Chapter 468: Joint Siege

"Big Brother, are we going in or not?" Looking at the bowl-sized hole in the chest of the Sanctuary assassin lying on the ground, a person dressed in night-traveling clothes swallowed and asked the person beside him.

"How could we not act? The Young Clan Master has been crippled, and the hope for the clan's rise is gone just like that. The Clan Master has given a death order; we must take the lives of those few people!" the other said in a deep voice.

"But, this clearly isn't being crippled, right? It's just that his spirit received a shock. As long as he recuperates for a few years, he'll be fine!" the man said, still somewhat puzzled.

"A few years? A few years is enough for those of the same age to catch up to or even surpass the Young Clan Master. Who knows how many people are laughing at our clan in the open and in secret right now. Given this situation, it is only natural that the Clan Master wants to grind these people into dust," that person said.

"But, relying on just the two of us, it doesn't seem enough!"

"Just the two of us is naturally not enough, but as long as we make a move, there will certainly be more people acting in the dark. After all, no one wants to see a powerful existence capable of swaying the situation of this Continent appear on this Continent in the future." The man gripped the staff in his hand tightly, and fire elements began to gather around him.

"I understand!" The man in night-traveling clothes nodded heavily, then suddenly darted out from his hiding place. The aura belonging to a Sanctuary powerhouse on his body suddenly rose to the limit, and he brandished the great sword in his hand, charging toward the direction of the clone.

Seeing this scene, the elements around the clone's body fluctuated all at once.

At the same time, Lingyun's voice rang in Aiweier's ear: "Get ready for battle!"

Following the Sanctuary man's move, those hiding in the dark also acted. In an instant, the number of people attacking reached six, and all were at the Sanctuary level.

"Joining forces for a siege?" The clone sneered, the Star Longbow reappearing in his hand as he slowly drew the bowstring.

"Quick, stop him!" Seeing this, the Sanctuary powerhouses present felt a trace of chill rise in their hearts. Without any reservation, they unleashed different moves toward Lingyun's direction simultaneously.

Facing the full-force attacks of six Sanctuary powerhouses, the clone's figure flickered, instantly splitting into countless Phantoms, actually dodging them all. After avoiding the attacks of the six Sanctuary powerhouses, the Star Longbow in the clone's hand was fully drawn. With a release of his hand, the Deadly Flying Arrow shot out like lightning.

Facing the Deadly Flying Arrow that tore through the night sky, not a single person present had any intention of taking it head-on; after all, the power contained in this arrow made them all feel terrified.

The Star Arrow turned into a stream of light and instantly vanished into the darkness. While the Sanctuary powerhouses present breathed a sigh of relief, they all had a trace of doubt in their hearts, because this arrow was shot far too off-target, completely inconsistent with the style of a Sanctuary powerhouse.

"Boom—" A violent burst of fire elements erupted in the darkness in the distance. A fiery red ring of light suddenly lit up in the darkness, and a violent shockwave swept outward, turning everything within a radius of several hundred meters into scorched earth.

"Big Brother—"

Suddenly, a heart-wrenching scream rang out. The Sanctuary Swordsman who had been the first to attack Lingyun suddenly let out a scream. He clearly remembered that that spot was exactly where they had been hiding just moments ago.

The Sanctuary Magus hiding in the dark had never imagined until his death that he would be the first one to be killed. One must know that he possessed an Alchemy Tool capable of masking his aura. At the same time, when he used Magic, he also used a Scroll capable of masking Magic fluctuations. Under these circumstances, if the opponent were anyone else, his sneak attack would certainly have achieved excellent results.

But this time, he was facing Lingyun, whose Divine Sense had long since completely monitored this area. Trying to pull any tricks in this place was simply wishing for a shorter life. Moreover, the reason so many people jumped out to besiege them this time was also because of him. This is what they call the gun hitting the bird that sticks its head out, especially since this bird was a fragile, high-attack Magician who was still holding back a big move in the dark and was in a state of lowest defense; it would be strange not to kill him first.

