Pao, Zhou, and Ning fell silent, seriously wracking their minds. They didn't believe this scar-faced man at all. He was most likely trying to break their fighting spirits, lowering their guards with false words so they could kill at the perfect time.
After all, there are more enemies to deal with than just their groups. Even Pao can admit he would use this kind of tactic.
The only thoughts flowing through Pao, Zhou, and Ning's minds were just how they could possibly overturn this situation.
At the same time, Huang Dai and Xun were also seriously thinking. However, they were instead focused on their bodies.
Within the short time the others talked, Huang Xun felt her bloodline arouse entirely on its own!
Streams of her Dragon blood soared out from her veins, directly teleporting into her Inner World.
Instantly, her Dragon blood pulsated and released a massive torrent of unfiltered Dragon essence!
The Dragon essence rushed towards the foreign Spirit energy as if it was its prey.
And while the foreign Spirit energy was potent enough to suppress even a Great Divine Sea's Inner World, it couldn't resist the Dragon essence!
Silently, without arousing any suspicions from the outside world, the Dragon essence vaporized the foreign Spirit energy, allowing Huang Xun's Inner World to reach back its full potential.
With the Spirit suppression gone, her Dragon blood flowed out of her Inner World, returning back to her veins.
Huang Xun kept her expression neutral, but internally she was a bit shocked.
But within moments, she was able to quickly identify what actually happened. 'Yes, now I get it. That Spirit energy was only the attainment of formation and suppression; it has no real attacking properties but can jump up realms because of its foundational Spirit Source Laws. Whoever made this formation must have Spirit Source Laws reaching the Divine level. As for my Dragon blood, its innate ability is to resist all forms of weaker suppression. Like father said, a Heavenly Rank Divine bloodline carries several fantastic abilities.'
Not only does her Divine bloodline contains excellent abilities, but it is also faintly connected to her Inner World, which allows for the natural resistance of suppression.
As her body returned to normal, Huang Xun snapped her gaze over to Dai and saw the same glint faintly shimmering in his eyes.
Huang Xun quickly transmitted to him, 'When it starts, lure them away as much as possible and use the concealment talisman. From there, we'll use our full power to quickly finish this.'
With a blink of their eyes, the Dragon siblings understood each other.
And at this time, Pao's voice transmitted into their minds.
'When they come out at you, hold them off as much as you can; we have a plan.'
Huang Dai and Xun naturally weren't going to follow this plan, but they gave short words of agreement.
Their whole interactions merely lasted for moments.
After only a short moment, Pao fearlessly stared straight into the scar-faced man's eyes, confidently saying, "This Spirit Formation really is a good one. Quite surprising to us, truly. But, do you really think we're simply of the average pile? We have our means as well!"
Simply giving in to their demands and handing over their spoils would be foolish.
Pao, Zhou, and Ning clearly know other groups like this one would simply kill their targets in the end to prevent future trouble.
Because of this, they have no option but to go all out!
'Chi!'
With a flash of purple, Pao, Zhou, and Ning instantaneously brought out glossy, black-steel swords.
Each sword had unique insignias marked all along and glowed with errie streaks of darkness.
Upon these black-steel swords' reveal, Pao, Zhou, and Ning's Divine auras greatly surged!
Their Inner Worlds erupted, releasing waves of powerful Divine Qi.
Formless air currents sprayed all around them, whipping the wind into a slight frenzy.
Even under the suppression, each of them could still show this amount of power!
Seeing the sudden change, Huang Dai and Xun focused their gazes solely on the black-steel swords. A glint burst into their eyes as they inspected the swords' insignias.
'This is…a Royal Grade True Spirit Weapon! How did they manage to uncover such a treasure? Moreover, their control over it isn't shallow at all. They're making use of at least 60% of its true power.'
Huang Xun analyzed, and Dai had similar thoughts. For just a bunch of average cultivators, they truly have some slight skills for having this.
Even the scar-face man's group instantly became more serious upon seeing these weapons.
"Hmph. No wonder you weren't intimidated for even a second. You had this kind of back-up!" A ruthless glint dazed the scar-face man's eyes.
Wordlessly, he and his other members brought out their own True Spirit Weapons.
Each of their auras wildly surged, releasing waves of Divine Qi. However, their momentum wasn't as grand.
Not because they were weaker, but rather their True Spirit Weapons were at a far inferior grade.
In fact, they were standard in this, having only Early Grade True Spirit Weapons.
The scar-face man had instantaneous thoughts in just a split moment, inwardly thinking to his other members, 'If they were at full power, we would have no choice but to retreat. But with this suppression, they're just putting on airs. At most, they're troublesome. Still, the wealth they obtained and whatever they have previous would be more than enough! Lan, kill that hodded woman. Tian, kill the hooded man. We'll stall these three until you finish. Don't delay!'
