Sun Haiwei’s attempt to trap him was commendable, but he was still a Martial Intent Realm cultivator.

He might have lost the initiative to Chu Jia, but Sun Haiwei was far from enough to be able to stop him! He circulated his inner qi and destroyed the layer of ice around his body.

His compass returned to his hand before anyone could react, and he looked in the direction of the needle as he advanced. He took steps forward, backward, left, and right. He would avoid the traps in Chu Jia’s formation every time he moved.

Sun Haiwei wanted to assist at the side, but she was unable to lock on to his figure to cause any effective damage.

All of a sudden, a loud blast filled the tunnel once again.

No one noticed when Shang Xia arrived beside Chu Jia’s formation, and his Delicate Jade River Sword pointed at Bai Luming’s approximate location. Bolts of lightning emerged from the tip of his blade and formed a net around Bai Luming.

Now, he had nowhere to run!

Luckily for him, Shang Xia had to increase the area his martial intent affected and the power contained in each bolt of lightning was weakened.

Bai Luming retrieved his array flag in his other hand. Shang Xia saw that he passed it to Ouyang Zhaiyuan before losing sight of Bai Luming in the Mountain and Sea Fantasy Spiritual World, but he didn’t know when he retrieved it.

Bai Luming waved the array flag above his head and it seemed to transform into an umbrella that shielded him from the lightning. Wherever he passed, the lightning would avoid him.

He wanted to sneer at Shang Xia’s attempt, but before he could do so, Shang Xia stepped into the range of the formation laid down by Chu Jia. The lightning web converged on Bai Luming’s location and when it finally faded, the tip of a blade greeted him!

The kid’s movement might seem slow, but Shang Xia’s actions seemed to have released the floodgates! A torrent of white sword light rained down on Bai Luming!

Now that he unleashed the Cloud Drizzle Rain Art again, it was different from the last time! He fused void and reality qi to unleash the strike, and every sword light seemed both illusory and real at the same time. It covered such a large area that his opponent would find it impossible to dodge!

Right before he was swallowed by the sword light, Bai Luming snorted loudly. A powerful gust appeared from the side, blowing apart the rain of sword light.

Ouyang Zhaiyuan! Why was it you again?!

Shang Xia couldn’t help but turn to look at the Martial Intent Realm expert who was attacked by both Shang Ke and Gu Shou. Due to the distraction, Shang Ke managed to take the chance to stab his spear deep into Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s back.

Ouyang Zhaiyuan vomited another mouthful of blood.

However, his attacks became even crazier the next moment.

As an explosion rang through the skies, Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s fist smashed into Gu Shou’s mace again. He forced Gu Shou to take three steps back, and his footprints were imprinted firmly into the ground.

Unfortunately, Shang Ke and Gu Shou had worked together too many times to count. The moment Gu Shou was forced back, Shang Ke stepped in to relieve the pressure. Gu Shou flipped the mace in his hands about and roared before rejoining the battle.

Shang Xia could tell that even if the two of them managed to kill Ouyang Zhaiyuan, they would have to exhaust a huge amount of their inner qi. They might even suffer from hidden injuries!

They definitely required outside help if they wanted to achieve a safe victory.

However, the three of them were at the peak of the Martial Intent Realm. The shockwaves of the battle alone ensured that Shang Xia and Sun Haiwei would never be able to join the battle.

The only person who could affect the outcome of the battle was Chu Jia, the rank three formation master!

Shang Xia wasn’t the only one who realized that point. Sun Haiwei could also tell that Chu Jia was the key to the battle.

The two of them seemed to reach an agreement. They yelled in unison and charged towards Bai Luming. As long as they dealt with him, Chu Jia would be able to join the battle on the other side.

The two of them might not be able to deal with someone as terrifying as Ouyang Zhaiyuan. However, they were confident they could at least do something about Bai Luming who was at the small completion stage of the Martial Intent Realm.

At that very instant, Chu Jia made a massive blunder.

When Shang Xia and Sun Haiwei went all in on Bai Luming to end the battle as quickly as they could, she directed the energy in her formation to interfere with the battle on the other side. In that split second, the suppression on Bai Luming weakened.

Despite his sorry appearance, Bai Luming was a rank three formation master! His talent might not be as high as Chu Jia, but he was still a formidable expert!

Previously, Chu Jia managed to suppress him continuously because she caught him off guard. Now that she directed some energy to interfere with the battle, Bai Luming immediately caught on to the opportunity. He dodged whatever sword light Shang Xia summoned and broke Sun Haiwei’s attempt to restrict him. He ran straight for the protection screen separating them from the Mountain and Sea Fantasy Spiritual World.

Slapping the compass in his hand, several jade shards stuck themselves onto the weakest points of the protection screen.

Pushing himself to the limit, Bai Luming circulated his inner qi to the extreme as he poured all his energy into those jade shards. The gap that appeared previously when Shang Xia escaped was opened up once again.

“Ouyang, we have to go!” 