"Damn it, the opponent set up a Space Magic Array in this place. We cannot unfold our Domain, otherwise, how could there be so many issues?" Another Sanctuary Swordsman shouted angrily, the long sword in his hand sweeping out, and dozens of Sword Qi swept horizontally toward the clone's direction.

"I want you to die..." The Sanctuary Swordsman dressed in night-traveling clothes let out a roar, his physique instantly expanding a bit as he charged madly toward Lingyun.

That Magician and he had been brothers for decades; the two had experienced countless storms together along the way, and his very life had even been saved by the Magician. Now that his Big Brother had been killed in one blow by the clone because of his own negligence, he had fallen into a state of complete rage, wanting only to kill the clone to avenge his Big Brother.

"An enraged person is much easier to deal with than a calm one!" The clone waved his hand, and the majestic Star Gang gathered in his hand, instantly transforming into a long sword.

"Boom, boom, boom—" The long sword and the great sword collided, emitting a violent roaring sound. Powerful energy surged, destroying everything around the two.

While the Sanctuary Swordsman and the clone were entangled in battle, the other five abandoned the clone without hesitation and charged toward the direction of Lingyun and the others. Their goal was simple: to kill Chen Jing, who was in the middle of awakening her physique. As for Lingyun and the others, they were just collateral.

Watching the five people rushing toward Chen Jing, the Sanctuary Swordsman let out a roar, entangling the clone even more tightly to prevent him from going to intercept them.

Facing this situation, a sneer appeared on the clone's face. He did not believe his original body had no preparations. One must know that the control of the Star Array was currently in the hands of the original body, and he had even turned the entire Star Array into his own Domain, while also suppressing the unfolding of others' Domains. Under these circumstances, if those people could still hurt Chen Jing, that would truly be a huge joke.

"Let's finish off this berserk guy first!" The Star Sword in the clone's hand suddenly dissipated, and then Star Gang gathered on his right hand as he suddenly grabbed forward.

The great sword that the Sanctuary Swordsman slashed down was suddenly caught in his hand. The blade and palm met, sparking countless flames, but under the obstruction of the Star Gang, it could not cause any damage to the clone's palm.

The moment the great sword was caught by the clone, a sense of foreboding rose in the Sanctuary Swordsman's heart, and he immediately wanted to pull his sword back and retreat. But the clone would not let this opportunity pass. His figure instantly closed in on the Sanctuary Swordsman, and at the same time, he delivered an Iron Mountain Lean heavily onto the Sanctuary Swordsman. Because of the difference in their physiques, from a distance, it looked as if the clone had burrowed into the Sanctuary Swordsman's embrace.

This Iron Mountain Lean was a full-force strike the clone unleashed with the help of the power of the Star Array; even a Sanctuary Rock Barrier would be smashed into fragments under this lean. The moment he was hit by the clone's Iron Mountain Lean, the Sanctuary Swordsman felt as if he had been hit head-on by a great mountain, almost shaking his internal organs into fragments. The Sanctuary Swordsman's figure instantly flew backward like a cannonball, and blood sprayed from his mouth as if it were worthless. Even the great sword he regarded as his life flew from his hand and landed heavily on the ground.

After heavily injuring the Sanctuary Swordsman with the Iron Mountain Lean, the clone gathered hazy starlight in his hand again; this was a powerful strike that condensed Star Gang into a single point.

"Star Gang Fist!"

The clone's figure flickered, and with the help of the power of the Star Array, he appeared in front of the Sanctuary Swordsman who was flying backward, slamming a fist heavily into his body.

A dazzling Flash flickered in mid-air, and the Sanctuary Swordsman was blasted into a mist of blood by this strike from the clone, dissipating between heaven and earth.

Just as the clone finished off the Sanctuary Swordsman, a violent explosion suddenly occurred behind him, and the dust raised by the explosion instantly obscured his figure.