Opposing forces of Divine Qi auras clashed, causing streaks of friction to sparkle in the air. The sparks were similar to strong blades ruthlessly crashing against each other.
And when the scar-face man stopped talking, his group immediately sprung forth!
Each of them burst out with immense speed as they settled their gazes on their specific targets.
"Kill!"
At Pao's call, Pao, Zhou, and Ning similarly rushed head-on, their auras surging like a rising tide.
As for Huang Dai and Xun, instead of rushing head-on, the Dragon siblings sprang backward.
Without any hesitation, the duo split off from the group and from each other, heading in entirely separate directions.
The dead-end room they were in was actually quite spacious.
It had to be at least hundreds of thousands of square feet long, being more expansive than some Mortals manors. There was plenty enough space to have secluded fights without any worries.
As Huang Xun was flashing backward, Pao's group didn't even notice it since they had instantly engaged with the enemy.
But of course, Huang Xun wasn't left off.
Chasing hot on her tail was a pretty woman with a ruthless expression that'll send a shiver down one's spines.
In her hand, she was carrying a large purple lance that was covered in a faint purple glow.
This woman, known as Lan, cruelly smiled, restlessly pursuing Huang Xun like a wild beast.
Her Divine aura pulsated, her body gaining an ominous purple light around it as she boasted, "How foolish. You want to run? You want to resist? Heh! As you're feeling right now, this formation will only weaken you more and more. While we will all grow more powerful! In a few moves, I'll utterly crush you! By then, perhaps your body won't be too ruin for the leader."
The moment she finished speaking, the crushing momentum of a 3rdfall Divine aura swirled like a whirlwind!
Her quantity and quality of Divine Qi and Divine Law Source essence should feasibly surpass Huang Xun by a massive margin.
Furthermore, she should be heavily surpassed to a disparaging degree.
With these factors combined, Lan didn't think for a second this battle would last for more than a couple of moves. She was already expecting to see this hooded woman shiver in gradual fear, realizing the hopelessness.
And when her Martial Heart is fiercely shaken up, her combat prowess will drop even lower.
No mishaps should happen, allowing for a straightforward victory.
However, Huang Xun didn't respond at all to the mind tricks. Her Martial Heart was as firm as a Qi steel wall.
The only thing Huang Xun paid attention to was Pao's group battle. And when she detected significant surges of Divine Qi rushing about like a storm, she realized they were in a great heat of battle.
In this state, none of them would be able to spread out their Divine Sense far. They needed to have a complete focus, or else one mistake may cost everything.
Because of this, Huang Xun knows she has utter free reign.
Ice-cold killing intent rapidly surged within her Martial Heart.
Huang Xun was still silent as she surged more energy from her Inner World, causing her speed to tremendously grow!
She was nearly a trail of light as she sped back like the wind.
"You-tch!" Lan was a bit surprised, but her killing intent didn't falter in the slightest.
In fact, it only grew because Huang Xun was showing such pointless resistance!
The purple glow around her body and purple Lance slightly intensified, her speed rapidly closing in on Huang Xun.
When the chase reached a great distance from Pao's group, Huang Xun suddenly stopped.
Then, at the same time, she ignited her spatial ring, fishing out a gray talisman.
Crushing the talisman, a formless barrier covered her and Lan, extending out for dozens of meters.
Lan instantly stopped when sensing this barrier, her vigilance rising to a massive degree. If the other three can take out Royal Grade True Spirit Weapons, then their other colleagues were bound to have something of similar effects.
A cold feeling swelled in her heart as Lan inwardly tried to analyze it, 'That talisman, a spiritual barrier? Just why-'
Her lightning-like thoughts were surprisingly interrupted when a cold voice slithered into her ears like a poisonous snake.
"Thinking? That is indeed pointless."
At this moment, Huang Xun's whole demeanor changed. Her presence was like ice as all of her killing intent discharged like a volcano.
And at the same time, she released the full power of her Inner World!
'Bang!'
Her Divine aura exploded out, the ground beneath cracking from the sheer intensity of Divine Qi, the air swirling like razor-sharp blades!
A faint black glow burst out of Huang Xun's body, covering her like a demoness in the night.
Her crushing aura momentum wasn't able to break past the talisman's barrier but it was able to completely suppress Lan's 3rdfall Divine aura momentum!
"What?!?" Lan's eyes nearly burst from her socket.
All in an instant, she experienced a pressure that was greater than mountains, suppressing her body to the point she felt her bones creaked!
Lan tried to rapidly retreat, her legs trembling as she desperately wanted to move them.
However, she soon found moving her body was extremely difficult! The mountain-like pressure was utterly terrifying.
Within Lan's mind, thoughts were frantically surging. Her Spiritual Sea was frantic, causing her dread to increase by the second.
This type of Inner World foundation can only be seen in powerful Divine Ruler Holy Lands!
Just why the hell is someone like this in such a common area?!
