Chapter 619: Death Ball

Chapter 619: Chapter 619: Death Ball

Elder Yin, even though he was trapped by various trapping arrays, could still see what was happening outside.

When he saw Gu Xinghe being cleaved to death by Jing Yan’s sword, he went mad with fury, his eyes bloodshot, his beard and hair bristling, and he screamed aloud.

His responsibility was to protect Gu Xinghe. But now that Gu Xinghe was dead, how could he answer to the Gai Family?

Hearing the thunderous noise behind him, Jing Yan smirked, flashed his figure, arrived next to Gu Xinghe, and collected his defensive Tao artifact and the Sumeru Ring.

The resources on Gu Xinghe were definitely not few.

Then, Jing Yan did not leave but turned around and returned to the vicinity of the array. If he fled at this time, it would indeed be easy, as Elder Yin was trapped and could not pursue him.

However, with Elder Yin’s strength, though these arrays could trap him for a while, they couldn’t kill him. It would not take long for Elder Yin to escape from the arrays and leave the Ancient Cave Mansion, and then the trouble would be great.

"Damn it!"

"You’re the one who should die! Bastard!"

"You little bastard, you’re done for! You’ve killed Young Master Gu Xinghe; now, there’s no one under heaven who can save you or save the Jing Family. Not only will you die, but everyone associated with you will die too! Die without a burial place!"

After raving madly for a while, Elder Yin gradually calmed down, his reddened eyes staring intensely at Jing Yan, as if wanting to eat him alive.

"Old fool, had you not made the first move trying to kill me, how could Gu Xinghe have died?"

"You attacked me; did you expect me not to fight back and let you kill me?"

"After you moved your hands, you also expected me to spare Gu Xinghe? Even if I spared Gu Xinghe, would your Gai Family spare me? Is that possible? Whether I killed Gu Xinghe or not, your Gai Family would relentlessly seek revenge on me, right? If so, I also need to get back a little interest, don’t I?"

Jing Yan said with a faint smile.

By killing Gu Xinghe, how could Jing Yan not know that he was in great trouble? But now, he could only take things one step at a time; thinking more was useless.

"Old fool, the person you protected is dead, now it’s your turn!" Jing Yan narrowed his eyes.

"You think you can kill me? Ha ha ... just with you?" Elder Yin’s eyes were about to split with rage.

"Boom!" Jing Yan didn’t waste any more words, instead striking directly.

The Dao Artifact Longsword slashed continuously, streams of blue sword light entered the array, aiming to slaughter Elder Yin.

"Puff puff puff!"

As expected, the blue sword light posed little threat to Elder Yin, and in a brief span, it was all shattered. However, compared to the situation outside the array, Elder Yin was obviously somewhat more disheveled. Those arrays had caused him significant interference.

"There’s a chance!" Jing Yan’s eyes flashed brightly.

Following that, he took out a black array plate and tossed it out.

It was an Intermediate Kill Array, extremely powerful, capable of threatening Dao King Realm martial artists. When the array was released, streams of black thunder crashed down toward Elder Yin.

"Damned little beast, how many array plates do you have?" Elder Yin panicked a bit.

Low-level kill arrays, he didn’t care about. But Intermediate Kill Arrays weren’t so easy for him. Those black thunders, wrapped with the aura of destruction, even for him, a peak Dao King Realm martial artist, were very taxing to resist. Moreover, each contact with the thunder temporarily paralyzed his body.

"Old fool, die!" Jing Yan crazily urged the sword light, practicing the secret technique simultaneously.

"Little beast! Little beast!"

"You... you’ve really angered me!"

"I want you dead! I want you dead!" Elder Yin’s body turned scorched, and his roaring sound grew louder.

Suddenly, Elder Yin took out a black sphere from his hand.

"That is..." Seeing the black sphere in Elder Yin’s hand, Jing Yan’s heart thumped violently, and a chill surged through him.

With a gentle shake of his arm, the black sphere in Elder Yin’s hand instantly exploded.

A Death Black Light, forming a black straight line and emitting a terrifying death aura, rushed toward Jing Yan.

This black line moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, contacted the array barrier.

"Danger!" Jing Yan instinctively activated the Intermediate Defense Array. The defense array formed a water-blue barrier wrapping around Jing Yan.

And just as the water-blue barrier was formed, the black light struck it.

That is to say, if Jing Yan had been a fraction slower, the activation of this Intermediate Array would have been too late.

Of course, if it weren’t for the array barriers around Elder Yin slightly blocking the Death Black Light, Jing Yan wouldn’t have had time to activate the defense array either.

The defense power of the Intermediate Defense Array was extremely strong. Once activated, the effect was incredibly astounding; even if a group of Dao King Realm martial artists attacked simultaneously, it could hold for quite some time.

One should know, like the great families in Lanqu County that Jing Yan had annihilated, their family arrays were just low-level defense arrays. Although Jing Yan’s Intermediate Defense Array was miniature, in terms of defense power, it was much stronger than a fully-formed low-level defense array.

The Death Black Light touching the formed water-blue light film of the defense array was indeed blocked. But Jing Yan’s body was sent flying backward with the blue barrier.

From this, it was visible that the impact force was terrifying.

While flying through the air, Jing Yan spit out several mouthfuls of blood, quickly took out some high-level healing pills to swallow, and stimulated his Pure Yang Spirit Body to its utmost limit.

"What in the world is this thing? How can it be so powerful?" Jing Yan looked at the Death Black Light outside the blue light shield with shock and fear.

It was terrifying!

The many array barriers around Elder Yin were all punctured by it. And although it was now blocked by the Intermediate Defense Array, the power was still terrifyingly potent. What would have happened if there was no defense array to block it, and it had directly struck his body?

He didn’t need to think about it—it would undoubtedly be certain death!

He almost died here! Thinking of this, Jing Yan also felt a chill of fear.

For quite a while, the water-blue light film formed by the defense array cracked.

Thankfully, the Death Black Light seemed to have expended all its energy, gradually fading and disappearing without a trace.

"Impossible!"

"It can’t be!"

"Even the Death Ball couldn’t kill you? Damn it! This is a top-grade Dao artifact-level Death Ball!" Elder Yin, still trapped by the array, roared again.

Death Ball!

Hearing Elder Yin’s shout, Jing Yan also recalled it. On the continent, there indeed existed an offensive Dao artifact known as the Death Ball, and it was single-use. Though it was a one-time-use artifact, its attack power was extremely astounding. It was said that even a careless Dao Emperor Realm martial artist might be injured by it.

And precisely because of its immense power, its value was extremely high, even matching or surpassing the value of regular top-grade Dao artifacts.
