Everyone's face was pale and full of confusion.
Why is this happening?
Li Xiuping clearly followed Hou Yongping's instructions and destroyed all four stone pillars that needed to be destroyed, but instead of breaking the formation, it seemed to completely anger the entire formation.
Countless people in Huayang Sect looked at Hou Yongping.
Hou Yongping was also pale at the moment and didn't know what to do.
In the field, dust filled the sky, and countless stone pillars appeared irregularly. Some even collided with each other, and the rumbling sound was endless. Li Xiuping could not be seen at all, and naturally he did not know his current situation.
It is precisely because they cannot see it that everyone becomes more worried.
In such a killing array with astonishing power, let alone Li Xiuping, even a strong person in the Golden Core stage would have a hard time walking out of it intact.
Xu Bansheng gritted his teeth and was about to rush into the killing array to save people, but at this moment, a stone pillar suddenly rose into the sky from the dust. At the top of the stone pillar, a man stood impressively.
Li Xiuping was holding a hatchet, his white clothes were flying, his hair was messy, and his body was covered in blood.
"Senior Brother Hou, what should we do next?"
Li Xiuping, who was standing on the stone pillar, asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, a stone pillar suddenly struck and hit the stone pillar under Li Xiuping's feet. With a loud noise, the two stone pillars exploded, and countless dust rose into the sky, instantly drowning Li Xiuping again.
Hou Yongping froze on the spot, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Li Xiuping should also know that the situation was beyond Hou Yongping's expectation. He kept using his body skills to avoid the attacks of those stone pillars, and then said loudly: "Throw in all the powerful magic weapons you have."
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned.
They didn't understand what Li Xiuping was going to do, and they were also a little reluctant to give up.
All the spiritual treasures were hard-earned. They had spent a lot of effort. Some of them were even given as gifts by the elders of the sect. If they were taken out like this, once they were damaged, it would be a huge loss.
It would be fine if he could complete the assessment, but now he has not even seen the target required for the mission, and he has to reveal the treasure on his body. No matter who it is, he will hesitate when faced with such a choice, let alone even if he passes the first There are two rounds of assessments, and there are also second and third rounds of assessments.
On the Huayang Sect side, when everyone heard Li Xiuping's words, they took out all the powerful magic weapons without any hesitation. They can't think about that much now, they just hope to save Junior Brother Li's life.
"How to do it?" Xu Bansheng asked loudly.
"You directly drive these magic weapons to attack me."
Li Xiuping replied.
Everyone present was stunned.
The disciple named Lu from Jiuyuan Mountain suddenly said: "I understand, Junior Brother Li wants to use our power and himself as a guide to completely destroy this formation. But in this way..."
He didn't say anything further, but everyone understood what he meant.
With so many people attacking at the same time, and using the strongest force directly, if something goes wrong, Li Xiuping will definitely die!
At this time, if someone wanted to kill Li Xiuping, there would be almost no chance of Li Xiuping surviving. In other words, Li Xiuping was completely betting his own life to break the killing array in front of him.
As a result, the disciples of Huayang Sect could not help but hesitate, because this was too dangerous.
The strength that Li Xiuping has shown now is obvious to everyone present, so it is inevitable that some people will regard Li Xiuping as a threat and take the opportunity to get rid of Li Xiuping.
Even though the major sects seem to be harmonious nowadays, there are actually quite a lot of grievances in private. Even if there are no grievances, it is difficult to guarantee that these disciples do not have murderous intentions. Just as He Junlin said, Yunzhou's resources are only so few. One less person means one less person, and one less sect means one less sect.
To take a step back, even if no one has murderous intentions towards Li Xiuping, if they want to break the formation, they must not hold back, otherwise it will be impossible to destroy those stone pillars.
"If we don't take action yet, once the mysterious beast returns or the disciples from other sects take action, it will only be more difficult for us to complete the assessment." In the middle of the killing array, Li Xiuping spoke again.
Xu Bansheng gritted his teeth and reminded: "Junior brother Li, be careful."
After saying that, attack Li Xiuping first.
If anyone present knows Li Xiuping best, it must be Xu Bansheng.
