Chapter 378: The obstacle is gone.
The four puppet warriors did not linger in battle. After eliminating the dozen or so rogue cultivators at the forefront, they stood motionless in front of the open gate.
"This……"
The group looked at each other, hesitant.
How come there are still guards here when we've arrived?
Although everyone's cultivation level is not suppressed now, they really can't tell what the strength of these four warriors is. But they killed more than ten Nascent Soul stage cultivators as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, which is enough to make everyone hesitate for the time being.
"Hmph, I knew this would happen."
Meng Yirou snorted coldly. Sure enough, this kind of great secret realm is not so simple. At this time, you can't be the first to stick your neck out. Whoever is the first to act rashly will be the one to be killed. Unless you are very strong, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be harmed by someone.
"What should we do now?"
Bai Feier noticed the atmosphere in the room suddenly turn cold again and asked.
"No rush, there will always be someone more anxious. It's not too late to let them test the waters first."
Meng Yirou whispered to Bai Feier.
Sure enough, about half an hour later, another dozen or so rogue cultivators joined together. They didn't want to wait any longer and decided to give it a try. This time, the cultivation level of these rogue cultivators was much stronger than the previous group, and the leader was a sword cultivator in the Integration stage.
The independent cultivators couldn't wait any longer. It wasn't something they, without any background or backing, could do by sitting back and enjoying the benefits. They had to be the first to act and try to get there first.
"Elder Baili, what do you think?" Prajna Swordsman asked Elder Baili. Among those present, Elder Baili was the most powerful in terms of cultivation. Elder Baili was looking at the four warriors with a solemn expression.
He waved his hand, signaling that they should not act rashly.
In fact, Elder Baili had no idea how strong these puppet soldiers really were.
We need more people to be cannon fodder and try it out before we can understand.
"Hmph, let Grandpa have a go at you!"
The Nascent Soul stage sword cultivator, wielding a massive blue steel blade, charged forward fearlessly, appearing to be a reckless fool. He led a dozen or so rogue cultivators toward the gate!
The blade, over ten feet long, tore through the air and then slammed into the older-looking of the four soldiers.
Clang!
The puppet was struck without even moving, and the blow even shattered the swordsman's weapon! Immediately afterward, countless sword lights and halberd shadows flashed across the sky, and the dozen or so rogue cultivators who rushed forward were cut down in an instant. Only two or three people managed to escape after losing their limbs and suffering serious injuries.
"This... is too powerful!"
"Damn it, we've come all this way, and there's still this kind of monster guarding the gate!"
Even cultivators at the Integration Stage were killed without any power to resist, which made the remaining rogue cultivators both relieved and terrified.
Such a formidable difference in strength made them realize once again just how terrifying these puppet guards were.
However, they couldn't just give up like that; after all, they didn't want to go home empty-handed.
"It's troublesome."
Elder Baili said coldly.
"What do you mean?" "In my opinion, these four puppet guards would require at least a Supreme Saint to have a chance of defeating them!"
Elder Baili could tell from just a slight fluctuation that any one of these four guards would be a death sentence if everyone present rushed at them, let alone four of them!
Four of them, it's obvious they can't get in!
Everyone remained silent upon hearing this.
The most holy?
There's no saint here. Unless we go and invite one now, we'll all be stuck here in an awkward situation.
As Elder Baili was pondering, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears, "Elder Baili, don't make a sound."
He was startled, because the voice was none other than the one he knew best—Sect Master Jiang Lingyun!
"Sect Leader Jiang, you're here?!" Elder Baili appeared outwardly calm, just as Jiang Lingyun had told him, but inwardly he was already excited.
"Well, I can help you eliminate those four puppet guards, but I won't do anything else after that, lest the other old folks start gossiping and saying I'm interfering too much."
Jiang Lingyun said indifferently.
"Get ready, I'll clear this way, and then you can rush in."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing Jiang Lingyun's words, Elder Baili, who had been pondering whether to send a signal to the sect for help, was overjoyed.
He is the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect, a seventh-level Saint, the strongest sword cultivator among the outstanding figures of this era!
With her intervention, these four guards can definitely be crippled!
"You, get ready." Elder Baili then turned around and explained to the Prajna Swordsman, Xuanyuan Sheng, and the other prodigies.
"...Yi Rou, you can go in soon."
On the other side, Bai Feier remained silent for a while, then whispered to Meng Yirou.
"Go in? How do we get in? The puppet blocking this door is very strong. The elders of my Qingyi Divine Palace said they can't deal with it."
Meng Yirou frowned.
"My master will take care of it, don't worry."
"Your master...you mean the Myriad Swords Saint Venerable is here?!"
Meng Yirou lowered her voice, but you could still tell how surprised she was.
Bai Feier smiled without saying a word.
The next moment, everyone felt as if a cold light swept past, so fast that no one could react in time. It was just a fleeting change, and then, the four puppet warriors blocking the palace gate...
Everything shattered with a crash, turning into flying debris!
"..."
Silence reigned, utter stillness.
Everyone stared in disbelief at what was happening before their eyes, except for those who had been secretly informed by Jiang Lingyun beforehand.
"It's now!"
"Come in!"
Elder Baili waved his hand and stood guard, while the Prajna Swordsman, Xuanyuan Sheng and other extraordinary forces followed closely behind!
"time to go!"
Bai Feier and Meng Yirou's team also set off immediately.
Once someone takes action, it motivates everyone else to join in; no one wants to fall behind at a time like this! So, before they even get close to the door, the chaos begins.
