The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 782: Chapter 782: No One Escapes

Eight Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists, in a state of panic, went all out, fully unleashing their martial arts and secret techniques, with their Primordial Energy nearly driven to the limit.

Jing Yan’s body was enveloped in Primordial Energy, the dense energy coalescing and seeming almost solid, with a faint layer of purple light flowing around it.

Five attacks were smoothly dodged by Jing Yan, while the remaining three landed hard on the Primordial Energy defense that surrounded his body.

Three dull thuds followed immediately, and Jing Yan’s body violently trembled.

Seeing this, the eight Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists were overjoyed, their eyes lighting up.

For they saw that Jing Yan had not summoned a Defensive Spiritual Artifact and that around his body flowed only his own Primordial Energy.

Although five of their attacks had been evaded, three had still struck Jing Yan directly.

Relying merely on Primordial Energy to withstand the full force of three attacks from Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists was, in their view, absolutely impossible.

A martial artist’s physical body is very fragile, even those who have practiced the Body Refining Secret Method, using massive resources to strengthen their bodies to a level comparable to a Magic Artifact, cannot withstand a direct blow from an overpowering martial artist, let alone endure the attacks of Dao Emperor Realm practitioners.

Therefore, when they saw Jing Yan being hit, their spirits were greatly lifted.

In their opinion, even if Jing Yan didn’t die from such an assault, he would have to be severely injured. A few more attacks like that, and Jing Yan would surely be killed.

But what happened next left them dumbfounded!

After Jing Yan’s body violently shook, he only slightly retreated in the space and then stabilized his stance.

Struck directly by three Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists, Jing Yan’s Primordial Energy did fluctuate violently, with even the Fog Vortex trembling.

But relying on his unmatched Primordial Energy for protection, Jing Yan was hardly injured at all and didn’t even need to take Healing Pills.

Without any hesitation!

Jing Yan immediately launched a counterattack.

Since the opponents had all summoned Defensive Spiritual Artifacts, it was unrealistic to think he could kill them with one strike; it would take a bit more time.

”What?”

”How is this possible?”

Seeing that Jing Yan was unharmed, the eyes of the eight Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists almost popped out of their sockets.

How were they supposed to continue the fight?

Even if Jing Yan didn’t use a Defensive Spiritual Artifact and just stood there to be attacked, it would probably take them quite a while to kill Jing Yan.

But how could Jing Yan possibly stand there motionless and let them attack?

”Boom!”

Amid their shock, Jing Yan took the opportunity to slash down with his sword onto the Energy Shield of a Defensive Spiritual Artifact around one of them.

The Defensive Spiritual Artifact’s Energy Shield did not collapse, but the martial artist protected within was sent flying backward uncontrollably, spurting blood repeatedly.

He was not directly hit by the Sword Light, but the vibrations from the terrifying blow were too much for him to handle.

He quickly swallowed Healing Pills, his face pallid, eyes filled with terror as he gazed at Jing Yan and gasped for breath.

”Damn it!”

”This Jing Yan is too strong; we’re completely no match for him!”

”What should we do? If we keep on killing, even with the protection of defensive spiritual artifacts, we’ll still be in great danger!”

Their confidence had been completely drained.

”Let’s go!” a Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist with first-class combat power bellowed in frustration.

”Let’s go, this Jing Yan, he’s not someone we few can kill. Hurry back and report to the Ancient Family Ancestor!”

The eight people, shielded by their defensive spiritual artifact energy shields, began to retreat.

”Thinking of leaving?” Jing Yan sneered, ”Since you’ve come, don’t even think about leaving, just stay here! None of you ten will escape!”

Jing Yan focused on one of them, continuously wielding his sword to kill, while throwing out one miniature high-level trapping array after another.

As each array plate was thrown, it quickly encapsulated a Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist.

They indeed tried to avoid the coverage of the array plates, but because they had activated their defensive spiritual artifacts, their speed was far from fast.

They hadn’t gotten far before half of them fell into the miniature advanced trapping arrays. And once trapped inside the formations, their speed slowed even more, making it impossible for them to escape.

”Ahhhh...”

”Damn it, how does he have so many miniature advanced trapping array plates?”

”Quick, save me, I’m trapped and can’t get out!” The martial artists enveloped and trapped by the arrays cried out desperately for help.

For Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artists, even a large high-level trapping array wouldn’t pose too much of a threat, as they could brute force their way out of the formation in not too long with all-out attacks.

But, the high-level trapping arrays personally set up by Jing Yan, even if they were miniature, were far more powerful than ordinary advanced trapping arrays, so these Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artists couldn’t hope to break out in a short time.

One of the Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artists, seeing his speed severely hampered by the activation of the defensive spiritual artifact and noticing Jing Yan continuously throwing out array plates to trap all of them, realized it was soon his turn to be bound.

He gritted his teeth and withdrew his defensive spiritual artifact, aiming to break out of Jing Yan’s attack range in an extremely short amount of time. Once he made it back to the Ancient Family Mansion, he would be safe.

”Truly asking for death!” Under Jing Yan’s divine soul’s scrutiny, every move of these martial artists was monitored.

The moment that Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist withdrew his defensive spiritual artifact, Jing Yan noticed.

Activating Sky Wings, his figure flashed, rapidly closing in on that Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist.

Sword light thrust out, and black sword qi tore through the air.

”Ahh!”

That martial artist let out a tragic scream, as his body was directly torn apart. Not just that, but under the horrifying ravage of the sword qi, the physical body of that Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist turned to void in just a breath’s time.

Out of the ten Dao Emperor Realm peak, only seven remained. Five had already fallen into the binding array formations. The remaining two were also thinking about whether to withdraw their defensive spiritual artifacts and speed up their escape, but as soon as this thought emerged, they saw their Dao Emperor Realm peak peer who had withdrawn his protective artifact, annihilated by Jing Yan with a single sword strike.

That strike also completely snuffed out any thoughts they had of escaping by withdrawing their defensive spiritual artifacts.

Jing Yan turned his gaze to the two of them, a faint smile on his lips as he tossed out two array plates at the same time. The formations were activated, and the big arrays instantly enveloped the two men.

”Don’t be in a hurry, one by one!” Jing Yan charged towards the one he had been attacking all along, continuing his sword onslaught.

The defensive spiritual artifacts of these Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artists were of good grade, but they couldn’t withstand Jing Yan’s full-force attacks for long.

In just a few breaths, the first martial artist Jing Yan had set his sights on was severely injured and his consciousness became hazy, with healing pills having little effect.

His control over the defensive spiritual artifact waned significantly due to his severe injuries.

Then another sweep of black sword light shattered the energy shield of the defensive spiritual artifact, and with a coil of black light, that Dao Emperor Realm peak martial artist was left with no trace of his existence.

Out of the ten Dao Emperor peak, only six remained!
