It must be said that the Boss's methods are quite remarkable. The Purple Cocoon Vitality Shield is of an unknown level of martial arts, and despite the combined efforts of Cold Moon, Yun'er, and Duan Liu attacking for a long time, there is not the slightest sign of it breaking.
However, their prolonged assault did not lead to any exhaustion on their part, successfully stalling the Boss and giving Ye Tian more time to gather the Bagua Thunder Seal.
"These youngsters are truly exceptional; they have managed to hold on for such a long time without showing any signs of discouragement or flaws," thought the Boss. In reality, not much time had passed, but if it were anyone else, the three of them would have likely felt disheartened by their inability to shatter the shield.
Of course, he was unaware that this was merely Ye Tian's tactic to delay the enemy, while the real fatal strike was still brewing.
Whoosh!
The Bagua Thunder Seal had coalesced into the size of a grinding disc, emitting a clear sound as the surrounding space seemed to tremble violently.
This was a sign that the Bagua Thunder Seal had reached its limit. After all, it was just a low-level first-tier martial art, yet in Ye Tian's hands, its power was comparable to a low-level fifth-tier technique; one could not ask for too much.
Moreover, with Ye Tian's current strength, gathering five full rounds of the Bagua Thunder Seal was not an issue as long as he had enough time.
Thus, he did not mind using his strongest move to test the enemy since they still had formations as a backup.
Whoosh!
The Bagua Thunder Seal was launched with great force, and Yun'er and the others immediately withdrew their attacks. However, they deliberately created an illusion of weakness while retreating, giving the Boss a false sense of their fatigue.
"Good, now's the time!"
Boss had indeed fallen into the trap, letting out a triumphant roar as the purple silk of Martial Origin Power unraveled, revealing its true form in an instant.
He had already locked onto his target in his mind, that ethereal-looking individual. However, it was clear she was disguised as a man, and it would be a pity to kill her. After all, if she were truly a woman, she would possess an unparalleled beauty.
Boss was lost in chaotic thoughts, but when it came time to strike, he could not show any mercy.
With a powerful thrust of his arms, the surging Martial Origin Power erupted forth. Just as he was about to unleash it, a brilliantly glowing Bagua Seal Diagram came rushing toward him.
Boss immediately gasped in surprise; with his years of combat experience, he recognized the extraordinary nature of this move at a glance.
However, he was still a Martial Unity Expert, and both his adaptability and formidable strength were not to be underestimated.
Bang!
At the critical moment, he crossed his arms in front of him, and the purple light surged violently as he pushed forward.
Boom!
Almost simultaneously, the Bagua Thunder Seal unleashed a Thunderous Sound right in front of him, less than half an inch away. The sound was so intense it nearly shattered his eardrums and left him dazed.
Crash...
The wooden house behind him was instantly shattered by the raging Shockwave, splintering into pieces and collapsing with a thunderous roar.
Although Boss managed to block this deadly blow, he was still sent flying backward. Nevertheless, being a Martial Unity Expert, he maintained control during his retreat, leaving long drag marks on the ground with his feet.
"Is that spiritual power!" The Boss, though surprised, remained composed and analyzed that the Bagua Thunder Seal contained spiritual energy.
"Don't give him a chance!" Ye Tianqing shouted as he rushed forward. At this moment, he was deeply shocked; the Bagua Thunder Seal, his strongest killing move, had failed to inflict any damage. The level of defense was truly terrifying.
It should be noted that the Boss had not had time to use any defensive martial arts just moments ago.
Moreover, the Boss had already broken free from his restraints. As soon as he roared, thousands of Brutes would likely rush to the mountaintop, making things extremely difficult.
Therefore, it was crucial to seize the opportunity. Even if they couldn't kill him, they needed to suppress him so that he wouldn't have a chance to speak.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Four figures darted like lightning towards the Boss. Cold Moon's Azure Moon Autumn Light Sword emitted waves of blue light, while Yun'er wielded the Treasure Light Sword Hilt, summoning a three-foot blazing Qi Blade. Duan Liu let out a low growl and revealed the Crimson Flame Mad Ape's True Form.
Black flames spread out, seemingly incinerating an entire area. The rolling heat waves felt as if they were coming from the depths of hell, instilling fear in everyone.
At this moment, although Duan Liu's Crimson Flame Mad Ape's True Form was still immature, it still left Ye Tian and the others momentarily stunned. "The power of the Crimson Flame Ape is indeed extraordinary; once fully developed, it will be no weaker than a Martial Unity Expert."
Whoosh!
Void Fire condensed in midair into a massive fireball that shot towards the Boss at incredible speed.
At this point, the Boss had stabilized his Footsteps and was about to roar to notify his subordinates when he felt a scorching wave hit him. A gigantic black fireball came crashing down from above.
"Damn it!" The Boss cursed inwardly. As a Martial Unity Expert and the leader of a thousand bandits at Huanggang Ridge, he was now being forced into such a desperate situation by these youngsters that he didn't even have a chance to speak. It was truly humiliating.
"Purple Cocoon Vitality Shield!"
The Boss chanted the incantation, and strands of purple Martial Origin Power began to wrap around him again, attempting to envelop him completely.
