Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 167: Xia Feng Pulled into the Black Vortex


"Wait, look at the seals on both ends!"

The sharp-eyed and attentive Celestial Sword Saintess quickly alerted everyone.

Everyone looked as instructed and saw that the black-purple seals on both ends of the path had dimmed considerably. It was apparent that the seals that were previously at the Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Saint had now weakened to the Celestial Tier Seventh Layer!

"It's these Resentful Beasts. After killing these Resentful Beasts, the seals will loosen..."

The Saintess of the Celestial Pill Sacred Land, Sun Yazhu, immediately analyzed the problem at hand.

"Alright, there may still be a way out, although we don't know who set up this outer core mechanism, as long as there's a way out, it's fine!"

Xia Feng nodded, the gloom on his face slightly dispelled.

Suddenly, a black sphere in the sky exploded, and ten Yellow Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign-level Resentful Beasts rushed out again.

This time, the battle was not as easy as before. These reckless Resentful Beasts were a significant hassle for any Martial Artist of the same level.

Although the ten women's realms were somewhat higher than the average Yellow Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign, they found it quite challenging when facing these Resentful Beasts.

Fortunately, the addition of Xia Feng acting as a crucial point allowed them to eliminate the Resentful Beasts one by one.

"Their strength is increasing too fast. Will they surpass the Yellow Tier Emperor Level?"

Extreme Ice Saintess Lin Wanqing looked worried, voicing a concern that troubled everyone.

"It shouldn't be... God Burial Valley has existed in the Great Xia Empire for so many years, and there's no mention of Resentful Beasts above the Yellow Tier in the outer area in the recorded data."

"If there were Profound Tier or even Earth Tier Resentful Beasts, they would definitely be in the inner area of God Burial Valley."

Purple Thunder Saintess Wang Yuwei shook her head.

"We'll know the strength of the Resentful Beasts that come out next."

Xia Feng gritted his teeth and angrily slew the last Resentful Beast with the Qingxue Sword.

Visibly, the sealing power at both ends dimmed once more, now only possessing the seal strength of Celestial Tier Fifth Layer Martial Sovereign.

Everyone looked up at the two black crystal pillars, simultaneously praying within their hearts, hoping that no Resentful Beasts beyond the Yellow Tier would appear!

If Profound Tier Resentful Beasts were to appear, apart from Xia Feng, the ten women whose strengths were sealed would be unable to deal with them.

This would be quite troublesome, and to counter them, perhaps only deploying those two Emperor Level Military Arrays could work...

About ten seconds later, the crystals on both sides released black spheres once more.

As they watched the black spheres about to explode, everyone couldn't help but swallow nervously.

"Pop!"

Soon, another ten ferocious and terrifying Resentful Beasts surged out from the exploded space vortex.

Feeling the strength of these ten Resentful Beasts, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thankfully, indeed, they won't exceed the Profound Tier."

Li Qingxue nodded, her highly tense nerves relaxing once more.

As long as they aren't beyond the Profound Tier, these Resentful Beasts can be controlled, and they can handle them.

Without saying much, the ten women engaged the Resentful Beasts once more, while Xia Feng broke them one by one on the side.

Soon, the crystals had released nearly the tenth wave of black spheres.

The group had killed nearly a hundred of these beasts.

The ten women were also starting to feel somewhat overextended, beginning to pant at this point.

They consumed the elixirs refined by Sun Yazhu, and after releasing their spiritual power, they prepared for the next wave of attacks.

The seals on both ends of the path were now nearly at the Earth Tier First Layer.

At this pace, they would only need to withstand five to six more waves of spheres before they could use the Ten Extremes Array to infuse Xia Feng with spiritual power, allowing him to forcibly break the seals.

Amidst the relentless attacks of the Resentful Beasts, Xia Feng was also pondering.

This place's mechanism couldn't possibly have formed naturally; since it's manmade, then who was the creator, and what was their goal?

With each defeated Resentful Beast, the seals gradually lifted.

Could it be that the creator's intention was for intruders to act as a Resentful Beast harvesting machine, purifying the air for the God Burial Valley?

Or perhaps...

Xia Feng fixed his gaze on the crystals on either side; if what he suspected was true, then those final waves of spheres...

Clenching his teeth, he shook his head, then continued to explosively charge at the nearest Resentful Beast.

Speculating here was useless; to discover the correct answer, he could only wait.

The twelfth wave, thirteenth wave...

Gradually, the sealing power at both ends of the path fell dramatically, reaching the final stage of Profound Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign.

The fifteenth wave arrived!

Xia Feng's eyes flashed, then he turned his head to look at the black sphere reappearing in the sky.

Soon, another ten terrifyingly ferocious Resentful Beasts traveled through.

However, the aura on these Resentful Beasts remained at the Yellow Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign, causing Xia Feng to pause in surprise.

"Was I wrong? This isn't a test, but merely a human-created machine for clearing resentful energy?"

Xia Feng scratched his head, sighed, and continued his massacre.

He had thought it was some powerful expert's significant challenge setting, with substantial rewards afterward.

Unexpectedly, it consistently remained Yellow Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign Resentful Beasts. Is this it? A test?

Any Profound Tier Martial Sovereign coming in could kill a dozen waves and leave. An Earth Tier Martial Sovereign could fight five or six waves and depart.

A Celestial Tier Martial Sovereign could simply wipe out a wave and withdraw.

To put it bluntly, it really was just a glorified air freshener.

Soon, the fifteenth wave of Resentful Beasts was also cleared by the group.

Before the arrival of the sixteenth wave of Resentful Beasts, Xia Feng immediately led to the end of the path to the sealed area with the ten women.

At this moment, the seal was only at the level of Profound Tier Seventh Layer Martial Sovereign.

"Now is the time!"

Xia Feng turned and called to the ten women.

The ten women understood immediately, arranging themselves according to the positions they practiced in their dreams. Subsequently, a circle of light with a spell pattern appeared beneath each of them.

"Emperor Level Upper Grade Array, Ten Extremes Array!"

Ten delicate voices sounded in unison, and the differently colored spiritual powers from their bodies soared to the sky, all channeling into Xia Feng.

Xia Feng took a deep breath, feeling his aura surge tremendously!

At this moment, he had the capacity to engage in a hard battle with a Profound Tier Seventh Layer Martial Sovereign!

"Break for me!"

Empowered, Xia Feng wasted no time, instantly drawing out the Qingxue Sword and fiercely striking the seals again and again.

The outer spatial seals shook intensely, releasing ripples as countless spiritual qi exploded in waves.

The combined might of ten Daos was simply too terrifying. With only nine strikes, the outer spatial seal was utterly shattered!

"Crack."

As the space shattered, Xia Feng revealed a joyous expression and quickly turned his head.

"The seal is broken, we can go!"

Yet, right at that moment, a terrifying suction emerged from the shattered seal, with a black space vortex appearing right before Xia Feng!

"Husband, no!"

In the instant Xia Feng turned, that terrifying, irresistible suction pulled him into the black vortex, right in front of the ten women's horrified eyes.
