"A formation array!"
Lin Fei surveyed this blood-hued domain. The potent fluctuations of spiritual power instantly clarified his understanding it was an array formed by Qi cultivators.
"Lin Fei, stepping into our Five Directions Killing Array, arranged by five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, your death is certain!"
Within the bloody space, a chorus of voices echoed, yet Lin Fei couldn't discern their origins. Such was the nature of an array, Qi cultivators had methods to conceal their aura and location.
"Five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators. You truly hold me in high regard!"
Lin Fei's tone remained calm, his mind was equally serene. In such moments, one must maintain a cool head.
Since this Five Directions Killing Array was the collective effort of five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, it suggested that they hold considerable confidence to kill Lin Fei through this array.
"Cowards, come out!"
A glint flashed within Lin Fei's eyes.
"Boom."
Instantaneously, his saber intent erupted. Transcendent saber intent, mighty and overwhelming, blanketed the entire crimson expanse in an instant.
Lin Fei's saber intent wasn't intended to break the Five Directions Killing Array. It was to locate the positions of the five Qi cultivators. Only then could he execute them. Only by executing them, perhaps, could he break this array.
However, as Lin Fei unfurled his overwhelming saber intent, it proved to be of no avail. Even his saber intent seemed to be suppressed within a certain area.
This Five Directions Killing Array could even suppress saber intent!
"Hehe, Lin Fei, don't waste your energy. We're operating the array from outside the Five Directions Killing Array. Unless you can break the Five Directions Killing Array, otherwise, you can't touch us. However, you have no hope. Five Directions Killing Array, unleash the sword energy!"
As the words of the Qi cultivator fell, within the Five Directions Killing Array, strands of sword energy appeared. These strands of sword energy were finer than silkworm thread. This was the transformation of sword energy into the thread!
The sword energy appearing as fine as thread, it didn't seem very powerful. But in reality, transforming sword energy into thread could amplify the 'sharpness' attribute of sword energy to its peak. Its sole trait was sharpness, capable of slicing through everything!
Moreover, it wasn't a single thread, but the entirety of the Five Directions Killing Array filled with these Sword Threads. Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster within this Five Directions Killing Array would likely die instantly.
There would be no room for struggle. After all, a Grand Master's Innate True Qi hadn't yet reached the extent of withstanding so many Sword Threads.
"Saber energy encompasses the body!"
Yet Lin Fei exhibited not the slightest panic. With a flicker of thought, saber energy covered his entire body, leaving no crevices exposed.
"Hiss hiss hiss."
Subsequently, within the blood-colored space, the sky filled with Sword Threads began to slice at Lin Fei. Each strand of sharp sword energy, when cutting across Lin Fei, collided with the saber energy enveloping him. Instantly, the sword energy dissipated into nothingness. Swiftly, the sword energy within the blood-colored space was consumed completely.
At this moment, outside the Five Directions Killing Array, the faces of the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators darkened upon observing the situation within the array.
"'Immortal Slayer Saber' isn't easily killed, otherwise, why would it necessitate the five of us, top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, to form an array to surround and kill him?"
"Indeed, this was only the first killing array. The Five Directions Killing Array has a total of five killing arrays, each more formidable than the last."
"If the sword energy array can't kill him, activate the second killing array!"
With the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators urging the array, the entire Five Directions Killing Array underwent another transformation. The sword energy had already vanished. Next, the blood-colored space seemed to ignite. The entirety of the bloody space subtly turned a fiery red.
"Five Directions Killing Array, Blood Flame Kill!"
Lin Fei's internal Qi and blood seemed to tremble, faintly drawn by the surrounding bloody flames as if about to ignite. This was the Blood Flame Kill. Roaring flames of fire capable of reducing any person's blood to ash.
But Lin Fei's body was encompassed by saber energy and remained unshakeable. Unless his saber energy was broken, Otherwise, Lin Fei was impervious.
"Cold Ice Kill!"
"Bone Erosion Kill!"
Four consecutive layers of killing arrays, all powerless against Lin Fei. But Lin Fei hadn't taken action all this while. Because he hadn't discovered a weak point in the Five Directions Killing Array.
Just now, he had already used a few tactics, attempting to destroy the Five Directions Killing Array, but he found that he could not break it. Even Lin Fei's saber energy was formidable, it too had its limits.
When dealing with an array, as long as the weak point of the array was found, breaking the array becomes easy. Otherwise, even with ten or a hundred times the power, it was still not necessarily breakable.
