Chapter 784: Through the Outer Perimeter
Due to the intense battle just now, Xiao Ye had used the Xiao Blade too many times, and the fusion King Martial Power within him had been completely depleted. Now that these ferocious beasts attacked, even if he used the Great Success King Martial Power, he would definitely sustain serious injuries.
"Junior Brother Xiao Ye, step back, we'll take you further ahead!"
Seeing Xiao Ye's condition, the sixteen devilish disciples clearly noticed it, rushed forward to shield Xiao Ye from the front, intercepting all those ferocious beasts, and then a brutal battle ensued.
Xiao Ye had helped them numerous times along the way, and naturally, they were grateful.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Ye took out dozens of King Crystals and swallowed them all at once, operating the Four Emperor Skills and Heavenly Treasure Record, quickly replenishing the depleted King Martial Power.
Unfortunately, under such circumstances, there was simply no time to replenish the consumed King Martial Power.
Soon, the sixteen devilish disciples blocking in front of him fell into a bitter struggle.
Their cultivation was indeed powerful, their strength equally terrifying. In a one-on-one situation, they definitely wouldn't be weaker than any King Martial Realm beast, even able to easily slay them.
But the number of beasts was too many, they could strike down one, only for two more to charge forward, strike down two, and four more beasts would pounce.
Unless they could do like Xiao Ye and kill a beast in one move, staying there was extremely dangerous, no matter how strong the cultivation was.
In just a matter of tens of breaths, a devilish disciple was sent flying with a scream, falling into a pool of blood, then overwhelmed by ferocious beasts that swarmed in.
Seeing this, Xiao Ye's pupils suddenly constricted, then he became enraged.
A vibrant life just vanished before his eyes, and he was from the same sect, the same main hall.
Even if he was not familiar with these devilish disciples, far from being friends, at this moment, they were still comrades, partners. Now being killed by ferocious beasts, it was hard for anyone to bear.
The remaining fifteen devilish disciples, hearing the screams echoing in their ears, turned deathly pale.
They too couldn't accept their fellow disciples being killed by ferocious beasts.
But their situation wasn't much better; three of the weakest devilish disciples were already on the verge of collapse, ready to fall at any moment.
"Damn it, we'll fight these beasts to the death!"
Xiao Ye roared angrily, mobilizing the fusion King Martial Power that had been painstakingly recovered a bit, wielding the Xiao Blade and sweeping it out. Instantly, thunder rumbled, shocking the heavens, weeping ghosts and gods, with a sharp peerless edge, instantly killing the ten ferocious beasts charging at them, giving the fifteen devilish disciples a temporary respite.
Unfortunately, this didn't solve any crisis. The Law Enforcement Elders of the Holy Palace were currently in a fierce battle with the Emperor Martial Realm beasts, completely unable to look after them.
They could only rely on themselves!
"Ah!"
Xiao Ye looked up and roared, hair flying wildly, as the Three-in-One Fusion King Realm rose behind him, supporting a piece of heaven and earth. He frantically squeezed the Fusion King Realm's energy, slaying several more ferocious beasts.
At the same time, the glow of the Three-in-One Fusion King Realm dimmed, unable to draw out any more King Martial Power, completely exhausted.
Xiao Ye's actions drew the attention of all the ferocious beasts, and suddenly, more than a dozen King Martial Realm beasts charged at him, while the fifteen devilish disciples were all held back, with no one able to come to Xiao Ye's aid.
"Hmph, you beasts think this is enough to make me, Xiao, fear you?" Xiao Ye's face was full of defiance, operating the Great Success King Body, releasing all purple light, sweeping across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, ready to fight these ferocious beasts to the death with the Great Success King Body.
Boom!
But at this moment, an intense heat flowed within Xiao Ye, swiftly coursing through his body, and a tremendous King Martial Power surged from him, accompanied by a terrifying gale, halting the charging beasts.
"This... this is Wind Attribute King Martial Power!" Xiao Ye was stunned, his face filled with disbelief.
Since coming to the Sub-palace of the Ultimate Palace, his mind had been tense, always using the Three-in-One King Martial Power. The Wind Attribute King Realm, having undergone a bizarre mutation after devouring some Emperor's Blood, had been left aside by him, never remembering to use the Wind Attribute King Martial Power.
After all, how could a single type of King Martial Power compare to a Fusion King Martial Power?
Plus, Xiao Ye had yet to comprehend the secret techniques for Fusion King Martial Power in the Four Emperor Skills King Martial Scroll, so he never used the Wind Attribute King Martial Power.
But unexpectedly, this time the Wind Attribute King Martial Power activated automatically, achieving such a terrifying effect, seemingly with significant power too!
"Never mind, having King Martial Power now is good enough!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Ye raised the Wind Attribute King Realm behind him, and instantly, fierce winds howled, sweeping out like knives, enveloping an area ten miles round in raging winds, obscuring vision with flying sands and stones.
Amidst this, Xiao Ye stood like a mighty overlord in the wind, releasing terrifying pulses.
At this moment, beasts enveloped by the violent wind naturally sensed a terrifying suppression emanating from Xiao Ye, causing their massive bodies to tremble, fear flickering in their eyes.
This was Emperor's Power!
Though diluted countless times, it was unchangeable.
Xiao Ye didn't notice this at all. At this moment, he channeled all Wind Attribute King Martial Power into the Xiao Blade, raising it high and slashing forward.
Crash!
Immediately, the ferocious beasts struck by the sharp sword light were all cut in two, vast amounts of beast blood staining the ground red.
"Junior Brother Xiao Ye..."
Seeing the awe-inspiring might of Xiao Ye, the fifteen devilish disciples were dumbfounded.
At this moment, Xiao Ye appeared immensely majestic, even feeling unfamiliar to them.
"Follow me!" Xiao Ye's eyes sparkled with divine radiance, the Wind Attribute King Martial Power coursing through him, giving him a sense of extreme fulfillment, war intent surging uncontrollably.
Leading the charge forward, any blocking beasts were swiftly killed with a single slash.
The beasts seemed frightened, neither dodging nor evading, allowing Xiao Ye to slice through them like cutting through vegetables.
In just half a stick of incense's time, Xiao Ye and the fifteen devilish disciples worked together to break out of the encirclement of King Martial Realm ferocious beasts at the plains' edge, reaching the central region.
"Xiao Ye, you brat, finally caught up!"
