Simultaneous travel: The group is about to be wiped out

Chapter 216 Dan Shi, failed...

The moonlight shone down on the flat ground, reflecting off the surrounding vegetation, giving it a somewhat desolate appearance.

Looking at Yang Lie and his group of Tang Clan experts ahead, Zhang Huaiyi showed no fear and remained as calm as ever.

"I know some of what happened back then. The people of the Tang Clan were kind and righteous and did not kill us all. This forced entry was truly offensive, but there was nothing we could do about it."

"Today I must go to Tang Tomb to see my sworn brother."

"Humph!!"

Yang Lie snorted coldly, his expression growing even colder.

"Sworn brothers? Sorry, we Tang Clan have no sworn brothers like you. Today, no matter the reason, you must die there."

The situation was entirely within Zhang Huaiyi's expectations, so he didn't dwell on it further and simply nodded.

"Alright, in that case, let's see who's the best."

As he spoke, he had already scanned everyone in front of him.

Indeed, these are all top-notch experts from the Tang Clan, but they do not pose a fatal threat to me.

The only one worth being wary of is Yang Lie, the head of the Tang Clan, a grandmaster-level expert who has mastered the Dan Shi technique.

And then there was the white-clad man who had been watching him the whole time.

Chen Feng, the deputy leader of the Tang Clan.

The young-looking man maintained a calm expression throughout, perhaps believing he couldn't cause any significant trouble...

Zhang Huaiyi naturally had information about this person as well. He was known as the strongest person in the history of the Tang Clan, and his youthful appearance had not changed for decades.

There is no doubt that this person also possesses the Dan Shi technique. When they swore brotherhood, Dong Chang and Xu Xin praised Chen Feng highly, their tone full of admiration.

But what made him even more wary was the rumor that this person was on par with Zhang Zhiwei, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and his own senior brother.

Zhang Huaiyi is the most qualified to speak on Zhang Zhiwei's abilities, having suffered a complete defeat in that battle.

Even Zhang Zhiwei's true strength wasn't fully revealed.

Whizzing! ! !

At that moment, several figures broke through the air at great speed and blocked Zhang Huaiyi's retreating position.

It was Zhang Wang and his group that were in hot pursuit.

At this moment, all the experts from the Tang Clan gathered here, eyeing Zhang Huaiyi, who was in the very center, with predatory intent.

Chen Feng, who was watching from the side, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes and couldn't help but touch his chin. He had to admit that Zhang Huaiyi was really bold.

No one has ever ventured into the Tang Clan alone in decades or even centuries.

Everyone in the world of supernatural beings knows that when it comes to killing techniques, the heroes of the Tang Clan are definitely among the top.

Even the methods of the Celestial Master's Mansion cannot compare. Whether it is the Golden Light Mantra or the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, they are exquisite when used to repel enemies, but when used for killing, their efficiency is ridiculously low.

This is the method of the orthodox Taoist sects, leaving people a glimmer of hope...

It's unknown what level of strength Zhang Huaiyi has reached.

Seeing the situation, Zhang Wang couldn't hold back any longer and said directly, "Sect Leader, don't waste words with this guy. Let's all attack and kill him. He dared to force his way into the sect. If we don't kill him, what will happen to the reputation of our Tang Sect?"

If someone were to force their way into the sect and escape unscathed, the reputation of the entire Tang Clan would likely suffer a significant blow.

Yang Lie ignored Zhang Wang's words, took a few steps forward, and stared calmly at Zhang Huaiyi.

“Our Tang Clan is an assassin sect. If I saw you outside at normal times, I would ignore you. But today you have forced your way into my sect. If I don’t kill you, I’ll be a useless sect leader.”

"So, I've done you a favor, kill him."

The moment he finished speaking, Yang Lie's figure flashed, turning into a blur, and he swung his arm.

Bah! ! !

Countless hidden weapons emerged and flew straight towards Zhang Huaiyi at extremely high speed.

At the same time, Tang Miaoxing, who had followed, narrowed his eyes, leaped up, swept past the grass and trees, gripped his dagger tightly, and struck straight at the vital point.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Wang, who was of one mind with him, immediately took action and gave instructions to the people behind him.

"You don't need to do anything. Just keep an eye on the location and be ready to provide support at any time."

Then, he too leaped up and joined the battle.

At this moment, three senior masters of the Tang Clan joined forces to deal with Zhang Huaiyi, the master of Qi Body Source Flow, one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques.

At the same time, the dozen or so Tang Clan experts around them exchanged glances and spread out in perfect unison.

Their positioning was very strategic, cleverly guarding various positions while also being within a suitable distance, ready to strike at any time.

If any of Yang Lie's three companions were to fall into danger, at least three members of the Tang Clan would be able to come to their rescue instantly.