Xu Bansheng knew very well that Li Xiuping would never be the kind of person who was willing to take risks just for the sake of assessment. In other words, Li Xiuping would never take such a risk without a certain degree of certainty. Anyone present might stop everything for the sake of the sect's honor, including Xu Bansheng, but they would definitely not include Li Xiuping.
To put it mildly, this guy cherishes his life; to put it harshly, this guy is afraid of death.
Even though Li Xiuping had fought to the death several times before, he looked incredibly brave, but only Xu Bansheng knew that that guy was forced to fight to the death, so he fought so hard.
At this moment, he couldn't understand Li Xiuping's thoughts, but he was willing to believe Li Xiuping.
After launching an attack on Xu Bansheng, countless people followed him to attack.
The Huayang Sect may still hold back, but the disciples of other sects have no such concerns at all and are merciless in their attacks.
As countless disciples took action one after another, the stone pillars that were constantly attacking Li Xiuping were directly destroyed by those magic weapons, while Li Xiuping moved between countless stone pillars, avoiding the attacks of those stone pillars, and using these stone pillars to resist Attacks from disciples of various factions.
Of course, Li Xiuping would not really believe in the disciples of each sect, but one thing Li Xiuping could guarantee was that before the formation was cracked, those disciples would never kill him, because only by breaking the formation could they obtain the mission. Target. This is related to the reputation of the sect.
Of course, this is a temporary situation. Once the formation is about to be broken, it is difficult to guarantee that these disciples will not take the opportunity to kill them. Therefore, Li Xiuping did not think about completely breaking the formation at the beginning, but left a part. As for whether the rest of the formation can block those disciples, it can only depend on the abilities of those disciples.
As countless disciples continued to attack, the stone pillars in the formation continued to be destroyed, but Li Xiuping's situation was not good either. After all, he had previously forced his sword to destroy five stone pillars, and then suffered heavy damage, and now he is still going on. It was miserable to avoid the attacks of those stone pillars and those disciples.
If Li Xiuping hadn't been fighting monsters for the past two years, and if it hadn't been for the existence of the abandoned disciple from Chaoxian Sect, it would be impossible for Li Xiuping to be alive now.
With almost half of the stone pillar destroyed, Li Xiuping directly restrained all his aura, no longer regarded himself as a target, and guided those disciples to attack him.
Li Xiuping's breath suddenly disappeared, and the formation was filled with dust at the moment, making it impossible to see clearly what was going on inside with the naked eye. Everyone could only stop attacking and stare at the formation with puzzled faces.
"Is Li Xiuping dead?"
This is what almost everyone is thinking at the moment.
The next moment, a figure suddenly rushed out of the dust and left the entire formation.
Li Xiuping is now covered in scars, his hair is messy, his clothes are torn, and he is covered in blood.
After Li Xiuping left the formation, he rushed towards the Huayang Sect's team while no one could react.
Now his situation is not optimistic. Once someone attacks him, he can't resist it.
Because of the arrival of Xu Bansheng and others, the Huayang Sect now has the most disciples. As long as he returns to the Huayang Sect, the disciples of other sects will not dare to directly confront the Huayang Sect even if they really want to take the opportunity to get rid of him. conflict.
The only one he can trust now is Huayang Sect. Li Xiuping cannot trust anyone else, including his four teammates.
Xu Bansheng looked at Li Xiuping, who was covered in scars, and did not ask. Instead, he was on guard against the disciples from other sects.
The disciple named Lu from Jiuyuan Mountain asked at this time: "Junior Brother Li, are you okay?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "Now half of the formation has been destroyed, and the formation is disordered. After it calms down, at least two-thirds can be destroyed, and it will be much easier to pass through, so let's see next Brothers."
The Jiuyuan Mountain disciple named Lu looked at the formation in front and nodded.
As Li Xiuping said, although he had left the formation, the stone pillars did not stop attacking and collided with each other. Stone pillars were constantly being destroyed. Although all the disciples were anxious, they could only wait at this moment.
Li Xiuping took this opportunity to slowly guide the sword energy in his body to repair his body, but unfortunately the effect was not very good.
This is the drawback of Li Xiuping's practice. Whether others are injured or depleted, they can directly absorb the energy of heaven and earth to replenish the body's consumption, but Li Xiuping cannot do this. He can only rely on long-term accumulation to let the sword intention in his body be absorbed. Replenish.
