Chapter 1028 Lament of Sorrow

When the plague swept over, Yin Wang exerted all his strength, and the rules of decline also swept in, continuously consuming the power of the plague and spiritual energy.

At the same time, Yan Shi launched a furious attack.

The sudden maneuver caught him off guard. Underneath the surging tide, a massive force struck him instantaneously, sending Yin Wang flying, spurting a mouthful of fresh blood. Even more terrifying, his whole body split into bloodlines.

Rule of Division!

This was Yin Wang reacting in time and using decline to resist for a while, otherwise, just the rule of division would have severely injured him.

Another tyrannical rule.

His decline was continuous, but the opponent’s was instantaneous. In some sense, in mutual attacks, he absolutely suffered a loss.

Unless their strengths were equal, that would be a different situation, over a long battle, decline would definitely defeat him.

But now, the opponent could play him to death, and that was with two people.

"Combining attack!"

He suddenly shouted again, the two gigantic mechanism dharma aspects emitted a piercing screech, instantly overlapping and constantly changing forms, the next moment they also transformed into a giant fortress.

The pitch-black fortress, like a ferocious beast, gradually opened its fangs. As countless black cannon barrels extended out, suddenly they fired all at once, like countless rays of light bursting forth.

Just witnessing this formation startled both Yan Jiu and the other person.

How could there be such a powerful magical artifact?

Yin Wang sneered, this was his confidence in daring to take risks here.

Why was it so formidable? Naturally, it was because four Divine Dao Realm masters were inside!

Hun Bugui and Shi Xiu were in one, while Sect Leader Piaomiao and Sect Leader Xingyue were in another. Now, the two combined, along with hundreds of Walking the Dao cultivators, it was normal to be able to threaten the opponent.

After all, this was another major innovation of Mo Xiuwen.

With combined strength, even a common Initial Realm cultivator could confront ordinary Faceless Ones.

As for Divine Dao Realm cultivators, they were now in such a state that they could even intimidate Yan Jiu and Yan Shi.

He did not expect to kill the two with this, but as long as he could hold them off, his goal would be achieved.

Thinking of this, he flipped around and swiftly approached the fortress. As both struck simultaneously, in an instant, the sky collapsed, and the sun and moon lost their colors.

...

Yan San was now quite injured, intending to come over and kill Wujiu, but unexpectedly, he was struck back instead.

Not only did he fail to succeed, but he also got trapped.

He immediately thought of his previous humiliating experience, fearing that Han Yu might suddenly appear and catch him off guard again.

Even more terrified that guy would create another huge explosion and take him out right away.

He never thought divine techniques could exert such terrifying power, it was simply the nemesis of vitality.

If he didn’t know that the rule of destruction was on the other side, he might suspect that Han Yu was the one who took the rule of destruction.

Not a rule, but its power surpassed even rules.

Thus, his first thought was to retreat, as long as he could go back and bring another person, not a single one of this group would escape alive.

Wujiu saw through his intentions and immediately confronted him under pressure.

Facing this "human" sandbag, Yan San became furious, further suspecting that Han Yu was lying in ambush, causing him greater panic.

With Yan San’s heart in chaos, it actually gave the other side an even bigger advantage, retreating step by step under a storm of blows, while Wujiu risked his life to intercept the opponent’s counterattack.

Meanwhile, Yan Si on the other side faced the same situation, and it was even more frustrating.

If he had known it would be like this, he would have switched positions with Yan San at all costs.

He couldn’t tell which was stronger, his rules or Jiu You’s, so he wanted to suppress the opponent with strength, but that damned fortress became an unbearable nuisance.

Especially with Jiu You occasionally fiddling with a mechanism.

He was too familiar with this thing, wasn’t it Han Yu’s device that destroyed half of him?

Now looking at this thing, he felt apprehensive, fearing Han Yu might spring out from some strange place with a stab.

Particularly after seeing Jiu You’s strange expression, he felt even more certain.

"You’re not leaving today, stay behind!"

Jiu You’s voice was full of bluff, scaring Yan Si into attempting to retreat.

The trap was set, how could they truly let him leave?

The fortress attacked in unison, and Jiu You further overturned the ground beneath with the flowing rule, stone walls spanned in front of Yan Si, blocking his path, then Jiu You personally fought him.

...

In the east.

Two fortresses simultaneously began moving, their cannons never ceased firing, exhausting the Faceless Ones in defense, while continually pushing toward the direction of the Enlightenment Forest.

In the west.

Four fortresses were similarly advancing, the first batch to approach.

Yan Yi looked at the steel beasts before him, chilling to the bone, he only spoke coldly.

"In the end, they are mere ants."

After all the effort, they only matched the tools under his command, still meaningless before him.

He even pondered, if Han Yu relied on these things to disrupt the situation, it would be too naive.

With this thought, he prepared to take action.

But before he could, a shout rang out.

"Die!"

A figure turned into an aurora, coming with a cold face, unsheathing a blade, unleashing a half-moon of cold light straight forth.

Another illusion!

"He couldn’t directly attack, it’s all fake."

