Chapter 781: Chapter 781: One Sword, One Kill

Jing Yan entered Flowing Light City alone, and upon seeing this, many members of the Glory Alliance became increasingly agitated.

The attack on the city’s Formation intensified.

Because the wise ones clearly understood one thing, if Alliance Leader Jing Yan died, the majority of them here would stand no chance against the Gu Family’s pursuit.

The Gu Family would not let them leave easily.

Even Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists would have great difficulty breaking out. The Gu Family members would definitely pay special attention to Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners, especially Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists.

Yet, even with their fiercest attacks, the complete destruction of the Big Array was still far away.

"Damn it!"

"What exactly is the Alliance Leader doing?"

Roars arose from all directions.

At this moment, Jing Yan within the city had reached the nearest Array Base.

"Break!" A horizontal sword strike covered with Sword Light.

The materials used for the Array Base were sturdy, but with one slash from Jing Yan, this Array Base was instantly destroyed.

As the Array Base was breached, the Big Array operating inside and outside the city momentarily came to a halt. The Array Base was the core of a Big Array, and with the core destroyed, the Formation’s energy could no longer converge, naturally disabling it from continuing to operate and exert its Power.

Destroying an Array Base, Jing Yan’s gaze sharpened as he looked towards another location.

"Continue!" Jing Yan shot forth in a flash.

Despite Flowing Light City’s vastness, how swift was Jing Yan’s speed when propelled by the Sky Wings? To move from one Array Base to another, it took merely a few breaths’ time.

In a short span, Jing Yan successively broke three Array Bases, including two that were Array Bases for the Attack Array and one for the Defense Array.

The Attack Array posed the greatest threat to the members of the Glory Alliance, and it was also Jing Yan’s priority to destroy.

After the three Array Bases were disabled, the ten Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners sent by Gu Wanquan to encircle and kill Jing Yan finally arrived!

Among these ten individuals, three belonged to the Gu Family forces, while the other seven were helpers from the Six Great Families.

The ten encircled Jing Yan, their eyes cold.

They also knew of Jing Yan’s reputation; even if they might not have seen Jing Yan in person, they had heard about the events that transpired at the Splendid Dojo Pill Conference.

The deeds of killing Tong Yue had already spread throughout the entire Heavenly Origin Continent.

All ten were Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists with extremely strong abilities. Had they been asked to fight Jing Yan one-on-one, they might have lacked confidence. But now, with ten of them joining forces together, plus the suppression of the City’s Big Array on Jing Yan, how much strength could Jing Yan exert?

So, in their eyes, Jing Yan was as good as dead, practically a walking corpse.

"Jing Yan, today is your day to die!"

"Entering Flowing Light City alone, truly courting death!"

"Haha, being able to personally slay the number one genius of the Heavenly Origin Continent is also something worth celebrating!"

The ten surrounded Jing Yan, speaking one after another, some with mocking tones.

"So much nonsense!"

"Gu Family people, anyone helping the Gu Family, must die!"

Jing Yan took immediate action, casting the Holy Light Sword Technique and the Nihility Secret Method. This strike of his was not a probe.

Jing Yan wanted a swift battle and a swift conclusion!

A Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner clad in a black robe saw the space around him suddenly alter, and a powerful black Sword Light abruptly emerged.

"Hmph, we are all aware of your attack method, thinking you can ambush me? Ridiculous!" The Martial Artist in the black robe was familiar with Jing Yan’s mode of attack, so upon seeing the sudden emergence of Sword Light, he showed no sign of panic.

"Shh!" While he was speaking, he was already employing his Martial Arts in an attempt to defend.

But how could Jing Yan, who had now ascended to the Dao Emperor Realm Peak, be withstood by his strength? Unless he used a Defensive Spiritual Artifact, these Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists were simply no match for Jing Yan in a head-on confrontation.

It wasn’t just them, even First-class fighters like Zheng Sanxiao and others couldn’t withstand Jing Yan’s full-powered strike. With some luck, they might survive but would surely be gravely injured. With less luck, that one strike could directly execute them.

And this black-robed Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner, who wasn’t even at First-class combat power, found his defense effortlessly torn apart by that one sword strike.

As the Sword Light swept through, the aura of the black-robed Martial Artist coalesced sharply, then rapidly dissipated.

With a single swing, a Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artist met his death.

The whole process took but a breath’s time.

Within a single breath, a Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artist lay dead on the spot.

The remaining nine Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists had not yet reacted until the black-robed Warrior fell to the ground, at which point their hearts all skipped a beat.

"This..."

"How is this possible?"

"He killed Brother Mao with one sword? Brother Mao’s strength was even stronger than mine!"

"Ah! Damn it, this Jing Yan really is a monster! Everyone be careful!"

The remaining nine people, shocked and alarmed, called out one after the other.

They thought they would easily handle Jing Yan, who had entered the city and was suppressed by the Big Array, with the ten of them joining forces. However, they didn’t expect that right after an initial exchange, one of them would be dead.

Almost simultaneously, these nine people unveiled their Defensive Spiritual Artifacts.

Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists, all very experienced in combat, immediately brought out their Defensive Spiritual Artifacts at the first sign of trouble.

However, fast as their actions were, the speed of the Nihility Secret Method was faster.

The black Sword Light flashed again, a grey-robed elder, while activating his Defensive Spiritual Artifact, was overwhelmed by the Sword Light.

Another had died.

As the grey-robed elder was slain, the remaining eight quickly succeeded in activating their Defensive Spiritual Artifacts, each of them surrounded by layers of light halos of various colors.

"Brother Ma?"

"Brother Ma, what’s happened to you?"

While the other eight had their Defensive Spiritual Artifacts activated, the grey-robed elder stood rigidly in place, motionless. They all turned to look and called out.

Amidst their cries, the grey-robed elder also fell to the ground.

This made the hearts of the eight surviving Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists clench fiercely.

"Act quickly, kill Jing Yan; the longer we delay, the worse it is for us. Damn it, his strength is too fearsome, even under the suppression of the Array!" screamed a female elder in a red robe, her voice grating.

In fact, without her saying, the others were also aware they needed to attack Jing Yan.

The eight launched their attacks simultaneously. Among these eight, three were First-class Dao Emperor Realm Peak fighters, and their attack power was also terrifyingly strong. Even if Jing Yan faced them head on, he would not find it easy.

Activate Sky Wings!

Being restrained by many Binding Array Formations, the speed of the Sky Wings was greatly affected.

Of the eight attacks, Jing Yan managed to dodge five, but the remaining three struck simultaneously as Jing Yan’s Primordial Energy collided with them.