Bai Luming knew how strong this fellow was. Now that he managed to open up a route of escape, he felt that Ouyang Zhaiyuan would definitely be able to push his enemies back and make his escape.

That was the confidence he had in his friend after so many years of working together!

As such, he jumped through the hole after giving the reminder. He no longer bothered with Shang Xia and Sun Haiwei who were cursing under their breaths.

Who would have thought that the protection screen would restore itself after half his body went through the hole? Once the protection screen was restored, Bai Luming was stuck in mid air. The upper half of his body was stuck on the side of the Mountain and Sea Fantasy Spiritual World, and the lower half was stuck in the tunnel! 

The sudden change in the situation caught Shang Xia and the others off guard, but Shang Xia could imagine the flustered expression on Bai Luming’s face.

“Hahahaha! I caught him! He actually fell for it! This is really fun!” Chu Jia’s laughter rang through the air all of a sudden, and it sounded a little jarring to the ears.

She actually treated it as a game!

The gap that allowed Bai Luming to escape her suppression was actually a trap, and the man jumped into it without any hesitation!

Even though Bai Luming was also a rank three formation master, he couldn’t discover anything wrong with the protection screen! Chu Jia created another layer outside it! That showed that Chu Jia was a much better formation master than him!

How long has it been since Chu Jia analyzed the protection screen? 

Even so, she managed to create another layer such that another rank three formation master wouldn’t be able to tell the difference! 

That was how terrifying the most talented formation master of the Tongyou Institution was!

She could even treat the entire battle as a game!

“Brother Luming!” 

Bai Luming’s mistake caused Ouyang Zhaiyuan to feel a sense of danger rapidly closing on him. Now, he would have to take everyone on himself!

“All of you deserve to die!” The genius cultivator of the Ouyang Family of the Rose Party unleashed everything he had.

“Crushing Mountain!” Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s first punch arrived. A soft glow covered his fist as it crashed against Gu Shou’s mace.

Gu Shou’s mace was flung out of his hands and a clear fist imprint could be seen on the low-grade weapon. Blood dripped from Gu Shou’s hand.

“Bang!” Shang Ke took the chance to sweep his spear into Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s chest, and the resulting crackling told him that he managed to break another two ribs.

“You should go to hell too!” Ouyang Zhaiyuan turned to Shang Ke and unleashed his second fist. 

“Breaking Current!” Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s fist intent surrounded Shang Ke.

“Suspended Spear!” Shang Ke’s expression was grave as he took on Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s second fist. The spear in his hand shot out and he seemed to become one with it. 

The instant the spear stabbed out, heaven and earth qi formed a giant spear that encased the actual spear body before the two strikes clashed.

A resounding blast ensued, and the giant spear formed from heaven and earth qi shattered. The actual body of the spear was revealed and it started to buzz softly. 

“Hahaha! What do you think? Your Suspended Spear is no match for my techniques!” Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s laughter filled the air. Shang Xia noticed a layer of seven-colored light surrounding him, but it seemed as though he didn’t see it! Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s gaze was locked on to Shang Ke.

Shang Ke sighed softly, “Indeed… My Suspended Spear is not your match. However…” Shang Ke tapped lightly at the fist light suspended in mid air and it popped like a bubble. “... Looks like you still lost!” 

“Yeah… I definitely lost this time…” A soft sigh left his lips.

Chu Jia was still using her formation to surround Ouyang Zhaiyuan. However, he didn’t seem to care in the slightest as a smile lit up his face. “In that case, I hope the two of you can experience my last strike!” 

“Ahem…” Gu Shou spat out a mouthful of blood and snorted, “Can you still unleash it?” 

“Without my last move, how can I be called Ouyang’s Third Fist?” 

After he spoke, Chu Jia exclaimed in shock. “He… He’s struggling free! How is he so strong?!” 

Shang Xia didn’t say a word as he summoned a bolt of red lightning to help Chu Jia.

Even so, Ouyang Zhaiyuan destroyed both the layer of seven-colored light and red lightning with a wave of his hand.

“Ha… My third fist! Killing God!” 

A terrifying pressure descended and threatened to crush everyone present. 

Shang Xia felt his thoughts stagnating, and time stopped around him.

“Stop him!” Shang Ke yelled, but his voice failed to make it into anyone’s ears.

As one of the only ones who could still move under Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s martial intent, a massive spear was condensed from the surrounding heaven and earth qi as it shot towards Ouyang Zhaiyuan. 

After sending out the spear, Shang Ke staggered and he nearly fell to the ground.

Gu Shou flicked his wrist and his other mace shot out towards Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s head.

When the two desperate strikes flew to meet their target, Shang Xia felt the suppression around him loosen. Everything returned to normal.

That was also the instant Shang Ke’s spear stabbed straight through Ouyang Zhaiyuan’s chest. His brain was also turned into mush when Gu Shou’s mace struck him.

Even though the danger had passed, a frown formed on Shang Ke’s face.
