45: Chapter 45 You deserve to die!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

How could Bai Miyao be a match for Zhao Yi? She was sent flying by a single strike from the hoe.

It took a long time for her to stabilize her figure in mid-air. She looked at Zhao Yi with a grave expression,

"Middle Golden Core Stage?"

"This is impossible. How could someone who lost all their cultivation still achieve a Breakthrough?"

This completely overturned her understanding.

Behind Zhao Yi, Bai Chuanfeng was stealthily approaching, planning to launch a sneak attack,

"Quick, run!"

"His cultivation has been restored."

"What?"

Before Bai Chuanfeng could react, Zhao Yi suddenly turned around and appeared in front of him in an instant.

"You—"

"I—"

His cultivation was restored?

Bai Chuanfeng was already so terrified that he couldn't move.

"Heh heh!"

Zhao Yi grinned, his expression indescribably ferocious,

"Everything started because of you!"

"Die!"

Zhao Yi didn't even use the great sumeru treasure hoe; he used the Burning Star Burst Fist to directly blast Bai Chuanfeng into a bloody mist, as if this was the only way to vent the rage in his heart.

Bai Yunping and Bai Miyao were a step too late and could only watch helplessly as Bai Chuanfeng fell.

"Break for me!"

After killing Bai Chuanfeng with one punch, Zhao Yi did not stop,

Instead, he raised the great sumeru treasure hoe, treating the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array like a mine wall and hoed right into it.

Bang!

The Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array suddenly erupted with a bloody light, blasting Zhao Yi back hundreds of meters,

The great sumeru treasure hoe also flew out of his hand,

Bai Yunping, who had been staring at Zhao Yi, finally saw his chance. He didn't join Bai Miyao in attacking Zhao Yi; instead, he went to snatch the great sumeru treasure hoe.

"Hahaha, the treasure hoe has finally fallen into my hands again."

On the other side, Bai Miyao raised her twin hammers and smashed directly at Zhao Yi.

With the enhancement of Golden Core Power, the hammers became like small mountains. If Zhao Yi were hit, he would be injured if not killed.

"Come!"

A faint voice sounded in mid-air,

The great sumeru treasure hoe tightly gripped in Bai Yunping's hand instantly became ethereal and reappeared in Zhao Yi's hand.

"Holy crap! Holy crap!"

This scene shocked Bai Yunping and made him even more certain that this hoe was a treasure.

He just didn't know what level of treasure it was.

Over there,

The great sumeru treasure hoe had already blocked Bai Miyao's twin hammers.

hoe and hammers collided, sparks flying everywhere.

But Bai Miyao was only at the Early Stage Golden Core, and her cultivation wasn't earned through her own efforts, so she was naturally no match for Zhao Yi.

"Get lost!"

Zhao Yi parried the twin hammers and, with a surge of strength, sent Bai Miyao and her hammers flying.

"Break for me!"

Turning around, he raised the great sumeru treasure hoe and smashed it against the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array again.

This time he used the back of the hoe, not the blade.

It wasn't that Zhao Yi was obsessed with the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array, but because the Bai Family Cultivators were continuously pushing many Cultivators into the array.

During the time he was blocked by Bai Yunping and Bai Miyao, another thousand Cultivators had fallen into the array and melted into bloody water.

"Dammit!"

It wasn't that Zhao Yi was a saint who wanted to save these Cultivators, but rather that in battle, he wanted to destroy anything the Bai family was doing,

But attacking the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array twice only made the Formation vibrate; it caused no substantial damage.

Seeing Bai Miyao and Bai Yunping closing in again,

Zhao Yi grew furious.

"You forced my hand."

Zhao Yi sliced his chest, and a drop of essence blood flew out,

"Blood Sacrifice Curse!"

"With my broken body as fuel, and my essence blood as the guide, I offer this sacrifice to the world and all living beings. I am willing to trade all my cultivation for this one strike—Blood Sacrifice, Curse!"

The essence blood in front of him vanished instantly,

At the same time, a giant bloody palm descended from the sky and slapped directly onto the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array.

The original Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array was like a super large pot with boiling blood inside,

Zhao Yi's Blood Sacrifice Curse descended from the sky and pierced straight through the 'pot',

The bloody water in the array instantly leaked out.

