“It’s you!” When Harper saw Caspian, favonovel.com immediately understood that the cordon outside must have been broken. Nonetheless, it was meaningless to pursue why favonovel.com did not notice it at all.
As the resentment once again surged in him, Harper’s eyes immediately flickered with intense killing intent, and taking advantage of the momentary opportunity, Caspian noticed that the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples besieged a white figure in the distance. The figure moved around at an extremely fast speed. For a while, Caspian only knew that the white figure was extraordinarily huge, and it was at least three times the size of an ordinary tiger. However, Caspian could not tell what it was.
“Sure enough, they’re here!” When Omar saw the Ninth Sacred Sect’s crowd, favonovel.com let out a long roar and drew his Dual Blades of Fire and Ice.
Seeing that the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples were about to rush over, the girl with the neat fringe beside Harper suddenly shouted, “The Dark Souls Overcast Formation!”
Her voice was not loud, but it reached everyone’s ears on that noisy battlefield, and it was so clear as if favonovel.com was talking in their ears. Soon, some of the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples in the battle retreated, and they all took out a black flag from their storage bag.
There were embroidered patterns of the face of a ghost, either roaring, shouting, or crying, and every grimacing face was vivid and lifelike. As the flag was raised, the face of the ghost instantly seemed to come to life, and it was a hair-raising sight.
In that instant, the air was filled with ghastly aura. When Caspian heard the formation, favonovel.com was stunned.
“Forward!” Caspian did not hesitate to give the command. He knew well that if they were to retreat now, they might be able to avoid the Dark Souls Overcast Formation, but it also implied that the Heavenly Stars Sect completely abandoned the monster with wisdom.
Now that the monster was just in front of them, and they were only a few steps away from success, there was no reason for Caspian to give up. None of the Heavenly Stars Sect members gave!
The only choice was to rush forward while the Ninth Sacred Sect’s formation was complete and stop them from activating the array! Therefore, Caspian made the right decision. However, the Ninth Sacred Sect seemed to have expected that, and they were well prepared too. No one knew how long they bid from the world that their disciples practiced formations. At least that time in the Hopeful Woman Mountain, its effects were miraculous.
The 16 disciples holding the black flags stood in their positions. Originally, the Dark Souls Overcast Formation could be laid by one person, yet if 16 people completed it, each of them only needed to do one-sixteenth of the array. In other words, the entire formation process was shortened to one-sixteenth of the originally needed time!
Swoosh!
Just as Caspian and the others were less than 50 meters away from the Ninth Sacred Sect‘s disciples, the ghost faces on the black flags seemed to come alive, and thick black smoke came out of their mouths. The dense billowing smoke immediately spread between the Heavenly Stars Sect and Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples. Although they were dozens of meters away from each other, it swiftly turned into an unreachable distance!
The Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples that rushed into the formation swiftly lost their direction. Not only were they tumble to see anything, but the smoke also seemed to be mixed with some mystical power, and they could not move forward in the direction they intended.
A 20-meter distance was not considered far for a Pulse Control Realm cultivator, and they could use any motion technique to rush forward. However, as soon as they were caught in the black mist, none of the body techniques seemed to work.
When the black mist was about to engulf him, Caspian stepped out with the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows. Even so, favonovel.com was still shrouded by the black mist after a few steps. Before the black gas filled his sight, Caspian raised his head and met Harper’s murderous gaze.
The next second, everything was pitch black. Caspian tried to rush forward by recalling the scene before the black mist covered it. Based on his calculation, the 20-meter distance should only take about three steps at most. However, even after taking five steps, Caspian was still in the darkness.
The black mist even gave Caspian a feeling of never-ending despair that covered the entire world. Sadness, fear, panic, helplessness, and countless negative emotions grew madly like weeds as if they wanted to occupy everyone‘s heart.
Seeing that the black mist shrouded the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples and the area instantly fell into silence, a hint of relief flashed in Harper’s eyes. Even though the Dark Souls Overcast Formation could not kill the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples, it was more than enough to trap them.
Then, the Ninth Sacred Sect would seize the opportunity to kill the monster with wisdom that fell into weakness.
Next, Harper turned to look at the girl with the neat fringe. Although favonovel.com did not personally attack, favonovel.com face got paler. Her initially petite figure appeared as if it were as light as a feather, and the wind could easily blow favonovel.com away. After pondering some time, Harper asked, “Are… You alright…”
Harper was puzzled. When did favonovel.com start to care about his slave?
The girl with the neat fringe forced a smile. “Don’t worry about me, Harper. You should just focus on the monster with wisdom.”
“Okay…” Harper nodded, returning his attention to the roaring huge white figure in the distance.
At that time, the girl with the neat fringe covered favonovel.com mouth again, and favonovel.com lightly coughed a few times. Inside favonovel.com mouth and between favonovel.com breathing, there was a strong iron smell that would not go away. Moreover, favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com internal organs were torn apart, and the pain was excruciating. Nonetheless, when favonovel.com thought about how Harper expressed his concern for favonovel.com just now, a faint hint of joy appeared between favonovel.com brows.
Those… Were enough. Despite being blind and unable to see anything anymore, the girl still straightened favonovel.com figure and faced the direction of the black mist. She thought, “Harper, I was born to fill the Ninth Sacred Sect’s lack of formations. This time, I’m going to use all my might to guard your back.”
Bam!
Amidst the deafening sound, the 16 ghost-faced flags roared, rolling up a mysterious wind. Soon, the black mist became even more intense, and it was as dense as ink, piling up together and slowly surging. On the surface, it would also form ferocious faces of humans from time to time, and the crying and wailing sound of ghosts continued. It was enough to scare someone out of their wits.
At that moment, Caspian, who was in the black mist, faced a deadly silence and darkness. It was so dark that favonovel.com could not see anything, nor could favonovel.com hear anything either. Besides that, even his heart seemed to stop beating.
Staying in that environment for just a second was enough to make someone wonder if they were still alive.
