67: Chapter 67 Three Kaiyuan Corpse Puppets Surround and Kill Yue Li, Who is Restrained by the Black Mist

High above, the giant face formed by black mist let out a silent yet heaven-shaking roar. The giant hand, composed of pure Death Qi and resentment, carried overwhelming might as it ruthlessly slapped toward Yue Li!

Yue Li's beautiful face was cold as frost. A gray-white beam of light suddenly condensed at her fingertips. No longer dispersing to clear the zombie tide, it transformed into an incomparably condensed pillar of light, meeting the sky-covering giant hand head-on!

Boom—!!!

Two terrifying forces, far exceeding the Kaiyuan Realm, collided violently!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a dull roar of energy annihilation!

Where the gray-white beam and the pitch-black giant hand struck, space twisted violently. Ripples spread out, pushing away the surrounding gray mist!

Yue Li's Soul Power surged, her clothes fluttering as she stood steadily in the air.

The black mist giant hand was actually held back by her, unable to descend even an inch!

However, the black mist giant face was clearly truly enraged. Death Qi churned on the giant hand, resentment surged, and power flowed endlessly, deadlocked against Yue Li's purification beam. For a time, neither could do anything to the other.

Just as these two existences, far exceeding the Kaiyuan Realm, were locked in intense combat, with the dissipated energy storm sweeping in all directions, Li Siwen and Xiao Xiner below were forced to retreat repeatedly by the sudden terrifying pressure and energy impact!

"Careful!" Xiao Xiner let out a sharp cry. Her Moonlight Sword Gang wiped out several zombie puppets knocked away by the energy aftershocks, and she grabbed Li Siwen's arm.

The two retreated rapidly, instantly moving away from the dangerous center of the battle circle.

However, they had just escaped the core range of the energy storm and had not yet had a chance to catch their breath.

The surrounding area, which had been temporarily cleared by Yue Li but was now neglected because she was occupied with the black mist, saw countless zombie tides once again surging forward crazily, like hungry wolves that had smelled blood!

Moreover, this time the zombie tide seemed to be empowered by the will of the black mist giant face, becoming even more violent and ferocious!

What was even more heart-stopping was that within the dense zombie tide, three exceptionally tall figures had appeared!

Their bodies were far more solid than ordinary zombie puppets, covered in bone-white armor, and the ghostly green Soul Fire burning in their eyes was incredibly intense. The aura they emitted had clearly reached the Kaiyuan Realm level!

Although not as strong as the one Xiao Xiner had killed before, they were definitely not comparable to ordinary zombie puppets!

The three Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets led the tidal wave of ordinary zombie puppets, encircling Li Siwen and Xiao Xiner from three different directions! Their speed was astonishing!

"Not good!" Xiao Xiner's expression changed.

The Yuan power she had taken the opportunity to recover just moments ago was instantly gathered. She held her yuehua longsword horizontally in front of her, her beautiful eyes filled with seriousness as she said, "Three Kaiyuan Realm! Junior Sister Li, be careful!"

Li Siwen's heart also tightened. The fengwu sword was unsheathed instantly, its crimson Sword Qi flickering unsteadily.

The surrounding terrifying Death Qi and resentment were like a tangible quagmire, pressing in from all directions, suffocating them.

The three Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets let out silent roars, carrying an aura of cruelty and bloodthirst, pressing closer step by step.

Countless ordinary zombie puppets bared their fangs and brandished their claws, the ghostly fire in their eyes flickering, forming a desperate fence of death.

The atmosphere was tense and dangerous to the extreme!

"Senior Sister, leave the left flank to me!"

Li Siwen let out a low shout and his figure flickered, actively charging toward the Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppet attacking from the left flank and the surging tide behind it.

He knew well that Xiao Xiner had consumed a great deal of energy just now and he had to share the burden.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiner gritted her teeth. Her Moonlight Sword Qi surged, instantly enveloping the two Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets on the right flank and the center, along with a large number of ordinary zombie puppets, into her sword stance range.

"Take care of yourself!" Her cold voice carried a trace of imperceptible concern.

The battle erupted instantly!

