Chapter 281 The Crisis of Kunlun Ruins!
Bloodbath at Kunlun Ruins
Dark clouds loomed over Kunlun Ruins, exuding a murderous aura!
The dense, black aura felt almost tangible, pressing heavily on everyone's hearts.
Even the wind carried a biting chill, swirling the rubble from the ruins of the Lingxu Sect as it howled past, making a mournful sound.
It was as if they were wailing for the impending bloody battle.
Ye Fan, Shen Jianxin, Wu Xusong, Yao Guang, and Mo Jin stood side by side.
His spiritual power, demonic energy, and wrathful demonic power all erupted, intertwining to form an invisible barrier.
The group stared intently at the distant horizon—where countless dark shadows were rapidly approaching.
They blotted out the sky, like a locust swarm passing through, completely blocking out the sunlight.
Wei Yu stood beside the group, his spiritual energy still carrying the rawness of someone who had just broken through to the first level of the Breakthrough Realm.
The bloodstains on his palms had long since dried, and the grief in his eyes was replaced by extreme vigilance.
He knew that his strength was unstable at the moment, and staying might really be a burden.
"They're here! The hunters' army has really arrived!"
Wu Xusong's body crackled with lightning, and a thin lightning snake coiled around his arm.
His gaze was fixed on the distance, his tone grave: "The numbers are far too many, several times more than we anticipated!"
Everyone looked up and felt a chill run down their spines.
On the horizon, a dark mass of hunters surged in like a tide.
Some held long, black knives, while others brandished long whips covered in barbs, their bodies emanating an eerie black aura.
The roars and howls rose and fell, clearly audible even from thousands of meters away.
The dense aura of death almost swallowed up the entire Kunlun Ruins.
In the ruins of the Lingxu Sect, the disciples and medical staff who were still healing turned pale and trembled when they heard the terrifying roar.
Some even curled up in despair, their eyes filled with hopelessness.
They had just survived a major battle and were already battered and bruised. Faced with this endless army of hunters, they had no power to resist.
"Don't be afraid, everyone! We're here, and we won't let these scum hurt you!"
Ye Fan held the energy gun, its body radiating a dazzling blue light, and his spiritual energy surged wildly around him.
His voice was strong and clear as he tried to calm the crowd, but his own brow was furrowed tightly.
He knew that the army of hunters in front of him numbered at least tens of thousands, including many powerful individuals at the seventh level of the Breakthrough Realm.
On their side, although they had a large number of ships, they were powerless against the swarming hunters who resembled locusts.
Shi Si has not yet arrived. With only him, Shen Jianxin, Wu Xusong, Yao Guang, Mo Jin, and Wei Yu, who has just broken through and whose strength is unstable, it would be extremely difficult to defend this place!
Shen Jianxin gripped the longsword tightly, its sword energy surging and slicing through the air, leaving behind fine cracks.
His eyes were icy cold, filled with murderous intent: "Enough with the nonsense, let's start the battle!"
"Yaoguang, you used the power of the Wrathful Demon to restrain the mid-level hunters!"
"Mo Jin, use the Emperor's Sail (Ten Thousand Soul Banner) to devour those low-level trash!"
"Wu Xusong, you're in charge of clearing out the aerial predators!"
"Ye Fan and I faced off against the high-level hunters head-on!"
"Okay!" they all replied in unison, their voices firm and unwavering.
Mo Jin gripped the Myriad Souls Banner tightly, his body surging with demonic energy. Countless remnant souls wailed on the banner, and eerie black mist spread out.
A maniacal smile crept across his face, yet a hint of solemnity lingered: "Don't worry, those low-level trash aren't even enough to fill the gaps in my Myriad Soul Banner's teeth!"
"However, there are too many hunters; I'm afraid my demonic energy won't last long!"
Yao Guang's demonic power surged, a dark aura enveloped him, and his handsome face was filled with coldness.
He nodded slightly: "Restraining mid-level hunters, no problem!"
"But we must keep a close eye on Wei Yu. He just broke through to the next level, and if he's targeted by the hunters, he'll surely die!"
All of them turned their gazes to Wei Yu, their eyes filled with worry.
Wei Yu clenched his fist: "I can fight!"
"Now is not the time to be willful!" Ye Fan said in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Your strength is still unstable. Staying here will only hold us back. Once the battle begins, you stay by Mo Jin's side and don't act on your own!"
