Chapter 1392: These people are sinister—be careful
"The trap hasn't been triggered yet."
All three sides had arrived, but the people of Haotu Shijie had no intention of making a move. Hearing this, everyone in Bai Song Gu felt somewhat unaccustomed.
This great battle is about to begin; isn't now the time to grab your weapons and fight?
What are you waiting for? Don't look at Bai Song Gu being all women—they're all hot-tempered.
On the Blood King Palace and Soaring Heaven Pavilion side, looking at Bai Song Gu and Haotu Shijie across from them, Viper seemed to have regained some sanity, and even whispered a reminder to Lie Xue beside him.
"Be careful, these people from Haotu Shijie are really sinister."
Hearing this, Lie Xue gave Viper a surprised, doubtful look—this guy actually dared to tell him to be careful?
In the past, wouldn't he have just rushed right up?
It's mainly because Viper's shadow of Haotu Shijie is too deep; he entered Haotu Shijie full of confidence, but the result was that he barely made it out.
He almost died there directly.
So, facing Haotu Shijie again, those old memories surged up.
"Go, try it."
Lie Xue had also heard Viper say that these people from Haotu Shijie seemed to like setting traps, so before attacking, he had a squad of Blood King Palace disciples go forward to probe.
That squad was obviously cannon fodder, but as they walked toward the battlefield, there wasn't the slightest movement along the way.
"I say, are you guys making too big a fuss? Besides, a few traps are just petty tricks not worth mentioning."
Seeing everything peaceful, with no sign of traps, Ling Lao Tou said coldly.
Being cautious is good, but with the battle imminent, being overly cautious isn't that just boosting the enemy's morale while crushing our own?
By then, the blow will be to their own morale.
Hearing this, Lie Xue nodded, his face darkened, and he prepared to launch an attack.
Meanwhile, the Bai Song Gu disciples watching the Blood King Palace squad frantically probing the traps were all bewildered.
Unconsciously, they looked toward the Haotu Shijie people beside them.
The Blood King Palace and Soaring Heaven Pavilion didn't realize, but they had personally watched the Haotu Shijie people set up that formation.
That area clearly had traps, and their number was enough to make one's scalp tingle.
But why is there no movement now?
"This.................."
"I used a little trick to delay the trap's trigger; after all, any normal person would test it first, right?"
Noticing the doubtful gaze of the Bai Song Gu disciple beside him, Xu Jie explained lightly.
"Normal person.................."
Again, 'normal person'—this explanation left them unable to refute.
But what does delaying the trigger mean? Can this even be done?
"Delaying the trap's trigger—is that something that can be done?"
"Sure, just a little trick."
It was the first time hearing that talisman seals and formation disks could be used like this, with delayed triggering—many Bai Song Gu disciples truly broadened their horizons.
With those talisman seals and formation disks in the hands of the Haotu Shijie people, they really played them to the fullest.
Just as the Bai Song Gu disciples were in shock, the Blood King Palace and Soaring Heaven Pavilion across from them had already launched an attack.
Under the commands of Lie Xue and Ling Lao Tou, countless disciples from the two sects charged toward Bai Song Gu.
Seeing this, the Bai Song Gu up and down instinctively made preparations to meet the attack.
"Relax, now is not the time."
On the contrary, the Haotu Shijie people remained completely calm, not worried at all.
As the two sects rushed into the trap zone, the next second, the ground that had shown no movement suddenly burst forth with light from various talisman seals and formation disks shooting up into the sky.
"How is that possible.................."
"Why would there be traps?"
Just now they personally watched that Blood King Palace squad walk back and forth in this area several times, and there was absolutely no problem.
But now, as soon as the two sects' people entered this area, they directly triggered the traps—this is absurd.
Could it be that what just happened was an illusion?
Before the two sects' people could think much longer, they were instantly swallowed by the talisman seals and formation.
Some strong disciples, stewards, and elders, relying on their own strength, were desperately resisting.
But those disciples with low cultivation were miserable, directly falling beneath the formation and talisman seals.
You should know that this time, Qiu Baiyi had even emptied the sect's treasure vault.
The talisman seals and formation disks used to set traps for the Haotu Shijie people are of no low grade.
Combined with the methods of the Haotu Shijie people, it's like adding wings to a tiger.
"Damn it."
"I just told you to be careful."
Lie Xue broke through several traps in a row, gritted his teeth and cursed, while Viper beside him added resentfully.
That comment directly pissed off Lie Xue, who turned and glared angrily.
"What's the use of saying this now?"
"Charge past, just a few traps—I don't believe they could still sway the battle."
Having come this far, retreat is definitely impossible; we can only grit our teeth and charge forward—after all, it's just traps, petty tricks not worth mentioning.
As long as we withstand this wave of trap attacks, he wants to see what other tricks those Haotu Shijie folks have.
Hearing Lie Xue's angry shout, many Blood King Palace disciples also gritted their teeth and rushed forward.
The Ling Tian Pavilion on the other side was the same; after all, they had no other choice.
However, everyone in Bai Song Gu watched the disciples of the two sects desperately trying to rush past the trap, and their expressions were all somewhat complex.
They thought that just getting past this wave of traps would be enough?
It's really too naive; the traps set up in this Haotu Shijie world aren't just a single wave—they come one after another.
Just as the first wave of traps was almost completely exhausted, Lie Xue secretly let out a sigh of relief.
He just said, a trivial little trick that couldn't even make it onto the stage, could it really still influence........... Holy shit.
But before he could finish that sigh, the scene that had just calmed down once again burst forth with soaring light.
"Any more?"
They hadn't moved at all, still standing in that trap area just now; logically, they shouldn't be able to trigger a new trap.
But now, countless talisman seals and formation lights shot up into the sky, and Lie Xue was left dumbfounded.
Just as he was dazed, light flared beneath his feet, and a pillar of fire directly engulfed him.
However, with Lie Xue's Emperor Sovereign Realm cultivation, this amount of damage was clearly insufficient to affect him in any way.
The next second the fire pillar was torn apart directly, but even so, Lie Xue's face was extremely grim.
He's fine, but what about the disciples below?
They had barely managed to withstand the trap, but damn, after just a few breaths, here it comes again?
What's going on with these traps? How can there be two waves of traps in the same place?
Some of the two sects' disciples who had barely survived the first wave of traps now faced another round of trap attacks; they were already badly injured, and this time they clearly couldn't hold on.
Directly amidst the light of the formations and talisman seals, they were blasted to death on the spot, body and spirit destroyed.