Yan Yi couldn’t help but sneer, not intending to dodge.

Until the half-moon struck him, Yan Yi was stunned, Han Yu was stunned.

Neither side expected such an outcome.

Yan Yi felt the continuously plundered vitality within, shocking him while rapidly countering with his own rule.

"It’s real! Kill him!"

These rules, absolutely cannot be faked.

Han Yu really came to attack!

But even more unexpectedly, after gaining an advantage, Han Yu turned around and fled.

"I’m done playing with you."

With a mocking remark, he vanished instantly like an Aurora.

Since it was confirmed to be his true self, Yan Yi naturally wouldn’t let the opponent escape. After locking onto him, he turned and gave a command.

"Leave two, the rest follow me to intercept him."

With that, four figures simultaneously broke through the air, leaving Yan Wu and Yan Liu to continue guarding.

The fortress behemoth continued advancing, resisting dense attacks, swiftly charging towards Enlightenment Forest, and soon converged with two others.

Under the combined force of six fortresses, they broke free from the faceless ones, reaching the utmost speed.

"Courting death!"

Yan Wu sneered, as a tide of spiritual power surged forward and swept over, beginning to show a tendency to overturn with just a touch.

Yan Liu also struck at the moment of tottering, delivering another blow, causing the charging behemoth to topple to the side.

Yan Wu further applied the rule of inertia, causing the fortress behemoths to collide and crash into one place.

Thinking they had settled the stragglers, a sudden change erupted, as the behemoth exploded with countless mechanisms scattering out.

Space fissures were torn open with the explosions of the mechanisms, quickly splitting from the behemoth into countless small mechanism dharma aspects, densely covering the sky.

What are they trying to do?

Elsewhere, Han Yu felt a chilling fear in his heart.

Because observing until now, he had some guesses.

Whether it was Jiu You and Wujiu, or Yin Wang, this group had already taken four out of ten people.

The one just now should have been a soul armor, but it carried his aura.

So it was Chen Xixi’s doing, surely her false rules at work.

But that West River Slash couldn’t be fake, so the Artifact Spirit must also be involved.

Just as Yin Wang said, the entire Central Continent was hiding this layout from him.

Why hide it, perhaps the result would be achieved in a manner he couldn’t accept.

As the sky filled with flying mechanism dharma aspects, Han Yu’s heart couldn’t help but tremble.

His heart churned with tumultuous waves, his face turning ghastly pale.

He finally understood why everyone kept it from him.

They intended to clear a path with their lives, a path for him to smoothly obtain the Qi Fortune!

Han Yu’s vision blurred, as if seeing rivers of blood on the path to Enlightenment Forest.

Roars of anger filled the sky, seeming to vent dissatisfaction.

"Cultivators of the Central Continent come to die!"

Figures across the sky howled in unison, the next moment, crazily raining down like raindrops towards Enlightenment Forest.

During which, these ordinary Divine Platform cultivators were either torn to pieces by faceless ones.

Or crushed to powder in the tides of spiritual power by Yan Wu and Yan Liu, yet this massive influx stubbornly broke through layers of blockade.

When the first mechanism dharma aspect fell into Enlightenment Forest, a flash of white light shimmered, swallowing the first person without a trace.

"Arrangements are set, follow the plan."

Angry shouts sounded from the falling figures.

When the second mechanism dharma aspect fell, it spontaneously exploded before the white light appeared, immense flames spreading and intertwining with the white light.

The third, fourth... the tenth.

As mechanism dharma aspects fell into Enlightenment Forest one after another, Yan Wu and Yan Liu struggled to keep up.

It was easy to kill these ants, but completely stopping them was impossible.

The arrangements in Enlightenment Forest were an array meticulously prepared for Han Yu, unexpectedly now being repeatedly destroyed by these ants.

What surprised them more was not just the courage of these ants to face death, but also their methods.

Self-destruction was no longer satisfying them, as subsequent dharma aspects fell, instead of fire, they tore open space with fissures.

The black abyss ripped apart everything of the array, also tearing their bodies.

Hundreds, thousands.

The earth’s tremors never ceased, the figures in the void were almost entirely gone.

When the last figures fell, Enlightenment Forest fell silent, littered with broken limbs and remains.

"The arrangements here have failed."

A cultivator wept with joy.

They succeeded.

Yet they also reached a dead end, as countless faceless ones chased relentlessly.

"I heard, Emperor Han loves to gamble with his life?"

A cultivator suddenly chuckled, speaking while taking out a small trinket.

"Perhaps it’s a long-standing tradition in Central Continent."

A laughing cultivator echoed, also taking one out.

In the next moment, massive fissures not only swallowed them but also took with them dozens of nearby faceless ones.

As all the auras disappeared one by one, Han Yu’s heart grew colder, feeling an icy chill even in his unmatched physical form.

All dead!

Not a single one was left!

For the first time, a madness to tear everything apart was birthed within him.

In the sea of consciousness, the token trembled continuously, a voice urgently sounded.

"Presumably, it’s already a success, right?"
