Chapter 2815: Finally Escaping Alive

Hearing this about Yun Xiantai, the others present quickly nodded in agreement; since they couldn't kill him, they could only cripple him first, doing whatever extent they could.

Thinking this, the Heavenly Palace Celestial Official who had earlier examined his body took the lead in acting.

"I'll first destroy his meridians; meridians are the hardest to recover."

"That's what the lord said."

Upon hearing this, everyone voiced their agreement; immediately, the Heavenly Palace Celestial Official struck with a palm, violent Línglì surged wildly into the mysterious person's body, intending to destroy his meridians in one fell swoop.

With no restraint on his Línglì, such violent force, in the situation where he had fallen unconscious and unable to resist, even someone of the same realm or even higher cultivation than himself, this Heavenly Palace Celestial Official was confident he could succeed.

But soon, the Heavenly Palace Celestial Official realized that his Línglì entering the mysterious person's body caused barely any damage; this guy's meridians were extraordinarily sturdy.

Facing such violent Línglì impact, he actually endured it head-on.

"Quickly lend me a hand."

One person's strength couldn't achieve it, so the Heavenly Palace Celestial Official simply had others join in.

Upon hearing this, although the crowd was surprised, they still followed his call and all lent a hand.

Many people's Línglì poured into the mysterious person's body; for a moment, his insides were like a hodgepodge stew.

Various kinds of Línglì, sword qi, and blade qi ran about inside his body like headless flies.

Without a target, if one had to say the sole aim was destruction—whatever could be destroyed, that's where it went.

Under everyone's combined effort, as cracks spread throughout, the mysterious person's meridians were finally chipped open bit by bit.

With the meridians broken, even though the mysterious person lay unconscious, blood uncontrollably spurted from his seven orifices.

The meridians were done; at the same time, someone discovered within the mysterious person's body something resembling a Human Race dao foundation.

Although this dao foundation is formed when Human Race cultivators first embark on Xiūliàn, by definition it is the base of one's entire cultivation.

Although the mysterious person's inner "dao foundation" and that of the Human Race are not the same, merely a simple similarity, the difference is great.

But the person who discovered this still spoke up without hesitation.

"Break this thing, no matter what it is."

"Good."

Anyway, no matter what it is, since we've seen it, we might as well destroy it outright—there's no chance of leaving it.

Thinking this, everyone again joined forces to attack the location of the person's "dao foundation" inside.

This spot was far sturdier than the meridians, yet under everyone's all-out repeated assaults, it still ended up severely damaged.

Inside the mysterious person's body, everyone acted completely without restraint, just like bandits raiding a village.

They smashed whatever they saw, destroying what they could; if they couldn't destroy something, even chipping off a corner was considered good.

Someone inside the mysterious person's body committed misdeeds without restraint.

As for the mysterious person's external flesh, everyone naturally wasn't idle either.

Things like the limbs had long been chopped into minced meat; although difficult, it was merely a matter of hacking a few hundred more times.

If one strike wasn't enough, then add another hundred.

Besides the limbs, the fifth limb also couldn't be saved; whatever it was, anything that could be chopped was chopped first and dealt with later.

Even Qi Xiong went berserk, shaving the mysterious person's silver hair completely bald.

"Why are you shaving his head?"

In response, someone expressed incomprehension, saying hair is utterly useless.

However, upon hearing that, Qi Xiong spoke with fervent words.

"Who knows if this hair might be some deadly spot? Perhaps there could be an unexpected gain; anyway, there's no loss."

Huh??

Hearing this, the crowd momentarily felt it made some sense, yet looking at the mysterious person's bald head, they still felt something was off.

"Are you sure shaving his head will help?"

"Or should we chop his head too?"

However, some still approved Qi Xiong's idea, then turned to the mysterious person's neck and whispered.

But as soon as those words were spoken, the crowd immediately stopped them.

"No, who knows if chopping the head would let him live? For now we can't kill this guy."

"Then how about cutting off his ears?"

"That works; also cut off his nose and eyes together."

Huh??

Seeing everyone so eager, even Hong Zun felt it was cruel—do you really think this is okay?

But setting aside what Hong Zun is currently busy with, this group drew their swords and cut off the mysterious person's tongue.

After all that, when everyone stopped moving, the mysterious person hardly resembled a human at all; to describe it as horrifying would be an understatement.

"Let's go, hurry up."

The leading Heavenly Palace Celestial Official frowned slightly, felt a bit uneasy, then turned away, unwilling to look further, and said to the crowd.

"Go."

Upon hearing this, the crowd didn't waste words, immediately nodded in agreement, then turned and rushed straight toward the white light.

But when the crowd arrived, the team led by the other two Heavenly Palace Celestial Officials still hadn't broken through the seal of the white light.

Seeing this, Qi Xiong and the others each furrowed their brows.

"Still not done?"

"What are you doing? Brother, hurry up and deal with this damned thing—we're trying to escape!"

"You think we don't want to? This thing simply can't be opened."

In response, the team members also replied with grim faces, insisting they certainly hadn't slacked off—after all, with their lives at stake, who would dare cause trouble at a time like this?

It's just that this layer of white light is simply impossible to crack; they've exhausted all means, yet they have no way to deal with this white light mass.

They couldn't even produce a bubble.

Upon hearing that, everyone present fell into silence. Could it be that even if they knocked that mysterious person unconscious, they still wouldn't be able to escape? Would they just be blocked by this thin layer of white light?

What a joke—if they can't open this layer of white light, all their previous efforts would be for nothing, everything they've done would be useless.

Just as everyone was anxiously scratching their heads and cheeks, Yun Xiantai suddenly stepped forward and spoke.

"Let me try."

Huh???

"You?"

Upon hearing that, many people looked at Yun Xiantai with suspicion—even the Heavenly Official's personal intervention had been useless; could you possibly succeed? What can your meager cultivation accomplish?

In response, Yun Xiantai showed no change in expression, pushing through the crowd to stand before the white light.

With no other option, everyone could only let Yun Xiantai give it a try, to see what he could do.

Under everyone's gaze, Yun Xiantai took out a peculiarly shaped jade tablet from his bosom and pressed it against the white light.

To everyone's astonishment, as soon as the jade tablet touched the white light, the light that had been blocking them began to gradually dissipate.
