346: siege

The beautiful woman also sneered.

"Just you? A mere Five-Star Martial Venerable, yet you dare to speak such arrogant words!"

Li Changbai stepped forward, chuckling softly.

"What if you add me?"

"A Two-Star Martial Venerable? With such weak strength, you still dare to step out?"

Li Changbai chuckled, "My strength isn't just about Qi! White Night Art!"

This "White Night Art" was also a Soul attacking Martial Skill, ranked low-grade heaven rank, passed down to him by Jiang Taishen.

Feeling the powerful Soul Power emanating from Li Changbai, the beautiful woman was greatly astonished.

"Early Heaven Realm? How is this possible!"

"Under normal circumstances, only Saints can possess a Heaven Realm Soul. Even that old fellow who sealed me had only just broken through to the Heaven Realm. How could you, a Two-Star Martial Venerable, possibly achieve this?"

Li Changbai chuckled softly.

"The Tianyuan Continent is vast and boundless; it's understandable for a few Geniuses to appear occasionally."

With that, he stopped talking nonsense and fully activated his Soul Power. A white sun appeared above his head.

"You wouldn't dare!"

The beautiful woman let out a sharp cry, and a streak of Qi flew towards Li Changbai.

"Stop her!"

Wang Yuan shouted.

The three of them attacked simultaneously, unleashing their strongest strikes.

Under their combined efforts, they barely managed to block the beautiful woman's casual attack.

Seeing Li Changbai's white sun about to fully condense, the beautiful woman's heart sank, and she hastily activated her Soul Power for defense.

Five seconds later, a white sun shot out towards the beautiful woman, fiercely colliding with her Soul shield.

The beautiful woman immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her Soul shield shattered, and she lost control of her body.

Wang Yuan and the other two were all greatly astonished, not expecting Li Changbai to be so powerful.

"Take this chance, hurry!"

The three of them simultaneously unleashed their strongest attacks, and several streaks of Qi slammed into the beautiful woman's body.

"Word Spirit, Crimson Sun!"

Li Changbai wasn't idle either; he activated "Crimson Sun."

Thousands of fireballs shot out towards the beautiful woman.

As the four people's attacks landed on the beautiful woman, she let out a mournful cry, transforming into a streak of light and dissipating. A white Medicinal Pill appeared in the air.

Wang Yuan stood at the very front, taking a step ahead to retrieve the white Medicinal Pill into his hand.

Li Changbai frowned and loudly said, "Xu Qing, Junior Brother, come over quickly!"

The forces from the four Sects had all gathered.

They stood behind their respective leaders, forming a standoff.

Li Changbai said in a deep voice, "Wang Yuan, hand over the yin-yang dragon power pill! Among everyone present, my strength is the greatest, and my contribution is the largest. This yin-yang dragon power pill should rightfully belong to our Lingyun Sect."

Wang Yuan sneered.

"Li Changbai, you're thinking quite beautifully! However, I'm afraid you haven't seen the situation clearly yet!"

As Wang Yuan finished speaking, the forces from the other three Sects suddenly changed their formation, surrounding the three members of the Lingyun Sect.

As this change occurred, Li Changbai and the other two were all greatly astonished.

Li Changbai said in a deep voice, "Wang Chen, Li Fa, have you and the Yinkui Sect been colluding for a long time?"

Wang Yuan sneered, "What else?"

"It's a pity the Qingnang Sect's people were eliminated by you ahead of time, otherwise the current situation would be even more interesting. Even before entering the Immortal Cave, our four great Sects reached a consensus to combine the strength of the four Sects and destroy the Lingyun Sect. When we leave the Immortal Cave, that will be the time for war."

"But unfortunately, Li Changbai, you won't live to see that moment!"

Li Changbai snorted coldly.

"Heh heh! Seven low-star Martial Venerables want to kill a Heaven Realm Soul? You overestimate yourselves too much, don't you?"

Wang Yuan sneered, chuckling, "Li Changbai, I'm afraid you've forgotten the foundation of our Yinkui Sect, haven't you?"

With that, Wang Yuan summoned two Puppets.

These two Puppets both possessed the strength of a Five-Star Martial Venerable.

The other two powerful individuals from the Yinkui Sect also each summoned two Puppets.

"Thirteen low-star Martial Venerables against one Heaven Realm Soul, Li Changbai, what do you think?"

Seeing this, Li Changbai's expression turned ashen.

"Wang Yuan, you truly think highly of me, Li Changbai!"

Wang Yuan chuckled, "I'm sorry, but our Yinkui Sect always acts meticulously!"

Li Changbai said in a deep voice, "Xu Qing, Junior Brother, give me some time!"

"Word Spirit, Dustless Land!"

The three of them shouted in unison.

Three colorless barriers expanded from within their bodies, then merged into a larger, more stable barrier.

Seeing this, Wang Yuan also frowned and said in a deep voice, "The Word Spirit Power of the Lingyun Sect is indeed incredibly strange. Two low-star Martial Venerables and one Martial Ancestor can actually unleash such powerful strength."

"Attack together, don't give them any chance!"

At Wang Yuan's command, the seven Martial Venerables and six Puppets all launched an attack on Li Changbai and the other two.

Ripples spread across the colorless barrier, and soon cracks appeared.

But Li Changbai had no intention of relying solely on the "Dustless Land" to block everyone's attacks.

He was already constructing an Eighth-Grade Spirit Formation.

After breaking through to the Heaven Realm, Li Changbai's Soul Power had completely transformed. Maintaining the Word Spirit while setting up an Eighth-Grade Spirit Formation was no problem at all.

Thirty seconds passed quickly.

Just as the colorless barrier buckled under the pressure and shattered with a bang, Li Changbai's "Black Tortoise Spirit Guarding Formation" was also completed, taking over the defensive duties.

Xu Qing and Lu Xingchen both simultaneously spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, their auras significantly weakened.

With the "Dustless Land" broken, they also suffered a backlash.

Li Changbai's expression darkened, and he softly said, "Xu Qing, Junior Brother, are you alright?"

Lu Xingchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "I'm fine, just a minor injury. Senior Brother, can you hold on?"

Li Changbai chuckled, "Are you kidding? I have a Heaven Realm Soul. When I go all out, no one below the Saint level can break through my defense!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "It's a good thing you broke through to the Heaven Realm, otherwise, all three of us would have died here."

Outside the Spirit Formation, Wang Yuan's expression was also gloomy.

"Damn it, Li Changbai is really lucky! Not only did he break through to the Heaven Realm, but he also eliminated the Qingnang Sect's people in advance. Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long!"

Li Yi said in a deep voice, "What do we do now? If we can't eliminate Li Changbai here, we will definitely face the Lingyun Sect's furious retaliation!"

Wang Yuan said sharply, "No matter, we'll wear him down!"

"Even though he broke through to the Heaven Realm, Li Changbai is only one person. If we attack in turns, we can definitely exhaust his Soul Power. Victory will ultimately be ours; it just requires some time to wait."

Li Yi smiled wryly, "That's all we can do!"

And so, the forces of the three Sects attacked the "Black Tortoise Spirit Guarding Formation" in turns, while Li Changbai continuously condensed Spiritual Seals and repaired the Spirit Formation. Both sides were locked in a stalemate.