"My lotus can help with defense, so the ships and the people of the Lingxu Sect won't be easily killed," Wei Yu retorted.
Just as the group was arguing, the hunters' army had already approached Kunlun Ruins.
They were less than a kilometer away!
"roar--!"
A deafening roar rang out.
The leading hunters' auras surged, revealing their breakthrough to the third and fourth levels.
Their eyes were cold as they stared intently at Ye Fan and the others, a cruel smile playing on their lips.
"Kill! Slaughter them all! Leave no one alive!"
The leader of the hunters roared and charged towards Ye Fan and the others.
Tens of thousands of hunters followed closely behind like mad dogs, forming a dark mass that instantly surrounded the entire Kunlun Ruins.
"Oh no! The war has begun!" Wu Xusong roared, and lightning surged around him.
A massive lightning dragon materialized and lunged at the hunters at the forefront.
"Ye Fan, Shen Jianxin, it's your turn to face them head-on!"
"good!"
Ye Fan and Shen Jianxin responded simultaneously, their figures flashing as they charged towards the leading hunter.
Ye Fan's energy gun instantly shot out a dazzling blue light, heading straight for a hunter at the fourth level of the Breakthrough Realm.
Shen Jianxin, wielding a longsword, unleashed a torrent of sword energy as he slashed at another hunter at the third level of the Breakthrough Realm.
Yao Guang's figure swayed, and the demonic power around her transformed into countless black palm prints, which slapped towards the mid-level hunters who were rushing over.
Each palm print carried a violent force, striking the hunter and instantly sending him flying, splattering black blood all over the ground.
Mo Jin waved the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand, chanting incantations.
Countless remnant souls flew out from the banners, rushing towards the low-level hunters.
Those remnant souls frantically devoured the souls of the hunters, and with each one they devoured, the demonic energy around Mo Jin intensified.
However, there were simply too many hunters, and the remnant souls could not keep up with the speed at which the hunters rushed in.
Wei Yu watched as the people fought valiantly, and as the hunters surged in like a tide.
His anxiety and anger grew stronger and stronger. He could no longer hold back. His spiritual energy surged, and he rushed towards a low-level hunter.
He conjured a palm print of spiritual energy in his hand and slapped it toward the hunter.
"Bang!"
The palm print landed on the hunter, who was instantly sent flying.
However, Wei Yu, due to his unstable strength, was also forced back several steps by the recoil, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Wei Yu!" Ye Fan caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye and his heart tightened.
Distracted, he was ambushed by a hunter nearby, and his arm was slashed with a long knife, leaving a deep wound.
Blood gushed out instantly, staining his sleeves red.
"Ye Fan!" Wei Yu felt a pang of pain in his heart, his eyes filled with guilt.
"This is not the time to apologize! Get back here right now!" Ye Fan roared.
He fired another beam of blue light from his energy gun, killing the hunter who had ambushed him.
However, the wound on his arm continued to bleed, and his spiritual energy began to become slightly disordered.
The situation suddenly became critical.
The hunters kept coming in, and they could not be killed indefinitely.
Although Ye Fan and his companions were powerful, they gradually found themselves struggling against the endless onslaught.
Shen Jianxin's longsword was now stained with black blood, and his breathing had become somewhat disordered.
The lightning around Wu Xusong gradually weakened, clearly indicating that he had consumed a large amount of spiritual energy.
Yao Guang's demonic power also began to become unstable, with the black aura around her sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
Mo Jin's Myriad Soul Banner is losing more and more remnant souls, and its demonic energy is being consumed at an enormous rate.
"This can't go on! There are too many hunters, we'll be worn down sooner or later!" Shen Jianxin roared as he killed the hunters around him.
Her voice was filled with anxiety: "Why hasn't Shi Si arrived yet? If he doesn't come soon, we won't be able to hold on!"
A sense of despair also rose in Ye Fan's heart.
He watched the Lingxu Sect disciples fall one after another around him, watched the figures of everyone fighting bloody battles, and watched the guilt and resentment in Wei Yu's eyes.
The feeling of powerlessness in my heart grew stronger and stronger.
He knew they wouldn't last much longer.
Once they fall, the entire population of Kunlunxu will be slaughtered by the hunters.
Just then!
"Boom—!"
