235: One against five
The first step is to Cultivate to the Nascent Soul Peak; Cultivators at this Realm are adept at long-range combat, and all five of them are currently at this stage.
The second step is to Cultivate the Divine Soul to the Perfection Realm, which is the stage they are currently striving for.
Only the third step is to Cultivate the Physical Body until reaching Perfection in the Supernatural Power Realm.
Only after completing these three steps can one attempt to impact the Soul Transformation Realm.
Right now, the five of them are still at the second step; they haven't even Cultivated their Divine Souls to Perfection, let alone Cultivated their Physical Bodies.
Although they have five people working together, their strength is far from as formidable as Yan Feng.
Precisely because of this, the Physical Body Divine Ability "Formless Divine Art" that you suddenly unleashed was able to catch them off guard and take them by surprise.
However, you understand in your heart that once such a surprise move is exposed, it will be very difficult for it to be effective again next time.
After all, you are only at the Early Stage of the Supernatural Power Realm and do not actually pose much of a threat to Nascent Soul Peak Cultivators.
The reason they suffered losses at the beginning was purely because they underestimated the enemy and did not take you seriously.
Just at this critical moment, you suddenly felt a cold breeze attacking from behind your head.
It turned out to be that burly man waving a pitch-black long staff, smashing down towards your head with the force of a thousand jun!
However, as if you had eyes in the back of your head, your waist bent in an uncanny way, and the long staff narrowly swept past your nose.
Before he could change his move, you had already closed in like a nimble snake, striking his ribs hard with an elbow.
The burly man let out a muffled groan, his Protective Aura fluctuating violently, and he had to retreat several steps before barely managing to stand steady.
"Stop being so arrogant!" Nangong Feiyan shouted sharply, her goose-yellow figure sweeping over like a startled swan.
The long whip in her hand was like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, the tip of the whip carrying glimmers of cold light as it struck directly at the vital points all over your body.
The man with the folding fan also coordinated tacitly; as he waved his fan, dozens of wind blades whistled over, sealing off all your paths of retreat.
You were trapped in a pincer attack from front and back, but there was not a trace of panic in your eyes.
Just as the long whip was about to reach your body, your figure drifted like blue smoke, and you actually slipped through the gaps between the wind blades.
I have to say, the Spirit Movement Talisman from the Talisman Academy is truly useful, especially when combined with your light evasion boots; the speed is unimaginably fast.
"Careful!" Sima Tao warned urgently.
Before anyone knew it, you had already leapt into mid-air, your hands forming a sphere in the void, and the True Qi within you gathered frantically.
A condensed vortex of Qi formed in your palm, emitting a low humming sound.
"Fall!"
The vortex smashed into the center of the five people like a meteorite, and the shockwave from its explosion forced them to bring out their Magic Treasures to resist, throwing their formation into chaos.
Amidst the swirling dust and smoke, you landed gracefully, your robes fluttering.
You swept your gaze over the five people, whose expressions varied, and a cold sneer appeared at the corner of your mouth: "Three thousand Prodigies? Nothing more than this! With just this little bit of skill, you dare to dream of killing me to curry favor with certain people?"
After these few rounds of fighting, you already had a clear idea of their strength.
If it were before your closed-door Cultivation, you would indeed have struggled to deal with the five of them working together, but times are different now—
You now have endless means at your disposal; although their Spells are strong, you use the power of Dao Patterns to drive your movement technique, and combined with the Magic Treasure light evasion boots and the Spirit Movement Talisman, you can easily avoid them.
What's more, you still have the "Body Manifests Myriad Forms" illusion technique; no matter how fierce their attacks are, it is all in vain if they cannot hit you.
After all, they are not Spirit Transformation Cultivators and cannot deploy a Law Domain that controls heaven and earth—in that kind of Domain, even if you could teleport, it would be of no use.
Moreover, they do not have a special Physique like Yan Feng, nor do they possess Thunder-type Divine Abilities—that Thunder method not only has astonishing speed and powerful might, but it also restrains your movement techniques and means.
However, you also know that being besieged by five people is not suitable for a protracted battle.
Sure enough, they quickly found a countermeasure.
Only hearing Sima Tao shout loudly: "Cai Yi, Chu Fan, Aoxue, you block his retreat, restrict his movement technique, and at the same time destroy his Clones!"
He then turned to Nangong Feiyan: "Feiyan, you and I will join forces; no need to hold back anymore."
As soon as his words fell, Cai Yi, Chu Fan, and Aoxue immediately scattered, each occupying a position, and unleashed a sky full of Talismans, lightning, and flames, surrounding you completely.
Your "Body Manifests Myriad Forms" Clones instantly dissipated under the interweaving of lightning and fire.
Having lost the cover of your Clones, you were instantly exposed to everyone's attacks.
Sima Tao's crimson Flying Sword turned into three giant flaming pythons, baring fangs and brandishing claws as they pounced towards you.
Nangong Feiyan's long whip danced so densely that not even a drop of water could pass through, with layers of whip shadows sealing off all the space around you.
Aoxue's bronze treasure mirror hung high above her head, shooting down a beam of light that solidified the Void Realm, making your movements sluggish.
Cai Yi's pitch-black long staff grew in the wind, pressing down on your head like a pillar supporting the sky!
Chu Fan waved his folding fan gently, and dozens of hidden weapons shot towards you like meteors.
You knew you could not delay any longer and immediately decided to fight for your life.
The "light evasion boots" at your feet flashed with spiritual light, you exerted your movement technique to the limit, the power of the Spotless Sword Body operated to the extreme, and the power of Dao Patterns along with the majestic Nascent Soul Power were simultaneously injected into the youguang sword.
You chose the direction where Chu Fan was and thrust your sword—
The youguang sword tore through the sky like lightning, taking aim directly at Chu Fan with a piercing sound of breaking through the air.
Chu Fan was instantly shocked.
He never expected that you would actually not dodge or evade, risking injury just to take his life first!
In an instant, the youguang sword turned into a barrier of sword light, and those incoming hidden weapons crashed into the sword light, making crisp clanging sounds as they were all deflected.
The encirclement in this direction was actually broken by your sword!
The youguang sword was like a ray of aurora, carving out a graceful arc, and instantly pierced through his body.
The moment he was pierced by the sword tip, his protective Jade Talisman automatically activated, and a majestic force of time and space wrapped around him, sending him out of the Secret Realm with a hum.
Just as Chu Fan disappeared—
Your protective Magic Treasure, the Black Armor, sensed a fatal threat, and amidst a humming sound, it bloomed with dazzling golden light, and a solid golden light shield instantly expanded, firmly protecting you.
"Boom—!!!"
The Magic Treasures of the other four people bombarded the light shield simultaneously!
The golden light shield trembled violently, its surface instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks, emitting a piercing wail.
The huge impact force came through the light shield, you felt a sweetness in your throat, and your whole body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing through several ancient trees before you could barely steady your figure.
The golden barrier formed by the Black Armor quietly faded away after completing its mission, evidently having suffered great damage to its spirituality.
"His protective Magic Treasure is destroyed, he won't last long! Attack with all your might!" Sima Tao, with a vicious eye, immediately saw through your true state and shouted sternly.
