legion captives, converting them into Blood Servants and binding the divine artifact puppet to them. As expected, the opposition anticipated such possibilities, directly sealing all Substitution Techniques or damage transfer methods.

From the beginning, Council City’s target was Pei Yan, knowing he was the Investigation Hall’s trump card and main initiator of this event. As long as he was killed or severely injured, thereby weakening his combat ability, the remaining Investigation Hall members would turn into a disorganized scatter with no fighting strength. Hence, the joint attack array on Pei Yan was agreed upon during prior council consultations, with numerous scenarios set for drawing Pei Yan into the array. Lanloste’s risky actions were merely one such plan.

"For fifteen Holy Mage realm masters to willingly join forces and lay an ambush for you, Pei Yan, even in death today, you can be proud!"

Urban said this, as fifteen supreme Heavenly Dao-level experts jointly launched a concentrated attack through the source energy chains, injecting their killing moves into it. Instantly, fifteen chains burst with dazzling multicolored hues: light, darkness, life, death, soul, spirit, various magical elements, unleashing this full-scale lethal strike on Pei Yan.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After the fifteen forces passed through the chains, those chains, having fulfilled their mission, could no longer withstand the savage energy and shattered inch by inch, while at the other end of the chains, fifteen rays successfully converged at one point, suddenly rising like a brilliant sun.