Pfft—

Ye Qingyang, who was presiding over the array, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing three days of hard work go down the drain, Ye Qingyang was enraged,

His figure vanished from the spot instantly,

When he reappeared, he was in front of Zhao Yi, grabbing Zhao Yi's collar as if he wanted to swallow him alive.

"You really deserve to die!"

Grabbing Zhao Yi's collar, he slammed Zhao Yi from mid-air down to the ground,

Using the Blood Sacrifice Curse had already exhausted the Golden Core Power in Zhao Yi's body, and now with this slam from Ye Qingyang,

Zhao Yi almost passed out.

However, having broken the Sacrificial Refining Heaven Mending Array, Zhao Yi's goal was achieved.

"Run!"

Zhao Yi, who had fallen to the ground, did not hesitate for a second. His remaining Golden Core Power erupted, and he dove headfirst into the Third Layer Mine.

Without Ye Qingyang presiding over the Formation, it couldn't stop Zhao Yi at all.

After entering the mine, Zhao Yi didn't hesitate. He drew circles with both hands and chanted: "The Great Void is silent, without form or trace. The heart is like still water, the body turns into the netherworld. Heaven and earth are reversed, hidden in the formless. The world does not perceive, and all sounds are hushed."

"Immovable Void Technique!"

Seeing his body instantly become ethereal, Zhao Yi's heart finally settled.

He had gambled correctly; the Immovable Void Technique could be used inside the mine.

Just as Zhao Yi's body became ethereal, Ye Qingyang also entered the mine. Seeing Ye Qingyang walk straight through his body, Zhao Yi almost pissed himself,

Fortunately, everything was a close call but safe.

A moment later, Bai Yunping and Bai Miyao also entered the mine.

At this, how could Zhao Yi dare to move? He watched helplessly as the two of them walked through his body.

The three of them, led by Ye Qingyang, searched the mine for an entire month.

"This is impossible. Did he burrow into the ground or something?"

Ye Qingyang's face was grim.

"Is it possible he didn't enter the mine at all?"

Bai Miyao asked.

"Impossible."

"As a Nascent Soul True Monarch, although my Divine Thought is small, it's not non-existent. I'm certain he entered the mine."

Ye Qingyang kept signaling with his eyes,

Bai Yunping and Bai Miyao followed suit, nodding and saying loudly, "True Monarch, this isn't working. There are still so many things to settle outside the mine. Why don't we go out first?"

But none of the three moved.

This made Zhao Yi want to laugh; the trick was too low-level, it wouldn't even fool a child.

Another three days passed, and none of the four moved an inch.

"It seems he really isn't here."

"Let's go."

The figures of Ye Qingyang and the other two disappeared from the mine.

But Zhao Yi still didn't move, even though the Golden Core Power in his Dantian was almost gone, because he felt that Ye Qingyang wasn't that easy to fool.

Sure enough, seven days later, Ye Qingyang's figure reappeared, and Bai Yunping and Bai Miyao also stepped out from the shadows.

"Could it be that my feeling was really wrong?"

Ye Qingyang kept searching back and forth where Zhao Yi was standing.

"Let's go."

"If we don't go out, things will be in chaos outside."

Outside the mine,

Ye Qingyang had a cold face.

"Humph!"

"Hiding?"

"I'll see how long you can hide!"

"Since you don't want to come out, then don't ever come out."

"Earth-Shaking!"

"Seal!"

A white light shot into the Third Layer Mine, and in an instant, the earth shook and the mountains swayed.

Countless rocks collapsed, and the main tunnel of the Third Layer Mine near the exit was mostly blocked.

And that wasn't the end of it, Ye Qingyang took out another Talisman and threw it out.

"Suppress!"

That Talisman turned into a net of light, completely sealing the exit of the Third Layer Mine.

...

Another half a month passed.

Zhao Yi finally deactivated the Immovable Void Technique,

"Hiss—"

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

This was where the weakness of the Immovable Void Technique showed; one couldn't move while casting it. Now that the Spell was deactivated, Zhao Yi was stuck inside the rocks.

If his cultivation were any lower, Zhao Yi would have either suffocated or been crushed to death.

"Pah, pah, pah!"

After a lot of effort, Zhao Yi finally struggled out of the rocks.

"I'm free."

Looking at the sealed Main Mine Tunnel, Zhao Yi was dumbfounded,

"I can't get out?"
