Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16436
16434. Chapter 16434 Sword Pill
“Someone, check on our teleportation array! Also, contact General Wu immediately and ask them to come and provide support!” Qingyou shouted, his face extremely grim. He truly hadn’t expected that his supposedly foolproof defense would be breached by the enemy in a single encounter. This was terrifying.
The next moment, a disciple ran up to Qingyou with a pale face and said, “Elder, it’s terrible! Our teleportation array has been sealed, and the communication array is unusable too.”
Qingyou’s expression turned even more grim. The next moment, he suddenly felt something about to emerge from the ground beneath his feet. He moved swiftly to the side, and then he saw a vine, like a spear, pierce the ground and shoot upwards. The next moment, countless similar vines emerged from the ground. He witnessed the disciple who had just reported to him being impaled and killed by a vine because he couldn’t dodge in time.
Qingyou’s expression grew even more grim. Just then, he saw a disciple flying towards him. The disciple landed in front of Qingyou, his face pale, and said, “Elder, these vines are everywhere! Many of our men have died.”
Qingyou said in a deep voice, “I see them. Everyone, follow me.” The disciple responded, then immediately turned and shouted, “Everyone, assemble here!”
With his voice, countless disciples and elders flew towards them from all directions. Qingyou looked at the people flying towards them and breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed their losses were less than he had imagined.
But at that moment, Qingyou watched in disbelief as a disciple who had flown over was too close to the cave wall. He was immediately beheaded by something that looked like an enlarged version of an insect’s foreleg—this thing looked like a knife, but it was entirely black, like an insect’s shell. The thing then retracted back into the cave wall. Throughout the entire process, the foreleg seemed to completely ignore the resistance of the soil, and the cave wall did not appear to be damaged at all during its extension and retraction. It was a remarkably smooth process.
Qingyou flicked his wrist, and a flying sword slashed directly at the cave wall, leaving a sword mark. However, there was nothing inside the cave. Qingyou realized that the flying sword hadn’t struck anything, which made his expression even more grim. He immediately shouted, “Everyone, get away from the cave walls, the ceiling, and the ground! Don’t give the enemy a chance to attack us! Everyone, follow me and charge out!”
Everyone responded, and then they all followed Qingyou and rushed out. Just then, branches sprouted from the leaves of the vines, and these branches rushed straight towards Qingyou and the others.
Qingyou flicked his wrist, and a flying sword appeared directly in front of him. The flying sword twisted forward, directly shredding the newly grown branches along with the original vines. Qingyou flew straight forward.
Just then, a large hole leading directly to the earth suddenly appeared not far in front of him. Qingyou’s expression changed, and he immediately flew towards the hole. He had just reached it when he heard an explosion.
Looking up, Qingyou saw a Shattered Star Sword shattered by Qianji Star. His expression changed drastically. The next moment, he saw countless Shattered Star Swords attacking Qianji Star, but all of them were shattered, posing no threat whatsoever.
Qingyou’s expression grew even more grim. At that moment, a group of people dressed in blood-red clothes suddenly appeared in the sky. These people also saw Qingyou and his companions, and then they charged straight at him. The leaders each held several longswords, which looked ancient and natural, with shimmering light on their blades.
Qingyou was no fool. Upon seeing those longswords, his expression changed instantly. He immediately exclaimed, “The sect’s most treasured artifact!”
The moment his words left his mouth, a flying sword was already in front of him. This flying sword had no other distinguishing features, except for its speed—it was incredibly fast. Before he could even react, the sword was already upon him.
Clang! His flying sword automatically protected its master, blocking the attack, but it was broken in the process. However, this gave him time to react. With a flick of his hand, another flying sword appeared before him. Simultaneously, with another flick of his hand, seven sword pellets appeared beside him.
Sword pellets can be seen as semi-finished products of flying swords. Sword pellets are generally not large. They were originally intended to be forged into flying swords, but due to insufficient materials, they could only be forged into sword pellets. They also contain restrictions and sword energy. Of course, their power is not comparable to that of flying swords because sword pellets are too small to contain as many restrictions as flying swords. However, these sword pellets also have their advantages. They are easier to forge and can form combat power in the shortest amount of time. These are the advantages of sword pellets.