The opening of the assassination route abroad prevented the development of Tang Clan's skilled members from being stifled as in the original storyline.

Every Tang Clan expert present had carried out no fewer than seven missions and had at least ten lives on their hands, giving them a significant advantage in combat.

The most conspicuous figure in this place was Chen Feng. Dressed in white, he stood there quietly, his eyes calmly watching the four people fighting in the arena, as if everything was under his control.

Before arriving, Yang Lie had already discussed it with Chen Feng, instructing him not to make a move, but to oversee the entire situation and be prepared for any unexpected events.

As the head of the Tang Clan, he was more thorough in his considerations and always liked to keep something in reserve. Zhang Huaiyi came alone, and it was hard to guarantee that there wouldn't be any of his sworn brothers around him.

With Chen Feng here as a backup plan, this risk can be avoided.

Chen Feng was happy to agree, as it gave these three a chance to hone their skills. Not everyone gets the opportunity to work with a master like Zhang Huaiyi.

With his skills, he can intervene at any time to provide rescue and prevent accidents from happening.

At this moment, the battle on the field has entered a stalemate.

Tang Miaoxing's expression hardened, and he roared angrily. The purple Qi around his body swirled, directly activating the Earth and Wood Flowing Pillar, causing his aura to surge.

Holding a black dagger, without any intention of taking shortcuts, he concentrated all his strength and thrust it straight at Zhang Huaiyi.

Faced with this attack, Zhang Huaiyi raised an eyebrow, and golden light surged from his body, transforming into a sharp blade, which he swung straight at the attacker.

Keng! ! !
The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the arena, and a powerful force was generated at the point of impact.

Stirred by this, Tang Miaoxing's body stiffened, and the dagger in his hand went out of control, veering in another direction.

However, correspondingly, a sizable gap appeared on the golden blade that had been attacked in this way.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Huaiyi couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly; the hardness of these daggers was truly extraordinary.

I had previously heard Xu Xin and Dong Chang mention that the Tang Clan's black hand daggers were made using a secret method; although they were thin, they were incredibly hard.

The only time it was cut in half was during the War of Resistance against Japan, when it was cut in half by a guy named Eita from the Higanbana ninja clan, who wielded a demonic sword.

The thoughts in his mind flashed by, but Zhang Huaiyi's movements did not falter at all, and he rushed forward to meet them.

A full-force attack would inevitably leave them powerless to follow up, making this the perfect opportunity to cripple Tang Miaoxing in one fell swoop.

Just then, a slightly shorter figure flashed past from the side, purple energy rising from his body. He took a deep breath and then exhaled it with a whoosh.

A dense purple poisonous aura spread out, sweeping towards Zhang Huaiyi in an overwhelming manner.

At the same time, blue poisonous energy rose from the ground, and the person who made the move was an outer sect expert not far away.

Having witnessed Zhang Huaiyi's earth-walking technique, he was prepared for this move. To everyone's surprise, Zhang Huaiyi did not choose to dodge, but instead formed a hand seal.

In an instant, a mysterious formation unfolded beneath his feet.

The character is 大风 (dàfēng).

The Qimen Dunjia technique was unleashed, and a strong wind blew, instantly dispersing all the poisonous Qi that was sweeping in.

The force was so great that it even blew Zhang Wang, who was standing nearby, away.

Upon seeing this scene, not only were the Tang Clan experts watching around somewhat surprised, but even Chen Feng's eyelids twitched.

Good heavens, it can even use Qimen Dunjia techniques. This Qi Source Flow is really shameless.

At the end of the technique, the Qi body originates and flows—this is indeed the case.

All the arts and techniques in the world originate from one source.

Bah! ! !
An extremely faint sound came from behind, even fainter than the sound of a pebble rolling down.

Behind Zhang Huaiyi, a tiny black dot appeared and silently struck his vitals.

A bit of cold light arrived first, and then the gun came out like a dragon.

Although the black dagger made a soft sound, it carried an extremely powerful aura.

The one who made the move was Yang Lie.

In his youth, his illusionary body technique was already incredibly advanced. Now, if he cultivates for another few decades, he will be able to rank among the top in the history of the Tang Sect.

The attack was silent until it struck the Golden Light Mantra, at which point Zhang Huaiyi became aware of it.

The incredibly hard golden light spell was easily pierced through by Yang Lie's attack, as if it were tofu.

Just as the dagger was about to reach his neck, Zhang Huaiyi suddenly made a move, his eyes flashing with blue light and lightning surging.

At its neck, it transformed into a lightning serpent.

The lightning serpent was so lifelike that it let out a roar and charged directly at the black hand spikes.

The moment the two touched, the lightning snake exploded, unleashing endless bolts of lightning that seemed to shake the very fabric of space.

At that moment, Zhang Huaiyi's surroundings seemed to become a forbidden zone, with thunder and lightning roaring and driving away the surroundings.

