Ji Tongzhou exhausted his spiritual energy, causing hundreds of fireballs to slightly veer away from Ye Xiu and the others before crashing down, his power spent.
Finally, the uncontrolled fireballs fell like shooting stars, crashing down with great force!
To those in the Spirit Heart Realm, these hundreds of fireballs were deadly.
For those above the Spirit Jade Realm, they were ultimate techniques that one would not dare to confront head-on! To withstand them would mean certain injury!
The Three Jade Formation of Maple Whisper Tower also dared not endure the damage from these hundreds of fireballs, so they dispersed and sought to evade the attacks.
At this moment, the members of the Hehuan Sect all drew their weapons—the Heavenly Umbrella!
The Hehuan Sect was a sect without men. Although it was one of the Eight Major Sects, it was not an ancient sect; rather, it was viewed as a disgraceful sect by those ancient sects with millennia of heritage.
The Hehuan Sect had acquired a cultivation method from somewhere that required engaging in lewd acts to extract all of a man's spiritual energy and yang essence, converting it into their own cultivation.
Such wicked practices were surprisingly recognized by the Dao Alliance, allowing them to become one of the eight major sects!
Those lecherous cultivators often took pleasure in women, but if they made a mistake and were punished by their sect to go to the Hehuan Sect, most of them would commit suicide on the way. The pain of becoming a lifeless husk was a hundred times worse than a quick death by their own hand!
Most cultivators of the Hehuan Sect resembled courtesans, possessing enchanting figures and alluring bosoms, dressed in ways that made men's hearts race. Thus, their weapon was a beautiful flower umbrella!
However, those who knew better dared not look at the Hehuan Sect's flower umbrellas. All cultivators now understood that aside from swords from Xianxia Sect, an entire sect wielding a single type of weapon meant only one thing: the Hehuan Sect's umbrellas!
The Heavenly Umbrella could open to deflect damage and close to become a spear for attacking enemies. Such a versatile weapon was not something one could easily gaze upon.
The team from the Hehuan Sect opened their umbrellas together, bracing against the fireballs. Many from Maple Whisper Tower rushed toward the Hehuan Sect, hoping for protection under the Heavenly Umbrella while also wanting to get closer to those wielding it.
Their beauty was indeed captivating; otherwise, how could cultivators from Maple Whisper Tower in the Spirit Heart Realm still fantasize about getting close to them even as death approached?
As fireballs fell, the Heavenly Umbrella effortlessly blocked them. However, when larger fireballs descended, those beneath the umbrella were directly burned to death.
The Heavenly Umbrella was not a divine artifact, nor was it a defensive weapon. Therefore, while it could withstand fireballs, it certainly could not stop the massive fireballs conjured by the black talismans.
Dozens of large fireballs rained down, hitting only three disciples from the Joyous Union Sect and a few others from the Maple Whisper Tower who were trying to evade them.
The last fireball struck directly at the mid-level leader of the Maple Mist Tower in the Spirit Jade Realm. However, he did not avoid it because he couldn't; rather, he chose not to dodge—it was too much trouble!
The Maple Mist Tower leader remained completely unscathed despite being hit by the fireball.
After this rain of fire, the battlefield resembled a scene of disaster—some lay dead, others wounded. Those still standing were all at the pinnacle of cultivation. The disciples of the Joyous Union Sect who had not been struck by the fireballs were also unharmed.
A few disciples from the Maple Whisper Tower stood intact, leaving everyone to wonder about their incredible luck in evading all the fireballs.
At this point, victory and defeat were clear!
Ye Xiu's group was in dire straits; one had lost all spiritual energy, Ji Tongzhou had collapsed from exhaustion and injury, leaving only Tang Luor, a junior in the Spirit Jade Realm, still able to fight. However, their opponents included dozens of upper-level Spirit Heart Realm members led by Luo Luo, along with the unharmed mid-level leader of the Maple Mist Tower and other equally matched members from the Maple Whisper Tower and Joyous Union Sect!
It was evident that victory was no longer within reach!
Lying on the ground, Ji Tongzhou grabbed Ye Xiu's arm and whispered, "You... take this. Place the Black Talisman at Dry Position, Departure, Kun Position, and Kan Position centered around us four! Hurry."
Ye Xiu took the Black Talisman; it was his first time handling this mysterious object. As he felt its immense power, he noticed it bore some resemblance to the Spirit Void Jade Pendant.
"Dry Position!"
Ye Xiu placed the Black Talisman at Dry Position but was surprised to find that six Yellow Talismans had already been set there!
"What is this?"
Ji Tongzhou smiled weakly. "I left us a backup plan... cough cough..."
Ye Xiu quickly arranged the remaining three Black Talismans. However, after placing the last talisman down, there was no reaction at all.
"What are you still struggling for? Just surrender obediently!"
"This younger brother is quite handsome. How about I borrow him for a while once we catch him?" the Harmonious Sect Leader said with a sarcastic tone.
"Hmph!" Maple Mist Tower Leader snorted coldly.
"Oh, come on, is it really that serious? I'm just joking! Besides, if I borrow him, I'll definitely return him to you in perfect condition." The woman glanced at the Maple Mist Tower Leader's gloomy expression and added, "How about you keep me company later?"
Hearing this from the Harmony Sect, Maple Mist Tower Leader chose to ignore them completely.
Realizing it was pointless to continue, the Harmonious Sect Leader squatted down to wipe the dust off the face of a disciple from Maple Whisper Tower who had been killed by a fireball. With a playful expression, she licked her upper lip. Leaning down, her lips gently met those of the deceased disciple, and then visible spiritual energy surged into her body. The body of the dead disciple slowly shriveled up until it became a mere husk.
Witnessing this scene, Ye Xiu and his companions were even more convinced of the evil cult label attached to the Harmony Sect. The Maple Mist Tower Leader turned a blind eye to it; clearly, whether they committed suicide midway or were sent to the Harmony Sect, the fate of their disciples was always the same!
Facing Ye Xiu and his group of lambs ready for slaughter, neither the Harmony Sect nor Maple Whisper Tower feared their escape. From the very beginning of the battle, they had already notified their respective sects, and more reinforcements were on their way.
The three individuals with the highest cultivation levels approached Ye Xiu and his companions.
"I've set everything up. Why isn't it activating yet?" Ye Xiu asked anxiously.
"Uh... maybe it's because they want me dead! At this moment, I don't even have a hint of spiritual energy to activate the formation!"
"What is 'the spirit of activation'?"
"It means spiritual energy!!!"
"Can I use mine?"
"No! You haven't studied formations. The spiritual energy required for all formations is extremely subtle. If you act recklessly without learning, you could suffer a backlash from the formation, which could directly harm your soul! The consequences are unimaginable!"
"But right now, it's certain death anyway! I might as well give it a try!" Ye Xiu said firmly.
"Alright! This formation is called the Four Symbols Formation, a simplified version of it. The talismans are already laid out. Now, you need to sit at the center of the formation and channel a small amount of spiritual energy into the ground. Then, precisely control the energy to touch the four talismans at each direction. First, divide it into six branches, then combine them into one, directing it into the central Black Talisman. That will complete the setup! However, controlling the spirit energy at the start of this formation is extremely difficult. Simply put, you need twenty-four branches of spiritual energy. Do you understand?"
Ji Tongzhou overestimated Ye Xiu's abilities.
After hearing this, Ye Xiu felt completely lost...
"This..."
Clearly, Ye Xiu had no idea what to do and was unable to accomplish it...
It's over...
He felt like he wanted to die...
