Stop Trying

As soon as Lin Ran finished speaking, a Taiji pattern spread out from the Yin-Yang Sword and instantly enveloped an area of a hundred steps!

“Xiao Shun! Stay away!”

Lin Ran shouted at Xiao Shun and the others, who were maintaining neutral. Then, the Yin-Yang Sword was replaced by Thunderball Sword. With a flash, he disappeared on the spot!

At the same time, the white-robed youths facing Lin Ran immediately took action.

Someone shouted, “Split up.” The team of nearly 200 people immediately split into a few groups.

Among them, there was a group made up of 30 people The weakest among them was at the sixth level of the Grandmaster Realm. These 30 people surrounded Liu Ruxi in the middle. Then, they turned into a thick fog and, together with Liu Ruxi, flew towards the place where the Taiji pattern had yet to reach.

Although the remaining people had lower cultivation, they had the advantage in numbers. As their clothes fluttered, white figures rose up and instantly blocked Lin Ran’s way in and out.

As long as they could stall for a few seconds, their companions could bring Liu Ruxi away. This was the best method they could think of when facing an opponent with a cultivation far higher than theirs.

Outside the Taiji pattern, Xiao Shun and the others couldn’t help but gasp when they saw Lin Ran being surrounded by more than a hundred people.

Unfortunately, they had underestimated the gap in strength between Lin Ran and the others.

Suddenly, a few small electric arcs suddenly flashed in the crowd.

Just as everyone was wondering what the electric arcs were, the electric arcs suddenly increased in size and almost instantly turned into a lightning dragon that roared ferociously and knocked everyone to the ground!

Boom!

A scorching air wave surged out, followed by a deafening bang.

At the side, Xiao Shun and the others were caught off guard and were pushed back dozens of feet by the air wave. After stabilizing themselves, their faces were filled with shock!

“He defeated more than a hundred grandmasters with a single strike… Is this the strength of a sixth level Half-Saint?”

Xiao Shun muttered with his mouth agape. He did not know that what would surprise him even more was yet to come.

As for Lin Ran,

After swinging his sword to knock everyone down, Lin Ran shot towards the surging fog like an arrow leaving the bow.

Even Lin Ran couldn’t help but exclaim at how fast they could travel under the envelopment of the Taiji pattern.

It had to be noted that these 30 people were only at the Grandmaster Realm. If they entered the Senior Grandmaster Realm in the future, or even the Half-Saint Realm like him, how terrifying would their speed be?

“The martial artists of the Great Yong Dynasty are indeed good at using the power of nature!”

Lin Ran thought to himself as he plunged into the thick “fog”.

Almost instantly, Lin Ran’s five senses were completely stripped away. All he could see was whiteness, and all he could hear was the sound of the 30 people moving at high speed.

Even if he used his divine sense to investigate, he could only sense an overwhelming number of figures. Even Lin Ran found it difficult to pinpoint Liu Ruxi’s exact location.

…

When Xiao Shun and the others in the distance saw Lin Ran plunge into the thick fog, their hearts were in their throats.

“He’s too rash!”

Someone from the neutral camp shouted anxiously, “The most powerful thing about this Cloud Concealment Array is that it can forcibly deprive people of their senses. Even if a Half-Saint barges in, he will inevitably get lost and be prone to get sneak attacked!”

Hearing this, Xiao Shun revealed a worried expression, but he still acted calmly and said, “But the Cloud Concealment Array needs 36 people to form completely. There are only 30 of them. Perhaps there’s still a chance…”

When he finished speaking, no one responded. It was obvious that no one believed this.

At this moment, the thick fog suddenly shook and surged even more violently. Before everyone could see what was going on, millions of sword energy shot out and instantly minced the fog into pieces!

This was not it—

The sharp sword energy tore through the cloud and shot out. As if controlled by someone, it turned in the air and continued to fly towards the remaining clouds.

After repeating it a few times, the fog dissipated, revealing Lin Ran. The 30 people were all knocked unconscious on the ground.

Liu Ruxi stood ten steps away from Lin Ran. The soft sword at her waist was almost unsheathed.

However, after seeing the situation in front of her, Liu Ruxi decisively sheathed her sword. Thin white gauze surged out of all the gaps in her armor, and her figure flew towards the distance!

“Brother Lin Ran! She’s escaping!”

Seeing this, Xiao Shun hurriedly reminded him loudly, but Lin Ran didn’t seem to hear him. He stood rooted to the ground with Thunderball Sword in his hand, his eyes flickering. It was unknown what he was thinking.

Seeing that Liu Ruxi, who had turned into a white shadow, was about to reach the edge of the Taiji pattern, Lin Ran suddenly smiled. “Can she escape?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sword energy that was flying in all directions immediately gathered together. Like a school of fish in the deep sea or a huge net that covered the sky, it enveloped Liu Ruxi!

Clang—

A sword energy cage instantly took shape. The powerful earth attribute internal energy contained in it caused the entire sword energy cage to emit a heavy dark golden luster.

However, even though she was trapped, Liu Ruxi did not surrender.

The white figure only paused for a moment before a cold light shot out. The figure turned into a high-speed spinning drill and collided with a certain point on the sword energy cage!

Boom!

With a loud bang, everyone even felt the ground under their feet tremble, but the sword energy cage was still intact.

The white figure in the cage paused for a moment before continuing to crash into another spot at an even faster speed and greater force!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

…

There were more than ten loud bangs in a row, but not only was the sword energy cage not damaged at all, but it also became more and more solid. Everyone could even see the vicious expression on Liu Ruxi’s face!

“Stop trying.”

Lin Ran slowly raised his head, his pale face looking a little weak. “This cage used up 60% of my internal energy. It’s impossible for you to break it.”

In the cage, Liu Ruxi began to shout crazily, but her voice was almost completely blocked by the condensed sword energy.

...

However, Lin Ran was able to read her lips and knew she was saying, “All of you will die!”