Upon seeing this, a figure appeared from behind, retreating rapidly. After sliding several meters, he created distance. It was Yang Lie, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that he had suffered a loss in the previous exchange.

At this moment, based solely on this brief exchange, he had already realized how troublesome Zhang Huaiyi was.

Chen Feng, who was watching from the sidelines, also vaguely guessed Zhang Huaiyi's strength.

In a normal fight, none of the three had a chance of winning. Not counting themselves, even if all the Tang Clan experts around them attacked, they would still be in trouble.

Zhang Huaiyi's talent is in no way inferior to that of the previous Heavenly Master.

The previous Celestial Master was already very powerful; his methods commanded respect from both the righteous and the demonic.

Zhang Huaiyi, whom they valued highly, also possessed considerable talent. While not as talented as Zhang Zhiwei, he was certainly on par with Zhang Jingqing.

Moreover, Zhang Huaiyi is now much older than his master Zhang Jingqing was back then.

It's equivalent to cultivating for another ten years or so on the foundation of the previous generation's Celestial Master at his peak, plus the Qi Body Source Flow, one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques.

With this buff, Zhang Huaiyi is definitely one of the top masters in the world, second only to Zhang Zhiwei in the comics.

Even without the Dan Shi technique, Yang Lie was still a master, yet he couldn't gain any advantage against Zhang Huaiyi.

Next, I'll probably have to use the Pill Devouring technique...

With his thoughts racing, Yang Lie instantly came up with an idea. He began to circulate his Qi and activated the Tang Clan's unique skill, Earth and Wood Flowing Pillar. His already agile speed was further enhanced at this moment.

"Miaoxing, Zhang Wang."

At the shout, the two men suddenly looked up. Years of cooperation allowed them to instantly guess Yang Lie's thoughts. They exchanged a glance and decided to attack together.

Whew!! Whew!!

With two shouts, two large swaths of poisonous energy enveloped Zhang Huaiyi and spread towards him.

This time, the goal is not to kill the enemy, but to create an opportunity.

Faced with the attacking poisonous energy, even though he knew it was a trap, Zhang Huaiyi still had to take action, since getting tainted by the poisonous energy would be quite troublesome.

The golden light evolved, transforming into six sharp needles.

With a sudden swing of his arm, the Three-Pronged Fire Needle Technique was unleashed, the poisoned needles sparking as they plunged into the poisonous aura.

In an instant, orange-red flames ignited, completely burning away the poisonous energy.

His skill with fire needles is comparable to that of masters who have practiced fire needles for decades.

Sizzle!! Sizzle!!
Six fire needles pierced through the poisonous energy and entered Zhang Wang and Tang Miaoxing's bodies respectively. Although not fatal, they directly rendered the two powerless to resist.

But taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Lie had reached a sufficient distance and gradually revealed his figure.

Then his aura began to change, as if he were about to disappear from the world, eerie and deathly still, a feeling that was hard to describe.

But undeniably, this feeling is somewhat chilling.

More than a dozen droplet-shaped pills, invisible to ordinary people, emanated from his body, spreading around Zhang Huaiyi and gradually seeping inward.

It appears peaceful, yet it exudes an inexplicable aura.

Yang Lie's Dan Shi technique has a medium range and quantity, which, while somewhat mediocre, means it is flawless.

Zhang Huaiyi suddenly raised his head, a rare look of panic appearing on his face.

Ominous, very ominous! !
Indeed, Zhang Huaiyi is very powerful, but the Tang Clan's Dan Shi can make all living beings equal, and anyone who is hit by it will die. This has been the case for hundreds of years without exception.

Before Zhang Huaiyi could make a move, Dan Shi once again penetrated into the interior.

Dan Shi, he was hit.

At that moment, Zhang Huaiyi felt something different in his body; the feeling was not right.

This was the first time in decades that he had felt a deadly threat.

Is this the Tang Clan's ultimate technique, Dan Shi?
Zhang Huaiyi suddenly looked up, his eyes shining brightly, and he temporarily suppressed the discomfort in his body. He transformed into a golden streak of light, moving at great speed, and then fled directly outside.

At that moment, realizing the threat posed by Dan Shi, he abandoned all his plans.

If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave today.

Upon seeing this, Yang Lie's pupils suddenly widened, his face filled with disbelief. Such a look had actually appeared on the face of this usually calm Tang Clan leader.

No, although a person afflicted by the Dan Shi can make some movements in a short time, their Qi has been disrupted and cannot circulate.

To ensure everything went perfectly, he also used more than a dozen pills.

However, Zhang Huaiyi did not appear to have been poisoned by the pill at all.

How can this be! ?
A terrifying thought surfaced in Yang Lie's mind.

Dan Shi failed...