Because of this, the last time he was seriously injured in Chu Xincheng, although Qi Wenxing helped him treat it, the injury still recovered later than Xu Bansheng. This is because Xu Bansheng can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth anytime and anywhere to replenish and heal his injuries, and he cannot.
As for the time he was injured in Yunzhou City, the reason why he was able to recover so quickly was because that battle gave him an unprecedented amount of sword intent. Although he could not directly absorb the sword intent at the time, the sword intent was not completely lost. When the sword intent in his body was saturated, his body was forged like a sword.
It was also that battle that greatly improved Li Xiuping's strength.
Before arriving at Huayang Sect, Li Xiuping had to fight against a foundation-building monk with his life, but after arriving at Huayang Sect, he was able to directly kill an old locust tree at the Xudan stage, not just because of that old locust tree. Suppressed by Xuanmu Mountain, Li Xiuping's strength has reached a whole new level.
It's just that because of Li Xiuping's own cultivation method, he can't practice Qi, and there is no clear state. Therefore, no one can tell what kind of strength Li Xiuping has achieved.
As time went on, the movement of those stone pillars began to become smaller and smaller. After a while, there was no movement at all. The formation was already in ruins. Only one-third of the entire formation was not affected. Influence.
The disciple named Lu from Jiuyuan Mountain said at this time: "Everyone, Junior Brother Li has helped us break two-thirds of the formation, and it's up to us now."
After saying that, he walked towards the formation first.
With the disciple named Lu taking the lead, countless people also followed into the formation.
As these disciples walked in, the formation was activated again, but the power was no longer as good as before. With the cooperation of all the disciples, it didn't take long to destroy the remaining formation. Although some people were inevitably injured, But compared to Li Xiuping, it is much better.
All the disciples have passed through the formation, including the other four members of Li Xiuping's team, leaving only Li Xiuping alone.
Li Xiuping stood up at this time, took out a hair tie and tied his messy hair casually, and then tore off the tattered clothes on his body, revealing a body covered with scars but still tough.
Xu Bansheng took out a piece of clothing and handed it to Li Xiuping, then shook his fists at Li Xiuping as an encouragement.
Li Xiuping put on his clothes, put the hatchet on his waist, and walked forward.
Xu Bansheng and others stood there, looking at the disciples who had passed through the formation, and then looked back at the rear.
There, disciples from various major sects were fighting with the golden elixir stage mysterious beast.
When they left, it was obvious that the disciples were defeated, so they were asked to come over to check the situation. Now that so much time had passed, the battle was probably going to be even more fierce. There was no way that the mysterious beast could return at any time. At that time, Li Xiuping and others wanted to It will only be harder to pass.
After Li Xiuping and others broke through two large formations in a row, they continued to move towards the top of the mountain without encountering any further obstacles. At this moment, the top of the mountain was already in front of them.
The entire top of the mountain seemed to have been cut off by something. It was a flat open space. At the end of the open space, there were countless red flags fluttering in the wind, numbering in the hundreds.
Obviously, those flags should be the mission targets of the first round of assessment.
There were many difficulties along the way, and it took nearly four days. Now that they finally saw the target required for the mission, the disciples rushed directly towards the flags in front of them without any hesitation.
Li Xiuping stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the flags in front of him, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. However, he did not run directly over like the disciples, but walked forward slowly. Firstly, his body has not recovered yet and it is not suitable to run; secondly, they only have about twenty teams here, but there are hundreds of flags, so there is no need to worry.
This open space is very large, so looking from here, you can only see those red flags floating continuously, and as for the rest, you can't see clearly at all.
Li Xiuping, who was walking at the end, quickly frowned because the disciples in front almost all stopped at the same time and then began to retreat.
Obviously, something dangerous appeared in front of these disciples.
Li Xiuping's heart instantly became extremely bitter.
He thought there would be obstacles, but he didn't hope there would be. In fact, he really didn't have the strength to solve these obstacles now.
The mission goal is right in front of them, but the obstacles that appear can make these disciples retreat without hesitation. It can be seen that what appears in front of them is by no means terrifying.
