"Hehe, brat, do you really think you can injure me with your pathetic cultivation? Don't even dream about it!" The cloaked man laughed sinisterly.
He wore a smug expression, yet inside he didn't dare to relax for a moment. As the black tentacles danced around him, he blocked all the killing intent and flying knife attacks, carefully protecting the Seeking Spirit Bug in front of him.
Right now, the Seeking Spirit Bug was the only key to breaking this formation, so how could he allow it to be in danger?
Qin Chen's heart sank. Due to time and materials, the killing array he set up was merely an ordinary Fifth Level killing array. It might work against a regular Fifth Level Wuzong, but it was lacking against a late-stage Wuzong like the cloaked man.
Moreover, his flying knife attacks were also based on his Fifth Level mental power release, and in terms of power, they couldn't harm the opponent.
If this continued, once the Seeking Spirit Bug found the key to the formation and the opponent broke the array, it would be troublesome.
If this had been before the assessment in Ancient South City, Qin Chen might have had no other choice but to escape again on the Iron Feather Eagle. However, after passing the Ancient South City inheritance, Qin Chen now sneered to himself.
"Do you think hiding in your shell makes you safe?"
With a mocking laugh, Qin Chen raised his hand, and a powerful soul force immediately fused into the mysterious rusty sword.
Inside the formation, the cloaked man's biggest concern at this moment was whether Qin Chen would escape on the Iron Feather Eagle. If that happened, who knew when he would catch up again? Yet to his surprise, Qin Chen not only didn't escape but instead raised the rusty sword in his hand.
"This kid, could he be planning to enter the formation to fight me?"
The cloaked man felt a sudden joy in his heart. If that were the case, it couldn't be better. As long as Qin Chen entered the formation, he would have the ability to directly capture him, and there would be no need to even break the formation.
However, before his joy could settle, he was stunned.
After raising the mysterious rusty sword, Qin Chen didn’t enter the formation but instead thrust the rust sword violently into the formation.
Is this kid crazy? Throwing his weapon into the formation, thinking that would injure me? The cloaked man felt bewildered, but the next moment, a sense of crisis rose sharply within him.
Whoosh!
The mysterious rusty sword entered the formation, and its speed suddenly increased, transforming into a streak of light, slashing down fiercely at him. With a "puchi," one of the cloaked man's black tentacles was cut off by two-thirds, nearly severed in two.
What’s going on? Before the cloaked man could react to what had happened, he saw the sword light flash and unexpectedly soar into the air again, aiming directly at the Seeking Spirit Bug in his hand.
"Not good!" Although he didn’t understand what was happening, the cloaked man had no time to hesitate. He immediately protected the Seeking Spirit Bug, and with another "puchi," this sword, brilliant with sword light, directly severed half of the cloaked man’s tentacle, striking against the shield surrounding the Seeking Spirit Bug, nearly splitting it in half.
The cloaked man was taken aback; what a terrifying attack! At this moment, he no longer had time to react to how Qin Chen could control the rusty sword to attack from the air, and he had to engage in battle with the sword controlled by Qin Chen.
Puchi puchi puchi puchi...
A large number of sword lights continued to illuminate, and under the swirling sword lights, the cloaked man kept defending, astonished in his heart. What kind of sword technique is this? How could it allow him to fight in mid-air? Is there any heavenly principle left?
What shocked the cloaked man even more was that the sword light was extremely powerful. Although it was also a form of aerial manipulation, the intensity was simply incomparable to the previous flying knife attacks; the difference was too great.