"Break!"
Just as the layers of purple Martial Origin Power surrounded him, Ye Tian suddenly shouted. The Boss immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly condensed the Martial Origin Power to protect his body and meridians.
Boom!
A loud explosion erupted around the Boss, causing his entire body to tremble. He feared that if he were even a moment late, he would be shattered by the immense force.
Ye Tian had refrained from triggering the Eight Trigrams Thunder Seal a second time, waiting for this very moment.
"This is bad!"
The Boss had blocked Ye Tian's 'sneak attack,' but he still had to face the onslaught of Void Fire, leaving him in a precarious situation.
The black fireball resembled a demonic eye, flickering with intense light, overwhelming the Boss with its ferocity.
"Huff..."
The others exchanged glances and sighed in relief. The Boss's strength had exceeded their expectations, but fortunately, they managed to resolve the situation without causing any major trouble.
"Haha, how about that?" Duan Liuyang said proudly, eager to take credit.
"Wait..." Ye Tian stared intently at the flickering black flames, his expression growing increasingly serious.
"Don't worry, he was engulfed by the Void Fire without any defenses, there’s absolutely no reason for him to survive," Duan Liu said, patting his chest. He had personally experienced the aftermath of the Void Fire. Moreover, in past confrontations, there had indeed been no cases of anyone surviving after being completely enveloped by the Void Fire without any defenses.
"Be careful!" Ye Tian suddenly pushed aside Duan Liu, who was standing at the front.
Almost simultaneously, the black fireball exploded, scattering like falling meteors in all directions.
Then, the Boss's disdainful and sinister laughter echoed, "A few kids, do you really think you can kill me like this?"
Amidst the flames and black smoke, the Boss's figure gradually emerged, surrounded by a layer of deep purple light, mysterious and ethereal.
Ye Tian and the others furrowed their brows; they truly did not expect the Boss's strength to have reached such a level.
"Cough cough..."
The Boss laughed for a moment before suddenly clutching his chest and coughing violently. Only then did they see that his hand had been burned to a withered bone, and the clothing on his upper body had been completely incinerated, revealing charred skin underneath that resembled that of a corpse.
However, even in this state, he was still terrifying because it further proved that he had not completely blocked the Void Fire. After being burned, he was still able to remain unyielding; his strength was indeed unfathomable.
Moreover, judging by his charred upper body and intact lower body, it was clear that he had managed to control the spread of the Void Fire at the last moment, minimizing the damage.
"Form up!"
At this point, they had no choice but to bring out their trump card; otherwise, if this old monster regained his composure, everything would become uncertain.
The four individuals shared a deep connection, and as soon as the words left their mouths, they each took their positions, radiating light as the Four Sacred Beasts manifested.
"I didn't expect you to have an Esoteric Buddhism formation; I underestimated you..." The Boss exclaimed in surprise, followed by a violent cough.
To be honest, he was already at his limit. Although he had the ability to control the Void Fire, it was still too late, and some of the flames had invaded his heart veins. If he couldn't find a way to remedy this in time, he feared his life would soon come to an end.
However, given the current situation, he had no chance or time to save himself.
Thus, he could only gamble with his life. If he couldn't eliminate these young ones at the last moment, he would have to resort to a self-destruct attack, hoping for mutual destruction.
With that thought, the Boss calmed down. His heart veins were injured, preventing him from shouting loudly. Even if given the chance, he wouldn't call out because he knew that with the formation activated by his opponents, none of his subordinates would be able to help.
Atop the mountain peak, in the Square Area of Hundred Zhang, there was little room for many people. Once the formation was established, its power enveloped a vast area, creating an impenetrable barrier. Therefore, even if his subordinates rushed over, they would only be blocked at the entrance to the peak and gradually eliminated. There was no need to call them over to their deaths.
"Attack!"
Ye Tian shouted loudly, his voice echoing across the mountains and fields. He could see that the Boss was already at his limit; it was time to draw all the mountain bandits in.
Roar!
The Azure Dragon roared, followed by the Vermilion Bird's cry, the White Tiger's roar, and the Black Tortoise's low rumble.
The four Sacred Beasts merged into one entity, transforming into a stream of four-colored light that carried the supreme power of the formation and charged towards the Boss.
"I never expected this!" The Boss sighed skyward. He had traversed life for so long and never imagined he would meet such an end.
"You all can die too!"
He shouted wildly, and his body was suddenly burst apart by the surging Martial Origin Power, accompanied by a loud bang as the Shockwave swept out.
Ye Tian had long anticipated that he would self-destruct, and in that moment, golden light enveloped him as the Crimson Dragon Power activated, resembling someone clad in Golden Battle Armor, standing in front of several people.
Boom!
The Shockwave from the Boss's self-detonation first collided with the four-colored Brilliant Light, causing the entire mountaintop to tremble violently, and the ground began to crack.
The two forces clashed, and the residual energy still surged toward Ye Tian and the others.
However, residual energy is just that; it was already difficult to cause them harm. The group floated back, with Ye Tian covering their retreat as they rushed down the mountain.
At the same time, a thunderous sound erupted, and from the mountaintop, a massive crack spread across the mountainside.