"Four layers of killing arrays were unable to handle Lin Fei. It seems we can only resort to the final layer of the killing array. With this final layer of the killing array, Lin Fei is bound to die. Five Directions Killing Array, Heavenly Thunder Kill!"
Suddenly, the thunder rolled. A massive thunderbolt descended from the sky, directly bombing into the Five Directions Killing Array.
However, in this instant, Lin Fei immediately perceived the auras of the five Qi Condensation cultivators. The Five Directions Killing Array, upon the thunderbolt's bombardment, finally revealed a flaw.
At this moment, Lin Fei did not hesitate.
"Heavenly Saber Art, slash!"
"Boom."
Instantly, Lin Fei employed the Heavenly Saber Art.
Two hundred and fifty meters of saber energy, exuding terrifying power and following the direction of the thunderbolt's descent, which was the only flaw in the entire Five Directions Killing Array.
The "Heavenly Saber" condensed by Lin Fei, slashed down mercilessly.
"Boom."
The two hundred and fifty meters saber energy Heavenly Saber directly split the massive thunderbolt. Next, the overwhelming saber energy fiercely landed on the unobstructed killing array.
"Crack."
Finally, the unobstructed killing array shattered. The surrounding blood-colored space also disappeared.
Lin Fei's vision returned to normal. He saw stood five unfamiliar Qi Condensation cultivators before him. The fluctuations of spiritual power in their bodies were exceedingly terrifying. Clearly, they were all top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators.
"How could he break the Five Directions Killing Array, how is this possible?"
"The Five Directions Killing Array couldn't kill him!? How could he directly split the final Heavenly Thunder Kill with saber energy?"
"What a terrifying saber energy. Can a martial artist without a foundation stage be so strong?"
"The array has been broken, we can't kill him anymore, let's go!"
The five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, seeing that the situation was hopeless, immediately prepared to flee.
Under normal circumstances, if a Qi cultivator wanted to leave, a martial artist certainly couldn't hold them back. After all, Qi cultivators have magical artifacts, controlling magical artifacts allows them to directly ascend and fly.
And martial artists? Even a martial arts Grand Master cannot fly. Only upon achieving Martial Saint can one's body undergo a rebirth and then possess various martial arts divine abilities and walking on air would no longer be a difficult feat. But in the innate realm, the methods of martial artists were far inferior to those of these Qi cultivators.
The five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators were also quite decisive. They directly employed their magical artifacts and immediately turned into five streaks of rainbow light, attempting to escape.
If it were in the past, Lin Fei truly wouldn't be able to do anything about these five. However, Lin Fei's Heavenly Saber Art has now reached perfection. He did have a few tricks up his sleeve.
"Want to escape?"
Lin Fei's eyes narrowed slightly, his Saber Qi erupted once again.
"Heavenly Saber Art!"
"Hum."
With the implementation of the Heavenly Saber Art, two hundred and fifty meters of saber energy was again condensed in the void.
This is the Heavenly Saber. With the appearance of the Heavenly Saber, not only was there saber intent but also a peculiar power.
It was like a large net, instantly enveloping the bodies of the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators.
"Boom."
Immediately, the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators felt a jolt throughout their bodies. Even the spiritual power within their bodies was somewhat suppressed.
"What's happening?"
"Our spiritual power is being suppressed."
"What kind of technique is this?"
"Even the Martial Dao True Intent doesn't have this kind of capability."
The five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators were flustered. They couldn't escape!
"Is this the power of the Heavenly Saber under the state of perfection? Under the power of the Heavenly Saber, the enemy's strength will be suppressed. It's as if they're burdened by a heavy mountain. Want to escape? Their speed could be instantly slowed, enough for me to kill with one saber."
Lin Fei looked at the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, whose speeds sharply dropped.
Even though he was very shocked by the effect of the Heavenly Saber's power, Lin Fei didn't hesitate at all.
"Slash!"
Immediately, Lin Fei's saber energy divided into five, instantly slashing toward the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators.
"No..."
The five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators never expected that this would happen. Their attempt to surround and kill Lin Fei failed, and even escaping turned out to be a luxury.
Consequently, they let out terrified screams. They were all top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators. In theory, they all had the opportunity to establish their foundation. Who would want to die here?
"Pfft."
However, Lin Fei's saber energy didn't care about that. Each saber energy was more than thirty meters long.
With a slash of the saber, the bodies of the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators were cut in half by the saber energy.
With a "thud," they fell to the ground from mid-air. The five Qi Condensation cultivators fell.
Lin Fei, with a single saber, slaughtered the five top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators!
