320: Doctor's Ambition

Before the words fell, the originally calm ground suddenly began to tremble violently.

Immediately after, sharp earth spikes, like lightning, rapidly drilled out from underground and spread wildly towards Bai Yuan and the others at an alarming speed.

These earth spikes shimmered with a chilling, heart-palpitating cold light, as if they intended to pierce and tear apart everything they touched.

However, facing such a sudden attack, Bai Yuan and the others did not appear flustered.

They were already in formation, fully prepared for battle.

Just as the earth spikes broke through the ground, everyone counterattacked almost simultaneously.

Bai Yuan lightly shouted, "Ice Phoenix Cone!"

Instantly, an extremely powerful surge of cold energy erupted from within him, condensing in the blink of an eye into a giant ice phoenix several meters long.

The ice phoenix was lifelike, its wings spread, and an bone-chilling cold permeated the air.

As soon as it appeared, it let out a clear and resonant phoenix cry, then flapped its wings and soared high, pouncing straight towards Doctor and the others like a white shooting star.

At the same time, Xu Hao was not to be outdone. With a fierce wave of his hands, his ten fingers instantly transformed into ten incredibly sharp blades.

As he swung his arms, wave after wave of extremely fierce blade energy continuously shot out, colliding fiercely with the incoming earth spikes.

Each wave of blade energy contained terrifying power, easily slicing and shattering the hard earth spikes one by one.

On the other side, Shi Lei was also busy. He focused his attention on unleashing his ability, and an invisible barrier slowly rose.

This barrier was as solid and thick as a wall of bronze and iron, capable of not only blocking the frontal earth spike attacks but also effectively guarding against sneak attacks from the shadows and other potential dangers.

As for Chen Qing, his body flickered, and he transformed directly into a giant eagle of enormous size.

He spread his wings and soared, whistling towards the backs of enemies like Xue Yi.

Meanwhile, several companions also shot out like arrows from a bowstring, following closely behind Chen Qing, clearly intending to seize this opportunity to forcibly rescue the hostages imprisoned by the enemy.

Standing not far away, Xue Yi was watching everything unfolding before him with a cold expression.

When he saw Chen Qing transform into a giant eagle and swoop towards him, the corner of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a disdainful sneer.

Just as Chen Qing was about to fly close, a Blood Disciple behind Xue Yi suddenly made a move.

"You can't take anyone away until we've investigated!"

That person directly met the charging members of Bai Yuan's team, while Xue Jiu drew his bow, condensing arrows with blood energy and continuously shooting at Chen Qing.

This made Chen Qing feel a great sense of crisis, and he had no choice but to constantly ascend and dodge.

"Protect these people well. Not a single one can be let go before Lord Eighth Seat arrives."

"Understood!"

The remaining Blood Disciple all looked at Li Mingxuan and the others. Now, only the five of them on the field had not yet made a move, and their stance was clear.

Xue Yi instructed coldly, while he himself looked at Doctor with a cold gaze, "I didn't expect you to escape here. Then I will be the one to capture you!"

With a tearing sound, his black robe was ripped apart, revealing his true form.

Instantly, whether it was Doctor or Li Mingxuan and the others, their expressions froze. Zhao Qianjun even gasped.

"Brother Xuan, can a person grow like that? Could it be the Beast God Sect?"

This was because Xue Yi actually had three heads, and his body had six arms, with no skin anywhere, only flesh and muscle.

At this moment, all six arms were holding long blades, and his entire being exuded a powerful aura.

"Kill!"

He rushed towards Doctor without the slightest hesitation, which made the suit-wearing men around Doctor all feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Earth Guardian!"

The moment Xue Yi approached, the suit-wearing man who had attacked earlier roared out.

The next moment, the ground trembled again, and a giant rock wall suddenly rose, actually intending to directly block the attacks of both Bai Yuan and Xue Yi.

"Rumble!"

As two explosions sounded one after another, the giant rock wall suddenly shattered. At the same time, Bai Yuan, Xu Hao, and Xue Yi had almost simultaneously approached Doctor's team.

However, the moment the three of them approached, those black-robed figures all let out a roar and transformed into beastmen or giant beasts.

There were giant wolves, huge red great birds, as well as Werewolf, bear men, or elephant men. Some had strong attack power, some were tough and thick-skinned, but they ultimately managed to stall the three.

Doctor just watched the chaotic battlefield with a blank expression, his eyes flickering as if he was contemplating something.

In the distance, Li Mingxuan stared intently at Xue Yi, or rather, at one of Xue Yi's three heads.

And that head seemed to sense something and looked towards him as well, but it was only for a glance before it plunged into the battle.

Suddenly, Li Mingxuan gripped his long spear, and a powerful Spear Style erupted from his body as he joined the chaotic battlefield.

His target was none other than the fiercely battling Xue Yi, whom he directly sent flying back with a single spear thrust.

"Yan Wang, I have also heard of your great name. The tasks you accept never involve indiscriminate killing of the innocent. I do not wish to be your enemy.

But if you stop me from killing the wicked, then you cannot blame me."

Xue Yi's voice was low, his eyes fixed on Doctor, but he had to take Li Mingxuan seriously.

This was because Li Mingxuan gave him too much pressure, even a deadly sense of oppression, but he still tightened his grip on the long blade in his hand and did not retreat or flinch.

"He Xiaopang!"

Li Mingxuan did not answer Xue Yi's question but abruptly called out this name.

Everyone paying attention here, including Doctor and the four of Zhao Qianjun, were also stunned, but after reacting, they looked back and forth between Li Mingxuan and this Xue Yi.

Upon hearing this name, Xue Yi actually lost his focus for a moment, but after a short while, he regained his senses, looking at Li Mingxuan with some confusion.

"You know me?"

"Are you He Xiaopang?"

Li Mingxuan's brows furrowed under his mask. After hearing Xue Yi's words, his Spear Style surged again, and his voice also became somewhat cold.

"Tell me, who are you, and what did you do to Xiaopang?"

This powerful Spear Style, mixed with terrifying killing intent, made everyone tremble. Chang Tingting felt it especially clearly, her entire body shaking.

Nangong Ya held her in her arms, her beautiful eyes looking at Bai Yuan and the others, as well as Chen Qing and a few others, finally fixing her gaze on Li Mingxuan, her eyes filled with worry.

"As expected of Yan Wang."

Doctor's eyes flashed with intense envy, "When I enter the holy war and kill all the ability users, I will become an existence stronger than everyone else, and completely treat this pathological world."
