"Not good!"

  Boom!

  A sound like the sky colpsing and the earth shattering echoed as Yan Jing's sword light was brutally destroyed. The crimson longsword shattered with a "bang," and the remaining force mercilessly smashed into Yan Jing.

  "Crack!"

  The sound of bones breaking resounded as Yan Jing's chest pletely caved in. He spat out a mouthful of bck blood and flew backward, crashing into the ground and leaving a rge pit, lying there like a dead dog.

  That sirike shattered all his internal ans, instantly draining his life. On Yan Jing's pale face, there was still a look of shock. He never imagihat a simple strike could break through his Profound-level martial arts and kill him.

  "You have killed a level 15 wild monster, gaining 11,000 experience points! (Level challenge bonus 100%, team reward 20%)" Xiao Long's experience bar surged signifitly.

  "How is this possible!" Xue Wuqing stared in disbelief at the se.

  Before Yan Jing made his move, he had sidered many possible outes, even if Yan Jing ossessed by a strange fme and burned alive, he wouldn't be surprised.

  But he never expected that the oppo would charge head-on and kill Yan Jing with a simple, unadorrike.

  The members of the Fire Cloud Sect were also dumbfounded.

  "Elder Xue, this person's aura is very simir to a demo. I suspect he is a beast warrior from the Beast Tami," said a white-haired elder beside him.

  Xue Wuqing suddenly realized, his eyes narrowing, and noticed a tuft of brown hair on Huang Mao's arm.

  "Indeed, a beast warrior. He must have used a secret beast transformation teique just now, which caused his power te!" Xue Wuqing said coldly.

  "But the Beast Tami is far from our sect, with no flig is. I suspect it's the Hidden Poiso, framing us to provoke a flict with the Beast Tami," Xue Wuqing recalled the two vultures he had seen earlier, his gaze growing colder.

  "Regardless, capture this person and search his soul. Any spiracy will be exposed!" the white-haired elder said.

  Xue Wuqing nodded.

  "Li brothers, I'll trouble you," Xue Wuqing said.

  "Leave it to us!" The two elders beside him cupped their hands.

  These towerful auras, sed only to Xue Wuqing in the crowd, both at the tenth level of the Qi densing Realm, and remarkably simir in appearanoher than the famous Li brothers of the Fire Cloud Sect.

  Without verbal unication, the two instantly charged out. One leaped up, aiming a palm at Huang Mao's forehead, while the other circled to the side, attag Huang Maht arm. It seemed like a feint, but iy, they were preparing a move, closely watg for any evasive maneuvers from Huang Mao, cutting off his escape.

  Their coordination was fwless, sealing off all of Huang Mao's vital points.

  Fag their pitack, Huang Mao still responded with a simple strike.

  "Pathetic!"

  Estimating the power of this strike, the Li brothers shook their heads. One aimed at the stick, while the other went straight for the face, determio kill with one blow.

  "Kid, in your life, keep your eyes open. Not every force be provoked..." The Li brothers hadn't even fihe word "crime" when their expressions suddenly froze as if they had seen something terrifying.

  "Not good!"

  "Retreat!"

  "Ah!!"

  Amidst everyone's gaze, a pierg scream rang out. A spiritual Qi bde flew from nowhere, slig through the air, severing one of the Li elder's arms, then seamlessly cutting into the other Li elder's shoulder, slig down to the waist, splitting him in half.

  "Ahhh!!"

  The bisected elder fell to the ground, his head and half his body shattered like a watermelon under Huang Mao's strike, exploding into a mess of flesh.

  "Sed brother!" Seeing this, the remaining Li elder's eyes turned blood red, his face twisted in grief and rage.

  But in the moment, his pupils froze.

  Whoosh!

  Like a gust of wind passing by, everyone saw the Li elder still in mid-air, but his head seemed to be sliced by an invisible bde, splitting in two, falling powerlessly to the ground.

  "You have killed a level 20 wild monster, gaining 40,000 experience points! (Level challenge bonus 100%!)"

  "You have killed a level 20 wild monster, gaining 40,000 experience points! (Level challenge bonus 100%!)"

  As the bodies hit the ground with a heavy thud, the elders stood there in shock, eyes wide open.

  The peak bat power of the elder cil, the renowned Li brothers of Tianfeng Kingdom, were dead just like that?

  Everyoruggled to accept this reality, but the Li brothers' bodies y before them, undeniable proof.

  "There's a formation!"

  "It's a level ten killing formation!!"

  The crowd suddenly realized that, given the circumstances, only a level ten killing formation could have killed the Li brothers.

  "Retreat quickly!" Xue Wuqing shouted.

  A level ten killing formation was no joke. Among the twenty or so elders, aside from him, no one could withstand it. If even the Li brothers were ambushed and killed, wouldn't the others be like fish on a chopping block, waiting to be sughtered?

  Just as Xue Wuqing's words fell.

  The surroundings began to blur, as if enveloped in thick fog. Within two breaths, visibility dropped to zero, and even face-to-face, they couldn't see each other's faces.

  Xue Wuqing tried to extend his spiritual sense, only to find it blocked.

  "Level ten illusion formation!" Xue Wuqing gritted out the words through ched teeth. Hearing these words, everyone's hearts sank.

  In addition to the level ten killing formation, there was a level ten illusion formation!

  It turned out this wasn't just one formation but a series of formations yered together!

  When had such a grand scheme been id here, waiting for them to fall into the trap?

  Everyone from the Fire Cloud Sect huddled together, their expressions more serious than ever.

  "Everyone, let's trate our atta one point. Even a level ten illusion formation 't withstand so many of us attag," someone suggested.

  Swoosh!

  As soon as the words were spoken, the sound of a bde slig through flesh was heard, followed by a man's anguished scream.

  "Ahhh! Don't kill me!"

  "Elder Xue, save me!!"

  "Ah!!"

  It seemed the oppo was doing this iionally, as the man's screams of being tortured echoed clearly for everyoo hear, his situation imaginable.

  But uhe level ten illusion formation, nothing could be seen, and they couldn't even protect themselves, let alone save others.

  The moment, they heard a series of horrifying sounds of flesh being torn apart. After one final wail, the screams abruptly stopped, as if the man had died.

  The se fell silent, not a sound to be heard.
