The team immediately felt something was wrong because Huang Yuan's sword, on par with Dao Ancestor, did not vanish after its owner's death. On the contrary, the golden light emanating from its body became brighter.
A terrifying aura emanated from its body, shaking the surrounding space. Without anyone controlling it, the sword rushed forward.
Swish!
It was faster than anything Tie Gang and Yan Liling could react to. The sword then easily penetrated their formation before rushing toward its target. The speed at which it traveled could only be described as numerous times infinite.
It was so fast that it basically ignored the innumerable distance of thousand of galaxies where the end of the formation was located. The sword headed directly toward the planet that was the center of the formation.
Wang Wei calmly watched the sword approaching; he did not move, so it appeared as if he could not react in time.
Many people watching the battle were shocked by the appearance of a Dao Artifact and thought the number one Heaven Chosen of this generation was about to fall.
And the people who could react to this sword secretly sighed that such a genius would fall because of a highly talented Artifact Refiner who secretly created a Dao Artifact. frёewebnoѵēl.com
Clink!
Shadow tentacle suddenly came out a person dressed in all black, deflecting the attack of the sword. Then, a beautiful woman stood in front of Wang Wei, protecting him.
It was Wang Ju.
Although she was on a mission, the clone she left sensed something, so she used Shadow Switching to switch places with the clone before blocking this attack.
After her shadow tentacles prevented the sword from accomplishing its tasks, the sword rapidly disintegrated as if it had never existed.
'So, Huang Yuan was a pawn,' thought Wang Wei before closing his eyes and continuing to maintain his best state.
Swish!
Li Jun appeared before the team.
"I'm glad you're okay," said Yan Liling. "What happened to you?"
"He imprisoned me in a strange dimension," explained Li Jun. "However, he underestimated my strength." He did not take long to escape his imprisonment and even saw the battle with Tie Gang; he's the one who calmed the latter down through Divine Sense Communication.
However, Li Jun decided to remain behind the scene in case an accident occurred. However, he did not expect Huang Yuan's trump card to be a Dao Artifact.
"You were careless," said Yan Liling.
"Indeed. Although I looked like I was cautious, deep down, I became arrogant because of my strength," agreed Li Jun; he should never have been caught so easily.
"Not only that, but you also care too much about your soldiers," added his wife. "They are trained soldiers, prepared to die. And on this battlefield, not many of them will survive. You should accept this fact."
Li Jun paused briefly before nodding, "You're right."
She patted his shoulder, "After this battle, you can easily revive most of them."
Li Jun nodded while Yan Liling gave Li Jun, Tie Gang, and even Wang Ju pills to recover. Li Jun did not really need it, but Tie Gang and Wang Ju did–especially the latter. To stop that sword, she needed to enter a special state where she could borrow Wang Wei's Dao Ancestor level strength.
And such a state was taxing on her body, so the pills were necessary for her current state. Yan Liling then proceeded to fix the formation.
Northern Quadrant:
Mo Xingyun opened her eyes in surprise.
'She stopped the attack? It should be the result of Shadow Ruler's Technique,' he pondered. 'However, it does not matter since my objective is complete.'
Mo Xingyun already planned everything; she's the one who prepared Huang Yuan's fortunate encounter that would allow him to escape his reliance on the Life and Death Book and even secretly led him to it.
She knew he would have no choice but to agree to her proposal to attack Wang Wei's group, using him as cannon fodder. After all, who can resist the temptation of strength and power?
Adding the fact the book had become Huang Yuan's Heart Demon because of all the rumors he was nothing without it, the plan was easy to accomplish.