Facing that Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppet, Li Siwen dared not hold anything back.

His Mid-stage Marrow Cleansing cultivation erupted with full force, and the power foundation of his Triple Extreme Realm was poured into the fengwu sword without reservation.

The crimson Sword Qi no longer pursued range but was extremely condensed, transforming into incomparably precise red threads, specifically targeting the joints and Soul Fire fluctuations of the Kaiyuan zombie puppet!

Ding, ding, ding!

The Sword Qi collided with the bone armor, emitting ear-piercing sounds.

The Kaiyuan zombie puppet possessed immense strength. Every claw strike carried a sharp whistle that tore through the air, shaking Li Siwen's arm until it went numb.

His figure was like lightning, relying on exquisite footwork to dodge constantly, searching for flaws.

The surrounding ordinary zombie puppets threw themselves forward fearlessly, attempting to interfere, but were shredded by the Sword Qi Li Siwen casually swung out. However, the endless offensive also greatly drained his energy.

On the other side, Xiao Xiner was under even greater pressure!

She faced the two Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets alone. She danced her yuehua longsword so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through. The cold sword light was like a bright moon in the sky, constantly freezing and tearing apart the enemies rushing up.

But the two Kaiyuan zombie puppets cooperated tacitly, attacking crazily from left and right, constantly assaulting her sword net.

Countless ordinary zombie puppets surged forward like moths to a flame, consuming her strength.

Her face grew increasingly pale, sweat rolled down her forehead, and although her sword stance remained fierce, it was no longer as smooth and fluid as it was at the beginning. She was clearly struggling to hold on.

The two stood back-to-back, each defending against the enemies on their side. Sword Qi crisscrossed, and zombie pieces flew everywhere.

But there were simply too many in the zombie tide; they were endless, and those three Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets were like tireless killing machines, their offensive becoming more fierce with each wave.

Their activity space was constantly being compressed, and their defense line was tottering.

The shadow of death loomed over them like a tangible entity, and the atmosphere was tense and dangerous to the extreme!

High above, Yue Li, who was deadlocked with the black mist giant hand, keenly perceived the crisis below, especially the precarious situation of Li Siwen and Xiao Xiner.

"Master!" Her cold voice carried a trace of obvious anxiety for the first time. Her Soul Power fluctuations suddenly intensified, attempting to shake off the giant hand in front of her and dive down to the rescue.

However, the black mist giant face seemed to have anticipated this, emitting a cold sneer.

The deadlocked giant hand suddenly exploded, transforming into countless pitch-black chains, which coiled up like venomous snakes, instantly sealing off all of Yue Li's paths!

Yue Li let out a delicate shout. The gray-white beam cut horizontally and vertically, severing the chains one by one. But those chains were made of pure Death Qi, endless and inexhaustible. Instead, they coiled up even more crazily, dragging her firmly in place!

Just at the moment she was distracted dealing with the chains, attempting to break through by force—

Swoosh!

An extremely obscure, lightning-fast black mist spike struck silently from behind her, aiming straight for her back!

It was too late when Yue Li noticed, and she could only barely turn to the side.

Pfft!

The black mist spike grazed her arm. Although it did not hit a vital point directly, the terrifying Death Qi and resentment contained within instantly eroded her, causing her soul body to tremble slightly, and the gray-white light around her dimmed for an instant!

"Yue Li!" Li Siwen sensed her condition through their mental connection, his heart filled with anxiety.

"Master, I'm fine! You all..." Yue Li's voice carried urgency and worry.

"Deal with it first!" Li Siwen forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, his tone resolute as he transmitted, "We can hold on!"

His gaze swept rapidly over the three Kaiyuan Realm zombie puppets closing in and the endless zombie tide, his brain running frantically.

What should he do? What other trump cards were there?

Suddenly, his heart stirred, and his consciousness sank into his mind.

On the System panel, a number was clearly reflected in his eyes—

[emotion points]: 536827

The previous arena battle with Chu Youcai, and the series of incidents afterward, had unexpectedly accumulated such a huge amount of emotion points without him realizing it!

Perhaps... he could use this to do something!
