Chapter 1246: Xuan Ji's True Combat Strength
Just as the five of them were conversing with high spirits.
Outside the Array, the dazzling light that had originally permeated a large portion of the sky had mostly receded.
The five of them came to their senses and looked outward.
Under the gaze of the five.
That area covered by the light gradually became clear.
A blurry figure slowly appeared in the field of vision of the five.
The five were stunned.
During the moment they were stunned, that figure had already become clear.
It was none other than Xuan Ji.
At this moment, Xuan Ji's long hair was dancing without wind, drifting backward along with the scarlet battle dress on her body.
It snapped and fluttered.
On her body, strands of Scarlet Asura Power rose continuously like wolf smoke, condensing around her body into a massive Asura figure.
At this time, she was positioned exactly at the center of the Asura's brow.
After seeing all this clearly.
The five of them simultaneously revealed expressions of disbelief.
After Xuan Ji took the rebounding strike of the Floating Cloud Sect Protective Grand Array head-on, she had actually not perished!
No!
It was not just as simple as not perishing.
On her body, there was not even a single scar!
Furthermore~
That phantom image condensed outside her body was too strong.
Even with the isolation of the Protective Sect Array, that terrifying aura still could not be completely blocked, making them unable to help but feel a sense of heart-palpitating fear.
Just as expressions of horror appeared on their faces.
Xuan Ji's palm suddenly grabbed downward.
That scarlet longsword which had fallen to the ground flew up with a "whoosh" and landed in her palm.
In an instant.
A massive sharp sword condensed and emerged in the hand of that huge Asura figure.
The moment the giant sword appeared, the aura on the Asura figure became even more piercing.
The longsword in Xuan Ji's hand was slowly raised.
The Asura figure's movements were synchronized with hers, the giant sword in its hand held high.
The longsword in Xuan Ji's hand slashed down.
The giant sword in the Asura figure's hand also slashed down accordingly.
A streak of scarlet Sword Light broke away from the giant sword and shot out.
In an instant, a terrifying, piercing aura permeated this heaven and earth.
The wind and clouds changed color.
Wherever the Sword Light passed, the sky was ignited into a scarlet color, and the clouds in the air were instantly sliced into countless fragments by the piercing aura that permeated outward.
In a flash.
The Sword Light landed on the Floating Cloud Sect's Protective Sect Array.
Boom!
The Floating Cloud Sect Array trembled violently.
Crack~
Crack~
Massive cracks instantly appeared on the Array's light screen, then rapidly spread to the surroundings, and in the blink of an eye, they covered the entire Array light screen.
The next moment.
The Array reached its limit and shattered into light spots filling the sky.
"Flee!"
At this moment, the five of them were all terrified, no longer having the slightest intention of contending with Xuan Ji.
The moment the Array shattered, they did not hesitate and fled toward the distance at the fastest speed.
The Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder took the lead.
At this moment, the crisis of death in his heart had reached the extreme, and he did not care in the slightest about the life or death of the Floating Cloud Sect
Cultivators.
He only knew.
They had severely underestimated Xuan Ji's strength.
The current Xuan Ji, although only at the Great Vehicle Mid-Stage cultivation, was already not the slightest bit weaker than a Great Vehicle Perfection Cultivator in every aspect.
If they fled slowly, they would undoubtedly die!
Running beside him was Su Junwu.
Su Junwu had long since honed a set of escape skills in the Immortal Abandoned Land, and his speed was no slower than the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder, following closely behind the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder.
As for the other three, their reactions were slower than the two, and they were left behind by quite a bit.
Seeing the five of them fleeing.
Xuan Ji was not in the slightest hurry, raised the sword in her hand, and slashed out another sword.
The sword in the hand of the Asura phantom slashed out accordingly.
A streak of blood-colored Sword Light tore through the air once more.
Previously, because of the isolation provided by the Floating Cloud Sect Protective Grand Array, the sensing of Su Junwu and the other four had not been too obvious.
At this moment, the Protective Grand Array shattered, and the five of them completely felt the terror of this sword strike.
The instant the Sword Light appeared.
A terrifying sword pressure instantly crossed the vast distance and landed on the five of them.
The five of them immediately felt as if they were trapped in a swamp, their speed dropping drastically.
The next moment.
The Sword Light approached, and a sharp aura permeated the air.
The five of them felt their scalps go numb.
"If you don't want to die, then give it your all!"
The Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder's figure paused, and the Spiritual Power on his body fluctuated violently.
However.
Whether it was Su Junwu or the other three, they acted as if they hadn't heard his words, continuing to flee, and in the blink of an eye, they surpassed him.
Give it my all?
Are you joking?
How can one fight such a powerful attack?
Are you looking for death?
The Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder's expression stiffened.
His original plan was to trick Su Junwu and the other three into blocking that Sword Light so he could take the opportunity to escape.
He didn't expect these four to be such trash.
They had absolutely no teamwork or spirit of sacrifice.
Because of this, he had instead become the one left behind to cover the rear.
His complexion turned livid.
He hurriedly turned to flee.
But at this moment.
He had already been left behind by Su Junwu and the others by a certain distance, and it was not easy to catch up in such a short time.
He had just fled a few miles when the Sword Light behind him flew over.
His heart trembled.
He had no choice but to stop his figure and grit his teeth to resist.
However.
He was, after all, only a Great Vehicle Early Stage Cultivator.
He couldn't even block Xuan Ji's attack before with the help of the Protective Grand Array and the power of the other four, let alone now?
He didn't even have the ability to make the Sword Light pause for an instant.
In the blink of an eye.
The Sword Light shattered his attack, severed his body, pierced through him, and continued to tear through the air ahead.
As blood splattered, his body, cut into two, fell toward the ground.
Whoosh!
A sound of tearing through the air rang out.
Xuan Ji flashed out and grabbed toward the upper half of the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder's body.
A phantom figure, so faint it was almost dissipating, floated out from his upper body and landed in Xuan Ji's hand.
This phantom was none other than the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder's Spirit Embryo.
At this moment, although the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder still retained a trace of his Soul, it had fallen into a deep sleep due to being too weak.
Of course.
The Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder was able to preserve a trace of his Soul not because he was strong, but because Xuan Ji was worried about destroying his Spirit Embryo directly.
She had held back and left it intentionally.
She moved her consciousness.
A wisp of Spirit Sense entered the Spirit Embryo, shattering the trace of the remaining Soul within it.
She flipped her palm.
She put away the Spirit Embryo and looked into the distance.
Su Junwu was still in the lead, and behind him, the three were side by side, fleeing frantically.
Further behind.
The blood-colored Sword Light had already caught up after severing the Floating Cloud Sect Supreme Elder.
"Daoist Friend Su, we cannot flee anymore; our speed cannot compare to the attack behind us."
"Let's attack together to block this strike, otherwise we will all die!"
The three behind exclaimed in horror.