Qingyou’s sword pellet was actually her sword embryo. She originally intended to forge a magical artifact called the “Seven Star Sword Formation,” a powerful sword formation composed of seven flying swords. However, because it required seven different flying swords with varying attributes, and all the necessary materials were of the highest quality, she hadn’t been able to successfully forge it over the years. The materials she had collected, however, could be used to forge sword pellets, which she had nurtured and never used.
But today, Qingyou released these sword pellets, forcing her to use them. She knew perfectly well that if she didn’t use them now, she might never have another chance; she was now at a critical juncture.
Just as his sword pellets appeared, the flying sword that attacked him spun once more, severing the flying sword he had previously released. After that flying sword was severed, the seven sword pellets began to spin rapidly. The next moment, these seven sword pellets seemed to emit a strange force field, which restrained the flying sword, freezing it in place, unable to move for a moment.
If anyone could get close to the flying sword, they would find that the energy around it was completely distorted. It was only because the flying sword was a treasured artifact of a sect that it was able to withstand the distortion; if it were an ordinary flying sword, it would have been twisted and broken by that energy long ago.
Just then, Qingyou suddenly felt a chill on his chest. He looked down and saw a sword embedded in his chest, hilt deep. Judging from the hilt, it seemed to be the flying sword trapped in the sword formation. He looked up at the trapped sword and saw it slowly becoming transparent before disappearing completely.
Qingyou opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Normally, a kingdom-level expert like him would have extremely strong vitality; even a fatal sword strike wouldn’t kill him immediately. But the flying sword was different. When it pierced his body, it released a force that directly destroyed his life force, which was why he couldn’t hold on any longer.
Qingyou glanced one last time at the sword pellets, a bitter smile appearing on his face. He had originally intended to refine these sword pellets into flying swords, but now it seemed he had no chance. He looked down at the longsword that was slowly being pulled from his chest, and smiled bitterly again. How could he forget that this longsword was a treasure-level magic weapon, and such magic weapons usually possessed special abilities. For example, some flying swords could release clones—can you believe a flying sword can release clones? But some flying swords could do that, and he doubted that the flying sword he was facing could. Some flying swords could release spells, and continuously at that. Some flying swords could release sword energy—not ordinary sword energy, but overwhelming, rain-like sword energy. Every treasure-level magic weapon was not so simple; he had underestimated that flying sword.
Meanwhile, the Blood Slaughter Sect members also arrived. Among those following Qingyou were some Kingdom-level experts. They put up a resistance, but it was futile. They were facing experts from the Blood Slaughter Sect, who wielded sect-protecting magical artifacts. Faced with such an enemy, they were utterly helpless and were all killed.
After killing these people, the Blood Slaughter Sect experts went directly into the underground base to clear out the remaining enemies.
At this time, a group of people was flying towards Dongtian City. These were cultivators from other bases, led by two hundred Kingdom-level experts, followed by three hundred elites. The teleportation array they had built outside Dongtian City could accommodate five hundred people, so this reinforcement force consisted of only five hundred people. However, they were only the first batch; reinforcements from other bases were also on their way.
The leader, a kingdom-level expert, glanced around and then said in a deep voice, “The enemy has used an illusion array. Observe the surrounding terrain carefully. Has anyone been here before Dongtian City? Can you check if we’re in Dongtian City yet?”
Not far behind him, a king-level cultivator immediately replied, “I’ve been to Dongtian City. If I’m not mistaken, we’re currently not far from the entrance of that underground cave outside Dongtian City. It’s only about ten miles from here. If it’s an underground base, then we should already be in the underground base of Dongtian City.” “We’re in the air now. I heard that the underground base here in Dongtian City includes that cave.”
Upon hearing this, the leading Kingdom-level expert immediately waved his hand, and everyone stopped. He glanced around and then said, “The Blood Slaughter Sect is very skilled at using illusion arrays. We’re probably right in front of their illusion array now, or even inside it. Everyone be careful. Now, listen to my command: Shattered Star Sword Squad, release your Shattered Star Swords, enter them, and attack.” (End of Chapter)
